The highest peak of Shropshire is Brown Clee Hill at 540m ASL. David 09:28, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I think you should be aware that the Stoke-Derby Line is just a part of the Crewe-Derby-Nottingham line and that the entire service runs through from Crewe to Derby with most trains continuing to Nottingham, Grantham and Skegness. There is no separate Derby-Stoke service. Perhaps you would reconsider your latest edit. NoelWalley 12:18, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
I think it was you that asked on Talk:Ottawa Treaty about the 1932 Ottawa Convention. See British Empire Economic Conference. Nfitz 20:41, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
Hello, I am Noel Walley, you and I keep discussing things yet we have never met. Good luck with your studies at Keele University where I employed my computing skills until my retirement years ago. Today I have had some good news medically speaking so I am now pickled in good french wine. Kind regards, NoelWalley 20:35, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
No problem, it's not easy to know that kind of thing. I'll do the same for Joël Robert (now Joel Robert) as well. "Joel" would be pronounced "you'll", while it is actually more like "yo-el" (or geo-el, with a sound like in George). Bye, Fram 14:15, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
In 1904, when the FIM was set up, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was the political entity for which the AutoCycle Union was a founding member. Your change to Great Britain is inaccurate because it refers specifically to a geographical entity that even by your own comment ACU represents just GB (inc. IOM and Channel Islands) does not include the IOM, Channel Islands or Northern Ireland. What you most likely really wanted to refer to was the current political entity of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland but that was NOT the political entity in which the ACU was a founding member of the FIM. I could understand that you might want to refer to the current political entity that the ACU encompasses but that is not what is being stated here.
I don't think it is necessary, as we are recording history here, but perhaps we need to state: "The British AutoCycle Union was one of the founding members but now it is the governing body of motorcycle sport in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland that includes the Isle of Man and Channel Islands."

Referring to our recent mention on this topic you might care to look at this. Cheers ww2censor 20:08, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for cleaning up that small part my main point was it shouldn't be combined with dualsport as it was before. -- Budlight 12:16, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
Hello, when you want to link to the article about something British, please do not link to British, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as United Kingdom or Great Britain by writing out [[United Kingdom|British]] or [[Great Britain|British]].

Your welcome. Simply south 16:02, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Good to see you have joined up. Hope to see lots more of you at the Motorcycling WikiProject. Cheers ww2censor 18:56, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
For lack of historical information the article's been dormant. Glad to see you stopped by! Nice work on the Motocross article. A while back I called Racer Productions seeking assistance finding references and spoke with Jason Weigandt. Nice folks, as you know but they were unaware of references to suggest. The history of hare scrambles hasn't been written. If you can help with the article, please do. Thanks-- Scribner 15:09, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Your post on requested moves found the right place for requesting a move of an article - normally you would want to use {{subst:cfr}} to initiate a noncontroversial category renaming. I created the new category Category:Motorcycle sport for you, but it is currently unpopulated; you'll need to fix the in-article category assignments to point to the new category. (I think there's a bot do to this, or was at one point, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.) Once the existing category is depopulated, it can be deleted.

Thought I was hung out to dry for awhile there. Owe ya. You were the only one from the Motorcycling Project with the cojones to post. Appreciated. Seasalt 11:55, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
And you read FN motorcycle (saw extra link in 'what links here")and added a link. I have to add racing history too. Thanx. The paradox is he could be good for the Russian bikes if he keeps editing. He's actually made some good edits, made some of the puzzling bits clearer. Lifes wierd like that. Seasalt 09:05, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
