Your article name change seems very sensible and less cumbersome. But I see that you have also changed "of" to "in". In fact, it's not in at all, but of the citizens of i.e. anywhere in the world. I suppose it depends what you mean by "in", but I always thought that the previous name was a bit of a misnomer. Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 15:49, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi mate, I noticed you changed a few cup final articles to remove the Welsh flag from Cardiff City. In actual fact, Cardiff City is not registered with the Football Association but with the Football Association of Wales. As such, they represent Wales in the FA Cup, as do Swansea, Wrexham, Newport County, Colwyn Bay and Merthyr Tydfil. Therefore, if Cardiff City or any of the others were to win an English competition, they would only be eligible for Europe via special dispensation. It is therefore necessary to add the Welsh flag to these articles to make it clear that Cardiff and the others are Welsh clubs participating in an English competition only by virtue of competing in the English football league system. – Pee Jay 12:10, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
You've been busy! Just out of interest - and in the absence of any explanatory edit summaries, ahem - what is your reasoning? I can see problems. For example, District of Port Talbot was, so far as I know, never called that by anyone. It was officially called "Borough Council of Afan" (or "Afan Borough Council"), and then "Borough Council of Port Talbot" (or "Port Talbot Borough Council"). I could see the merits of calling the article Port Talbot (district), because it was called Port Talbot and it was a district - but the wording "District of Port Talbot" seems to suggest a formal title which is not one that it ever had. Related arguments apply elsewhere. Ghmyrtle ( talk) 15:15, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Do you have any sources that shed any light on why it is called the West of England Tavern? I know why you think it's relevant to the Monmouthshire (historic)#Ambiguity over Welsh status text, but without any sources commenting on its name and the reasons for it, it seems difficult to justify the inclusion of the image in the article. Perhaps it was because the inn's owners wanted to pay tribute to the port's trading links with foreign parts (?!) Ghmyrtle ( talk) 21:21, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
I deliberately placed the picture next to the section on extending closing pubs on a Sunday to Monmouthshire. I haven't attempted to attribute the name to anything as it is notoriously hard to track down the origin of historic pub names. I imagine in 1838 there was no real "Ambiguity over Welsh status" anyway! Owain ( talk) 08:27, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Just curious about your series of edits ( including this, which removed “elements not specific to Wales”) to infoboxes. Why did you leave the parameters: Monarch; Prime Minister of the United Kingdom; and Legislature (UK Parliament)? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were trying to make a point. Daicaregos ( talk) 12:55, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
You seem to be editing articles on the basis that you think that
Template:Infobox country should not be used for the
countries of the United Kingdom, because they are not sovereign states. If that's the case, it would be probably be better to start a discussion on a central talk page like the one for that template, rather than making bold but somewhat provocative edits on individual articles. In the mean time, I'll revert your edits if it hasn't been done already.
Ghmyrtle (

You are right, it's the use of Template:Infobox country that has caused this mess because editors feel the need to fill in every field. The Regions of France, States of Germany, &c. all have their own infoboxes, so why can't the Parts of the UK? Owain ( talk) 16:06, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:2012 FA Trophy Final.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi Owain, it would be useful if you can explain your edits more fully. Firstly, I cant find a Welsh team in the list of FA Trophy finals before Newport County. Which team did you have in mind ? Secondly you are right the club name derives from the original name and that is covered early in the article. However, this doesn't belong in the Fans section as its a duplication and, with respect, is irrelevant ie very few (especially current fanbase) would even know they were called Newport and Monmouthshire County for the first couple of years of 100 year history.

Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.
Could you take a look at the changes an IP has made to the Wales entries in that article? At first I thought they were broadly acceptable, but now I'm concerned that both the IP and I have got muddled between the traditional counties' "county towns" and the administrative centres of the current authorities - some of which are now included in the list, but not others. It may be best to revert all the IP's changes, if what existed previously was accurate - but I'm not sure it was. Whatever happens, some form of clarification may be needed as to which definition of "counties" are included in the list, and which are excluded. Ghmyrtle ( talk) 18:40, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

A tag has been placed on Flag of Leicestershire requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://britishcountyflags.com/2017/10/19/a-flag-for-leicestershire/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi - I wondered why you had removed the Welsh language version of the name of this building: without an edit summary it is very difficult to understand your thinking. Best wishes. Dormskirk ( talk) 19:54, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
Hello, I don't want to sound rude, but I frankly don't understand the point in inserting the historic county in an item which has little or no relation with administrative issues or, like in this case, with no reason at all to exist (If I remember well, Manchester hasn't been in Lancashire for half a century or more, and the City of Manchester Stadium was built in 2002 so it never was in Lancashire...). -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 23:33, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Can you please stop removing Cumbria from the Westmorland and Furness article. It still exists. Your removing it for no reason and North West England isn't a county but a region which isn't anything to go off of. If this carries on I'll open a discussion about it. Your removing it for no reason and have done a few times. DragonofBatley ( talk) 08:48, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I came across the page List of counties of England and Wales in 1964 by highest point that you created. The page is useful and seems complete, however the grouping of England and Wales together here doesn't seem right and so the page needs to be split into the pages List of counteis by highest point in England and List of counties by highest point in Wales. Obviously, Scotland also has counties with highest points (even if using a different source) so it doesn't really make sense to group England and Wales here.
I thought I would make this suggestion to you first. Would you be happy to go ahead with the split, please?
Thanks for your time and best wishes! Titus Gold ( talk) 01:25, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

The article M4 motorway Usk bridge has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
The subject of the article lacks a preponderance of reliable sources to establish notability. A formerly proposed bridge of the same name has been mentioned in some reliable sources but is unrelated to the subject and should not be taken into account when evaluating notability. Following WP:NBUILDING, this article may be notable but the lack of cultural significance (for example, compare to the Prince of Wales Bridge) diminishes the potential for notability of the article.
