salve
Salve Neddyseagoon, responsum apud Talk:Lives of the Twelve Caesars dedi, et tibi modo dissensi. Et ut te amare linguam Latinam clare vidi, mihi sententia de lingua tituli adhibenda tua fuit, scito, mirabile lectu. Fortasse res est ultra explicanda: Ut valeas.--Ioshus (talk)
 * 1) Numquam legi "vitam" lifestyle significare, at non est incredibile. Habesne definitionis fontem? Credo Benet Salway, professorem meum in historia antiqua, mi dixisse, sed fontem non memini.--Neddyseagoon - talk 09:29, 8 May 2007 (UTC) Rogabo professores meos.--Ioshus (talk) 12:30, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Nescio, et credo te nescire, translationem huius tituli Anglicum quasi officialem. Nonne ergo sit nomen Latinum optimus usus?


 * Haec dixit Professor Rutledge


 * ''Now, as to your question, I'm a pretty strict conservative when it comes to translation, so I would translate De Vita Caesarum "Concerning the Life of the Caesars". If the author meant "Lives" he would have said de vitis, and if lifestyle he could have said de modo vitae. (And I really hate the term "lifestyle" for a variety of reasons).


 * ''That's my opinion for what it is worth. I hope things are going well for you these days and see you around next fall.


 * ''Vale!


 * ''Dr. R.

Stephen Venner
Hello, a while ago I made a few changes to the Stephen Venner article and, having just gone back to check, it seems you created the article.

Because my main intention was just to add a free image of Rev Venner, I wondered if you could have a quick check of the text I have added as I'm not 100 per cent keyed up on the structure of the church, etc.

Many thanks, Duke of Whitstable 10:33, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Nautical terms
Great that you are adding new articles just note wikipedia isn't a dictionary of terms. If you can elaborate on some of them please do. Regards ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦  "Expecting you" Contribs 17:22, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
 * In that case I might start merging them into the sailing articles. Neddyseagoon - talk 08:43, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I'ld like to put shank painter, cat head and cat stopper into anchor, but it's protected for the moment. I have merged clewgarnets and clew up into clew though. Neddyseagoon - talk 08:54, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

He's (I've) fallen in the water
Little Jim here, I've been a bit of a Neddy myself it seems. Sorry, I note you ARE a member of the WikiProject Military history/Classical warfare task force which is where I would have suggested looking for an expert to verify Arverni Guard.

The only thing I can say in defense of my deprodding is that AfD is probably a better option since the veracity of the article is not clear and it may be a useful addition to WP coverage of the Celts. I've checked the contributions of User:Celticepic and it seems s/he was a short term but good faith editor and not prone to creating hoaxes. Unfortunately he is long gone and can no longer give us his sources - the dirty rotten swine!

Btw, I took a peek at your contributions too and you do some excellent work on history articles (which I enjoy too) and you have possibly the best username on Wikipedia - I wonder if Eccles is taken, perhaps I need a change.

Seriously though folks, I'll do a google hunt for any likely sources and let you know what I find. My gut feeling (based mostly on the editor's history) is that this article is genuine - shame there are no sources. Paxse 17:41, 25 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I've tried googling it and haven't got far, but hope you might have better luck folks. And I'll try the Project, yes.  My feeling is that it may be a synopsis of a novel set in the Gallic Wars, seeing as it's not in Bello Gallico, but again it's only a hunch for now. Neddyseagoon - talk 21:30, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
