[edit] Charles Fort
Martin, your Al-Hikma contribution has been vandalised. I've cleaned it up and added some changes--but I'm new to Wiki. P.S. As 24.149.161.58 22:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)one who spent time there (and spend my Summers on the Beara penninsula)I'm curious as to your own connection with Al-H.24.149.161.58 22:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC) Hi Martin, I moved Charles's Fort to Charles Fort (building) when adding some photographs; hope this is OK with you. I put a disambiguation link on the Charles Fort (author) page. "Charles Fort" is the correct name as a quick Google will demonstrate, for example:
http://www.heritageireland.ie/en/HistoricSites/South/CharlesFortCork/
To be honest James's Fort should probably go to James Fort also. -- Blorg 17:57, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Gallego articles
Please take a look at the changes I've made to Ruben Gallego, both for content and style. Please adjust your articles to use this same style, and feel free to correct any factual mistakes I've made. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:25, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Boreen
Boreen has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this is more a dictionary definition than an encyclopedia article. Please see the article for details. NickelShoe (Talk) 15:31, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Arnold Wilson
Is this the same guy as Sir Arnold T. Wilson, the author of many books on Persia? AucamanTalk 04:07, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Robert Ballagh
Thanks for your addition to the Robert Ballagh article, I was wondering did you have a reference for that? Notjim 17:14, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Targum dialect of Hebrew
I and another user have expressed concern for the accuracy of this article. I've had a look at the reference you have given (Communal Identities and Ethnic Groups: Jewish Communities), which mentions the Targum dialect of Hebrew in passing within a short essay. I believe that the source is mistaken. There are two varieties of Jewish Neo-Aramaic (not Hebrew) that are referred to as Targumic: the dialect of Sanandaj and the dialect of Zakho. Also, the word תרגום (targûm) means 'translation', and it refers to a translation of the Scriptures from Hebrew into another language, usually Aramaic. Considering all of this, I believe the source reference is wrong. I wanted to mention this to you just in case you have any additional information that might shed some light on the accuracy of the article. — Gareth Hughes 11:13, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
