Hi,

no problem, and of course he is always referred to as John of england, since he is the only one so far. But are you sure that he was never referred to as John I, even during his reign ? In France, Louis Philippe I was referred officially as such, even though he was the only one (there was a pretender named Louis-Philippe II but few people actually know that and he never reigned anyway). regards, Jean-Jacques Georges (talk) 20:58, 7 March 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-03-07T20:58:00.000Z","author":"Jean-Jacques Georges","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Jean-Jacques_Georges-2010-03-07T20:58:00.000Z-John_I","replies":["c-LindsayH-2010-03-08T07:53:00.000Z-Jean-Jacques_Georges-2010-03-07T20:58:00.000Z"]}}-->

Well, no, i'm not certain he was never called John I, because i haven't read everything ~ obviously. But i do know that it is standard practice, in English, not to use the ordinal unless there's more than one. I had run across Louis Philippe I previously, actually ~ i almost thought of qualifying my original comment on your talk page to make it clear i was just referring to English/British monarchs.

Ok, no problem at all. It may creates some confusion about the naming conventions, though, since Farouk of Egypt, for example, has the number in the infobox even though there never was a Farouk II (even as a pretender, as far as I know). Baudouin of Belgium is also called officially Baudoin I even though there hasn't been another one so far.

Hi!

I see you removed the information about Welsh people of Pakistani descent from the article Welsh People. Is it your contention that people of Pakistani and other ethnic-minority backgrounds who live in Wales, and who self-identify as Welsh, are not Welsh people?

Yup, i did. You put it there, as the first part of WP:BRD, i reverted it; you can feel free to discuss it, if you like. I didn't start a discussion, to be honest, because i thought i was removing a subtle form of vandalism, as the cite you gave didn't support what you put, and the statement wasn't in the article, only the lead ~ which is supposed to "summarise" the article. Evidently you intended it seriously; the onus is now on you to start a discussion, and justify your position.

Ok, I'll overlook your failure to AGF. The cite did support what I inserted. Still, I added an additional source for Mohammad Asghar's self-idenfication as Welsh. I mean, he is Welsh, obviously - isn't he?

To the contrary, you overlook nothing; if there is one thing that can be gleaned from looking at my interaction with users, it is an abundance of good faith. Had i not assumed it, i would have reverted you with a vandalism-specific edit summary, and put a template on your talk page. As it is, i explained clearly in the summary why i took out the addition. And, to be correct, the cite in no way supported what was added; at no point in the BBC article does Asghar self-identify, nor is he identified, as Welsh. The second cite you found, now that's more acceptable.

Well, he is identifed as living in Wales, the first ethnic-minority member of the Welsh Assembly, elected in the interest of Plaid Cymru the "Party of Wales". But I'm happy you find the second source, in which he clearly self-identifies as Welsh, to be more acceptable. Perhaps now you will be able to answer the question you have hitherto avoided: Is it your contention that people of Pakistani and other ethnic-minority backgrounds who live in Wales, and who self-identify as Welsh, are not Welsh people?

Dear LindsayH Just thought id leave a quick reply regarding the message you sent me. First of all id like to apologise for my recent edit of tomie epps page,it was indeed inappropriate ,you were quite correct to change it back. Although i would like to bring to your attention that the page regarding Tomie epps is entirely fictional. Not one word of it is correct. I have an extensive knowledge of Mixed Martial Arts and i can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that this page does not contain one word of truth. I thought wikipedia, being an encyclopedia that it should be all truth. I see now that i should have alerted someone at the website about this fictional page. If you were to research any of the claims on this page you will quickly find out that they hold no water.

Hi Lindsay, thanks very much for your super fast response!

It's odd, because the header that you've put on the page (new unreviewed article) was there for as long as I can remember after I published it in January (it just seemed to appear like magic!). So I've no idea how it reverted to the "this is not a Wikipedia article" header .... must just be me.

:-(

Do you recommend that I hit the "seek feedback" link or does someone eventually pass by and review it?

Thanks again.

