WP:BNA access
Hey DSP13, I created Coventry Herald today, and realized that you had a list of such articles to work on at User:Dsp13/Periodicals through the What Links Here?. Moreover, I noticed that you were pointing to the British Newspaper Archive as a source for building those articles. We recently created a free access partnership with them which you could sign up for at WP:BNA, and you would be a great user to use it (though I can see that you are semi-retired). I hope you sign up for access with all of the contributions you have made to relevant topic areas in the past :) Sadads (talk) 16:14, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
