Your edits to Postage stamps and postal history of Palestine prompt me to tell you about the Philately WikiProject which you could join if you are philatelically knowledgeable and interested. Thanks for your input. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 21:07, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. thanks for helping out with the Palestine article. Would be glad to talk to you more about why I think the overview (Israel and Palestine) article is useful, given the complex history and postal authorities for the area. Thanks. Feel free to reply to my Talk page. HG | Talk 21:21, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am happy to see you joined up, so welcome to the Philately WikiProject. Hopefully you have a good time, start many new articles and can contribute lots to the existing ones as we need that. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 21:37, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. Thanks for adding more info to the PNA article. Hopefully I'll work more myself on this set of articles within the month. Be well, HG | Talk 13:26, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. If you are willing and interested, you can put in an email address (under "my preferences") so that other editors can contact you that way. (You can set up an anonymous gmail or other forwarding account for this purpose.) Let me know if you decide to do so, ok? Take care, HG | Talk 14:48, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That was an interesting edit on List of postal services abroad, classifying Israeli POs in Palestine as POs abroad. I am not so sure many Israelis would agree with that! ;)> ww2censor (talk) 21:41, 13 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Whether some Israelis agree or not: post offices controlled by Zahal or Israel Post in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, Gaza, Golan, and Sinai are just that (as it says in the intro of that page): "occupying military powers to establish postal services in the occupied country." I don't think any reasonable mind can object to that. Let's see whether a discussion opens....Bleddynefans (talk) 07:26, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. In the Postal History article, I noticed this: "All postal facilities had the status of relay stations, and letters received their postmarks only at the Beirut post office. Markings from Djebel Lubnan have also been discovered, and are believed to have been issued by a relay station at Staura (Lebanon)." I added emphasis on "only" because it seems to be incorrect, since the following sentence shows that another office also used postmarks. But perhaps I'm missing something? thanks, be well, HG | Talk 03:28, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a discussion about getting more people involved in Philately on Wikipedia. Join the discussion and share your thoughts here. ww2censor (talk) 16:45, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I need to ask you why you separated the sources and references into separate sections in both

BTW, I an going to section off the Ottoman post offices and rates also, but would like your input as to the naming we might use. List of Ottoman post offices in Palestine and List of Ottoman postal rates in Palestine or List of post offices during the Ottoman rule in Palestine and List of postal rates during the Ottoman rule in Palestine? Thanks (I post in one place to keep a discussion together, so am watching this page for a while). ww2censor (talk) 19:34, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice additional text. Thanks ww2censor (talk) 15:08, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll have to add a few references; soon, if time allows. Bleddynefans (talk) 15:11, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It already look great. BTW, what are your thoughts about the previous post on the names of the other post office and rates lists? ww2censor (talk) 15:24, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry! Didn't realize I hadn't answered yet....

• Separating Sources & References: I just follow general practice on PHOP and other pages; to me this way it looks much neater; just MHO. On the two spinoff pages it wouldn't make much difference, to be honest, on the main PHOP both lists are so long that I strongly prefer the current separation there.
• Spinoff names: List of Ottoman post offices in Palestine and List of Ottoman postal rates in Palestine are fine with me; List of post offices during the Ottoman rule in Palestine would include foreign POs, and it's too long...
• PS: For
  List of post offices in the British Mandate of Palestine I'd acutally prefer List of post offices of the British Mandate of Palestine or List of post offices during the British Mandate of Palestine. Bleddynefans (talk) 15:53, 23 August 2008 (UTC)[reply

List of Ottoman post offices in Palestine and List of Ottoman postal rates in Palestine are done and may need a review to see if I missed any references or sources. The main article might still need a short summary paragraph that I hope you will provide. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 05:10, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've done some edits on the three pages concerned today. Result: List of Ottoman post offices in Palestine has somehow lost its pure list-character. Maybe I moved to much info??? Bleddynefans (talk) 17:27, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With the amount of prose now in the article it might more appropriately be renamed as Ottoman post offices in Palestine. ww2censor (talk) 15:53, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. I was slightly confused at this edit as it references a date that has not yet passed. Could you clarify that? Thank-you. Seraphim♥Whipp 10:40, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to confuse the date a UK chart gets published (Sunday) and the date that chart is actually dated (the Saturday after publication). This has been UK tradition since 1960. So last Sunday's Top 40 is officially "The Official UK Singles Chart for the week ending 30 August 2008". Have a look here: [1]. Bleddynefans (talk) 17:51, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Stop changing the capital of the Paletstinian Authority to Jerusalem. Jerusalem isn't the capital since it's not under Palestinian authority or sovereignty, not de facto or de jure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fipplet (talk • contribs) 10:48, 1 September 2008

I tell you: stop vandalising that page. There's a discussion now underway, any serious attempt to clarify that disputed section is welcome.

PS: you claim that Israel has de jure sovereignty over East Jerusalem?Bleddynefans (talk) 09:23, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is unnessesary to reference every single song with the same citation. All it needs is one citation at the top of the UK section, just like it is for every other chart. There's no need to give that chart special attention. MiTfan3 (talk) 17:56, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You're problem is this: the source you reinstated at the top of the listing does not list any chart place outside the Top 40, so you will not find a chart position for three of the last four singles (those that failed to make the UK Top 40).

By deleting my references you have should have also deleted those chart positions itself, because they are now unreferenced. Bleddynefans (talk) 08:19, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You think that my claim, which isnt bullshit, it can be confirmed with this:

Check this please:

Clones (song)#Claims about #1 in the Download chart. It remains un unvalidated claim, unless you reference your sources. Bleddynefans (talk) 08:40, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply

If i put that in there myself, i wouldve referenced it. but since there was no reference on that claim, i couldnt find a vaulable source. i also think its important, so i put a website that kind of went along with what i said on the #1 chart. i agree it that it sucked as a reference. --J miester25 (talk) 16:51, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I was checking

Try these very reliable sources:

There are other sites, like achart or everyhit.com or polyhex.com, but they don't all cover full Top 200 charts.

ChartsPlus have an index to their issues here: [5]

Hi. I declined your CSD tag on

Thanks a lot for the chart positions of the 1st 2 album. Where do you get the info? I'm a bit of a chart nerd so would be very interested to have a look at the source. Hope you don't mind but I changed the date formats back to match the format of other dates in the article. Let me know about the charts stuff though, thanks again

Your participation in the contest and contributing articles on British women from your area or wherever would we much appreciated. Thanks.
