Catherine Hanley

Hi there. Thanks for your message on my talk page. Don't worry about the tags on Catherine Hanley. It is normal for a new article to get a few tags put on it and these are only the yellow ones (less serious issues). The purpose of the tags is to flag up things that need doing. As you address the issues you can take the tags off. These may have been issues that you already knew about and were preparing to address but there was no way for me to know that. Quite a lot of people create new articles and don't realise that these things need to be done so I feel that it is better to tell somebody something they already know than to risk not telling somebody something they don't know.

I'm sorry about the edit conflict. It is not something that happens regularly but, as there is no way to know when somebody else is in the process of editing, it does happen from time to time. I appreciate that this is the sort of thing that can throw a new user off balance. If it happens again, the trick is to work out what has been changed and then copy and paste your changes from the bottom box to the top one in order to merge the two sets of changes. --DanielRigal (talk) 21:40, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
