User talk:Editor FINCongratulations on your job. I do appreciate your precision and your way of improving Wikipediaby creating new pages.
Hi, Deletion proposalJust drawing this one to your attention, which may be of interest. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Hubertus,_Hereditary_Prince_of_Saxe-Coburg_and_Gotha Engleham (talk) 09:22, 26 January 2016 (UTC)
Editor FIN, please note that AFDs are not polls. As Wikipedia:Articles for deletion states, "The debate is not a vote; please make recommendations on the course of action to be taken, sustained by arguments" and the same applies to all deletion debates. Any statement that just consists of "Keep" or "Delete" with a signature can easily be dismissed by the admin making the final decision (as yours was at the Lady Rose Gilman discussion). Try, in the future, to present persuasive reasons in line with policy or consensus as to why the article/template/category/whatever should be kept or deleted, and try to make sure it is an argument based on the right reasons. — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 07:11, 1 February 2016 (UTC) Are you nuts?

I'm persuaded by your argument, and would have reverted my last edit myself. J. D. Crutchfield | Talk 15:57, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
Move requestGreetings! I proposed a move at Talk:Julian Byng, 1st Viscount Byng of Vimy (moving it to Julian Byng, per WP:NCPEER and WP:COMMONNAME). I would like to hear your opinion on it!--The Traditionalist (talk) 13:18, 17 March 2016 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for April 11Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kamalesh Sharma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Indian. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

DYK for John Boyle, 15th Earl of CorkOn 27 July 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article John Boyle, 15th Earl of Cork, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that despite Lords of Ireland being ineligible for election, the Earl of Cork was elected to the British House of Lords? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/John Boyle, 15th Earl of Cork. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, John Boyle, 15th Earl of Cork), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Cantab1985 (talk) 03:03, 18 August 2016 (UTC) ContentionHi FIN. Re: "Reverted, because peers are known by their titles in the House of Lords, not by their names.", I wonder whether I might contend that Wikipedia articles are not in the House of Lords? DBD 09:39, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
ApologyI owe you an apology regarding my edit summary for Shami Chakrabarty. I said that she was gazetted on 16 August not 6 September. I hadn't noticed that she was gazetted twice - once for intention to appoint and again when the full title was established. Sorry. Apuldram (talk) 17:01, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
ChakrabartiRegarding your edit today here: In the new reference, Chakrabarti is mentioned on page 2, but page 1 (19331) comes up on the screen. I suggest changing the ref to 19332. I would do that myself, but because of my previous mistake I'm mentioning it here instead. Apuldram (talk) 12:23, 13 September 2016 (UTC)

By-elections in the House of LordsYou appear to have established a practice of describing the by-elections as being held over the period in which votes are to be received.The consistent practice of the HoL website is to treat the day the votes are counted and the result announced,not the advance voting period,as the day on which the election "is held".--L.E/12.144.5.2 (talk) 01:15, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
It looks like your crosstable on the latest election omitted the conclusive ballot after the elimination of the Earl of Stockton,where Lord Colgrain won with 143 votes.This is it seems a record number of counts. I had expected based on past whole-house elections and the convention of choosing a peer of the deceased peer's party that Lords Stockton and Harrowby would be the leading contenders,but this was not so...curious that when Lord Lloyd-George of Dwyfor and Lord Harrowby were both eliminated at the 23-vote stage,Lord Stockton picked up nine votes from Lord Lloyd-George (the last Liberal Democrat contender) but only one from Lord Harrowby(a fellow Conservative).--L.E./12.144.5.2 (talk) 17:13, 28 March 2017 (UTC)
