[edit] Henry VIII of England
Hi there. I've put a note that might interest you at Talk:Henry VIII of England. I think your edit there was exactly correct, by the way. The excuse for reverting it was given as "Unexplained edit": you can reduce such reversions by leaving a brief Edit Summary in the box below the Edit Box. More importantly, welcome to Wikipedia, and Happy Editing! JackyR 19:33, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] House of Croy
Thanks for your kind message. I would really like to write decent articles about the likes of Rohan, Ligne, Hornes, Egmond, De La Marck, or La Trémoille but my Russia-related to-do list is too large to leave enough time for Western European families. Still it's a pity that there is no wikipedian who would take care of these. --Ghirla -трёп- 15:59, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
- I concur completely that many of these families need work on wikipedia. I have added a list of some of the most important families during the Burgundian and Habsburg period in the Low Countries on my user page, but I am rather short in my own time as well, at the moment. In the future, however, I would like to add articles about them. Let's see what may come in the future. Thomas Antonius 13:46, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Templates
Hello. I've added the Stadtholder templates recently created on de.wiki; you can see all the ones I made at the bottom of William V, Prince of Orange. Do these look all right to you? Biruitorul 21:52, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply and for the more minor corrections. The trick with templates is always to balance brevity with accuracy: we want them to be informative but not too long. But I certainly wouldn't object to something like this where different symbols indicate different types of stadtholders; in fact I think it would be quite useful. Maybe put the rebel ones in italics. My advice is to do some experimentation and see what works best; you're the expert here. I'll weigh in if needed, but I trust you'll do a good job here. Biruitorul 19:07, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
