[edit] Tertia Aemilia

I wrote an article on Aemilia Paulla, wife of Scipio Africanus. You wrote an article on Cornelia Africana with some nice pictures. I am looking for pictures like this I could add to my article or a possible new article on Cornelia Major. Do you know of any such pictures that might work on these articles? I'll watch for your answer here. --Doug talk 14:40, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

  • Dont you have nothing better to do? Like... writting articles??? muriel@pt 14:22, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Muriel, the page you listed won't let me save the text. If you could, please post this to that page.


The correct title for Eugenie is "Princess Eugenie of York", never Eugenie, Princess of York. The latter would be correct only for a divorced wife of a 'Prince of York'.

The children of royal peers are always titled Prince/ss [name] of title. Prince William's title is Prince William of Wales, as confirmed in the court circular and by Buckingham Palace and Clarence House.

Thus, before becoming queen, Queen Victoria was Princess Victorian Alexandrina of Kent. The current queen before her father became king was Princess Elizabeth of York. The current Prince of Wales before his mother became queen was given the courtesy title Prince Charles of Edinburgh by King George VI. That is also why the wife of Prince Michael of Kent is Princess Michael of Kent, never ever Michael, Princess of Kent. She would be Michael, Princess of Kent if she and her husband divorced, though she might with the Queen's permission use her own name instead of 'Michael'.

Happy birthday

Hello, Muriel! Hopefully I've got in first this time to wish you a very happy birthday. I hope life is treating you well in Portugal or wherever you are now, and wish you many happy returns for many years to come.

[edit] British monarchs' family tree

Hello, Muriel. Just letting you know of 'two' errors on the 'family tree' map (under Victoria & descendants). 1- Elizabeth II succeeded the throne in 1952 (was crowned in 1953); 2- Victoria, princess royal married Frederick III of Germany (not his father, William I). Cheers. GoodDay 22:11, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Also, 'Henry Stuart, Prince of Wales' was born in 1594 & some of the 'accession dates' are mistakenly 'coronation dates'. GoodDay 22:15, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of List of young people in history

List of young people in history, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that List of young people in history satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of young people in history and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of List of young people in history during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. J-stan TalkContribs 02:48, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: The young people

I have nothing against you, or for that matter anyone on the project. I saw a list of indiscriminate info, and thought it didn't belong on Wikipedia. I think this isn't a good reason to leave, but I respect your right to leave. Please don't take the deletion of your page personally. J-ſtan!TalkContribs 23:29, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, in that case, welcome back! Second of all, only the list was deleted. The information is still on Wikipedia, just not collected together in that way. If you wanted to stop the deletion, you should have voiced your opinion. J-ſtan!TalkContribs 02:37, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Question

If I understand your question correctly, the answer is yes. Image copyright templates can be removed or changed by any editor, including the uploader. Accurate tags should not be removed, of course. If you want me to look at any particular image, I'd be happy to do so. Good luck! -- But|seriously|folks  01:28, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

You could instead tag them with {{Db-author}}, and they would probably get deleted, as long as they're not obviously useful. I looked at your upload log, though, and there's only one image, and it's not a family tree. Were they uploaded under a different ID, or have they been moved to commons maybe? -- But|seriously|folks  12:10, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
OK, I see them in your contribs. Interesting question. The charts are definitely useful but have some major deficiencies: They are in a format that cannot be easily edited, they lack citations and may include OR and they contain erroneous information. We're not allowed to withdraw licenses, especially where others have uploaded modified versions. I recommend that you nominate them for deletion (all in one nom), explain that you are the original creator and set forth the deficiencies. I would certainly support deletion under the circumstances. Please let me know what you think of this idea. -- But|seriously|folks  05:57, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Family trees

What font did you use to do the family tree? And what font size? I am creating a huge project linking the royal families of Europe based on your diagrams. Also what are your sources? User talk:thelivinglegend —Preceding comment was added at 17:07, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Image:NunoAlvaresPereira.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:NunoAlvaresPereira.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

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 (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. Sdrtirs (talk) 01:34, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
