Template:Infobox Aircraft

Please stop editing the infobox and revertings those changes some minutes later when they are not working as intended. Use your personal sandbox to test those edits and include only the final version to the infobox. Thank you. --Denniss 23:30, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I knew that the changes I made were isolated from things that might have changed anything in other articles. I know what you mean, and I've started my own sandbox testing. - S. Solberg J. 00:05, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

euro spot rates

Some of your edits to Euro were reverted becuase we can't use spot rates as these aren't readily verifiable or were momentary. We use the ECB's formal record, which is. The editor who reverted should have told you this. --Red King 18:28, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

EP distance image

Hi. The colour changes are great, however could you upload it under a different name so the original version is still available? Thanks. - J Logan ^t: 14:23, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I've done so. (Image:European Parliament Distance modified.jpg) - S. Solberg J. 14:58, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Location of European Union institutions map

Hello, i'm sorry but Strasbourg is also the seat of the European Ombudsman and the Eurocorps. Yes, the city is mostly Council of Europe, but the EU is not represented by the sole Parliament in it ! Cheers, RCS 08:16, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NASA

Hi Ssolbergj, I hope you don't mind, but I've reverted the NASA article back to the government infobox. NASA is a government agency first, and space agency second, and as part of the US Government, that infobox should be used for the article. Cheers, ^Ariel♥Gold 23:25, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Graphics Lab Announcement

Attention All Wikigraphists!

As you may or may have not noticed, the Graphics Lab pages have gone under a massive cleanup by User:DTR, User:Rugby471 and various others (sorry if I missed you out). Some of the things that have happened are.

All pages in the Graphics Lab have had, where sensible, templates, substituting elements. For example, the main Lab page was a large chunk of around 100 lines of pure code. It was not very easy to edit the main page, so the various sections of it (eg links, welcome) have been separated. Therefore the main page is now only around 20 lines of user friendly text. If you wish to edit the main page, you must look on the main page for the correct template to edit. (Fore example if I wanted to edit the links section, I would go to Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/links and edit the text there). This has been done to all of the pages, in an attempt to make them more user-friendly.

As you were notified of early, the Wikigraphist Abilities page has been set up and has been beginning to get populated. If you haven't already setup your own entry, you are advised to go and do so now.

Due to a comment from User:DTR. A template for Graphics Lab announcements has been created. It is at Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/announcement. If you ever need to issue a message to Wikigraphists, please use this template in the form

{{Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/announcement|message ~~~~}}

Where message is the announcement you wish to issue.

On the Images to Improve Page, an issue was noticed where that when requests were completed, people were adding {{Did}} but forgetting to add <!--werdnabot-archive--&gt so that the request would be archived. Therefore a template has been created (yes another one!) to help with this. When a user creates a new request instead of putting the usual code, they shall put

{{Request Title|title=Lorem Ipsum|done=false}}. Now when a request is completed, all you will have to do is change done to true

done=true

and the template will add the {{did}} template and also  to the title, so it will get archived.

As always, if you experience any issues with the new changes, or are just a bit confused, please don't hesitate to contact me or DTR on our talk pages.

Fair use rationale for Image:Europa language.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Europa language.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chris B • talk 15:00, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the rationale. -- Chris B • talk 16:06, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:ECFR logo.png

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:ECFR logo.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 23:51, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you!

Thanks for uploading . The templates it's on look much better. Rocket000 01:23, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:CEDEFOP logo.svg)

Thanks for uploading Image:CEDEFOP logo.svg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 19:12, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Template:European Union Labelled Map (blue)

Just to let you know that your recent change to this template has altered the posistion of "Belgium". Any chance you could fix it? Wiki01916 11:52, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sure - S. Solberg J. 14:47, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Possible problem with Image:European Union Population Density.png

