DYK for Herbert Bullmore

On 19 July 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Herbert Bullmore, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that before Herbert Bullmore practised medicine in Sydney, Australia, he was a blue in football and rowing at the University of Edinburgh, and represented Queensland and then Scotland in rugby? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Herbert Bullmore. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Hunkerin'

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Hunkerin', is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Hunkerin

You're right of course. The article had been tagged as a hoax by another editor, and at first glance it appeared so implausible that I lazily assumed that the tagging was correct without checking the details of the article. I've looked again, and I was clearly in error. I've restored the article now, and I can only offer my apologies, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:09, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We've all done the Friday evening bit! Just glad this has been sorted quickly and with no lasting damage, if only all Wikipedia disputes were so easily resolved... Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:38, 2 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry...

The only excuse I can offer is that it was late at night and I was eager to click the "csd" button in Twinkle. At first glance, it appeared to be a hoax, but when I looked back I realized that it wasn't. I'm a relatively new editor, but there's still no excuse to post an automated and impersonal note like that. My bad. Mrmewe (talk) 14:30, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
