 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring or sock puppetry
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Louisburg cannon
Here is what Tim Wallace-Murphy, a supporter of the Sinclair hypothesis, wrote about the cannon and Andrew Sinclair's claims: ". Firstly, while the original design was Venetian, it was also manufactured and used by the Portuguese and the French, and far from being used only in the timespan stated by Andreww, was in common use by the navies and merchahntships of both Portugal and France until the mid-sixteenth century.The Cannon in Nova Scotia were French in origin and have absolutely nothingto do with either Earl Henry or Venice. They are identical in style andmanufacture to the numerous other examples found further south in thepresent USA, which are all relics of French exploration and attempted settlement." And this doesn't deal with the possibility of an old cannon being used as ballast, still being in use, etc. I've got more about this somewhere by a cannon expert.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Scottish Socialist Party, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 07:37, 30 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Materialscientist, thanks for your message! I've re-added it with what I think should be the right link. The article lists names who haven't held those posts for over two years. Looking to bring it up to date with those edits.