If you look at the history (d'you know how to do that? Click here), looking at all the old versions of the article (for example, this one or this or this, the first you made, you'll see they all have the template i replaced. WP is funny, in that things can be quite different from what you think; when i replaced the template, a whole lot of stuff got deleted too, though i didn't do it; just one of those things!

Anyway, to answer your question, you will get feedback anyway, if you do nothing; but clicking on the "Seek Feedback" link and posting a link to the article isn't a bad thing to do.

I don't know if you've come across the way to sign your posts on talk pages yet but, while typing John is fine, it is also good procedure to hit the tilde key four times, like this ~~~~ as the magic of wiki then makes it into a timestamped signature that, if you so choose, you can personalise; the advantage of the signature is that it provides a link to your own user page and talk page, should anyone want them.

Hi. I see you like working on these syntax errors, too. I was wondering, when you fix them, would you mind marking them as done in the Check Wikipedia database? That way, when another editor starts working on them, they won't find articles that someone else has already taken care of. In case you don't know where to do that, you can find a list of all the errors in the database here: just click on the one you're working on, then click on "Done" for each article you fix. I've marked off quite a few that you did for error 7 (Headline all start with 3 "="), because I've been working on that error, too. Thanks!

I see you're in Wales -- what part are you in? I visited Wales quite a few years ago, and I thought it was beautiful! It reminded me a lot of the area where I grew up in Pennsylvania, where a lot of Welsh immigrants settled. There were place names there like Bangor and Pen Argyll. --Auntof6 (talk) 20:42, 1 July 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-07-01T20:42:00.000Z","author":"Auntof6","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Auntof6-2010-07-01T20:42:00.000Z-Cleaning_up_Check_Wikipedia_errors","replies":["c-LindsayH-2010-07-02T02:24:00.000Z-Auntof6-2010-07-01T20:42:00.000Z"]}}-->

Well, i feel...maybe a bit foolish. I've been editing with Wikicleaner, and while clearly it gets its list from a database, i assumed that it was one that updated with regular, automatic runs. D'you mean i should be manually changing this database every time i correct an error? Just where can i find this thing (you neglected to link your link to it!)? If i've been doing it wrong, thanks for the tip, and i'm sorry.

Oops, sorry for forgetting to link to the page! It's here. The list is mostly in alphabetical order by error description, except for the few at the top of the list. You would think it would get updated, but I frequently find things listed in it that were taken care of days, weeks, or even months before. I do see new ones appear several times a day, but it doesn't seem to get cleaned out very often. I wouldn't say you've been doing anything wrong (some editors refuse to take care of that, and that's OK, I guess), just that it would be helpful if you could mark off the ones you fix.

I've been to Corning and seen the Finger Lakes -- my family travelled there when I lived back east, in Stroudsburg, PA. The countryside is a different kind of pretty back east than it is out here in California.

Hmmm, i've taken several looks at that link and, perhaps i'm stupid but, i've not found any way to edit it, click on done, or modify any of the entries. I edited one, went back, and tried to change it to done, but it didn't happen. So, either i'll have to stop using Wikicleaner & the database, or i'll have to continue not updating it, trusting that it will be updated regularly, as it apparently should be. Sorry.

By all means, continuing to edit without updating the database is preferable, but let me try to explain it again. On the page the link goes to, click on the name of the error that you've worked on, then that will bring up a list of the individual articles with the error. That's where the "Done" link is. If you're getting a message saying that the page can't be displayed, it's probably because the server is busy -- you should be able to try again and get it. --Auntof6 (talk) 03:31, 3 July 2010 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-07-03T03:31:00.000Z","author":"Auntof6","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Auntof6-2010-07-03T03:31:00.000Z-LindsayH-2010-07-03T03:17:00.000Z","replies":["c-LindsayH-2010-07-04T05:13:00.000Z-Auntof6-2010-07-03T03:31:00.000Z"]}}-->

Yeah, i'd done that, still not found a way to change the "done" setting. I have just, however, made a few, test edits with Wikicleaner, and then gone to the database, and all of them have been changed automatically. I tried to do it manually, from within Wikicleaner, and the message was along the lines of, "You just make the edit, i'll mark it as fixed". I reckon any you've had to re-mark have just been software glitches. What d'you think?

