BrownHairedGirl is a Wikipedia admin

I have been an administrator since May 2006. Administrators have access to a few technical features which help with maintenance.

I regard admin powers as a privilege to be used sparingly and judiciously, but if you require the assistance of an admin, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page.

If you want admin help, please do try to explain clearly what you want done, and why, and please do remember to include any relevant links or diffs. I'll try to either help you myself or direct you to a more experienced person if appropriate.

If you leave a new message on this page, I will reply on this page unless you ask me to reply elsewhere.

Follow-up on Civility

I was on vacation, but I just want to follow-up with you. Any progress on the Civility board or other plan for handling incivility problem on Wikipedia? You seemed to be the person who had Jimbo's attention, at least for awhile, some good ideas, and some support among other Wikipedians, including other admins. Just wondering...

I'm not giving up on this, and I hope others - especially others who've been around longer - don't either. Lightbreather (talk) 15:54, 30 August 2014 (UTC)

Add photo of my father to his Wikipedia page (Rex Partington)

Hello! My name in Tony Partington. I am the son of the late Rex Partington and am the person responsible for creating the Wikipedia page dedicated to him. When I first created the page I tried to include a photo - a head shot actually from his Broadway period which was the 1950s - but was unable to. I own all of my father's photos and the rights therein and would very much appreciate some guidance as to how I should, properly and legally, include a photo in his entry. I look forward to your reply and thank you most sincerely indeed. - Tony Partington (Email: tonypartington@gmail.com)Tony (talk) 18:41, 2 September 2014 (UTC)

Thank you, tireless girl who doesn't want to tempt us to stereotype, for your helpful bot, for quality work on categories, such as those for elections and the monuments of the split List of National Monuments of Ireland, and for thinking in the category "constructive suggestions", - repeating: you are an awesome Wikipedian (24 August 2009)!

Parliament of Ireland elections

Hi BHG. I was wondering whether you might have any dates for elections to the Parliament of Ireland, or any idea where results etc could be found? I was thinking of creating a parallel template to {{British elections (1707-1800)}} - is the List of Parliaments of Ireland article any use in determining dates (i.e. using the "opened" column)? Also pinging Chrisdoyleorwell, as they seem to have done some work on Parliament of Ireland-related articles. Cheers, Number 57 15:04, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

polish Nobility

your list is very short, you don't even link it to the polish clans, most of the clan pages have the family names under their clan sites. also princes, barons, counts, etc, are church given titles, a prince is equal to the poorest noble, in every way. nobility was gifted by god, and witnessed by man, a king had the honor of giving a person their paper of nobility, he couldn't give nobility. in a family, a person can be adopted in nobility, be they will be under that family, not under the Sejm. There is a lot of history written to destroy the polish history, if a German or Russian government says anything it not true, the invader must never be given words over the people he invaded. that would be like, saying the rapist words have more value then the woman being raped.

Everywhere online I see these with anything polish, free the golden freedom, when the partition moved in and killed thousands of people, and raped the land, and ruled with a iron fist, how is that freedom? too the Nazi propaganda as some kind of fact. Germany hated Poland 1260? or around there, when the Germans started killing Jews for the black plague, and Poland gave them a safe haven.

Every Man and Woman that is born of a noble is noble, given by god, and even if your not catholic, it truth of szlachta, Poland was a pagan and catholic country for over 500 years, the pagan side was for life, and the catholic was for death, the church did not like it being duality, but having the worlds strongest army, they couldn't change it.

Thanks a displayed szlachcic of the kingdom of polonia. Gutowski — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.175.144.55 (talk) 02:11, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
