Hi! When a sock user linked one of my created page, I got to know about the new page "Aima Baig". I understand that edits by a sock user should be reverted, but what if other (trusted) users also edit the page at the same time? I mean, how could I restore my edits there? I have also
asked for guidance at
User talk:Chrissymad (the one who reverted), but they didn't respond. Please help, thanks!

- Hello @ M.Billoo2000:. I've been working to revert edits by that sockpuppeteer, though it wasn't me that accidentally reverted your changes to that article. I've restored your edits, and I'm happy to discuss the problem further with you at your talk page. Thanks, The Mighty Glen ( talk) 07:54, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
I was reading article on Dhan baba Nand Singh ji Maharaj where you mentioned Mentor of Dhan Baba Nand Singh ji Maharaj.

Hi, Regarding this template: ( grid reference NN465016)
Where you use this in a loch article, or a body of water article. Here is a good article Loch Ard. Somebody previously has placed in the lede. Is that the best place for it? Thanks. scope_creep ( talk) 22:25, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
- I wouldn't have thought it belongs there,
scope_creep. The best thing could be to get a grid-reference parameter included in
{{ Infobox body of water}}. In the meantime that particular article has a ready-made home for the grid reference in the "Location" section : Noyster (talk), 15:26, 13 May 2018 (UTC)- Thanks : Noyster. I thought for a wee while nobody was going to answer it. I was looking for a geographer when you answered. That is what I'll do. I suprised there isn't an entry on body of water, I never thought of using it in the Location tab, as I have been using it for, well places next to the body of water, but the GBmapping once resolved take you, bang, right into the centre of the location. It ideal. I'll get the template changed. Thanks. scope_creep ( talk) 15:39, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
