[edit] Llywelyn the Great Children

Hope that I am doing this right. Thank you for your welcome! I have done some editing here or there, mostly around history pages. What you did was perfect. It did not look as neat originally so I just wanted to clean it up. Thank you again! RosePlantagenet 19:09, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welsh Nationalism

This articule is about Welsh nationalism, not self-government (which is, I assume, about the provisions withing the two Government of Wales Bills). See my comments on the article's talk page of 22 February. Normalmouth 05:17, 15 July 2006 (UTC)


Hwyl. No, I do understand what he's done, and I accept that, if it clearly comes into the category of forking, then he shouldn't have done it. However, I think there is an argument for having two separate articles. If he doesn't take appropriate action, I'm quite prepared to do something about it, eg. change it back to a redirect and protect it. Deb 19:09, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello. I have no wish to get into an edit war. But I want to creat an article about Welsh Nationalism (which the current Welsh Self Governmnent article used to be until chaged to the present misleading title. If you prefer, I will create a fresh one - but references to Welsh Nationalism should point at it, not at this one. Normalmouth 15:39, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Flags of Wales

Can you take a look at the Category:Flags_of_Wales page and tell me how many images you see in the gallery. I can only see one, the Royal Standard, the other three don't appear.

[edit] FAC

Just wanted to let you know I commented on Llewelyn's FAC. I've made a couple of suggestions, and pointed out one particular instance where you're not in agreement with the Manual of Style. It looks like the article's well on its way to approval, though. Good luck! Peirigill 20:35, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations! Well deserved. Peirigill 20:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Y Gododdin

Great work with your recent edits to Y Gododdin. Keep it up! One question, though- what is the Jarmin book you are referring to?--Cúchullain t/c 17:24, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Terrific! Thanks. --Cúchullain t/c 17:31, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Aberdyfi

Hi Rhion.

Can I seek your opinion on the correct spelling of Aberdyfi?

The National Assembly document http://new.wales.gov.uk/topics/localgovernment/localauthorities/gwyneddcouncil/?lang=en)]] gives Aberdyfi as does the BBC site http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northwest/sites/aberdyfi/

However User:Owain cites the Gwynedd Council document http://www.gwynedd.gov.uk/gwy_doc.asp?cat=3371&doc=9209&Language=1 as a reason to revert all changes to Aberdovey (despite the article title!!!)

I'm quite surprised at this because he spends much of his time deleting any reference to Gwynedd, Conwy, etc -- Maelor  14:35, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

I've put up a request for guidance on this matter (and other similar issues) on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

[edit] Cantre'r Gwaelod

Hi Rhion,

I noticed that you created the redirect page from Cantre'r Gwaelod to Lowland Hundred. I have to admit though that I've never heard it called anything but Cantre'r Gwaelod, even in English. What do you think? Should it be moved or is Lowland Hundred really that common a name for the place? garik 11:27, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't think I've ever heard it called the "Lowland hundred" actually. It probably should be moved to "Cantre'r Gwaelod". Rhion 11:46, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
Done. garik 12:19, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slate industry of Wales

Rhion, just a quick note to thank you for the excellent work you've done on this article. It really is a credit to you. Best, Gwernol 19:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Seconded. A very enjoyable and readable article. Diolch yn fawr. — Tivedshambo (talk to me/look at me/ignore me) 21:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Rhion - I've created & uploaded this image - a copy of a "Bradwr" window poster. You might like to use it (no, it seems they didn't use a "to bach"!) image:Nid-oes-bradwr.jpg Hogyn Lleol 07:49, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Rhion - I see that "The Slate Industry of Wales" is now a featured article. Well deserved.

