Mark Thatcher

Your move of this page is against wikipedia policiy on article naming conventions. Furthermore, your further editing of the original Mark Thatcher page has meant that a move back (without cut an paste) is now impossible! The page will have to be deleted and re-instated by an administrator. Please do not do this again. Jooler 23:08, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Fear not, it is now sorted. Rich Farmbrough 00:02, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Well then Misplaced Pages should not have allowed the change, we are not all mind readers are we!! And please do not tell me what to do ("Please do not do this again"), you make yourself sound very rude and arrogant. --Surrey10 22:38, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Barony of Silkin

Perhaps if you used a more relevant source, like Burke's Peerage, you'd realise you're talking a load of rubbish. Proteus (Talk) 11:10, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
