WP:Kindness Campaign

 * Goodness me, thanks, Thomprod! Only the 2nd ever Barnstar that I've received, so I'm thrilled.  You'll have gathered I recently a wounding experience, and this has certainly mollified me.  I hope you have looked at some of my earlier work too.  There are articles that I'm quite proud of creating and editing.  I am indeed a fellow piano player and can see from your User page that you are too.  You're incredibly active; what an array of boxes.  How do I start to learn about putting those things onto my User page?  Can you advise?


 * Have a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year! FClef (talk) 23:53, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

Userboxes

 * You're welcome. Take a look here for a general overview and directions on how to make a Userbox from scratch.  There is a gallery of existing ones here that you can just copy to your own Userpage. They are certainly not necessary for your work on Wikipedia, but a nice way to show other editors what your interests and skills are.  Enjoy! --Thomprod (talk) 01:47, 2 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Interestingly, I don't see a userbox on Astronomy - or perhaps one saying "This User loves the Cosmos." I would organise one, but don't have the tech knowhow.  Can you do that? FClef  (talk) 15:09, 2 January 2012 (UTC)


 * How about this one, made with the code ? --Thomprod (talk) 16:24, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Court of Chancery
Thanks for your addition to the Court of Chancery article. Could you go back and format the citations so that they match the style used in the rest of the article? I'm happy to do it if you want, but I don't want to step on your toes :). Ironholds (talk) 14:17, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the lovely note, too! Totally understand; things are busying up here, too. I'm happy to format them at my end :). Do you have any objection to me seeing if I can weave it into the existing history as well? It's, to almost steal a line from Lucas, a little short for a full section.

It is called a Blessing
You don't have to rant on my talk page about their past, affairs or whatever, again as i said the event is called a blessing because the archbishop blessed their marriage, the prayer was only part of it, that is what it was called even in the media...obviously you are the only who see it as a confession event. Also the prayer is not needed on Wikipedia, it is irrelevant, it can be found in the book, no need to put it there. you've been on Wikipedia for so long and you are now editing the wedding page which has been here for over 10 years. I wont argue with you on the page, its unnecessary since you are determine to write their wedding as a confession event, adding more sources and all. (Monkelese (talk) 17:56, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

Virginia Bosler
I reverted your March 2016 edit to Virginia Bosler. left a message on my talk page that the Virginia Bosler on the find-a-grave that you cited is a different women. Also, there is now a statement on the find-a-grave page stating that Bosler was not an actress. I noticed also that you cited an ebay auction item. I believe ebay listings disappear after a few months. Bix27 said that s/he had more info - see Bix27's talk on my page. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 06:58, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Virginia Bosler
I thought it was kind of funny when a friend in LA emailed the Wikipedia bio, thinking I'd been holding back some interesting facts about my mother! I was tempted to let it ride for awhile, but my fondness for truth and history won out.

I found her current last name by clicking on her maiden name on the Wikipedia bio for Agnes de Mille. The name Doris came up in parenthesis. Then fueled by late night gin, I just started Googling and going through page after page, clicking on anything that looked promising. There was an old site that had an interview she did back in the 80's when she was going by Virginia "Winkie" Doris. To watch it you had to join, so I didn't watch it. I found a couple of obituaries for her husband, Hubert Alexander Doris, who died in 2008, in which she was mentioned. And I found some site about the town of Hancock, Maine, that had her address. I didn't keep track of any of the links, I'm sorry to say. So good luck with your research!

This marked by debut and swan song on Wikipedia, so excuse my clumsy technique. I'm very bad with tech stuff.

Again, good luck -
