China Tamblyn
I know China personally. She was my neighbor when I lived in Hayward CA! Her mother is not Russ's first wife but is with a woman he had an affair with during his second marriage. Her name is Elizabeth Vigil, and I knew her as Betsy! She has a brother named Nathan Vigil and sister named Molly, I think last name is now Christmas! Both are younger! She also has an older brother we called Dondie. These facts are easy to check! She was born in 1969. No wonder people don't trust this site! Melissa613 (talk) 18:42, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

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.

FYI
There is no Beaufort scale parameter in infobox storm. There is, however, a discussion at Talk:2015–16 UK and Ireland windstorm season relating to the use of infoboxes in the article, which may or may not be relevant to your interests. Regards,  Jolly  Ω   Janner  20:58, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

 * Times have changed; guests at a coronation include people of no faith and non-Christian faiths.

Won't you reconsider?
In spite of your criticism of me for being too much like a teacher in an earlier comment, I'd like to ask you to reconsider retiring from Wikipedia. You're obviously intelligent, and Wikipedia needs intelligent editors. It takes time to become used to policies and guidelines, and learn talk page etiquette, but if you assume that most editors make most of their edits in a spirit of good faith, but are human and sometimes make mistakes, and are usually open to being politely corrected or to being persuaded, you will do fine. You'll even be able to get through small hurdles such as notices of edit warring. When you find you disagree with an editor, discussing it on a talk page is usually more effective than discussing it in brief edit summaries. It takes a little longer, but, using your powers of persuasion, and supplying sources and/or precedent, you will find you will often be successful. I'm truly sorry if you find these comments too pedantic. I wish you the best whatever you decide to do. – Corinne (talk) 21:46, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

EgyptAir Survivors
Hi, find me another aviation accident article that does not include a survivor count. I think more than "a few people" think survivors should be included. If you think otherwise, go and visit all other accident articles with no survivors and delete their parameters, state that they are redundant, then come back to discuss. We as editors should not help readers choose what is redundant and what is not, some people might have some difficulties understanding the word "fatalities" while some might need the article to be more clear for them to be able to comprehend. I also know that using the word "all" means clearly (to most people) that there are no survivors, but go check on MH17 and Flight 981, they have explicitly stated ALL available facts. Zero survivors is a true fact. Guysayshi (talk) 02:05, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

Crosses pattee/s
Just for the record, whether pattee takes an s in the plural is not a question of grammar, but of usage: has the original French agreement carried over when English adopted the term, or has the word become so "naturalised" that it's treated as an English adjective? A Google search actually turns up plenty of examples of pattees as the plural, and fleurs de lis is pluralised the French way. What we need is an expert in heraldry.

A beer for you!

 * Well done for getting stuck, in I was tempted then daunted. Theroadislong (talk) 20:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I'm not sure, however, if the Dutch Garden belongs to Clandon Park. It and the other formal gardens would seem to be part of the seven acres of land gifted to the National Trust along with Clandon House in 1956. Firebrace (talk) 12:20, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Warning about No Personal Attacks
You made need to read WP:NPA and assume some good faith here for your comments at Charles, Prince of Wales. MilborneOne (talk) 11:52, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
 * You can do something useful like updating the number of engagements carried out by the prince, which has not been updated since 2011. I'm afraid those of us who do all the work to improve Wikipedia and drag it into the present decade are tired of being berated and drawn into lengthy and tedious discussions by the ones who just want to keep everything the way it is.
