Hi, Could you please specifiy what you mean? A reference box, at the bottom of the page like in Romanian Land Forces or do you mean something else? noclador 20:58, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
I have created a number and will create many articles on dnaish films and actor swhich are on danish wikipedia. Some need translation . Please translate the danish ones in Category:Wikipedia articles needing translation thankyou . Hope you are well ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 14:06, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
Who said anything about tons of articles there are only a few. You disappoint me that your project cannot be bothered to help on my articles related to Denmark. ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 11:59, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
As for saying that me creating articles like Otto Brandenburg which clearly have so much potential "please don't do this" I find that very ungrateful and quite offesnsive that my efforts are not appreciated ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 12:02, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
For instance what is the problem with e.g Buster Larsen? ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 12:07, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Valentinian, thank you for your kind support of my RfA, which successfully closed yesterday. Please feel free to drop my a note any time if there is anything I can do for you. Pastordavid 15:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for stub-sorting Abdullah al-Ruzami and Yahia Badreddin al Houthi, articles which I recently started. Perspicacite 21:29, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello, Valentinian. An automated process has found and removed an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, and thus is being used under fair use that was in your userspace. The image ( Image:DK-Minoritetspartiet-logo.jpg) was found at the following location: User:Valentinian/Sandbox. This image or media was attempted to be removed per criterion number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media was replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot) -talk 00:46, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Just wanted to let you know that I just found some unstubbed short Serbian politician articles and the count is now up to 67. I also, Algeria-politician-stub has 40 and is upmerged.-- Thomas.macmillan 04:39, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
I will certainly change the parent cat. I was guessing what it would be based on the permcat's parents, but I'm really glad you checked on it. Cheers, Her Pegship (tis herself) 22:33, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Hey...I was just cruising the commons and saw this picture. Thanks for the great contribution to the project. Well done!-- Eva b d 22:25, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Indeed, you caught me. I forgot to add it and others as well. Thanks for reminding me.-- Thomas.macmillan 22:27, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you've reverted a few edits by this user. I've run into this editor before under the guises of A67 ( talk · contribs) and A87 ( talk · contribs) who was banned for consistently uploading images without source information, and then repeatedly restoring them to articles from which they had been removed by orphanbot. I'm sure this is the same person as the account was created the day of or day after the previous accounts were permanently blocked.
This is just a "heads up" but also a request to keep an eye on them. They clearly have a lot to offer the project, but I can't fathom why they feel the need to proceed in such a disruptive manner. In some ways, actions like these are worse than vandalism, because at least that's funny and obvious and easy to revert, but something like this is a lot harder, and they keep re-registering under new accounts. What is so mind boggling is that they are going through a lot of effort to actually contribute, yet they seem to be unaware of just how hard they are making things for themselves and editors like me who try to keep some semblance of sanity in this place. Perhaps their first language isn't English, so hence don't understand the warnings being given, but I doubt it, given the coherence of their contributions. I am really baffled by this. Any ideas?Thank you again, Valentinian, for your quick answer! -- Tellervo 15:15, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Just for your information, Angola-politician-stub is now at 43 and SierraLeone-politician-stub is at 53. Also, when creating politician-stub templates, which template is the best to copy? I've had greatly varying results and I know nothing about coding. Thanks!-- Thomas.macmillan 16:57, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi there, I noticed you edited the Template:PD-UA-exempt awhile back. You are welcome to contribute on a related Rfc page here, Wikipedia:Requests for comment/FC Vorskla Poltava image. Much appreciated, -- Palffy 21:16, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Me helping with images... first time for everything, I suppose! I've deleted all but three of these images, the others all having no licence info, and being either seven days old, or duplicates of same. The remainder either claim GFDL (presumably entirely bogusly), or are apparently new. One wonders if some of these aren't actually valid as copyright expired, though. I won't be active much over the next week or so, but if he's still being as unhelpful by then, I'll look into it further. Alai 00:29, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi. I thought I could create tags for a determined category thats why I did it. I never intended to do it ilegally.
I decided to wait a while to upload more images to see if I was doing something wrong. Guess its better later than never. Anyway, I wont upload more images to www.wikipedia.org and Ill stop using the tag.
Im no soldier, I've never serviced in the Portuguese Armed/Security Forces or any Defense organization. It is therefore VERY dificult to get images to portuguese military articles that have the necessary info you guys want. Im not demanding a change in the wiki policy, this is just the reality.
The photos you see WERE released to the public. Indeed I could tell that I lied on the tag. The paratrooper images dont come from neither the Army, Navy nor Air Force websites, but from a Portuguese Airborne website. (www.paraquedistas.com.pt) However I didnt post any images from the official military websites referenced above.
I could easily ask for authorization to use them on the forum of the website, but I would like to get help on how to use tags whom the photo taker gave permission to use. IE I think I can use images from www.paraquedistas.com.pt although they were released to the press.
