Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Alexander Pearce does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Dl2000 (talk) 04:28, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
- Nice work at that article! However, please don't remove text in the form <ref name="theage"/>, even if it does cause citation errors. When you replace such a reference, known as a named reference, move it up to a statement that still corresponds with it. Wikipedia's admittedly quirky reference system is explained at the page Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. Graham87 06:46, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
Hi Susan, I've renamed the article about Thomas to his actual name. As noted in the section above, it is strongly recommended that you provide an edit summary with every edit, to avoid misunderstandings like this. Edit summaries don't have to be lengthy ... just something like "expand" or "oops" is enough, sometimes, but when you're correcting something in an article, it's better to provide an extended edit summary, as you have done already, or make a note on the article's talk page. Feel free to contact me if you need more assistance. Graham87 06:19, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
