- I've trimmed the addition you made to LiveJournal to tighten the wording. --Christopherlin 20:38, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm, you have lost the idea that other people being able to see that you've posted something that they can't see is, well, a bit dubious in terms of your privacy... Want another go? :) Lovingboth 16:56, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
Sorry about that mixup there. I rollbacked the moment I saw a whole lot of text in the diff being replaced with "Whores the play" instead reading the entire diff. I nearly mistook you for a vandal in the split second! -- Netsnipe (Talk) 16:34, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Start: Battle of Berlin (air)
I have moved the section to Talk:Battle of Berlin (air)#Start of the RAF's 'Battle of Berlin' as it is the main article on the subject. There was a redirect on the talk page to Talk:Bombing of Berlin in World War II (that like me I guess you did not notice). --Philip Baird Shearer 19:07, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Criminal politicians
Hi, given your interest in criminal politicians such as Harman have you considered creating maybe creating and article like this one except for British politicians?: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Australian_politicians_convicted_of_crimes It certainly would be a useful addition to Wikipedia.--Shakehandsman (talk) 00:04, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- Similarly a category of criminal British politicians would really be worth creating, although you could just use the generic worldwide one.--Shakehandsman (talk) 00:13, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- Including Harman in a category of "criminals" based on motoring offenses is inappropriate and in my view a breach of the biographies of living persons policy. Per that policy, given that this is a controversial label, you are not to reinsert it unless and until a consensus to do so is shown. Newyorkbrad (talk) 01:42, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
- Motoring offenses are a subset of criminal offenses, not a disjoint set. 'Causing death by dangerous driving' is a 'driving offense', for example, but can carry a prison sentence. The notability stems from her being the first UK cabinet minister to be convicted of any criminal offense and not resign. It appears that there may be a consensus evolving: adding her to Category:Politicians_convicted_of_crimes. See her talk page.

Thanks for all your contributions to the category, I've made the list fairly comprehensive now. Always appreciate any help improving the articles of those in the category, the Lord Taylor one in particular needs a lot of work.--Shakehandsman (talk) 02:07, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
I have suggested this article for deletion. The tags helped me to discern this may not be notable.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 23:50, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for November 22
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Carl Cushnie, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Department of Trade and Industry (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Take Ichi convoy
In response to your request for talk page support, I suggest you contact User:Snlf1. I am in complete agreement with your conclusions about the relative accuracy of Blair's estimates in comparison to Japanese sources on the subject; but I believe I used something like Google translate to interpret the document. I don't know enough Japanese to effectively counter Nick-D's objections, but I believe Snlf1 may have both the background and interest to join the discussion if he has the time.

- Ah ha, wonderful. Thank you. 22:25, 18 September 2014 (UTC)
