Copyright problem
Hi John - even if you write something elsewhere, you can't copy it here without clearing up the copyright problem. I don't know who owns the copyright for your about.com material, but see Donating copyrighted materials. There are a couple of other potential problems with your edits I'm afraid. They boil down to the question of whether they can be sourced from sources that discuss Staple Hill and do these sources meet our criteria. See WP:Verify and WP:RS, and please also read WP:NOR. Finally there is 'tone'. When you edit here, imagine you are writing for the Britannica. Avoid hyperbole, the use of 'we', and for places try to avoid the article becoming a tourist guide. I've removed the copyright material that was obvious, and replaced the bit about the origin of the word. I'm not at all sure that the 'Stapulhul' (if I recall the spelling right) found elsewhere might not have been found here - there's an example, you can't say that it is the original spelling without areliable source, and you can't speculate about why it isn't in the Domesday Book without a source because that is original research. Most good editors start off making mistakes - I had problems with 'original research' for a while, for instance. Dougweller (talk) 15:48, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
