Disambiguation link notification for September 27
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ewan Christian, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Hackney and Warkworth (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.

Ewan Christian
Hi Grahamrob, just a quick note to congratulate you on all the great work you've done on Ewan Christian. Let's hope it evades, or survives, the attention of the Wikilawyers! I do mean to go through it at some stage and see what I can add, but I've been very inactive on Wikipedia lately.

I see you refer to the 1896 Cambridge pamphlet on Christian. I've never been able to get hold of a copy of this (I've been interested in Christian since doing a major piece of university work on Holy Trinity, Sunk Island, around a dozen years ago) though I know there's one in the British Library. Is it worth looking out?

 * Hi Grahamrob, thanks for getting back to me. I referred to the Cambridge publication as a pamphlet only because of the low pagination in the BL catalogue. I'll certainly try to find time to get there and read it at some point upon your recommendation.


 * I agree EC remains under-rated. Certainly not a radical and of course an Establishment man in many ways, but much more creative than he is often given credit for, with the technical skills to support that. His friendship with Teulon I think suggests an architect who was not afraid of thinking out of the box (as EC would certainly never have put it!). Barnabypage (talk) 21:41, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

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.

Ewan Christian
Hi, not sure how active you still are on here but I wanted to thank you for your splendid work on Ewan Christian. It's a great article - have you ever thought of GA or FA? I know these "badges" aren't everyone's bag, but they do raise the profile of an article, and increase its readership. All the best. KJP1 (talk) 08:09, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
