Lancaster Royal Grammar School article[edit]

Please don't add yourself to the article. Many thanks. -- Fr a ncs2000 22:49, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The page can be protected but it is only a temporary measure. Let's hope first that the warnings have sunk in (I have warned all users involved); if not then we take it up a stage. -- Fr a ncs2000

Re your question[edit]

What do you mean, reply to messages directly? -- Fr a ncs2000 23:04, 12 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What you're doing is fine. If you leave a message on someone's talk page (like this one) they are alerted that they have a new message at the next page load or when they next log on. You can also email users, if they have it enabled in their preferences. -- Fr a ncs2000

Stable belts[edit]

No, no reason whatsoever. I simply hadn't got round to it yet. You'll notice there are a lot of yeomanry regiments yet to do as well. -- Necrothesp 19:23, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
