UK, Britain, and England

For all of you out there you obviously don't know the difference between these three. The United Kingdom is the whole British Empire, it at one point included the U.S.A. and Canada but those are never referred to a Britain. Britain Only contains Scotland, Wales and England. It would be a major geographic mistake to call Northern Ireland British. It would be like calling an Australian Aborigine British, because he was in a British dominated area, It's just plain wrong.

You are confused, see Terminology of the British Isles. - David Biddulph (talk) 17:05, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I may have been confused, and thank you for the link it was helpful. The link but the link does support my claim to the UK edit. As I know that Alan Campbell was bourn and raised in northern Ireland, which is UK not Great Britain. As there is a resonable dispute I will wait to re correct it. And Sorry for the bit of an agrivated tone in the previous statment Jonathon (talk) 17:25, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
