Hi CanadianPhaedrus. On what basis do you assert that the force that rescued the Christian Peacemaker hostages was only "possibly multinational"? Jack Straw is quoted as saying: "The operation included representatives from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, other agencies from Canada ... as well as the Americans and British staff and those from Iraq," --Saforrest 23:34, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

-At the time of my edit, information was still developing and the article originally suggested an "All British" force. My edit was intended to compromise between the "All British" and "Multinational". More information has since come to light. Please see your talk page for further info.

Caledonia land dispute
Thanks for adding to the article. However, I moved your addition to the current timeline section since that is where any current development should go. Anyway, I was wondering where you found that info, as we will most likely need to cite the source of the info you provided (Admins are sticklers for that). Thanks. --JFred 18:47, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

I have undone your edit to this page since the cited reference directly backs up the claim that you removed from the article. If you would like to dispute this, please bring it up on the article's talk page. -MBK004 05:44, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for making a post on the talk page, but continually removing the statement from the article before we determine consensus on the talk page is disruptive edit warring and if you revert again you will be blocked for violating our 3RR rule. I intend to take some time later tonight to extensively research the points that you have brought up and respond appropriately. Please wait until then. Thanks, -MBK004 23:14, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your patience in not reverting again. I have taken some time and responded to your query. -MBK004 06:14, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:15, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
