Images at Monarchy of Canada
[edit]Will you stop reverting to your personal preference? The article is about the Monarchy, therefore symbols of the Monarchy should be used. It makes no sense to display the image of William's banner before that of Her Majesty, especially without displaying the banner of the Prince of Wales who is heir apparent to the throne. There is no consensus at Talk:Monarchy of Canada regarding what the display should be, so any further changes to the display of banners will be reported to WP:ANEW. You may consider this notice the equivalent of {{uw-ew}}. I will also place a similar notification on the talk pages of other editors involved. — Jkudlick • t • c • s 00:18, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Much of what you've written is not reflective of reality. The rest is unclear: Do you mean further changes to the status quo, none of which have consensus? Or do you mean further changes from the changes made to the status quo without consensus but which you personally prefer? I certainly hope you aren't resorting to threatening everyone away from ever changing your favoured edit. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 00:31, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Well, @Jkudlick:, GoodDay's gone and made a change. Will you be reporting him now? --₪ MIESIANIACAL 00:41, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- If you look at the time stamps, that edit was made before I notified any editors of my intent to report any further warring to ANEW. Though I will admit that a warning was not required, I believe in providing all available opportunities to resolve conflict, and I cannot report an edit made before my warning. — Jkudlick • t • c • s 00:46, 6 April 2016 (UTC)
- Oh, yes, of course. It's simply coincidence it's an edit you've just expressed support for and the fact it has as little consensus as any other alteration to what was there for a very long time is completely irrelevant. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 00:49, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Recent edits to Lieutenant Governor of Ontario
[edit]Thank you for your recent edits to Lieutenant Governor of Ontario.
Regardless of the standard nature of the text across articles about Canadian Lieutenant Governors, which seems to be flawed…
I would be curious to know your source for the assertion that the Lieutenant Governor is "tasked with carrying out most of the monarch's constitutional and ceremonial duties". In fact, the monarch has no constitutional duties in respect of Ontario. Put another way: If the Lieutenant Governor carries out most of The Queen's duties, which ones are or could be carried out by Her Majesty personally? The Queen does not form part of provincial constitutions, and neither has Her Majesty been endowed with any functions by provincial legislation.
For the same reasons, it seems erroneous to claim that The Queen "operates distinctly within the province". To suggest (and I believe it is so suggested) that Her Majesty could exercise powers in respect of Ontario if only she didn't "live predominantly in her oldest realm, the United Kingdom" is very misleading.

I am looking at adding usage of the British royal standards in Canada prior to the adoption of the Canadianised standards, but thought I would check in with you first to see what you think. I've done some photographic research of previous royal visits and tours and have found several examples going back to 1860-2009 of use of the British Royal Standard, as well as the standards of The Prince of Wales, The Princess Elizabeth (prior to becoming Queen), and the standard for members of the Royal Family not entitled to their own standard based on their coat of arms. Fry1989 eh? 14:33, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
Can you please explain why you removed my section? You ignored me here, so you appeared to have no opinion in either way. Why should we not mention the use of the British standards in Canada? It only adds to knowledge of the subject of the article. Fry1989 eh? 23:05, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- My edit summary was quite clear. The article does mention the use of British standards. So, clearly I have no problem with it. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 23:11, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- There is a minor paragraph and thank you for including my addition in condensed form, but should we not elaborate and include the images? 1860-2009 is a pretty long time, I think it is worthy. Your edit summary takes issue with how I wrote it as if it was more about the history of royal tours than the flags themselves. Surely we can write it differently. Fry1989 eh? 23:35, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
- What more is there to elaborate on? When one says "before there were Canadian royal standards, members of the Royal Family used British royal standards while touring Canada", it's redundant to add "when in Canada in 1919, the Prince of Wales used the Prince of Wales' flag for England and Wales." Obviously he used that flag, the first sentence said so. I guess you could point out when the first use in Canada of the monarch's or the Prince of Wales' banner was. But, no more than that. Certainly no gallery that only duplicates what's at Royal standards of the United Kingdom. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 01:04, 25 July 2016 (UTC)
- I understand. I do apologise for bothering you once more, but you may have noticed I am working on the SVG files of the royal standards of the UK on Commons, removing a lot of the flaws especially with the Scottish quarter which was poorly drawn. Once I am done with them, I would like to update Royal Standard of the United Kingdom, but I would like to list them according to rank. I have tried searching for a list of rank for the Royal Family but haven't had much luck. Would you suggest I use the order of succession? Fry1989 eh? 20:45, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

