www.national.archsrch.gov.za

Search links from www.national.archsrch.gov.za are temporary and thus useless. Try to get the address of the actual page found instead. This may involve removing a frame. —Tamfang (talk) 02:56, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hullo

Do you happen to know if the page 'Surrealists that consider themselves Wikipedians' or something similar was deleted? Shame if it was as I found it amusing.  SmokeyTheCat  •TALK• 13:52, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request for an image

Hi Daniel,

I found you on the list of illustrators and wondered if you'd help us out with an image. I placed a request at the Graphics Lab some time ago, with no takers. It appears that real artists are thin on the ground on Wikipedia.

We'd like an artistic interpretation of the appearance of strings, see this copyright image on the web and here for examples. This is a very esoteric area of particle physics, so surrealism is strangely appropriate. The image would be used primarily in the String Theory article, but I left in the others for interest.

Articles: String Theory, Quark, Fermion*, Elementary particle*, Fundamental interaction*, Unified field theory*, Vacuum energy*, Quantum foam*, Grand Unified Theory

Please contact me if you need any other input. Dhatfield (talk) 23:39, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Snowball in heraldry

Greetings! I have been working on Charge (heraldry), trying to write a manageable article based on the very lengthy list that preceded it. One passage, "The snowflake is only known in more recent times, though the snowball predates this by some centuries," stuck out as a dubious claim. I'm really not sure when the snowflake or "snow crystal" was first known in heraldry, but I cannot think of a single instance of a snowball in early armory, and I see no mention of it in any of my heraldry books (including Fox-Davies, Volborth, Neubecker, and The Oxford Guide to Heraldry), nor in Parker's Glossary. Looking for the claim's source in the article's history, I found it in this edit, so I issue you this friendly challenge. Please provide a verifiable source or the statement will be removed. Thank you. Wilhelm_meis (talk) 09:06, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Franklin Rosemont's Death

Daniel, I am sorry to inform you that Franklin died Sunday night at his home. I am a photographer not a wikipede so I decided not to alter your article, preferring to simply let you know what happened. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

New image project

Hi. This little form letter is just a courtesy notice to let you know that a proposal to merge the projects Wikipedia:WikiProject Free images, Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use, Wikipedia:WikiProject Moving free images to Wikimedia Commons and Wikipedia:WikiProject Illustration into the newly formed Wikipedia:WikiProject Images and Media has met with general support at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Files. Since you're on the rosters of membership in at least one of those projects, I thought you might be interested. Conversation about redirecting those projects is located here. Please participate in that discussion if you have any interest, and if you still have interest in achieving the goals of the original project, we'd love to have you join in. If you aren't interested in either the conversation or the project, please pardon the interruption. :) Thanks. Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:53, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

J. Karl Bogartte

The article J. Karl Bogartte has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:41, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of cats with fraudulent diplomas. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cats with fraudulent diplomas. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:12, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
