Revision as of 23:08, 3 April 2013
Welcome!
Hello, MdeBohun, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article (using the Article Wizard if you wish)
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Dear MdeBohun, I just wanted to ask you whether you are sure you want the extra things you have added to Dr Lipscomb's page. My feeling is that adding titles (Dr) , school and degree details is nice perhaps when one has a more substantial biography with a longer career. But in a case like this of relatively new academic I feel this somehow weakens the case for having an article. This is just my view and I raise it with you just to ask you to have another think. I won't revert or anything. Best wishes, (Msrasnw (talk) 21:59, 11 October 2011 (UTC))
- Hi - I've again removed your sig. from Dr Lipscomb's article. I think we should only sign things on talk and user pages. Hope this is OK Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 11:13, 12 October 2011 (UTC))
- Dear MdeBohun, would you know if Dr Lipscomb has left UEA and/or started at the NCotH yet? Our article seems a bit ambiguous and she seems to be on both their websites. I can't imagine she is getting two salaries but perhaps! Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 15:35, 13 October 2011 (UTC))
Hello Msrasnw. Suzannah commenced a two-year sabbatical from UEA at the end of September to join NCH: so she is currently employed by NCH, but is still a member of academic staff at UEA, and also a consultant to Historic Royal Palaces and an External Advisory Member on their Research Strategy Board. MdeBohun (talk) 16:03, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks that has cleared that up - I can't think how if at all to put it in and I may be the only one confused by people appearing to be at more than one place at a time. I get easily confused. Best wishes (Msrasnw (talk) 16:37, 13 October 2011 (UTC))
In response to your feedback
For better or for worse, Misplaced Pages has a strict policy in the images it can use. Basically, if it's not released under a license that releases control of it, Misplaced Pages can be sued in some circumstances as the provider of the image.
I, Jethrobot (note: not a bot!) 22:25, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
I have uploaded another photo that belongs to Dr. Suzannah Lipscomb, should the previous one submitted is to be deleted. She doesn't care which one, but she would like one of these two photos on her Wiki page. She owns the photos. The picture on there now is the same as the one on her Twitter page @sixteenthCgirl, If you cannot use one of these two photos uploaded, and that she wishes to be displayed on her page, please use the one that you are already using to show a picture of her when one searches her name Suzannah Lipscomb wiki and the picture of her in a red dress that comes up, which is her previous Twitter avatar.
Orphaned non-free media (File:Dr. Suzannah Lipscomb.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Dr. Suzannah Lipscomb.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:21, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Hello, MdeBohun. We welcome your contributions to Misplaced Pages, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Suzannah Lipscomb, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Misplaced Pages article or website of your organization in other articles (see Misplaced Pages:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Misplaced Pages's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Misplaced Pages when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Hi, I just wanted you to get a heads up that your edit history is as a WP:SPA, and you have also blanked another users page User:Watsonfairmaner which was also another WP:SPA, presumably your old account. As you disclosed (in your edit summary there) that you are somehow linked with Suzannah, I hope you don't mind me pointing out this link WP:COI] so you know how to contribute.
