Orphaned non-free image File:Eurocoin.va.series3.002.gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Eurocoin.va.series3.002.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 04:16, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Template:British Isles

Template:British Isles has been protected to allow for discussion of its title. It has been possible to change the title of this template on a page-by-page basis. Titles that have been used on different pages being:

• British Isles
• British-Irish Council area
• Great Britain, Ireland, and related islands
• British Isles — or Great Britain, Ireland, and related islands

A user has raised the question of whether this practice is a violation of NPOV.

A list of alternative solutions (aside form those being reverted between) is invited also. --RA (talk) 21:03, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Stadium vs Stadia

I do not deny that in many instances the information included on your revert is correct - but stadia is the more correct term given its usage in higher register including government documents, as I have indicated on the talk page. Please undo your revert. Grand High Most Ultimate Supreme Hochmeister of Wikipedia, the Universe and all parallel Universes (including Ireland and Wales) (talk) 18:19, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Replied on Stadium talk page. Snappy (talk) 18:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Taoisigh's Irish names

Nothing in Wikipedia:IMOS#Naming_people which you mentioned prohibits listing the Irish version of their names, especially since we are talking about the leader of Ireland. I actually bothered to read through that link, sorry...--MacRusgail (talk) 20:25, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Given that the Taoiseach is one of the best known people in Ireland, it certainly does apply here. This is just another example of the petty bureaucracy which infests Wikipedia these days and produces no benefit whatsoever.

I didn't move the page to his Irish name, I merely listed what it was. There is nothing wrong with that, and nothing against the IMOS.--MacRusgail (talk) 11:46, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
