Talk:Sarah Howells

Schooling
Sarah Howells attended Milford Haven comprehensive school. Of this I am certain as not only did I attend at the same time, I also have written and photographic proof. However I am unable to locate a reference online. There are however a number of easily accessible references to her having grown up in the town from an early age, and the fact that there is only one secondary school in the town does suggest a high probability of the above. Please can anyone suggest a sensible way forward? Alvear24 (talk) 19:25, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

A quick check of her facebook page confirms the above

Then what would you suggest? And please do threaten potential blocking as a result of "Repeatedly adding unsourced information" - I am not in the habit of doing so, and I feel you have not adhered to guidelines such as Assume good faith, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Please_do_not_bite_the_newcomers and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Civility


 * I haven't been uncivil and you aren't a newcomer, so I'm not sure what point you're making. There is already a category for people from Milford Haven. Are you saying we should just assume everyone from Milford haven went to Milford Haven comprehensive school? Sionk (talk) 20:10, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

We will disagree re: your approach. Please bear in mind that heavy handed messages can easliy put people off continuing to edit. Clearly I am not suggesting the above. I have explained that this is not an assumption, merely fact that I am hoping to validate through electronic reference, as yet unlocated Alvear24 (talk) 21:14, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
