IRISH-SCOTS

Dear Sir:

Re the Irish-Scots page, I had made reverts because it has been sanitized and contains inaccuracies.

For instance:

Notable Irish-Scots include James Connolly and comedian Billy Connolly.

This is untrue: Sean Connery does not consider himself Irish, and James Connolly did not consider himself a Scot.

--Actually Sean Connerys grandfather came from Wexford and was an itinerant (irish tinker/traveler/pikey etc) who moved to scotland to find work and settled down there.--- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.94.177.144 (talk) 21:32, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

If you look at my list of factual, detailed individuals who qualify as true "Irish-Scots", you will see that the only reason my edits are not being accepted is because the true list contains unsavoury characters that the author of this page, Camillus McIlhenney, chose not to include for reasons you will need to ask him for, as I can but conjecture.

Historical note

The following version is mostly accurate but I added certain facts that were not included, including the origination of the word "Scot" (what it really means in what language). I also include the fact that the word Caledonia is often used/sung by "Scottish" nationalists to describe their homeland.

Answer: It means "thief" or "raider" in Irish, a fact that Mr. McIlhenney, again chose not to mention, as he chose not to include the word Caledonia, which he has told me is obsolete (1st century B.C. and devoid of any importance at all, although the same is not true of "Hibernia", which dates from the same time).

(From current edit which I do not dispute: Around the 5th-6th centuries, the original "Scoti" were people from Ireland who colonized the north of Britain, which was populated by Picti or Picts. The Picts themselves were known to some as "old-Irish", so there is a possibility that they themselves came from Ireland. Ireland was the original Scotland (Scotia), and the Irish the original Scats (Scoti), country and people being known to Roman and medieval Europe under those names. Scotland, serving for centuries as an Irish colony, was known as Lesser or New Scotland (Scotia Minor or Nova), the adjectives only being dropped about the 13th century, when Ireland had come into its present name. The Latin word for Irishman was Scotus. In Gaelic Scotch and Irish are known simply as Gaels of Albin and Gaels of Erin...)

IRISH-SCOTS PAGE

So at the risk of appearing foolish, I very seriously would like to clarify your point and understand its implications as you have laid them out in your brief email to me. Believe me, I am not trying to annoy you, and get a powerful enemy on Misplaced Pages:

• I cannot change anyone else's edits to a page 3 or more times in a 24 hour period, and, allegedly, no one can do that to my edits.

• However, if I add non politically-correct information (even sourced/cited information) that has the result of changing the net overall balance of a WikiPage into validating or backing up my point of view, it cannot stand if anyone complains, and will be regarded as vandalism.

Is this correct?

Thank you for your time.

Your VandalProof Application

Dear Xxpor,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that that you don't have enough edits in the main namespace yet. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.
