We need short a précis of any state that was a British colony before 1649 and it needs to be written by an editor who can stop at 1649. Casual page stalkers studying their neighbour’s cousin’s great great arch grandfather arriving in or after 1649 are not required, no matter how valiantly they fought Red Indians, Eskimos, Cowboys, Mexicans or whatever the locals were currently called.

She had 5 daughters, a few of whom married into...uhm, certain families (not my Mom - she went Irish/French).

However, it does have the flanking wings which are Palladian, and the Inigo Jones Palladian alternating segmental and pointed window pediments at the centre, so in the balance of things I would say it is more Palladian than Carolean, it’s too late for the latter anyway.

The 1st footman keeps muttering about social distancing and throwing my food at me across the dining room. I don’t know why I employ all these people, much more of this insurrection and I shall farrow them all and let Boris Johnson pay their wages. Now, they’ve cancelled Ascot, Henley and Wimbledon, I’ve half a mind to come and join you in Sweden, I’m sure you have a spare room? ] (]) 10:30, 21 April 2020 (UTC) | |||

- I think you may be confusing Giano with another editor, and in any case, Giano has not edited since last August. I have unprotected that talk page. Cullen328 (talk) 22:36, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

Amendment request: Durova
Hello Giano,
As one of the original parties to the "Durova" arbitration case, you may be interested in the current amendment request about the Durova case. A motion has been proposed to modify principle 2 by removing copyright-related wording from it.
Best regards,

- Discuss this at: Misplaced Pages talk:Arbitration Committee/Noticeboard § Arbitration motion regarding Durova
- An intelligent person would leave that disgraceful episode in Misplaced Pages’s ancient history firmly buried in the past. The posting of that far from private email wasn’t the disgrace. The disgrace was why it was necessary to post it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.29.238.45 (talk) 19:56, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
