Declaration of Independence
editWhat is the basis of your edits about the Declaration of Independence and Josiah Bartlett? The Declaration was not ratified on July 2nd (the Lee Resolution was). And it was not signed on the 4th. It was adopted on the 4th, and then a handwritten copy was created later which was signed by the delegates. --JW1805 (Talk) 22:57, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
You are mistaken. According to World Book (2001 CD version):
- "On July 2, the Congress approved the Lee resolution. The delegates then began to debate Jefferson's draft. A few passages, including one condemning King George for encouraging the slave trade, were removed. Most other changes dealt with style. On July 4, the Congress adopted the final draft of the Declaration of Independence.
- The Declaration was signed by John Hancock as president of the Second Continental Congress and by Charles Thomson, the Congress's secretary. It was promptly printed and read to a large crowd in the State House yard on July 8. On July 19, the Congress ordered the Declaration to be engrossed (written in stylish script) on parchment. It also ordered that all its members sign the engrossed copy. Eventually, 56 members signed. "
- Adams was talking about the Lee Resolution which said "Resolved, That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States..." This is different from the Declaration of Independence which was a longer document written by Jefferson. --JW1805 (Talk) 03:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
Hi I've just marked this page for proposed deletion as it isn't cited and I cannot find any mention of him/her in the new testament. If you can cite the source you got this from please go there and remove the prod. Regards -- Shimirel (Talk) 19:32, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
- Do you wish to remove the prop then? if your sure it is out their ill leave it alone perhaps if you said on the page that its an obscure footnote in an English translation of the Catholic New Testament? Given what you have said I wouldn't put it up for deletion again if you did decide to remove it. Regards -- Shimirel (Talk) 22:38, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
I put it up for deletion, as unverified, and as far as I can tell, unverifiable. Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fool (The Fallen Angel). If you can't say more than there being an obscure footnote that you can't find again, that's not enough. -GTBacchus(talk) 20:22, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

editYou voted for Caribbean Sea, this week's Collaboration of the week. Please come and help it become a featured-standard article. -Scottwiki 03:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Please do not remove content from articles without explanation.
editPlease refrain from removing content from Wikipedia, as you did to NCIS (TV series). It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. --Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 03:25, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
My apologies. You did not remove content. However, you did inapropriately move Agent Gibbs' listing to a section in which it most certainly does not belong.--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 03:37, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
- I don't see my mistake in editing the article. Agent Gibbs left the show in the season finale after all.
YankeeDoodle14 (Migrated from User talk:Oni Ookami Alfador)
- This has happened before to a point. My actions were definitely overzealous, but at the same time, he should probably be left for now as he has left NCIS but has not officially left the show. Technically he is still current as he is in the most recent episodes. Until it is clearer that he is not going to return in the next season it would be best to simple make note in his description, but to leave him in the current section.--Oni Ookami AlfadorTalk|@ 02:53, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
List of Roman legions
editWould you kindly explain your edits to List of Roman legions?--Panairjdde 20:54, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Legio X
editI moved Legio X article to Legio X Fretensis. For now Legio X is a redirect to the latter article, as result of the move. Add the informations about Caesar's legion to Tenth Legion.--Panairjdde 17:04, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- What are the proofs Dando-Collis uses to support that Legio X Fretensis did originate from Legio X, while Legio X Gemina was not?--Panairjdde 21:24, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- First of all, thank you for accepting the compromise, and then going against it. Then, what are you disputing about Legio X Fretensis??? Answer here or on the Legio talk page.--Panairjdde 22:08, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
- Whoops, dorry, clicked on the wrong link. Meant to put it on the Gemina page. Sorry. Now, why have you gone against our comprimise and ignored the deal to have seperate the three legions known as the Tenth? --YankeeDoodle14 01:46, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
- Are you serious? Who wrote Legio X page? There is a clear reference to three legions there.--Panairjdde 09:30, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, what about those articles? If you are going to ignore them, remove the disputed tags. If not, solve the problem.--Panairjdde 13:17, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

- That's okay. I saw you mention you were going to split it up like the two parks, but haven't seen a change yet. If you need help, just let me know.--Farquaadhnchmn(Dungeon) 21:22, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
Dando-Collins
editWelcome back.
First, D-C is a novelist, and this should be clearly stated in the article, otherwise the reader has no way to weight his claims. Second, you said he discovered new things about this legion, among which its lineage, but you are stil failing to provide references for them.

editThe Star-Spangled Banner
editThanks for your catch of my goof on The Star-Spangled Banner. I normally check the history when I revert vandalism so as not leave earlier vandal edits in place. I'm not quite sure quite what went wrong there. Flowerpotman 23:48, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to George Washington (inventor), you will be blocked from editing. Lakers 22:34, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Abraham Lincoln assassination GA Sweeps Review: On Hold
editAs part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I have reviewed Abraham Lincoln assassination and believe the article currently meets the majority of the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. I'm specifically going over all of the "World History-Americas" articles. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed, and I'll leave the article on hold for seven days for them to be fixed. I have left this message on your talk page since you have significantly edited the article. Please consider helping address the several points that I listed on the talk page of the article, which shouldn't take too long to fix. I have also left messages on the talk pages for other editors and a few related WikiProjects to spread the workload around some. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. --Nehrams2020 (talk) 21:43, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
