A belated welcome![edit]

Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, GuyBanks. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions.

Again, welcome! JarrahTree 11:24, 30 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started[edit]

Hi GuyBanks. Thank you for your work on Roscoe Jackson. Another editor, Clearfrienda, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Great job on the article. I suggest nominating it for WP:DYK — it looks very interesting.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Clearfrienda}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

June 2024[edit]

Information icon Hello. In a recent edit to the page Julian Assange, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. You can see on the article talk page that the entire page uses Aussie English. This is also reflected through the spelling. Aaron Liu (talk) 01:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do see that on the talk page now - my apologies! GuyBanks (talk) 01:23, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
