Yes, I uploaded this picture, from a hard copy that I own, 5/6 years ago. It was taken in 1932/3 (therefore 78 years old) by an unknown photographer specifically to give to the press, who at that time were covering Clydesdale's (as he was then known) and others' expedition to fly over Everest.

I can't find anywhere what the 15th century Douglas earls of Angus and Morton looked like. Presumably they both contain the three white stars in a blue background above a red heart in a white background and were quartered. But were the quarters significantly different to the Douglas of Douglas line? Anywhere online that depicts them? Ta. -Bill Reid | (talk) 11:01, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi the Angus Arms changed very rapidly, I think the first earl of Angus is: quartered 1st & 4th Argent, man's heart Gules, a Chief Azure, over all three Stars of the first (for Douglas), 2nd & 3rd Argent, a Lion Rampant Gules (for the ancient Earls of Angus), over all a shield of pretence or with a Lion Rampant Gules surmounted by a Cost Sable (for Lordship of Abernethy). The Abernethy Lion Rampant is that of the Earls of Fife, [3] with the differencing of the Cost Sable to denote a cadet line. Later Earls added and subtracted various quarterings over the the years the most important of which is the Or, Fess Chequy Azure and Argent surmounted by a Bend Sable charged with three buckles of the first (for Stewart of Bonkyll). Other quarterings were Argent, five Piles Vert to signify Lordship of the Forest(Ettrick, Jed etc.), and Argent, three Piles Gules, for Wishart (I haven't been able to work out that connection yet tho'!).

Morton as a descendant of Andrew Douglas of Herdmanston (ie Douglases of Dalkeith) did not use the heart as they had become a cadet line at a point earlier than Sir James Douglas, and their arms were: Argent, a Chief Gules, overall two Stars of the first. Regent Morton started using the Heart and three Stars as he was a grandson of the 6th Earl of Angus and only Earl of Morton jure uxoris.

There are a few plates in William Faser's Douglas book here [4] but I don't think anyone has put anything in commons yet. Hope this helps? Brendandh (talk) 12:02, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A bit more here. Bell the cat Angus, had three Chevrons Gules on a Field Ermine to represent Liddesdale (apparently the old de Soules arms), when Liddesdale was removed from his authority and given to Patrick Hepburn, 1st Earl of Bothwell, Angus replaced them with the five Piles Vert for the Forest. Good book here,[5], though hard to read on my browser trying to order hard copy! Brendandh (talk) 14:28, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou very much for that and the The Douglas Book which I have now downloaded. Very interesting piece on Bricius of Douglas, Bishop of Moray and his uncle, Freskin of Kerdall in that book too. The other book shows the Angus armorial of Angus and Morton earls which is exactly what I was looking for. I noticed that the Douglas arms being used in the infobox at Battle of Arkinholm shows the heart with a crown above it. Would this have been post-forfeiture? Anyroad, thank you. --Bill Reid | (talk) 18:25, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, changing that. The crown was added by the first Marquis of Douglas in the early 17th c. Brendandh (talk) 20:30, 19 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Brendandh. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Salvio ^{Let's talk about it!} 10:43, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Brendan, I noticed this. Could you please examine the guidelines I pointed to in my edit summary and then undo your edit? Thanks a lot. --John (talk) 17:33, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:William Douglas, Duke of Hamilton.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:House of Stuart, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Favonian (talk) 19:25, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article was returned to House of Stuart by talk page consensus. If you persist in your attempts, it will constitute disruptive editing and you risk being blocked from editing. Favonian (talk) 19:29, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well a little lesson in Scots history here: The ruling house of Scotland for nearly 500 years, and then that of England and GB for a little less, was spelt 'Stewart'. 'Stuart' is a Gallicisation brought about by the Auld Alliance with France and their inabilty to pronounce the letter 'w'. Disruption was a major part of the reigns of Robert II until Queen Anne, far more than some wee wikiedits. That drive for consensus was not publicised on any of the relevant WP talk pages and therefore is valueless. Will be making a move request to move for not only this but also for all the other Scottish monarchs that have had the Anglo treatment. Arbitration required methinks... Brendandh (talk) 19:39, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know I made a similarly naive move of James I, I guess you wouldn't be surprised at the vicious reponse that resulted. Apparently if you label someone as a "Scottish nationalist" whilst expounding English nationalism thats not hypocrisy. Labelling someone a "Scottish nationalist" means their views are irrelevant. Ah well NPOV is also a core policy you know. Wee Curry Monster talk 22:49, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This wasn't on at all, and your closure comment wasn't any better.

