I replied to you again on my userpage. I would reply here but the conversation is complex so better to keep the pieces together. Do you know how to use the watchlist yet to watch for changes on another page? --Darkfred Talk to me 02:30, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page deleted
Sorry that your work got deleted. The reason was because it was in the main wikipedia article space. I have moved it to User:DFWMike/Schweizerhaus As you can see this puts it under your username. I know it doesn't make a lot of sense, but thats how the syntax works, you just forgot the "User:" part. If you would like to recover your work you can ask an admin to find the deleted version and paste it to the new location. Sorry. --Darkfred Talk to me 02:21, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] deleted again?
Your work was not deleted again, it is still at User:DFWMike/Schweizerhaus where I moved it. It was the redirect which was deleted. Just use the link above, or remember to enter the User: part. --Darkfred Talk to me 16:48, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Congratulations
I think your page is ready for the main encyclopedia. I moved it to Schweizerhaus and redirected all the other pages to point to it. I have added a note at the top which will inform other translators that it could use a check by an editor with dual fluency. Someone will usually check it and remove the notice in a few days. --Darkfred Talk to me 18:55, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Note to Darkfred
Blocked from leaving a message at your place. Some ridiculous charge of vandalism. Is this kinda like junior high? Does it have to do with being an AOL user? DFWMike 03:50, 18 September 2006 (UTC)DFWMike.
- AOL users change IP addresses on every page, some administrators don't know that and block them anyway, this means that other AOL user get randomly blocked on certain pages. It should wear off in a few hours. Its not your fault, its a problem with the system and AOL. If you make sure you are logged in it shouldn't happen. --Darkfred Talk to me 04:04, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Schweizerhaus
I was asked by Darkfred to have a final look at your translation; good work there; I made some tweaks and links and deleted your user-subpage. Cheers, and keep up the good work. Lectonar 15:15, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
