[edit] Just a quick reply to your message.

Actually the syntax for reference tags always ends up causing problems, no matter how long you are on Wikipedia - he said encouragingly ;) .

I don't know if it has happened to you yet, but it's bound to happen, when you forget to close a <ref> tag and half the page disappears if you save or preview. If worst comes to worst, undo the edit or drop a note on the Help page. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 01:55, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

(Update) LOL. Actually I typed that message a few minutes before I sent it, and I think it happened to you as I was typing. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 01:58, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mary Kenny O'Sullivan

OK, not sure if you are still checking your messages, but I came across an article at Mary Kenney O'Sullivan and remebered the Mary Kenny O'Sullivan article. I was going to suggest a simple redirect, but unfortunately, while I am almost certain that she would have used the Kenny spelling herself, as that it how the surname is spelt (overwhelmingly) in Ireland, the sources do tend to use the Kenney spelling. I have started a discussion on the Mary Kenny O'Sullivan talk page. FlowerpotmaN·(t) 01:01, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