Whoops! Thank you for the correction. And for the page moves. Shipsview (talk) 11:41, 11 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Referring to your reversion on Clan Douglas Wikipedia says (so it must be true): 'Linguistically, Douglas is derived from the Gaelic elements: dubh, meaning "dark, black"; and glas, meaning "stream" (also a derivative of glas, meaning "grey")' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douglas_(given_name)) and 'Etymology - From a place name, Gaelic dubh (“black”) + glas (“stream”)'. (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Douglas) I tend to think 'Lady Douglas' is right. Shipsview (talk) 10:18, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am afraid Wiktionary is wrong. 'Dubh' is Gaidhlig for Black, 'Glas' is a Gaidhlig word describing a colour that we do not have a word for in English, the nearest cognate being Cyan. The various rivers bearing this name would be 'Abhainn Dhubh Glas'. the last two words being descriptive adjectives of the noun 'Abhainn'- river or flowing water. (cf. all the river Avons in the British Isles, plenty River Rivers!) Brendandh (talk) 10:32, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Brendan, I spotted your amendment on the Marquess of Douglas, and wondered if you have a view on whether he should be Marquis of Douglas? There is some inconsistency within the article. Shipsview (talk) 09:32, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's just that in Scots usage it's 'Marquis' rather than 'Marquess', consistent with the French form, and historically the English form. Similarly for viscounties, in Scotland it is usually 'Viscount 'of' xxxx', rather than the English form 'Viscount xxxx'. Brendandh (talk) 09:46, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your last edit, isn't it against WP:PTM? Is the Bishop of Mortlach ever called "Mortlach"? If not, then it may be an inappropriate entry. You seem to have some understanding of the subject, so I ask you (I have zero understanding in the material itself). Were you perhaps referring to the bishopric rather than the bishop? I would agree the bishopric is not a PTM, but then a proper link would be to Diocese of Aberdeen. Would "Diocese of Mortlach" be appropriate? --Muhandes (talk) 15:40, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• What is now Dufftown and the lands around it were known as Mortlach until the 18/19th c. It was the centre of what would later become the Bishopric of Aberdeen following the move from there to the coast in the 12th c. At that date diocesan boundaries were certainly more fluid than they are today. Cf the removal of the cathedra of the Bishop of Moray from Spynie to Elgin at a slightly later date.

Brendandh, could you help expand the content on the Palmes family article please? Thanks (Yahoo12445678 (talk) 21:25, 7 October 2012 (UTC))[reply]

The reason I reverted your addition in Caledonia is because the source does nothing to back up the statement made. No one is challenging the name of the mountain. However, the article makes no connection between "Schiehallion" and "Sìdh Chailleann", it does not connect "Schiehallion" and "fairy hill of the Caledonians", and more importantly it never even mentions Caledonia or the Caledonians! It is totally unrelated to the subject at hand, and has no place in this article. You were bold in your addition, I've reverted and now explained the reason for the removal, please discuss on the talk page before re-adding (see WP:BRD), if you truly feel this source somehow supports statements in the article. — Huntster (t @ c) 22:04, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Balfour-Paul is not a primary source and he gives no evidence to support ascribing a knighthood to Moray. Contemporary documents do not state that Moray the younger was a knight. Neither he nor Wallace as described as a knight in the Lubeck-letter. The transcript of the Hexham safe-conducts also describe neither man as a knight (Wallace only is described as such in 1298, presumably after knighthood and the guardianship was conferred on him on an unknown date in the winter of 1297-98). Moray also had status so he didn't need knighthood to gather support. So I think that Balfour-Paul is wrong and I'm reverting it. Jaygtee (talk) 22:51, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Sorry, Balfour Paul is published, and he was Lord Lyon King of Arms, so I'll be reverting too. Brendandh (talk) 01:20, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Balfour-Paul may be published, scholarship has moved on. Professor Barrow in his book "Robert Bruce" (fourth edition, 2005) describes Moray as an esquire (page 98). This book represents one of the most important sources published on Scottish history and Barrow is widely respected. In addition to this, the Lubeck letter still exists and can be clearly seen NOT to refer to Moray as a knight. It was written by people who knew him. So I'm reverting again.Jaygtee (talk) 10:29, 16 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have recently started the article Opera in Scotland to try and rectify a huge oversight on Wikipedia. In this article, I deal with the surprisingly numerous operas by foreigners on Scottish themes, and also the pretty dismal Scottish output of opera.

