Hello ChrisDHDR,
After several months of working on this template pretty much on my own, I'm very happy to see someone else take an interest in it.
The map that you have added certainly does help people see where the academies are.
On the other hand, we seem now to have lost the compactness of the old format, which allowed the entire list of universities to be seen in one glance. And now, if one wants to navigate from university to university using the template, one has to click once to open the template, possibly scroll down within the template to find the university one is interested in, and then click again. I am concerned about the effect on the ease of navigation.
Please excuse these comments, as I see you've invested quite a bit of careful work into reformatting the template.
But perhaps the same goal of situating the different academies could be accomplished by placing the map on the page that lists the universities by academy?
Regards,

What sort of clean-up do you suggest to the List of public universities in France by academy?

Well, that's this issue. Au revoir et à bientôt till the next time, Chris DHDR ( 19:00, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).

A tag has been placed on Template:List of SNCF stations in Midi-Pyrénées/TOC requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{tranclusionless}}</noinclude>
).

Greetings, I just noticed that you had a request for Admin Coaching on the Admin Coaching Page. I have removed the request because you are not ready to become an admin. Please see the general guidelines for what most people are looking for in an admin here or my guidelines. If you don't know what your edit history looks like, please check out Kate's Tool. I encourage you to come back to the coaching page when you get closer to being qualified for adminship. Balloonman ( talk) 05:43, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi. Regarding the userbox template {{User South Africa}} I'm confused as to why you have now changed it to say "this user comes from the Rambo nation" -- I'm sure "Rainbow nation" would be a bit better, but in any case, why "Rambo?" Do you think we can change it? Rfwoolf ( talk) 12:13, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:AGV.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast ( talk) 22:04, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Hot carl, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article 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 article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

I know, it struck me as strange too. Shtis is what IMDB had for the English "festival title". I don't think IMDB has made a mistake with the S, as this reference uses the same spelling. Similarly, the German title given is "Willkommen bei den Sch'tis". I agree with Charvex in so far as we should use the titles given by the studio, not translate them ourselves, so I used the strange Shti spelling. Nick ( talk) 13:06, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
It'd be rather nice if, the next time you "borrowed" someone's design, you didn't leave such things as their names and links to their pages in the borrowed design. I got a very confused email regarding your userpage on Meta.
I've taken the liberty of correcting the errors and pointing it at your accounts instead of mine.
You may wish, to avoid impersonators, to go to special:preferences and merging your accounts. This prevents other users creating a username identical to yours on another project. See m:Help:Unified login for more information. Kylu ( talk) 06:27, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
