Talk:in the name of Her Majesty
The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
Sum of parts. Definition is just plain wrong and is not supported by the example sentences. SemperBlotto (talk) 18:53, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
- Indeed. I wasted some time cleaning it up and moving it to in the name of Her Majesty. Delete DCDuring TALK 19:41, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
- Agreed, but I think that "in the name of the King" or "Stop! In the name of the King!" might be idiomatic, or a cliché. Or else it might just be a retro version of "Stop! In the name of the Law!" Anybody know about that? P Aculeius (talk) 19:46, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
If this appears on ALL British passports, why would it NOT exist? Are you saying ALL British passports are null and void? If this entry exists on this page it insists that all British passports contain an error
Why? Are you going to delete all British passports as well?
Why? Are you editing the new British passport?
If I understand the reasons correctly, the British passport should be changed.
Your argument is not with me, but with ALL British passports. Kelly Craig Walling— This unsigned comment was added by Kelly Craig Walling (talk • contribs).
- Does "in the name of Her Majesty" mean "indefinitely" in the Dr. Strangelove quote: "[Indefinitely] and the continental congress, get over here and feed me this belt."? You're just guessing what it means, and trying to bluff us into letting you get away with it by a red herring about it appearing on British passports. The text you quoted also includes things like "Her Britannic", "of State Requests and", "requires in" ,"all those whom it", "concern to allow the", "without let or". By your argument, we HAVE TO!!!! have entries for those, too.Chuck Entz (talk) 02:48, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Kelly Craig Walling Indefinitely abandon your treacherous plot of getting this definition through! that guy 06:39, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
- I really couldn't find any excuse to keep this random collection of words. Deleted SemperBlotto (talk) 07:07, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Being on a passport doesn't automatically make it dictionary content. Equinox ◑ 14:18, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
