You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:18, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

Gilpin

I like the way you built this article up, you are very thorough and add nothing more than what is factual. Where the sources disagree, or are unclear, you have shown that; not a common enough practice. I'll remember to bring anything I find to the talk.

Hi again. I was merging the DNB into Edwin Wyndham-Quin, 3rd Earl of Dunraven and Mount-Earl, but I'm not sure if I made a mess of things. It says, "The son, Wyndham-Quin [subject of article?], graduated B.A. at Trinity College, Dublin, in the spring of 1833", and if I read this right it contradicts the Times obit. Can you check what I did, and verify the obit? cygnis insignis 07:57, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

I have had a little fiddle with the text but need to look closer at the Times obit and the ODNB article, which I have printed out. Why the interest in "Q", please?Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 17:04, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Do my edits answer the question? He went to Eton and then TCD. His son went to Eton then Christ Church, Oxford (Times Obit). The ODNB article says of the son: "Lady Dunraven, however, remained strongly protestant; the boy was sent to Rome for education, and forbidden to communicate with his mother. This produced an obstinate resistance. Lord Adare, as he then was, after some tuition in Paris, went to Christ Church, Oxford, in 1858." Hope this helps Vernon White ^{. . .

Hi Vernon I am not sure why you siezed on the Thomas Gewen article, but it is always satisfying, after one has created an article, to see it taken up and developed so thoughtfully.

Just wanted you to know: I got an edit conflict and what I copied and pasted apparently didn't have the ref name where the reference was first used. If you don't mind, since the first person to put a reference there used the same link I found above, and I replaced that link with a ref name, I'd like to put it back. The formatting is better with my reference.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 19:14, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry to conflict with your edit. the NY Times article is much better than the BBC item. Don't know what happened to the Ref named Kirkpatrick, when I looked. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 22:26, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Sorry. It could be I just forgot to put it there, but when I got the edit conflict I wasn't paying a whole lot of attention to what I was doing. I was concentrating on getting the edit in the place it should be. What happens is that sometimes when someone else is editing at the same time, you have to redo everything to save it. Whether my ref name got in there earlier I don't know, but it should have.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 22:34, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Samuel Prideaux Tregelles

Hello, Having recently consulted this article I wonder what relationship he has to Edwin Octavius Tregelles as they both had something to do with the Neath Ironworks. (I do not have access to Oxford DNB from here so cannot see what is said there about their parents.) --Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 19:52, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

ODNB says "He was the nephew of Edwin Octavius Tregelles" E. C. Marchant, ‘Tregelles, Samuel Prideaux (1813–1875)’, rev. J. K. Elliott, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 19:57, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

I have amended the Samuel Prideaux Tregelles article to indicate his parentage and uncle. The Quaker Burial Ground at Budock has a large collection of Tregelles gravestones. Wodehouse Place was later the home of Alfred Fox, the fourth son of Robert Were Fox (1754–1818) and his wife, Elizabeth Tregelles (1768–1849). Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:19, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

ODNB has several references to SP Tregelles in other articles.

Elizabeth Tregelles (1768–1849), mentioned above, was the daughter of Joseph Tregelles of Penryn, according to articles on Charles and Robert Were Fox the Younger, her sons and Alfred Fox's brother. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:31, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Peter Price is another in the family network - no WP article yet. ODNB says: "On his return to England, Price became an agent for the Coalbrookdale Iron Company in London. Later he became a corn factor in Stourport and then in Cornwall. In 1781 he married Anna (d. 1846), the sister of Samuel Tregelles. The couple had one son and two daughters. The Tregelles family were Quaker merchants in Cornwall who were also linked through marriage to the powerful Fox family of Falmouth, who were ships' agents and important adventurers in the Cornish mines. In 1791 the Fox, Price, and Tregelles families were the main investors in the Quaker partnership that founded the Perran foundry near Falmouth. This concern was set up to manufacture engineering parts for the Cornish mines. In 1792 the same partners leased land at Neath Abbey in south Wales. Here an ironworks was built with two furnaces to supply the Perran foundry with pig iron." Laurence Ince, ‘Price, Peter (1739–1821)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 accessed 3 Sept 2012Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:40, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much: this information will be useful to anyone interested in this family.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 13:36, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

But not quite enough notability for a family Wikipedia article. What is your particular interest in SP Tregelles, please? Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:17, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Having found his article I thought he should be included in List of Cornish Christians which began as a supplement to Christianity in Cornwall. This is still rather sketchy particularly the Hanoverian periodSomething could be added there based on H. M. Brown's book but it has not yet happened. When more than one member of a family has an article including the parentage is useful.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 12:43, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

List of Cornish Christians

Felix FS - List of Cornish Christians is a useful list but could get quite long. Is there Anglican bias? What criteria of Cornish is used? Born, Lived for over "n" years ... for instance, was Catherine Payton Phillips (in ODNB and a biography forthcoming) a Cornish Christian? She lived here 1772 to her death in 1794 and re-organised and empowered the Women's Monthly Meetings on Cornwall Quarterly Meeting. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 15:18, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

It began I think as one of the lists which I made out of the old List of Cornish people after it was purged of all the people without a citation attached to them. It was then included in the Christianity in Cornwall article to show the variety of Christians from the county and also made a stand alone list called List of notable Cornish Christians but another editor removed 'notable' as there was a rule against it. No rule about who qualifies exists; Anglicans may be better covered because I am a member of that project. The rule for "List of Cornish people" would apply, so just attending a college in Cornwall or having a second home would not be enough. Anybody who seems to fit could be added, but it would be unwieldy if every Cornish Christian in Wikipedia was on the list. Catherine Payton Phillips would be significant enough for inclusion I think.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 18:52, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Added CP Phillips. Pity Father Bernard Walke (vicar of St. Hilary from 1912 to 1936) hasn't a WP article. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 21:35, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

Glad to see the Constantine War Memorial illustrating the Christianity in Cornwall article. How about Anna Maria Fox (21 February 1816 – 18 November 1897) a promoter of the Royal Cornwall Polytechnic Society and the artistic and cultural development of Falmouth in Cornwall, UK for the List? very ecumenical Friend.

