Mantles of British orders

Thanks very much for your kind comments - I'm glad my photographs were appreciated. I was fortunate enough to go on a short tour of one of Ede & Ravenscroft's main warehouses yesterday (the visit was organised by a society I'm a member of): a particular highlight was a small display of various interesting examples of academic and ceremonial dress, including the mantles. -- Nicholas Jackson (talk) 20:05, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

C, PoW

Is it just me, or do you get the impression that something is afoot at Charles, Prince of Wales? Of course, it's only confined to the talk page for now; but, I don't have a particularly good feeling about this. Maybe I just need some ~~herbal tea~~ valium. ;) --Miesianiacal (talk) 18:25, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Republic of Ireland flag in Northern Ireland article

Hello,

Please could you take a look at my edit here. I feel this is a reasonable compromise edit, but is being reverted without proper discussion here.

Harriet Harman

Hey, Cameron, long time no see. I need some help at Talk:Harriet Harman#Harriet Harperson. I'm not asking you to agree with my position there, but merely to provide a fresh pair of eyes. The debate has gotten long, so it may be easier to start by reading the second half of the section that follows that one, called "Serious matter". Based on the other editor's contribution in those places and at my talk page, I am starting to have trouble assuming good faith. Whenever that happens, I try mightily to get someone else to step in with a fresh perspective before I let my temper get the best of me. Please Help! -Rrius (talk) 02:12, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom GA review

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 30 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.

Could you lock the article on King Richard the Lionheart to unregistered users or ban 203.45.21.183.

New Pages and New Users

I've recently been doing some thinking (and a great deal of consultation with Philippe and James at the WMF's community department) on how to keep new users around and participating, particularly in light of Sue's March update. One of the things we'd like to test is whether the reception they get when they make their first article is key. In a lot of cases, people don't stay around; their article is deleted and that's that. By the time any contact is made, in other words, it's often too late.

What we're thinking of doing is running a project to gather data on if this occurs, how often it occurs, and so on, and in the mean time try to save as many pages (and new contributors) as possible. Basically, involved users would go through the deletion logs and through Special:NewPages looking for new articles which are at risk of being deleted, but could have something made of them - in other words, non-notable pages that are potentially notable, or spammy pages that could be rewritten in more neutral language. This would be entirely based on the judgment of the user reviewing pages - no finnicky CSD standards. These pages would be incubated instead of deleted, and the creator contacted and shepherded through how to turn the article into something useful. If they respond and it goes well, we have a decent article and maybe a new long-term editor. If they don't respond, the draft can be deleted after a certain period of time.

I know this isn't necessarily your standard fare, but with your welcoming work I thought it might be up your alley. If you're interested, read Wikipedia:Wiki Guides/New pages, sign up and get involved; questions can be dropped on the talkpage or directed at me. Thanks, Ironholds (talk) 21:09, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MOTDs (This space for rent)

You may have noticed over the past few days that the MOTD that you link to on your user page has simply displayed a red link. This is due to the fact that not enough people are reviewing pending MOTDs here. Please help us keep the MOTD template alive and simply go and review a few of the MOTDs in the list. That way we can have a real MOTD in the future rather than re-using (This space for rent). Any help would be appreciated! ·Add§hore· ^{Talk To Me!} 14:09, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

... for your kind email; I'm still receiving clerks-l emails for some reason, but since Kev said he unsubscribed me (at my request) I may not be able to send them. I was surprised by Joe's response; no "parting shot" was intended, but it confirmed my belief that ArbCom has become hazardous to my health .
