Ah. Once again, I have a nice, clean talk page. No comments. No headers. No plaintive requests from vandals. Looks as lovely as newly-fallen snow. I don't suppose it will last either. ~Mackensen, the 8th of December, 2004


Spammers: I would like for this page to stay reasonably clean. If you have business with me, feel free to leave a comment, else please move on. Please ignore the man in the corner with the pump-action shotgun.

I'm pretty sure he's User:PolishPoliticians, see more at User_talk:Jimbo_Wales

You removed [3] (link will break with next edit) "(extinct 1425)" from the above - why? It went extinct after the 9th Countess, and then her four sons (in unrecorded and indeterminate order) died...

Sir Alan Stuart, the son of the 9th Countess of Lennox, is the father of the "first" Earl of Lennox (presumably of the second creation). But the 1st Earl of Lennox was illegitimate, so he could not have inherited the Countess's dignity directly. I would conclude, then, that the title became extinct upon Lady Lennox's death in 1459. -- Emsworth 00:38, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Image copyrights

Thanks for uploading Image:Palmerston.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, Edwin Stearns | Talk 22:02, 14 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Peers by Decade

I don't think it's really necessary to end those peers by year charts with Template:end box. Instead, just stick a |} on the end - it's more better, methinks :) ugen64 04:51, 15 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Lord Granville Somerset

Re. moving this page to Granville Charles Henry Somerset: It just seemed to me more logical - after all, "Lord" isn't a title in the same way as a peerage, and one doesn't title articles "Mr W.E. Gladstone", does one? After you raised the question I tried to find whether a naming convention had been laid down for Dukes' and Marquesses' sons, but in vain - is there one? Of course, please feel free to move it back if I'm going against accepted practice. Donald (Opera hat), 17.28 15th December 2004 (GMT)


Image tag

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status?

You can use {{gfdl}} if you wish to release your own work under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{PD-self}} if you wish to release your own work to the public domain, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use of someone else's work, and so on. Click here for a list of the various tags.

If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the image from, and I'll tag it for you. (And if you know exactly what this means and are really tired of the constant reminders, please excuse me. They will stop once the tagging project is complete.) Thanks so much. Denni 03:47, 2004 Dec 16 (UTC)

P.S. You can help tag other images at Wikipedia:Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

P.P.S. - You can put the shotgun down. This is not spam. I actually stopped at your userpage with the express intent of delivering this request.  :) D~
