[edit]Hi, the recent edit you made to Spice Girls has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.

Disambiguate West Midlands -> West Midlands (county)
[edit]Hi Doolish,
Please could you use the following links to clarify which West Midlands you are talking about when adding links to articles?
- West Midlands to refer to the Metropolitan County of that name
- West Midlands to refer to the conurbation of that name
- West Midlands to refer to the region of that name
The unqualified West Midlands simply leads to a disambiguation page - and I've used the "pipe trick" above so that the text reads correctly.

Looks like you got into a little scrape trying to fix the template on Martin Platt I reset it to the last clean page for you. You might consider poking around some of the how to links...wiki markup is not nearly as easy as it looks sometimes :) Legotech·(t)·(c) 19:13, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Gary Glitter -- Actor
[edit]Hi, I'm wondering why you think Gary Glitter's page should include the actor infobox instead of the musicial infobox?--Stlemur (talk) 12:45, 5 March 2008 (UTC) Doolish (talk) 14:04, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
