Well spotted Maureen. The History suggests that this link was put on by Valmay in September 2007. I have substituted the Wikipedia link.--[[User:Symorsebrown|Sy]] 04:48, 13 January 2010 (PST) | |||
Revision as of 12:48, 13 January 2010
New articles
Hi Maureen. Here are those links (so that you can access them quickly):
Sarahb 08:44, 2 June 2009 (PDT)
Lawrence schools
I thought that you had added enough info now to warrant these having their own page. I have titled it Lawrence Military Asylum with redirects from Lawrence School, Lawrence College etc. Sarah 11:39, 17 November 2009 (PST)
Tibet Expedition
Hi Maureen. Thanks for adding the review of the Charles Allen book to my Tibet Expedition page. Do you think we should have the review in the external links and the book itself under the heading Recommended Reading? If you do, I will be happy to change it.
The expedition was a fascinating saga and the letters of Capt. Mainprise are really vivid. I wish we could find some images to add. The one I found was shot down by Sarah as copyright. There are many war pages which could benefit from a contemporary photo. Regards.--Sy 07:18, 11 December 2009 (PST)
Date/time
Maureen, you can tinker with the time zone settings by going to 'my preferences' (top right of window), then selecting 'Date and time'. Server time is the current UK time. However, I've just noticed from previewing my comment that the time is wrong for me too, so there must be a problem with the wiki setup somewhere (as it is correct in the preferences). I'll forward to Valmay, but I don't if it is an easy fix. Sarah 06:02, 14 December 2009 (PST)
Vets
Well, how funny. I thought it must surely be a copypaste typo! I've reverted, but have left Health off as I do think it seems a bit strange in that category. You can find it in health via the IMS anyway. You should add that info into the article as it is interesting. You've probably noticed I reorganised into sections a bit like the Apothecary article.

Non-Brit Ancestors
Was on my to do list but is now done! Sarah 13:41, 22 December 2009 (PST)
Scholars/Antiq
Please ignore the edit summary I included when restoring the article - I only read your message after doing so there fore didn't know what had happened. I can only guess that what you have done sometimes is view an old version of the article and then save it. If you are looking at a previous version and then click Edit, it will actually edit that old version that you are viewing and so when you save, any subsequent changes are reverted. To return to the current version, click Article and then it is safe to go to the Edit screen. If you are on an old version it should say "WARNING: You are editing an out-of-date revision of this page. If you save it, any changes made since this revision will be lost" at the top of the edit screen.
If this wasn't the problem we'll have to have another think. Sarah 12:35, 5 January 2010 (PST)
3rd Light Dragoons
Sorry Maureen. It seems I have jumped the gun again. I'll have a search to see what I can dig up on a separate regiment.--Sy 02:07, 7 January 2010 (PST)

Historical books online
Hi Maureen. Could you please use the following format/layout when adding historical books online.
- The India List and India Office List 1905 Google Books
- Lives of Indian Officers: Illustrative of the History of the Civil and Military Service of India Volume 1 by John William Kaye (1867) gives, from page 45, the background to the Civil Service
Many thanks --FIBIS Webmaster 06:32, 11 January 2010 (PST)
