re: Jean Rhys[edit]

Hi, G88keeper, nice to meet you. You had the basic idea about placement, but comments tend to fall chronologically, so next time add it to the very end of the page. :) I think it's great that you plan to create new articles on forgotten people in the literary world! As long as your articles fulfill notability concerns and include verifiable sources, you should have no problem with your work. You may find the Biography WikiProject helpful; there is a great list of how-to tips on that page with links to certain Wikipedia conventions and style guidelines. There's also a talk page for the Project where you can ask questions if you have them. I also added the Welcome template above with several links to help get you started. Welcome to Wiki! Take care, María (habla conmigo) 12:17, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Derrick Leon - I have started the article, and apologise for its brevity, and for not getting it all formatted Wikipedia-style, but I have not been too well lately, and felt that it was time the omission of Derrick Leon from Wikipedia just had to be remedied. The typescript of Ruskin was bought in 1971 by the Ohio State Universities, which ask that mention of it be referenced http://www.library.ohiou.edu/archives/mss/mss003.html so in case any kind person can do this for me, I have posted this here. Thank you.

Do you have a reference for his death (news report, obit., etc)? If so could you add it to the article or talk page as soon as possible, thanks. Verbal chat 12:55, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think anyone really doubted that they were married, but by the rules of BLP (Biographies of Living Persons) were such that we would have had to have a solidly reliable source for the information. Of course he is now deceased, so those rules no longer apply, but we still should have a source. Is it mentioned in obituaries? Paul B (talk) 12:31, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you to Verbal (I have left a reply on his Talk page); and to Paul B. I think there was a report of the wedding in several local newspapers, and I have the Order of Service here, though I doubt if the obituaries will mention much about it. I am a long way from civilization here, with just an internet link at my disposal, so getting hold of verifiable sources can be problematical for me; however, I shall do my best to locate something that will withstand scrutiny. g88keeper (talk) 12:53, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sid Rawle[edit]

Greetings. Do you have any sources that verify the contents of this article and demonstrate that subject's notability? Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 13:04, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I found a few. More would help! Thanks, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 17:00, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

August 2013[edit]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Shillingford, Devon may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Fixed it now! Thanks, BracketBot. g88keeper (talk) 14:14, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for August 13[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Shillingford, Devon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bampton (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Account housekeeping[edit]

Hi there. I notice you have a Commons account too. As a result of our SUL finalization process it's been renamed to User:G88keeper~commonswiki - this is probably because you didn't respond to an automatic message asking you to link the accounts. Don't worry, I'm looking into getting this fixed for you. Can you please do me a favor and log in on Commons (your password hasn't changed), and on your talk page, write "I am G88keeper from the English Wikipedia and I still have access to this account"? I'll take it from there. If you could reply to me here using {{ping|Scott}} afterwards, that would be great.

Thanks and best wishes, — Scott • talk 16:22, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Scott: Yes, done now g88keeper (talk) 01:04, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again - sorry, I should have been more clear... I need you to log in there as "G88keeper~commonswiki" as it's that account we need to prove is linked to you. Apologies for the inconvenience and thanks for getting back to me quickly. — Scott • talk 13:32, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Scott: Ahhhh, I see - check now, I think you'll find everything in order now g88keeper (talk)
