Why did you revert the units in the Brigg article as the UK generally uses miles for distances rather than kilometers as per the other UK articles? Keith D ( talk) 18:54, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
Google maps has "River Rase" but many other sources have "River Rasen," so I am unsure what to call it. Since you are in Lincolnshire, what would you say?
Beyond that question, I am providing more information about what I am doing, concerning this river and bridges.
Incidentally, I see you are doing good work on Lincolnshire articles. -- DThomsen8 ( talk) 21:43, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
I am working with User:Dave.Dunford on his draft User:Dave.Dunford/Packhorse list of packhorse bridges, which he will probably merge into the existing article Packhorse bridges. I am working on the rivers (streams, really) without articles crossed by the bridges. I have already created the article on the River Kennett, in Suffolk, England. Now I have been working on the River Rase, aka River Rasen, crossed by a packhorse bridge. Here is an excerpt from his draft table, slightly altered by me. You can see that this bridge is sometimes called "Bishop's Bridge" because it was built by a bishop, ca. 1300-1320. Having a place, or according to what you say, a bridge by the same name or almost the same name, at the mouth of the River Rase, and mentions of that place, or bridge, elsewhere in Lincolnshire articles, makes for at least potential confusion, and also for difficulties in naming and writing new articles, about the river, or either of the bridges. The answer to such puzzles is best achieved by sleeping on it, and advice from those who are better informed.

Hi. Just thought you may be interested in that an article has been created for the River Rase, and a redirect for Bishopbridge. Feel free to add information you may, as I think you had worked out the naming for the Rase. Jokulhlaup ( talk) 17:37, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
I THINK you are wrong about students being allowed to vote in two places in UK (City of London page)... They may in practice often do so, since the whole local system is based on a large amount of trust, however I think it is technically illegal since one is asked when registering to state that this is one's main residence and one may have only one main residence. I don't object very much to your edit, since the previous coverage (previous to mine) was much more 'loaded' in its wording (implying something highly corrupt in the 'two votes'). However I am querying the assertion. Pincrete ( talk) 14:21, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
Apologies, you are correct "Students may be entitled to register at both their home address and their university address, but can only vote once to the same elected chamber or position." Govt website ....... ps it wasn't like that in my day! .... Pincrete ( talk) 16:12, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
Just out of curiosity, and since it's easier to ask you than to find out for myself! Is this solely true of LOCAL elections, or does it apply to Parliamentary elections as well, (since all elections use basically the same registers). I know 'in my day' students were often effectively disenfranchised from both, not for legal reasons, but because of their relative mobility in their 'study home' and physical distance from parental home.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited River Ancholme, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trent. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at City of London Corporation. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you.-- McGeddon ( talk) 21:36, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
When undoing a users actions, remember to explain why in your edit notes, if they persist to vandalize by removing content/editing content, warn them appropriately on their talk page to avoid disruptions by the user to continue. ----I am Kethrus Talk to me! 21:37, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
