Adding the Coat of Arms to this page
I added the coat of arms to this page because it seemed right to do so. Besides, Scotland's page has its coat of arms right next to its country flag, so I just did the same for the England page. RicLightning (talk) 23:50, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
- I may be mistaken, but I thought this had been discussed before and the consensus was not to have the coat of arms if it doesn't represent solely England. Tony Holkham (Talk) 23:54, 24 March 2025 (UTC)
- That is correct...there is no present Royal Coat of Arms of England..... what is being displayed here is the UK coat of arms. Moxy🍁 23:57, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 26 April 2025
Template:Edit extended-protected Add an image for the Romans in England under history > ancient history. 2A0A:EF40:E9D:A701:644D:E2A5:4EB4:DAAB (talk) 16:53, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- File:X mark.svg Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the Template:Tlx template. Remsense ‥ 论 17:10, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- {{done}} it seemed like a good idea to me, but happy to go with consensus, if different. Tony Holkham (Talk) 17:17, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- I mainly intended for this to start a discussion about what image specifically should be added. Remsense ‥ 论 17:18, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- OK, no probs. Tony Holkham (Talk) 17:20, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Good job! I would just suggested adding links to Housesteads Roman fort in the caption. :) 2A0A:EF40:E9D:A701:644D:E2A5:4EB4:DAAB (talk) 19:39, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- I think the Roman Baths at Bath might be a better image to use, like this one here, on second thoughts. It's probably the most known Roman site in the British Isles. 2A0A:EF40:E9D:A701:644D:E2A5:4EB4:DAAB (talk) 23:14, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Well I might as well throw in Vindolanda as a choice? Knitsey (talk) 23:25, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Good call! Maybe we could have a vote for everyone to pick from? 2A0A:EF40:E9D:A701:644D:E2A5:4EB4:DAAB (talk) 23:48, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- The reason I think Vindolanda as a choice is the social history of ordinary Romans that have been uncovered. See Vindolanda tablets, 1,700 tablets have been found so far. Plus there is the sex toy they found which isn't always what you expect to uncover at a dig! Knitsey (talk) 00:03, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- I very much agree. Maybe update the image and place it on the left hand side? The section appears a little cluttered on desktop. 2A0A:EF40:E9D:A701:41C7:7D89:C5B7:E7D4 (talk) 11:19, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- Or maybe a picture of Hadrian's Wall itself? 90.248.228.224 (talk) 14:34, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- Hadrians wall would be a good choice. The suggestions is great, I'm not sure how you would word an RfC (if needed) for this. Knitsey (talk) 16:43, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- Would there be a need for a RfC? Just be bold. Tony Holkham (Talk) 19:33, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 12 May 2025
Template:Edit extended-protected As of May 12, 2025, an image related to sports was removed for violating Wikipedia standards. I kindly request that the image, which was positioned at the beginning of the sports section, be substituted with this image depicting a cricket match in England, at a traditional cricket club. Cricket is among the most popular sports in England and has its origins in the country.

- File:X mark.svg Not done: I find it unnecessary to add a new image as there are already two in the sports section, which is quite enough given its length. Adding more pictures would only clutter the layout. Day Creature (talk) 03:00, 13 May 2025 (UTC)
