Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Cheers! Rockingpotato (talk) 21:49, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for April 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Dukeries, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bassetlaw. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Stanley, Nottinghamshire

Hi @MatthewDavid41: Welcome to Wikipedia!! I reviewed your wee article and saw there was an "Ibid" on it. We don't use these in Wikipedia. It might be worth looking at WP:REFB, which is a wee video tutorial on how to create references. Hope that helps. scope_creep^Talk 12:36, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Teahouse is a good place to get help. scope_creep^Talk 12:38, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you.

I’m usually really good at references. I’ve changed them now. I hope all looks ok!

thanks for your help

Carr Bank Park moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Carr Bank Park. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Peter James (talk) 22:12, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Peter James. Please can you have a look at the Carr Bank Page and let me know your thoughts?

thank you MatthewDavid41 (talk) 03:16, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please use citation templates when adding references

Hello. I've noticed in a few articles, when you have been adding references, you add the phrase "Cite Web:" in the reference rather than using an applicable template, such as {{Cite web}}. For further information, please see the instructions on how to add citations via the description at Template:Citation and Help:Citation Style 1. Thanks! Steel1943 (talk) 03:01, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, please keep in mind that our stylization guidelines state the opening reference tag <ref> should be placed immediately after the text preceding it (including a letter or punctuation), not after a space. Please see MOS:REFSPACE for further details. Steel1943 (talk) 03:07, 15 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi There, you are so right. I will where possible go through and try and change the references where I can. Thank for your advice though.
