Information icon Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 22:44, 14 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Post office in city articles

[edit]

Generally, post offices are not included in City articles unless it is either historic or a facility such that it is a major employer. In either of those cases, it would not be discussed in the government section. A good rule of thumb is, if every city has one, don't write about it. Also, please see the links below for what to do when an edit you make gets reverted by another editor. Thanks and happy editing! Gtwfan52 (talk) 02:11, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is being posted on your Talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss issues and respond to questions. At the end of each message you will see a signature left by the editor posting. This is done by signing with four ~~~~ or by pressing or in the editing interface tool box, located just above the editing window (when editing). Do not sign edits that you make in the articles themselves as those messages will be deleted, but only when using the article talkpage, yours or another editor's talkpage. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance and contact information.
