First the good news

Firstly, welcome, glad to see another Scot. There's quite a virtual community, as you'll see at the Wikipedia:Scottish Wikipedians' notice board. There's also a Category:Wikipedians in Scotland which you can get yourself onto by clicking on the relevant category link at the bottom of the notice board article, then follow instructions. I hadn't picked up on that, must do so now.

Secondly, an unfortunate coincidence: there was already an article at St Magnus Cathedral, Kirkwall, but St Magnus Cathedral must have been left as a red link which lured you into doing a new article. Sorry about that. The older article's a bit more complete, though there's things in the newer article well worth merging into it. Will sort that in the near future, hope that's OK with you.

Thirdly, excellent stuff on Undiscovered Scotland. I've used it as a source on many articles, and had already linked to it on the St Magnus Cathedral, Kirkwall page, though that owed more to Orkneyjar. Hope you can continue to help with Wikipedia and there's a cross-fertilisation of ideas. All the best, ...dave souza 21:23, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, to change the Muness castle page to Muness Castle, click on the "move" tab you should have along the top of your pages, and follow instructions. If you want a hand, let me know. Also, you've great pics on Undiscovered Scotland which it would be good to see here, but take care with the licensing: click on the "Upload file" link in the "Toolbox" to the left and follow links to find about licensing. ...dave souza 21:47, 9 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for this Dave: as far as the St Magnus Cathedral page is concerned, that's down to inadequate checking on my part - so it goes. And thanks for the tip on moving - Muness Castle is now sorted. It would be good to be able to use more Undiscovered Scotland stuff to fill gaps: and I've certainly given thought to uploading images, but as you suggest, wanted to think through the licsnsing options and implications more fully first.