Hmm, I just click on the word "Done" and the article disappears from the list. I wonder why it's not working for you.

Hi Lindsay, I hope you do not feel insulted or anything about my response to your response concerning the question of Theobald. I do not think you know him. He makes these remarks more often you see. Although I do not think he will use a knife on me he does mean to deter me with it. That is why I am raising the issue. I hope you can relate to the fact that I merely wish to contribute to the wikipedia and do not wish to think about certain users implied threats. Therefore I would like you to stay out of the matter and certainly not speak on Theobalds behalf. Thank you.

On a different note: I noticed you were born in Vancouver btw. Nice city. I enjoyed Canada greatly when I traveled it. Vancouver has the vibe of a place with nice things going on, but that has grown too quickly in the last years to me. However, escaping to the island seems a great relief to anyone I think...or at least to me.

Regarding your changes to 1891 Nebraska Old Gold Knights football team‎ and 1890 Nebraska Old Gold Knights football team‎, I don't disagree that the HTML tags for lists should instead be in WP format (*), but simply removing them damages the formatting of the page. I do not feel that it is good form to remove HTML elements simply because they exist and put nothing in their place to perform the same function, to the detriment of the page's appearance. Rather, a full fix should be performed, or nothing changed. I am working on these Nebraska team pages, and this is a known problem on my future agenda. Just something for you to consider. Thanks.

Thanks. I stopped after (i think) two articles, because i wasn't fully confident with what i had done. I saw absolutely no difference in the formatting, but was unhappy with taking out the HTML (which is deprecated in WP) and not replacing it. I'm not as confident in wikiformatting as i'd like, though i can get it to do most things i want, thus no replacement for items i could see no purpose for. Unless, though, i can work out just what's going on, i'll likely not go back to (large) that list of articles needing the HTML removing.

Danish is not an official faroese language. i can prove it by repeating the line in faroese, that i am a faroese person, so please believe me that Faroe islands got only 1 official language: faroese and danish is just a language we were forced to use.

well its not official language, its a language we were forced to talk 70 years ago, but no longer forced to as the British helped us with that, thanks to Hitler. we learn it in school, that doesn't make it official, if it was official language, then how come i didn't learn speaking it until i was 12 years old? and if i'm gonna be blocked for editing it the lies and telling the truth, then i will be blocked for that, i want the truth to be on this page, as most people do and not lies. 1 more thing... most of what says on that Eik bank site, is bull shit to say it in a nice way. Faroese people can't speak danish fluently as its not the way we speak. i don't know a single Faroese person that can speak danish fluently. and this article means a lot for me as its where i come from, that is why i'm trying so hard to get the danish language removed as official language, because it isn't.

It's obvious that's where you're from. What's not obvious, however, is why your Prime Minister's office clearly indicates that Danish is an official language if it isn't.

It looks like the text originates in Northumberland Yesterday and To-day by Jean F. Terry, which according to Project Gutenberg is in the public domain in the US (based, I guess, on a 1913 publication being protected for 95 years from the date of publication. I have very slight doubts, since I thought the point of the Berne Convention was to extend UK copyright protection to UK publications in the US, and vica versa, which would be life plus 70 years or so. But perhaps I have it wrong.) The upshot: I guess we should reference and attribute the source. I probably feel about guilty enough to go and do that right now. I have, err, improved my use of attribution notes and citations somewhat since 2005, I assure you ;).

Thanks, but we've ended up with the song still being mentioned twice. The other point that the editor did not make (deliberately I presume) is that the spelling in the song by The Libertines is indeed Boadicea, so the text could read 'Under the name Boadicea she is mentioned in The Libertines' song The Good Old Days.' Looking at it, under and at the end of the section headed fiction there is a paragraph about music where the song was mentioned before the editor's recent addition, and that whole paragraph needs to be moved to 'Other cultural references' or perhaps given a new section heading. Do you want to deal with this?
