thanks for Women in Red Victuallers (talk) 15:02, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Victuallers, I"m sorry, but I've removed the Twitter link. Wikipedia isn't a venue for requesting RTs. Best wishes. Waggie (talk) 15:08, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I realise you may be working quickly but I don't think you understand whats going on here. Easy mistake to make. You may have thought the prime purpose was to request a RT - but no. Luckily this was only a courtesy note - but its sad that it was deleted. A nice request for more info might have prevented your nonconstructive contribution. Best wishes Victuallers (talk) 15:29, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Victuallers, but this really looks like a request to RT, and can't be interpreted any other way that I can see. If there's something I'm missing, feel free to enlighten me. Waggie (talk) 15:39, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thats what it looks like. What it doesnt show is that this article was written very recently. Which watchers off this page will know. It doesn't show that the article has been improved - which again readers of this note who watch this page would realise. Primarily what the note says is 1. THANKS! 2. You'll be pleased to know that your article has been noticed by the WiR project. 3. The article has been tweeted, have a look and see what it looks like. 4 (The bit you saw) was a request to spread the good news. If "4" had been the primary purpose then your action would have been useful. As it is readers off this page can now read 1, 2 and 3 (which I have now made explicit) and I must warn them that they should not use any other project to mention it... ever! I have lost interest however in this and I will return to the prime purpose. Victuallers (talk) 15:51, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
