Textus Roffensis 2014

I see we are crossing.. Come on don't be naughty, look at Clacton by-election, 2014 to compare some of the wording. While I find the decision to strip Rochester of its historic city status ludicrous the best we can do at the moment is to use the wording on the lead of Rochester, Kent which says:

Rochester is a town and former city in the unitary authority of Medway in South East England. It is at the lowest bridging point of the River Medway about 30 miles (50 km) from London.

It is a principle of Wikipedia that we support each edit with a reference so the text can be verified. I think that on a sensitive page we should explain proposed changes on the talk page to gather comment before we attempt to be bold.

As to Emily's tweets we have to be careful of WP:BLP too. Anyone who was sent to canvass in Albatross Ave was tempting fate- particularly as the most common comment from visiting MPs was I thought Rochester was alot flatter than this!

FYI  : "Titles of people" from the Manual of Style

From MOS:JOBTITLES

Offices, titles, and positions such as president, king, emperor, pope, bishop, abbot, executive director are common nouns and therefore should be in lower case when used generically: "Mitterrand was the French president" or "There were many presidents at the meeting." They are capitalized only in the following cases:

When followed by a person's name to form a title, i.e. when they can be considered to have become part of the name: President Nixon, not president Nixon

When a title is used to refer to a specific and obvious person as a substitute for their name, e.g. the Queen, not the queen, referring to Elizabeth II

When the correct formal title is treated as a proper name (e.g. King of France; it is correct to write Louis XVI was King of France but Louis XVI was the French king)

Please follow these principles in future and spare yourself and other editors from further unnecessary conflict and time wasting. Thank you. Anglicanus (talk) 12:54, 22 December 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia etiquette

Please review the unacceptable comments not as yet withdrawn (despite the said party promising to do so) about being INEDUCABLE - M Mabelina (talk) 00:30, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
PS. Wikipedians should be more reliable than this...

  • You are too impatient. People commenting on my Wikipedia activities have been known to tell me "get a life". Yesterday I did just that. I turned my back on Wikipedia and went to a beer festival. During our longest phone conversation yesterday I was walking along the road from Whittlesey to Peterborough. It was nearly midnight before I got home and I was b******d if I was going to draft the carefully worded reply that you needed. Now, rested, I came to your page with every intention of striking the offending word from my message. But you have deleted it - fine. Unfortunately you have reinstated the word and even shouted it. Now it would be totally wrong of me to strike the word because it is now in your handwriting.
Here is my reply to your message. Why are you telling me about a claimed consensus? I have never denied that Burke's Peerage is a reliable source. All I am saying is that a link to the home page of Burke's Peerage or Cracroft's Peerage serves absolutely no purpose. If I see you adding such a link in the future, I am liable to block you again.
Clearly a proper <ref>{{cite book|…}}</ref> reference to a specific entry in Burke's Peerage is completely acceptable. Further, but with the greatest reluctance, I will accept you adding a link such as Thomas Osborne in Burke's Peerage. Note that you must: a) convert any spaces in the URL as shown in your browser's address bar into %20 and the displayed text must be something meaningful such as the Thomas Osborne in Burke's Peerage above rather than an uninformative www.burkespeerage.com. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 14:13, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Thanks & noted RHaworth. M Mabelina (talk) 23:17, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
    • In the case of Osborne baronets, I have now amended the External links reference to that of the specific title of Osborne, of Ballintaylor in [Cracroft's Peerage - www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk], whereas the previous link provided gave the reader opportunity to search for any one of the three Osborne baronetcy titles.

Still Burking

Links to the Burke's peerage article are, if anything, worse than linking to Burke's home page. I will consider them grounds for blocking. To spell that out more clearly: its use in a reference such as is used in Michael Birkett, 2nd Baron Birkett is just about acceptable. But adding a "see also" as here is utterly pointless. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:53, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

Academic post-nominals.

You've already been informed multiple times that academic qualifications are not used as post-nominals in opening sentences. Please stop! Anglicanus (talk) 23:51, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi there Anglicanus - good to hear from you & not only do I concur but you'll no doubt note much improved editing of late! I guess you're referring to PhD with regard to Jesse Norman? Since he is known as Dr Norman how to put this in the article? Thanks & looking forward to hearing. M Mabelina (talk) 23:59, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
PS. I said just now that "Dr prefix needs to go somewhere", but of course "PhD post-nom would also be okay" - totally down to Wiki MOS, but Jesse Norman hates to be called Jesse Norman for fear of confusion - surely his everyday style can be accommodated somehow by Wiki? M Mabelina (talk) 00:04, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
According to the MOS mention of academic qualifications should be included in the body of the article. Some articles include "Style" sections and this might be appropriate in this case. There is disagreement among editors about including academic qualifications in info boxes. Anglicanus (talk) 01:40, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

Academic post-nominals.

