Hertslet maps

[edit]

Hi there, Bird244. I've just seen your question at the Teahouse about the Magocsi atlas - its maps are clearly protected by copyright. But if you're interested in boundary changes from a bit earlier, I could make maps from Edward Hertslet's atlas available on Commons, for you to use in articles. It was published in 1874, and covers the period 1814-1871, Europe only. Maproom (talk) 09:40, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

i would appreciate it if you could do so. it could prove useful Bird244 (talk) 23:40, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 50% Rule, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Guardian. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Information icon Before adding a category to an article, please make sure that the subject of the article really belongs in the category that you specified according to Wikipedia's categorization guidelines. The category being added must already exist, and must be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you.

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at House of Glücksburg. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

What part of "These titles are part of being "King of Denmark", not separate offices." do you not understand? Celia Homeford (talk) 11:52, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
