This is to inform you, that the above user vandalized the Bob Dylan page today at 18:39. As you issued a final warning on the page, I thought you should be made aware of this. Best wishes, Lion King 00:02, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ANZ template for deletion?

Hi, I was wondering why you have suggested the deletion of Template:Country_IOC_alias_ANZ (and only 3 minutes after I created it!) I am working on Olympic pages and am using the Country_IOC_alias_xxx and Country_flag_IOC_alias_xxx templates to assist in creating medal tables and results tables. ANZ was the code used by the IOC for the combined Australia/New Zealand team in the 1908 and 1912 Olympics. I need the template for those pages. Andrwsc 23:40, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RfD

On 24-Feb, you tagged the redirect Murton (Yorkshire) for deletion, but you did not list it at Wikipedia:Redirects for deletion. I have added it to that page for discussion. You may wish to add a comment there if you still wish to see this redirect deleted. In the future, if you nominate a redirect for deletion, please list it. Thanks and let me know if you have any questions. -- JLaTondre 02:46, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Usage - be careful and check.

Just something to look out for when updating rail stats. when inputting the usage, make sure to check the figures. Well actually there is a small problem in that when someone updates them, some stations do not add on the million part. For example, your update to Manchester Piccadilly meant that 18.958 people used the station. A bit small and obscure. That obviously meant that not quite 19 people used the station. Be careful and check. Simply south 11:45, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

It seems to have been sorted now. Simply south 13:11, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Leeds United Article

Hi. I'm considering editing the Leeds United article into a few smaller articles as when you click edit at the top now it say's it's too long plus the page seems too long in general to me anyway. You're one of the people registered as a wikipedian Leeds United AFC fan in the category that I thought I may get a serious response out of so I was wondering what your thoughts were on which sections should be moved to different pages and linked in the club page. I will do all of the work on this (unless you want to do some yourself) but I’m currently after a few peoples opinions so I can sort the page out on a general consensus. Thanks. --Chappy84 15:16, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Ta for the suggestions, I was wondering about the bits down the bottom aswell, i.e. the bits after current squad, some pages seem to basically have a section similar to personel, the notable players section, managers and honours. I was wondering what sections you thought the rest could be divided up into (or maybe all just placed on one page) and whether the notable players section should be placed as a list with the version currently present on a different page or whether that version should stay present, if not should it all be moved and linked. the same also applying to the manager's records.
sorry if this is bothering you, just as I said, I don't want to make heaps of changes to the page without a general concencus of what a few fans would like to see be done to the page, thanks --Chappy84 23:01, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
thanks again for your thoughts, they're a big help. --Chappy84 20:33, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey, I'm back again. Since I last left comments I've done a bit of work trying to separate out all the information into relevant sections. I plan to add some small sections on Colours, Crest/Badge, Stadium, and Supporters like the other clubs with featured article status. The full history after I added some more info has been moved to Leeds United A.F.C. History but I've had a problem trying to reduce it to a length comparable to that on the featured articles Arsenal, Everton and Manchester City as I keep on thinking certain information should be there. I was wondering if you could possibly have a look at the main Leeds United article to see if you could reduce the history section on there a little bit further. I've also asked User:Britstyx as I did last time so I can get a general consensus. Thanks for your input last time again. --Chappy84 23:11, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ICEC template move

I disagree with moving it as NXEC are under the ICEC franchise and future companies are going to use this. This is the route of the franchise, not just the TOC. Simply south 18:53, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] London Underground lines

Hi Jorvik, I put that message in for the tourists and enthusiasts as well LOL! But seriously, it's pertinent irrespective of whether we decide to settle on line or Line? I'm just thinking in terms of people who visit London for the first time and see such signs in mixed case, while expecting double caps. Best, Sunil060902 14:16, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
