citation at the end of the list. The reference in question is usually a newspaper report of the ceremony listing the winners. So I didn't think it necessary to put the same footnote after each winner's name. Maybe I should? The summary list at the top of the article is drawn from the individual years' reports further down. Perhaps I should also add the same list of references to these?

includes a lot people who never lived in South Africa, but who opposed apartheid from afar. Cleeve was the exact opposite. Am I pedantic to suggest that the sub-category is being loosely interpreted? Genuine anti-apartheid activists such as Trevor Huddleston are included along with people like Bruce Springsteen and Idi Amin! Not your doing I know. Just venting my frustration.

927:'s national categorisation from British to Irish. Don't know who often you may have done similar things in other articles. Please note that Potter was born in Belfast in 1918 and therefore had a UK passport. I know that "British" may include England, Scotland and Wales, but not Northern Ireland. Yet I think in this case a British category is not wrong. 536:

I'm sure it wasn't your intent to edit war, but it might have been better to have opened discussions on the talk page yourself before adding another name to the list after seeing the edit summary. In any case, I've tagged the article section as an example farm and have raised a discussion on the talk page if you'd like to join in!

Yes to the first question, if you mean publicly opposing apartheid. While he lived in South Africa he was a vocal opponent of apartheid. That's why he had to leave. He may have remained opposed to apartheid after that, but he did not, as far as I know, continue as a public activist. This sub-category

Hello Perce. I removed your edit because you did not cite any source and I could find no authority to suggest that your edit is valid. You have since re-edited the article, this time citing the ODNB. However, all the subjects in this dictionary are dead and, because he is still alive, George Morrison

Hi again. I changed my mind. Actually, you are right. A few minutes ago I asked "Ser Amantio" to stop installing "British" categories where Irish people are concerned. Ireland may have been part of the United Kingdom, but it certainly never was "British". I will delete those British categories in all

Hi, Jim. It's actually a good article (well done) and I was glad to see it there, years ago. Although the article needs citations, I don't dispute any of the contents, which are accurate. It's just that the citations are missing for what I described as the "bulk" of the article, by which I mean most

I reverted your edit because the new cateogory does not seem appropriate. Cleeve opposed apartheid when he lived in South Africa between 1948 and 1954. That's what led to him leaving the country and settling in Ireland. He was never a public opponent of apartheid after that. So I don't think he fits

Hi there, I saw you ignored my edit comment regarding a revert of a previous edit made to this article. The notable alumni list is growing into an example farm. Actually, it already is one. I've not reverted your new addition to this list, but have instead raised the issue on the article talk page.

Thanks for your comments. I suspect the longevity and success of the Jacob's Awards was entirely due to Frankie Byrne. When she died so did the award show. What an amazing woman she was. I think I see why you added that tag to the article. When I listed the winners for each year I stuck a single

Hi. Yes, I reverted your edit in which you added the adjective 'British' to the introduction of this article. Although born in England, Acton was from an Anglo-Irish background and spent most of his life living in Ireland. Perhaps you added 'British' to the descriptor because of Acton's place of
