Disambiguation link notification (for ClemRutter)
Hi, this message is to let you know about disambiguation links you've recently created. A link to a disambiguation page is almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.

List of mills
I just found your List of mills in Oldham. Nice work. I created a similar list for my hometown a few years ago: List of mills in Fall River, Massachusetts. There is a lot that can be learned from each other. So much great history that needs to be told. Cheers! --Marcbela (talk) 11:58, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Exactly- it is not so much lost history but deliberately buried history. Parents hid the facts from their children instead of being proud to have been part of world changing industry. They are linked into Category:Lists of textile mills in the United Kingdom- and I have now built up a standard tree linking them all together. Keep up the good work, and when you are passing by, pop in for a coffee.--ClemRutter (talk) 14:48, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

science and invention article
It was largely a cut and paste job that I did in splitting the article. There are probably some raw edges that need tidying up. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:43, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Frindsbury
Hi Clem,

The problem I have is that Hasted states that the church was returned to the bishop in 1185 but a previous editor had quoted 1256. After calculating the dates (Hasted gives them in regnal years), I still don't see a reference to 1256. I don't have a copy of Barnard to hand (most of my editing is lunch time with other odd edits while waiting for systems to boot), and so cannot check out the reference. Is Barnard reliable? I'm sorry if putting the citation needed flag on the date was a mistake, I'll write up the issue on the talk page if you prefer.

There seems to have been very little work on Frindsbury recently until I started to pull it into shape. I have made a start moving All Saints out as a separate article, currently it is in my sandbox being worked upon. Is this a good idea? Would you prefer that I left it alone for a while whilst you had a chance to edit?

 * I've created the new All Saints page and linked it in with Frindsbury. As a matter of courtesy you might like to know I have included one of your images from Wikimedia Commons in it. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 17:31, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
