Hi. When you recently edited Trevor King (loyalist), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ballymurphy ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You beat me to it! I'd been planning on making an article about this for months but never got round to it. I hav a stack of information saved in a document, "on standby" as it were. Let me know when you're done with the first phase of construction and I'll begin mine as soon as I can (you know... adding the roof, doors, windows, a.s.f).
It's looking good so far.

Hello Jeanne Boleyn, I am sorry that you had to revert all the edits that 92.36.146.6 did. I had informed that he is disruptive, though he just said that I was disruptive by reverting his edits. He even went off of English consorts and was taking away the Princess of Beira information off of articles of women that were soley Princesses of Beira. Well I hope that this disruptive IP was not a big inconvinience to you, I just thought I should say thank you for reverting all his edits, users like you are why wikipedia is a helpful and informative place. Cheers, Cristiano Tomás ( talk) 07:00, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
The "predecessor" and "successor" parameters have never been used in infoboxes in articles about consorts until a user unilaterally and without any discussion or explanation added them in April 2012. That was the undiscussed edit that made the articles about English queens inconsistent with the articles about all the other European queens. Infoboxes in articles about the rest of European queens consort do not have these parameters. Why? Because they are not supposed to. The documentation clearly says that those parameters are "for use in succession whose titles are entirely and directly hereditary". This is not a personal crusade; you should try to assume good faith before proceeding to accuse an editor. You were both so eager to revert my edits that you reinserted a bunch of clearly wrong information, such as claims that three men were queens, that a woman was succeedd by woman who had died 15 years earlier or that the crown of Scotland ceased to exist in 1619. You should also take an effort to explain the reversion of an explained edit. Thanks, 92.36.169.45 ( talk) 17:40, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi, Jeanne! A few days ago, I was wondering about Catherine, the elder daughter of Queen Joan I of Naples and Louis, Prince of Taranto. She died aged 17 as heiress presumptive to the thrones of Naples and Provence. Unfortunatly, I haven't been able to find much about her, which surprises me; marrying the 16-year-old daughter and only child of a reigning queen of Naples and countess of Provence must have been the best thing that could have happened to a 14th century European prince! Can you find any information? Surtsicna ( talk) 17:22, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

Buongiorno a Lei da Campora San Giovanni,
le scrivo per sapere come sta e per salutarla ed augurarle un eccellente weekend qualora non ci dovessimo sentire prima. Oltre a questo le chiedo sempre e comunque gentilmente una breve rilettura dell'articolo creato qualche giorno fa sulla radio ammiraglia della mia regione natale, e che viene ascoltata quasi in mezzo sud Italia. giusto una decina di minuti per migliorare la morfologia, la grammatica e la sintassi in inglese. le chiedo sempre e comunque gentilmente le chiedo come si mette lo streaming della radio che in questo caso si trova cliccando su on air nel sito della radio sennò esce così, ad ogni modo la ringrazio per tutto quello che ha fatto, fa e farà per me.

Hey Jeanne! How have you been recently? I see you've found my Anne of Auvergne article, the red link to her name had been bugging me for a while I had to do something about it and on Catherine of Naples, I originally added her name to her mother, Queen Joan's article and I thought there must have been some info on her but I could find very little, not enough for an article. Also, I've been thinking about creating an article for Isabel Stewart, daughter of James II and Mary of Modena, though I know she lived only for a short time looking at her mother's article there's a few details about her life. Also, I've become a BIG Madonna fan in the last year, do you like her? I believe you like the Borderline video :) -- David ( talk) 17:52, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Hello. I wanted to let you know that I have nominated Elizabeth Cheney (disambiguation) for deletion under WP:CSD#G6, this is because it is an unnecessary disambiguation page with only two items of which one is the primary topic (Elizabeth Cheney, the American attorney). I've amended the hatnote at Elizabeth Cheney so others can find the information on the English aristocrat. For more information see WP:MOSDAB or feel free to get in touch.

Please see Talk:Amy Brown (royal wife). 82.237.218.242 ( talk) 10:12, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
In 2006 there was a debate which revolved around quality or quantity ( Wikipedia:100,000 feature-quality articles), and since that time there has been a gradual acceptance that if Wikipedia is to be a trusted source for information then it needs to cite reliable sources for most information that it publishes.
As Wikipedia is a work in progress and the need for citations was not considered so necessary in years gone by, there are many articles which if written today would not meet the requirements considered necessary to survive an AfD.
For these reasons when you come across an old articles such as Anne of York, Duchess of Exeter, to gradually improve them and bring them up to the standards that good articles now require, it helps if all new information added to an article carries inline citations. Then only the older information will need to have citations added to it some time in the future -- not the more recent stuff.
So when you add information to an article as you did here please consider adding an in-line citation to support it.
If (as was true in this case) there is no citation on the sentence that immediately precedes your new text then placing {{ citation needed}} after the last old text and before your new text make it clear that your in-line citation only covers the text that you have added.

