When I registered with Wikipedia, I hoped I would be able to contribute by uploading scans of out-of-copyright maps (these would mostly be regions of the map images on my own web site), and maybe by learning to create custom-drawn maps. I have had a few shots at uploading scans that were requested, but no-one has used them. So I have been reluctant to learn the techniques that would be required to create purpose-drawn maps. I certainly don't qualify as a "talented and experienced mapmaker". If you have advice on learning to use Inkscape or a similar product, I would appreciate it. Cheers, Maproom ( talk) 23:49, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Hey, I saw your note on my talk: page about WP:WPFC. I mainly edit articles related to the Holy Roman Empire as and when I have time and am in the mood; I'm prolly not the best person to ask for collaboration, I'm afraid. But any effort you can make to improving, tagging and rating the articles is almost as useful as getting us all organised about it, don't you think? Of course, if you find a handful of people willing to organise, then do lemme know :o) — OwenBlacker ( Talk) 02:43, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, Laurinavicius, for solving the difficulty I pointed out on the categories and infobox of Kievan Rus'. The only thing I noticed after your edit, which seemed to me to make the infobox more consistent with the text of the article, was that the article was then in both the categories Category:880s establishments and Category:9th-century establishments. Since the former category is included in the latter category, I removed the article from the latter category.
The template still has the potential difficulty I pointed out, but since there is no page actually affected by this difficulty, at least not in Category:10th-century establishments, it does not need to be solved. Nevertheless, I will add a comment to Template talk:Infobox Former Country as you suggested. Coyets ( talk) 09:04, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
Please make yourself familiar with other project's assessment guidelines before assessing their articles (for B-class visit WWII or Julius Caesar).

Hi, I noticed your edits on Mo'Nique. I hope you don't mind, but I changed the — to –. I could look up the specific entry in the WP:MOS, but if I recall correctly, an '—' should not have space around it, as it is already a long dash. An –, may have space around it, since it's a shorter dash. Thanks and let me know if you have seen conflicting information. Plastikspork ( talk) 22:09, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the apology and as you have said those pages took a lot of time and effort on my part. I will let you use my project page template, but please just link to the other pages (IE delete the copies you made). Also please add the above template to the project pages with the correct name. My apologies for my outburst, but I did spend a lot of time on the pages. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk | Sign 16:01, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello. It is nice to be told at the very least (AND PREFEREABLY ASKED) when you want to borrow from someones user space. I've noticed that you've copied my adoption program page template, as shown here, and User:Drew R. Smith's welcome page, as shown here. I really don't like the fact that you have stolen both these pages and at the very least I would like you to put the following template onto the pages and say sorry to both of us. Or you could just delete them and make your own.

An edit you performed at the Hamlet article corrupted the display of two illustrations at that featured article by converting by converting hyphens within the filenames into en-dashes. [1] As a result, redlinks appeared in place of those two images until I corrected the display today. Please do not alter hyphens within image and sound filenames.

Hello Matt, I was adopted a couple of weeks ago but I had my medical school finals so no time at all to work in Wikipedia. I am free now and tried to do the 'basics' task...but it's already done.. I mean the tasks are completed. What am I supposed to do? VinylCerebellum ( talk) 15:27, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Sorry I'm so late getting back to you, I haven't had time to go on wikipedia. The links task doesn't need cleaning out because it merely contains instructions and a place for adoptees to add links to there answers. So your adoptee can use it straight away, using the answer already on the page as a template for how to write his. I hope this explains things.

hi, I've been looking at the Florence/Tuscany articles, and Strathern seems to be the primary source on several. While useful, he is not the last word on the city republic, the Medicis or the duchy. With the amount of material out there on these topics, I hope that you and Jack are going to expand your sources before submitting for GA review. -- Auntieruth55 ( talk) 23:06, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

WP:ROLLBACK and remember that rollback is only for use against obvious vandalism. Please use it that way (it can be taken away by any admin at a moment's notice). You may want to consider adding {{

Hey thanks for the tip. I've been watching this talk page and think the debate is quite intense; so when HW007 posted his huge reply, I just couldn't help myself but laugh when the title's grammer was incorrect, and try to help him out a little bit..

Good day Jack! How are you? It's been a while, eh? Anyways, I'd like to speak briefly to you about two things. First, how do you feel about Louis XVIII? Do you feel that it is ready for a GA-assessment? I feel that it does meet GA-class standards, but I would like your feelings on the article before it is suggested. Second, would you mind doing a favor? On the WikiProject Former countries Referendums page, I posted a new referendum on possibly creating a C-Class for the project back in March. However, only two editors (including myself) have written opinions regarding it (both of which support the referendum). Would you mind just reading over the referndum and then writing an opinion and voting on it? Thanks a bunch mate! Happy editing! Laurinavicius ( talk) 15:26, 18 October 2009 (UTC) [copied over from User talk:Jack1755
Laurinavicius, following in your footsteps right after your last change, I noticed that you replaced "abolished" by "disestablished". I do disagree with you on this change as *disestablish* is not a synonym of *abolish*:
On 21 September 1792, the monarchy in France was abolished, not disestablished.

When I registered with Wikipedia, I hoped I would be able to contribute by uploading scans of out-of-copyright maps (these would mostly be regions of the map images on my own web site), and maybe by learning to create custom-drawn maps. I have had a few shots at uploading scans that were requested, but no-one has used them. So I have been reluctant to learn the techniques that would be required to create purpose-drawn maps. I certainly don't qualify as a "talented and experienced mapmaker". If you have advice on learning to use Inkscape or a similar product, I would appreciate it.

