I get the feeling that any copyvios I find in your contributions are in fact copies of your own work. To prevent others flagging your articles as copyvio, it might be an idea to put a note somewhere on the web like a discrete corner of http://www.chivalricorders.org to say that Wikipedia has permission to use your work and place a link on

guide to writing better articles will give you some clues. Break the article up with section headings, create wikilinks, create incoming wikilinks ie. links to your articles from existing articles, add pictures, etc. But do keep contributing! -- RHaworth 19:15, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply

from email. My text on chivalric orders has actually been substantially revised and expanded, with many new documents, for Burke's World Orders of Knighthood and Merit of which i am general editor. Inevitably there is a confluence of texts between anything I write. I thought that I could add external links, etc, later.
I have no problem with some kind of credit authorization being given, if you want to include it. How should I do this? -- user:GuyStairSainty 2006 Feb 24

As I said above, place a note somewhere in http://www.chivalricorders.org to say that Wikipedia has permission to use your work. Place a link on user:GuyStairSainty to that note. That will establish that you (ie. the Wikipedia user name) are who you claim to be (not that I really doubt you).

Then in any article that uses a substantial amount of material from chivalricorders.org add a note pointing out that it is used with permission and pointing to your user page. This should be done in the edit summary, by HTML comment, ie. <!-- comment --> or on the article's talk page - preferably all three! This will prevent people tagging you articles as copyvios. Actually, the best way to prevent them doing that is to write in proper Wikistyle in the first place! -- RHaworth 20:13, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I try not to copy but having written these texts myself I may often inadvertently use the same phrases and when quoting from documents the texts are inevitably identical (indeed they must be). Guy Sainty

I see that my birth address is given now as Clayton Priory, Burgess Hill, Sussex. For what it is worth, the postal address of my birth place was Clayton Priory, Hassocks, Sussex - for the entire time my family lived at that house from the 1930s onwards.

The web site of the Royal Academy of Heraldry and genealogy is http://www.ramhg.es/

I leave it to someone else to make these changes since I do not want to be accused of editing an article on myself. http://www.ramhg.es/

Constantinian Order

Hello, and

Constantinian Order, but we cannot accept copyrighted text borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Please see Wikipedia:Copyright problems for more information on this topic, or generally, Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines. Please do not remove the copyright violation notice placed in the article or repost the suspected infringing text. However, if you would like to rewrite the article in your own words, follow the link in the posted notice to create a temporary subpage. If your new article is appropriate, and not a further copyright violation, the reviewing administrator will move that new article into place once the copyright status of the original has been resolved. Happy editing! Ladybirdintheuk 10:40, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply

Fine, but the text that you refer to as copyrighted is my own text, that I have published elsewhere; it seems rather silly to suggest that someone cannot use extracts from their own text.

Dear Mr. Stair Sainty;

I feel that it would be helpful if you reviewed

Hi. Your views, among others, are under discussion at Talk:House of Windsor and Talk:Saxe-Altenburg. Hope you have time to drop and communicate your ideas. Henq (talk) 19:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Guy, about a year ago I wrote an article about a diploma mill by the name of

neutrality. I would much be much obliged if you could find some time to look at the short article and the -not too lenghty- discussions on its talk page and would give your opinion on the talk page whether the article describes the subject without bias and - if it does not - what needs to be added and/or removed to make the descriptions adequate.

It is not appropriate for you to post personal attacks on editors you disagree with

more demanding rules applied to biographies. Rather than posting groundless accusations of bias against editors you disagree with and insisting that your own views be treated as definitive factual determinations, you need to familiarize yourself with the applicable Wikipedia policies and guidelines and follow them when you edit in article space and post on other Wikipedia pages. You've been editing here for more than three years, and have had ample time to learn those requirements; the several notices posted by other editors to this talk page should already have alerted you to the need to do so.

I read this with interest and astonishment - the facts "disputed" are not simply as cited by me on my web site, but are those given in every reputable genealogical publication (Almanach de Gotha until 1944, when it ceased publication, the Libro d'Oro della Nobilta Italiana, the Starke Geneagisches Handbuch des Adels, etc etc) but numerous serious genealogical web sites. Yet this person who repeatedly made changes to the article in question quite obviously had a personal bias in the matter. He, in fact, made comments which were ad hominen attacks.

If Wikipedia is to be taken seriously as a research tool, it is not enough to just accepr that everyone's postings are equal - it is difficult to prove a negative, so when your contributors make statements which are clearly contrary to the actuality and reflect merely personal opinions, to deny the comments of a published expert on the grounds that he or she has also published them elswehere is quite bizarre.

I do not have "written proof" that the Infante D. Carlos gave me the photos, I am vice-grand chancellor of his Order and one of his trusted councillors. I make numerous statements etc on his behalf and have held this position for more than 20 years. This is well known (look at the Order's web site www.constantinianorder.org). I do not have time for all this. If as a senior officer of HRH's Order I cannot send information that at least is accurate unlike so much of what I read about Europe's royal families on Wikipedia then who do you want it from? GuyStairSainty (talk) 07:13, 16 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that's very important information, thank you. If you're authorized to speak on behalf of the chancellor who owns the copyrights, all we'll need for you to do is follow the instructions at {{
OTRS pending
}} and to remove the deletion notice, and it will not be deleted. Hope this works, and sorry for any problems.
Additionally, the reason I nominated the image immediately above for deletion is not because I don't think you own the right to it, but because it appears to have been scanned incorrectly but later fixed with File:Carlos3-Const.jpg. Magog the Ogre (talk) 17:37, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am the vice-grand chancellor and all such matters concerning history, publications on the internet, are my responsibility - the web master of www.constantinianorder.org reports to me. The grand chancellor's responsibilities are quite different. It is therefore my decision whether or not to publish something and where to do so.

