Rideau Hall

Hiya Cam. Ya know, RH would make a nice official residence for the 'President of Canada', eh? PS- I'm always hopefull, ha ha. GoodDay (talk) 15:57, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh, but like PoC says, RH is drab. As for pomp & pagentry? the White House puts on shows aswell. Mind you, a Canadian President (in Canadian tradition) wouldn't be so showy. GoodDay (talk) 16:17, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Still though, the White House can have pomp & pagentry (per indiviual President's style), though not as well as the British monarchy (note: Canadian monarchy is less showy). Perhaps Rideau Hall needs a re-do (sorry, couldn't help myself). GoodDay (talk) 16:27, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

From G2's page. The Canadian republican movement likely needs every nickel they can get. GoodDay (talk) 20:29, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Commonwealth realms related articles

Indeed Cam. I'm getting scared to go out at night. GoodDay (talk) 20:08, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Howabout, Camer (for short)? GoodDay (talk) 20:15, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: How're things

Yes, I know. :D I've been so bogged down with schoolwork, I haven't had time to fit it in. I'm on vacation starting Thursday, so I'll be back soon. miquonranger03 (talk) 21:24, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh no, Huggle's broken! Drat. Lupin's rollback doesn't work for non-admins, and I've never really learned how to use Twinkle efficiently. There are a few tools available, but I really have no desire to try anything else at the moment. For now, I suppose, I'll have to write articles. Who does that these days? :D miquonranger03 (talk) 06:02, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I feel welcome :)

Thank you, and kudos on the projects, they are, as you say, right up my alley. And I am, of course, a Monarchist, I find the idea of republicanism in New Zealand, or most of the 'old' Commonwealth scary, because I, myself, admire the Queen, and enjoy the idea of a hereditary ruler, even though I live thousands of kilometers away. :) Taifarious1 13:05, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They do sound like me, although there is one thing about the royal family that bugs me a bit, the fact that I was never part of it, but i suppose it was not meant to be, I will just have to settle for being a subject. And whoever said "the sun never sets on the British empire" is rather daft, its 2 in the morning here, black as the ace of spades. I love colloquialisms. And BTW, that commonwealth realms talk page is full, someone should archive that soon, or start handing out compasses to people when they want to contribute ;P And I think the New Zealand standard is still the best looking, all the others are all cluttered but NZ's one seems really pilgrim-ish and spartan, maybe the creator was trying to say something about NZ. Deep as a paddling pool . . . :) Taifarious1 13:25, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Sort of. I think if one of the major root problems are eliminated, there'll be less issues/disputes and more harmonious editing. After investigating for 6 hours and a bit, I've made my first move. Ncmvocalist (talk) 19:34, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If you find the same extent of disruptive conduct on the part of PrinceOfCanada, let me know - I looked at each editors involvement in that 6 hours, and while I did find that others haven't been saints, their misconduct has not even remotely matched the problems associated with that user. That sort of misbehavior is unambiguously unacceptable at any level, and incompatible with the editing model at Wikipedia. Ncmvocalist (talk) 19:50, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Baubles and OOOH SHINY

I have that template on my watchlist ;) Ps, was going to bring up there.. I'm not sure the template should be called 'Jewels of Liz II'; almost everything in the navbox is property of the State (oversimplifying; you know what I mean). Prince of Canada t | c 19:47, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps rename 'other' to 'see also'? Prince of Canada t | c 19:52, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I put a modified version on the template page, wrapped in noinclude tags. I'll have to pop down to the library and see what I can find on Her Madge's pretty rocks and things. Prince of Canada t | c 20:25, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi.. I think the many new additions to the Crown Jewels navbox may be making it a bit unwieldy. I've created a version specifically for EIIR's personal jewels; perhaps we can restore the Crown Jewels template to only Crown (& related, e.g. George Diadem, crown of India) Jewels? What do you think? Prince of Canada t | c 13:58, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Signature question

Hi Cameron! How can i edit my signature permnently? Trying to make it look fancy :P Wiki Roxor (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 19:49, 8 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Thanks! WikiRoxor talk 04:47, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Embedding links

Erm..got another question for ya. How can i make an image into a link to another page...i cant figure it out.. it always lead to the image info page. WikiRoxor talk 04:49, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind.. i figured it out :D WikiRoxor talk 17:04, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Herakles sings

Thanks for the link. I'm betting that's it, but for some reason, it's not working for me. (I'm getting the player, but no sound....) Ah, well... I'll ask my local library. And I did dub off the DVD once, but don't ask me what cassette it's on. (Yes, Virginia, people used to use cassettes. Some of us still do. ;D) Archie T. Rex who's extinct? 12:56, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Or not. I guess I spoke a bit soon. Had to turn off iTunes first... That's the one. L. J. Tibbs who's extinct? 13:02, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
They haven't been current here for awhile. And I found the theme the best part. ;D (Not a big fan of Christie, or Poirot, myself. Suchet, yes.) Cheerio, old fruit. (Oh, wait, is that WP:NPA? =] ) TREKphiler hit me ♠ 13:19, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So report me, Inspector Clouseau. ;D Jim Braddock the gloves are off, now! 13:31, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg

Hi Cameron!

I noticed that you recently removed the claim stating that the Mountbatten-Windsor family is a cadet branch of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg. Technically speaking, since the Duke of Edinburgh was born a Prince of Greece and Denmark, his male-line descendants are of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg making the Mountbatten-Windsor family a cadet line of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg. Why should it not be included in the article? Just curious ;) --Caponer (talk) 23:11, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ANI case

Hiya Camer. It ain't looking good for G2 at the moment, as I fear they're a few editors out there who are peeved with him (past pesonality conflicts). My Wiki senses tells me that Arbcom is nearing. GoodDay (talk) 13:40, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, an RFC would be more appropiate (also, why wasn't G2's case at Wikiquette?). I just feel that for whatever reasons, some editors have felt rubbed the wrong way by our buddy & things could get ugly. PS- It was great to see Tharky come to the defence. GoodDay (talk) 13:46, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Er.. archiving? People are still commenting. (both for and against, this isn't 'keep it open to get more bad things') Prince of Canada t | c 17:50, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:archival

You know, I was thinking that exact same thing just a bit ago. I'll set up MiszaBot to do it for me. miquonranger03 (talk) 17:49, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

haha...I can't seem to get it to work, so I'll do it myself. :P miquonranger03 (talk) 23:55, 10 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Queen's Jewels

I just wanted to say that I read through the article and found it fascinating! Good work, and I hope it passes GAN! Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 12:57, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll see if I can do anything as well. I have access to a number of extra sources through my university's subscription, so maybe there's something I can dig out. PeterSymonds (talk) 15:40, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
