I notice that the Commonwealth Games website mentions 'Mac' the Terrier as the mascot for the Edinburgh Commonwealth Games. Although they are not mentioned, I remember the 'Nessie Family' during the Opening Ceremony and thought that they were also mascots for the 1986 Games. Could somebody please enlighten me about this. Thanks. Figaro 03:17, 11 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sovereign states

I've put Canada & the United States (aswell as United Kingdom) in the other Year Commonwealth Games articles (which editor Tim has maintained), so why is it being opposed in this particulary article? GoodDay (talk) 12:18, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I wish to point out, that Tim!'s restoration of my edits at Commonwealth Games, 2002 Commonwealth Games & 1970 British Commonwealth Games, were not reverted. GoodDay (talk) 12:48, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
