Just wanted to say a nice thing, that though you and I have spatted, we agree that Eric Corbett is a net positive to wikipedia and a good editor worth keeping! Montanabw (talk) 01:18, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
Hello, J3MRs. I apologise if my edit to Caphouse Colliery was incorrect. I was typing from memory that the men from Caphouse and Bullcliffe Wood were both moved to Denby Grange after the strike, but I can't find any decent source for this so I might have just imagined it. There is this article from the Yorkshire Post in 2007, but it reads as if they just copied the Wikipedia article at the time.
Did you live around there at the time and can you remember it closing? Or did you work there? Epa101 ( talk) 12:10, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
I see. They're not particularly academic sources, but I suppose that they're better than nothing. I finally found my copy of Colin Jackson's The Complete A-Z of Colliery Names, Pre-1947 Owners, Areas & Dates. That actually says that it closed in 1984! That might explain why there's not a single mention of the colliery in the book Coal, Crisis, and Conflict, which goes into meticulous detail on every pit in Yorkshire and its political alignment, and why it's missing from the map of the Yorkshire coalfield on page 6. You might be able to see it on Google Books preview here. Epa101 ( talk) 19:00, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
That doesn't mean that the men weren't transferred elsewhere. "Merged" doesn't always mean that two pits were knocked together. It's sometimes used to mean that the two places of employment were merged, as say happened between Dodworth and North Gawber, or between Hickleton and Goldthorpe. Nevertheless, you are being so rude that I am going to stop the discussion. You should note that you are breaking the Wikipedia rule on Civility, which is a policy for all editors and applies to talk pages as well. If I catch you doing this again, then I shall report you.

Hello. You may remember copy-editing Sleaford earlier this year. The article ended up passing GA and I've since been working on Quarrington, Lincolnshire, a village and suburb of the town; it seems that most of the content is there and I am thinking of putting it up for GA too. I am very grateful for your help with the Sleaford and I wondered whether you could take a look at Quarrington—my writing is far from perfect and a copy-edit is probably needed now.

I disagree with your reversion of the above-cited section and posted comments when I "undid" it. I agree that laundry lists are not a good idea, but sometimes bulletted lists - as in this case - are both more reader-friendly and a good organizing tool for sections like this one. My approach has many precedents in other Wikipedia articles, and I think it should be left standing. This is, after all, an encyclopedia, not an English class essay.

Hey, sorry if I'm treading on your toes there. I'm going through all of Lutyens' war memorials and hoping to get the more important ones to featured article status; I've already done Northampton War Memorial and I've got another one at FAC and several more in the queue (you might like to see User:HJ Mitchell/L, User:HJ Mitchell/War memorials, and User:HJ Mitchell/to-do for the method in my madness). I promise, even if it looks like I'm completely mad, the article will be better at the other end. At the moment I'm just laying out the skeleton from the NHLE entry, then I'm planning to flesh it out using Tim Skelton's Lutyens and the Great War and the various other books in the pile on my coffee table. It'll probably take me two or three weeks, possibly a bit longer depending on how busy I am over Christmas. Is there any chance you could let me get the basic structure into place before hacking away too drastically? Once all the information is in, it's much easier to rearrange things, and the background looks less like excessive detail and more like placing it in context. You'd be welcome to join as co-nom on the eventual FAC if you wanted. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:54, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I disagree with your reversion of the above-cited section and posted comments when I "undid" it. I agree that laundry lists are not a good idea, but sometimes bulletted lists - as in this case - are both more reader-friendly and a good organizing tool for sections like this one. My approach has many precedents in other Wikipedia articles, and I think it should be left standing. This is, after all, an encyclopedia, not an English class essay. Cheers, Froid ( talk) 08:53, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
Please read WP:BADHEAD and MOS:HEAD rather than change section headings to your personal preferences. If you have issues with the Manual of Style, then please take it up on the appropriate talk page rather than reverting. Jeni ( talk) 12:33, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
A specific quote from the accessability guide for you:
To You and Yours! FWiW Bzuk ( talk) 11:06, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for your input on that GAN. I have decided to close it as not listed as I feel the situation there is problematic for several reasons, including that the article itself is not ready. SilkTork ✔Tea time 18:08, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

