Your name

[edit]

LOL. Seeing your name in the edit history for some North-Wales articles made my day.

--Joe Llywelyn Griffith Blakesley talk contrib 12:25, 2005 Mar 4 (UTC)

P.S. I knew you were real all along; never underestimate the power of human stupidity: that's my motto. ;-)

messing with somebody's talk page

[edit]

you have some nerve dropping a

onto someone's talk page. you categorized my page as being in dispute when it was not. did you consider the outlying ramifications? shall we direct some of your hyperscrutiny back onto you? yeah, i think so. do you like what you did when it's done to you? great! then keep this as written. User:SaltyPig

Don't worry Mrs Trellis

[edit]

I quite understand your concerns, but am sure that the lovely Samantha will come to your aid! A curate's egg 17:40, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

DYK

[edit]
Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Bangor Cathedral, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

I've created a fairly simple Wikipedia:Welsh Wikipedians' notice board (shortcut WP:WWNB) to try to get things started. Please have a look and consider signing on, adding it to your watchlist and helping to make sure any users with an interest in the subject know about it. Also please feel free to add things and to change anything you feel needs changing – I'm not under the impression that I own it! Rhion 19:54, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thanks for your input. As a south Wales inhabitant, I'm mainly concentrating on south Wales articles and am happy to leave the details for north Wales to to people like yourself who are more knowledgeable about the region. I'm only getting these lists started to help fill in any gaps and to get things started. We've got to start somewhere and I'm sure there will be many amendments to come.(Sloman 22:50, 16 June 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Pronunciation of Ynys Môn

[edit]

I know its not easy to write English pronunciations for Welsh words but I have to disagree with "mawn". Is the "a" pronounced as in "apple" or as in "alter"? I was using the actual English word "moan" (as in to grumble or complain). And if anyone can make sense of the IPA they are a better man than I! --maelor 20:00, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gower Beaches template

[edit]

Thanks for pointing out the other beaches in the Gower Peninsula. This template is still in development at the moment. There are actually about seventy named beaches in the Gower, I don't think we will be including them all for now - just the most well known ones. The smaller ones will be added if there is anything interesting to be written about them. (Sloman 12:31, 21 July 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Vorticella and tomatoes

[edit]

Aww, thanks for the comment Mrs Trellis :), love your user page, North Wales must be a happy place.. sbandrews 11:37, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bio-Batch, Bioplastic etc

[edit]

I have done a mega edit of this to make it generic and then moved it to Biodegradable plastic. See what you think - its a bit scruffy at present and I expect some flack too! Velela 15:04, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's looking better. There is a bioplastic article which I will also work on moving into the biodegradable plastic section. I'm sure some flak will be coming, I have already had some with minor removals of links!--Alex 15:17, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I've had a look at bioplastic which seems a commendable article in its own right, separate and different from Biodegradable plastic. The first is made from non-fossil carbon sources, whereas the second, although made from fossil carbon sources includes materials to facilitate biological breakdown. Both articles related but different. I was just wondering why the suggested merge ? Mrs Trellis 22:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Mrs Trellis, the reasoning behind our work on bioplastics and biodegradable plastics originate through User:Callsigns advertising of the Bio-Batch technology and links into anything remotely related to biodegradable plastics. We have no problems with the two different article but we were trying to tidy up the mess that was made. If you have knowledge of the subject I would appreciate and input you can give on disambiguating the two topics. Many thanks --Alex 15:42, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, Mrs Trellis. About your recent edit to Biodegradable plastic, I'd just like to point out that "tons" is perfectly good spelling in the United States of America. So is "metabolize", which you changed in a previous edit to that page. Of course, you also eliminated some genuine mistakes. This is really no big deal, but I thought I'd mention it. Cardamon 23:19, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply on my talk page. I'm okay with tonnes. I have no idea what Callsign's nationality is. Bio-Tec Environmental, to which s/he keeps inserting references, is located in the state of New Mexico. I notice that s/he replied here to my question about copyright by saying that s/he had "written all sources". Cardamon 20:01, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Canolfan Tryweryn

[edit]

I noticed that you have been involved in creating the Afon Tryweryn article, and would like to inform you that I intend to merge the article with my newly created Canolfan Tryweryn article, unless you have any objections. DevAnubis 12:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please post replies in the Talk:Afon Tryweryn page, to save me having to search through all the user's talk pages to find any suggestions. DevAnubis 12:59, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your vote

[edit]

Hi Mrs. Tresllis: I'm slightly confused about your vote at Talk:Yogurt. You voted oppose, which would indicate you want the article at Yoghurt, but then voted "leave it as it is", which would indicate Yogurt. Thanks. —Mets501 (talk) 11:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not to be picky, but do you have a better reason for opposing the change than the fact that the word is "idiosyncratic"? If not, that's OK, but if you do, can you please share it? Thanks. —Mets501 (talk) 18:17, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kowhai Image

[edit]

While I agree with your reversion of the Kowhai image (the earlier one presents excellent and valuable fine detail that is not present in my own image), your comment that it was the promotion of the editors image is incorrect. The image was mine User:Karora and the promoter was User:Kahuroa, so it would be easy to make the mistake from looking at our usernames we are unique individuals both dedicated to improving New Zealand's wikipedia articles and who (it would seem) live at opposite ends of the North Island.

Eastern Gray Squirrel

[edit]

I've reverted your edits on the Eastern Gray Squirrel, the Etymology section states: In the United Kingdom and Canada, it is simply referred to as the Grey Squirrel; as the species is a native of the United States, this article will use the term Eastern Gray Squirrel. If you still have an issue with this could you bring it up on the talk page. Cheers, Jack (talk) 17:06, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gadlys Falls

[edit]

On the List of waterfalls of the United Kingdom page, you added (back on 3rd December 2005) a waterfall called Gadlys Falls, but without citing any source or giving any details. I have searched the Web for it, and found only Wikipedia copies.

  • Where is this waterfall?
  • Is it the small fall on the Dare River at the Gadlys estate in Aberdare (official name appears to be Pwll-y-Gerwyn - see this other picture that shows its proximity to the Gadlys estate)?
  • Is it somewhere else called Gadlys?
  • Is the name officially recognised?
  • Do you have any source that you can cite?

TarquinWJ (talk) 16:30, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK, the appropriate changes have been made to the relevant articles; List of waterfalls of the United Kingdom and Waterfalls_of_Wales. If you can provide evidence of a waterfall that is officially called "Gadlys Falls" that is not the one that is officially known as Pwll y Gerwyn, please re-add it to those articles, along with details of where the waterfall is located, and some appropriate references. Thanks. TarquinWJ (talk) 22:15, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
