[edit] Thanks for voting in my RfA!

Thanks for voting in my RfA! I appreciate the support! the nomination did not gain consensus, but was a good experience and I'm glad I accepted it. - Amgine

[edit] Ásgrímsson - Haarde

I just wanted to thank you for explaining the exact situation regarding this prime ministerial transition and how the Icelandic system works. I like to keep my finger on the pulse with world affairs but as you so well know, knowledge on Iceland through much of the world is a mystery, partly because of the tiny population but mostly because we don't meet many diasporans if indeed there are any! Keep up the good editing. Evlekis 7 June 2006

[edit] Request to move category pages

Hello! I need your help. I need you to move, rename or merge these category pages and their respective talk pages to the correct format following MOSNUM. This is to provide greater consistency and prevent redundancy to these pages. This is also to prevent users from creating the same category pages as well. Some of these categories contain two similiar pages because of this. These are the categories in question:

  • Category:Wikipedians with 3000-4000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 3,000-4,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 4000-5000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 4,000-5,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 5000-6000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 5,000-6,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 6000-7000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 6,000-7,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 7000-8000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 7,000-8,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 8000-9000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 8,000-9,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 9000-10,000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 9,000-10,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 1000-2000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 1,000-2,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 2000-3000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 2,000-3,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 1000-2500 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 1,000-2,500 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 500-1000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 500-1,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 2500-4000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 2,500-4,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 4000-10,000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 4,000-10,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 7500-10,000 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 7,500-10,000 edits.
  • Category:Wikipedians with 7000-7,500 edits to Category:Wikipedians with 7,000-7,500 edits.


Notice that the changes in the title pages only require the addition of a comma for 4 and more digit numbers. You should also delete the redundant category pages as well. Your help in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank You once again for your time! --Siva1979Talk to me 06:24, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, I posted these here under sub-section, discussions. I hope to have your comments and support for the renaming of the above mentioned categories. --Siva1979Talk to me 16:17, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Economy of Iceland

Góðan dag! Thanks for helping out with Economy of Iceland. I hope to help bring this article to featured status, so any other contributions/suggestions you could make would be very much appreciated. I chose that article because I visited your country in October '05 and was completely amazed...if I could live there, I would. I look forward to working with you on this and other Iceland-related articles. Best, Paul 18:12, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

I like that plan and I hope to make some useful contributions to the article. It's good to have someone who is able to contribute in an advanced level of English about economics as that's not really my strongest side. Cheers. --Bjarki 20:44, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comanche_cph

I saw you blocked the above user. Here is another example of his offenses on this section of the page. DeliDumrul 05:42, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

I'll keep an eye on this user when the block expires. If he keeps it up, he should be blocked permanently. --Bjarki 15:02, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
I posted on WP:ANI on him. Haukur 12:44, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Syd Barrett Edit

Actually you're correct - this is my mistake. I apologize. Yankees76 21:49, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Admin abuse

I am going to report you for admin abuse, for threats against me, adding misinformation,for threatining me, accusseing me of beeing someone else, for dragining my name into the dirt and for saying lies. (Supermos 01:41, 18 July 2006 (UTC))

You can do that, I still believe the block was justified at the time. --Bjarki 01:46, 18 July 2006 (UTC)


So you no longer believe it to be so? You admit to beeing wrong? Great! Then clean my block log remove that I have ever been blocked and post on your own page that on the 16th of July 2006 you were wrong and then block yourself for the exact same amount of time that you blocked me. And because you were wrong you now must join my side and actually read what I have said and check out my last version on the scandinavia article and read ALL of my posts on the talk page and if you do all of that then we will be even-steven (Supermos 23:31, 18 July 2006 (UTC))
Wellster, I can't clean your block log. I'm sorry that you were wrongfully accused of being a sockpuppet, it seemed obvious at the time but I have later found that you are probably not from the same country as Comanche. I believe most admins would have made the same decision. --Bjarki 09:16, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] EU map

My mistake - I thought the person who reverted last time was just being selfish. If there are other that agree, go ahead and revert. I see now that there is extensive discussion of this on the talk page, and although I disagree with the conclusion there, I don't mean to try to make my change by force. - Cheers Brianski 01:59, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Iceland census

I got the 1980 census figure from Citypopulation.de. However, it is the only source I could find for it. The UN Demographic Yearbook states the the last census was in 1970. If you think Citypopulation is too unreliable as a source, feel free to go back to the 1970 figure that was previously there. Regards --Polaron | Talk 18:20, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comanche back edit warring

- on Scandinavia, again. I think he may have broken 3RR already. Just so you know. --Janke | Talk 08:40, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] European Union#Criticisms

you said: "true enough, but needs to phrased in a neutral manner". I can't believe you deleted the text and didn't even try to rephrase it yourself! Page Up 22:33, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Uhm, I don't really think you should expect someone else to clean up your POV insertions. --Bjarki 22:38, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Just in the time you spend reading this paragraph the deleted text could have been rephrased by someone who thought: "true enough, but needs to (be) phrased in a neutral manner". But that's OK. Page Up 22:52, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar

The RickK Anti-Vandalism Barnstar
In recognition of your efforts against vandalism, I hereby present you this barnstar. Cat out 14:35, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


P.S. You might want do delete the left over redirect (Turkey and Kurdistan). --Cat out 14:35, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! It's the first barnstar I've received. I have now deleted the leftover redirects. --Bjarki 14:42, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Benzin remix

That was a very important comma. :) - BalthCat 06:53, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Yes indeed. :) --Bjarki 13:56, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I'm looking for an Iceland administrator

and found you. I know we have corresponded before. Here is my issue. At the page List_of_Icelandic_artists#Sculptors there is a listing for Ríkharður Jónsson. However that fellow turns out to be a talanted footballer and not the sculptor at all. I can put together a stub on the sculptor Ríkharður Jónsson fairly quickly. Can you do the magic that administrators do in order to separate the two? Thanks. Carptrash 16:01, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

I turned Ríkharður Jónssoninto a disambiguation page, you can follow the link from there to create an article about the sculptor. --Bjarki 21:49, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to present you with the prestigious Thumbs Up Award for your good works at wikipedia. Carptrash 21:56, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Well I have some good news and some bad news. Your disambiguation page worked very well . . . . However, upon closer scrutiny i discovered that the sculptor's name was spelled "Ríkarður Jónsson" - which is to say, with no "h" in it. I have created an article for him -in progress - but your Ríkharður Jónsson was not used, so unless we can come up with another Ríkharður Jónsson, we don't really need it. And I don't know how to make it go away. Thanks so much for your time and efforts. Carptrash 18:50, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Ríkharður Jónsson is now again an article on the footballer, I added links to the top of both articles to clarify that these are two men with very similar names. --Bjarki 20:05, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
I saw that, and it is good. However, the deeper I get into this article the more of a tar baby it becomes. I just learned that the German wikipedia has an article on the composer Sigfus Einarsson while the Icelandic version does not. His gravestone is one of the images that I just uploaded. Any ideas? Carptrash 20:20, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
I don't know anything about him. --Bjarki 21:54, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Forwarding a request

You have a chance to put your money where your mouth is :D Stefán 05:48, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh dear... I'll see what I can do. :) --Bjarki 13:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Hanyu pingyin"

Hey, I think you spelled the name wrong in your Icelandic article on Hanyu pinyin, there is no "g" in the name. Perhaps you should move the article.--Niohe 03:02, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I did find it odd that the Icelandic version was the oly one with the "g". However the article on is. was written by a native Chinese speaker so I would like to at least consult him on this first. --Bjarki 10:58, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
