Royal Standard England[edit]

Hi. I've returned this flag on the List of British Flags article to the 'Historical' 'Royal Standards' section. Unless you can do better than I in finding a reference stating that this flag has an official contemporary use in its own right, then the Historical section remains its correct location. I've spent hours online trying to find a source which states that it is used in an official capacity, but other than in the form shown for the Duchy of Lancaster (defaced) and where quartered as part of the Royal Standard(s) of the UK, I can find no other contemporary official use for the flag displaying the three lions, without any addition or defacement. I wish you luck in your hunt for a source as I'd very much like to think that one might exist, but until it can be found and a contemporary use for this flag confirmed, then I'm afraid that in the historical section it must remain. The other versions which are currently used are of course already shown in the appropriate sections of the article. Good hunting! Regards. Endrick Shellycoat 19:32, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

User User:PeterSymonds has wrongly decided this account is a sockpuppet of Mr. Taz. I would like it unblocking. Im sure a simple IP check would have revealed this to him.

Decline reason:

This does not address the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mr Taz/Archive. Sandstein 18:23, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Given the strong likelihood the Mr. Taz and I live in the same country it is hardly surprising that some of our edits coincided on just three days – but never in regards to the same page. It is true that we both have an interest in British flags but that is as far as it goes. Further, there has been no disruptive editing or account abuse on my part so even in the case of me being a sockpuppet the block is unfair.

Decline reason:

"One user, one account". It's that simple. It doesn't matter how you edit with the two accounts. And on the whole, I find your "what an amazing coincidence" defense to be spectacularly unconvincing, not in the least because it's hardly original. Then to say "even if I am a sockpuppet" convinces me even further that you are one. — Daniel Case (talk) 17:10, 11 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
