- 16:4916:49, 18 February 2019 diff hist −23 Post horn →Post Horn Gallop: Deleted the link to Hermann Koenig the landscape designer; he was born in 1883, so he can't be the Hermann Koenig who wrote the Galop in 1844.

- 20:5620:56, 30 July 2018 diff hist −108 Waltzing Matilda →Writing of the song: Tried to sort out the confusion over Tannahill and Barr that has Barr setting a tune by Tannahill to music! -- Barr wrote a poem (1806) (words given in ref) and Barr set it to music. Also, it was Craigilee, not Craigilea (which is the is English spelling), and deleted "old" from Field melody as Field was born in 1782. (Field might have used an older tune, but that's not what the article says.).

20 October 2017
- 09:5909:59, 20 October 2017 diff hist +2 Sir John McEwen, 1st Baronet →Peerage: Changed para title to "Baronetcy". The article makes no mention of him having received any peerage, and in any case, this para is about his baronetcy.
