[edit] Template:British subjects
Thanks for updating the layout of Template:British subjects. I created this in April and assumed that someone with more experience would fix the ugly appearence. Restoring the British flag is also a good idea. I started this as a list of different classes of "Britishness", but it turned into commonwealth template. -- Petri Krohn 21:04, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Diorama photo
Great photo of the Battle of Blenheim diorama, it fits well with the article. Incidentally, I have rewritten most of the article. In my opinion it is now much better and clearer so I hope the Epic Barnstar is still justified. Thanks Raymond Palmer 22:07, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] England and Great Britain
It is you who have messed up the talk pages, all I did is re-name the article. I shall continue to revert by copy and paste because I don't know any other way. I have done a lot of work on this article today and it is clear that you haven't read it. TharkunColl 02:20, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
I did not merge two articles. The Kingdom of England article has often contained the monarchs to the present day, I simply retitled it. I touched no other article. But now, because of you, its talk page and history is lost. TharkunColl 02:28, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
The British state is the successor to the English state. It makes no historical sense to draw an arbitrary line at 1707, because very little changed in that year. Some of the very earliest kings of England were also kings of Britain - please have a look at the article. PS I was the one who wrote the Great Britain article! TharkunColl 02:37, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
All reference books list English and British monarchs in one list. Scotland was annexed by the English state - it was not a merger of equals. Anyway, I'm going to bed. I shall continue to revert tomorrow. TharkunColl 02:43, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Agree with redirecting the said article to List of monarchs in the British Isles. The seperate lists for England and Scotland should only exist under different names eg King of England; and King of Scotland. Astrotrain 18:56, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Template:Florida
Hey, JW1805, I know you had good intentions when you added back the state seal of Florida after Lovelac7's efforts for standardization, but if you look at Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates, you'll notice that only Florida's and Vermont's templates still have the state seal. We've currently got a discussion on about what to incorporate into state templates as part of the standardization Lovelac7 and I are trying. That's an important topic to discuss over there: whether state seals should be incorporated into templates. Feel free to join in. Thanks! ;) — Webdinger BLAH | SZ 23:24, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Back to Lilliput
Thanks to you and others like you I have finished with this whole project. I will be nomintaing Scotland in the Late Middle ages for deletion; I will certainly be doing no further work on it. I do not mind constructive editing and thoughtful debate; I loath petty-mindedness. Sadly, petty-mindedness is the dominant mood in Wikipedia. Rcpaterson 00:52, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- Well, best wishes to you. Every time you make an edit, you see the disclaimer "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it." You shouldn't take it personally and lash out at everybody when someone offers suggestions about your writing. --JW1805 (Talk) 01:04, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Abner Doubleday
Was the president of the American section of Theosophy. Wjhonson 18:52, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Copyright
Just a little thing, your image at Image:Map_of_Florida_Parishes.png should have the copyright details change. I would have updated it for you, but I'm not sure if editing someone elses copyright would be seen in a negative light. Pauric 17:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Photo of Gonzales Cannon Mural
JW1805 - I am interested in contacting you directly regarding your photo of the Gonzales Cannon Mural. Did you take the photo yourself? Do you have a higher resolution version than the version posted on WIkipedia? If so, please let me know how I might contact you to discuss using it on a book project. I am new to Wiki and created a user account just for this purpose. ThanksPr1510 19:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)Pr1510
[edit] Chickamauga Monument
Awesome Photo of the Chickamauga Monument! Zanter 15:00, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pascua Florida
Sorry, I apparently was reading your edit in reverse. -- Donald Albury 02:34, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Conch Republic
Centauri and his sock puppets keep reverting your change to Conch Republic. I am going to report him. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by FairHair (talk • contribs) 22:35, October 10, 2006.
[edit] Template:Changes to "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church"
Hello Friend, are you familiar with this (WP:DR) "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DR"? Have a read or two of it, you may be educated... that you should improve on an article and not simply revert it. Or how about speaking to the person that changed it first on the discussion page? Thank you so very much. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Psalmuel (talk • contribs) (19:33, October 29, 2006.
[edit] Confederate Presidents
What was ur reasoning for editing my Head of State list for the CSA? What more proof do u need? government structure documents? How else can you explain who lead the CSA before Davis was sworn in since he diddn't take office from the country's start? Just like Washington couldnt be 1st president since the Articles were removed in 1787 not '89...

[edit] Democrat Party
Back in June, you participated in a wiki discussion about deleting an article called “Democrat Party (United States).” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Democrat_Party_%28United_States%29). It was agree to delete this article and redirect it to Democratic Party (United States) -- the real name of the Democratic Party. However, someone has revived the Democrat Party article. Would you care to weigh in on this at that article’s Talk page? I think a redirect is in order in accordance with the decision we reached last June.