If no solution is found for this problem Ill have to give up on my project of enhancing the Portuguese Armed Forces articles since I find images to be a critical elements of them. Plus it really pisses me off seeing UK and French military articles with images for example and I cant do the same.
I await your reply. HKFlash
Ok mate I've requested help from Zach. Lets hope this works...
Thanks for the advices and clarifications. HKFlash
Hi,
I see that you put DKK, SEK, and NOK are "mutual friends" in the exchange rate template. I know that the template documentation doesn't say how to choose additional currencies. And what you did make sense. But I've been adding those to all other currencies (still work in progress). And it seems that I'm the only one who's been doing it. The unwritten rule I use is that the import and export percentage from and to a foreign country must add up to 20% in order to get that foreign currency listed. And the extra foreign currency must be of at least a developing country or of regional importance. But sometimes exceptions can be made to the 20% rule (e.g. important neighbor). I'm not trying to impose anything. Just want to know your thought. -- ChoChoPK (球球PK) ( talk | contrib) 09:30, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I have been nominated to be an admin. If you support me, please indicate so on the RFA page. Thank you.Thanks for the answer on the Christian X of Denmark article. We seem to bump into each other a lot on these Nordic pages, perhaps you would be interested in cooperating to get a Kingdom of Iceland article up and running? -- Nidator 20:41, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

I saw on Inge's talk page that you are working on the Coat of arms of Denmark article, and I though this might interest you ( [2]). It is the coat of arms of Adresseavisen (established in 1767), the regional newspaper for Central Norway (Midt-Noreg). I don't know the history behind it, but if you decide that it is relevant for the article, then I can do some digging and try to find a better image. -- Nidator 15:28, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Val
About this , personally I think my description of a Nisse in front of Santas Workshop is much better than the real thing. PS: I have coffee on the pot, if your are up for a cup.

Do you know if there is an established English term for the Danish Rigsfællesskabet? There really should be an article on it. -- Nidator 15:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi V - you wrote: Hi G. It looks like this material differs between proper nouns and adjectives (Cat:United States school stubs vs. Cat:South African school stubs) and we even have a Cat:Japanese education stubs. Would you mind taking a look?
Es freut mich dich hier in Wikipedia kennenzulernen. Nun deinen Beitrag zu kurdischem Stub ist leider nicht so angekommen. Ich gehe davon aus, dass die Beiträge nicht genau durchgelesen hast. -- Bohater 14:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Greetings, Bohater. Thanks for your post. Unfortunately, my German grammar is rusty, so I hope it is ok that I reply in English?
The problem here is that the entire stub template "tree" uses a rather inflexible system regulating both scopes and names for the templates and categories. This is the reason why I read "Kurdistan-stub" and "Kurdish-stub" as the same thing since e.g. the German templates are named: {{ Germany-stub}}, {{ Germany-bio-stub}}. For the record, I am quite aware that the Kurdish people is distinct from the other nationalities in the region, and I have nothing against the Kurdish people. If we assume that WP:WSS bends the naming convention a little; I don't know if {{ Kurdish-culture-stub}} could work? It is just a thought, and I don't know how other stub sorters will react since this is not the way we normally split material like this. We did approve {{ India-culture-stub}} some time ago [4] and the "real" category system has Category:Kurdish culture so perhaps we could attach a stub template about Kurdish culture to this one. A {{ Kurdish-hist-stub}} would be more problematic since we don't have a good category to attach it to. My only interest in this issue is to keep the template system in one piece and to avoid templates that can lead to edit warring, so if we adopt a template for Kurdish culture, it will have to use a different image than a flag. Just my thoughts. Happy editing. Valentinian T / C 15:48, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
Mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut - in fact it is schrecklich - so I'll stick to English :) I've no objection if some way can be found to make a strict Kurdish-stub that doesn't impinge on stubs better served with Iraq, iran or Turkey stubs of some variety... the problem is maintaining it so that it doesn't get misused or altered by other editors. (I've replied a bit further on my talk page). Grutness... wha? 05:32, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Template:PD-Old regime Iraq has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for Deletion page. Thank you. — Jeff G. 14:12, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
Undskyld, men hvad betyder off-centre? Jeg ville bare henvise til, at det afbillede flag ikke var noget officielt. Jeg har fornemmelsen af, at enkelte bruger på wikipedia producerer gerne flag eller lignende, som med et blev blev deklareret som officielt. Og det kan ikke være hensigten med wikipedia, synes jeg. Håber, du forstår mig, venlig hilsen, -- Ntl-fl 15:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
Hi Valentinian - we may have a problem with User:Thedjatclubrock. I nominated his {{ Placeholder}} and its category as a "stub by any other name" at SFD. He's twice removed the sfd templates, and has now blanked the WP:SFD debate. He's probably just about blockable because of it (though for some reason the SFD templates don't have a "do not remove" message like other xFD templates...), but since I'm the one who instigated the SFD I'm not keen to do it myself just yet. I'm asking you and Alai to keep an extra two pairs of eyes on things just in case it happens again. Grutness... wha? 01:44, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
