It would be nice if someone could get hold of one of those Punch cartoons from the period to illustrate this article - I've seen a few in the past that would do the job - does anyone know how one could get hold of one, and what the copywrite status would be? Mammal4 22:36, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Shit other than yours. -- Unbuttered parsnip (talk) mytime= Fri 13:48, wikitime= 05:48, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

... and one is not even allowed to respond on this talk page --

CT. not that I know of, and was as bemused as you by the edit and the non-standard results we ended up with.
UP, please do not edit war to your preferred version. Please see WP:BRD and discuss your proposed changes here. - SchroCat (talk) 06:43, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
Well, I'm proud to be the new co-OWNer of an article to which my sole contribution is the deletion of a superfluous word. Don't forget to run any changes by me before you dare to implement them. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 07:09, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

For instance, this. Only a pigfucking moron doesn't understand the difference between a "constrution" and a "construction". Revert now, and seek my permission next time before you blemish this article further. Curly Turkey ¡gobble! 07:12, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
