Yes i believe that you're right. See the relevant page 'Mary Morstan' (Watson's [First?] wife). P.S. don't turn me into a zombie. P.P.S I admire the way you've taken up the userboxes - may i also suggest {{User:Scepia/Sherlockian}}? Pydos 17:26, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

• Could it be in the extended canon? Sherlock Holmes has been used as a character by writers other than Arthur Conan Doyle, but this isn't considered correct. Check out Non-canonical works related and derived from Sherlock Holmes for a list (and add what your remember if the story isn't there). The Jack the Ripper case scandalised, nay terrified London - it would have been very insensitive for Sherlock Holmes to be connected with it. Such things were dealt with by Penny Dreadfuls - would you read a novel about Harold Shipman? Pydos 19:34, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Ok - well done for finding it! See you around the Sherlock Holmes page. Pydos 18:31, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Banner thingys

If you mean something like this;

The small ones are called user boxes. On my page is a portal to a whole load of interesting ones. I've stuck the one above on your page anyway...delete it if you don't like it. Pydos 12:47, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Me

If any one has any wikiprojects and need to help tell me. I want to help. User:SaintDante

Dunno - try some of the classics;

• Jules Verne
• Swanns way by Proust (a bildungsroman)
• If you haven't read him Dante
• something steampunk
• If you know of Doctor Who, try Lungbarrow

all available at Project Gutenburg for free - except 'lungbarrow'-see the wikpedia page about it for a link

[edit] Hey!

We can't unblock you at this time, because you haven't given us the information we need to even look into your block. You yourself were not blocked; if you were prevented from editing, you must have been autoblocked or blocked because of your IP address. I'm removing your unblock request because there's nothing we can do without this information. If you still want to be unblocked, feel free to add the {{unblock}} tag back to this page, and be sure to include the message you saw when you tried to edit, including the IP address. This is what the message looks like. Without that information, we can't help you. --pgk 22:27, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
