Alan Dufty edit - thank you
Hi Graham,
Just figured out how to reply on here and wanted to thank you for the edit you did some time ago on the Alan Dufty article. Alan is a friend of mine and he did not know or could not remember all the dates and competitions that you skillfully collected. He was impressed and is happy so that makes two of us. Thank you again and all the best. Analytical Historian. Analytical Historian (talk) 09:47, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

Links to online communities
Hi Graham, I know that some Page Managers have a problem with me putting links to a rare disease online community as an external link on a rare disease Misplaced Pages page. But so far it has been about 5% of all links I have added that express a problem. So your interpretation of the Misplaced Pages Policy is just your opinion. And since you have a lot more experience on Misplaced Pages, I respect your opinion and many contributions, but disagree here. When a family is diagnosed with a rare disease, the first thing they do is go to Google. A lot of times, the limited Misplaced Pages article on the disease appears as a top result. While reading through that article, I want to add a link to the communities to let people know there are other patients they can connect with. Many times that thought does not even cross their mind. They read medical information above their comprehension and get depressed and never find others. So that's why I add a link to the communities. If it gets me banned, I'm okay with that. Thanks for reading. Final note: I work for a charity, all of these community links I add do not make us any money or give information to 3rd parties. They are just for international rare disease patient conversations. Do you know how hard it is to find someone else to ask questions when you have a rare disease?

Onslow compared to Schubert
As you recommended, I compared George Onslow to Franz Schubert. Both are known by a shorter name than the birth name. In Schubert's case, there's a middle name, fine, I understand. In Onslow's case, there's a preceding name in straight brackets and a middle name without brackets. I don't recall any article starting with a straight bracket and find it irritating, also don't understand why one of the extra names is in such brackets but not the other. The article is under expansion, and I trust that there will be more of a lead eventually, explaining, right, Smerus? Then I will look again. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:14, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt:. I agree the lead needs expanding. As regards the name, I presented it as it is in Grove - it implies, as I understand it, that the 'André' was never used. But if this is confusing, delete the square brackets by all means. Best, --Smerus (talk) 16:24, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- I observe 1RR rather religiously ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:28, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Smerus and Gerda Arendt: A better example would probably have been Paul McCartney. I've never encountered brackets being used for this purpose on Misplaced Pages either, but I have no strong opinion on whether they should be present. Graham87 00:55, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Now compare Gwyneth Jones and see why I think McCartney is "wrong": an honorifix prefix or suffix such as "Sir", "Lady", "Dr." is not part of the "name" as defined as an infobox parameter, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:07, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yes, I don't feel too strongly about that either ... I prefer to leave that up to the editors of the article. Graham87 08:05, 16 September 2014 (UTC)
- Jones was improved, and I followed that example for John Eliot Gardiner. Problem is {{infobox musical artist}} not supporting "honorific prefix" yet, as {{infobox person}} does. (People are working on it.) I use "person" for all people, remembering this edit which made me smile in an unforgettable way. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:51, 16 September 2014 (UTC)

Re: Your reversion
Hi.
I deeply and sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that I caused you. It was entirely my fault. I intended to revert to your revision, not over your revision. It has never happened before and I assure you, I will do my best to make sure it never ever happens again.
I hope you'll find the current state of affairs to your liking.
Best regards,

FOXP1 page - edit 08SEP
Hi there,
I noticed that the FOXP1 page was edited a few weeks ago to remove a link to an external support group that I helped set up. This group, hosted by RareConnect, has been very successful at helping bring families together that are dealing with FOXP1 mutations. The link from Misplaced Pages has been instrumental in driving this, and I'd love to restore the link. I understand there's a policy about external links - can you help me understand how to revise the link to our group so that it conforms to the policy and can stay on the wikipedia page? For now, I'm just going to suggest an "undo" to the edit, but I recognize that this is not a real solution.
Thanks for your help Karl 01:29, 29 September 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karlitoes99 (talk • contribs)
