Comment by Gobanian
I removed a sentence claiming there were talks by exiled Kings of Norway Holland and Belgium. The King of Belgium was not exiled; he stayed there through the war. The Netherlands, which is the correct title for the country, did not have a King but a Queen. How can such basic errors get through? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gobanian (talk • contribs) 04:34, 21 July 2020(UTC)
 * Hi Gobanian, thanks for spotting this. I have since corrected the article -it should have been the leaders of the governments-in-exile, I misinterpreted the source.  A couple of pointers:
 * When you removed the text from the article you also removed the named reference (everything inside the tags . Please don't do this as it left many other statements in the article without a reference.
 * Please be careful when you add comments to talk pages, I have moved your comment to its own section as it had been added before Keith's comment above and looked to be attributed to him
 * Finally, please try to phrase your comments in a constructive way. We are all volunteers here, trying to improve the encyclopaedia.  I've been here a long time and have a thick enough skin not to be bothered but it could put off new editors.  Please see Please do not bite the newcomers.  We need to encourage editors, not discourage them, for this project to be a success
 * If you have any queries or need help with editing anywhere please feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, thanks - Dumelow (talk) 05:56, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for making the correction. Your rep roof for the tone is noted and accepted. I am sorry about the links. I will be more careful in future. Have you changed the other page which had this error? I tried changing that but it reverted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gobanian (talk • contribs) 08:37, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks Gobanian, no problem. Yes, I also made the same change on People of Western Europe speech.  Another quick tip: on talk pages if you type ~ after your message it will sign it with your username - Dumelow (talk) 09:09, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