A divine is a cleric, as any dictionary will tell you. Please self-revert. Awien ( talk) 21:17, 23 March 2016 (UTC)
Just for the record, Eric Corbett did eventually look it up, and admitted that I was, in fact, right all along. Awien ( talk) 21:51, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
Thank you once again for all your edits and comments on the Senghenydd colliery disaster article and at the PR. This is now at FAC, should you wish to comment further. Cheers – SchroCat ( talk) 12:12, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to this article. A minor point, see User:Aymatth2#Line breaks, it would be easier for me if the line breaks were left in this article, which still needs considerable expansion. Thanks, Aymatth2 ( talk) 02:02, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bedford, Greater Manchester, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Brook. 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.

Thanks for changing my edit for the population of Leigh. My edit was supported by the refs though. Atherleigh ward, as the name suggests, is half in Atherton, half in Leigh, yet you have included the entire population of the ward in the town of Leigh. Have you looked at the ward map? The approximate population of Leigh was stated in the article before I added it to the infobox and before you deleted both Huddsblue ( talk) 03:56, 21 May 2016 (UTC)
Hi J3Mrs! In regards to the above photo, is this an exhibit from the National Coal Mining Museum for England? Kelly hi! 13:06, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
I noticed that, depending on which listing you look at on Historic England, the name of the mine is spelled as either "Frances" or "Francis". [3] Would I be correct in assuming that the definitive name is "Frances", after Frances Bassett? If so I'll correct the spelling at Commons:Category:South Wheal Francis and drop an e-mail to Historic England. Kelly hi! 09:30, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
Hi there, thank-you for your recent factual adjustments, I am in the process of adding the citations and will check double check John Hargreaves Jr being a magistrate anyway, but my recollection is that he was not a JP before he became a partner of the business, but was when he left.
If you fancy doing the pages on the Hargreaves brothers that would be great? Regards 80.229.34.113 ( talk) 14:18, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey, sorry if I'm treading on your toes there. I'm going through all of Lutyens' war memorials and hoping to get the more important ones to featured article status; I've already done Northampton War Memorial and I've got another one at FAC and several more in the queue (you might like to see User:HJ Mitchell/L, User:HJ Mitchell/War memorials, and User:HJ Mitchell/to-do for the method in my madness). I promise, even if it looks like I'm completely mad, the article will be better at the other end. At the moment I'm just laying out the skeleton from the NHLE entry, then I'm planning to flesh it out using Tim Skelton's Lutyens and the Great War and the various other books in the pile on my coffee table. It'll probably take me two or three weeks, possibly a bit longer depending on how busy I am over Christmas. Is there any chance you could let me get the basic structure into place before hacking away too drastically? Once all the information is in, it's much easier to rearrange things, and the background looks less like excessive detail and more like placing it in context. You'd be welcome to join as co-nom on the eventual FAC if you wanted. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:54, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi, J3Mrs. I'm just posting to let you know that Listed buildings in Rivington – a list that you have been heavily involved with – has been chosen to appear on the Main Page as Today's featured list for February 3.

Would you please reconsider your deletion of my supplemental geolocation data for Saddlebrook Moor "(→See also: what's that got to do with it?) "? As indicated on the notes listed on Talk page -- and in keeping with my subsequent edit to the body of the article -- his are not the only mysterious mortal remains in that specific area that Wikipedia readers (see WikiProject_Death) may be consulting e.g. I should like to append a third historical episode under the [ double murder at Bill O'Jacks Inn (here 20th C OS Map) on Holmsfirth Road to expand the topic under 'Further Reading' for the curious MrsKrishan ( talk) 05:10, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
The editor involved seems to have moved on from being inexperienced and inept to downright rude and pig-headed! I'm tempted to just take the article off my watchlist, but, like you, I've spent quite a lot of time on it over the months trying to patch up the shambles s/he creates. It's getting depressing.