Regarding Adrienne Louise Clarkson
[edit]I do not understand why your English source only include her Hakka side and not the other side. It's clearly stated like on her chinese wikipedia https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BC%8D%E5%86%B0%E6%9E%9D , baidu, hakka chinese article that only her maternal side is of Hakka ancestry not her paternal although she properly identifies as Hakka but she is still of mixed ancestry. So please do not remove her Taishanese ancestry just because the incredible lack of data on her exact ancestry on English sources. And if you ask any Hakka person they will tell you , her mother is hakka but not his father. It amazes me the amount of incorrect of data that English sources offer. You can easily ask the Hakka wikipedia users saying she is not of pure ( only maternally hakka ) 77.98.238.98 (talk) 20:02 ,21 Jully 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.98.238.98 (talk)

BASICALLY EVERY CHINESE SOURCE ONLY MENTIONS HER MOTHER BEING HAKKA, although she properly identifies as Hakka only her mother is Hakka so please unless you find me a source where it shows she is paternally Hakka aswell 77.98.238.98 (talk) 14:38, 23 July 2016 (UTC)
Lieutenant Governor of Ontario article
[edit]Hi, just letting you know I reverted your edit here. The [failed verification] template is for the specific statement "The Lieutenant Governor of Ontario is […] tasked with carrying out most of the monarch's constitutional and ceremonial duties.", which isn't found in the citation which directly follows. Your edit summary said "see article body for role", but the "Role and presence" section doesn't actually mention the monarch, let alone state that the lieutenant-governor's duties are assigned to her. It's possible that this was mentioned before but was deleted, but if a citation can't be found it would be best to re-word the lede. ¡Bozzio! 14:00, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
- Perhaps you need to be more clear, as there's two points you seem to have issue with, but are challenging both with one tag.
- The fact of the lieutenant governor undertaking constitutional duties in the monarch's name is supported by the already-provided citation (though citations aren't necessary in ledes). The fact of the lieutenant governor undertaking ceremonial duties in the monarch's name is supported in the 'Role and presence' section of the article. As already said, citations aren't required in ledes precisely because the lede is a summary of the article body, which itself should be reliably sourced. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 15:13, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

Royal Standards of Canada
[edit]Would you please explain why we shouldn't name who the Prince of Wales is? I do not understand the opposition. Fry1989 eh? 01:01, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
- Basically, WP:NPOV. No one here, I suspect, is sure whether the banner is uniquely Charles', or it's that for not only the current Prince of Wales, but that of all successive princes of Wales, as well. The Register says it's the standard of the Prince of Wales, only; not that of Charles, Prince of Wales, or Prince Charles, Prince of Wales. --₪ MIESIANIACAL 16:24, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
According to CNN, he has not yet ascended, which is specifically what the table is measuring. If you'd like to also put a note in there stating that he is the legal monarch (with a proper citation), though not yet ascended, that would be fine. McKay (talk) 16:44, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

- Category:Fictional American people of Irish/Scottish descent, He's part owner of an Irish pub and a radical Roman Catholic, but his surname "McDonald" is Scottish in origin and found in both countries
Categories he might belong in:
- Category:Fictional bartenders, he part owns/runs a bar but doesn't serve behind the counter
- Category:Fictional preachers, he preaches his Catholic beliefs to everyone, but it's not a job
- Category:Fictional karateka, probably not, he pretends he knows it and does made-up karate moves often

