| + | Thanks for contributing to the island country article. I just tossed my flag in there to create an example of the size of the flag one should use ... as I just know somebody will place a honking huge flag in there at some point in time. ;) [[User:Mikitivity|Mikitivity]] 17:13, 15 April 2007 (GMT) |

| − | ==On the title of King== | + | == Thank you. == |
| | | | |
| − | In case you haven't noticed, the article was a quick stub pending an other writer's(''' ''Edited in:''' [[User:Owain|Owain]]'s to be precise'') contribution, which has arrived shortly. ''' ''Edited in:'' ''' ''Hence my writing that "King is the usual title of a sovereign monarch." A very brief and short stub to specify that this article was about the title of King, as it should be. And you went on and added "male" commenting "(youd never call a female monarch "the king"). Great job on linguistics show off.''
| + | Thanks for fixing the flag link for NAztec. |
| − | | + | |
| − | The [[King]] article was, indeed, occupied by an article on a [[King_(Malesia)|province of a nation]], which I personally moved and then even followed back to the nation's page and corrected the link to the new article.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | It is funny, I remember having received a message from a sysop on me using ''Plague'' as name of an article, with the sysop clearly recommending a renaming. It would have appeared I was depriving other nations from having the same privilege (even if, to date, no article on Plague exists). And some people go ahead and simply write a provincial article under ''King'' and the sysops just don't care. Well, they do, but they do so belatedly only to show off their linguistic skills.

| − | * Oh, and good job on moving [[King_(Malesia)]] to [[King_(Province)]] '''and''' leaving the former as a redirect article. What's the point when you can simply delete the former, then go to [[Malesia]] and correct the linking? With love, [[User:Jester|Jester]] 16:05, 5 March 2006 (GMT)

| − | *Well, first of all, if you ask questions related to complaints on your talk page, then post them on your talk page. You are a sysop, you should not go about spamming other pages. Well, wait, considering you are breeding redirect pages, I take my words back. Anyway, I have already edited in some more information into my rant. Hope they help to understand. With love, [[User:Jester|Jester]] 17:10, 5 March 2006 (GMT)
| + | |
| − | **It is also my opinion that somebody who does not know that Poland is written with a capital letter should not show off linguistic skills. Furthermore, if you had issues with the veracity of the now defunct stub, you were welcome to write maybe a bit more than ''one single word''. Or you could have actually moved the provincial article before I spotted it and written your own stub to replace it. Thank you for your attention. [[User:Jester|Jester]] 17:10, 5 March 2006 (GMT)
| + | |
| − | ===And apologies for a silly rant===
| + | |
| − | Well, thinking it all over, yes, your actions are not logical and can be qualified as silly, but so is my rant. Was greatly on the nerves today and it happens to me that I erupt into a fireball :P And your rather ill-placed edit, its quality and the comment attached to it served as a detonator.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | For that, I apologise, however, I want still wish to issue a couple recommendations:
| + | |
| − | * delete one of those provincial articles and then make sure the nation's article still links to the appropriate one. Spawning redirect pages for such a little article is, IMHO, not justified.
| + | |
| − | * it is a universal truth that a King is a male, except in [[Weyr]] where they are a Kingdom republic with a female High King. Writing "male monarch" for King is just like writing "female president" for Susanna. ''The female President of Whateveristan is called Susanna.'' <- Just as an example.
| + | |
| − | * correct poland to Poland in your user page. And the other typos, too, because they look quite silly in a sysop's user page ;)

| − | == Re:Deletion of [[Main page]] ==
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I reverted your deletion of [[Main page]]. I believe the reason the page was created was to facilitate navigation from [[Talk:Main page]] to [[Main Page]], as [[Talk:Main Page]] is a redirect to [[Talk:Main page]], but [[Main page]] was not a redirect before.

| − | | + | |
| − | I don't mind your edit in the [[Cute Bunny Burger Corporation|CBBC]] article, but it doesn't make much sense. It isn't a "claim" by Ariddians; it's a fact stated by CBBC themselves (in forum threads). What do you think their burgers are made from? [[User:Aridd|Aridd]] 16:04, 6 July 2006 (GMT)

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | No, I'm trying to point out the inherent problem in "major" and "minor". If you can just edit yourself in who's going to decide what's major and what's minor - which surely depends on outside perception? How major or minor a currency then depends on if the person wants to participate in this thing or not, and if so, how much work they're going to put into the article. It's a big NationStates world and many countries will never even RP with each other. This kind of language just is completely arbitrary. --[[User:Kelssek|Kelssek]] 02:17, 16 November 2006 (GMT)
