[edit] kim possible episode numbers ...
It seems as though the episode numbers (upper left corner) are currently sort of random. I was thinking they probably ought to be numbered from 1-65 like they are here Does this sound correct to you? -- ProveIt (talk) 08:07, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- I've been playing around with the idea of numbering by airdate...but you can relabel them if you wish...

- none of the license tags I leave with TwotoTutor.jpg seem to be showing up. Will try again tonight
- Jarwulf 17:57, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
- I tagged it as a {{tv-screenshot}}, I think that is probably correct. You can go to the image page Image:TwotoTutor.jpg and click edit to see how you do the tag. I'm not sure what you were trying before, maybe uploading it again? You can change the tag by editing the page (it's actually very similar to any other wikipedia page). If you have any questions let me know :) - cohesiont 18:26, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:CarTrouble.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:CarTrouble.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Rossrs 09:07, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Framegrabbing
I have a question for you, if you could help. I was wondering if you could tell me how to framegrab. If it helps, I have a dvd-player on my computer and the default program for dvd playing is PowerDVD. If you can help that would be great, if you can't that is ok too. --WillMak050389 04:22, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I don't seem to have that version of powerDVD but I will try to find one of those freeware programs somnewhere. Thanks for your time. --WillMak050389 14:22, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Intellectual Property Protection Act of 2006
I'm trying to track down the bill number for this and I'm not finding anything...was it ever even introduced in Congress? Thanks. Postdlf 18:12, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
- All mention of the bill seems to have completely dropped off the radar after april, as far as I know it hasn't been introduced. However I did find that the Intellectual Property Enhanced Criminal Enforcement Act of 2006, HR 5921 covers much of the same ground and no one seems to be aware of this one, aside from the old fogies in congress who write all this stuff up Jarwulf 00:35, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- Would you support deleting it? I don't see a need to document bills that never left the drafting table. I started List of intellectual property legislation pending in the United States Congress so I've been trying to organize these. Postdlf 00:38, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
- If we know its dead I wouldn't mind, but since everyone's forgotten about it we'll have to check to see if it didn't just morph into another bill or will actually be coming up for a vote in the distant future. Jarwulf 00:44, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] cutting vs thrusting
I just remembered that talk pages aren't really supposed to be use for general subject discussion, but only for article discussion. Here is a response to your latest question.
Well, it isn't to say that cutting weapons were totally abolished at all. Swords like Messers remained popular in northern Europe, and the Renaissance saw the introduction of the famed Zweihanders, Katzbalgers, and Broadswords such as the Schiavona, all heavily cutting based weapons. On the battlefield, cutting weapons were extremely effective, especially the cavalry sabre, as you mentioned, in part because the amount of armour began to decline after the onset of effective firearms, meaning that warswords no longer had such a problematic time with reaching their intended target (it is also a important to understand that sword-central warfare was falling somewhat out of style at this point, leading up to the use of pike squares and firearm formations). These warswords could not easily defend against rapiers in the civilian duels because of the inherent speed of rapier combat, and the rapiers lost their effectiveness when in constrained battle conditions (from my understanding). Because of these differences, rapiers were left to use against rapiers (most of the time) in unarmoured civilian duels, while the cutting warswords went on in military (and occasional civilian) use until after firearms became the prevalent means of attack. -- Xiliquiern 02:07, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