Hi Ssolbergj, during the GA review of European Union there were some doubts about copyrights of several images. After checking the Image:European Union Population Density.png originally uploaded by you might be one of the images that cause problems. You claim it is fair use. However there is some doubt (see the image talk page).
Can you fix that? If so, please can you do it as fast as possible, as the GA review of European Union demands these issues are solved and we want to maintain the image.
Thanks a lot Arnoutf 18:12, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A second image was flagged up, also uploaded by you Image:EUCoJ.jpg. Can you expand the information of that one as well. Thanks. Arnoutf 20:26, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aircrafts

You've been around on en.wkik long enough that you should know that "aircrafts" is not the English plural for "aircraft". As such, I assume this edit was just a typig/edit mistake. I certainly hope it wasn't a joke, as that form is considered vandalism. - BillCJ 01:57, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad to see you're assuming good faith. - S. Solberg J. 09:46, 15 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

article name change

Hello, can you revert the name change of the Reform Treaty article? It has not yet been ratified, so until December 13, it is still the Reform Treaty. Furthermore, the way you moved the article, has caused the edit histories to go in all different directions (the full edit history of the Reform Treaty can not be seen in the current Lisbon Treaty article!).

EU page map

Great work on it, fantastic as always. However don't forget about Czechoslovakia! - J Logan ^t: 16:14, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! It's fixed. - S. Solberg J. 16:27, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi S, awesome new map! Saves a lot of double and triple maps. The fine Crete image is also much better. Some thoughts to the new map: a) Is it possible to slow down the enlargements steps? It´s hard to follow the timeline AND the territory simultaneously. b) Could the new cycle of enlargement start a little earlier, I think it is a long time to wait now. And another thing, remember your great map for Berlin? It is disputed and replaced. Maybe you could have an eye on it, because right now I´m unable to discuss and reinsert it. .. By the way, Lear 22 was you wasnt it? If so, you are blocked as well, haha! Because this message is topsecret, delete it when read. Jagshemash —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.179.11.197 (talk) 23:34, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! a) I know what you mean with the animation speed, but it's a real dilemma; it has to work for people simply wanting to see which are member states in general, and at the same time give visitors a lucid enlargement overview. I thought people wanting to study the EU enlargement step by step could just visit .

...so my compromise was rapid (0,8 sec i think) expansion. b) "new cycle of enlargement"?

No, I'm not Lear 22. I'll try to insert an improved berlin-EU map when I've got time. - S. Solberg J. 23:54, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not Lear 22, mysterious, it wasn´t me either... Concerning the "new cycle": I mean the timespan when Enlargement series is finshed and Enlargement series begins, it could be shorter IMHO. And, just a reinsert for Berlin-EU would be very helpful for the beginning, if you want to... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.179.11.197 (talk) 00:23, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The map looks really chaotic when the enlargement animation is going on. ("Ukraine" in the middle of the Soviet Union, Impossible to create text for both Western and Eastern Germany etc.) So I thought the animation would just work as a cool start that could replace the old enlargement gif, and after that being a normal map that people have time to study.. If readers want a replay or a more detailed introduction they can click on the "main:" link or 're-scroll' to the image. I'll wait util I've made a better one before I reinsert the Berlin-EU map.) - S. Solberg J. 00:41, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A comment on the talk page concerning the EU-Berlin map would be much appreciated. The best argument though would be the installation of several EU-City-maps. Maybe we can still uphold this one for now. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.179.159.235 (talk) 17:33, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

European Parliament

Continued from my edit summery. How does that sound? The App. info should be with members and if you could shorten it (two cols?) I'll see if I can make the section longer. Might that work? - J Logan ^t: 15:00, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes probably, I'll try to shorten the table. - S. Solberg J. 15:10, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

International Space Station expedition crew member nationalities

Hi! I remember your insightful contributions recently during the discussion of the use of flags for the ESA article. If you have a moment, would you please take a look at Talk:Expedition_16#Nationality_of_crew_members and add your views to the discussion? Thanks! (sdsds - talk) 23:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:EU Constitution structure.svg

Hi Ssolbergj, I've seen your images about the european Constitution and the Reform Treaty: you should add another treaty on the left part of the Image:EU Constitution structure.svg: the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. This treaty was included in the constitution and it is not included in the reform treaty which has an article referring to it. You should add it also in the Image:Lisbon Treaty structure.svg, clarifying that before it was not legally binding whereas now it is. Ciao, Sinigagl 15:48, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now only traditional treaties are included. I don't know how the rights charter relates to the other treaties. Can't we just mention the rights charter in the image caption? - S. Solberg J. 16:15, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've made the changes by myself: can you fix the images/template please?

