County Londonderry

I've changed your edit back to the correct County Londonderry. There isn't a County Derry, and there never has been. The county is called Londonderry and the city Derry. Also I've added back in the country which you removed for some reason. Ben W Bell talk 17:30, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Again I've corrected your edit. See WP:IMOS and you will see that on Wikipedia is it called County Londonderry. This is due to the fact that this is what the county was named. Before it was County Londonderry it was County Coleraine. It has never been County Derry. The agreed on terminology on Wikipedia is County Londonderry for the county and Derry for the city. Oh and don't change other people's talk comments. Ben W Bell talk 07:52, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

slsk

Hiya. Ive just created a new (and better, imo) userbox for soulseek and i thought is share it. you can look at it here. this new box allows you to share your soulseek username in the box itself. also, it adds your userpage to a category called "soulseek users". if you dont like the box but you want to be in the catergory just add [[Category: Soulseek users]]. anyhoo, just thought id let you know. -(chubbstar)^{— talk | contrib | 06:18, 27 July 2006 (UTC)}[reply]

Minnesota

Yo. You deleted my edit of "Wurzburg" by removing the "Minnesota" part I put in. While one does want everything to be the same, nobody knows where "Faribault" (or whatever it was) actually is. While I understand why one would avoid putting "Washington" or "New York" after "Seattle" or "New York", respectively, I think there is very good reason to put "Minnesota" in after "Faribault". I don't know if Wikipedia has any policy regarding subnational entities for town-twinning entries, but...maybe there should be one. Hell, on the "Faribault" page, perhaps "Würzburg" should be listed with "Bavaria" afterwards.

Still. I think I might start a discussion of this somewhere. Nobody knows where "Faribault" is.

Cool, I started a discussion.

Ruairí, you made it all the same by making it worse. If you want to improve the other entries, do so. If there's more than one city in a country with a certain name, it is proper to include state/province/etc info to clarify location. Sparkhead 12:03, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Stop Removing "United States"

You're degrading the quality of the entries, and in direct conflict with your statement, "this is the internet, not the USA". If it were USA-centric, there would be no need to say ", USA" after a state name. But it isn't. So stop removing that text, and stop removing states from entries as well. "Rochester, USA" is ambiguous. "Rochester, NY, USA" is not. Sparkhead 15:18, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Dearest ring

The article Dearest ring has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Appears to only rely on one or two sources, checked and I couldn't find anything else

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
