Old Swiss Confederacy territorial expansion by force that failed

Grandson

In 1475, the Swiss invaded the Barony of Vaud and took the castle of Grandson from Jacques de Savoie, the count of Romont and Lord of Vaud. Charles the Bold, an ally of Jacques de Savoie, besieged the castle of Grandson in 1476. The Swiss defenders, believing that they would be spared if they surrendered, surrendered. However, Charles the Bold believed the Swiss threw themselves on his mercy and he executed all 412 Swiss by hanging and drowning. At the Battle of Grandson, a Swiss relief force arriving too late to lift the siege, defeated Charles the Bold and annexed Grandson and its surrounding area to Bern. Grandson was an exclave, surrounded by Neuchâtel and the Barony of Vaud.

Vaud

In 1474, the Swiss, except Unterwalden, declared war on Charles the Bold. In 1475, Bern and Fribourg invaded and occupied the Barony of Vaud which was ruled by Jacques de Savoie, the count of Romont and Lord of Vaud, an ally of Charles the Bold. In 1476, peace was concluded at the Congress of Fribourg (25 July to 12 August). In return for 50,000 florins, the Barony of Vaud would be returned to Jacques de Savoie. However, Bern retained some lands: Orbe, Eschallens, Aigle, Yverdon, by right of occupation and Grandson, by right of conquest. Fribourg, an ally of Bern, retained the remainder of the County of Gruyere that Bern had previously acquired in 1403. Valais, a Swiss associate, retained Lower Valais. Morat, which had been annexed as a condominium of Bern and Fribourg, after the Battle of Morat in 1353, was permanently annexed as a condominium.

Hi, Sleigh, Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, and welcome to the ranks of Wikipedians! My name is BorgQueen, one of very many Wikipedians around here, and let me be the first to welcome you here. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page. And don't worry—you may well have a bunch of questions after that avalanche of info I just threw at you. Yeah, Wikipedia has a bit of a culture and etiquette of its own, but you get used to it!

Additional tips

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

• If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
• You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Using the four tildes to sign your sig is policy whenever you make comments on a talk page or vote on something.
• You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
• You should also consider (if you have not already) creating a user page for yourself, to tell us a bit about you. Don't worry if it's small at first -- most people tend to grow their user pages over a period of time, much like Wikipedia articles. Don't expect everything to happen all at once!
• If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the articles for deletion page. If you think a page should be moved to a different title, please list it at requested moves.
• If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
• If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing.

Bulgaria

I read you have added something about Bulgaria. Are you interested in this country? If so you may ask me questions on its history and geography. And plz tell me your opinion of Bulgaria.--Gligan 10:04, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk page categories

I noticed that your talk page was showing up inappropriately in a couple of chemistry-related categories. I've commented out the categories in your Dibromodiflouromethane section to fix it. Hope you don't mind. --Ed (Edgar181) 21:53, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Journey Page--Don't Stop Believin'

Hi Sleigh; I just wanted to thank you and say "good job" on your recent work on the Journey page. I've edited only one minor item that you changed: although "believing" is correctly spelled as I just did, the way the band spelled it when they entitled the song was "believin'" with the apostrophe for the dropped "g."

[Brunswick-Lüneburg]

In my believe you should change back almost all the changes to Brunswick-Lunenburg. If the changes where made thoroughly even Brunswick would have to be changed to 'Braunschweig' - including the heading. I did think about changing Lunenburg to Lüneburg a while ago and figured out that the than present Lunenburg was authentic to the English Language and one mentioning of Braunschweig-Lüneburg within the article ought to be enough to find it from everywhere.

Celt?

I have used the word celt in the article on Sitakunda Upazila, but it is creating some confusion as the word generally means a group of people, not an implement. If you can clear this confusion, please, leave a note on Talk:Sitakunda Upazila. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 04:11, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ioun stones

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Ioun stones, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:55, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Unwanted a tags in your edits

Hi Sleigh, I've seen, that you tried to introduced text strings like <a class="ktg6us7 8hf8vdu7" href="#"> into Wikipedia:Reference desk/Humanities (here). We see that happening for some time now, but haven't yet found the reason for this to happen. As we already investigated, that those strings don't come from our software, we expect an erroneous browser extension to be the cause (probably one which does search completion). To make us able to find the reason for those nasty text additions, it would be great, if you could let us know, which browser you use (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, ...) and if you know how to look that up, the list of enabled extensions!

Hello, I noticed that you have been changing "US" to "U.S." across Wikipedia, most recently in PayPal. Please note that there is a guideline regarding the above acronym at MOS:ACRO, and your edits often seem to go against the guideline.
