Welcome

[edit]

Hi Henry... I assume you are the Henry Hardy, long-time editor of Berlin's published works. If you are not, I request you choose a different username & if you are I suggest (though this is not a requirement) you list yourself at List of notable Wikipedians (for people who edit Wikipedia about whom Wikipedia has an article). Whatever the case may be, thank you for the edits you've made to the Berlin article. I assume you're new, so here are a few links I think you might find useful:

Please feel free to contact me via my talk page if you have any questions. Regards, Mikker (...) 19:44, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Henry... Just a quick note: when u leave messages on talk pages "sign" them by typing four tildes (~) in a row, like this ~~~~. This leaves your username & the date and time right after your post. Regards, Mikker (...) 17:40, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Noted and implemented. Should I have an alias, do you think? And how do you do a link so that you get the arrow but not the preceding number? Henry Hardy 18:37, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No, don't think an alias is necessary. Of course, it is completely your own decision. The second question I don't quite follow, what exactly do you mean? Mikker (...) 19:03, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Look at the Maurice Bowra entry, after "New Bats in Old Belfries": first there is a redundant "[1]", then an arrow. Can one have the latter without the former? If so, how? I'm sure I've seen this elsewhere. Henry Hardy 21:21, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Answering my own question: the "[1]" disappears if one puts the linked-from text within the [ ] containing the linked-to URL (this I've now done). Sorry for false alarm.RD 16:29, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Isaiah Berlin, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Independent (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Managing a conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Roughdown. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Henry Hardy, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the COI guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 11:52, 6 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Roughdown. I wonder do you have a source to support Magee's death? I am unable to find one on line. It's not usually appropriate to make that change to a bio article without one. But I see you are a good fairh editor of long-standing, so I did not want to revert you, in case you had one. Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 08:22, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. I have found one source here, so I expect more will appear soon. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:49, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Past Masters (book series), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Keith Thomas. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
