I am prepared to compromise with you over the [[Clan Agnew]] article. But there are some changes that you need to make. Firstly, you need to add a page number to the reference: "The Hereditary Sheriffs of Galloway by Sir Andrew Agnew of Lochnaw 8th Bt, 2nd Ed Edinburgh 1893". Then I should be able to verify it. Secondly, the reference "HM Register House, Crown Office Writs No. 4" is a primary source and thus constitutes [[Wikipedia:No original research]]. As Wikipedia only allows secondary published sources, and so this can be removed. Thirdly, you need to learn how to properly format all those website references you have added. Fourthly, you have not added a reference for the sentence "Hector McDonnell suggests that the O'Gnimhs and the Agnews descend from Alastair (d.1299), second son of Domhnall (d. 1249), son of Raghnall (d. 1207), son of Somerled, Lord of the Isles (d. 1164).This would give the Agnews a shared origin with the Clan Donald". Any unsourced information can be removed.[[User:QuintusPetillius|QuintusPetillius]] ([[User talk:QuintusPetillius|talk]]) 17:02, 8 August 2016 (UTC) |

From: BLG1952 Thank you for your conciliatory message. As you note I am not an experienced Wikipedia editor and I am still trying to find out how I can access a discussion page as you suggested I should have done before editing Clan Agnew. I will attend to the edits you suggest when I next have time. I will give page and chapter references from the Hereditary Sheriffs; I can quote a secondary academic source that refers to the Crown Writ; The reference to Hector McDonnell "suggests" I thought was adequately references having cited his article in the earlier reference - in one of the edits you undid, I had put in "Hector McDonnell suggests, in Agnews and O'Ghimhs, that ...", but it disappeared in our unfortunate disagreements. Can you please point me to how I should correct the website references. Best wishes. |

[edit]Hello, I'm Denisarona. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Southern Patagonian Ice Field without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Clan Agnew
[edit]I am prepared to compromise with you over the Clan Agnew article. But there are some changes that you need to make. Firstly, you need to add a page number to the reference: "The Hereditary Sheriffs of Galloway by Sir Andrew Agnew of Lochnaw 8th Bt, 2nd Ed Edinburgh 1893". Then I should be able to verify it. Secondly, the reference "HM Register House, Crown Office Writs No. 4" is a primary source and thus constitutes Wikipedia:No original research. As Wikipedia only allows secondary published sources, and so this can be removed. Thirdly, you need to learn how to properly format all those website references you have added. Fourthly, you have not added a reference for the sentence "Hector McDonnell suggests that the O'Gnimhs and the Agnews descend from Alastair (d.1299), second son of Domhnall (d. 1249), son of Raghnall (d. 1207), son of Somerled, Lord of the Isles (d. 1164).This would give the Agnews a shared origin with the Clan Donald".
