== Category:British people ==

Hi, well done on all your good work categorising articles. I just thought that I ought to point out there is no need to place articles in the ] when they are also in one of the sub-categories: e.g. ] was in several sub-categories, and it is considered bad practice to duplicate categs in this way. (There are a few exceptions to this rule, but they are rare).

When you are categorising people, it is also a high priority to classify them by date of birth and death. Here are some examples:

;]
*<nowiki>]</nowiki><br /><nowiki>]</nowiki>

;Tony Blair
*<nowiki>]</nowiki><br /><nowiki>]</nowiki>

;]
*<nowiki>]</nowiki><br /><nowiki>]</nowiki>

Hope this helps! --] <sup>] • (])</sup> 14:01, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Vyborg Library

Hello, thanks for your information about the Vyborg Library. Your contributions are appreciated. This article was on my to-do list but I lacked data. I split your additions into a separate article, Vyborg Library, which you are welcome to check. --Ghirla 14:19, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm afraid it was me who got thing wrong. Looking at this picture, I assumed that it is the acoustical ceiling, which I've seen on an old photograph in his book. Or is it another ceiling, in fact? --Ghirla 16:34, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Philosophers

Hey. Thanks for adding the philosophers section to List of Finns. I added a few more from the category, but it still seems heavily infested with redlinks, which is non-optimal considering how long the whole list has become. I also think Eeva-Liisa Manner might fit better to another section. Maybe you can clean it up a bit? Prolog 08:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. It sounds great to have a good list of Finnish philosophers there. Prolog 09:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Category:British people

Hi, well done on all your good work categorising articles. I just thought that I ought to point out there is no need to place articles in the Category:British people when they are also in one of the sub-categories: e.g. Michael Foot was in several sub-categories, and it is considered bad practice to duplicate categs in this way. (There are a few exceptions to this rule, but they are rare).

When you are categorising people, it is also a high priority to classify them by date of birth and death. Here are some examples:

Winston Churchill
  • ]
    ]
Tony Blair
  • ]
    ]
Aderk of Iberia
  • ]
    ]
Lord Lucan
  • ]

Hope this helps! --BrownHairedGirl 14:01, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