You've already been informed multiple times that academic qualifications are not used as post-nominals in opening sentences. Please stop! Anglicanus (talk) 23:51, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi there Anglicanus - good to hear from you & not only do I concur but you'll no doubt note much improved editing of late! I guess you're referring to PhD with regard to Jesse Norman? Since he is known as Dr Norman how to put this in the article? Thanks & looking forward to hearing. M Mabelina (talk) 23:59, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
PS. I said just now that "Dr prefix needs to go somewhere", but of course "PhD post-nom would also be okay" - totally down to Wiki MOS, but Jesse Norman hates to be called Jesse Norman for fear of confusion - surely his everyday style can be accommodated somehow by Wiki? M Mabelina (talk) 00:04, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
According to the MOS mention of academic qualifications should be included in the body of the article. Some articles include "Style" sections and this might be appropriate in this case. There is disagreement among editors about including academic qualifications in info boxes. Anglicanus (talk) 01:40, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

User:AusLondonder

Is User:AusLondonder in violation of Wiki policy? www.parliament.uk clearly states that Corbyn is a Privy Councillor - could he be sanctioned before further reversions? Many thanks M Mabelina (talk) 01:54, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

You are wrong. Maybe you should be sanctioned. AusLondonder (talk) 01:55, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
Please defer to the official parliamentary website of the UK Parliament, wherein it states "Rt Hon Jeremy Corbyn".
www.parliament.uk Please acknowledge - many thanks. M Mabelina (talk) 01:59, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
Yes, the source I posted is from the official parliamentary website of the UK Parliament. Also, I think the words from the subjects own mouth are quite reliable. AusLondonder (talk) 02:04, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
Unfortunately not - he is a longtime republican and was trying his level-best to wriggle out of an uncomfortable question posed by the media after not being seen to sing the National Anthem in memory of War Heroes. Look carefully at gov.uk and you will see that his appointment was approved by HM The Queen: he said "he had not received any letter" - quite different. HIS APPOINTMENT HAS BEEN APPROVED AND THEREFORE HE IS A PC - he will have to apply to have this appointment revoked by Act of Parliament (or formally resign) if he does not wish it be so. M Mabelina (talk) 02:09, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
By the way, that notice by gov.uk is authoritative, so perhaps you would also like to take issue with it?
Wrong on many, many counts. Firstly, his appointment has not been approved. That will/will not occur at the official ceremony. Secondly, respectfully standing in silent reflection during the singing of a song requesting God "save" an 89-year old non-war hero monarch of German descent is not disrespectful to "war heroes", as an actual hero made abundantly clear. Thirdly, it is wrong to suggest an act of parliament must be passed for an individual to leave the Privy Council. John Prescott left the Council a few years ago. No Act required. AusLondonder (talk) 02:19, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
1. his appointment has been approved (per gov.uk)
2. disrespect to the monarchy didn't get Corbyn far (on this count)
3. Lord Prescott resigned (in 2013)! M Mabelina (talk) 02:22, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

I have now seen this: User:Mabelina, you are now engaging in an WP:EDITWAR and making a disputed change with no consensus. AusLondonder (talk) 02:21, 23 September 2015 (UTC) - gov.uk states in Law what I have been saying - so please refer AusLondonder to the appropriate authorities. Many thanks M Mabelina (talk) 02:24, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Is this good Wiki practice to be threatened with WP:EDITWAR by those who don't know about the subject concerned? Of course, please feel free to bow to local pressure, but should you find time to review my edits you might think otherwise? Is AusLondonder's behaviour acceptable according to Wiki's codes of conduct? Many thanks M Mabelina (talk) 02:32, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi there AusLondonder - I should hope that we both have no axe to grind & simply wish for Wikipedia to be up-to-speed with its info.
Since you made some disagreeable suggestion above - namely, you allege "Wrong on many, many counts", which despite your apparent certainty, is utterly incorrect - I thought it as well to put the matter straight about Corbyn and his privy councillorship. First, he HAS been appointed a privy councillor qv. http://www.parliament.uk/about/mps-and-lords/principal/government-opposition/; it is he (Jeremy Corbyn) who wishes for the whole issue to be mired in confusion (successfully so far) ably abetted by one BBC interview, wherein Laura Kuenssberg qv. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-34275164 inaccurately described the ceremony through an apparent lack of knowledge; this put Corbyn "on the spot" but also provided a ready-made get-out clause by perpetuating a myth which seemed to have stuck until recently. Second, from an unexpected source, The Lord Prescott, the public learned on BBC's Sunday Politics that Privy Counsellors do not "kneel", they "hop" - Prescott's description of the ceremony was indeed quite witty! qv. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-34373851.
I see on your Talk page that you rejoice in correcting many so-called BLP violations, so perhaps you would be so kind as to correct these matters accordingly? Many thanks M Mabelina (talk) 21:34, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
