'Unofficial regional anthem' edit

Could you explain what you mean by this? Dubmill (talk) 16:53, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

The Official National Anthem of Gibraltar is God Save The Queen as it is a overseas territory of the United Kingdom. The Gibraltar Anthem is used to represent Gibraltar when it is inappropriate to use God Save the Queen i.e. when represented apart other territories or regions of the UK and the Commonwealth Games --Lemonade100 (talk) 17:02, 13 March 2009 (GMT)

I see what you mean, but I was querying the use of the word 'regional'. This is a geographical term and would therefore include places nearby having no connection to Gibraltar or its anthem, eg Spain or Portugal. I would suggest replacement of the word 'regional' by 'local'. Dubmill (talk) 17:06, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

It means a region of the United KIngdom and its territories not a region as in part of Iberia. --Lemonade100 (talk) 17:08, 13 March 2009 (GMT)

Should it not be captalised then? ('Regional', not 'regional') Dubmill (talk) 17:10, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yeah! Why Not? I will change it. --Lemonade100 (talk) 17:12, 13 March 2009 (GMT)

I note also that on the wikipedia page for Gibraltar that it is described as an 'overseas TERRITORY' of the United Kingdom. Are you sure that 'Region' is correct? Dubmill (talk) 17:17, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yes I am as REGIONAL is also used to describe Anthems of other British TERRITORIES and Crown Dependancies (not including IoM as it has declared God save the Queen as its Royal Anthem and its anthem in now official).

Period or Full Stop edit

Hello, Just a note that both terms are correct, and interchangeable. I reworded the French Language text to include both as you seem to prefer Full Stop over the other, and to avoid any miss understandings, but as you can see by the article Full_stop both are accepted. Wikipedia does not make a preference to British, American, Canadian or any particular English variation. --Mrboire (talk) 18:16, 25 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I just thought that full stop cannot get mixed up with anything else but there are several things period can be mistook for. Lemonade100 (talk) 16:48, 26 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
In many ways you are completely correct, it's all about what "version" of English you speak, and that is why I reworded it to include both terminologies, it's a fluid encyclopedia!. (For example: here if you say full stop, they think you are talking about stopping a car at a stop sign!, they do not understand!). Thanks for the discussion. (FYI, place a talkback on my discussion page if you respond so I know! Lots of little things on Wiki!)--Mrboire (talk) 00:25, 28 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

August 2009 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to British people, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. This is also another request that you fill in an edit summary when making changes to articles --Jza84 |  Talk  22:06, 16 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --Mais oui! (talk) 19:14, 1 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Sorry but you are the one reverting necessary changes.
Always sign your posts. Take this to the Template Talk page. --Mais oui! (talk) 19:19, 1 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Date articles edit

Hello. I undid part of your change to an entry on April 26 because it didn't conform to the date page guideline at WP:DAYS. If you have any questions, please ask. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 16:09, 26 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks sorry there was an edit conflict and I tried putting both in sorry if it cause any inconvenience.

Signing posts edit

  Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as on Talk:United Kingdom, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button   located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 16:40, 26 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

Todmorden edit

Re this edit - at the time that the Lancashire League was formed, the Lancs/Yorks county boundary ran through Todmorden, not around the edge; indeed, not many years earlier, it actually ran right through the Town Hall itself. Since the cricket authorities follow traditional counties (Lancashire CCC playing at Old Trafford, and the continued existence of Middlesex CCC both being evidence of that), Todmorden has every right to be a member of Lancashire League. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:24, 5 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

I never said it didn't have a right and yes they do use the Traditional counties (by the way Todmorden was moved fully in to yorks pre 1970s, in the 1880s, it is still classified as traditionally in Yorks) I was mearly pointing out the novelty of it. I am from Todmorden (and know very well what the old boundry was and has been) and am proud of its status as being one of the only Yorkshire teams in a Lancashire league, and I am guessing by your name "redrose64" that you are a proud Lancastrian. I stand by the edit I made as I thought it was just a nice bit of information that would like to be known. Todmorden has been in Yorkshire well over 100 years now, No-one alive born in todmorden has been norn in Lancashire, so move on if you are really so botherd about such. Thank you for your voice but like I said it was just a nice bit of info - not a slight or complaint.

- OH and just for your information Todmorden was 100% in Yorks before the league was formed :D

November 2010 edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

February 2011 edit

Your edits to Wales, Scotland and England have been reverted. Please experiment in a sandbox, instead of carrying out test edits on such high profile articles.

Also, if you are making controvercial edits, it is essential that you achieve consensus on the article's Talkpage first. If you have any questions, please ask.
