Hmm. That was an honest misreading of a diff screen on my part (I thought the change was to 6 rather than from 60), and I apologize for it. However, I don't know why you felt it necessary to question my comprehension—especially five days after the fact. We all make mistakes, eh? -- Hadal 04:36, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hi Adraeus. I just wondered whether your offer for me to join Inquiry was still open? You said on my talk page that you were thinking of taking it off-site, but I haven't heard anything since. Let me know if I can still help you :) Aaarrrggh 12:59, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
I'm letting you know that I've just nominated myself for bureaucratship for the second time. If you didn't care to know about this, I apologize for the inconvenience. Andre ( talk) 02:40, August 27, 2005 (UTC)

Given that there was only one John, and that ordinals do not have to be used if there is only one of them, eg John of England, please consider casting a second simultanious vote for any other option you think correct. Philip Baird Shearer 18:13, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi, Adraeus. Thank you so much for your support on my bureaucratship nomination. Unfortunately, it didn't pass, but I intend to run again soon. If you'd like to be informed next time around, please let me know on my talk page. Thanks again! Andre ( talk) 05:18, September 4, 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I've beend doing some tidying up of some of the English monarchs and have noticed you have set yourself a task of converting a bunch of early kings to the above infobox. I've been thinking along those lines as well. The kings William I of England to Henry VI of England use the Infobox Monarch template. I'm not sure if we could standardise on a single template, since different info is available for the earlier kings. This is just to let you know I'm thinking about the issue and may be able to refine your template, so you might not want to rush into the edit yet. Martin.Budden 23:29, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
Here's what I've done, there are now four compatible templates:
Template:Monarch Basic Used for early English monarchs, so they can be templated in their curent style. Once all templated may change to Infobox Monarch Basic, if desired
Template:Monarch Basic no image as above, but when no image is available
Template:Infobox Monarch Basic Infobox style of Monarch Basic
Template:Infobox Monarch As Infobox Monarch Basic, but with more paremeters (currently most commonly used), not quite compatible with Infobox Monarch Basic, but I have a plan to make it so without breaking anything.
I've converted some of the early English and Wessex Kings to Monarch Basic. Once they are all converted it should be possible to just change the template to Infobox Monarch Basic and they will all take on the new style, if so desired. I've convered Harold Godwinson to Infobox Monarch Basic, and may do one or two more tonight.
My plan is to convert Alfred the Great - Edgar of England to Monarch Basic and to later Kings to Infobox Monarch Basic and then eventually swap them all to the Infobox style. Martin.Budden 00:40, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
You've missed the point about the regular (ie non-infobox) templates. They were deliberately designed to look like the non-templated tables used by the early kings, so that they could be added without immediately changing the style of these articles. However they have the same parameter lisk as the Infobox Monarch Template. This means now that the articles have been converted to template, you can just edit them, type "Infobox" in front of "Monarch Basic" and the article will take the new prettier style. The fact that the old ones are ugly doesn't matter, since we're going to get rid of them. Try it on Edgar of England,if you like, and see. The "rank" parameter stops being displayed when you do this, but the rank doesn't really follow a NPOV anyway, since it's not agreed who was the first King of England (there are at least three candidates).
The next step is to make the Infobox Monarch template compatible with the Infobox Monarch Basic template by replacing date1 & date2 with reign (date1 & date2 is not flexible enough, it doesn't deal with multiple or interupted reigns eg Sweyn I of Denmark). Then monarchs using Infobox Monarch Basic can be changed to Infobox Monarch if more information becomes available. Martin.Budden 14:02, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
