but...
Thank you for your edit to Irish issue in British politics. You will see that I had to revert it, not because there was anything seriously wrong with it, but only that it was in the wrong place. Policy WP:LEAD says that the introductory section (the "lead") should summarise the body, but there is nothing in the body about Henry VIII or Elizabeth I (or indeed anything before the 18th Century, such as War of the Three Kingdoms or the Glorious Revolution). So such would have to be written first. If you do decide to have another go, don't forget that the article is about British politics, not Irish politics – so you would have to demonstrate how Henry's and Elizabeth's wars in Ireland had a political effect in Great Britain. Most importantly, you have to provide supporting evidence for what you write, see WP:citing sources. Don't worry about your first attempt being rejected, we learn from our mistakes and we've all been there. So, again, welcome! --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:32, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

Royal Artillery
Thanks for contributing to the article Royal Artillery. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). If you need further help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse, or just ask me. Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 22:59, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
