[edit] Bletchley parish boundary

Well spotted. My mistake for not checking my source. Please keep checking! Have a look at category:Milton Keynes as there are loads of articles that need a fresh eye. --Concrete Cowboy 22:19, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

A belated thanks. I will look through, but my knowledge of the rest of Milton Keynes pales compared to that of Bletchley! --Mk3severo 01:57, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Myra Wilson

Hi; the only noteworthy things I know about Myra Wilson were the things I put in the first version of her stub. If that's not enough, I won't oppose any deletion procedure. — Whitepaw 11:26, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On 5 September 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Gerald Ciolek, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Population of Beltchley

How did you define Bletchley for population, since that (I think) is collected at Parish level. I don't think you can just add West Bletchley and Bletchley and Fenny Stratford. --Concrete Cowboy 23:13, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

MKiObservatory is a good citation. You might need a footnote to say you define Bletchley to be contained by the A421, the southern city boundary and the A5, excluding Fenny Stratford. (Or the combined parishes of West Bletchley and Bletchley and Fenny Stratford, excluding Fenny but that sounds pathetic). You realise of course that a lot of this was built after designation. --Concrete Cowboy 23:43, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, very arbitrary. That's why I asked, and why I think it is important that you state what it is that you are counting. If you were very picky, you could define it just as Old Bletchley (a suburb of Fenny Stratford - Queensway used to be Bletchley Road, Fenny!). The "Plan for Milton Keynes" (1971) gives the population of Bletchley then as 30,000 [from memory - needs checking if it matters.] --Concrete Cowboy 00:02, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Despite all of the above, I'm still worried so I've started a discussion at Talk:Bletchley, Milton Keynes. --Concrete Cowboy 19:34, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Abraham Olano

You have been using AWB to redirect links from Abraham Olano to Ábraham Olano. I don't know where that spelling comes from but it's not Spanish or Basque. I have redirected. Could you use AWB again to undo your changes? --Error 03:33, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] History of Milton Keynes

I've been slowly plodding along with History of Milton Keynes. I notice your interest in Bletchley and Local History, so wondered if you felt like contributing the Expansion of Bletchley section? The most accessible resource is at the Bletchley Clutch Club, it just needs to edited down viciously into a reasonable size section. --Concrete Cowboy 20:03, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marseille

[edit] Pronunciation of "Marseille"

I saw you edit the article Olympique de Marseille. So I guess you might be able to help me. I'm wondering what the pronunciation of the team is, Mar-say [maʀsɛj] or Mark-say [mɑxˈsɛjɐ], thanks --Manop - TH 22:15, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP Munich

[edit] Diacritics

Hi. I couldn't help but notice your minor and careful edits on several pages (which I had on my watchlist): it is rare to see an Anglo-Saxon so welcoming and understanding of diacritics. Coming from a "diacritical" language/alphabet/culture, I feel obliged to thank you.; your edits are a sight for sore eyes (considering the sheer number of users who claim that diacritics "should not be featured on an English-language encyclopaedia" etc.).

[edit] Campaign Against Homophobia

Hi, thanks for your edit. I appreciate, every change made by Wikipedians makes articles batter. Though, this article still needs a lot of work, probably mainly in the style department:) but hey, this is the disadvantage of not having English as a first language:> However, one thing you corrected, raised my eyebrow:) Polish title of the Festiwal Kultura dla Tolerancji w Krakowie is correct, and it cannot be "w Krakówie". I'll explain. Polish language is stuffed with irregularities; and nouns undergo declension, like in Latin or German:

nominative case (who? what?): PL: Kraków, EN: Kraków
genitive (to whom? to what?): PL: Krakowowi EN: to Kraków
dative (of who? of what?): PL: Krakowa EN: of Kraków
accusative (whom? what?): PL: Kraków EN: Kraków
instrumental (with whom? with what?): PL: z Krakowem EN: with Kraków
locative (in/about who? in/about what?) PL: w/o Krakowie EN: in/about Kraków
vocative (oh!) PL: o, Krakowie! EN: oh, Kraków!

In case of that sentence, locative case needs to be used. Gosh, look how lucky you are with English!:) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Boyau (talk • contribs) 23:06, 4 December 2006 (UTC). PS.Wooops! I forgotten to sign my post! Boyau 23:09, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
