[edit] Deletion of Artical discussion

I oppose the deletion of the artical. The artical is valid because it lists those peers whose titles have a Welsh place-named origion (Anglesea, Dwyfor, Abergavenny for instance) or its territorial qualification is within Wales, such as Baron Champion, of Pontypridd in the County of Glamorgan. It currently states in the artical that Welsh Peers do not form a seperate peerage from the English, British, and UK peerages in and of itself, simply identifies those peers whose titles are of or in Wales. The holder may or may not be of Welsh ethnicity, but the title-holders ethnicity is not the point of the artical at all. There is a valid interest as to what peerage titles are in Wales, as opposed to elsewhere. Drachenfyre 03:58, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Per Proposed deletion policy:

• If you disagree: Any editor who disagrees with a proposed deletion can simply remove the tag. Even after the page is deleted, any editor can have the page restored by any administrator simply by asking. In both cases the editor is encouraged to fix the perceived problem with the page.
• Renominations: Once the proposed deletion of a page has been objected to by anyone, it may not be proposed for deletion again. If an editor still feels the page ought to be deleted, a deletion discussion should be used, as indicated below. Drachenfyre 05:49, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Bizarre that this page was kept. There is no Welsh Peerage. It is just that simple. David Lauder 11:55, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but the article itself makes that clear. It's no more or less accurate than an article on "Yorkshire peers", tho it probably should be more explicit that a peer is not obliged to have any connection with the place they choose as the territory of their peerage. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:50, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Earl Top-heavy

Seems to me that Wales is top-heavy with Earl titles. I am sure there are more viscounts and barons the we have listed. But I also am sure this is the most comprehensive list so far compiled as well. Ill keep my eye out for more titles, in the mean time good work Glamorgan for adding to it!Drachenfyre 04:01, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
