Bjmullan, I think we have are wires crossed here. There was no objection to the version prior to NorthernCounties reversion and subsequent blocking. My argument with Sarek is that why did he block NorthernCounties for edit-warring but not revert the page given that he had agreed with the content. This happened prior to your involvement. 2. I am sure you noticed but the source you used is entirely in Irish. Can you prove that the Irish name from that document is the correct one? can you provide a source for the footnote? These questions I raised in the discussion. I did not revert the page as I thought I would give you time to find the sources as this can be quite tedious and it takes a while. But my hand was forced when SarekofVulcan had the page protected for an entire month.[[User:Factocop|Factocop]] ([[User talk:Factocop|talk]]) 16:22, 1 November 2010 (UTC) |

Bj, the fact that you couldnt answer my questions on this page nor on the admin incident page just goes to show that you were just objecting to the change for the sake of it. I assumed good faith that you would attempt to back up your objections but in typical fashion, you chose to ignore.shame![[User:Factocop|Factocop]] ([[User talk:Factocop|talk]]) 09:48, 2 November 2010 (UTC) |

Template:Archive box collapsible Welcome to my talk page, please be civil and comment on my edits and not me. I will answer comments here.
CIL
Hope u don't mind - he won't stop until he sees roi. Anyway funding is liable to change. - ClemMcGann (talk) 21:29, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- But it hasn't changed yet! And does CIL own the ports - no! They are Republic of Ireland ports, to differentiate them from those of Northern Ireland. Clem, you seem like another POV warrior intent on not having Republic of Ireland here. I'm reverting your latest change, so please come up with some arguments in favour of your version. Hrotovice (talk) 21:36, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- with respect, CIL provides the lights - not the RoI. CIL is an all-island body. Even at the height of the troubles, CIL went unmolested. You deleted my cite supporting "an annual contribution from the Irish Government towards the cost of the service provided by the Commissioners in the Republic of Ireland." - you removed my cite for RoI! - and claim that I am "another POV warrior intent on not having Republic of Ireland here" Please desist. - ClemMcGann (talk) 22:13, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- As I've point out in Hrotovice talk page the ports covered by CIL are for the whole or Ireland and therefore using ROI is inappropriate. I have also warn him about his reverting. Bjmullan (talk) 20:49, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
- wait - another awkward insertion of RoI ClemMcGann (talk) 20:43, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
- a further consideration is that, with modern technology, large ships no longer depend on lighthouses. So the sentence is wrong, anyway. There were proposals that lesiure craft should have to pay. Now that labour are out, it remains to be seen what happens to that pproposal. Strictly speaking, the reason why CIL gets cash from Trinity House is that it was a provision of the Anglo-Irish treaty - ClemMcGann (talk) 23:55, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

Silverstone Circuit
I have no doubt you're right about the length of the Stowe circuit, I just copied from the list on the right. I'm now reluctant to change the list on the right as someone is wrong and I don't want to make matters worse!

Mediation: Israel and the Apartheid analogy
Just an FYI, we are running a straw poll on title choices on the mediation page - see Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2010-04-14/Israel_and_the_apartheid_analogy#Straw_poll_on_titles. If you pitch in a vote or three, we can move this along. --Ludwigs2 06:05, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Just a reminder: you have not yet voted on the straw poll. If you don't, your voice will not be heard on this issue, which would be sad. . --Ludwigs2 06:25, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Londonderry/Derry
OK, so the MOS says use Derry for the city and Londonderry for the county, but it doesn't say that either term has to be replaced with the agreed version throughout the encyclopedia. You seem to be engaging in - shall we say - a systematic replacement of Londonderry with Derry. In the light of what's happened with British Isles I would suggest this is perhaps not a good idea. The replacements add nothing and can't even be argued as being right or wrong. LevenBoy (talk) 19:38, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- Whilst i disagree with the compromise on the Londonderry/Derry issue, as it is in the MOS i see no problem with those being changed to ensure the text use is inline with the MOS to avoid different usage which would cause more confusion. It would be a far more justified mission than the crusade to remove British Isles from wikipedia. BritishWatcher (talk) 21:21, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
AN/I
You have been reported to AN/I for disruptive behavior regarding replacing Londonderry with Derry at McKownville, New York, and it seems at least one other editor warned you that this is behavior that may not be acceptable.Camelbinky (talk) 00:00, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, current Good Article Nominee
The 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix (formally the XXIII ING Magyar Nagydíj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008, at Hungaroring in Mogyoród, near Budapest, Hungary. It was the 11th race of the 2008 Formula One season. Contested over 70 laps, the race was won by Heikki Kovalainen for the McLaren team, from a second position start. Timo Glock finished second in a Toyota car, with Kimi Räikkönen third in a Ferrari. It marked Kovalainen's first Formula One victory, which made him the sport's 100th driver to win a World Championship race, and Glock's first podium finish. Much of the race, however, was dominated by a duel between Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa, who drove for McLaren and Ferrari respectively. Hamilton started from pole position on the starting grid but was beaten at the first corner by Massa, who passed him around the outside. The two championship protagonists began a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton sustained a punctured tyre just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a comfortable lead. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to take the win.

