More people actually use the term 'Great Britain' to refer to the whole entity, which includes [[Northern Ireland]] rather than 'United Kingdom'. Being very pro-British myself, I use the term 'Great Britain' in the same way that I use the term '[[British Commonwealth]]'. - ([[User:Aidan Work|Aidan Work]] 20:26, 18 February 2007 (CST))

Great Britain vs. United Kingdom

More people actually use the term 'Great Britain' to refer to the whole entity, which includes Northern Ireland rather than 'United Kingdom'. Being very pro-British myself, I use the term 'Great Britain' in the same way that I use the term 'British Commonwealth'. - (Aidan Work 20:26, 18 February 2007 (CST))

more may use the term GB to mean the whole entity but they'd be wrong and CZ would be doing them a disservice by propagating this misconception. Chris Day (Talk) 12:19, 19 February 2007 (CST)

I think this discussion would be more appropriate (and more generally useful to a wider range) on the Talk:United Kingdom page. Please keep it there. Ian Cundell 12:30, 19 February 2007 (CST)
