"The Falkland Islands Police Force was granted the "Royal" prefix by HM The Queen on 1st January 1992."
Wow, how gracious of her. I wonder what the purpose of such stunts is, other than upholding a superannuated form of government. -- MacRusgail 23:10, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
User:Anisom redirected this article on 30 January stating that it is a WP:COPYVIO of [1]. User:Mrld today reverted this change arguing that this was notable enough to be an article on its own (without addressing the copyright concern). This article is substantially identical to the Falklands government page.
I've had a brief look at circumstances and I note that the Wayback Machine's version of the Falkland Government site from 3 June 2009 was completely different from this page, whereas our article from that time contained many of the phrases and such that are in the current article. This article seems to have evolved to its current point in a way that would not be expected in a copyright violation. So I think it more likely that it is our content being used elsewhere. Any thoughts? If not, I'll leave this note for future reference.

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:FAL-2016-Stanley, Falkland Islands–Stanley Police Station.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on March 11, 2020. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2020-03-11. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks!
