I'm not at all sure I get the logic for changing the county in which Asquith died to Berkshire. He died in Sutton Courtenay, a town now in Oxfordshire. If I want to find his grave, that's the county I go to. I think it's just plain confusing to use the old county boundary. I've reverted your edit. If you want to put Berkshire back, could you discuss on the article Talkpage. Regards. KJP1 (talk) 00:30, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

I wouldn't agree, but by all means raise it on the Talkpage. KJP1 (talk) 12:17, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Hi.

When you update statistics please remember that you should also update the timestamps as of when the stats are correct. This is done by manually updating the date above or below the statistics table. By doing this we show when the stats were last updated and it prevents other editors from accidentally updating the stats again.

Please keep this in mind. Thank you. Qed237 (talk) 15:02, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi,

I see that you have made many edits to Chesterfield F.C.. The page seems vandalized to me, but I don't know enough about it to safely make corrections. I wonder if you could look at it?

Hi, when updating infobox stats you should update the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats, by adding five tildes (~~~~~), which generates the specific time the update was made. Thanks, Mattythewhite (talk) 15:57, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2017–18 Norwich City F.C. season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Fleck (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Dorchester, Dorset. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted.

Hi Samuel. You made a revert here with the edit summary "Edited for consistency. Most other articles are laid out in this way." I wonder do you mean "all UK bio articles", or possibly "all UK bio articles where the individual was born in Wales", or possibly "all UK bio articles where the individual was born and died in two different countries", or possibly something else? I'd also be interested to see your supporting evidence. I tried to ask in my edit summary if there was any WP:MoS policy on this. I'm now guessing, from your edit summary, that you are suggesting there is not. Many thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:17, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi, just regarding the Fawlty Towers episode, Communication Problems, which edition of the VHS do you have? Aefevans (talk) 15:28, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your reply. Interestingly, the VHS I was referring to is dated 1984 (the edition can be seen here: http://www.videocollector.co.uk/fawlty-towers---basil-the-rat/29477). Maybe it's something they rectified in that time? I'll have to dig out my copy. Aefevans (talk) 15:38, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. Welcome to Wikipedia! I just wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions were not quite right. When updating statistics within the infobox of a footballer, please make sure you update the timestamp at the same time, so that both readers and fellow editors know when the information was last updated.

You can do this by replacing the existing timestamp within the |club-update= or |pcupdate= parameter for club stats, or the |nationalteam-update= or |ntupdate= parameter for international stats. For articles that use a DMY date format, use five tildes (~~~~~), or for MDY dates, use {{subst:mdytime}}. This will generate the specific time the update was made.

If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you, Mattythewhite (talk) 22:04, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi,

on 23rd of January you reverted an addition of special bank holidays in the United Kingdom, with the change note that they were special holidays and not changes to existing ones.

But all other holidays listed there, were special holidays too, not changes to existing ones. After all, the category is called "Special holidays", wherefore I believe, that special holidays actually belong there. Could you please explain your revert more or add these additions back.

Hi Samuel, I have noticed your edits to British comedy-related articles and of your recent edit to the "Waldorf Salad" episode article of Fawlty Towers. Myself and the user Rillington have plans to reinstate the remaining Fawlty Towers episode articles in the near future, so I was wondering whether you might consider helping us with reinstating these articles (they are currently redirects). We have not started this collaboration yet, so, if you would like to help, I will ping you on your talk page when we are ready to begin. Please let me know what you think.

Hi @Samuel J Walker: Why are you going around changing postcode districts in Scottish village and hamlets? scope_creep^Talk 20:48, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

I used a postoffice PAF file to put these in, back in the day. They should be accurate already. scope_creep^Talk 20:59, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

You reverted a change of mine to the Trimsaran article last year. The edit summary you used was "Only Kidwelly is the post town according to Postcode Finder."

The opening sentence identifies the article as being about a community and a village. Conveniently, the community has the same boundaries as a council ward. The community includes addresses such as:

• Dythel Farm, Trimsaran Road, Pen-y-Mynydd, LLANELLI, Dyfed, SA15 4RL
• Tycornell, Pinged, BURRY PORT, Dyfed, SA16 0JN
• Trimsarn Miners Welfare Hall, Heol Llanelli, Trimsaran, KIDWELLY, Dyfed, SA17 4AA^[1]

When I updated the infobox, I looked at a dataset which associated a location with each postcode (rather than, say, each property) and included a postcode district if at least 10% of the postcodes associated with locations in the community were within that district.

Using zestate.co.uk's list, that gives 12% in SA16, 14% in SA16 and 74% in SA17.

Does this all make sense to you? And what do you think would be best for the article? Aoeuidhtns (talk) 17:12, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
