Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. Your recent edits to the Babington Plot appear to be well written and in good faith, but if they remain unsourced they are liable to be reverted because they materially change the tenets of the article, even though it also suffers from inadequate sourcing. I would advise you to set up your source refernce statements early/soon, then it will not attract attention like this. Good luck, welcome and thanks.

I overwrote what was there because it was redundant, out of order, and seemed basically to talk about how Antonia Fraser felt. The point is to list what happened, not discuss how a biographer speculated about motives. That can be its own page. This should be cogent to the plot itself, and tell a story.Egthegreat (talk) 06:06, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For a little more clarity - the page is about the Babington Plot. Your info about Mary would best be located on the page about Queen Mary. If you can add back the info you liked in a way that is succinct, relevant, non-repetitive, and includes clear grammatical structure, feel free. Egthegreat (talk) 06:19, 13 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
