OK, this is my first contribution so I shall re-edit accordingly and hope meet criteria.

Colouring of links
Why are some links coloured blue and some coloured pale purple?

Please can you reply to my page JVSmithson.


 * The links coloured blue are 'fresh links' you have not clicked on them before. The pale blue links are links to the pages you have visited before, and the link colours make it easier for you to distinguish the pages apart.  Cat tle Gir l   talk 07:39, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Don't believe I have done so, so assume this is just friendly advice? JVSmithson 08:27, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Lansdown Crescent & William Beckford
Hi, just a note to ask you to stop linking to Lansdown Crescent - as it is a disambiguation page. The correct link is to Lansdown Crescent, Bath. Thanks you. DuncanHill 23:44, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

Disambiguation
Hi, still a novice so trying to learn - thanks for advice re disambiguation, have just checked round Wikipedia and worked out what it means! Will observe in future. JVSmithson 23:54, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks, if I can help with anything else then just ask - Wikipedia can be VERY confusing at times! DuncanHill 23:59, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
