==Rule on RM moratorium== | |||
]: I created another discussion a few hours after the previous one was closed, is this allowed? Please advise. ] (]) 23:59, 10 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
:There isn't currently a hard and fast rule but it depends on a mixture of the options on the table, the users involved and the level of discussion. Sometimes a discussion brings up an alternate title that's best considered in its own right and so a follow-on RM is useful and accepted as a way forward. But that's very different from immediately launching a new RM on exactly the same options as the earlier one, and starting it both times, because the previous didn't go the way you wanted. ] (]) 07:27, 11 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
:* Thanks for your reply. So if I start an RM to a different title it would be OK right? ] (]) 19:47, 11 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
:**Depends very much on the individual circumstances and what came up in the discussion. If there was overwhelming support for the current title then an alternative is unlikely to go anywhere. If there was heavy dissatisfaction with the current one but dislike for the alternative a more focused discussion may help. But in general wait a while and discuss it informally rather than launching new RMs immediately after the old have closed. ] (]) 23:41, 11 September 2014 (UTC) | |||
== Irish linguists == | |||
I just didn't (and still don't) understand the difference ] vs. ]. For this reason I unified them. - ] (]) 14:10, 27 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:See ] and ] for the difference in area. Changing the use away from the configuration of the articles is always controversial and should be discussed first. ] (]) 18:13, 27 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
The policy is ]. As for the distiction, I consider it obvious that the intention of both categories creators' was to to collect scientists of Irish nationality, and that the later wasn't aware of the earlier. Else, why are both categories in ]? If you keep them separate, half of the linguists won't be found. - ] (]) 19:26, 27 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:The categories were set up under the current names at the same time. Ireland is a complex case and categories are generally set up with one for the state and another for the island to also catch Northern Ireland which is also in the UK categories. And please don't use disputed terms like "Irish nationality" in these discussions. ] (]) 20:12, 28 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
You didn't have a look at the two linguist categories I'm speaking about, did you? - ] (]) 20:35, 28 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:Yes I did. They're confused, not helped by using templates to generate tables of links and automatic categorisation that doesn't take the particular national case into account. ] (]) 23:56, 29 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
I just posted the issue to ]. - ] (]) 19:20, 29 October 2014 (UTC) | |||

Welcome to my talk page.
Please note that I prefer to have substantial discussions about individual articles on their own talk pages rather than here, so that all editors of those articles can see them and contribute.
Please also note that I prefer conversations to be in one place. I will reply to comments where they are left and, if necessary, transfer comments back to the original talk page where the conversation was initiated.

Doctors galore
Hi T. Great to see your name again. Fanboy splitting hairs time over your post here - Hurndall was playing the same Dr that Hartnell had. Hurt played a different one from the others. Just one fans opinion of course and I certainly see where you are coming from. Apologies for intruding into your evening (my time anyway) with this but it does give me the chance to leave the following. Cheers. MarnetteD|Talk 00:25, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

- Thanks for the virtual card. I see what you mean but that's an in-universe distinction and the box should be out-of-universe. Otherwise you might as well add the Doctor's additional faces from the Brain of Morbius! Timrollpickering (talk)
Winnie...
Hi Tim.
I started a new section in the Churchill talk-page regarding the name change, and would welcome your thoughts on it.
Merry Christmas to you. Or Happy Holidays, if you prefer!
