You have been adding some excellent details to the Norwood Green article. Don't be offended if other users edit what you have written. The links above will give you some information about how to add relevant information to even more articles. There is a project to get good articles for all places in London and it would be great to have more details for articles on places in the London Borough of Ealing and thereabouts which are currently only very short.

Strictly external links are for additional information about the specific subject, ie the BGA. However I have left the Shenington as it is for the moment. Why not add a brief Wikipedia article about Shenington GC? See Lasham Airfield as an example. JMcC 13:37, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Take a look at my first attempt at Shenington Gliding Club and fill in blanks and correct errors. It seems that it is OK to have articles about an organisation, but don't add phone numbers or prices! JMcC 10:42, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

{help me}

I goofed with my last edit of Norwood Green.

I added correct info about Village Day but in the process I lost a lot of earlier good edits. I could not see a way to restore the previous version and start again. I am sure it is blindingly obvious but... DOuG 18:55, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

"undo" did it of course! DOuG 19:06, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:45, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
