heads of state

Hi. Your heads of state by time effort is very interesting. However I feel its too redundant.

In the future, a computer program will simply do it. Why? because your actions are basically answering the question "who were heads of state for each year". And not many people are asking this redundant question. Maybe you were once curious about one year and have just been following your nose to complete the rest of the years.

I think you could refine your question-asking ability toward more deep and dynamic questions.

  • On the other hand, while there are lots of things a computer program will do in the future, we have to make do until someone actually writes that program. Until then, those who want to know will be happy for your lists. - Nunh-huh 18:20, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)
  • Please note that British prime ministers are not heads of state. Rather, they are heads of government. There is a difference. Please put PMs on the heads of government pages (when they're created). -- Jonel 20:57, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up on heads of state. I think it fits well with what I propose. I am not touching post 1950 yet (because its anarchy) but pre 1950 I reckon about 50% or years comply.--BozMo 09:58, 7 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]


Someone has pointed this page out to me on pagelayout: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Years I suggest you check the heads of state stuff there also--(talk)BozMo 17:47, 11 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Bert and Ernie

I saw your addition about "It's a Wonderful Life" - I've always wondered about those names and figured Henson used them on purpose. Just curious: do you have any source for the coincidence? Did he say that in an interview somewhere, perhaps? - DavidWBrooks 12:53, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your help with the Canterbury Tales template :-) Danny 01:08, 18 Sep 2004 (UTC)
