You really shouldn't. most wallpaper adhesive is water soluable and will cause the paint to have adhesion problems.
If your paint is dense enough, nothing will happen.
If the wallpaper removal doesn't work, you can try splashing some water on it. Then rip the wall paper off. Another option would be to paint over the wallpaper.
Are you planning to paint over the wallpaper? Make sure there are no loose ends or bubbles in the paper. Latex flat or satin paint will work but you will see the seams in the wallpaper and the paint may cause the paper to lift off the wall. Better to remove the paper first for the best look and most durability. I had to paint over paper and decided to texture the wall first with a skim coat of plaster. Doesn't look bad but a LOT of work!

There are a couple advantages of using wallpapers over paint. Someone who doesn't like the wallpaper design can easily get it off and replace it whereas paint someone would have to strip it first and then repaint the area.
There is no specific brand of paint designed to cover wallpaper. Paint carries too much moisture to use on top of wallpaper. When paint is applied to wallpaper the wallpaper absorbs some of the moisture and immediately begins to bubble and lift at the seams. Your best bet is to soak the wallpaper with hot water and a sponge and let it soak in completely. Enzyme based wallpaper remover also works well because it eats away the glue backing on the wallpaper. There is a method for painting over wallpaper if for some reason you do not want to remove it. Pick up some shellac primer and apply that to the wallpaper. It dries so quickly the wallpaper doesn't have time enough to bubble. Then you can apply the paint. Word of warning: make sure you have a lot of ventilation when using the shellac. It have very strong fumes. I hope this helps.
yes
Yes, -but I wouldn't recommend painting over ANY wallpaper - it's a sloppy, lazy way to do redecoration, and the paint will not adhere as well.
Possibly because the tile adhesive wasn't totally cured, or the oil base paint wasn't sufficiently mixed. I have used oil over tile adhesive and it worked for me.

Yes, I did and it worked out fine. If it has engravings in it, it might be difficult, but it should be fine!

Wallpaper placed over washable paint is a bad idea if the paint has a latex base. The latex will be dissolved by the glue in the wallpaper and it will not adhere very well.
all you do is paint over them with white. if it's wallpaper, go to Lowes and buy a wallpaper remover. It will be hard work.
Paint over it - have done this many times to great effect.
