[edit] DougSoc
I do not feel it is justified to keep it as a separate entry, so I merged the article into Douglas Adams per WP:BOLD. It seemed to me that it was the logical place for it. I did not think it would be controversial, but now it seems I was wrong.... However, I would be interested to further understand the grounds of your objection. Perhaps you are implying in your message that Dougsoc is principally a drinking club, and the name of Douglas Adams is being used in vain? Even so, I would probaly maintain it is the best place for that stub is as a trivia appendix for the Dougls Adam article. Ohconfucius 12:23, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

- "Using Adams' name in vain" is pretty much the size of it, yes. I'm currently updating the text of the entry to reflect this, and to give a bit more information -- it was certainly rather sparse before. I feel that DougSoc as a society is / was notable in its own right, and relegation to an trivium in the Adams entry wouldn't reflect that. Phil PH 12:31, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'll let you get on with it, then. We'll have another chat in due course ;-) Ohconfucius 01:15, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Newman University College
Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. You moved the Newman University College article using cut-and-paste, which means the history is not maintained with the page, I have reverted your edit. Please read Help:Moving a page for information on how to move a page. Edward (talk) 13:54, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
- Also, i disagree with the changes you made (even though they were reverted for other reasons). Whether or not to add 'Birmingham' to the title was already discussed at Talk:Newman_University_College - as Birmingham is not in their official name, its rather a location statement on their website. If you wish to discuss this further, i would be happy to, on the Talk:Newman_University_College page. Thanks H0sting (talk) 23:16, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Dating in Doctor Who - - Stacy Townsend
Hi. I'm responding to your request for citation of the dates 2220, 2246, and 3998 for the Doctor Who companion Stacy Townsend. I'm having difficulty finding the source from which I got those dates from I'm sorry to say. At the time though, they did make sense to add them based on whatever the evidence I found was. –– Alan-WK (talk) 12:11, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
