Hi Wdcf, it's been suggested that we close [[Talk:Countries_of_the_United_Kingdom#Suggest_we_close the discussion on 'Countries of the United Kingdom']] with the conclusion that the diagram and link relating to British Isles was inappropriate for that article anyway. (A new RFC/discussion will open elsewhere on the question of the Channel Islands.)
Are you OK with removing the diagram again (on that article)? --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 10:29, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Wdcf, British Isles and Channel Island aside, that article is on an entirely different topic. It is not about the British Isles. There is a map at the top that show the countries on the United Kingdom. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 11:58, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
Following from a discussion you were a participant in on Talk:Countries of the United Kingdom, a (limited) RFC has been opened inviting comments on whether the Channel Islands should be treated as part of the British Isles on Wikipedia. All views are welcome here. --rannṗáirtí anaiṫnid (coṁrá) 20:32, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
Hello, nice work with the Supranational European Bodies.png file! I would like to use it on a non-English wikipedia, but then have to translate the different country names. It is possible to access an editable version (e.g., svg) of this file rather than the png version? --KYN (talk) 14:55, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
One more thing about File:Supranational European Bodies-en.png. The only European country that is missing in the figure is Belarus. This country doesn't participate in any of the presented bodies, but the figure would become more complete if Belarus is shown somewhere outside the bodies. If you decide do go along with this idea, please add it also to the Swedish version. --KYN (talk) 09:14, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi again, I just noticed that you have updated the English version with Estonia's inclusion into the Euro zone. Can you please update also the Swedish version of the image? --KYN (talk) 18:40, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Hi, can You add the Opt-Out countries and the European Exchange Rate countries as well?
Nifty idea. I wished that this kind of diagrams existed in text books in my time, so I didn't have to fail History that easily. I'd just like to point out that the spelling for Straights Settlements should be Straits Settlements because they're situated along the Straits of Malacca, and also because there's nothing straight about the settlements.

This is great work. Except that in 1965, Singapore did not actually secede. It did not want to secede. It was expelled by the Parliament. __earth (Talk) 12:36, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
“ | Unable to resolve the crisis, the Tunku decided to expel Singapore from Malaysia, choosing to "sever all ties with a State Government that showed no measure of loyalty to its Central Government". Lee was adamant and tried to work out a compromise, but without success. He was later convinced by Goh Keng Swee that the secession was inevitable. Lee signed a separation agreement on 7 August 1965, which discussed Singapore's post-separation relations with Malaysia in order to continue co-operation in areas such as trade and mutual defence. | ” |
Hence, by using the word "expel" it fringes on POV while the word "separate" would be a better candidate per NPOV. Please note that this is also a common occurrence in the article page of Singapore where sneaky attempts by several POV-pushers has been made over time to change from separation to expulsion. Thoughts? --Dave ♠♣♥♦™№1185©♪♫® 09:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
Hello. I have just proposed Multi-speed Europe for deletion. Please join in the discussion if you care to. Jaque Hammer (talk) 13:34, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:25, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
Is this the complete transcript of the voice-over? If so, that would constitute a violation of the BBC's copyright. —Ruud 11:47, 10 October 2011 (UTC)
Hello Wdcf. Thank you for this amazing diagram, it is very hepful. I was wondering if you would be able to please update it to move Liechtenstein within the Schengen Area? Liechtenstein implemented the Schengen Agreement as of today (19 December). (Source) Many thanks again! (Connolly15 (talk) 15:29, 19 December 2011 (UTC))
Great diagram!
However, there are three places where the background is black accidentally. Could you fix that? I don't know how.
All the best, Climatophile (talk) 19:37, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:South Oxfordshire District Council Logo.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Jonteemil (talk) 23:50, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
