Civil parishes

Hi Barliner, I noticed that you imported Civil parishes in England, thankyou for doing so. I was just wondering if it would be a good idea to import List of civil parishes in Essex, List of civil parishes in Suffolk etc. Groton (talk) 13:30, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've brought over List of civil parishes in Suffolk. I think some of the redlinks need filling in before another linked list is imported. --Bärl iner (talk) 11:53, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thankyou, I'll start creating the villages. Groton (talk) 16:29, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have also created some Cumbrian villages so can you also do List of civil parishes in Cumbria please, thankyou. Groton (talk) 19:30, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Flood

If you're going to be doing lots, consider setting the flag. Regards, EhJJ^TALK 20:46, 26 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, it's been about 8 hours since you stopped editing, but you still have the flood flag on. Just a friendly reminder so you don't start doing non-flood-type editing but forget to unset the flag. Best, EhJJ^TALK 05:09, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Flood flag

Hi. I saw you set the flood flag on yourself and started doing edits with AWB. I think you need to restart AWB if you want your edits hidden from RC. Cheers, NotImportant 14:21, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mind boggles

We have two categories, 'Mind sports' and 'Mental sports', which cover the same concept and should be merged in some way. I would say 'Mental sports' is for preference. 'Mental activities' (which we do not have) is somewhat broader in concept. 'Sports' carries a connotation of competition. Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:49, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mind/mental almost combined by removing double entries. For the others I think there has been too much sub-categorising. Category:Board games covers draughts (the category, which includes checkers as the article), also backgammon and chess. Still tidying up the cats. --Bärl iner (talk) 13:53, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Category redirects for alt. spellings

Do we put up redirects for categories whose spelling varies in English/American spelling? In the article Cainozoic I mention the alt. spelling 'Cenozoic', and everywhere the English (and European) prefix 'Palaeo' is rendered 'Paleo' in the U.S. Example: Category 'Palaeozoic'. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:15, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The redirects are needed, as I have found examples of two categories with different spellings. The category redirect helps housekeeping if nothing else. --Bärl iner (talk) 13:42, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
