[edit] editing a relative's wikipedia entry

Hello,

I recently wrote an update to my great grandfather's entry on wikipedia. I myself, Perry Moore, have a rather well substantiated site on wikipedia. I wrote all the new, pertinent information about John W. Eggleston's life and career as Virginia's Supreme Court Justice. I also pointed wikipedia's fine staff in the direction of where to find the articles to back up all the the information.

I hope that will be enough.

His generosity is why I was able to receive an education, and largely why I have been able to accomplish the many things I have done to date, i.e. producing "The Chronicles of Narnia," and writing my series of award-winning young adult books, "HERO."

I do very much hope they include the changes. The information they have on Eggleston's wikipedia site is scant, and I was able to add so much more.

If anyone out there has any advice as to make sure the changes go through, please let me know.

Thank you,

[edit] Habbo Page.

On the wikipedia about habbo it reads:

Discussion forums Within groups, there is a discussion forum, where users can post various threads and topics. To be able to post in these forums, users will need to verify their e-mail address first. Users can post virtually anything they wish. Since many people enjoy spamming the forums, Habbo has included a "security code" system, where users must enter a randomly generated string of characters (eg. jsiqnsp) before their message can be saved, to prevent spam.

However, this is wrong because it uses the example jsiqnsp when habbo security codes always have a string of 6 letters. The example shows seven.

It should read:
