Sorry, about that. I mixed you up with the Bold Guy who posted below. You see, that's a disadvantage of not having a username but I am glad that this is rectified now. Welcome! Str1977 08:52, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm glad I have joined in. Last king of Frisia (talk) 08:53, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Of course, every editor is welcome, though as everywhere there are meanies in WP too. And sometimes tempers heat up. If that happens, don't let that bring you down. And you needn't worry - you can use your account as often or as seldom as you wish. Str1977 09:00, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Won't they close it if I happened to be unactive for months, maybe a year? I regulary have to go to Switzerland for my job so... I would hate to see my account closed when I am back again. Last king of Frisia (talk) 09:02, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

No, if you are inactive you are merely inactive. Unless you yourself chose to delete it, to my knowledge WP will not do it. Str1977 09:14, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Pier Gerlofs Donia

Thanks for your invitation to review the above article. Unfortunately I don't have time at the moment - I'm tied up with a number of article copyedits - but it should get some attention soon. As I'm sure you noticed, the GA review list is perpetually backlogged, but most articles are reviewed within a few weeks. All the best, EyeSerene 08:09, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. Last king of Frisia (talk) 08:57, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Apologies

I am sorry for any offence that has been caused, no insult was intended. I am not very good with languages which is why I added "maybe German". Happy editing, Guest9999 (talk) 09:47, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok. No worries. Care to help me search translators? Last king of Frisia (talk) 09:50, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, rather Last king of Frisia should apologize for his edit summary. As the article is a copy of the Frisian Misplaced Pages, I've deleted it per WP:CSD#A2 since we already have it inside the project. To get it translated please go in such cases to Misplaced Pages:Translation.--Tikiwont (talk) 09:59, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Tikiwont I understand. I apologize. You go and help me review Pier Gerlofs Donia for GA, chief Tipiwont? Last king of Frisia (talk) 10:02, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

So we're all fine. Now please note above reason for the deletion of Frisian battles and how to go about translation. Unfortunately I am not good at getting articles to GA status. Happy editing.--Tikiwont (talk) 10:19, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Frisian battles

Please use the talk pages for comments about the enceclopedia. The articles themselves should discuss the subject. I'll move your point to the talk page.... Koert van der Veer (talk) 10:09, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

This is your last warning. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Pier Gerlofs Donia. Koert van der Veer (talk) 10:22, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Jouke de Vries

I have added some wikification. However there needs to be more about his achievements as he does not appear very notable. Is he elected to a parliament? What else has he done apart from getting a degree and losing the faction leadership battle?

Are you a Donia as well? (as Grutte Pier) Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:05, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I'll translate some more info from the given sources (which are in Dutch)

And no, I am not a Donia. I am a Jelckama. My ancestor was allied to Donia, he was his nephew. We know him as Greate Wijard. I'm not sure whether or not he has an article, if not, I need to make him one! Last king of Frisia (talk) 11:08, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Check out Wierd Jelckama. One article you could write is on Fiveval a Frisian writer. I know absolutely nothing! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:19, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Fiveval is no writer! It is the name of the legend in which Greate Pier kills five men with a plough at the place called "Five fall" as in: The place were Five men have fallen. It is probably close to Donia estate, Kimswerd Friesland. In any case, it is a mistake easily made by those who do not understand frisian. You do see, however, how much Frisian language looks like english: Five = Vife, and Fall = fall. FiveFall. God I love my country! Last king of Frisia (talk) 11:23, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Could you explain the meaning of Fiveval again in the Grutte Pier#Fiveval paragraph. Then we can just redirct to that paragraph. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:43, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

I did. Care to make the section in to better Enlish for mine is not good enough for a professional article. Last king of Frisia (talk) 11:48, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Did You Know problem

Why did you send me this DYK message? -- RattleMan 09:04, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Because I thought: maybe you want to know about the greatest Frisian of all time. Don't you? Last king of Frisia (talk) 09:05, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Pier Gerlofs Donia

Did you know (DYK) about Greate Pier? Last king of Frisia (talk) 08:55, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

I didn't until ten minutes ago. Now, thanks to you and to Misplaced Pages, I am better informed. Why did you mention it? DavidFarmbrough (talk) 09:08, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

The thing is, the article is up for GA class and has been put on hold by its reviewer. I wondered that, since I have improved it very much since, maybe you could tell me: would it pass or fail at the moment? Last king of Frisia (talk) 09:10, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what GA class is, I don't know in what capacity the 'reviewer' is acting, nor for whom he acts. I don't know whether the 'reviewer' has the power to put an article 'on hold', nor what 'on hold' means in this context. Well done for trying to improve the article, but I cannot advise you on whether it would pass or fail whatever unspecified test you are referring to. Perhaps you meant to ask someone else?
