Talk:Macfie

Copied from Wikipedia talk:Scottish Wikipedians' notice board[edit]

I noticed a broken link on the Colonsay page to 'MacFie (McPhee)'. I wondered why this fine clan was absent from our midst and did a short search. I came across an orphaned page called Macfie which is a shade peculiar. Perhaps students of clan history (or Tate and Lyle!) could advise as to whether it is worth improving, moving, or perhaps deleting. Ben MacDui Talk 22:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I found mention of MacFie as an Armigerous clan. I think the current Macfie page should be moved to the correct spelling, then maybe someone will see it and add to it. (-- unsigned by Rincewind42)

Hmmm. Definitely a strange spelling. Yep. Let's move it to McPhee where it belongs. -- Derek Ross | Talk 06:20, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ho, hum, MacFie or McPhee? They may be different and in this case I would have thought the former. Ben MacDui Talk 08:09, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have moved it to MacFie and tided up the language; I cannot vouch for the content. It would ideally have a stub mark, but every other clan I checked on had a reasonable amount of information displayed and not being familiar with stubs I left it alone. Awake ye MacPhees!

I see now that to be consistent with the Scottish clans category it should be 'Clan MacFie'. However, now that it sticks out like a sore thumb on the category page perhaps someone with the requisite knowledge will move it along.

Tate and Lyle[edit]

I think the T&L connection should be elucidated Why were they concerned? What was the conncetion between T&L and MacFie's Treacle? Citation? Wwwhatsup 08:21, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
