Hey there Eric. I had seen your message on Worm's talk page, and figured that since he knew more than me I'd let him advise you. You seem to have it handled, which is just as well, since he's busy. If you ever need get stuck on this situation though, or I can be of any help, my talk page is always open. Nolelover Talk· Contribs 00:12, 3 April 2012 (UTC)

Not sure if you got the answer to this... as far as I can tell, {{ cot}} on Commons relies on Commons:MediaWiki:CollapsibleTemplates.js (loaded via Commons:MediaWiki:Common.js). En.wp has some equivalent "collapsible tables" code in MediaWiki:Common.js, but evidently it doesn't work quite the same way. Rd232 talk 22:54, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

...I believe the {{ nowrap}} template might be better in this case since the non-breaking space would require a space between the parts of her last name, which is what's wrapping onto a new line. - Purplewowies ( talk) 03:54, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

I really appreciate your involvement in the Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri article. If you still think the SMAX material should be separated out for clarity, start a new section on the article's talk page (titled SMAX section). I think we could put the SMAX material in the last section (there was a Legacy section the last time I read the article) and refer to that section in the preceding sections. While I think we need to show significant improvement to get the article upgraded, I want to be careful we don't lose the GA status. Vyeh ( talk) 01:56, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Deep-sea exploration
Since you seem to be a principle editor for this page, I'd like to refer you to my question on the talk page. If the answer is "no", please leave a note on my talk page (I'll need to make some changes). Thanks, and regards, ~Eric F 184.76.225.106 ( talk) 20:49, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
- @ Eric F - Thanks for your recent comment - Please understand that I'm more a casual editor, than a principle one, for the Deep-sea exploration article - nonetheless, you've asked some very good questions - according to Wikipedia -> "The ' deep sea,' or deep layer, is the lowest layer in the ocean, existing below the thermocline and above the seabed, at a depth of 1000 fathoms (1800 m) or more." - also, according to Wikipedia -> "The wreck of Titanic remains on the seabed, gradually disintegrating at a depth of 12,415 feet (3,784 m)." - thus, the Titanic wreck would be in the " deep-sea" I would think - finally - based on the above, the Titanic wreck would qualify as a " Milestone" of Deep-sea exploration as far as I can see - but that's my opinion fwiw - hope this helps in some way - Thanks again for your comment - And - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan ( talk) 21:42, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

I used an online translator to translate the German article on Willy Stower. I pasted it for you here: User:Canoe1967/sandbox. -- Canoe1967 ( talk) 23:58, 1 May 2012 (UTC)

Sorry. I came across a higher resolution image is all. I didn't realize that the low res one had signifigance. Please revert and leave a really nasty-chew-my-ass-out type comment.-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 19:09, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
I looked at many online free ones. This one allows larger sizes and no login or account needed. I also reverted that image and left comments on the image and talk page.-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 20:56, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
Are there any of the original prints out there? Find a wikipedian in that city to photograph one? I have the signature image, do you want that uploaded as well?-- Canoe1967 ( talk) 15:31, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
To get an idea of what is possible, check out this Stower image from the same publication, on Wikisource.de: Der Gang nach dem Osterwasser (1893) -- (unusual Stower subject matter). ~Eric F 184.76.225.106 ( talk) 00:45, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
It would be great to have that signature uploaded for the article -- I noticed that infobox-artist has a parameter for signature file (I "created" that one from his signature on a book cover). ~Eric F 184.76.225.106 ( talk) 23:45, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
