 * No, those 4 are just considered some of the potential ones as believed by the WU. The ones most likely to maybe succeed in getting across and joining. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 11:33, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Other Discussion
Penstubal, we should establish a trade route either by sea or by air between the nations in the Circular Powers. We should also add more countries to this. -- Slenderman  Majulah Singapura!   12:46, 4 April 2014 (UTC)


 * 1. Maybe


 * 2. That's the harder part cause we'd have to negotiate and everything with others

Changing tenses
Does anybody wanna help me change all the tenses to 'was' where necessary and stuff? Just that, I will do the stuff regarding like what happened, when it was dissolved, who replaced it etc. This also means I might need /some/ help with changing existing references to the WU across the wiki, too, or at least updating to the NCA. I envisioned all this to be done sometime this month. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 14:46, 12 March 2019 (UTC)


 * I'd help if I wouldn't have been forced to work on Duck Island for 2 weeks. --QP.png Quackerpingu   (Talk)   (Contributions)  15:09, 12 March 2019 (UTC)


 * You poor thing, how ever will you cope? --CanadaFlag.png Bro  Talk to me! OHYEAH.png 17:05, 12 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Speech 100--Radioactivechicken, Talk Page, °w° what's this? 19:40, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

The Western Union still isn't officially dissolved and it's a thing that is being worked on and expected to be finalized in the coming weeks once Brant and I discuss further details of the NCA. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 20:54, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

This is dissolving in 2020, right? I need to make sure, so I - and anybody else changing the tense - can add details when necessary (such as when the Circumcoin was discontinued, etc.).  Penguinpuffdude   It's time for a chat, no?    23:39, 12 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Still not worked out yet. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 13:04, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

I would like to warn those people so enthusiastically changing / removing all references to the WU (cough Bro, cough EDFan) to not jump the gun, and that is for their own good. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 13:04, 14 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Are you threatening me, master jedi? --CanadaFlag.png Bro  Talk to me! OHYEAH.png 13:18, 14 March 2019 (UTC)


 * yes -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 13:50, 14 March 2019 (UTC)


 * It's treason, then --CanadaFlag.png Bro  Talk to me! OHYEAH.png 19:16, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Reunion
An agreement has been reached to maintain the membership of Tropicalis and Margate in the Western Union and, of course, also maintain the existence of the Western Union. This decision has been reached following private talks between Wiki, Nick and I, during which we made several agreements regarding future relations of the WU with non-WU member states, the future of the WU and the relations of countries inside the WU. Nick and I have agreed that the main reason we have agreed to such negotiations is because of the hubris of certain people on this wiki, who immediately took time to celebrate the "Western Union's demise" and changed or removed all references to the Western Union almost as soon as that was announced.

The Western Union will continue to exist as a peaceful union of currently 11 member states. The Western Union will not succumb to tribalism and partisan politics on the international stage and we will be a force for good in the ruthless Antarctic political playground. As for us personally, please note that harassment is completely unacceptable and that any and all harassment will always backfire on the harassers. -- Penstubal (Talk) (Edits) 14:01, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

The Western Union will continue to play a major role both in continuity and on-site, and we have agreed that working as a collective to maintain a stable and conducive wiki environment for both "neutral" users like myself and "anti-administration" users is the best course of action to take. Harassment against users, regardless of their past history or behaviour, is unwarranted at all times. -- Nicktang10   (Talk)  14:09, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
