[edit] Jamie Najera problem

Hey Dina,it's me again.I kind of spiced the article up.Could you check if I need to add more?If so,what?Alyssacarmillo 18:50, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Is this article gone now or what?I had to get off for a lunch break and I managed to write about 6-7 more paragraphs.Alyssacarmillo 20:42, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

So are you saying that there is no way for me to expand the article?Alyssacarmillo 21:21, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Hey

So I added a pic to Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, but I think I should have taken one from the other side (this is the side I always think of because its the street I walk down most frequently.) It's better than the old one, but not awesome...Dina 01:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

I've got to say thanks first, since I asked and then you delivered, but this building should be shown "in the round", and you should show the part on pilotis [1], and where the ramp goes through the building [2], the first two here [3] show this pretty well. On another note, these buildings [4], and [5] also looks pretty interesting. Would like to see more but don't want to sound demanding :-( - your friend DVD+ R/W 03:10, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

The first one is Harvard: School of Education near Radcliffe College according to the site (I don't know that building but it looks cool to me), the second one is the MIT Chapel, which we have a really good interior picture of but the outside one is ehh... ok. Be careful climbing around the windows trying to get an above shot and don't climb Harvard dressed as Spiderman! DVD+ R/W 03:55, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Oooh, now I see. Can't I make a joke? - you know Weird Al is on the main page. No you are a smartypants, Deeena :-P Nany nany boo boo. While I'm here, don't forget to edit the election pages, and don't overlook these ones m:Stewards/elections 2006-2. Again, your friend DVD+ R/W 04:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Remember when you asked if you have to "know" the fact for DYK? I think an informed decision is like that. Who knows really. You've participated in RfAs right - it is much like that, you review the contribs, userpage, talkpage, other ppls comments and so on. But if you hold them to the cool as DVDRW policy then no one will possibly make it, so pls don't do that ;-) DVD+ R/W 14:35, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dear Dina

Hey Dina how are you, hope you're doing great, i have a litle problem with a member user named:Hseldon10 i've been traying to talk with him about not modify the content of articles like Second city wich is the only source we have to make a citation about the second most important city in Mexico. Certainly Mexican people are really localist, and he modifies all articles possible to make look his city (Monterrey,Mexico) like the best city in the world ever. Even if he has to change and modify all sources and citations existed. I've been trying several times to talk with him and explain him the Wikipedia philosphy wich he ignores all the time and change the situation trying to make look everybody like vandal hiding his intentions. I've offered him my help, advices and very polite frienship but i ignore why he doesn't want to understand. Do you know who i have to talk with to report this vandalism situation? so they can do something about, like block the user and/or the IP, or deny him contributions to this articles. Thank you so much Dina, I hope to found your answer soon and send you greetings and good wishes. (Raveonpraghga)

Hey Dina thanks for your fast answer im glad you take a litle time to attend my request, well i know the big fight in the Second city article seems to be between those british cities and i understand the point about that two cities could deserve a position to be a second city, in this particular case the problem goes only with this user who affirms that the city where he comes from is the second most important in Mexico (when this is not a real fact in real life) Maybe he's just playing or he must be over-proud about his birthplace wich is comprehensive but this is an enciclopedy not a space to show personal wishes. I invite you to investigate a litle more about the second most important city in Mexico in the sources you could be able to found, after Mexico city, Guadalajara is the second in Mexico. I've been studing history of America (the whole continent)since i was 17 now im 23,i've been following the development process of the American continent cities 6 years of my life be cause of my career, and i know the mexican development and its process very well, if you can found some information about it that would be great you can help me to make this articles keep real facts. I've been talking with another friends wikipedia memebers who are trying to follow the articles where he colaborates so he can't change information again and again. I hope you're very good and thank you, if you have some information or need something i could help with just contact me, hope to read you soon.(Raveonpraghga)

[edit] Health Wiki Research

A colleague and I are conducting a study on health wikis. We are looking at how wikis co-construct health information and create communities. We noticed that you are a frequent contributor to Wikipedia on health topics.

Please consider taking our survey here.

This research will help wikipedia and other wikis understand how health information is co-created and used.

We are from James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. The project was approved by our university research committee and members of the Wikipedia Foundation.

[edit] Harvard Film Archive

Hey, I noticed you fixed some of my footnotes in this article -- problem is, I can't seem to see what it is that you did -- the diffs looks identical to me. If there's something I'm missing about the footnote process, I'd love to know it so I don't keep making the same mistake. Cheers Dina 19:04, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Dina. It's a bot to correct refs to agree with where to place ref tags. In this case, it only removed the blank spaces between the punctuation and the ref, which doesn't show in the diff. Sandy (Talk) 21:26, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Letter from Someone, Moved from Your User Page by Tractorkingsfan (Hope that's OK)

Dear Dina, I'm sorry if this is not in the right place; I am an old (by IT standards) man, trying very hard to put things right for MY old man, Francis Coudrill. I've not intentionally vandalised his page, just tried (and failed, obviously0, to correct a few typos such as that zero instead of a bracket back there after obviously. I thank you for protecting my Papa's page; I know you're conscientiously doing your job; if there was anybody who knows their way around to do mine for me, I would LEAP at it; I've tried to put a couple of photographs of him into the picture gallery too; I'm way out of broadband on a rock in the ocean, there's an 80 mph gale threatening to lift the roof, this is taking forever and I'd like to go to bed. end of complaint. To communicate without my getting a headache, try jxcoudrille@yahoo.co.uk, to form a kinder opinion of me try my ancient website, www.jxc.ukf.net, and look at the children's books. thanks, x J

[edit] Reply

Wow, that is an incredible painting on the page. Seems like a very talented family, and it's clear that he means very well. I'm sure the article on his father can be shaped up well, as you have already begun to do. Thanks for pointing me in the direction of some interesting stuff. Cheers, --Tractorkingsfan 21:50, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adminship

Hey Dina. DVD RW suggested I nominate you for adminship. I reviewed your contributions, and I think you would be a good candidate. Are you interested? You can reply onwiki or by email, your choice. - crz crztalk 06:19, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
