I do not think you like abovementioned text on the top of the main page. So I would suggest to change the name of Wikimedia UK to http://gb.wikimedia.org in accordance with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1

: Hi Perohanych. I've updated the disambig line at the top of the main page. We've opened a bug request [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20182 here] to see if we can move this site to wikimedia.org.uk, which we're waiting for the WMF to get around to. I really don't think it's appropriate to have the Wikimedia UK webpage at gb.wikimedia.org, as "Great Britain" excludes Northern Ireland. Thanks.

Hi Perohanych. I've updated the disambig line at the top of the main page. We've opened a bug request here to see if we can move this site to wikimedia.org.uk, which we're waiting for the WMF to get around to. I really don't think it's appropriate to have the Wikimedia UK webpage at gb.wikimedia.org, as "Great Britain" excludes Northern Ireland. Thanks. Mike Peel 16:28, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
