Why is today's featured article ( Metrication ) not protected? It has been vandalized more than once.
:Featured articles are (mostly) never protected, and are usually always vandalized. Only the image used on the main page, and the main page itself (and templates) are protected. 
:If the article were protected, it would prevent all the extra people reading it from being able to make fixes, improvements, expansions, etc...  not a good thing!  Bushytails 23:45, 29 October 2005 (UT

thread_title:  Featured article 

message: Just an observation, but I don't see how it's best to use the terminology "British Throne" as is used on the featured article, on the main page of the wikipedia, when the events taking place are pre-1600 and thusly before even the union of the crowns of Scotland and England, let alone the Act of Union 1707 which created an actual British state. Furthermore, it discusses an event of the English line of ascension which in 1470, was as seperate from the Scots throne as any two countries might be.
Might I suggest a change to highlight this? As a Scot myself I tend to pick up on what I percieve to be incorrect usage of "Britain" and "England" where the former is used almost as a replacement sometimes for the latter.

thread_title:  Wording in article on main page literally incorrect?

message: I can't help but notice that the link on for example, the featured article on Wikipedia's main page  I mentioned in my last comment was changed to English Throne, but still still links to British Monarchy.
Might I perhaps suggest that events pre-1600 and the union of the crowns thusly be discussed in for example in an English Monarchy article? 
Changing the word to "English" but retaining "British" as a link to me doesn't seem much of an improvement on my original point

:No, it's perfectly correct. Note the Western hemisphere article says:
::Western Hemisphere (capitalised) is a geopolitical term for the Americas and nearby islands. It is derived from the geographical western hemisphere, which is the half of the Earth that lies west of the prime meridian, but usage has shifted so that the term refers only to North, Central and South America, and the islands of the Caribbean. It is also used in a more demographic sense, for the people (and governments and nations) inhabiting the continent.

It is about seeing the beauty, soul, and life in all things.  Although some things may be evil, that does not mean that they do not have a soul.
