Hello!

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks again for your first contributions to the project. I just thought I'd drop you a note to offer some guidance on those bishop articles you created, which I spotted while patrolling newly-created pages. I noticed you created the articles as basically an infodump of tables from catholichierarchy.org. While a site like that is ideal reference material to help verify the information in an article is correct, it would be better if the article was actually written as prose rather than a raw table alone. I've already converted one article, the one about James McGolrick, to show you what I mean. It has the same information, but set out in a more reader-friendly format. I've also categorized the article so it shows up alongside other similar articles (e.g. all other articles about American RC bishops), marked the article as a "stub" and added a "predecessor/successor" box that allows readers to easily browse back and forth through the line of people who held that position. If you could take the time to do this to your other articles (and any further articles you create), it would be a big help and would make the articles easier to find and read. If you need any guidance, you are welcome to leave a message on my talk page and I will lend a hand. ~Matticus ^T_C 10:48, 12 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to let you know that you inserted your username sig and talkpage as seen in this articleDIFF. You might want to use the Preview function or review your edit after posting. Although, we all make mistakes and I have done this on Wikipedia report pages. --Morenooso (talk) 15:35, 6 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