So this decision is made by "Stefan " - are you accusing me of lying when I say these pantings ate on my wall and I own them???? This is really outrageous. I own 100s of images of paintings that I own or have owned which could improve many of your articles. What s the point when dealing with vandals who abitrarily remove them ?

What do you want?? I took the trouble to edit this page and I made it clear when uploading the images that both the original photos and the works of art of which they are photos, i.e. the paintings illustrated in the article,. all belong to the Stair Sainty Gallery of which I am the owner. I (quite generously I thought) in completing the forms allowed them to be used as open source. on the forms you ask to use for uploading I stated this very clearly. What else could I do. If tyou want to delete them and waste my time then I shan't bother again - it is time consuming enough to do this, and having taken the time, stated very clearly that I own the images and paintings I cannot possibly see what further info you could need. The editors of Wikipedia seem overly impressed with the authority they claim. None of the images violate copyright since if there is copyright, my company owns it. GuyStairSainty (talk) 18:25, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, the artist died in 1949 without issue. His estate passed to his widow. She bequeathed the archives and many paintings to a family who has now ceded all rights to the Comite Beltran-Masses of which my gallery is coordinator. No droits de suite or any other copyright claims have ever been made.

Some of these images can be found all over the internet, some copied from my own gallery site or other material that I own. I do not complain about this.

So despite this full explanation. Despite the fact that the comité has 100s of photos, all f hem anonymous tat passed in the artist's estate, now controlled by the comité, you are still pedantically refusing yo accept this. I challenge you to produce the name of any one who challenges my rights.

It is incredible. Why does anyone waste heir time? And who appoints people like you to destroy others work? GuyStairSainty (talk) 19:52, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello User:GuyStairSainty I wonder If I could ask you something on the subject of Maria Pia de Saxe-Coburgo e Bragança. Do you have any idea what her birth name or official name was before she adopted the name we know here by? I understood that this name was adopted later in her life. Thank you. Gerard von Hebel (talk) 17:24, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Her real name was Hilda Toledano. She began her attempt at claiming royal status by pretending that her father was Alfonso XIII. When that was denied and proved impossible she began the invention that her natural father was the pentultimate King of Portugal, assassinated in 1908. Because of canon law rules on claiming baptism she was able to pretend on the duplicate certificate, claiming the original had been lost, that her father was King Carlos.

Papal Nobility article

@GuyStairSainty I note the article states there have been no recent creations. However, as you know there have been a lot of rumors that John-Paul created at least one or two which were privately bestowed by Apostolic Letter. The name of one was published in a Google groups posting a decade ago. Do you have any further info with a reference you could add to the article? Engleham (talk) 10:22, 16 August 2016 (UTC) These have never been more than rumours; what did happen under John XXIII and under Paul VI was that some members of the Roman nobility who had succession issues regarding the transmissibility of existing titles did obtain letters from the Sec of State confirming such successions. I have seen forged diplomas conferring Papal titles both during the reign of JP II and Benedict XVI, as well as many forged diplomas conferring the Papal Orders.[reply]

Project News
By Lionelt

Last month's auspicious relaunch of our newsletter precipitated something of an uproar in the Wikipedia community. What started as a localized edit war over censorship spilled over onto the Administrator's Noticeboard finally ending up at Wikipedia's supreme judicial body ArbCom. Their ruling resulted in the admonishment of administrator Future Perfect at Sunrise for his involvement in the dispute. The story was reported by Wikipedia's venerable flagship newspaper The Signpost.

The question of whether to delete all portals--including the 27 Christianity-related portals--was put to the Wikipedia community. Approximately 400 editors have participated in the protracted discussion. Going by !votes, Oppose deletion has a distinct majority. The original Christianity Portal was created on November 5, 2005 by Brisvegas and the following year he successfully nominated the portal for Featured Portal. The Transhumanist has revived WikiProject Portals with hopes of revitalizing Wikipedia's system of 1,515 portals.

Their efforts culminated on January 8, 1956, when all five—Jim Elliot, Nate Saint, Ed McCully, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian—were attacked and speared by a group of Huaorani warriors. The news of their deaths was broadcast around the world, and Life magazine covered the event with a photo essay. The deaths of the men galvanized the missionary effort in the United States, sparking an outpouring of funding for evangelization efforts around the world. Their work is still frequently remembered in evangelical publications, and in 2006, was the subject of the film production End of the Spear. (more...

Eric and Leslie Ludy were 21 and 16 respectively when they first met, English professors suggest that older singles are unlikely to gather hope from their story.

When God Writes Your Love Story: The Ultimate Approach to Guy/Girl Relationships is a 1999 book by Eric and Leslie Ludy, an American married couple. After becoming a bestseller on the Christian book market, the book was republished in 2004 and then revised and expanded in 2009. It tells the story of the authors' first meeting, courtship, and marriage. The authors advise single people not to be physically or emotionally intimate with others, but to wait for the spouse that God has planned for them.

The book is divided into five sections and sixteen chapters. Each chapter is written from the perspective of one of the two authors; nine are by Eric, while Leslie wrote seven, as well as the introduction. The Ludys argue that one's love life should be both guided by and subordinate to one's relationship with God. Leslie writes that God offers new beginnings to formerly unchaste or sexually abused individuals. (more...)

"Faith lived in the incognito is one which is located outside the criticism coming from society, from politics, from history, for the very reason that it has itself the vocation to be a source of criticism. It is faith (lived in the incognito) which triggers the issues for the others, which causes everything seemingly established to be placed in doubt, which drives a wedge into the world of false assurances."