I just added 16 good references to one topic alone and a load of tidy up. What did you do? --Triton Rocker (talk) 08:17, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Accidental blanking

2010 Czech Rally
Compliments to you! It's not very often that I see new articles like 2010 Czech Rally. So nice job on that. I went ahead and tagged it as under construction. Is that alright? Endofskull (talk) 21:20, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
- That was quick! Yes it's OK. I will remove it when the (hidden) stage info is complete. Thanks for the compliment :-) Bjmullan (talk) 21:22, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Channel Islands
- TR maybe you could explain to me (I think you said you did study geography) how the channel islands are geographically connected to Great Britian/Ireland/BI and not to France? When I look at the map all I see are small French islands but they always seem to be part of the "geographic" BI's. Bjmullan (talk) 18:46, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
You could try starting with looking at the disciplines of Human geography and their defining nature. There are a number of specifically related books and articles around, e.g. 'Human Geography of the UK: an Introduction' by Hardill, Graham & Kofman. It briefly touches on the changing references to the term British Isles. Geography is not all about land.
As far as the Channel Islands go. I understand what you are saying. They should be French. They are also part of Normandy culturally, geographically and historically. But they are British Isles now. You have to blame a long chain of individuals from the Normans to loyalist families like the De Carterets during the Wars of the Roses. Bear in mind that until 1801, French territories were under English rule, and the interconnectedness of English, French and Norman aristocracies. And don't mention Chausey.
If you are genuinely interested, I would also read up on the creation of national identities, how and when they happens. What has happened in Ireland and Scotland is the creation of a collective identity where they was none one before, based on a romantic notions and geography rather than say tribe, religion or class, in which the dominant "England" is used as a defining other. This actually makes Irishness subject to Britishness (by which you really mean Englishness).
That is not positive and it belongs to the politics of the last century. It has gone as far as it will get and it would be far better for Ireland to define itself based on its position and relationships within Europe. The way to beat "Britishness" (meaning Englishness) is not to dig a trench of "Irishness", that fight is won as much as it can be, but to enjoin and promote Europeanness. To reject and bury Little England under Europe.
As it is, the UK is become less and less British anyway. Give it 50 years and, by the demographics, if you don't change you will be defining yourself by hating an Islamic state instead. It will be Catholicism versus The Caliphate of Westminister! --Triton Rocker (talk) 03:27, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

- In order: Colin Mcrae, Markku Alén, Walter Röhrl and Juha Kankkunen. I have been fortunate to have seen all of these drivers in action. I hope to see Loeb and Hirvonen later in the year for the first time. Bjmullan (talk) 22:44, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Did you know? Henri Toivonen, Colin McRae and Richard Burns is the deceased rally driver. I see Toivonen's death by a fatal crash during rally in 1986 and McRae's death by a helicopter accident. --Gtabigfan2010 (talk) 10:00, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Japanese Grand Prix, featured on the Main Page.
The 2008 Japanese Grand Prix (formally the XXXIV Fuji Television Japanese Grand Prix) was a Formula One motor race held on October 12, 2008, at the Fuji Speedway, Oyama, Japan. It was the 16th race of the 2008 Formula One season. The race, contested over 67 laps, was won by Fernando Alonso for the Renault team from fourth position on the starting grid. Robert Kubica finished second for BMW Sauber, and Kimi Räikkönen third for Ferrari. Lewis Hamilton, the eventual Drivers' Champion, led the Championship going into the race, and started from pole position alongside Räikkönen. Hamilton's McLaren teammate Heikki Kovalainen began from third, next to Alonso. At the first corner Hamilton braked late, forcing Räikkönen wide. Hamilton was later given a penalty, and was criticised by the British racing press for overly aggressive driving. Ferrari driver Felipe Massa, Hamilton's principal Championship rival, was penalised after an incident on lap two in which he touched Hamilton's car, causing it to spin. The incident dropped Hamilton to the back of the field, from where he was unable to regain a pointscoring position. Massa later collided with Sébastien Bourdais of Toro Rosso. Bourdais was penalised after the race, and demoted from sixth to tenth position. The penalty prompted widespread criticism from the racing media and ex-drivers. The victory was Alonso's second consecutive win; he started from 15th on the grid to win the Singapore Grand Prix two weeks prior. Kubica held off a determined attack from Räikkönen in the closing laps to take second place. Massa's seventh place narrowed his gap to Hamilton in the Drivers' Championship to five points. Ferrari established a seven point lead over the McLaren team in the Constructors' Championship, with two races of the season remaining.

