Hi. Can you provide a source for the 40 casualties please. The most I can find is 38. — Trilobite (Talk) 7 July 2005 22:42 (UTC)

Was just making it consistent with the timeline; maybe you should ask whoever updated that. Looks as if the 40 has been removed in the last couple of minutes, so fair enough, stick with 38. Cmow

Your edit summary at [1] states that you've deleted material that's "pretty biased". Either you're claiming that my neutral and sourced addition in the first paragraph (regarding Davies trying to cut funding from the Gay Pride event) was

• biased against him as some sort of call to arms against him for attempting to cut the funding, or
• biased for him, being placed as an approbation.

As my text was neutral reportage, I'd be interested to know which you think it was, and why. Regards, Tonywalton ^Talk 23:57, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:48, 13 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I think you misunderstand my comment. Clearly, this is being disputed on the page. I see at least three editors disputing it. Whether it should be disputed is another matter. StAnselm (talk) 12:29, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You left me a message on my talk page. But I'm confused about this statement- In short: we're not saying "this is her legal name," we're saying "this is her preferred name, please be polite and use it!. Who is We're? Does We're refer to Wikipedia, or a wikipedia rule or does We're refer to you and your beliefs? BeckiGreen (talk) 06:24, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. I usually edit dumb topics like Dance Moms, so I have never been in a vote or debate type thing on Wikipedia before. I have read the rules and guidelines for Wikipedia, but there are so many I cannot possibly read or know them all is why I asked. Thanks again! BeckiGreen (talk) 00:16, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Smowton. I moved Xkcdreader's comment along with your response at WT:Manual of Style from the middle of my comment to the end to make it clearer who said what. -- ToE 10:35, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note that I have removed 1 single comment from both you and Tarc as Case Clerk; his reply is certainly borderline uncivil, but was prompted by your comment which I deem off-topic (and to a certain degree both of you are arguing the same points over and over.) Further comment threads like this may lead to blocks.

Case Clerk of the Manning case,

Surprised by off-topic -- I was essentially pressing him to admit that the remarks he defends are particular instances of the incivility the proposal talks about -- but I'll cop to going round in circles and won't press the matter. Chris Smowton (talk) 08:55, 21 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm MelbourneStar. I noticed that in this edit to William Gates Building, Cambridge, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. —MelbourneStar☆^talk 15:01, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
