Moving Southern Ireland (1921-1922) back to its original title
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Southern Ireland (1921-1922) should be moved back to "Southern Ireland" as it was for years. You can contribute to the discussion at Talk:Southern Ireland (1921–22). Frenchmalawi (talk) 17:27, 12 April 2015 (UTC)

Olympic medallist categories (?)
Why do these categories exist?
- Category:English Olympic medalists;
- Category:Scottish Olympic medalists; and
- Category:Welsh Olympic medalists.
No athlete has ever competed in the Olympic Games as an Englishman, Scot or Welshman; the United Kingdom has always fielded a single team for the Olympics, competing as "Great Britain." It's one thing to sub-categorize British swimmers as "Scottish swimmers" or "Welsh swimmers" based on their ethnicity/subnationality (categories that already exist), but it's quite another to classify them as "English Olympic medalists" or "Welsh Olympic medalists" when England, Scotland and Wales, as separate entities, have never competed at the Olympic Games. I would propose to up-merge these three categories to the parent category, Category:Olympic medalists for Great Britain, doing likewise for related categories for "Olympic competitors". Being an American, I thought it best to propose this category merge here first, before doing so at WP:Categories for discussion, and I will defer to whatever the consensus decision here may be.

- If there are enough people that splitting the category up into smaller categories is desirable, that could be the reason. Though they should be called "Category:British Olympic medallists from England" etc -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 21:36, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

"Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject United Kingdom"
FYI Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject United Kingdom (edit | project page | history | links | watch | logs) was recently, in March 2015, converted from being a redirect to Misplaced Pages talk:UK Wikipedians' notice board into being a separate talk page. So notices that once were redirected there (from 2009-2015) can be found in its history Misplaced Pages talk:UK Wikipedians' notice board (edit | project page | history | links | watch | logs) -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 04:45, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
