"Compulsory Education Act"

You're quite right, I'll change it. Your edit got lost in there when I was trying to draft a compromise version. --Guinnog 23:34, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Category:Organizations based in Australia with royal patronage

Mais Oui, are you OK with the renaming of Category:Organizations based in Australia with royal patronage to Category:Organisations based in Australia with royal patronage ('s' instead of 'z')? If you agree, I think it's easier to speedy move it, as you created it. Thanks. --Scott Davis Talk 07:25, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Glasgow, Scotland

It is not patronizing to say Glasgow, Scotland. Look at the disambiguation page for the number of places (founded by escapees?) which are called Glasgow. It is rather conceited and parochial to say that Glasgow (Scotland) can stand by itself but, presumably, want or be happy that the other places sharing the smae name should be distinguished. Even in the context of an article about Andrew Marr, a semi-professional Scotsman, it is simple good manners to be precise and not leave the reader having to deduce. Wikipedia is not Scottish property...it is a big world. Pliny 13:45, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
