74: 53: 546:. I've admitted to my mistake and I actually learnt something extra about Knowledge Policy (re non-free images), normally I'd thank you but your manner is so odiously belligerent a compliment might go to your head. You on the other hand have zero humility; you feel the need to deny a blatant fact when it is presented to you; because to you admitting a mistake is a sign of weakness and that really isn't/shouldn't be the case. At the end of the day all I am saying is you should maybe consider the way you revert edits when necessary, you clearly feel threatened by such a criticism. That isn't rational. 458:
be the second time as well. I don't understand why you did this twice in a row, is it a belligerent attitude of "What I'm doing is right, I don't need to explain myself"? Or that you just didn't think/care/you could only see your point of view and not understand why someone else was questioning you? As editors we have a duty to avoid edit warring and we do this through clear communication, this is why I used your talk page and this talk page as well as being a bit clearer then yourself in the edit log. You did not, make sufficient efforts to avoid an edit war, indeed you actively broke

I don't have a failure to understand, once you'd actually cited the policies correctly I could tell that your reversion was in compliance with Wiki policy because there was something to refer to. Just because you might know all the acronyms in this area of Wiki policy does not mean that everyone else
457:
You did not link the policies straight away for others (including myself) to verify that what you were doing was correct, you merely posted a series of acronyms in the edit log repeatedly: If it was an insufficient means of communicating what you were trying to say the first time, then it is going to

I'm not sure the list is accurate for 1945-1951 and possible not also for 1951-1955. From memory of reading, the "shadow cabinet" in 1945-1951 was a grouping of senior ex ministers without speciic portfolios but rather speaking on a variety of topics (though inevitably with a bit of specialisation by

keeps deleting it without giving clear reasons as to why or linking to any policy etc. I will restore the image once more and refer them to the talk page, if he/she reverses it again without coming to the talk page that will constitute an edit war. I can't see any reason for us not to be able to use

OH, a technicality, of course there is a massive difference between 24hours and 25hours and 8minutes...not really. You are basing your argument on a technicality, what you did was still bad practice and had you communicated properly sooner, you'd have only had to make 1 reversion (certainly no more

I've added the note about the term falling into disuse under Thatcher (Howe is given the title 'Economic Spokesman' in 1979 Campaign Guide - the full manifesto). I've also added that there is a claim on the title from Vince Cable. It is pertinent since he now gets credited with it as regularly as

In future when citing policies justifying the removal of sourced material can you please cite the relevant policies properly and when challenged more then once, you should immediately post your reasoning on the talk page, it's how most of us regular contributors conduct ourselves. Indeed you could

Gosh, I've just been concentrating on nonfree content policy compliance for two and a half years, using a standard process and pretty uniform edit summaries, and have done more editing in the area than your account has total edits. No more than one other editor has complained, and he promptly got

I think your inadequate grasp of policy is quite clearly demonstrated by your false accusations that I broke 3RR. Rather than going on tendentiously about your nonconsensus interpretation of policy, you should be reviewing your work with nonfree images and cleaning up whatever other mistakes you

as key contenders to be appointed to the office . Thus I would think Howe did not start until 12 February at the earliest. Carr's departure date is more problematic as it could be argued that all office became vacant on Thatcher's election as the new leader.

in correcting this mistake and that simply wouldn't have been necessary had you gone to the talk page. I hope you bare this in mind in the future. That said I do accept your reversion was correct. It's just you went completely the wrong way about doing it.

then 2). Well done for waiting that extra hour and 8minutes, technically it makes all the difference but in practice it was still bad practice. I really am astounded as to just how arrogantly belligerent you come across on here, it's really quite sad.

I would note that Margaret Thatcher's own memoirs make clear she did not start appointing the Shadow Cabinet until after she had met with Ted Heath on 12 February and after Carr had said he would only accept the position of Shadow Foreign Secretary.

George Osborne. I've also added the note about how media outlets often call him an econmic spokesman. I can find lots of examples, but didnt think it worth bothiering. I thought the title confusion worth clearing up.
676: 614: 828: 795: 762: 199:, which certainly suggests the idea that Butler was "Chancellor in waiting" wasn't current then. Then I don't think Labour introduced the formal portfolio system until about 1955, although I'm not 100% sure. 146:
Hi - this is a funny choice of article theme. The term 'Shadow Chancellor' was invented in the 1980s I believe - it was certainly never used by Howe (who was referred to as 'Chief Economic Spokesman').

Also, the list was missing Ken Clarke, who was Shadow Chancellor for a few weeks after the 1997 election - he did actually give a series of Oral Questions to Gordon Brown.
