I thank you very much for your suggestions & opinions, say1988! Don't worry about doing a picture - I started on one immediately after I placed the suggestion on the WW1 talk page. Now the fun thing: your suggestions are very similar to the pictures which I have chosen:
Due to your message, I will try to finish the montage today and publish it. I would really like to hear you opinions on it on the WWI talk page, when it is published. Again, thanks for you message!

It is said and done. The WWI page has got itself a new title picture. I'd appreciate your opinions. Regards Dna-Dennis 01:31, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
Hi Say1988,
Sorry to bother you, but I've updated the captions on the edits to make it perfectly clear which version you support. Please update your vote and state which version you support. Please use the naming located under the main caption in bold, large text. Thanks, --

Hi there! Would you mind revisiting Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Villarceau circles to see if the new animation is better? Kieff managed to upload a new image a few hours since. Thanks for your comments! -- HappyCamper 22:31, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey, I have just seen your response in the article. I agree with you in some aspects (the ones referring to the USA as America). However, they are not as separate as you think they are. If you pay attention, they are historically unified. Columbus discovered America, and not the Americas. He did that in Dominican Republic, Central America. Besides, he was working for the Spanish Crown and his discovery as well as the name America itself do not correspond to the USA but to one whole continent. The fact that they are separated does not mean that they are not subcontinents of the same continent. Indeed, Mexico is for most people located in North America, and for some others, in Central America. Culturally speaking, the USA has more than 40 million of Spanish speakers, without mentioning all the famous Latin people (or latino). For this reason, some southern states such as Texas, California, Florida and New Mexico have a large number of people whose first language is Spanish. I don't see the point there, because I can understand that the word "American" or "America" refer to people born in USA, but I cannot agree with the fact that the Americas are not the same continent, when that is not true. Regarding that point, we can say then that Western Europe and Eastern Europe or Southern Europe are not all part of Europe. Well, this is the opinion among the people whose first language is Spanish, French or Portuguese. In Spanish (considered to be the 2nd or 3rd most spoken language on Earth, if considering the number of native speakers) the people born in the USA are called estadounidenses and not americanos. The latter applies to the whole continental mass. Finally, I study English language and literature at college and I perfectly know how the English speakers are wrongly used to the term.
