Your recent edits
[edit] 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 could also click on the signature button
or

Talk:Gainsborough Rural District
[edit]I have removed your addition at Talk:Gainsborough Rural District. That page is for discussion and development of the corresponding page about the Gainsborough Rural District. I don't see how a description of engraving machines belongs there. Please see the Talk page guidelines. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:41, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
Please stop
[edit] I believe you are not here to build an encyclopedia, the aim of all editing at this site. You appear to be using this page to write some kind of product manual. Please find a different web site to do this. Wikipedia is not a free web host. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:06, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
