[edit] Brighton College

Please do not revert this again. I don't know where you come from, but in the UK, schools that are not publicly funded, ie private schools, are called "public schools". Read this: Public school (England) - "in the British Isles (apart from Scotland) it refers to certain elite, private secondary schools." Yes, that says PRIVATE. Gsd2000 23:44, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Braveheart Edits

You would be right to remove it, if its popularity in Scotland wasn't mentioned within the article. It was only the Wallace stature (the later one, with Wallace portrayed as Gibson) that aroused the ire of the Scots; the film was phenomenally popular there, sort of like all three Star Wars there. When I was summering there, people would see it again and again, sometimes in the same day, in marathon-mode. It was kind of crazy. However, you may be right in that pointing out that better citations are needed there. Thanks. Arcayne (cast a spell) 20:26, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Btw, I think you are making a mistake witht eh edit to Dracula, in chanign Stoker's origination to UK instead of Ireland. When people are born or events happen in a place that is renamed afterwards, they usually identified by the former name of the place, ie: 'it was a car built inthe days of the former Soviet Union', or 'Milo was born in the former Yugoslavia.' As well, most people identify with the country, while the poliical changes since then can be briefly noted within the body of the article. Just my two bits, but I think that will go back and forth for a while unless addressed. Arcayne (cast a spell) 20:34, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
