Talk:Anglo-Scottish war (1650–1652)/Archive 2

End date
This still needs to be resolved. The new title and the lead now state 1652, whereas the infobox has 3 September 1651. MichaelMaggs (talk) 17:10, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Good point. Changed. Gog the Mild (talk) 20:41, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but do we have something to point to that supports the 1652 date?? 2001:558:6017:107:D5B4:958E:C45E:CAE4 (talk) 22:14, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Exactly. Also, the issues that I raised with the supporting articles still need to be addressed.  But at least the fundamental debate over the title is over.  Now that we have that settled, we can move forward with the rest.  But we do need to resolve those remaining issues before resuming the featured article process.  We can't say this article is one of Wikipedia's finest if it is in fundamental conflict with other articles and, in some cases, with itself.  2001:558:6017:107:D5B4:958E:C45E:CAE4 (talk) 19:41, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm really stretched for time at the moment, work-wise. I should have time on Friday/Saturday to address all of the points that you raised in your comments during the move discussion (which I thank you for). Cheers Girth Summit  (blether)  21:56, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem. There's no deadline here.  Take your time.  Just glad to see the points are being taken seriously.  2001:558:6017:107:D5B4:958E:C45E:CAE4 (talk) 22:14, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Definitely taken seriously. Sorry, I should have responded more fulsomely before now - combination of work being exceedingly hectic, and not wanting to further bludgeon the discussion above (my signature appears a lot on this page...). With regard to the Irish/rest of Britain question, I know that the current wording is supported by Jane Ohlmeyer's work (she's an Irish historian of the period, referenced in some of the citations), including the assertion that Worcester was the last significant conflict. I am assuming that the later dates elsewhere are referring to minor skirmishes/guerilla tactics, but I didn't want to say anything without referring back to the sources - I will do so in due course. Thanks for keeping an eye on this, and please do let me know if you see things that need work as we continue to improve these articles. Girth Summit  (blether)  22:27, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, just an update to say that this is on my to-do list, I need a little bit more time to get in front of the sources and write a couple of sentences about the fighting that continued into 1652. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:43, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I've now added a few more words to justify the 1652 end date. Better late than never... Girth Summit  (blether)  14:02, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
 * I've also changed 'last significant engagement' to 'last significant pitched battle', per the IP editor's concerns about Ireland (since the captures of Limerick and Galway happened after Worcester). Girth Summit  (blether)  14:14, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Fleet Peninsula
In the Battle of Inverkeithing section, mention is made of North Queensferry being on the red-linked Fleet Peninsula. It's not a name I've heard before and I can't find other mention of it. The battle's own article refers to it as the Ferry Peninsula, which I haven't heard either but possibly sounds more plausible, containing the so-named village and the Ferry Hills. Does this fairly small headland have a name? Mutt Lunker (talk) 21:07, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
 * "Fleet" is a typo for Ferry. Well spotted. Gog the Mild (talk) 21:51, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