Hello Jeanne, there are paid for academic sites currently being offered free to WP editors here and here so suggest you put your name down now. They are Highbeam and Questia. I've now got Highbeam this way and I've applied for Questia. Additionally I have access to Credo, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography and a few others so if you were looking for biographical info just let me know and I'll look them up. If they're medieval Brits there's a chance I can get some info for you. Incidently, I can't see much wrong with the site that you do use to get your info on medieval women - it seems a well researched site. I've checked areas on it where I'm familiar with and the material has been spot-on. Let me know if I can help. Regards -- Bill Reid | ( talk) 18:26, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
I saw your bit at the Jimmy Wales Talk page... I empathize. Bear in mind that primary sources aren't banned, they are just discouraged — and if push comes to shove at Articles for Deletion you're going to need to muster multiple published sources in a notability defense. The safest thing to do, I've found, is to make sure you have the published sourcing before you start — then use the primary sources to flesh out the story if you need to do that. You probably already know this. As for citing your own site, as long as you're footnoting and its accurate and its not commercial, don't hesitate to use it when need arises to document this or that. But again: it's KEY to make sure you have published sources in hand on a topic before you even start to write. There are encyclopedic dictionaries published everywhere about everything — track down a couple likely candidates and buy them; and if money is that big of a problem (they can be hugely expensive), figure out how to shake some coins loose from Wikimedia Foundation, which has bucks. The subscriptions for journal articles mentioned above would also be a boon; figure out how to get on that list or make friends with someone with access who can send you a pdf or two as needed. Keep up the good work. —Tim Davenport /// Carrite ( talk) 18:58, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

I thought it was about time this article was created.This horrible incident has been totally forgotten.Finding details about it is proving very difficult to say the least. Regarding which unit of the UVF were responsible is hard to say.As far as I know there was no "North Antrim" brigade of the UVF.They had a presence in Ballymena itself albeit a minority one as most of Ballymena and the outer lying North Antrim area is strong UDA territory.Another possible thought is perhaps Antrim town itself, both the UDA and UVF were active there although the UDA would of had a bigger presence.My idea though is likely that the killers were not local and perhaps were acting on faulty intelligence.The pub was Catholic owned yes but the rural area it's in is predominately Protestant and the nearby villages of Kells/Connor and the bigger town of Randalstown would be defined as loyalist.So it would be bizarre to think whatever few Catholics around would go to that bar, any local loyalist would have known Protestants frequented it. Interestingly another Catholic owned bar up the road The Wayside Halt was attacked around the time of the Workers Strike for apparently staying open by the UDA.The owner and a relative were killed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DColt ( talk • contribs) 17:43, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for the grammatical and other corrections, and for improving the article. I rv "Protestant" from Sandy Row as I though that the references to it as a loyalist area indicated that automatically, just to explain. Also, I don't quite think Henrietta Cowan and Christine Smith are quite as notable as Lee Harvey Oswald as you indicated facetiously in one of the edit summaries. I don't mean to irritate. I know you put a lot of work into the article and I was just trying to help in my own way. Yours, Quis separabit? 20:43, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
Questions like [sic] should 1916 be commemorated? Should there be a military parade? These questions are in reality irritating diversionary tactics utilized by those whose real mental posture is the colonial cringe and whose political philosophy is crypto unionism.
The basic importance of 1916 is that it formed a substantive, motivating role in the securing of independence, one of the three great turning points of Ireland in the 20th century ... [w]ithout the foregoing the Republic today would be on the same handout level as the six counties, and to a lesser degree Scotland and Wales.

I removed the information from Robin Jackson as it does not qualify for inclusion per WP:EXCEPTIONAL. WP policy is quite clear on this:
Any exceptional claim requires multiple high-quality sources.

In general, any tabloid newspaper, television show, or site, such as The Sun, The Daily Mirror, The Register, and so on, should not be used when a more respected, mainstream source exists.
A single report from a low-grade British tabloid is the definition of a poor source. Unless there are multiple high-quality sources for this there is no reason for the passage to stand.-- Shipyard Special ( talk) 23:17, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

Greetings. As an administrator, I closed the deletion nomination for your various userpage images. They were not deleted. If there are any you would like to have deleted after all, you can feel free to tag the image with {{

and an admin will delete it. Otherwise, they should be fine.
Would you like for these images to be moved to the Commons? Or would you prefer that I tag them to be kept locally on Wikipedia?

