I like you to know that I have posted a German article about Moritz Landé. I also corrected your English version as it was partially based on wrong informations. 1. He is not born in Poland, but in Ostrowo. At the time of his birth, Ostrowo was within the [[Prussia|Prussian]] [[Province of Posen]], so he is born as a German. 2. His daughter [[:de:Thekla Landé|Thekla]] was born in Ostrowo in 1864 so he probably didn't move to Berlin before this year. 3. He is definitely not the architect of Europe's largest Jewish cemetery in Berlin-Weissensee as I contacted the cemetery administration and its support association as well as Centrum Judaica in Berlin in that matter. But I got the unexpected information that someone named Emil Landé, a bricklayer, was involved in the construction project of this cemetery. Maybe this caused the wrong information. This is published in a German book by Wolfgang Gottschalk (author): ''Die Friedhöfe der Jüdischen Gemeinde zu Berlin'' (transl.: Cemeteries of the Jewish Community in Berlin). Argon Verlag, Berlin 1992, p. 61. ISBN 3-8702-4201-9. 4. You also uploaded his picture referring to an unknown German photographer as author. That's right. But I found that your picture is no original. It is definitely a copy of an older original as the given photo studio's name below the pic ''[[:de:Adolf Jandorf|A. Jandorf & Co. Berlin]]'' didn't exist during the lifetime of Moritz Landé. This company – a Berlin-based warehouse-chain, started in 1892. Germany's most-famous warehouse [[KaDeWe]] was part of this chain and is the only remainder of this former group. This is only a minor addition but maybe of interest to you since you are claiming to be Moritz Landés great-grandson. In the German Wikipedia I am actually uploading pictures and articles about the Landé family ([[:de:Hugo Landé|Hugo]], [[:de:Thekla Landé|Thekla]], [[:de:Alfred Landé|Alfred]], [[:de:Charlotte Landé|Charlotte]], [[:de:Franz Landé|Franz]]).

Hi - glad to hear you've found the Union documents. I'll be happy to see them, and to pass them on to the relevant undergrads! Click here to email me: (link removed since you emailed). (I am very spam-averse, hence the obfuscation!

Thanks very much!

Excellent pictures of BZ's tomb.

BZ has my favorite setting for a tomb. All is peaceful beyond Grove Street, and the BZ tomb looms largely over the peace.SLY111 17:59, 20 June 2007 (UTC)SLY 111[reply]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Yale Elizabethan Club Phoenix Motif.jpg. 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Elizabethan Club

Hello, I was looking at the Lizzie entry and noticed that a number of the links don't work. I replaced the one on the Leverett-Griswold family with one I thought was along the same lines of where the original might have linked, but if this is an entry you're interested in (I notice you took the rather nice photos), you might want to have a look at some of the other non-working links as well. By the way, good user name. MarmadukePercy (talk) 11:15, 24 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Eli's Chosen Six requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. TM 16:09, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
