Welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for transforming a stub into an informative article. You can format links using double sq brackets "[ [" then actual page name, then a vertical bar "|" then the wording you wish to use in the text, then close sq brackets.

 * Strictly speaking the edits would be better made by someone else with no daytime connection, but you've been above board and honest, and appear to be adding content in a neutral informative way, which is, as far as I can see, in line with general Wikipedia guidelines, so - speaking as the originator of the stub - I personally think it's all good content. If anyone has any concerns you could delete and I'd be quite willing to repost 99.9% the same as 3rd party edits. The only thing I would say is perhaps try and look for third party sources where possible. You may find WP:PSTS helpful. And also try searching on Google Scholar. Cheers.

 * I added a Talk Page to article (click Discussion tab) and entered this into the Anglicanism project (click relevant links on the new article Talk page. I also left a link on the Anglicanism project discussion page inviting other editors to review your/my work. You may wish to enroll as a member in that project and/or contribute to other articles as well. In ictu oculi (talk) 06:17, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the advice, I will try and find third party sources wherever possible and remove any unnecessary links to our website. Many thanks, David.

Photos
The photo of W. H. Griffith Thomas, and a postcard of a Church Association van do indeed seem very appropriate and okay to upload, (and now look good in loco). http://www.churchsociety.org/issues_new/history/griffiththomas/iss_history_griffiththomas_intro.asp http://www.churchsociety.org/aboutus/History/History.asp I don't see any need to go to the extra work of uploading on commons (which has tougher upload rules, but can then be accessed by foreign language wikipedias) but if you do need any help on uploading to commons instead of en.wiki let me know.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
