[edit] Scottish controversy

Hi Paul, have a welcome! If you want something simpler, feel free to change it to one from here or delete it, but hope you find it useful. The what Wikipedia is not policy rather excludes your comments about QE2 from the Scotland page, and they would also need to meet WP:A and WP:NPOV to be included. It's an issue that's been discussed before, and as you suggest is covered under Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom#Scottish controversy. The outcome is that in some bizarre royal arithmetic she gets to call herself what she wants, and as you may have noticed there are post office pillarboxes around the place with E VII R on them, but none with ER or E II R. ........ dave souza, talk 14:11, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
