Silly me! I should have checked before I moved Wolfe Tone. It's just that so many of these Britannica articles are being put in on the full name -- the other day I moved William Harcourt from "William George Granville Venables Vernon Harcourt", which was quite ridiculous. Could you maybe change the text of the Wolfe Tone article, where it says, "commonly known as", to explain which bit is what? [[User:Deb|Deb]] 19:09 11 Jul 2003 (UTC) |

- Political Affiliations: Left of centre
- Location: Dublin, Ireland
- Personal Vices: smoke too much, a Wikiholic.
On Wiki! |
Since joining Wiki in November 2002, I have written primarily though not exclusively on Irish affairs, both political and historical. I have however broadened to cover a wide range of areas, from Papal Tiaras to Communist state, Blessed Virgin Mary to Oral sex!!! Since buying a digital camera in May 2003 I have devoted time (far too much time!!!) to taking photographs around Dublin for use on wiki. The lists below don't include all the images added. |
