New articles[edit]

Hallo, Welcome to Wikipedia. When you are creating a new article, such as the ones for Gunby Hall and Grantham House, please remember to add sources, and to link to relevant articles within Wikipedia. Otherwise your articles may get proposed for deletion as "not notable", or plastered with banners asking you or other editors to clean them up in various ways. I've done some work on Gunby Hall - I leave it to you to work on the other one. Good luck with your editing - there's a lot to learn along the way, and it can get addictive!

You can also add images, if they're OK in copyright terms - and Geograph has a handful at http://www.geograph.org.uk/gridref/TF4666 which we could add. No time right now but I might remember to come back and add one of them. PamD (talk) 18:32, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
