text: I tidied it up. There's nothing there that I know isn't true, though I'd like to see a reference on "Chips" Channon having a thing for Paul of Yugoslavia. It's possible, I suppose... - Nunh-huh 01:57, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)

text: The version you restored indicates that Prince Paul of Yugoslavia had a homosexual affair with Sir Henry ("Chips") Channon. (At least I think it does; it's a bit unclear as to whether it is referring to him or his father). Channon was certainly gay, but I'm not sure that Prince Paul was his "great love". But then I haven't read Channon's rather lengthy diaries. - Nunh-huh 02:47, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)

text: Actually, I've been looking around to see if there is some reference: this page quotes Channon's diary, which describes Prince Paul as " the person I have loved most … the only human being with whom I am completely, wholly natural."  They shared a house in Westminster with Viscount Gage (presumably the 6th Viscount). I still think it's not clear that they were an "item", only that Channon liked him. And Channon did name his only child "Paul". This page, which is a blog, says that Channon's lovers included Sir Terence Rattigan; Lord Wavell; the King's brother, the Duke of Kent; and Prince Paul of Yugoslavia.  I'll look further, Channon was not "discrete" in his diaries, so if it's so, it will be there. - Nunh-huh 03:41, 16 Mar 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: For Nunh-huh

message: Darwinek proposed splitting the article into two separate and adding a disambiguation page, though he doesn't seem to have added an explanation here on the talk page as is customary and courteous in such situations.
Unless the section on Princess Olga Isabelle gets substantively expanded (I suppose in its current state, just about any expansion would be substantive), I strongly oppose the split.  There's simply no information there to warrant a separate article page, let alone a second page for the disambiguation.  Binabik80 23:22, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: That's why I was asking. His name is Edward, while the text can highlight the fact people tend to use the less formal form. Even the change of his attitude after taking the office might be valuable. -- Goldie (tell me) 16:26, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name 

message: The article refers to a libel case (not "slander" as it was broadcast) successfully instituted against Fenech Adami. The description of this case takes a good one-fifth of the section of a political career that spans close to three decades. I think this is both disproportionate and out of place. First, this libel case was inconsequential. Second, since when do inconsequential libel cases get a mention in biographical articles?

replies: text: An alternative interpretation of the term 'effective', and one that seems to have been followed by the courts, is more like 'having the effect of'.  Thus the word has been interpreted as expanding, rather than limiting applicability.  (Measures that weren't even designed for copy protection might have the effect of making copying more difficult.)  But it is certainly ambiguous on its face. --Speight (talk) 03:06, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

See Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (ambiguous adjectives) for a proposed modification. -- Toby Bartels 08:37, 2005 Mar 7 (UTC)
What about something along the lines of:
:Where an adjective is in more common use than a corresponding noun, and applies to a number of different concepts, a disambiguation page may also be appropriate.
By way of precedent, I note that British is already a disambiguation page, rather than a redirect.  Alai 22:21, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

message: According to this convention, it would appear that dual adjectives are to be frowned upon, and should be re-named.  Is there a willingness to set about renaming Russian Brazilian, African American and probably many other similarly named articles, and if so, which is preferered: Fooian Templatonians or Fooian Templatonian people?

message: (moved to Project page)

I haven't had time to formalize the templates for this yet, I'm letting the "Historical States" project mature a little, and then will propose templates for: Prussian provinces, Bezirkregierungen, Kreise and Standesamter. Please see the articles Standesamt Kolmar, Kreis Kolmar in Posen, Bromberg District, and Province of Posen to see how the structure is arranged. Note that this is only for the time frame of Prussian control. For the actual towns, the link is to the article for that town without limit to time frame. These are titled with the current Polish names.
:Should I understand that Schneidemühl is the current Polish name of Piła? I don't get it... Halibutt 01:33, 22 May 2004 (UTC)

This article is only about the time frame: "Standesamt Schneidemühl was one of 9 civil registration districts located in Kreis Kolmar of the Prussian province of Posen, created in October 1874, during Imperial Germany (1871-1918) ". The viewpoint is from the "official" Prussian organization, spellings, etc. of that time, not current.

message: Unless you move in these sorts of circles, it's not really clear what is meant by "club" other than, "something that members belong to."

a) Dudesleeper is correct on the dating. The reason for this is very simple: for many years now release dates have standardized on Tuesdays in America and Mondays in other places. The difference of a single day is not worth this craziness.
*Proposed:  We can use (as as has been the case elsewhere) one date with the UK release date and the second with the US one. You can even use cute little flag icons for them. (b) There are no explicit guidelines on how to incorporate an album article in a discography.
*Proposed: We add a second discography using this format, with the albums discography taking top spot, the chronological one the second:
