When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this: The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature. When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

I hope you enjoy your time on Wikipedia! -Localzuk (talk) 19:31, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Adding Footnotes
Thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. I have noticed, however, that several articles you have created or edited do not present the correct footnote labeling.

Each footnoted text should present a   tag in the text area, and the corresponding footnote in the reference area should be labeled with a    tag. Apparently you are using the same   tag in both the text and reference areas, and as a result, the links don't work. Please check Footnotes for the correct usage of footnotes. Thanks. --HYC 08:03, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Genealogy wiki
I have moved copies of your biographies to: http://genealogy.wikia.com/wiki/George_Washington_Martin_II_(1876-1948)

The advantage is that you can link to articles on non encyclopedic people in the family, and you can upload all the original documents. Write me an email from my user page. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 20:23, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for January 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Basil Montagu, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Richard Martin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
