Trithemis annulata, commonly known as the violet dropwing, is a species of dragonfly in the family Libellulidae. It is found in most of Africa, the Middle East, and southern Europe. Males of this species are violet-red with red veins in the wings, while females are yellow and brown. Both sexes have red eyes. This female violet dropwing was photographed near Kalopanagiotis in Cyprus.Photograph credit: Charles J. Sharp

Love Actually viewing

Hello Gareth. My annual viewing can bring up little things that I hadn't noticed before. Sometimes they aren't directly related to the storyline. Last years was how nice it was to see Liam Neeson before he became Charles Bronson - I'm thinking Death Wish/Taken there. This year I noticed that there are two actors who have played Dr. Watson in the film. Do you know who they are without reading the article? Cheers. MarnetteD|Talk 19:59, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I should add that one of them is easier to find if you view the deleted scenes as he is only seen briefly in the finished film. MarnetteD|Talk 20:10, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Two years ago was noticing that one of the "Wisconsin girls" was played by Betty Draper - er I mean January Jones :-) MarnetteD|Talk 20:59, 26 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oh my word, M! You are now "forcing" me to watch it twice this season.

Can never overdo watching it — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 12:20, 27 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mandioquin me, Jorge Cardoso. I tried to update my page in English but I see no avail and has lost what I wrote . It is a pity. I do not speak English, so I do not understand the instructions. My web is www.jorgecardoso.net pag . If I can not change and update my own biography , what use Wikipedia ?

That sender needs to be told about WP:COI. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 19:34, 6 January 2016 (UTC) Cordially[reply]

Thanks Stan.
For my part, "I can't be bothered," as the young say these days—p'haps they don't in the US—but it makes you wonder what, if any, intelligence such a person has; being unable to converse in English; attempting to edit their own English WP article; trying to confuse matters by having a username different from their actual name; posting here in whatever language that was, and not leaving any linking. Argh! — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 10:25, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

PS I have posted warnings on not using English and conflict of interest on their User talk. Cheers! — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| — 10:44, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. You told them. Trying to edit the English wikipedia when you can't read English is an exercise in futility. And editing your own article is a no. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 12:21, 7 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
