- == "purpose-built" ==

- The phrase does make sense in English! It means that the building was built for that specific purpose, that it is not a generic office block. But really you were right to delete it from the Berlaymont pic on the European Commission article, even if for the wrong reason. The term should really only be used of, say, a testing ground that was "purpose-built" to test the Mars Rovers. In other words, it should be only used of a building that was put up for a specific purpose and has no other purpose in mind. --Red King 00:52, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
WikiProject Japan taskforces[edit]
In order to encourage more participation, and to help people find a specific area in which they are more able to help out, we have organized taskforces at WikiProject Japan. Please visit the Participants page and update the list with the taskforces in which you wish to participate. Links to all the taskforces are found at the top of the list of participants.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you for helping out! ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:49, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
