Thanks for your advice
Hi ClemRutter,

I appreciate for giving your wonderful review comments and showing your favor. I was able to send you the questionnaire revised because the questionnaire is long and sending email to you does not work. Here is the last version of the survey. If you do not mind, please give your comments on the new version. cooldenny (talk) 02:42, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Harle Syke & Weavers' Triangle
You’re brave! Just putting a public request for interference with the mills templates out there like that. I specifically avoided mentioning them at any point, because I assume that a> If my template was considered to be rubbish, I worry what those same editors will think of these. And b> the editors that inhabit the deletion forums, are not the sort that you would want to collaborate with. I’m not sure if you saw my last late response on this so I’ll repost it here:


 * Sorry for the delayed response, I seem to have gotten myself involved in several things all at once, and now seem to spend all my time writing on forums and talk pages! Your version of Weavers’ Triangle is looking good – I’ve just made a few minor tweaks that I hope meet with your approval.
 * Unfortunately my collapsible table template was poorly received and has been deleted. During the nomination process User:Frietjes has made changes to Weavers' Triangle and Harle Syke using hidden begin. I’ve had a little experiment on List of mills in Lancashire, it would seem quite simple to use. He has also converted all the references, so I think that might cause a bit of a headache, in merging them back together.
 * On the subject of the Globe Iron Works, take a look at this, I’m not sure how accurate it is, but it’s certainly talking about the same site.--Trappedinburnley (talk) 10:01, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi Clem, would you be able to help here Science and invention in Birmingham please? I'm not sure which approach to take, don't expect you to do the work but would be good to get a second opinion, I may need your help later with pictures etc. By the way, is there a similar article for Manchester? May be a good project for someone if not. P.s. I note your great work on Mills, it's a shame many of the ones in Birmingham are probably long long gone. Old Bess (talk) 19:07, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

gallery edit
I've recently made and uploaded a 3D detailed model of a loom. Just wondered why it got deleted without any given reason

 * The work is beautiful, but there are several reasons why I was so vicious.
 * Gallery sections are discouraged- all the existing images will have to be integrated in the text.
 * There are 124 available images of looms in Commons:Category:Looms
 * You didn't even give your frame loom a caption to explain what it was - or whence it came - the textile it was weaving - both of which would affect the design- no mention of the wood used and its available in the locality.
 * So its a frame loom- but has no provinance and doesn't add to the article
 * Now looking at the frame loom
 * It is incomplete- where is the take up beam
 * How do you operate the healds- there are no peddles, dobby or jacquard head
 * Where are the shuttles- where are the shuttle boxes.
 * All these corrections could be made and the colour changed to represent wood then it could form a useful base diagram to explain the processes --ClemRutter (talk) 01:28, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Whitehurst & Son sundial (1812) - German Version
Thank you very much for this interesting article in the German Wikipedia. I tried to make it even a little better by making some language improvements. My English is not as good as your German! I think the 'Wikipedia Multilingual Challenge! ("The Wright Challenge")' is a very good idea. Please feel free to ask for my help concerning the German Wikipedia or the German language. -- Sciurus (talk) 20:54, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