Hey, I saw your note on my talk: page about WP:WPFC. I mainly edit articles related to the Holy Roman Empire as and when I have time and am in the mood; I'm prolly not the best person to ask for collaboration, I'm afraid. But any effort you can make to improving, tagging and rating the articles is almost as useful as getting us all organised about it, don't you think? Of course, if you find a handful of people willing to organise, then do lemme know :o) — OwenBlacker ( Talk) 02:43, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, Laurinavicius, for solving the difficulty I pointed out on the categories and infobox of Kievan Rus'. The only thing I noticed after your edit, which seemed to me to make the infobox more consistent with the text of the article, was that the article was then in both the categories Category:880s establishments and Category:9th-century establishments. Since the former category is included in the latter category, I removed the article from the latter category.
The template still has the potential difficulty I pointed out, but since there is no page actually affected by this difficulty, at least not in Category:10th-century establishments, it does not need to be solved. Nevertheless, I will add a comment to Template talk:Infobox Former Country as you suggested. Coyets ( talk) 09:04, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
Please make yourself familiar with other project's assessment guidelines before assessing their articles (for B-class visit WWII or Julius Caesar). MILHIST assessment also demands that you have some background knowledge about the facts that should be in the article. Wandalstouring ( talk) 09:06, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed your edits on Mo'Nique. I hope you don't mind, but I changed the — to –. I could look up the specific entry in the WP:MOS, but if I recall correctly, an '—' should not have space around it, as it is already a long dash. An –, may have space around it, since it's a shorter dash. Thanks and let me know if you have seen conflicting information. Plastikspork ( talk) 22:09, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for the apology and as you have said those pages took a lot of time and effort on my part. I will let you use my project page template, but please just link to the other pages (IE delete the copies you made). Also please add the above template to the project pages with the correct name. My apologies for my outburst, but I did spend a lot of time on the pages. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk | Sign 16:01, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Hello. It is nice to be told at the very least (AND PREFEREABLY ASKED) when you want to borrow from someones user space. I've noticed that you've copied my adoption program page template, as shown here, and User:Drew R. Smith's welcome page, as shown here. I really don't like the fact that you have stolen both these pages and at the very least I would like you to put the following template onto the pages and say sorry to both of us. Or you could just delete them and make your own.

To Laurinavicius: I see you have taken care of this, thanks and apologies - had another editor not asked me a question here, I would have removed as resolved and unnecessary badgering, I hope you understand! KillerChihuahua ?!? 21:53, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
An edit you performed at the Hamlet article corrupted the display of two illustrations at that featured article by converting by converting hyphens within the filenames into en-dashes. [1] As a result, redlinks appeared in place of those two images until I corrected the display today. Please do not alter hyphens within image and sound filenames.

Hello Matt, I was adopted a couple of weeks ago but I had my medical school finals so no time at all to work in Wikipedia. I am free now and tried to do the 'basics' task...but it's already done.. I mean the tasks are completed. What am I supposed to do? VinylCerebellum ( talk) 15:27, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Sorry I'm so late getting back to you, I haven't had time to go on wikipedia. The links task doesn't need cleaning out because it merely contains instructions and a place for adoptees to add links to there answers. So your adoptee can use it straight away, using the answer already on the page as a template for how to write his. I hope this explains things.

Hey Laurinavicius ! Thanks so much for the barnstar ! I would love to join you in elevating the aforementioned articles to GA status with you.( Jack1755 ( talk) 18:38, 14 June 2009 (UTC))
hi, I've been looking at the Florence/Tuscany articles, and Strathern seems to be the primary source on several. While useful, he is not the last word on the city republic, the Medicis or the duchy. With the amount of material out there on these topics, I hope that you and Jack are going to expand your sources before submitting for GA review. -- Auntieruth55 ( talk) 23:06, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

I have just granted you rollback rights because I believe you to be trustworthy, and because you have a history of reverting vandalism and have given in the past or are trusted in the future to give appropriate
warnings. Please have a read over
WP:ROLLBACK and remember that rollback is only for use against obvious vandalism. Please use it that way (it can be taken away by any admin at a moment's notice). You may want to consider adding {{
Rollback}} and {{
User rollback}} to your userpage. Any questions, please
drop me a line. Best of luck and thanks for volunteering!

Hey thanks for the tip. I've been watching this talk page and think the debate is quite intense; so when HW007 posted his huge reply, I just couldn't help myself but laugh when the title's grammer was incorrect, and try to help him out a little bit.. I'll stay more to the sidelines in the future, as you suggest, unless I have something productive to add. Outback the koala ( talk) 02:13, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Good day Jack! How are you? It's been a while, eh? Anyways, I'd like to speak briefly to you about two things. First, how do you feel about Louis XVIII? Do you feel that it is ready for a GA-assessment? I feel that it does meet GA-class standards, but I would like your feelings on the article before it is suggested. Second, would you mind doing a favor? On the WikiProject Former countries Referendums page, I posted a new referendum on possibly creating a C-Class for the project back in March. However, only two editors (including myself) have written opinions regarding it (both of which support the referendum). Would you mind just reading over the referndum and then writing an opinion and voting on it? Thanks a bunch mate! Happy editing! Laurinavicius ( talk) 15:26, 18 October 2009 (UTC) [copied over from User talk:Jack1755
Laurinavicius, following in your footsteps right after your last change, I noticed that you replaced "abolished" by "disestablished". I do disagree with you on this change as *disestablish* is not a synonym of *abolish*:
On 21 September 1792, the monarchy in France was abolished, not disestablished.
