Hi mate, you might want to check out WikiProject AFL for all your footy needs. Drop us a line on my talk page with any questions. Which footy team do you follow btw mate? I'm guessing it's not Carlton ;). Cheers, Rogerthat Talk 03:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- The only contribution he seems to have made to footy is a pathetic troll on the Carlton page.Fat Red 10:01, 29 March 2006 (UTC) - I took offense to this when I read this message in my talk. That bit about CFC supporters being <insert derogatory term here> was not added by me - I must have edited the older revision to add the Blueseum link without checking. I don't take to being called a troll very well without case. Thehalford 20:39, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- I accept your apology :) Thehalford 00:47, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

As regards the good Mr. Wodehouse, I assumed it was a typo- I find it absurd beyond comprehension that he would see his parents only a couple of times during his entire childhood. Pope Guilty 03:15, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]Hello Fat Red! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 3 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Jake Niall - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Marc Murphy - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Ian Renard - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Sorry for misinterpreting your intention & I have removed the inappropriate message. I had understood he was commonly known as John, but you have cited reliable sources on his article to show that he is commonly known as Neil. It is inappropriate to include his full name on the list of judges, but I note that you have now corrected the article to list him as Neil Young. --Find bruce (talk) 00:05, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Supreme Court of the Northern Territory, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brian Martin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Maurice Nathan
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Draft:Maurice Nathan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/nathan-sir-maurice-arnold-14983. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.

[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

CS1 error on Donnell Ryan
[edit]Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Donnell Ryan, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 00:35, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Richard Niall & Xavier?
[edit]Thank you for your long-term commitment to Wikipedia and your recent edits adding Niall's name to the alumni lists in the 2 Xavier articles, however we have a hiccup here because there's no mention on his own article & a cursory Google search turns up no schooling details of any kind or a Xavier connection. I assume "good faith" editing here & that you have some sort of direct knowledge that's not immediately available. Could you please share this or suggest something we can all use as a citation or evidence. Thanks (in anticipation). Cheers! Bluevista99 (talk) 02:05, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
