Hello, I'm Donald Albury. I wanted to let you know that one or more external links you added to Elizabeth Fry have been removed because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page, or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you.

 * Hello Donald,
 * She visited them every time there was a deportation because the deportees were totally traumatised by being taken in uncovered carts and being made a public spectacle with all manner of things thrown at them. Elizabeth Fry appealed the the authorities to provide covered carts and got them. The day and night before deportation before she got started, there was collective terror. As well as getting death penalties commuted to deportation, and sorting the open carts, she actually went with them. This was a fundamental part of her work. I too was astonished to find it. I am giving a talk about her next week as it is her birthday on 21 May. Oma-Clare (talk) 02:30, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You need to provide citations to one or more reliable sources that support that content in order to add it to the article. Donald Albury 17:20, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

I cannot find any mention of Elizabeth Fry visiting transportation ships in the source that you provided for your edit on that topic, and have marked it as Failed verification. Any time you are citing a longer work, please provide page number(s), if available, or when there are no page numbers, as in an e-book, a chapter or section heading or other means of narrowing down the location of the content you are citing as a source. I have formatted the source you gave for the content you added to the Prison reform and prisoner reformation section. Please take a look at the guideline Citing sources. While you are not expected to get all the details of citation formatting down pat (there are plenty of gnomes who deal with that kind of stuff), the more information you can provide about a source, the easier it is for the rest of us to follow up on your work. - Donald Albury 18:29, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
