Harris's List of Covent Garden Ladies
What is your problem? The image is dated "before 1794" not "1794", and various indications in the image strongly suggest the 1780s. I would rather not have added that image to the article in the first place than have its caption falsified. If you know nothing about dating images by styles worn therein, then why don't you defer to those who have acquired considerable practical expertise in the matter, backed up by sources when necessary.

 * Click the link given in the file's description. It says 1794, not "before 1794".  Furthermore, the image also contains the date "1794" - not "before 1794". Parrot of Doom 12:04, 8 May 2014 (UTC)

Moors murders
Please explain why my recent edits, which you so perfunctorily reverted as "not improvements" are not in fact improvements. Thank you.--ukexpat (talk) 14:13, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Grammatically they're worse than what already existed, and you changed the citation formatting without any prior consensus. That's why. Parrot of Doom 17:29, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Your edit on Meddle
Removing a with no explanation is hardly proper behaviour. --31.172.179.174 (talk) 15:11, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Adding a cn in the lead when you've not noticed that the body of the article has a properly sourced sentence or two on the point is hardly proper behaviour either. Given the choice of the sourced sentence or your personal detective skills, I prefer the sourced sentence. BencherliteTalk 15:19, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
