Orphaned non-free image File:Eurocoin.va.series3.002.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Eurocoin.va.series3.002.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Courcelles 04:16, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Stadium vs Stadia
I do not deny that in many instances the information included on your revert is correct - but stadia is the more correct term given its usage in higher register including government documents, as I have indicated on the talk page. Please undo your revert. Grand High Most Ultimate Supreme Hochmeister of Misplaced Pages, the Universe and all parallel Universes (including Ireland and Wales) (talk) 18:19, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Taoisigh's Irish names
Nothing in Misplaced Pages:IMOS#Naming_people which you mentioned prohibits listing the Irish version of their names, especially since we are talking about the leader of Ireland. I actually bothered to read through that link, sorry...--MacRusgail (talk) 20:25, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Given that the Taoiseach is one of the best known people in Ireland, it certainly does apply here. This is just another example of the petty bureaucracy which infests Misplaced Pages these days and produces no benefit whatsoever.
I didn't move the page to his Irish name, I merely listed what it was. There is nothing wrong with that, and nothing against the IMOS.--MacRusgail (talk) 11:46, 27 May 2011 (UTC)
The plural of euro is euros
Yes, it is. Cheers, -- Evertype·✆ 22:45, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
Repeatedly falsely accusing others of vandalism and abuse of twinkle
Please don't accuse editors of vandalism unless you're sure they have committed it. In particular, avoid using the word in edit summaries (such as "reverting vandalism"), and be very careful about posting vandalism warning templates on users' talkpages. Review the vandalism policy thoroughly before you do that, and see especially the section "What vandalism is not". Note that content disputes are not vandalism, and that good-faith edits of any kind, even if you think them misguided, are not to be considered vandalism. Vandalism accusations without any basis in policy are bad for the climate on the wiki and make constructive discussion more difficult. See also Misplaced Pages:Avoid the word "vandal".. Twinkle is only for reverting vandalism. 46.7.72.149 (talk) 14:39, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
