ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Deletion proposal
Just drawing this one to your attention, which may be of interest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Hubertus,_Hereditary_Prince_of_Saxe-Coburg_and_Gotha Engleham (talk) 09:22, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
 * @Engleham I have added my opinion to the discussion now. --Editor FIN (talk) 06:54, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/Lady Rose Gilman
Editor FIN, please note that AFDs are not polls. As Articles for deletion states, "The debate is not a vote; please make recommendations on the course of action to be taken, sustained by arguments" and the same applies to all deletion debates. Any statement that just consists of "Keep" or "Delete" with a signature can easily be dismissed by the admin making the final decision (as yours was at the Lady Rose Gilman discussion). Try, in the future, to present persuasive reasons in line with policy or consensus as to why the article/template/category/whatever should be kept or deleted, and try to make sure it is an argument based on the right reasons. &mdash; Coffee //  have a cup  //  beans  // 07:11, 1 February 2016 (UTC) Are you nuts?

Viscount Simon
You didn't have to edit-war me on Viscount Simon and get shirty about it. I'm persuaded by your argument, and would have reverted my last edit myself. J. D. Crutchfield &#124; Talk 15:57, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * @Jdcrutch I'm happy that we reached a solution. Sorry, if I was shirty, but I felt that you were patronising me to some extent. --Editor FIN (talk) 04:51, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * No worries. We each seem to have misjudged the other somewhat.  I didn't mean to patronize you:  since the article's Talk page is a public forum, I thought I should lay out a complete argument, without presuming prior knowledge on the reader's part.  Your point about the heirs of the first peer's body was one I hadn't thought of.  It wasn't clearly mentioned in any of the sources I had at hand, but some reflection ought to have led me to it.  Best of luck.  J. D. Crutchfield &#124; Talk 16:57, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Move request
Greetings! I proposed a move at Talk:Julian Byng, 1st Viscount Byng of Vimy (moving it to Julian Byng, per WP:NCPEER and WP:COMMONNAME). I would like to hear your opinion on it!--The Traditionalist (talk) 13:18, 17 March 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kamalesh Sharma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Indian. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:12, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you for noticing. I have corrected that now. --Editor FIN (talk) 14:34, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

 * @Cantab1985 Done! Thank you for noticing. There was only one small mistake: "years = " was added twice for Colonel of the Yorkshire Regiment. --Editor FIN (talk) 14:15, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Contention
Hi FIN. Re: "Reverted, because peers are known by their titles in the House of Lords, not by their names.", I wonder whether I might contend that Wikipedia articles are not in the House of Lords? DBD 09:39, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi. Both Lord Speaker election, 2016 and Non-affiliated members of the House of Lords deal with peers in their capacity as members of the House of Lords. Why do you think that peers should rather be known by their names than by their titles in those articles? --Editor FIN (talk) 10:18, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Apology
I owe you an apology regarding my edit summary for Shami Chakrabarty. I said that she was gazetted on 16 August not 6 September. I hadn't noticed that she was gazetted twice - once for intention to appoint and again when the full title was established. Sorry. Apuldram (talk) 17:01, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * No worries. Honours usually appear in The London Gazette only once, but peerages belonging to some honours list are an exception. --Editor FIN (talk) 18:27, 11 September 2016 (UTC)

Chakrabarti
Regarding your edit today here: In the new reference, Chakrabarti is mentioned on page 2, but page 1 (19331) comes up on the screen. I suggest changing the ref to 19332. I would do that myself, but because of my previous mistake I'm mentioning it here instead. Apuldram (talk) 12:23, 13 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Thank you for noticing me. I corrected that. --Editor FIN (talk) 16:43, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

House of Lords years of induction
Great work adding the years of induction. I'd intended to continue adding them, but I've started a new job in the past few weeks, and was completely swamped. --William Quill (talk) 12:12, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

Flags on the House of Lords by-elections
Hi my idea was with the flags of the by-elections is which county the Peerage was created as I thought it was a good idea. Mr Hall of England (talk) 12:14, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi. I understand your logic, but I think that that is not very essential information in the context of by-elections to the House of Lords. Hereditary seats in the House are not allocated by country and peers don't form groups in the House by country. It should also be noted that a random Wikipedia reader could get a false impression that flags refer to individual peers' own home countries. --Editor FIN (talk) 06:02, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of children of prime ministers of the United Kingdom


The article List of children of prime ministers of the United Kingdom has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "I think this page should be deleted for many reasons. It is just an indiscriminate list of information, children (and grandchildren in particular!) of Prime Ministers hold no power, or official position as such. Most if not all of the living individuals are 'private individuals' who do not seek any particular fame, and the article is almost entirely unsourced."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
