Please stick to the Wikipedia house style for headings. All uppercase headings are not the house style; and emphasised headings are pointless, since it depends from the settings of each individual reader's web browser whether they display that way. Thank you. Uncle G 23:06, 2005 Jan 21 (UTC)
In the George Vancouver article you tell us of a disciplinary hearing Vancouver faced upon his return. I have a biography of Vancouver, mind you, one intended for younger readers. And it makes no mention of any disciplinary measures. It attributes the quite life he lead following his return to poor health.
For the problems Vancouver faced when he returned to England, please see "Let The Sea Make a Noise...", Walter A McDougall, Perennial, 1st ed., New York, 2004: p 109.
Hi, just read your comments re. the changes I had made to Miramichi River and the Miramichi River valley entry that was created. These can be undone fairly easily by just clicking the last appropriate version and resaving, and putting a redirect where appropriate. I had actually started out by creating some of the tributary river articles and things started to snowball as I tried to figure out how to fit things together. I actually hadn't even looked at the page history and my apologies if I had offended you in any way as I didn't realize you were the major content generator. My personal connection to northern NB is through Campbellton and the north shore so I don't profess to be a Miramichi expert by any means. Plasma east02:30, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Greetings Polycarp. 13 hrs ago I temporarily blocked the IP address 67.85.27.62. from editing because there were nonsense edits coming to articles after the user at that address had been warned. Then I received an email claiming to be you asking about the block. If it was really you please contact me again, I can unblock you and we'll discuss the edits. Cheers, Fire Star 13:52, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Polycarp: you reinserted a statement that I had removed ("In his life he made some enemies and many friends.") I removed it because I though that that could apply to just about any of us. It sounds more like a eulogy than an encyclopaedia article. Ground Zero 8 July 2005 16:15 (UTC)
I've reverted your addition of Richest British politicians to articles on offices and officeholders–I can't see how the two are related enough to justify such a link. Mackensen(talk)19:56, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's a non-sequiter at best, and POV at worst. There's no real link between personal wealth and any specific office–there is arguably a link between personal wealth and political activity, particularly before the twentieth century. I'm not convinced that such an article is necessary at all; I also think there are several problems with it:
The list is based on probate records (as you note), which has no correlation with the time in which a politician held office
The list makes no differentiation between realized and precarious income, which means you can't tell a great landholder from an upstart businessman
The list seems to be unsourced and is probably original research
The list doesn't take into account inflation, nor does it provide any sense of scale, save in relation to itself.
Please read my comment more carefully. As it happens, I'm also a paid subscriber to the DNB and I figured that the information came from there. I don't doubt the contributors either–my father authored the entry on Dr. John Moore. That being said, the list itself is original research. A minor point, unless taken in conjunction with the others I've listed, which you haven't addressed. Mackensen(talk)21:55, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not aware of a good index for inflation–I don't think that it becomes a serious problem until after the First World War. My concern about scale was related to that point–Cecil Rhodes' five million pounds were worth far more then than they are now, especially as compared to the average working-class family. I think you also need to set criteria for inclusion. For example, although British, Rhodes might be better described as a South African politician. I think a starting point would be all cabinet holders who entered politics after 1820 or so. Mackensen(talk)22:22, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Do you have a source for the assertations you have made about Jelicoe's handling of the Battle of Jutland? To say he certainly made no mistakes without citing a source for this view is not NPOV. Clearly, many people feel he did make mistakes - the article should reflect that shouldn't it? Also, I'm not sure this page is the best one for a detailed discussion of questions about Jutland. There is already a better discussion on Battle of Jutland. Shimbo18:03, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, you seem to have edited quite a bit about the Romanovs. I have just moved a page to this title Grand Duke Peter Nicolaievich of Russia and expanded it a little. Could you just check it out, and make sure it's Ok. Its not really my subject, but I had just finished a book where his wife was mentioned which is how I knew the page was formerly misnamed - at least I hope it was!

Noface1 has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Happy editing! Smile at others by adding ((subst:smile)), ((subst:smile2)) or ((subst:smile3)) to their talk page with a friendly message.
Another editor has added the ((prod)) template to the article North Shore, New Brunswick, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the ((prod)) template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 05:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of List of British military, naval and air force figures by wealth at death
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of British military, naval and air force figures by wealth at death, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((dated prod)) notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
A tag has been placed on Bunting tossers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hangon)) to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. The Llama! (talk) 23:25, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of List of British politicians by wealth at death
I have nominated List of British politicians by wealth at death, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of British politicians by wealth at death. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Hi, thanks for the note. First off, the material in question was unreferenced. The statements were also not in keeping with our policy of neutral point of view in saying that, for example, "Few people bear comparison to Winston Churchill." While these tidbits make for very enjoyable reading in, say, biographies, on Wikipedia we need to keep things referenced, neutral, and factual. The page I linked to on neutral point of view gives some examples (see, for relevant examples, "impartial tone" and "let the facts speak for themselves".)

This message was sent as a courtesy reminder to all active members of the Military History WikiProject.
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.

Hello, Polycarp. Voting in the 2017 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 10 December. All users who registered an account before Saturday, 28 October 2017, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Wednesday, 1 November 2017 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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.
As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. 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.
Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team. Cheers, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:54, 1 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you haven't and would like to, vote here before 23:59 UTC on 28 September. Thanks, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 03:29, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Polycarp. Voting in the 2018 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23.59 on Sunday, 3 December. All users who registered an account before Sunday, 28 October 2018, made at least 150 mainspace edits before Thursday, 1 November 2018 and are not currently blocked are eligible to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority 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.
Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available here. If you are interested in running, please sign up here by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the coord team. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 02:38, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
