	==Bentley Continental==

	I hate crowded and confusing pages. ], ], ], all needed to be done. Nice to be appreciated! --] 23:57, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

	== Lincoln Mark ==

	Actually, yes- its's Lincoln Mark (look on Edmunds or ebay for a quick check) but the the car is also referred to as the Mark Series. The Mark or Mark Series was a Lincoln model where every generation had a different roman numeral attached to the name (Mark V = Fith Generation Mark). Obviously it is not appropriate to have a different article for the Mark III, Mark VI, etc... This is how Mark articles used to be organized and it was too confusing. Thanks for understanding. ] 18:53, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

	:A bit of googling and it seems that the first of the Continental line was never called the "Mark". This is consistent with British use of the word "mark" to indicate the number in a series of generations of a car of the same name. BUT - the first of the line is only called "Mark 1" ''retrospectively'', after the introduction of its replacement. For example, we are now on VW Golf Mark 5 (Mk. 5 for short), but the original Golf was only called "Mark 1" after its replacement came out in 1983. Regarding the Lincoln specifically, the following extract is from http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hall/3703/3948mark.html

	::"From my first sighting of the 1946 Lincoln Continental in my hometown I began to read about the development of the Lincoln Continental. These first were not originally designated "Mark I," rather just Lincoln Continental. In fact the 1940 model carried the name ''Lincoln Zephyr Continental'' and was offered in two models, a cabriolet (see the picture at the beginning of this document) and a coupe."

	:So, what seems to have happened is that at some point Lincoln illogically dropped the "Continental" name, confusing people into thinking that the "Mark" was the basic name of the model. Since the term "Mark Series" does indeed seem to be in wide use, unless you object I'll move the "Lincoln Mark" page to "Lincoln Mark Series". Of course, each of these cars in the series needs its own page, which will solve the problem for good. -- ] 19:35, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

	Renaming the article from Mark to Mark Series makes sense. I don't however understand the connection you have drawn between the Golf MK5 and the Lincoln Mark since Mark really was the cars name. Concerning the Continental, as you may have known, the 1956 Continental Mark was not actually '''not''' manufactured by Lincoln. At this time, Continental was its own brand (together w/ Edsel). Lincoln adopted the Mark name in 1968 and used until 1998 for its line of personal luxury coupes adding a roman numeral for each gengeration, and yes, strangly enough there never was a "Mark I," neither was there a Mark II. Lincoln somehow wanted to connected the '56 Continental Mark's ultra-luxury prestige to the Licoln Continental Mark by calling it the Continental Mark (until the Mark VII) and by starting at roman numeral "III" (Implying there was a previous generation, even though there really wasn't any!).

	The Continental four-door sedan who started production in the 40s shouldn't be confused with the Continental Mark coupe; giving both cars, at least partially, the same name was a marketing move-nothing more. Thanks. ] 04:47, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

	I moved the "Lincoln Mark" article to Lincoln Mark Series, because yes series is better. Since I am a Lincoln Lincoln enthusiast I can assure that the Mark Series were not part of the Continental. Yes until the VII generation it was called the Lincoln Continental Mark, but the Marks were a model in their own right. Merging those two pages would be like merging the Jaguar X-Type with the XJ just because they both have the letter "X" in them. The Mark was Lincoln's personal luxury car from 1968 to 1998. The Continental was the flagship sedan from 1946 to 1980, then mid-level from 1981 to 2002. Of course, every car name is marketing; what I was trying to explain is that Lincoln called it the Continental Mark to make poeple think of the 1956 Continental Mark (which wasn't a Lincoln!) because that car was at the time as expensive Rolls-Royce; Lincoln thought- "let's take that name so our new '68 coupe sounds like that ultra-luxury car from 1956. By generation VII Lincoln however decided that adding Continental as a suffix did help the prestige anymore, especially since the car was most often reffered to as just the mark; so they drop it. Let me also reassure you that the 1956 Continental Mark was not a Lincoln; at this time there was a Ford subsidary called Continental (1956-1958). Also please consider that the name Mark does not have any meaning in this case, unlike in the UK (as you mentioned above) it is not used as a synonym for generation here- its just a name. If you any more questions let me know ;-}. Thanks, Gerdbrendel 21:59, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

	==St. Paul's tomb==
	I wonder if we can negotiate? The subject you introduced had already been inserted by someone else and deleted simply because the particular editor had already inserted it in the article on St. Paul's Basilica. I inserted a cross-reference so that those who wished to know more could click and find it. when I deleted your re-introduction of the same section, having inserted a parenthetical reference to the excavations, I explained why in the summary. The larger point is that there are hosts of issues arising from St. Paul's life and teaching, but most of them are best dealt with by links in order to comply with the WP policy, which seems sensible, that articles should not be overlong. Personally, I am much helped if other editors give reasons for disagreeing. I realise that it is frustrating when your edit is deleted, but since the material appears elsewhere, it does seem to me that its reinsertion is unnecessary. (You may note that this article is cited as a 'former good article'. In an to keep it tidy, much work has been done on shortening it recently.)
