User talk:SpellingGuru#Please stop

Please review Wiki policy on British and American spelling. You should be aware that British spelling is completely acceptable in English Wikipedia and should not be converted mindlessly to American spelling. The general rule is consistency, an article should be all British or all American and the subject matter, a British topic normally uses British spelling and American topic uses American, otherwise the spelling of the starter of the article should prevail.

As per your request here, List of ship names of the Royal Navy (O-Q) is missing HMS Orange. Kind regards, Benea (talk) 02:04, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the update. I've already revised the section you have indicated.

In your edits to battle class articles (e.g. Admiral class battleship), I don't understand why you are removing the metric calibre of of some guns (e.g. 6 pdr, 3 pdr), but leaving the unreliable convert template for larger calibre weapons.--Toddy1 (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Although many of your formatting changes to battleship articles are fine, please stop until you've had a chance to discuss the changes at WT:SHIPS or WT:MOS or both. When you make 100 changes with one edit, then other people make changes after that so that your changes can't be reverted, it's a real pain to have to go through by hand putting each thing back the way it was. In particular, I notice you're getting rid of non-breaking spaces ... was there any consensus for that at WT:MOS? - Dank (push to talk) 13:19, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

:Just a note, the discussion moved [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Dank&oldid=370775370#North_Caronlina_revert here]. - Dank (push to talk) 13:26, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

25px Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button File:Insert-signature.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 11:55, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

:Duh, cuz I forgot, :-(

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:30, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
