Austrian colonial empire edit

I had splitted the page into smaller parts (the poor Ostend Company was really helped) and changed the name to Austrian colonial policy ("empire" sounds way to big for two complete failures). Thanks for the understanding, if I bungled it up let me know. Pavel Vozenilek 11:09, 31 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thats O.K I totaly understand, I merly thought that Austria's contribution to Colonialism {however small} needed to be repressented. Thanks for the changes.

The Second Mexican Empire could be seen as yet another failed semi-colonian adventure. The Emperor Franz Joseph I did not agreed with it but had allowed hiring volunteers in the country and the SMS Novara had shipped Maxmilian to Mexico (and back). Pavel Vozenilek 09:56, 1 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
A robot put {{unreferenced}} on the article about Nicobar Islands. Could you add a source there? TIA Pavel Vozenilek 09:56, 1 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

While it is true that the Second Mexican Empire was run by an Austrian, it was an almost purely french military venture, however I do agree that it desperves a mention. As to the source I have yet to find one but if anyone can then good luck to them!

Plagiarism edit

Hello, when you created Library of Constantinople last year, you seem to have copied extensive passages of text literally from here. This is plagiarism and copyright violation, so I had to remove that text again. Please be careful to avoid using text like this. I'd ask you to check with your other edits if there might be more material like that in other articles that you mistakenly inserted in this way. Fut.Perf. 09:04, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Vale of White Horse District Council election, 2019 moved to draftspace edit

An article you recently created, Vale of White Horse District Council election, 2019, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). The article also has multiple tables that haven't been filled in, suggesting that you are still working on it. I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can develop the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