Anna Maria Fox could be added. Father Walke has been listed at Project Anglicanism requested articles but nobody has done an article yet. Some reliable sources for his life would be needed first otherwise his notability might not be adequate. Annie & Bernard Walke would not do as a source. --Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 11:17, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Bernard Walke

Quite a lot in the Cornwall Libraries catalogue: http://prism.talis.com/cornwall/items?query=bernard+walke Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 15:13, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank you: his autobiography which apparently is still in print is one good source and there is a pamphlet by Donald Allchin (out of print). However I am in Manchester so neither of these are likely to be found in libraries here. There is some information in a biography of Filson Young e.g. 40. Bacon, eggs and FY. An article based only on the autobiography would be suspect anyway and a good newspaper obituary would be a better source.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 19:42, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

I bought a copy of the autobiography, which has a lovely portrait by Laura Knight on the cover. it is most entertaining! I'll send you the book when I have read it, if you wish. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:01, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

Catalogue entry for a photograph : Cornwall Record Office RefNoP 59 /28/4 Title: Photograph, Father Nicolo Bernard Walke Date: Early 20th century Description: `Father Nicolo Bernard Walke b. 15 June 1874 at the Vicarage, Redlynch, Wiltshire. Died 24 June 1941 in Cornwall and buried in Lelant. Vicar of St. Hilary Cornwall, 1912-1936.'

Thank you all the above information; in about a week's time I may have a copy of the autobiography ordered through a bookshop. When I have that it should not be too hard to do an article. There is about two pages of text about Bernard Walke in Joan Rendell's Cornish Churches which would provide enough for a stub article. I have only written a few new articles and of these only one was a biography.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 16:45, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

It's a good read! Might be a good idea to set up a page for drafting at, say, User:Felix Folio Secundus/Bernard Walke with some headings and below them the word "Stub" where we have no knowledge. There's a MoS chapter at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(biographies) which may be helpful.Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 14:18, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea; there are so many kinds of editorial work which are useful that I very rarely compile a new article. Christianity in Cornwall and Fishing in Cornwall and a few for the part of Cornwall I know best (Camelford district) but I think the only new biography was Kyra Vayne.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 16:55, 15 September 2012 (UTC)

Have now got a copy of the Truran edition of the autobiography. It does look interesting; it may be a while before I can get started on the WP article but some sources are now within reach.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 18:57, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Have not got started on the Bernard Walke article; however another editor is at work on Annie Walke's article.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 10:42, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

I have finished the book 20 years ... but got swept up in other discoveries, including Fred Murfin's little book. Planning to visit St. Hilary again soon. The Annie Walke article is very useful.Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 18:52, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Bernard Walke now exists as an article; I have read large parts of Twenty Years but done little work on the article yet. H. Miles Brown has a good account of the ritual controversy in A Century for Cornwall (1976) which I hope to draw on; Joan Rendell has about a page and two pictures. There are several more clerical personalities in that book (Cornish Churches) who could be written up. Do you think Sandys Wason of Cury would have enough to make him notable in WP?--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 12:16, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

I hope to produce some biographical notes on the two Quakers mentioned in 20 Years.Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 16:16, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Quaker United Nations Office

This is the copy of a message left on my page. Dear Vernon, can you help with this? The French speaking page is much developped. --MHM (talk) 07:58, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Quaker United Nations Office requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Toddst1 (talk) 17:27, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Edwin Jaggard

The article Edwin Jaggard has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Doesn't meet WP:PROF or WP:GNG.

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Joseph Rowntree (Canadian)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Joseph Rowntree (Canadian) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.toronto.ca/data/parks/prd/facilities/complex/22/index.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Thomas Hodgkin (historian)

Hi there Vernon. In 2010, you added Hodgkin's children to his article, citing a relatively obscure 1971 autobiography, Late Harvest: Memories, letters poems (OCLC 79923696), by one of them. Any chance you still have a copy handy? I'm working on an article on one of the other children, Robert Howard Hodgkin, and would like a source mentioning the child, John Hodgkin, who died in infancy. Also pinging Benedict Wild, who mentioned this son in the article Hodgkin family. Thanks, --Usernameunique (talk) 06:55, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Dear wikipedian

I regret that I no longer have ready access to Sophia Bosanquet’s autobiography Late Harvest: Memories, letters poems.

difference between war trophy and prize of war

@Vernon39 I am Czech, English is my 3rd or 4th language. I am confused, what is difference between war trophy and prize of war. I am trying to link these two articles with their Czech counerparts, but examples provided do not fit with definitions in first paragraphs of the articles. In my opinion it seems a trophy is something what is captured during a battle and intended for display (for memorial of bravery of "ours" and humiliation of "others"), for example an eagle of Roman legion or a flag of opposing army, maybe a weapon or an armour of opposing leader. Other items (food, weapons, art, land) are prize of war (or booty as it is mentioned as synonym), I think. Reing (talk) 14:15, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
