If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from Nettrom ( talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot ( talk) 20:18, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
Please check the number of incoming links ; before they had somewhere to go they were all going to the wrong article. In ictu oculi ( talk) 14:17, 23 January 2017 (UTC)
Find something better to do with your time than reverting needed edits to poor articles. Given that your sole non-undo contribution to said article was a typo fix eight years ago, it is likely to remain C-class for rather a long time should said stewardship remain in place.

No intention of getting into the above tussle ... :) Question: why does Chaim Weizmann need the considered to be the father of industrial fermentation puffery? - it is not relevant to the article. Also it seems that WP discourages the use of Dr or other honorifics within articles. - or have I missed something? Vsmith ( talk) 16:32, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
Would you remember telling me I was wrong to put those marine engine pics under David Napier? Well I'm working on it! Eddaido ( talk) 12:51, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
Please be careful about what you say to people. Some remarks, such as your addition to Wikipedia talk:Requested moves#Low probability of intercept radar and another undiscussed Dicklyon move can easily be misinterpreted, or viewed as harassment. Wikipedia is a supportive environment, where contributors should feel comfortable and safe while editing.
Re this edit. If we're using that element of policy do you have a source which states Stoker wrote in British English? Rather than Oxford spelling, most often used by authors? The second point I would make is that in your edit summary you wrote that Stoker had more " WP:TIES to Whitby" than to Dublin. TIES talks about National ties, not ties to a local town. In any case, Stoker spent more years in Dublin than in Whitby by far. He attended university in Dublin, was a theatre critic for the Dublin Evening Mail, founded the Dublin Sketching Club and married in Dublin. He did not move to London until 1878, when he was 31.

Hi Andy
Gaunless Bridge is in Category:Railway bridges in County Durham.
You have placed it in Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Yorkshire. One of those two is wrong. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • ( contribs)
I noticed your edit here and was wondering where this MOS page was (I searched up and down and couldn't find anything)? May I request that you link to the MOS pages in your edit summaries in the future? It'll save folks some trouble. — Huntster ( t @ c) 04:40, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
The US helicopter patrols take vigilant care to only shoot armed militants and terrorists. Labeling the one victim and one survivor who escapes into a house and is not killed because of the humane approach they use (kill shots after initial explosion if they are wounded and in pain) as "people" just acts to undermine what they actually were. Sure they were people, but we all are people and it is bipartisan and anti-American to use that tone in a description as if you're catering to anti-American people. They would have blown up the house the "person" ran into if they were killing innocent people. Get it right, politically correct stooge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.189.66 ( talk) 10:13, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
Re your restoration of a comment at Talk:5 ft and 1520 mm gauge railways, while the term "useful idiot" may be a well-recognised term in Soviet politics, it is pejorative even there and It constitutes a personal attack on the person who made the good-faith suggestion of changing the gauge in the U.S. It was already pointed out in 2010 that this is very unlikely to happen, ever, and was rejected for inclusion in the article. The comment you restored seems to be nothing but an expression of animosity directed at the original contributor in a thread long dead, and does nothing to contribute to improving the article. Why do you think it belongs on the talk page?-- agr ( talk) 18:11, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
