You make an interesting point, re my claimed "too obvious to cite" edit about the number of stone faces around the world. But there are plenty of of "obvious but still need to be stated" sentences in wikipedia - the first sentence of virtually every article, for example. I think this is one of them, to show that OMM wasn't uniqute, but it's a judgment call of course. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 21:35, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there.

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Politicians at state or federal level are generally said to have "inherent notability" (admittedly a debatable grounds). Having the red links around helps when someone does get around to creating the article (and it's on the long-term to-do list of WikiProject Australian politics, along with other state MPs), because then whoever created the article doesn't have to go around and guess where all the links should go. Rebecca probably didn't see your revert - I happened to see it first. Does that help? Frickeg (talk) 02:16, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment is inaccurate - it linked to a specific paragraph, apparently because that was merged into the more-interesting Virginia Dare topic.

...I see - you did that. But at the same time, you eliminated most of the text related to Eleanor Dare which was not already in Virginia Dare - perhaps you might want to reread your edits and repair things.

I don't agree with your redirection of these articles, which should have been discussed on the talk page first. Eleanor Dare was the subject of the Eleanor Dare Stones back in the 1940s; there's an ongoing discussion about the ancestry and genealogy of Ananias Dare. Do not redirect them again without consensus, please. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 01:31, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

On one of the genealogy sites devoted to the Lost Colonists, which was referenced as part of the original Wiki article about Ananias. There were some references to books where it was mentioned when I was cleaning up the article about Virginia. There's some interest in the son he left behind and a prior marriage, in addition to what his personal work background was, etc. He isn't one of my primary interests, but the material is there, in written form, if someone cares to dig into it. The Dares and White are probably the most prominent of the Lost Colonists as well, which is why they've got their own separate articles. Virginia is of interest mainly because of the myth and her symbolism. --Bookworm857158367 (talk) 01:47, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