1/rr
Editors are currently restricted to 1 revert within a 24 hour period at Gaza War. Your reverts are based on talk page discussion and appear to me to be justified but it is still crossing the line technically. You and the other editor should probably self revert your last ones.Cptnono (talk) 10:04, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
Oops. I misread the edit history and the other editor technically did not revert. It was still bad form and he should have used the talk page before tagging and then should have waited for a response instead of reverting. Oh well. So although you were fully using the talk page that second revert was against the rules so if you didn't know here is your friendly reminder. You can;t self revert since he already reverted. D'oh.Cptnono (talk) 10:19, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

Sock puppetry case
Hello, Bjmullan! While you're certainly not a suspect, your name has been mentioned in a sock puppetry case. Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/LevenBoy for more. Thank you :> Doc9871 (talk) 13:54, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
Stansty
Your reference for Archdeacon of Derry states: 166J. Jonathan Edwards, LL. D. a Prebendary of Kilkenny, and Chancellor of Ferns, was installed on February 16. (ff.) He appears in 1679; but I have not learned when he ceased to be Archdeacon. This does not mention Derry but I note it's within a section with a title of "Derry". At the risk of being accused of policy shopping, to claim this referecne supports Archdeacon of Derry is WP:SYN. There are references for Londonderry and for Derry. I suggest you get expert advice on the title he acquired at installation. I'll leave it a couple of days then revert if no definitive reference or expert advice is forthcoming. LevenBoy (talk) 19:22, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
- Perhaps you could supply the references you talk about at either the talk page of the article of Stansty or at Jonathan Edwards (archdeacon). Please do not remove reference material, take it to the talk page of the article. Removal of reference material can be consider as vandalism. Bjmullan (talk) 20:04, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
- Only if the reference is actually a reference. Yours isn't, in that it does not support the point you're making. LevenBoy (talk) 21:08, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
- That's for debate at the talk pages above. Please take your discuss there. Thank you. Bjmullan (talk) 21:11, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
- You mean like you did? No, you have made a change, I applied WP:BRD and you then edit warred to put it back without discussion. You should have proposed the reference at Talk where its inadequacies or otherwise could have been discussed. Now the onus is on you to provide a suitable reference. I will revert it in two days time if you don't come up with anything - so start looking! LevenBoy (talk) 22:22, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
- For the LAST time take this to the talk page of the articles. I have included a reference (as requested), if you are unsure of the diocese where he was an archdeacon I suggest you try page 307 of the book, it's title is "Diocese of Derry" and scroll from there to page 337 (or do you consider scrolling SYN?). The whole book is a list of Bishops/Deans/Archdeacons/etc for all the the diocese of Ulster. If you to not agree with the reference then provide another one at the talk page. I will not be answering any further comments on this subject here. Thank you and good night. Bjmullan (talk) 22:52, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of 2012 Intercontinental Rally Challenge season
A tag has been placed on 2012 Intercontinental Rally Challenge season 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 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Article of the month – Brabham BT49, new Good Article
The Brabham BT49 (pronounced /ˈbræbəm/) is a Formula One racing car designed by South African Gordon Murray for the British Brabham team. The BT49 competed in the 1979 to 1982 Formula One World Championships and was used by Brazilian driver Nelson Piquet to win his first World Championship in 1981. The car was initially designed in 1979 as a short notice replacement for the team's Alfa Romeo-engined BT48, after Brabham team owner Bernie Ecclestone decided to end his relationship with the Italian engine manufacturer. The BT49 was created in only six weeks using elements of the BT48 chassis together with the widely used Cosworth DFV engine. It is a single seater with an open cockpit and exposed wheels. The monocoque chassis is made from aluminium alloy and carbon fibre composites. The car was fitted with controversial hydropneumatic suspension and water-cooled brakes at different points in its life. The BT49 was updated over four seasons taking a total of seven wins, six poles and 135 points. Seventeen were eventually built, most of which survive today. Some are used successfully in historic motorsport; Christian Glaesel won the 2005 FIA Historic Formula One Championship driving a BT49D.

