Canberra PR.9
Hi Justin A Kuntz. If something is hidden to 2082 it might be the RAF Canberras from Chile. Feel free to delete them if it's bad Wiki policy. http://www.spyflight.co.uk/chile.htm contradicts RAF and Britain's Small Wars, but I don't know the credibility of spyflight.co.uk. --Regards, Necessary Evil (talk) 23:54, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks.
Dear Justin, Just a note of thanks for your work to protect the improvements to the South Georgia article that we achieved consensus on. Michael Glass (talk) 09:53, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
An ungentlemanly act :)
Hi Justin. Even if Misplaced Pages has a commandment: "Be bold", I should have to discuss with you before reverting your edit on "Many Branch point", given our collaboration in the past. Frankly, I automatically though that the editon's author was Kernel Saunders, who some time ago expressed concerns about this article. My apologies for the confussion, and althought I keep my point of view on the infobox issue, I accept the majority view. Thank you.--Darius (talk) 17:34, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Sir Tristram
To be frank, I am pretty ticked off that you made this into an ANI incident. If you had made your points to me first, I would have freely admitted (as I have done in the ANI thread) that I made a mistake and we could have moved on to important stuff. Issue resolved. – ukexpat (talk) 21:25, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

History of Gibraltar
Hey, I've read the comments you left in my talk page. Not that I share everything that Té & Kriptonita has said, but Gibraltar articles clearly aren't neutral. At least, they lack the Spanish POV as you recognise by "not allowing the pro-Spanish viewpoint" (even if it is sourced and has been included -ephemerally- by many editors). That is: you include the legitimate Gibraltarian viewpoint and sistematically remove the Spanish one. You might not share it, but it exists and should be represented as such.
Besides, I have to admit that the last edit you made to the article about the History of Gibraltar is quite even-tempered. I just added 2 references (from the Official Gibraltar Website), not for POV-reasons but out of interest about Gib (yes, I am quite interested in your city, I like it!) and they were quickly reverted even considering their source. I have contributed also in the "Strait of Gibraltar" article (just a bit). Check my POV-agenda! Cheers. Cremallera (talk) 10:22, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Do as you wish but... Tireless issue belongs to the "History of Gibraltar" article. Acerinox accident does not, even if you feel that by including it you contribute to "neutrality". The Tireless was repaired at Gibraltar by governmental decision (out of necessity), an accident in a stainless steel manufacturing processing plant has nothing to do with the government, but the wastes were also decontaminated and storaged properly, of course, under scrutiny of the Spanish officials. See you. Cremallera (talk) 10:42, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Under the scrutiny of Spanish officials who failed to ensure adequate safeguards, it puts the Tireless incident into context. BTW there is no need to duplicate posts on multiple talk pages. Justin talk 11:12, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- The scrutiny of Spanish officials was after the accident. It is no good to Acerinox's interests to suffer an accident. They had safeguards. The safeguards failed, resulting in an accident. There are industry accidents in every industrialised country. Even in those that are not Spain. Cremallera (talk) 11:33, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Whereas the British did it before the fact and avoided an accident. I think the point is made. Multipe posts again? Justin talk 13:00, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Because repairing a nuclear submarine of your own is a planned operation, while an accident is a fortuitous event as the word accidental suggests. See you (soon, I guess). Cremallera (talk) 13:09, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- An accident has a chain of events leading up to it, break the chain it never happens. Accidents are not fortuitous and in the case referred to was down to inadequate safeguards. It was a preventable accident, negligence would be a better word. Justin talk 13:12, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- "Para tí la perra gorda" roughly translates into "you are not right but I give up, as it doesn't really matter". I do not insult people by principle. See you, Justin. Cremallera (talk) 16:18, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Ah. I'm afraid local idiosyncratic uses of language tends to develop issues. I got heat in the past for using the term 'Silly buggers' to mean doing something silly (As in, lets stop playing silly buggers). Things that don't translate literally are always a bit iffy. --Narson ~ Talk • 19:08, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- I speak Spanish, badly considering my mother is Spanish, I didn't recognise that. I also asked a friend who is also half-Spanish, he translated it as the Spanish equivalent of "yours is the ugly one" if you get my drift. I never use idioms, its too easy to get confused. And btw he has resorted to insults, not to mention raising the temperature unnecessarily. Justin talk 19:16, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
- Just out of curiosity, would you mind to indicate how have I resorted to insults? Have a nice day. Cremallera (talk) 20:24, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
