Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited John Percival Morton, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Indian Police. 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.

Bruce Belfrage
Hi, and thanks for your very useful recent edits on Bruce Belfrage. However, I had some difficulty with some of your citations and thought I'd ask you to consider reviewing them before my jumping in with remedial action. For instance, here you provide ".[1] which appears to lack specificity, or any help in accessing the reference or its page number. In fact "auto1" is used three times and possibly requires a page number each time. Your second citation (Liberal candidates in 1950) is OK and covers St Johns and modern languages. I would suggest including the page number (p.10). Likewise, a page number would be useful for the citation of One man in his time. Again, here, the ref "[2]" leads to an uninformative page, having no value as verification. Similarly, the bomb episode citation could benefit from having the relevant title included ("BH becomes casualty of war") Enough for now but I promise to give what assistance I can in helping you to improve this article. My interest comes from the fact that in the 1970s I was part of Joyce's first media class at Macquarie. Cheers, Bjenks (talk) 16:37, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

Tony Claydon
Hi. I recently added a couple of new people to the OBMs page, Profs McFarlane and Claydon. I haven't put a reference for Tony Claydon's education at Bedford Modern, he was a year or maybe two below me, because the only online source for his education at the School I can find is on his Facebook page. I'm assuming a FB citation wouldn't be an acceptable reference for Wikipedia guidelines. I'll have to leave it because I can't find anything else.Ndstead (talk) 22:54, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
