WELCOME | Greetings and Welcome! I noticed that your username shows up red when you post an edit -- in case you were wondering why, this is because your userpage is devoid of content. If you were to place anything at all on your userpage (text, photographs, etc.), your username would then appear blue by default. By convention, most contributing editors who intend on becoming a part of the Wikipedia family generally place information about themselves on their userpages to let people know a little about themselves. As a result, editors whose usernames are still red may (however unjustly, yet, nonetheless) appear to other editors as lacking a serious motivation in both editing Wikipedia articles as well as joining the Wikipedia community at large. Although it is not at all required, I therefore recommend that you place something on your userpage, such as information relating to your city of residence or occupation -- basically anything that will allow another editor to identify with you and peer into your mind a bit. You can check out other editors' userpages to get an idea of what is normally included (find them easiest by checking the history tab on randomly chosen yet substantial articles), and even copy/paste from other editors' userpages (modifying the information to reflect your own, of course).

Hello. You moved Geoffrey (Archbishop of York) to Geoffrey, Archbishop of York. This goes against the guideline Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Clergy). Any specific reason for this move? Fram ( talk) 20:40, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello and thanks for the interest you showed in that article, as you may not know I largely wrote that article. To add an infobox definately was a good idea there however were a few things I wished to change in that infobox to avoid confusion with other eras and to add some more accuracy:

If you are interested then please add your name to this list, and you will receive your first issue shortly. From June 2013 we are starting a new "in focus" section that tells our readers about an interesting and important groups of articles. The first set is about Jesus, of course. We have also started a new book review section and our own "did you know" section. In the near future I hope to start a section where a new user briefly discusses their interests.-- Gilderien Chat| List of good deeds 20:56, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
