Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Campbell Bridges, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Jezebel'sPonyo ^shhh 13:55, 10 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Dear Beo2010 -

The Helpme template that you posted here -->> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ponyo is misplaced, I have removed it because it is on the wrong page. The Helpme template should be placed at the top of whatever page you are working on that you need help with (I think that it is a page about a 'Campbell Bridges'?)
Also, when you post on someone else's Talkpage, there's no need to just post whatever at the top of their page (like you did with Ponyo's). If it's a new section, just hit the tab 'new section' at the top of the talkpage, post your query and your query will be placed in order(and put automatically at the bottom of the page).

{{Template:Helpme}} templates should be used only on your own talk page. To answer your question, I don't see any references used by you to back-up the information you added. Also as Ponyo pointed out, if you think, that the edit could be controversial it is best to discuss it first.

Feel free to ask other editors when in doubt. You can also find help at #wikipedia-en-help ^connect.--Forty two^{the answer?} 13:47, 23 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I attempted to correct the wiki page for Campbell Bridges and the vast majority of the edits and updates I made were excluded. I did back up the information with outside sources so I do not understand why this happened. The information currently on the wiki page for Campbell Bridges is incorrect and incomplete. Campbell Bridges was not from Scotland. He never lived anywhere except Africa. Please advise. I would like to update this page so that it is both accurate and and more complete. Thanks.
