Thank you

Despite a few early hiccups navigating Wikipedia's myriad guidelines and policies, you've done a wonderful job improving the Rudi Bass article. It would be wonderful if you decided to return and help with other articles in the future, Wikipedia is always looking for content contributors and researchers. If you do choose to continue on as a volunteer here, the Community Portal has a wealth of information on how you can contribute depending on your interests. --Jezebel'sPonyo^{bons mots} 16:27, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your support and guidance. I look forward to the page banners being removed on the Rudi Bass article as confirmation of it being considered complete. There is much I need to learn about Wikipedia and it practices, etc. I have decided to look at the Article "Barking up the Wrong Tree"MrsHayward 07:24, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
