Republic of Ireland
We something there in the infobox, to explain why Irish is ahead of Hiberno English. GoodDay (talk) 21:35, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't understand how the word 'first' would add to the knowledge of the reader. First what is the first question I would ask on reading it. Does there have to be any explanation for Irish being ahead of Hiberno-English? Fred DeSoya (talk) 21:40, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, the languages should be in alphabetical order, H is before I. GoodDay (talk) 21:46, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Should they be? Isn't it a fact that if it's official then the native language should come first? I don't know a rule that would back that up mind, though it's just commonsense to me. I'm sure you can show me the rule that states that it should be done alphabetically under any circumstances. Thanks. Fred DeSoya (talk) 21:52, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Is such a rule required? GoodDay (talk) 21:58, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * You only just told me that they should be in alphabetical order. No rule then that states that to be the case. I believe the native language should be mentioned first. There may not be a rule that states that to be the case. Either way, do you think going around and changing them on so many articles is the right thing to do? Fred DeSoya (talk) 22:07, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I figured going by other article infoboxes (which do use alphabetical order), it was the way to go. It's certainly NPoV. GoodDay (talk) 22:22, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Challenge
My first (and possibly only) guess is that your username derives from the cat written about by Gabriel deSoya, from World of Darkness. Daicaregos (talk) 19:27, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * A very good guess but not right I'm afraid. I will say that it is a book, which doesn't narrow it down too much. Fred DeSoya (talk) 19:31, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Help
I have been looking for sources for the England article and am finding it quite time consuming copying from each website one at a time before coming back to paste onto the article or my own page. Is there a way I can copy from several websites at a time without having to paste each one and then going back for another? Thanks. Fred DeSoya (talk) 16:14, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well use can use a website like pastebin and paste a bunch of sites in there. → ♠ Gƒoley ↔ Four ♣ ← 16:48, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks for that. Fred DeSoya (talk) 16:51, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Another possible suggestion is to paste the raw url between the ref tags and then use WP:REFLINKS to fill in the details automatically.  My 76 Strat  16:58, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks to both of you. Fred DeSoya (talk) 17:42, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

England
Hello. I tend to WP:FIXTHEPROBLEM then discuss later if necessary. If we have to discuss every single change first then the editing process slows to a crawl. No offence intended, the majority of your edits have been good ones. Rettens2 (talk) 21:15, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Don't mind me. I was a little pissed off for a couple of minutes and should have stepped away from the computer. I am quite grumpy by nature though! <:) Fred DeSoya (talk) 21:23, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Wales
You may not have noticed that Wales is a very new GA article. WP Wales have worked hard on this article recently to get the cites straightened for the review, but come back next year and this may not be the case. But thanks for your intentions. Happy Christmas.

 * And may I say you have all done a magnificent job of it. A Merry Christmas to you too, and a Happy New Year when it comes. Fred DeSoya (talk) 16:48, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
