== RE:Captcha crapola ==

No, I don't mind you asking questions. Eventually CAPTCHA will go away after you edit the wiki enough. If you refresh your browser, that should allow you to try the CAPTCHA again without losing your edits. Or simply click the back button.

Sorry, didn't realise I was causing a problem. Anyway, I have now edited the Operation Newbridge timeline into a single section called "Peter and Pals" -- I think it's still far too long, but I can't see how to cut it without losing the 'gist' of the situation. Ruthless editz (or suggestions for edits) are therefore welcomed.[[User:Sidecar|Sidecar]] 13:58, 15 February 2014 (EST)

I actually sat down and read absolutely bloody everything that you've written about dear old Uncle Jim and his pedo-pals, last night. The whole article, all the subpages and links, everything. All I can say is fantastic. Absolutely sterling work. - [[User:Cleveland Bay II - Return Of Cleveland Bay|Cleveland Bay II - Return Of Cleveland Bay]] 13:14, 2 March 2014 (EST)

== New article note ==

You've been doing a fine job at editing, but one thing to keep in mind: when you make new articles such as [[William Hague‎]], you should always start them [[User:Sidecar/William Hague‎|in your user space]] to prevent ED from being filled with unfinished articles. Then when its finished, just [[User_talk:Dbaggins|ask an editor to move it for you]]{{User:Dbaggins/Template:Sig}} 00:41, 25 February 2014 (EST)

Oh I beg yr pardon -- I had actually read that rule, but completely forgot it. I shall abide by it in future. [[User:Sidecar|Sidecar]] 00:43, 25 February 2014 (EST)

== RE:New pages (uncategorised) ==

* "[[Operation Fairbridge]]" has been moved to "[[Jimmy Savile/Operation Fairbridge]]"
* "[[Operation: Yewtree]]" has been moved to "[[Jimmy Savile/Operation Yewtree]]"

As for [[William Hague]], there isn't rule that articles must be created in the userspace, the bureaucrats have stated that numerous times. In fact, almost every article on ED is created in the mainspace. If you still want me to move it to your userspace that's fine but you're more than welcome to work in the mainspace.

:OK, thanks. Question: If I continue to create/edit in mainspace, how do I make sure that new pages get categorised? Do I have to raise it with a sysop, or is there some automatic "new page" alert system of which I know nothing? [[User:Sidecar|Sidecar]] 09:15, 25 February 2014 (EST)

Thank you for your encouragement. Have been away. It's nice to know I'm writing things that people find interesting, but I don't want to stand accused of "taking it all too seriously". Please batter me into submission if you detect any sign of such a mentality developing. I'd like to re-embark by writing an article about the Conservative Party's ubertroll Enoch Powell, which has the potential to be quite inflammatory. My question though: Is he still 'current' enough (outside of far-right splinter-group ideologies) to warrant ED immortalisation?

Also, I like the template, but the way it reads left to right appears to indicate that Fairbridge came before Yewtree, when the reverse was the case. A minor point, but it irritates my sense of order. Can it be changed? Will check back in a day or two. [[User:Sidecar|Sidecar]] 16:37, 12 April 2014 (EDT)
