rollback
You clearly rolled back my edit (which was discussed on the talk page) because I edited as an IP address. You reverted without comment 1 minute after I edited. Somehow I reckon if I'd been logged into my administrator account you wouldn't have done that! 90.252.190.223 (talk) 21:52, 1 August 2020 (UTC)
- Looking at the edit, I actually have no idea I did that. I always leave an edit summary when using Huggle and my best bet is that I misadvertendly pressed the r key twice. However if I'm honest, it is King's College Hospital and not facility, so perhaps that would be more sutiable. Apologies for any inconveniences caused. (P.S. I doubt you are an admin, but if you were it probably wouldn't have made a difference as I rarely look at the user field) — Yours, Berrely • ∕Contribs 17:44, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
- We then end up with Kings College Hospital is a hospital, which is ugly. I was trying to get rid of the 'acute health care facility' as it's an awful Americanism to describe an NHS teaching hospital. 90.252.190.223 (talk) 21:35, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Correct warning
Was this really the warning you intended to issue? WikiDan61ReadMe!! 18:29, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
- WikiDan61, no it isn't, I meant to click the inappropriate external links button but it seems I misclicked. I'll correct it as soon a possible. Thanks for bringing it up! — Yours, Berrely • ∕Contribs 18:31, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
