Your editing has been raised at WP:TER. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 06:06, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

WP:TER was closed as not meriting a separate page, and the complaint was moved to WP:AE. I've closed out the report at WP:AE. It would be appropriate to continue discussing the sourcing issue on the article's talk page, if anyone still has concerns. GRBerry 14:33, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

Ulster Scots

"Ulster Scots is a dialect of Scots spoken in some parts of Northern Ireland."http://en.wikipedia.org/Languages_of_Ireland#Ulster_Scots Do you agree with the above statement?Eog1916 (talk) 18:04, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, but thats no reason to add verbosity to the title of that section. It doesn't say "The Ulster Scots language" now does it? There is no reason to change the title of the section.Traditional unionist (talk) 18:05, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Oh dear

Um.. TU, you haven't caught up with past events, have you? Email me. There's some things you oughta know. (Quick version, Alison has turned in her mop and checkuser status, I'll explain more if you want) SirFozzie (talk) 22:21, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

God Save the Queen

Dear Alister is this not the UK Anthem? Northern Ireland most frequently uses "God Save the Queen" at events associated with the British tradition, and the Irish national anthem Amhrán na bhFiann ("The Soldiers' Song") at events associated with the Irish tradition. Additionally, "Londonderry Air" ("Danny Boy") is a popular cross-community anthem.Eog1916 (talk) 22:25, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

RFCU

Sorry, I am moving checkuser cases all around, all should be back in a few minutes, but I fear I lost one of your edits in the process. Can you double check then? Thanks! -- lucasbfr 11:17, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Note

I've blocked you for 100 hours for yesterday's - rather lame - edit-war over Edward Haughey, Baron Ballyedmond. The block is not so much for the 3RR violation itself - a relatively trivial manner - but for the sheer folly of the edit-war. Next time you find yourself making reverts over something that irrelevant, for goodness' sake please go here and get the page protected. Moreschi (talk) 21:36, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Thats utterly excessive and the justification is "lame". Request the template be placed so I can appeal.Traditional unionist (talk) 21:39, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Given your previous 3 blocks for edit-warring, 100 hours is reasonable and I'm a good deal less inclined to be lenient. You know the rules, and also that edit-warring, particularly petty edit-warring, is just not on even if you don't violate 3RR. The "template" is {{Unblock}}, which you need to place yourself. Moreschi (talk) 21:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Nothing over 31 hours.Traditional unionist (talk) 21:50, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Traditional unionist (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

Notes:

• In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
• Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2=It's taken almost 24 hours for an admin to get around to this, after which a curious 100 hours has been deemed appropriate for an instance where I inadvertently broke 3RR. I apologied for my mistake on the report (which I wasn't given the courtesy of being informed of) The dispute in question has now been settled, and the world has moved on. A block may well be justified, but 100 hours is excessive, particularly given the flippant, disrespectful and unbecoming rationale offered by the blocking admin. |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1=It's taken almost 24 hours for an admin to get around to this, after which a curious 100 hours has been deemed appropriate for an instance where I inadvertently broke 3RR. I apologied for my mistake on the report (which I wasn't given the courtesy of being informed of) The dispute in question has now been settled, and the world has moved on. A block may well be justified, but 100 hours is excessive, particularly given the flippant, disrespectful and unbecoming rationale offered by the blocking admin. |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1=It's taken almost 24 hours for an admin to get around to this, after which a curious 100 hours has been deemed appropriate for an instance where I inadvertently broke 3RR.
