Hi, Kenneth Shabby, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay.

You may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset.

If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions.

For help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style.

If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ.

If you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)!

There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library.

Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal.

Feel free to post questions on my user talk page or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.

If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you. You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.

You may want to add yourself to the new user log.

If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

On IRC, check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.

If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Hi. When you recently edited Sol Campbell, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Plaistow, London (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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ivy Chimneys, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages M25 and M11.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Enfield, New South Wales, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Enfield. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Information icon Hello, I'm Danners430. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, GWR 5700 Class, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Danners430 (talk) 15:51, 30 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

I didn't realise that every single fact has to be supported. There are a number of photos of 9600 on Flickr which clearly show the late BR crest on the tanks. My own photos and memory are clear this was the case on 19/2/71.
I can't really bother to get more excited about this and try to provide a photo or a link. Kenneth Shabby (talk) 16:40, 30 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Flickr photos fall under WP:UGC and your own memories are WP:OR. Unless there are reliable sources, such changes in information don't belong on wikipedia. Danners430 (talk) 16:47, 30 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that one or more recent edit(s) you made did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:02, 3 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Kenneth Shabby, I’m noticing that you’re still not using edit summaries. All edits, including minor edits, should half a quick summary so your fellow editors can see what’s been changed. Danners430 (talk) 21:14, 19 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Brisbane Road

Wondering what your reasoning for this edit was. Seasider53 (talk) 15:24, 22 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

It is normally shown as east London by people like The Times and the BBC for example. Also, East London is a port in South Africa and there is nowhere called East London in the UK.
Hope this helps. Kenneth Shabby (talk) 17:20, 22 November 2025 (UTC)Reply