Ciao, Sinigagl 17:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've tagged all the fine images you've put on commons with the proper categories within commons:Category:European Union: please do it by yourself next time you upload a new image. I see that you are norvegian, and I also see that you live in Bruxells and you love the EU (maybe you also work for the EU): you are such a strange norvegian!!! ;-) I lived in Trondheim and I know something about you as a people... Ciao, Sinigagl 22:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Haha.. I don't live in Brussels (that was just a userbox I made) and I'm sorry to say that I don't work for the EU.. Why would it be paradoxal that a Norwegian is pro-european? ;-) But yes unfortunately I have many uninformed and egoistic countrymen.. - S. Solberg J. 22:52, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AEGEE logo image

Hi, I noticed the AEGEE-Europe logo you uploaded was tagged as having an invalid fair use rationale, but you then deleted the tag without making any other changes. I'm by no means an IP lawyer and don't really see what was wrong with your rationale, but surely problems need to be discussed and not just blanked?

I'm an AEGEE member myself and I think I can get the board to release a GDFL copy of the logo, so unless you object I think I'll do that :-)

cheers, Moyabrit 13:59, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added in which articles it's used. Of course, who doesn't love GDFL? ;-) But I'm pretty sure the fair use rationale now works fine with english wikipedia- S. Solberg J. 01:02, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maps

Hi, I wondered if you knew if there were any free satellite images around that might have Brussels, Google Maps is copyrighted isn't it? I was wondering about doing a graphic for Brussels and the European Union with a satellite image overlaid with locations (we have the Lanmark Publishing PDF with most) but I can't find anything suitable to use as the base image. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JLogan (talk • contribs) 14:14, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

NASA World Wind. (Image:Brussles 4.35995E 50.84400N.jpg I haven't downloaded it, maybe it's possible to zoom further in.) For optimal sharpness you should upload the image with the same size you'd like it to be rendered in the article. Are you thinking of a labelled map? - S. Solberg J. 16:30, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I was thinking about perhaps colour coding those of the different institutions, providing a semi-transparent overlay for them and fading out the area outside the EU district. Not sure exactly, it's just an idea I'm looking into right now, if I can get one I was thinking of overlaying a streetmap like on google, just basic roads. Still not sure what would be best, one just showing the major buildings or one showing the density of all those EU buildings. The latter may be more informative but they're doing rebuilding soon so I don't know how up to date it will be after a while. - J Logan ^t: 16:33, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

EU again

Hi, look, the discussion on the EU talk page isn't going well. While I sympathise with Lear he appears to have difficulty articulating himself in a manner which would induce the others to listen. To put it politely. As you are the only other person backing him up, I'd appreciate some ideas/arguments from you on how to accommodate yours and Lear's point of view on the page. Were any of the ideas I posted up during the rant helpful at all to your position? Thanks. - J Logan ^t: 20:57, 11 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to DOLLAR AND EURO IN THE WORLD.svg

Ssolbergj, please revert to the last version at your own! This file is about the US dollar and the euro in the world, the legend says it all: dark blue for countries which adopted the euro as legal tender. Cyprus and Malta did not adopt the euro as book currency and legal tender. Cyprus and Malta will adopt the euro as book currency and legal tender as of January 1, 2008. Countries with currencies pegged to the euro are in the lighter shade of blue. Nerd says: Cyprus will adopt the euro one hour before Malta. <cynism>You can make a living of that by editing and uploading the file two times on New Year's Eve'.</cynism> If you like the euro so much, adopt it in a country of your choice.

The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, it is currently [[Wikipedia:Orphan|orphaned]], meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. [[WP:BOLD|You may add it back]] if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|our policy for non-free media]]).
