A tag has been placed on Woodhill Road Halt railway station, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material.

[edit] Edit summaries

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to Milnrow. Thank you. -- Jza84 · (talk) 16:56, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Hello again,
You have just editted Milnrow without providing an edit summary. So please allow me to explain how this works and why it is important.
On a page being edited, a small "Summary" field is found under the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary text box
It is good practice to fill in the Edit Summary field, or add to it in the case of section editing, as it helps everyone to understand what is changed, such as when perusing the history of the page. It's a good idea to set your user preferences (under Editing) to "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary". Always fill in the summary field:- This is considered an important guideline. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may question your motives for the edit.
Accurate summaries help people decide whether it is worthwhile for them to check a change. We've found that summaries often pique the interest of contributors with expertise in the area. This may not be as necessary for "minor changes", but "fixed spelling" is still very much recommended.
Hope that helps for the future, -- Jza84 · (talk) 17:16, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Milnrow

Hello P.Hogg,

I notice that in addition to your contributions of text, you are also adding photographs - which is great! I was wondering if you'd be able to take a photograph of Milnrow and/or Rochdale sometime - something along the lines of what's found at the top right of Shaw and Crompton and Oldham articles? I think a great shot would be found at Burnedge/Laneside/Fairview at High Crompton for both towns.

It'd be great too if you would take a look at Greater Manchester WikiProject and make contact with us! Hope to hear from you, -- Jza84 · (talk) 02:08, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bindaree

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Bindaree, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Bindaree.
