Emma/Aelfgifu
editHi -- I noticed your edit to Image:Cnut and Emma Minster Register.jpg, so I went and checked the source I scanned it from. What it says is "King Cnut and Queen Emma (called by the English Aelfgyfu)". I am not an expert on Cnut, so I don't know if this has support elsewhere, but the source (James Campbell's "The Anglo-Saxons") is well respected. I'm going to go ahead and change it back, but I must admit I'm baffled. I also found this web page, which seems pretty authoritative as it's the British Library; it says effectively the reverse -- "King Cnut and Queen Aelfgifu (also called Emma)". If you know what's going on better than I do, please feel free to clarify again. Thanks. Mike Christie (talk) 03:02, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Rough Stone Rolling
editI noticed that you added a quote from Richard Bushman concerning his penchant for allowing Joseph Smith's stories. Where did you get this quote? Please cite it. Thanks! ukforever (talk) 20:30, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. The citation was at the end of the reference, and I switched its position to clarify its origin. Salve atque vale.--John Foxe (talk) 00:15, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
