[edit] The good and the bad
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --GraemeL (talk) 23:29, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Many thanks for the Newcomer Award - I saw loads of missing information on Glasgow and thought about adding them - major pages I've edited include Demographics and Climate in the main Glasgow page, created a Geography of Glasgow, Glasgow Festivals, and articles of the missing Glasgow Cathedral, St Lukes, plus loads of other smaller stuff.

Hi. If you create a new (Scottish or Scotland-stuff-related) article, you may wish (entirely your option) to list it at Wikipedia:Scottish Wikipedians' notice board/New articles. I've already added some of your recent additions there. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 17:23, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Sources for Glasgow Festivals
Hello, good work on Glasgow Festivals, and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. What websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Glasgow Festivals? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 06:27, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks - I'm still in the midst of creating the article Resistme 12:16, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
