Accensi

[edit]

Firstly, I wanted to congratulate you on writing the hastati, principes, triarii, and velites articles. That is a lot of work, and they are important articles to have, as they outline Roman legion structure in the pre-Marian Republic. I was reading the triarii article and followed links to the roarii and accensi articles. I saw that on the accensi article the singular of "accensi" was listed as triarius, which is the singular of triarii. I changed it to accensus and then looked through the edit history to see who made that particular edit and it turned out to be you. Since it was in September, you probably don't remember, but I was curious whether that was an accident or if you intended to have that information in the article.

Thanks! I have no idea why I made that edit. I must have copy and pasted something wrong. Anyway thanks for fixing it lol.--Pattont/c 22:46, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia 2

[edit]

This arbitration case has been closed and the final decision is available at the link above.

  • All editors on Macedonia-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions and Geopolitical ethnic and religious conflicts noticeboard (WP:ECCN), especially since there are significant problems in reaching consensus.
  • All articles related to Macedonia (defined as any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to Macedonia, Macedonia nationalism, Greece related articles that mention Macedonia, and other articles in which how Macedonia will be referred to is an issue) fall under 1RR whenever the dispute over naming is concerned. Editors enforcing a case where a binding Stalemate resolution has been found are exempt from 1RR.
  • The following users have been banned from Wikipedia : Avg (talk · contribs)one year, ΚΕΚΡΩΨ (talk · contribs)one year, and Reaper7 (talk · contribs)six months .
  • The following users have been topic-banned from Macedonia-related articles and their talk pages, as defined in All related articles under 1RR: Avg (talk · contribs)indefinitely, ΚΕΚΡΩΨ (talk · contribs)indefinitely, Reaper7 (talk · contribs)one year and, SQRT5P1D2 (talk · contribs)one year.
  • The Committee takes note that ChrisO (talk · contribs) has resigned his administrator status while this case was pending, but also notes that he is desysopped as a result of the above case. ChrisO may obtain the tools back via the usual means or by request to the Arbitration Committee.
  • Future Perfect at Sunrise (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) is strongly admonished for displaying a long pattern of incivil, rude, offensive, and insulting behavior towards other editors and failure to address the community's concerns in this regard. Because of this Future Perfect at Sunrise is subject to an editing restriction for one year, and is desysopped for three months as a consequence of poor user conduct and misuse of administrative tools. After three months, his administrator access will be automatically restored.
  • Single-purpose accounts are strongly advised to edit in accordance with WP:SPA and other Wikipedia policies. Diversifying one's topics of interest is also encouraged.
  • Abuse filter 119, as currently configured, logs all changes involving the word "Macedonia" but does not block any edits. The community is strongly advised to consider adding a new abuse filter criterion; any instances of changing the word "Macedonia" to "FYROM" (the five-letter acronym, not the full phrase) shall be prevented.
  • Within seven days of the closure of this case, a discussion is to be opened to consider the preferred current and historical names for the four entities known as Macedonia. The discussion will end one month after it is opened.

Matilda tank

[edit]

Kindly consult some references on British tank nomenclature before changing article names; you may find after reading the discussion page that you are mistaken about the name of this tank. Thanks very much. DMorpheus (talk) 14:25, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for moving the page DMorpheus (talk) 18:13, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Is there some reason you re-named the page without waiting for consensus? The name you used was suggested by one editor, but other suggestions were out there. Regards, DMorpheus (talk) 19:22, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
