Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits. If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (194.81.226.132) is used to identify you instead. I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~). Happy editing! I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding {{U|I dream of horses}} to your message ( talk to me) ( My edits) @ 17:17, 10 August 2018 (UTC) Hi, are you ever going to stop tweaking this article? It's rather hard to go in and make changes because it is never stable. You've been at it for months and there are problems to be resolved. Bretonbanquet ( talk) 14:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC) Hi Bretonbanquet -- It's about finished. A couple of paragraphs still to add, but otherwise done. I'm aiming for perfection here; apologies if I'm overdoing it. Have just seen your latest comment. This hasn't been mentioned before. If you're still online, please elaborate. 194.81.226.132 ( talk) 14:19, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
The first sentence ("He had a breakdown") came from a Jim Farber interview dated 2017. It was an important statement, an acknowledgement of what was obvious but someone needed to say, and I felt it needed to be there in that position. The rest of the paragraph quoted Fleetwood from his two autobiographies. The second cite of each pair is a page number. The sentence is not intended to be taken as one continuous quote: the dots ( ... ) indicate gaps or discontinuity. Welch section: I included this material as scene-setting and background to fill out the picture. This was the environment Kirwan was working, touring and performing in, and in effect Welch is describing it for us on Kirwan's behalf. But I bow to your judgement if you feel it should be somewhere else. 194.81.226.131 ( talk) 15:32, 16 February 2019 (UTC)
The copy of the current Wikipedia Danny Kirwan which has appeared on the WikiVisually site has had numerous changes made to the punctuation. Will someone please ask whoever is responsible not to make changes to the published text, and in particular not to tinker with precise and correctly applied punctuation. 194.81.226.132 ( talk) 15:34, 19 June 2019 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page
Danny Kirwan has been reverted.
If this is a
shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider
creating an account for yourself or
logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Thank you for your kind message. I am not 'editing disruptively' and I am not 'vandalising' anything. Kindly explain in plain English what you mean. I put a lot of time and effort into this, with the best of intentions, and the editing I do is as thoughtful, rational, intelligent, careful, scrupulous and thorough as I can make it. If I sometimes make mistakes of protocol with, in this instance, an invalid citation, it does not indicate any malicious or mischievous intent: it just means I occasionally get technical details wrong. Kindly refrain from jumping to arbitrary conclusions and issuing threats. I am extremely angry and insulted. Please reply. 194.81.226.132 ( talk) 13:10, 16 August 2021 (UTC) Per wp:ENGVAR, please maintain the existing English variant which appears to be American English per starting edit initial edits e.g. "honor" rather than "honour". Thank you Adakiko ( talk) 10:49, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm
Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of
your recent contributions—specifically
this edit to
Christine McVie—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the
sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the
Teahouse or the
Help desk. Thanks.

- The edit you refer to consisted of the addition of the word 'English' to the locality 'Lake District', on the assumption that not everyone who reads this article will know which country the Lake District is in. This was a good faith edit which was intended to be helpful and constructive. In the process of adding it, the '3' appears to have dropped off the end of the date. This was a minor typo which I would have fixed if you had not intervened. 194.81.226.132 ( talk) 11:44, 17 December 2022 (UTC)
- I see you also found it necessary to revert the edit which someone else had also objected to, in which the grammatically correct construction "In 1967 McVie, then performing under the name Christine Perfect, heard that..." was reverted to the original and rather clumsy "In 1967, then performing under the name Christine Perfect, McVie heard that ..." The first is better because the construction is "In 1967 McVie [ ] heard that..." with a subordinate clause inserted which refers to the subject 'McVie'. Saying it the other way round is not the better option. The main point of the sentence is to state "McVie heard that..." Mentioning that she was performing as Christine Perfect is secondary. 194.81.226.131 ( talk) 12:12, 17 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi 194.81.226.132! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as
typo corrections or reverting obvious
vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see
Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

A 12-month block beginning 28 November 2023 has been placed on IP 194.81. addresses operated by Oxfordshire County Council because of alleged misuse of Wikipedia in schools and colleges. (See message from Materialscientist dated 28 November.) This blanket ban has unfortunately had the effect of also blocking access to Wikipedia in the county's public libraries, where much conscientious editing has been carried out on IP 194.81.226.132 since 2018 (see user history). I assume this was not intended, and I would be grateful if this IP number could be unblocked. 194.81.226.132 ( talk) 16:24, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
