| Yes, that woudl be good. Essentially, I am working on the version you sent me, fixing up disambiguation links. I am also removing some, as the links are incorrect (for instance, I am sure you do not mean ] to be an album by a heavy metal band or a the Axis powers in WW2). Also, take a look at ] version on Vero when you have a chance. ] 13:33, 16 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::*Shit! I have just looked at ] this is why I need copyediting all the time, I use words that sound Italian or Latin and assume they mean the same in English, I understood axis to mean "designed in line with".

| ::I thought where the missing image now is in the 20th century section, originally a fair use book cover, the empty space is still there with the caption.

| :*I thought they had sensibly chopped all their heads off. I've often wondered about a nation that felt the need to invent the bidet but I digress. I'm not sure at all about French titles, I thought knights were chevaliers or something - I had better not comment. I think quite a lot of the French "nobility" invented their own titles. Whatever, this whole thing of people getting a page because they happen to have had a great grandfather who was notable is all becoming a little silly, but fear not, I have a cunning plan. ] 16:13, 17 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::These ] were unhelpfully created by a Belgian user who has a habit of ] regarding nobility articles. The Baronets and Peers are indeed silly but categories for Seigneurs are worse as they are the equivalent to English ] (tied to property not genes) and there must be tens of thousands of them in France probably all having similar names... ] 16:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::I may have been mistaken about Sieur being the equivalent of a Knight- ] it is merely a contraction of Seigneur but in my experience Sieur and Seigneur do not seem to be interchangeable for a given Seigneurie so maybe it is just something that resulted from habit rather than protocol. ] 16:30, 17 October 2007 (UTC) | |||

| ==Tony Sidaway== | |||
| Giano, I love you too. But as for your comment on Tony's page, making sure he read your response to his rudeness is enough. It does not matter whether it is deleted or not by him oh his friends. I thought I better post it here first before the 3RR warning from certain quarters pops up. | |||
| Now that I said it, whoever came here to post the 3RR warning, please use the space below. But please consider not posting it. Giano knows 3RR and blocking him has always done nothing good to the project or the blocker. --] 22:43, 30 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::Its enough for me that you love me too Irpen. I suppose I must just accept the 3RR police will be arriving shortly, what is that expression "''better to have loved and lived than...''." something like that anyway. Bishonen will know she is very good on English literature. 22:48, 30 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Well, you know I also ]. Or at least I thought so and even ]. I thought too much though, as the gibberish it was as it seemed at my first non-sophisticated sight. --] 22:56, 30 October 2007 (UTC) | |||

| :Dude, don't escalate things. I saw Tony's original note, in it's original context, at the time, and my immediate thought was 'Tony's being a jerk again". Many wikieditors know what kind of guy Tony Sidaway is, so you don't need to do anything, he shows it himself. ] 23:32, 30 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :: You are in fine mettle today, Giano. Revert warring on talk pages, name calling, crowing about ArbCom (I'm surprised the champagne hasn't been cracked open yet, or would that be in poor taste from an uninvolved observer?) You should take a step back, cool off, and write some content, because if you carry along this path you will likely find yourself blocked before too long. ]<font color="black">e</font>] 23:35, 30 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