Hi there. I would very much appreciate it if you could spend ~2 minutes and take a short survey - a project trying to understand why the most active Wikipedia contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. I sent you an email with details, if you did not get it please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. I would very much appreciate your cooperation, as you are among the most active Wikipedia editors who show a pattern of reduced activity, and thus your response would be extremely valuable. Thanks! -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:35, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Your upload of File:Jeanne and Tatiana 1998.jpg is noted. Whilst Wikipedia accepts a vast range of media, you are urged to consider if you really do want this image to be present on a public site, where it could be used for many purposes over which you, or the subjects of the photo may have little control.
It is also strongly suggested that you discuss the image with a suitable administrator. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 14:50, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi Jeanne. I looked at the Operation Banner article after seeing your comments on the talk page. The UDR was grossly misrepresented in this article and I believe far too much has been made of the 1973 "Subversion in the UDR" report to create POV against the UDR. In fact the entire page is full of POV against the British Government and isn't, in my opinion, a good article on the operation. I have deleted the worst of the POV from the "Collusion" section but I don't have time to take this (and 100 other articles like it) under my wing at the moment. If you have then I for one would welcome your input. There is some information on Ulsterisation on the main article for the Ulster Defence Regiment but I would be wary of putting too much info in. Operation Banner was a huge mission and no one article on the wiki can do more than give a brief overview and that's how I would approach it - as an overview, without going into too much depth on any subject but linking out to the vast amounts of info contained elsewhere on Wikipedia. SonofSetanta ( talk) 10:54, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
I know you have an interest in this individual. I was able to establish some information following your request on the UDR talk page and I've posted my findings at Talk:Billy_Hanna#Hanna.27s_military_links. I hope you find it useful. SonofSetanta ( talk) 14:22, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
Help build the Wikipedia community in Southern California at " Come Edit Wikipedia!" presented by the West Hollywood Library on Saturday, August 31st, 2013 from 1-5pm. Drop in for some lively editing and conversation! Plus, it's a library, so there are plenty of sources. -- Olegkagan ( talk) — Message delivered by Hazard-Bot at 02:34, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
Jeanne thanks for your comments on my talk page. It means a lot to me to have someone appreciate what I do even if it is in regards to criminals. I note your comments about citations in the lead - thanks for the guidance. SonofSetanta ( talk) 11:18, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
I'd be interested in your comments regarding the comments I left at Talk:Billy_Hanna#Hanna.27s_military_links. It is an issue you were seeking information on at an earlier time. SonofSetanta ( talk) 11:51, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
Just a wee question. Why bother changing the Harvard quotes to the full listing for Potter? Why not just list the book in the bibliography? (which I should have done). SonofSetanta ( talk) 12:59, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
I note your comments on the Miami Showband regarding my edits. It would ill behoove any civilised person to take issue with the horrors of this particular atrocity and as I was directly affected by it you would be wrong to think I had any issues with the truth. May I suggest you look at what I've actually said and try to tighten the article up. The text I removed was surplus to requirement. It would look good in a book on the subject but Wikipedia isn't a book. Sentimentality certainly doesn't belong here. SonofSetanta ( talk) 11:44, 1 September 2013 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Ulster Peoples Voice is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ulster Peoples Voice until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Basket Feudalist 13:12, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Hillcrest Bar bombing, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Labour Party ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, Can you please provide a rational for your decision to revert the edit I made to the 1971 Balmoral Furniture Company bombing article? As the article itself states, this attack was carried out as an attempted 'retaliation' for the McGurk's Bar bombing a week earlier, so how can it be that this bombing sparked a series of tit-for-tat bombings and shootings?

Not sure if you're still looking to do an article about the bombing but if you are let me know as I have a picture of a commemorative plaque that was recently put on the side that could be added.

I edited the 1970s and 1980s fashion pages because they were stereotypical and inaccurate. There were barely any sources for the content and most of it is just fads. I only include the major trends, and I search the world over for sources that are actually reliable and make sense. You have no idea how long it takes me to find these sources, and I don't appreciate you throwing insults at me to make you feel better.
Pictures aren't enough, because you could post a picture of someone wearing bell bottoms in 1985 and say "bell bottoms were popular in 1985". You say you wanted to fix the Wikipedia due to it's inaccuracy, well so do I, and that's what I'm actually doing. You can't just ignore these pages for a long time and come back to them and take over like a tyrant. There is no way 1980s fashion changed that fast, just look at wikimedia commons pictures of 1980s fashion.
I rearranged the pages to men and women in the '70s and '80s fashion pages. I found the '90s, '00s, and '10s fashion pages like that, and it makes it much more organized. Going "early 80s" and "mid-late 80s" is way too unorganized. I am going to undo your edit on 1980s fashion because you completely lack any sources, and they are entirely based on stereotypes, which I do not like. I may be a beginner compared to you, but don't belittle me just because I do things you don't agree with, because you were a beginner here too.

