Talk:Vanlandi

message: I changed the link to Lapland attached to the name "Finland" to be a link to Finland. Finland is mentioned two times in Ynglingasaga. Whether the saga from these parts is based on real-life events or entirely fictional, can be debated, but based on  saga's internal chronologies the events around Vanlande would have roughly happened in the early 3rd century. At that time, there was a strong "Swedish" population on the coasts of later Finland Proper that had apparently arrived there from Gotland. Interesting is that the medieval coastal borders of Finland Proper are almost exactly the same as the area on which these settlements were. Another mention of Finland in Ynglingasaga, based on its internal chronologies again, dates to the late 4th century, when King Agne was said to have heavily raided Finland. Again, that is roughly the same period of time when the "Swedish" settlements in Finland disintegrated and the population merged together with the original proto-Finnish speaking population, that then gradually evolved to what Finns are today. This is all speculative, but IMO both records of Finland in Ynglingasaga may be based on interaction with Germanic nobles living in Finland. --Drieakko 11:06, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: IMHO, we should not take the ethnic labels that seriously, but stick to linguistic criteria when in doubt. What are Goths and Jutes in Ynglinga saga are Danes and Götar in Historia Norwegiae.--Berig 11:12, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: True. Just noting that the events around "Finnland" in the saga and the archaeological reality in Finland Proper together form a strong reason to keep the association with Finland in place. --Drieakko 11:25, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I have restored the judges section content again. It was removed with the rationale of "removed irrelevant fancruft" (diff). Information about the people who judge the performance of a large number of contestants in a contest is highly relevant. Provision of information regarding the judges is credible to provide a balanced overview of the event. The removal of said content under the generic rationale of "irrelevant fancruft" is ambiguous, and does nothing to improve the article. The content removal also removed proper references from the article, which also reduces the quality of the article. Many articles about competitions have information about judges. For example, see :American Idol and Top Chef for starters. The Miss World events are viewed by millions of people when they occur, and dismissing content about the judges as "fancruft" does not hold water per the popularity of the event.

Wikipedia talk:Mediation Committee/Members/Emeriti

message: I am moving Essjay out of the "Mediators Emeriti" section because the lead text states "Mediators emeritus are welcome to take part in Mediation Committee activities at any time."  Without any animus towards Essjay, I think that this statement does not apply to Essjay.  If you disagree, revert me.  
It may be useful to consult the Emeritus article.  Emeritus doesn't just mean "former" or "retired"; it also carries with it the sense of distinction and meritorious service.  Rupert Murdoch is partly right "meritus" does mean "you deserved (or earned) it".
Essjay may have performed meritorious service as a member of the MedCom.  I know that he served Wikipedia well in many capacities despite his stupid fraud which tainted all of that service.
The question is whether we want to list him as a Mediator Emeritus and whether we want to extend to him the invitation to return and participate in MedCom activities "at any tiem".

text: Indeed. I don't have a copy on me for the page reference, but I remember a footnote in the list of Liberal leaders in the Dictionary of Liberal Biography (1998), which stated that Maclean as Chief Whip would chair the meetings of the parliamentary party, but Asquith remained leader in the country at large. This was on the (admittedly very optimistic) assumption in the period December 1918-January 1920 that a by-election in a winnable seat would imminently come up, signalling Asquith's return.

If that was wrong then we should probably outline what the dispute is here. Anyways, there seems to be some confusion about whether The Lillingtons are actually together at the moment. The article mentions that they don't plan on doing anything after the release of their latest album, but I took the active years for the infobox from the dates given at the beginning of the article (in paranthasis). As a result I didn't list any past or present members since I have no idea which place to put the majority of the members.If you're interested please feel free to research this, correct the dates if needed and add the members to the info box.
