The Bronze Wiki
Quadell has awarded you a Bronze Wiki for your tireless disambiguation work. You may proudly boast of your laurels, but resting on them is discouraged.

This relates to the text on the placement of footnotes which you helped to work out last month; you may wish to comment. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:59, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

State Religion

Please refrain from vandalizing articles. The Catholic Church has never been established in Ireland. User:Personalbest 11/7/07 —Preceding comment was added at 00:19, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Number of Orthodox

Hi Bill. I think it's okay to cite the article by Rev. Fr. Castro as a reliable source. After all, according to http://www.cs.ust.hk/faculty/dimitris/metro/Phil_back_clergy.html, he is the parish priest of the largest Orthodox church in the Philippines. --Pare Mo 01:28, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

I just realized that the source I provided was from basically the same website, my apologies. However, the Orthodox Metropolitanate of Hong Kong and Southeast Asia's URL (http://www.omhksea.org/) redirects there, so I guess there shouldn't be any problems. --Pare Mo 03:07, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

About Spanish in the Philippines

I made the mistake of mentioning the current status of what's going on in Talk:Spanish language (#31) because they were debating of including the Philippines or not. I really regret it!

If you'd like the link to that article: La presidenta perdirá ayuda... Preferably I'd like that news restored to update the world about it, but... I just don't have the will to do it. Idolmonkey 18:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Spanish language

I removed your failed verification tags on Spanish language. With respect to Spanish's status as the second most spoken language by native speakers, this Ethnologue cite clearly ranked it as second, with 332 mil speakers as of 1999. The CIA link was added as more recent verification. If you look in the box under "World" you will see a list of the most spoken languages by percentage of world population: Mandarin (13.69%), Spanish (5.05%) and English (4.84%). These sources verify the text.

With respect to Belize, please check page 7 of the PDF citation. According to the 2000 census, 52.1% of the population speaks the language very well. The text mentioned "native speakers," which as far as I can see is not mentioned in the citation. But I have changed the text accordingly, and it should be OK now.

If you see anything else that you think is wrong with the article, I invite you to raise the issues on the talk page. Thanks! SpiderMMB 18:10, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Question

Hello, I saw that you made an edit on citizenship talk page. I have a question and I hope that you can help me with it: do you know about any western democratic state that can rule out the citizenship from any given citizen for doing a crime other than immigration fraud?
