Casimir and Frederic

Please look at Talk:Frederick_II_of_Prussia#Survey and consider revising your vote at Talk:Casimir_I_of_Poland#Survey_2 accordingly. I certainly agree with you that we should have no double standards, and I'd gladly support similar renamings of other famous German monarchs.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 23:24, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

I find it rather odd that someone seemingly filed several move requests Wikipedia:Requested_moves#26_January_2008 to support a desired move away from Casimir I of Poland. -- Matthead  Discuß   04:32, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Consistency, I think, is the answer. Space Cadet (talk) 12:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Consistency, as in keeping all articles as is, seems to have been out of the question. -- Matthead  Discuß   12:42, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

On 2 February, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Herzogin Cecilie, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

I know it's water long under the bridge, but ...

When you moved Hans Müller to Hans Müller (chess player) and redirected that page to a disambig last July, you really should have fixed up the existing links to Hans Müller. Leaving them pointing to a redirected disambiguation rather than the correct page was a bit anti-social. Quale (talk) 18:06, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Jagdschloss Glienicke

An editor has nominated Jagdschloss Glienicke, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jagdschloss Glienicke and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:00, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Glienicke

Hi, Matthead. I just did a major overhaul of Glienicke to make it better conform to the Disambiguation Manual of Style (MOS:DAB) as it was tagged as a disambiguation page and moved it to Glienicke (disambiguation) clearing out a space for you to turn the Glienicke page into an encyclopedic article. I would encourage you to take a look at the links pointing at Glienicke and see where they should point as you have far more knowledge in this area than I. If you have another vision for the purpose of the page, then feel free to revert my edits, but you should probably remove the {{disambig}} tag to keep another editor working in disambiguation from coming along and doing the same thing or requesting clean-up (which is how I came across the page). Best wishes. Gwguffey (talk) 04:53, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
