I have a legitimate second account - Bencherlite (AWB) - to keep my AWB editing separate from my main editing. Discussions are archived after 7 days, but you can copy older discussions back to this page if necessary. I will reply on your talk page to messages you leave for me here, unless you tell me otherwise - I know it splits conversations up, but this method does at least generate the "You have new messages" banner for you. Please click on the "+" at the top of the page to leave a message on a new topic, or "edit" to carry on an existing discussion. Thanks.

I've just noticed that you're a Welsh-speaker. I have asked a couple of other Welsh-speakers if they would help with this but they haven't replied. I wonder whether you could provide a note to explain how to pronounce the name Llŷr. It needn't be anything technical. In fact, I wonder how useful those very technical pronunciation guides are - how many people understand them? It would be nice to know what to call him. I guess it's something like chloo-er.

Quaere re templates

Hello and thank you for your recent welcome when I joined the Law Project. Could you help me understand a couple of things regarding templates?

  • First, let's use the Law Project for an example, say I come across a page that obviously should be part of the project and is a stub. Should I tag it as a {{law-stub}} on the article page, tag it as Law Project article on the talk page and assess it as a stub, or both? Is there any harm in it being both? Will it get double reported if it is tagged in both places?
  • Further, do I understand correctly that if I should happen to create the stub, it would be fine to tag it as a {{law-stub}}, fine to add the Law Project Template to the talk page, but inappropriate to then give it any class rating or importance assessment? If someone else, or some group of editors of which I was only a minor contributor, later built the article up beyond stub class, would it be appropriate for me to assess it then or should I forever abstain as the article's creator?
  • Finally, when tagging a talk page, should one sign the tag? or is that sort of an exemption from the signing rule? Is it better to make a comment as to why one thinks the article is within the project or why one is assessing it a particular way? There have been a few articles I have run across that have no project tag, clearly belong within law, and have no comments at all. Upon tagging the article, I've added my signature after the tag, but later if a comment is made, it does look a little odd. In these cases, the tag itself didn't seem to require comment as it wasn't a borderline article.

Thanks.--Doug.(talk contribs) 20:38, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: category duplication

Hi Bencherlite. I have tagged Category:British Formula One series with {{db-author}}. Thanks for the tip! DH85868993 15:03, 4 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Impatience is a virtue

Still alive and kicking Bencherlite. I do say on my talk page that I am busy in Real Life. Hope you're feeling good, and please don't think that i'm just abandoning wikipedia. The truth is, i've just had my summer holiday and I haven't had access to a computer, so as you've probably guessed i'm now writing to you from college. Please keep in touch with any new tasks,
