Talk:Wye College

Untitled
can someone get all my changes back? I made masses and read a whole book on the sage of Wye College. All seems lost because a 'bot' did not like a link to wordpress. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.145.250.41 (talk) 22:26, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

The link to the founder ("John Kempe"), is to the wrong one, it should be the archbishop "John Kemp" (without the e). PJJ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.186.224.227 (talk) 18:28, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

COI
One of 30+ articles created/ edited for pay. I have tagged this for COI; the tag can can come off after an independent editor reviews for NPOV and sourcing. Please leave a note here when you do that. Jytdog (talk) 05:16, 8 May 2015 (UTC) (amended Jytdog (talk) 18:05, 18 May 2015 (UTC))


 * I Batterbu wrote most of this, and I was a humble student there once with no other conflict of interest. I read the book mentioned about the saving of the village. 188.30.193.152 (talk) 17:31, 18 May 2015 (UTC)
 * a) since you are the creator you should not remove the COI tag. b) the COI tag is not due to your editing. Jytdog (talk) 18:05, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

I have deleted the cat for now banned User:Worthywords on the basis none of their 2015 content remains and they are unlikely to come back now that their client has vacated the premises. Ed1964 (talk) 02:22, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