The article Margaret de Clare (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach

I have managed to get an image of his headstone but I have been informed it may not qualify for non free fair use.My rational is that due to the recent death of his brother the headstone in its current form won't exist anymore and the graveyard itself is located within the grounds of a church and seems to be quite private and sealed off.Could we argue this is an historic photograph and would you experience in this sort of dispute?Thanks DColt ( talk) 09:33, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi there! In this edit you state that not Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau's mother Marie Virginie de Ternant was a descendant of French nobility, as the article stated before your edit, but rather her grandmother Catherine Genois was. Neither statement has a source, and I'm not familiar enough with the subject to know which is correct. But seeing you used "ce" as an edit summary, I was wondering if this change of content indeed was the edit you wanted to make. Mark in wiki ( talk) 18:40, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear fellow Wikipedian, The LA Wikipedia community has two events in this second half of March -- please consider attending! First, there is a memorial edit-a-thon in honor of the prolific LA Wikipedian Adrianne Wadewitz, which is being held downtown on March 18 (tomorrow!) from noon to 8pm as a part of the American Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies' annual conference.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Murder of Anne Ogilby, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bloody Friday. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Excellent work on that one recently. Just thought I'd explain my last edit so as it didn't seem like a criticism. It's WP:SPS and you just know that if somebody with an axe to grind comes along wanting to impose their version of events the first thing they would do again be make a song and dance about the main contributor linking her own article. It's impeccably sourced as it is and those with an interest will find your article quickly enough but if you include it you're leaving yourself open to the next "expert" who shows up to wreak havoc.

I visited Umgall cemetery today and found her grave.I have uploaded the picture of it.Be advised though, I only did so because of the amount of hard work you have put in on the Anne Ogilvy article.Given the previous spat over the Wesley Somerville grave, I swore never to upload images again due to the amount of crap and red tape from certain quartets.However I made an exception for how great the Anne Ogilby page is now thanks to you.You may be surprised to know as per the grave she was 32 when she was killed.

I've checked my copy of Cusack and McDonald and I'm not sure we can really infer that he was South Belfast Brigadier from their mention of him. Page 31, as you reference, states "The South Belfast UDA commander, Sammy Murphy, drew his men up in Horn Drive and refused to let the Catholics in" but for me that isn't enough. It states commander rather than brigadier and the way it is phrased it could equally mean "the UDA commander who happened to be from South Belfast" as it could "the man who commanded the UDA in South Belfast". The only other references to his rank I can find are in Bruce's Red Hand and Robert Fisk's The Point of No Return, both of which call him a commander and only mention him in relation to Lenadoon (suggesting an on the ground command role at a specific event, something that strikes me as a little beneath a brigadier). Apart from anything the Lenadoon stand-ff was in 72 and McMichael was well established as a big dog by then.
I'll leave it up to you as you can make a case from McDonald & Cusack but it does look a bit shaky to me. I would have mentioned this sooner but I've been offline a while. Keresaspa ( talk) 19:25, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Jacqueline de Longwy.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Hi, at Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge we're striving to bring about 10,000 article improvements and creations for the UK and Ireland and inspire others to create more content. In order to achieve this we need diversity of content, in all parts of the UK and Ireland on all topics. Eventually a regional contest will be held for all parts of the British Isles, like they were for Wales and the Wedt Country. We currently have just over 1900 articles and need contributors! If you think you'd be interested in collaborating on this and helping reach the target quicker, please sign up and begin listing your entries there as soon as possible! Thanks.♦ -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:41, 28 September 2016 (UTC)
Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa? Lo dicono a Signa. 09:11, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

I see you are a venerable wikipedian, extremely experienced wih 88,168 edits, and a special interest in Irish history, whereas I have about a tenth of this experience, am a 2nd-language speaker, and new in Ireland. I hope you agree with at least the general trend of the edits that I have made on "your" article. I think it is you who added Joan's place of birth: Desmond Castle (Kinsale); very nice and useful information. One of my aims is to improve the verifiability of the article. I hoped to come per chance across the place where you found the information about her birth place, but I have not. It might be in one of the sources you cited that I could not access (e.g. Kirwan), or can only be read in Google Books preview or snippet view. However, I find it a bit odd as birthplace of a noble Desmond FitzGerald. I have the impression that her parents lived most of the time at Askeaton Castle, or perhaps at Lismore Castle. Could you please direct me to where to find the needed citation? With many thanks and best regards, Johannes Schade ( talk) 11:20, 8 May 2022 (UTC) ArbCom 2022 Elections voter messageHello!
