Hi, I'm a synsop in Arabic Wikipedia. To encourage users to become much more active, I'd like to send a king of encouragement certificate on behalf of the Arabic wikipedia community (and not Wikimedia) to users that reach a number of edits and/or a level of quality. I haven't found a website that offers to send all over the world created professional certificates or at least send me the certificates in Canada then I send them to the active user by mail. I just need a list of sites that may offer that kind of service. Thank you a lot. It's the first time that I don't find google usefull ! -- Helmoony ( talk) 01:27, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
Hi, i plan to do a text-based game for educational purposes in Python and Pygame but I don´t know which version of them are best for such project. Could you guys help me? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.214.116.35 ( talk) 05:19, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

I've been having a problem with my PC for a while now. It's cnfiguration is thus- 2 GB memory, 2.8 GHz Core 2 duo prcessor and a 1 GB NVIDIA graphics card. The problem is that when I'm playing games like FIFA 12 and CoD6, they terminate abruptly resulting in a blue screen which complaints about overloading. I work on Windows7 and have Ubuntu installed on the system as well. What coud be the problem and how can I fix it myself ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.204.4.104 ( talk) 08:47, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
CPU overloading? You should close all other programs running on your computer before run a performance-consuming software like games. If it does not, try a high-end laptop. Actually, I am answering this on a laptop too... 117.5.13.6 ( talk) 08:59, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
Bonjour, Je suis un peu inquiète à propos de tout ce qu'on entend aujourd'hui à propos des ondes émises par les bornes wifi et leurs effets sur la santé, notamment des enfants. Je suis maman de 2 petites filles de 10 et 7 ans, et que j'emmène à la bibliothèque au minimum 1 heure par semaine, bibliothèque qui fournit un accès Internet wifi aux lecteurs qui le souhaitent. Je suis donc à la recherche d'informations sur les impacts réels de ces ondes sur mes filles. Quels sont les risques pour les consommatrices "passives" d'ondes qu'elles sont en allant à la bibliothèque? Je vous remercie par avance de votre réponse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.214.201.98 ( talk • contribs) 12:42, 5 June 2012

edit conflict)The UK
Health Protection Agency(HPA) has a page on
Wi-Fi
here, which says "There is no consistent evidence to date that exposure to radio signals from Wi-Fi and WLANs adversely affects the health of the general population." Another HPA page on
Wireless Local Area Networks is
here, which says "On the basis of current evidence, the HPA does not consider there to be a problem with the safety of WLAN."
Relevant WP pages are
Wireless electronic devices and health,
Mobile phone radiation and health and
Electromagnetic radiation and health which basically agree with the views expressed above by User:Static and User:Dbfirs, but User:Wavelength has a source that is less optimistic. -

If I navigate with Firefox to a blog like this blog from the NYTimes, it shows me the last 7 posts. How can I pass a parameter to show the posts from x to y or the last 50? It would be the equivalent to anyblog.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=30&max-results=70, that shows from 30 to 70. OsmanRF34 ( talk) 13:30, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
Hello all! I'm an avid Spotify user, and I was wondering why on earth I periodically can't listen due to very loud and annoying "scratchy" sounds. I've been assuming that this is due to my crappy internet connection. Is this correct, and is there anything I can do to remedy it? Thanks! Keilana| Parlez ici 17:34, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
Can someone explain in simple terms that even an airhead blond could understand: What would be the advantages of having your images licensed under the Getty Images Program I have noticed in Flickr? Can one make money this way? How lucrative? -- Christie the puppy lover ( talk) 20:07, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
