Tell me a thing ...

... are you doing a student project? I see 3 or 4 new articles on Cape Town/SA libraries popping up this morning. Best, Sam ^Sing! 09:42, 12 July 2014

Its a project to create pages for all libraries - academic and public - in Cape Town. Everybody involved is sitting at UCT Library at this moment, trying to figure out the details of how to create pages. You'll probably pick up some odd entries :-)--Sforsyth123 (talk) 10:04, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

Like. (You indent messages with an initial : (colon) when replying. Reply to a reply, like me here, uses two colons, and so forth. ; (semi-colon) on the other hand makes the whole paragraph bold. Confused? Don't worry! ) Happy editing! Sam ^Sing! 10:56, 12 July 2014 (UTC)
