Your edits to Hundred Years' War

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. Please don't be discouraged because your edit to Hundred Years' War has been reverted: the business of year links only being needed when events in a particular year are under discussion catches many editors. As you spotted, the internal links for House of Plantagenet and House of Valois weren't right, and I've tweaked these as well.

Stick with it! --Old Moonraker (talk) 17:17, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Your edits to The Vertical Hour

The Vertical Hour is on my watchlist: I am not following you! Thanks for updating the broadcast day. I changed the date formats for the page, so that the software can format the dates to suit the user-set preferences—details here—and this was not a revert of your change. All the best. --Old Moonraker (talk) 06:41, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Count of MonteC

Hi Grubbybest, Thanks for your amendment to the Count of Monte Cristo page. I was looking around for the date of Andrew Sachs recording to check and could find no trace. Could you pop me a link so I can attach it - or add one yourself. Are a CoMC fan? Knowledge on the project is sorely needed. Best wishes Spanglej (talk) 20:52, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
