Re: HMS Lawford (K514)
Hi there. Thanks for adding HMS Lawford (K514). I did notice that you intended to redirect the page to HMS Lawford, so I added a #REDIRECT tag. For more information on using redirects, please see Help:Redirect. Thanks a million, and keep up the great work. =) -- slakr  04:19, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Avoid conflicts of interest
Greetings! Based on examining your edits, I thought that I should point to the Wikipedia policy about conflicts of interest. You should generally avoid editing/creating articles for products in which you're primarily involved in their creation, in order to help maintain the neutral point of view that is a Wikipedia objective. Cheers! Craw-daddy 15:56, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Essay Format
Hi David, have you read wikipedia's WP:Manual of Style? The essay format is typically frowned upon in favor of a more encyclopedic writing style. Many wikipedians believe that essay style articles lend themselves to a non-neutral point of view. Just a friendly note. Happy editing.--Torchwood Who? (talk) 09:08, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 2
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited HMS Pelican (1812), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Topsham (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:05, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Naval Wargames Society


The article Naval Wargames Society has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing General notability guideline nor the more detailed Notability (companies) requirement. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of 'This article meets criteria A and B because...' and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
