-==Edit warring: [[Emma Watson]]==
-Yesterday I edited the above page because the first part of her dual nationality was stated (incorrectly) as "English". As I have pointed out, this is wrong because England is not a nation; it's a country, one of the constituent countries of the nation of Great Britain, and the corresponding nationality is thus "British". (This is a common error, but the fact of it being common doesn't make it any less an error.)
+:
-Despite this, [[User:Jack "BtR" Saxon|Jack "BtR" Saxon]] has reverted the edit (and re-reverted my correction), claiming that "English is a nationality". Which is nonsense; '''England is not a nation''', and '''only nations have associated nationalities'''. It would make just as much sense to claim that "Londoner" is a nationality.
-I think someone should have a few words with him, and ask him to get his facts right before any further editing. — [[User:RobertATfm|RobertATfm]] ([[User_talk:RobertATfm|talk]]) 14:39, January 5, 2015 (UTC)
-As a neutral party, pointing out:
-: Per [http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/nation#Usage_notes Wiktionary]:
-: Usage notes
-:: ''(British) Following the establishment of the Scottish and Welsh parliaments, England, Scotland and Wales are normally considered distinct nations. Application of the term nation to the United Kingdom as a whole is deprecated in most style guides, including the BBC, most newspapers and in UK Government publications.''
-: And [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/nation Dictionary.com] defines "nation" as (1) a large body of people, associated with a particular territory, that is sufficiently conscious of its unity to seek or to possess a government peculiarly its own, or (2) the territory or country itself.
-So I think "English" ''could'' be a valid nationality. --<span style="border: 2px blue solid; background-color: blue;">[[User:Cubs Fan2007|<font face="Comic Sans MS" color="red">'''Cubs Fan'''</font>]] [[User talk:Cubs Fan2007|<font face="Comic Sans MS" color="white">'''(Talk to me)'''</font>]]</span> 19:28, January 5, 2015 (UTC)
-:The Oxford English Dictionary states that a nation is a group united by factors that include language, culture, history, or occupation of the same territory and the Office for National Statistics found that 58% of people in Britain described their nationality as being English. -- [[User:Jack "BtR" Saxon|Saxon]] 19:44, January 5, 2015 (UTC)

-:Gave a warning since they've only done a couple of minor edits. If they do any more though, they'll get blocked. - [[User:Nick O'Demus|<font face="Monotype Corsiva" size="4" color="FF8000">Nick O'Demus</font>]] 06:21, April 14, 2015 (UTC)

-Please block the user and delete the image of a ceiling fan from [[:File:Albus Dumbledore (HBP promo) 3.jpg]]. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] ([[User talk:Mike Rosoft|talk]]) 05:10, April 19, 2015 (UTC)

-==Trouble maker==
-Could someone have a look on the article [[Harry potter]] which is a redirect page to [[R.J. Lupin]] which is already a redirection page and [[User_talk:Harry_granger#YOU_LOOK_LIKE_RAT|my talk page]]? Seems [[User:Potatomasher1|this user]] has a problem! I also reverted page blanking vandalism on the article [[Harry Potter]]. <span style="border:1px solid #E56717;">[[User:Harry granger|<font style="background:#F75D59;color:gold;">&nbsp;'''Harry granger'''&nbsp;</font>]][[User talk:Harry granger|<font style="background:yellow;color:black;">&nbsp;''' Talk&nbsp;'''</font>]]<font style="background:yellow;color:;">&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Harry granger|<font style="background: #99CCFF;color:#993300;">&nbsp;'''contribs'''</font>]]<font style="background: #99CCFF;color:#993300;"> </font></font></span> 15:58, April 27, 2015 (UTC)
