- I've alerted pgk about this request. The block is a checkuser block, so it may be impossible to unblock you without allowing a problematic user to continue destructive behavior. Pgk will know better what to do. Mangojuicetalk 17:06, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- I wouldn't advise unblocking or even changing to anon only. The history of this address includes numerous checkuser blocks, it was one used by a certain vandal (or vandals) engaged in vandalism, pagemove vandalism, multiple sockpuppets etc. --pgk 17:52, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- I've set it to a 1 year anon only, nocreate. I'll e-mail you my reasoning for this in a moment, pgk. --Michael Billington (talk) 11:35, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Economy of the European Union
editI thought about adding a list of NUTS-3 regions mind you, but it would be as equally misleading as the list of NUTS-2 regions, since it basically compares apples and pears again. In London NUTS-3 are very small, enconpassing a few neighbourhoods, whereas elsewhere in Europe NUTS-3 are usually whole cities, and yet elsewhere in Europe NUTS-3 are whole provinces (in Spain, the entire province of Barcelona is a NUTS-3, the entire province of Madrid is also a NUTS-3!). So in the case of London they get NUTS-3 with GDP per capita above 100,000 euros per capita (!!) by taking small chunks of Westminster or the City. It is beyond me how Eurostat can compile such poorly comparable data. So a NUTS-3 list wouldn't do either. I thought it best to put the two cities with the highest GDP per capita in the European Union as a caveat at the beginning of the NUTS-2 list so as not to leave readers with the misleading impression that London is somehow the richest city in the EU. In fact, data show that Frankfurt, Inner London, and Paris are the three richest inner cities in the EU, with very similar GDP per capita. Other cities such as Brussels (53,381 euros per capita), Munich (49,249 euros per capita), Hamburg (41,972 euros per capita) or Vienna (38,632 euros per capita) rank much below.

- As a rule, no, it is not permissible to post lyrics on Wikipedia unless they are old enough to be in the public domain (which, as a rule, is before 1923). You might want to read WP:LYRICS which gives guidelines for poetry and lyrics, that may clear up any further questions you have on the topic. — Coren (talk) 04:31, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
I vow to thee my country
editThank you for your message. Fair enough if you believe the section about the third verse to be POV, then edit it and make it NPOV. But what you did, simply removing all mention of it, is not how to edit out a POV section. Which is why your edit was reverted. I should point out to you that wikipedia is not censored. See WP:NOTCENSORED. I have edited out the two lines that were written poorly. The third verse though if it is sourced should stay. Also your first edit, which was quite a major edit you gave no edit summary (as per wikipedia guidelines) to explain why you were removing so much content. ♦Tangerines♦·Talk 18:55, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of House of Montagu
editA tag has been placed on House of Montagu requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Booglamay (talk) 17:30, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
- As reviewing administrator, I think the article is almost certainly just a start, so I declined to delete it quite so soon. But please add some content , and , I'd advise you to add this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion.DGG (talk) 18:42, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
Category:House of Montagu?

- I'm very sorry, but what do you think about deleting of your category? --Worobiew (talk) 18:16, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Please, be attentive: there is this one already. Thank you. --Worobiew (talk) 10:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
editHi,
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!
Time for resolution
editHiya. For several months now, the article naming for 18th Century British royals has been ever-which-where — all over the shop. In an attempt to solve this, I have prepared a page for discussion: here. Please, please, please come and discuss, even contribute to the Poll. Cheers! DBD 15:38, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
