Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Dead Parrot sketch, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you.

Fen Tigers
I have removed your entry on the Fen Tigers disambiguation page that referred to them as being people from East Anglia. This is because:
 * the citation you gave did not support the statement
 * the citation is not a reliable source because it is a personal website (I'm not saying that it is your personal site)
 * there are numerous references in books to Fenslodgers/Gyrvii/Breedlings etc and I've yet to find one that specifically refers to the Fens of East Anglia, although plenty refer to the fens of Lincolnshire. And the ones in Lincolnshire seem never to be referred to as Fen Tigers.

If you can find a reliable source then feel free to enter the information again. I'll keep an eye on the page and please feel free to contact me if you need any help or advice regarding this. - Sitush (talk) 09:29, 18 April 2011 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, please do not add promotional material to articles or other Wikipedia pages, as you did to Wareham, Dorset. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.
