eerste nl.wikimedia.org ontmoeting

ik zou iedereen graag willen uitnodigen te overwegen of zij een rol willen en/of kunnen spelen in de oprichting van een nederlandse wikimedia-organisatie. een eerste ontmoeting wordt momenteel georganiseerd, zie daarvoor hier, op de nl.wikimedia.org wiki. er zijn nog vele stappen te nemen, en meer wikianen nodig, om e.e.a. op verantwoorde wijze verder te ontwikkelen.

Hi there Effeietsanders! I finally responded to you at User talk:Quill#wikimusic Sorry for the delay. Quill 23:20, 16 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I had a look at that link; not sure where the project is going. Remind me again after the proposed merge on 20th Dec if you would. Ciao. Quill 22:39, 17 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

bimah

Hello. Why did you removed the link to Polish page at Bimah article? --Sheynhertz _געשׁ״ך 16:23, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The polish page says, as far as i can see, that it is a disambig-page. I am cleaning up the mess of a dutch robot, and saw this. If you polish is better then mine, please correct it. But the reason was the disambig-sign aboe the polish article. A normal article should not link with a disambig-page... effeietsanders 16:28, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't guess

Please don't make destructive edits (removal of material), like this one, based on guesses. That brochure is actually available online here. You could have determined that for yourself. Thanks --Justanother 14:06, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please assume good faith. I was very much wondered that this brochure was given out by a ministry of Germany :S Usually this kind of propaganda is given out by foundations, hence my edit. Maybe adding the link to the image descriptionpage would be usefull (to proof your point) Btw, it might imho be better to mention official Bayern paper instead of German. effeietsanders 12:15, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do WP:AGF. That is why I simply ask that you not remove material based on a guess. That is not "good faith editing". If you question the accuracy of something in the article and cannot prove it one away or another yourself then bring up your issue in the talk page rather than imprinting your uncertainty on the article. You should be the one assuming good faith and assume that the editor that put it there knew what he was talking about. I had already made all those changes you suggest when I corrected your edit. --Justanother 12:28, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimania proceedings

Hey, thanks for getting in touch. Yes, the presentation is given, but the 'edit status' line refers not to the presentation itself but to the Proceedings: it's 'missing' because (as far as we know) you've not submitted the text of your presentation (or any other material such as slides or notes) for inclusion in the Proceedings. (In fact, not many presenters have: I need to get round to having a push about this.)

So, if you would like to send in your text I will get it uploaded, edited and finished off right away. There are some guidelines at [1] which explain what we are after and what we'll do to it once we get it. :) The only change to that document I would suggest is that for the moment it is probably safer to send submissions directly to me (ngb [at] mit.edu) rather than to the wikimania email address listed. I look forward to hearing from you! --ⁿɡ͡b Nick Boalch\^talk 23:38, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fyi: I had only a few lines of notes myself on beforehand, as it was a BoF. I wrote a summery of the discussion and the whole trip, and went around with it a few times at the #wikimania channel, no response. Finally I dumped it somewhere on meta i guess, no clue where. But as I said, I had no slides, no real notes, most of it was from a few lines on paper which were at the end not at all about the discussion. All the notes that are relevant are on the page I linked to and maybe it's talkpage. That's the whole idea of a BoF :). effeietsanders 19:36, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, we should probably change the template around so it allows for BOFs and the like, and so it's a little clearer what the template is for. And no clue where you dumped your notes? :( I thought they were going to end up on wikimania06. cheers, -- User:phoebe (brassratgirl)]] /(talk) 17:03, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Were not really notes, but I think a short summary. (written quite some time afterwards). The summary of the introduction and of the main questions (or which were intended to be main questions) are on that very proceedingspage and it's talkpage. effeietsanders 18:44, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Details Needed - What tags should I use?

The image tags for Image:AC_Propulsion_eBox_left_front.jpg already include what I think is sufficient justification for fair use in Wikipedia. It seems your opinion of the sufficiency of that rationale differs. Please provide specific details explaining why you think the existing justification is insufficient.

The image was used by the AC Propulsion press release announcing the availability of their eBox. In my non-wiki-lawyer reading, the press release usage provided sufficient basis for fair-use of the image in Wikimedia. I went one step further as well, just to be sure, and personally contacted the photographer to obtained permission to use the photo in Wikipedia.

Here are the tags I chose to convey that information about the image:

I should also mention that the boilerplate text you pasted into my discussion page is not friendly and needs to be made more specifically helpful. this unsigned comment has been posted by user:Mwarren us.

Hi, sorry for the delay, Hard to find internet in taipei. I explained my comment in the template, as I said that the image is replaceable with a free alternative. The object projected is not destroyed, still exists, so can be fotographed again, and licensed freely. That makes that the image does not comply with the required reasons. I hope this explanation is enough for you. That I put a boilerplate is because i understood that that is the way here. Wrt\iting something myself might not deliver the required info. I am not sure what exactly is needed to get the deletion process done, as i originate from nlwiki, and even after 45 minutes searching, i still dont get the whole system... sorry if my lack of ability to understand the complicated system offended you. effeietsanders 15:52, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the expanded explanation here, but it's too late to fix things and should have been in the original communication. The boilerplate pasted in was so absurdly arrogant and annoying that I have chosen to stop helping with the eBox article to avoid any further annoyance from wiki-lawyers. Mwarren us (talk) 21:41, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A.W.52 rationale

Two built, one crashed in 1949, the other one was scrapped in 1954. Until someone comes up with a time machine, the fair use stands. Hence the "none available" clause in the template. - Emt147 ^Burninate! 23:12, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Jimmy Leonard Stolk

A tag has been placed on Jimmy Leonard Stolk, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. ✤ JonHarder ^talk 05:54, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