Please comment on Nazi aspects of King Edward VIII
[edit]Good afternoon, User:Miesianiacal. You and I have not always seen eye to eye on every issue, but I often respect your work on Wikipedia.
In the past, you were involved in a debate at King Edward VIII and another one has arisen. Recently, I added fully-cited content that discussed the Duke's pro-Nazi sympathies and actions. Another User (DrKay) has now deleted that content on at least three occasions. After he did so, I reinserted it, making changes that complied with criticisms he had made. All of the content I had added was fully cited: major newspapers, royal biographer, history books, etc.
Once again, he has deleted all of the content. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Edward_VIII&action=history 17:30, 24 December 2017 DrKay (talk | contribs) . . (82,472 bytes) (-8,193)
Not a single other User who has been involved with this article is willing to get involved, in spite of two Talk topics at the article. Perhaps they are worn out by the many previous edit disputes. I do not want to be accused of Edit Warring so, for now, I will not Revert the latest edit.
Basically the same situation is now also occurring at Edward VIII abdication crisis.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Should I use the Wikipedia:Feedback request service? Thanks, Peter K Burian (talk) 18:18, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

Cross of Valour (Canada) capitalization of monarchy in sidebar.
[edit]I was looking back at my contributions and I remembered you undid this, I was curious as to why? I believe it is more grammatically correct to have it capitalized in that situation. If the bar had Awarded by the monarchy of Canada in one line, that would be correct, but as it's positioned below the coat of arms, it makes Monarchy of Canada become a proper noun, I suppose. Either way, I'd suggest either making it all take one line, or capitalizing monarchy. Just wanted to message you to make sure you don't have any disagreements with it before I change it back, I'll wait a few days before changing it back if you don't respond, but let me know if it's fine with you, or if it's wrong let me know why, please.
P.S. Sorry if this isn't the proper space to bring this up, don't really contribute too often on wikipedia, and it felt weird bringing it up on the talk page for what I mentioned... Still does here, too, but I digress.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Jean-CinC.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:Jean-CinC.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. 廣九直通車 (talk) 10:04, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Rideau Hall, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Clerk of the Privy Council.

[edit]Neo-Norman
[edit]Hi,
I wonder if you can explain the terms "neo-Norman" and "Norman Revival" in Canadian architecture?
Citadelle of Quebec#Royal and viceregal residence describes the residence as "a neo-Norman structure" (linking to Norman architecture), a description added by you in 2015; while 24 Sussex Drive is described as "The exterior of the house is a mid-century modern take on Norman Revival architecture" (this time linking to Romanesque Revival architecture), a description first added to the infobox by your previous account in 2008.
Neither description seems to be sourced, and I can't identify anything about either building that I would consider Norman, in the sense of the Norman architecture and Romanesque Revival architecture articles - neither has, for example, any round arches or castellated turrets that I can see. Nor can I find a description of either building as 'Norman' that is not plausibly sourced from our articles.
I did stumble across this article from Rough Guides, which says "Maison Maillou ... with its steeply slanting roof, displays the chief elements of the climate-adapted architecture brought over by the Norman settlers". This seems to suggest a very different possible meaning of "Norman" - architecture related to the 17th and 18th century architecture of Normandy, brought over by settlers from that region. I'm wondering if that is what is meant? But if so that could really do with clarifying. TSP (talk) 21:48, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
List of titles and honours of George VI - Unsourced content
[edit]Hi! I see that you have under your previous username contributed to the article named in the subject. What you wrote has since long been removed, however, I have some questions.
Do you have a source for the last part of this contribution where you said George VI could “for a period in May 1929, George was also entitled to be called His Grace The Lord High Commissioner to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland” ?
I would love to know if this was original research, sourced, or unsourced content, and how you possess knowledge of this?
