[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Donner60. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to List of highest scores in figure skating—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Donner60 (talk) 05:41, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am striking this message because my revert, and accompanying message, was meant for another nearly simultaneous edit that was erroneous. Your edit was an attempt to provide the correct information. Occasionally, if edits are nearly simultaneous, the Huggle program will revert the wrong edit which results in the wrong person receiving a message. I know that the information you were trying to add is correct so I am sorry for the mixup. If the correct information has been removed by mistake, you or I can now add it back.

Thanks for your clarification, the information has helpfully been added by another contributor. IndentFirstParagraph (talk) 06:02, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Great. I just checked as well. I see that there has been a large number of edits to the article in a short period of time. At least one seems to have been a deliberate error. In any event, it is good for now. Since this is a recent event which has attracted considerable interest, and the event is not completed, this article should probably be checked for errors occasionally over the next several days. Happy editing. Donner60 (talk) 06:14, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MacLehose Trail source

[edit]

Hi! I noticed you referenced the following article from the South China Morning Post in the MacLehose trail article (v"Army pair conquer MacLehose Trail". South China Morning Post. 14 November 1979. p. 14.). You wouldnt by chance have a copy of that article or know how I could access it? Reason I ask is my father was a British Army soldier who ran the MacLehose trail 2 years in a row early in its existence in a sub 24 hour time and I wonderd if the soliders were referenced in the article? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide Jurisprudy (talk) 21:27, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and apologies for the absurdly late reply (as you can probably tell, my editing career here was rather short-lived so I don't regularly monitor this page). I've dug out the article, linked here [1]. I used the ProQuest database of the South China Morning Post, which is accessible for free through the computers at any major public library in Hong Kong (if you ever decide to visit). Hopefully this helps! IndentFirstParagraph (talk) 06:19, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
