[edit] Let me add my welcome

Noticed your creation of Category:Pilgrim route. I think this is not one i'd have thought of, but is really an excellent category. It represents a different way to look at the topic and challenges one to find more pilgrims routes to add to the list. Well done. Hope to see more of your work - Williamborg 23:52, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Citations

Thanks for your addition to Nutmeg. Could you please provide citations. Please see WP:RS if you are not familiar with it. thanks and regards Merbabu 14:19, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Use of English

Hi Jane023. I noticed your emphasis on Dutch (esp. North Holland) topics. Because I also frequently contribute to the same topics, I really value your additions. Just a word of caution: I noticed that you frequently use Dutch terms that are not translated or explained, for example "geniedijk" and "rijksmonument". These are used as terms, not as names, and should therefore be translated as per WP:UE and to maintain a global perspective for WP (e.g. "engineering dike" and "national monument"). Contact me if you need some translation advice. -- P199 16:17, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Codex Calixtinus

Hi there! Just a friendly pointer about linking in articles: Per the manual of style, it is normal to link only the first occurrence of a term in an article, and not to link subsequent uses. Also, it is usual only to link terms which are relevant to the subject under discussion. These two style guidelines are to avoid 'overlinking' in articles, which can make them harder to read.