[edit] Canolfan Tryweryn

I noticed that you have been involved in creating the Afon Tryweryn article, and would like to inform you that I intend to merge the article with my newly created Canolfan Tryweryn article, unless you have any objections. DevAnubis 12:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiproject Indonesia Newsletter
WikiProject Indonesia has grown incredibly! Two months ago, when the project was created, there were only two members, but now, we have got over 20 members, and hopefully it will keep increasing. Because of this large number, now WikiProject Indonesia has it's own newsletter, which will be delivered every week on Monday morning, around 22:00 (UTC). If you have any idea and suggestions, please do not hesitate to contribute to the next newsletters. We also need to find a better banner for the newsletter, so just post it on project's talk page. With your help, we can reach the even the impossible goal!
"Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kita runtuh"
What's new?
Several ways to increase the interactions between editors have been proposed. For now, the best solution would be the IRC Channel just for WikiProject Indonesia. Please go to #wikipedia-id if you have had experiences with IRC Channels. Or read the instructions at Wikipedia:IRC.

Three new barnstar design have been proposed! If you find a great editor with excellent contributions to Indonesia-related articles, give him/her a barnstar, or maybe two or three! See the barnstars at Wikiproject Indonesia Barnstars.
Articles improvements
The previous two weeks were maybe the best and tiring week for some of us. On the good side, we have got a new Good Article, which is Toraja. Congratulations for all editors who have involved in the expansion. Yet we have failed to get two Good Article status, which are Tourism in Indonesia and Indonesia. However with the spirit of 1945 we will always accomplish many things!

Starting this week (October 17), the collaboration durations have been extended, so now we can collaborate to improve a particular article for two weeks straight. Please leave any recommendations or suggestions on the collaboration talk page.

[edit] Java collaboration

Hi Rhion/Archive3! Starting today, the Indonesia Collaboration is Java. Come along and help make this an article worthy of the world’s greatest island. There’s a suggested to-do list on the the talk page to which you can add, or just pick a task. All sorts of tasks are required, Images, Citations, Research, Copy Edit; you name it, it needs to be done – this important article needs your help!! Regards -- Imoeng 08:44, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Slate industry in Wales

Great article! I enjoyed reading it. --BillC 00:37, 3 November 2006 (UTC)


Good article. I have a helpful tip regarding the scanned image of the men splitting slate. If you scan the newsprint or bookprint, whatever it was, at a random odd angle (not 90 or 45), then rotate it straight in the image editing software, that usually does a good job at minimizing moire effect from the screening process used in printing your original.

Super job and very interesting read. How long did you spend on it before you put it on Wikipedia? Jeepday 13:21, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Why Switzerland?

On the subject of a world government, why Switzerland? Is it because they hold all the world's money? That would be slightly elitist, don't you think? Black-Velvet 03:33, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Indonesia Newsletter
Last week, two more members have joined the project, and really boost the progress of articles editing. Danny Yee and Lestari, welcome to the project, hopefully you will enjoy your stay. So, we officially have got 26 members!

More than 440 articles have been tagged with the WikiProject Indonesia template, well done to all editors who have contributed this far. Also, while copy-editing is a very useful thing to do, researching and expanding the article, or maybe one or two sections would be extremely useful, because it is the goal of the collaboration, expanding and getting a good article status.

Articles improvements
We have got another Good Article nomination! Congratulations to all editors, especially Indon, who have improved it significantly, maybe you can give six barnstars. So, with the nomination, we officially have had four good articles. Hopefully we can get plenty good articles in the future, or even featured articles.

The last collaboration was not a huge success, the Pulau Dewata is still a "start" article and has not improved much. However, seems like the collaboration spirit is back and Java has improved gradually, thanks to all editors.

[edit] Jonathan Davies

Hi - I hope you can help me! I am trying to add a Wiki Rugby project Infobox to the article on Jonathan Davies - without success! I added a blank version originally and filled in the data, but all it showed (in both preview and production) was his name, image and place of birth. So I then experimented with the one I found used at Andy Robinson, which has allowed the addition of more information but still won't show even basic information on his Rugby League career. Can you please help? Thanks - Rgds, - Trident13 11:59, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ap v/s Map

Hello! Some time ago you clarified for me the use of ap/ab, but I have further questions. I read that these ap/ab are of corse contractions of map/mab. But what I havent found is exactly when the contraction began. When did the m drop off of ap? I ask because I would like to know because someone suggested all the Welsh articals now need to be changed to read something like Llywellyn Map Gruffydd. I am weary of this and seek some more direct proof. Thanks! Drachenfyre 14:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
