Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited SS Fleurus, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Stanley, Visnes and Tofte (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.

Hello! Just pinging you to ask if you could take action on our GeoNotice request for the Seven Sisters edit-a-thons. Know you're busy, thanks for all that you do for Wikipedia! (And if you feel the coords on our request are too broad, let's talk-- I can try again if you like, or you can suggest alternatives.) Again, thank you!

request to open dialogue

Dear Sir

i have very little idea of how the wikipedia interface manages communication so please accept my apologies if i have done or acted in an unforgivable manner. It is with great sincerity i make this request of you and i apologise that it may seem to come from no where but i have am trying to do the right thing. i will understand if you are unable to assist me but i thought there was nothing to lose. I have created a request for an article to be made and i was hoping you could assist me in making this article. i appreciate that you may not have the necessary time to execute such a request but i figure it may not take you very long. i cannot make it myself as it is about me and as you will see from the following link i have already tried -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Sugaspott - and failed.

when i failed for the last time prior to today i decided that it was not necessary and that my time was better off invested in other avenues. and then in the course of time the BBC put this on their website -http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/f7fcc586-7bd3-4872-9927-620da58b6421- after i received some airplay from Tom Robinson. that page stipulates that a biography can only come from Wikipedia. Now i have this monster of bureaucracy to tackle and because they oft end up with heated exchanges and ill mannered thoughts i beg for some resolve and assistance. I appreciate that i may not be as important as barrack obama but believe me sir i have contributed much less on a par to our society as have the following for illustration purposes only, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cokni_O%27Dire , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maskiri, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlord_X,
