Good work!

For your work on Scotland, I , GraemeL, herby award you The Barnstar of National Merit. Congratulations! (KC)


Thank you very much, GraemeL. - Calgacus 00:34, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Bridei III of the Picts, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Bravo!

Respect regarding the immense amount of high quality work you have been doing recently on the Scottish history side. I was a bit sceptical at first, but I am slowly becoming more convinced by your approach. Some comments, very minor stuff, like: lack of Edit summaries (yeah, I know mine are a bit brief, but at least I do do them!), linking and cats. But hey, that's what Wikignomes are for, isn't it? The English vs actual naming issue is probably one that will have to be thrashed out somewhere sometime, but so far I think that you have been largely reasonable.

Misplaced Pages is not a job, it is a pleasant hobby, so nobody has any right to delegate responsibilities, but as you seem eminently qualified, may I request a new article:

... along the lines perhaps of Style of the British Sovereign, and probably some other articles.--Mais oui! 10:53, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

PS: Thoraldus: this was put up by a newbie recently. I have done minor Wikification, but what do you think?--Mais oui! 13:51, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks

LOL, yes, I'm afraid that Copernicus' case is hopeless. I can hardly understand it. All encyclopedias have him as Polish, even the German ones. I don't mind writing his German name in the article as he lived in German speaking part of Poland, so it seems only natural (we do the same with other people giving their Lithuanian, Belorussian, and Ukrainian names; after all only about 1/3 of citizens of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth spoke Polish as their mother tongue), but as you see it doesn't end revert wars.

Anyhow, thanks for trying and also solving the other problem so quickly. You're right. We'll do much better devoting our time to writing articles.--SylwiaS | talk 01:44, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Wow

The Jogaila "incident" got me involved in the weird and wild activities of this clique or camarilla of "editors" that are always pushing POV propaganda concerning their pet projects. Their tired old names and arguments span the entire timelime of what Misplaced Pages entails, and its a little disturbing. Take a look at the talk page of the German 17th Infantry Division, and tell me I'm off the mark (if I am). Dr. Dan 02:44, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Sex Offender Category

Hi Calgacus. I have added a topic to the Graham Rix talk page regarding the Sex Offender category. I hope it is an accurate statement, and I wonder if you have anything to add. Cheers TigerShark 15:20, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello Calgacus, I re-worded the Category talk:Convicted child sex offenders to make it clear that local laws apply and each article will specify the crime and site sources. Comments? I also added my thoughts on Graham Rix --FloNight 00:21, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

"of Poland" format

Hi Calcagus,

In reply to your question, please have a look at my last edit to the Polish rulers NC page: diff

No, I don't suppose that in the end we will have "of Poland" for all Polish monarchs. But we will have it at least for some.

Presently I tend to think that a single uniform solution for all Polish monarchs will not work, so I'm looking forward to reading your further contributions at finding the most appropriate solution for all of them. You gave a good start, so please continue the work!

Note that also outside Polish kings there are a lot of monarchs not in a "of <Country>" format, notwithstanding that that is generally the recommended format. --Francis Schonken 18:45, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

Invitation

You are cordially invited to the Grand Reopening of my Bumper Sticker Gallery User:Space Cadet/Bumper Stickers. If my great work inspires you to come up with your own ideas for a sticker, T-shirt, poster, symbol, sign, etc., please let me know and I'll be happy to try to do my best for you. I will only turn down anything racial, anti-semitic, fascist and so on. Yours Truly, Space Cadet 23:13, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Nice article

Nice work on the Roman de Fergus article, man! I learned something and I enjoyed reading it. -- Cheers, Derek Ross | Talk 05:05, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

High King of Ireland

Yeah, sorry about putting Robert I as High King of Ireland. I got confused between him and his brother. Rshu 21:11, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
