No numbers on Prime Ministers
[edit]Hi, Please don't bother to number the British Prime Ministers' infoboxes, as you have on Gordon brown and Tony Blair, - see the discussion pages in Blair and Brown - as they are not normally known by their numeric progression in the same way that US Presidents, for example, are. Many thanks, Lynbarn 23:27, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
I've just noticed that thanks, I have removed my edit on the Tony Blair page as 51st PM. Burto88 23:32, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- No problem - I didn't want you to work through 50-odd pages, only to have them all reverted! Lynbarn 00:01, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
It would have been quite a daunting task, although I did consider it for a moment haha. Burto88 00:04, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
If you've no idea who I am, you are receiving this message because of your British Empire UBX! If you are a regular editor to articles related to the British Empire please sign up (no pesky newsletters!) to the project and help better organise and improve articles within our scope! Thanks --Cameron (T|C) 21:01, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom GA review
[edit]A review to see if Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom meets Wikipedia:Good article criteria has started, and has been put on hold. Suggestions for improvement are at Talk:Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom/GA2, and are mainly to do with coverage and neutrality, and building the lead section. Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom is one of our most high profile and popular articles, attracting an average of over 11,000 readers every day. You have made more than 20 edits to the article, and so you might be interested in helping to make the improvements needed to get it listed as a Good Article.

Invitation
[edit]Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:46, 23 November 2015 (UTC)