I'm not a huge fan of the genre, but I appreciate that this is culturally important, and should be addressed on here. I think you're probably one of the more clued up Scottish editors, so I'm dropping you (and one or two others) a line to see if you could offer some advice, and improve the article. Anyway, I appreciate any help you might give.--MacRùsgail (talk) 19:17, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there is. "Flag icons may be relevant in some subject areas, where the subject actually represents that country, government, or nationality – such as military units, government officials, or national sports teams." A twin town represents itself primarily, not the country which it is in. "Icons should not be added only because they look good", and "Avoid adding icons that provide neither additional information (what the icon looks like itself is not additional information unless the icon is the subject of the article) to the article subject nor navigational or layout cues that aid the reader." These icons are not informative (as you say they are) because the name of the relevant country appears next to them, they (exactly as the MOS phrases it) provide no additional information. Pinkbeast (talk) 14:46, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to United Kingdom, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. Thank you. Please abide by the principles of WP:BRD and WP:CONSENSUS. If you wish to have Britain removed then you need to seek a consensus rather than just pushing your own POV on the matter trying to use the objections given on a related issue as vindication. Difference here is that Britain's inclusion has consensus whereas England at present does not. Another difference is that the England issue was raised by the proposer for discussing, yours hasn't. Hint, hint, raise your proposal at the discussion page and seek a consensus. Mabuska ^(talk) 23:14, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Welcome to Wikipedia" is the wrong template -- he's been here for 7 years. Of course he didn't only "mean to make some test edits". He's pushing his POV.

Re: Please reconsider recent changes by yourself and Zacwill16‎ You removed the identity of the Earl of Douglas, when this is important for the historical context. As the 6th Earl's exact date of birth is not known, it is not possible to state that he was 16 years old. There is no evidence where the bull's head was placed, if it was indeed 'placed' at all.

There are two possible names for this battle: it can either be called the battle of Flodden or . Flodden Field ("Field" in this context is a mediaeval term for a battle) so it is tautological, and incorrect, to call it "the Battle of Flodden Field", even if many people do so.

Hi Brendandh, I noticed your repeated changes on the spelling of Foulque Nerra, count of Anjou. I respectfully request that you leave the spelling Foulque, and not the British version Fulk, for a couple of reasons. One, I believe Foulque is closer to the Latin Fulco, which is the way the name is recorded in historical documents. Two, I'm writing a book on him, and I intend to use that spelling, and would prefer not have a different version on Wikipedia. I appreciate your attention to detail, but if you start down the road of switching all French names to their British counterparts, you'll have to change all the Louis to Lewis, Pierre to Peter, etc. Spelling is not an exact science, and I hope you will allow some room for negotiation between cultures. Thank you.

See WP:EW. Please be aware that this issue (country v state) has been discussed multiple times. If you want to raise it yet again, please do so on the article talk page, and don't edit war against consensus. Ghmyrtle (talk) 14:50, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• It's not a bloody effing country, it is three and a quarter countries bound by various treaties of Union, and IMHO it's a state, as well as being a 'State'. Brendandh (talk) 15:52, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's a state, or a country, comprising three and a quarter nations, or countries. So, it's perfectly correct to call it "a country comprising countries", and that is the formulation used in reliable sources. So, I'm afraid your personal opinion (or mine) doesn't matter here.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi. I've noticed the good work you do on here. I was wondering if you'd be interested in contributing to this ambitious British Isles challenge to bringing about 10,000 improvements to the UK and Ireland. The drive is fuelled by regional contests every few months, but it is generally an ongoing content improvement development. If you'd be interested in chipping in with the articles you improve please add your name to the participants and start adding your entries to the big list. Diversity of input will make it much more interesting to peruse! Thanks.♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:29, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible!

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to!

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

Hi. This month The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There is over £3000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. Wikimedia UK is putting up £250 specifically for editors who produce the most quality new women bios for British women, with special consideration given to missing notable biographies from the Oxford Dictionary of Biography and Welsh Dictionary of Biography. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate independently this is also fine, but please add any articles created to the bottom of the main contest page even if not competing. Your participation in the contest and contributing articles on British women from your area or wherever would we much appreciated. Thanks.

To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
• updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.

Hope you are still interested in the ‘Scottish Castles’ Project. I wonder if you might be able to help me? I’ve written a draft article, 'Draft:Scottish Castles Restoration Projects'. I think this is a valid and useful topic to add to the Scottish Castles pages – it reflects the fact that now over 100 Scottish castles have been restored from a ‘roofless ruin’ state over the last fifty years, which is quite an achievement. I was hoping a reviewer, ‘Theroadislong’ would accept it, but for some reason he won’t (see Talk pages, both Draft and here). Nor will he tell me exactly what he doesn't like! Are you able to help, either if you can review things yourself or know somebody who can? And of course I would very much appreciate your opinion as to whether you feel this is a valid topic for an Article and/or if you could suggest improvements. Many thanks. ArchaicW
