Thank you! —Skyllfully ^(talk | _contribs) 23:08, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Is there a reason you have put this empty duplicated section back?

Thanks! Thinker77 (talk) 07:47, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

Oh whoops. I didn't see the other section Accreditations. I've reverted my edits now, thanks for catching that!   —Skyllfully ^(talk | _contribs) 07:48, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

While I don't expect to be a terribly active contributor/editor I do very much appreciate the existence of Wikipedia and have contributed to it financially for years.

Does this mean I can now go ahead and make the edit I proposed to the "Trump endorsements" page or does that still require another, more credentialed user?

Thanks.

@Jonmaustin: you still need your account confirmed before you can edit semi-protected pages, your account will be automatically confirmed after you've been registered for 4 days and have made at least 10 edits. For now, I will take a look at your request and see what I can do. Once again welcome and happy editing! —Skyllfully ^(talk | _contribs) 16:40, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

Postscript: I have taken a look at your edit request but it seems to me that the referenced newspaper does not fit Wikipedia's notability requirements and should not be added to the list. Thank you!   —Skyllfully ^(talk | _contribs) 16:50, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Pickering High School, Ajax, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. There was nothing at all "impertinent" about that thread you removed. It was s pefectly normal template about the licensing of an image file. Meters (talk) 03:31, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey there (thanks for the belated welcome, LOL)! I just assumed that since PHS logo.jpg has been replaced by a totally different image it'd make sense to remove the thread, but now when I think about WP:TPNO WP:TPO, it should be allowed to stay. Thanks for catching this! —Skyllfully ^(talk | _contribs) 03:36, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

I would have no objection to collapsing or archiving that thread, but your edit summary was not appropriate. Meters (talk) 03:39, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

I would like to clean the clear and present bias and non neutral language on the page. I am ok with a little critism but the page is not academically written According to the edit history of the page the bias edits and vandalism have been an issue since 2008. Also some of the "references " used by the writer are opinion pieces publish by tto have dr Murdock's honorary title used in his name since it is citeed in the document e trinity foundation I would also like h Pjlancer (talk) 03:52, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi Skyllfully. I spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out how to reply to your comments on my proposed changes.

I made the tweaks you suggested.

Also I inquired about the footnote ordering problem which obviously is not a real problem. I tried refreshing the page quite a few times the day I made the edits, but the ordering was still bonked. Today I see the footnote numbering has caught up with the changes.

PS I read the page about signing posts. Not sure exactly how this should go, even after seeing the example. In any event, I am not a regular editor for Wikipedia, but I try my best to follow the rules and recommendations vis a vis editing pages.
