Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Bryan Charnley, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(talk)  12:40, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with... restoring the text on Bryan Charnley's Wikipedia entry. I cannot contact or find the administrator/sysops who did this in spite of examining the edit history. The problem seems to have arisen when I wanted to put an image up of Bryan Charnley Self Portrait 13. An administrator/sysops thought I did not have copyright clearance and deleted everything up to that point!!! I have since taken the image down and no longer want it to appear on Bryan Charnley's Wikipedia entry. Unfortunately the text, which is far more important, has been reduced to a stub. Please, please can you restore the original Wikipedia page on Bryan Charnley. It is currently crucially important the entry is complete as The National Portrait gallery and the Wellcome Collection have been directed to this page while they consider acquiring the paintings.