1991 Tooheys 1000
2:14.5 is the current lap record? They've been racing in 2:08's at Bathurst for several years, I'll be re-writing that bit. --Falcadore (talk) 20:29, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- You are so right. Miss read the data! 2:08.4651 is the record but the race record still stands. BTW Wish I could be there! Bjmullan (talk) 20:33, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
British Isles Terminology task force
There are no problems for me about your rollbacks, sorry if it caused problems to this project. I've transcluded this navbox (not the category) on that 2 articles (Pr. of Wales -here- and Irish Free State -here-) because i've found them still listed (not by me) on the navbox. I hope that this misunderstanding was cleared because in my work I always search to avoid to include articles into too much general categories, searching for specific subcategories. Greetings. --Dэя-Бøяg 01:20, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for those erm...reassuring words! It gets worse when you look at the month-by-month edit graph. :( Cs-wolves(talk) 18:01, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Oasis reverted edits
Hey Bjmullan. When reverting an edit, please also warn (or notify) the user you reverted, especially in this article, which is controversial (see this notice (and ban). Cheers - CETTALK 08:52, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
BISE stuff
Such comments by hot-headed editors (like TR or Mick) simple don't phaze me. I'm a tad concerned though, about the possibilty that you've replaced British Isles in an article, without bringing it to BISE first. GoodDay (talk) 14:25, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
- GoodDay what are you actually trying to achieve with you recent comments on the pages of TFWOR and TR? Mo ainm~Talk 14:31, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
British Sky Broadcasting
Some information for interested parties regarding my involvement at the article BSkyB
1. Contrary to the beliefs of some editors on Wikipedia, who may or may not be restricted themselves, I am under no restrictions regarding the addition/removal of the term “British Isles”.
The General sanctions at the British Isles Probation Log states... Any editor who systematically adds or removes the term "British Isles" from multiple articles without clear sourcing and justification, or who edit-wars over such addition or removal, may be added to the list of topic-banned editors. I have not been added to this list.
2. Immediately after making my edit at BSkyB I notified WP:BISE with a clear summary of the reason for my edit. Edit here and the notification to BISE two minutes later here
3. To use the term UK + I instead of BI is not an erroneous error but a statement that can be backed up by references from the Sky Corporate website. To claim otherwise is just an attempt to stir up controversy over a legitimate edit. See here. here, here, here, here, here, here ...
I hope this helps to clear up any misunderstandings. Bjmullan (talk) 20:55, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
- I thought we were suppose to propose such additions/deletions at BISE first. That's why I haven't been making any additions or deletions. GoodDay (talk) 20:58, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Article of the month – 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix, currently undergoing WP:PR
The 2008 Hungarian Grand Prix (formally the XXIII ING Magyar Nagydíj) was a Formula One motor race held on August 3, 2008, at Hungaroring in Mogyoród, near Budapest, Hungary. It was the 11th race of the 2008 Formula One season. Contested over 70 laps, the race was won by Heikki Kovalainen for the McLaren team, from a second position start. Timo Glock finished second in a Toyota car, with Kimi Räikkönen third in a Ferrari. It was Kovalainen's first Formula One victory, which made him the sport's 100th driver to win a World Championship race, and was Glock's first podium finish. The majority of the race was dominated by a duel between Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa, who drove for McLaren and Ferrari respectively. Hamilton started from pole position on the starting grid but was beaten at the first corner by Massa, who passed him around the outside. The two championship rivals began a battle for the lead that was resolved when Hamilton sustained a punctured tyre just over half-way through the race, giving Massa a comfortable lead. The Ferrari's engine, however, failed with three laps of the race remaining, allowing Kovalainen to win.
