My apologies for not responding earlier! I am afraid that as I am new to the Wikipedia community, I hadn't located the messages until I made a contribution today.

Regarding Godwin, I see that you believe that my addition replicated another article. I only attempted to make a contribution because on Wikipedia UK the link from the page on William Godwin to his collection of Essays, The Enquirer, was dead.

I have made a new contribution today because I saw an error in the information provided regarding the first collection of E A Poe's tales as "Tales of Mystery and Imagination". I own the 1902, first edition of "Tales of Mystery and Imagination", printed by The World's Classics, so I know that Padraic Colum was not the first to assemble tales under that title in 1908. However, I may have handled this incorrectly and I now see links to pages to help with article creation that I will use if I have incorrectly edited the page in question.

Regards,

signature

HI I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE SIGNATURE you sign every time by writing (). I would like to have a signature like you, but i do not want write everytime this ('''<font color="blue">), rather, I want sign only by writing (4 of them ~) , so waht can i do? I tried to change in the preferences but it does not work, Thanks Durfhd (talk) 14:37, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Durfhd: The instructions are at WP:SIG#CustomSig. You place the coding into the signature space in your preferences. Then everytime you type four tildes, it will insert that code; you won't need to paste that code in directly on the talk page. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:24, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Billy Longley

I made a minor edit (which I believe I marked as such) to correct a grammatical error on the Billy Longley page. May I ask why you reverted the edit? Jbrucek (talk) 23:51, 5 May 2014 (UTC)jbrucek

Hi Jbrucek and thanks for your message. The reason I reverted your edit was because it changed the meaning of the sentence. Flat Out let's discuss it 10:47, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
