[edit] one gamers
Hello! It is quite simple. You go here and just start typing the article. After you are done, go here List of NHL one gamers and add these [[ ]] around Sundin's name. Next, go to "What links here" on the Ronnie Sundin article on the left and side of the page and make sure everything is linked properly. If you are still having problems, let me know and i will help out further. Masterhatch 00:58, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hockey player infobox
See the full example on Template:Infobox Ice Hockey Player for the abbreviation of the country. The example shows the infobox for Ales Hemsky who is from Czechoslovakia. CS is used as abbreviation for the country. When using the three letter abbreviation CZE would be used. But I've noticed when randomly checking some entries for hockey players that both are used. --claes 17:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Vfifgold65.jpg

[edit] Forsberg pic
Why did you remove the Peter Forsberg pic from the History of the Philadelphia Flyers article? --Sparkhurst 23:02, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, okay. Thank you for the quick response. --Sparkhurst 23:09, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Göteborg
Above the infobox it is normal (if not standard) here on Wikipedia to put the local and official name of the town or region in question,please see Copenhagen for exampel. Best regards Litany 14:22, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] User:Fred Chess/WikiProject Sweden
You said Hi there! How is the Swedish wikiproject doing? If there is anything I can do just drop me line --Krm500 15:26, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I outlined User:Fred Chess/WikiProject Sweden. Added some articles. Should need more additions. Please read section "Project outline" first. If you want, you can add article suggestions to the talk page, and I will perhaps add them to the page.

[edit] Göteborg Opera
Hi! I saw you moved the Göteborg Opera article, and that's fine and all (even if I don't agree). However, its always better to use "move" instead of copy/pasting since that removes the history of edits. Pax:Vobiscum 21:21, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
Since Göteborg Opera is the name used by the opera (in english) I think that is the appropriate name. Much like the ballet is called Göteborg Ballet (in english) and the university Göteborg University. Using the actual name just makes more sense to me, even though Gothenburg has a longer history. From the perspective of a tourist it also makes more sense that the town that arranged the "Göteborg European Championships 2006" and houses the "Göteborg Museum of Art" is actually referred to as Göteborg.

[edit] Taichung City
I am new on WikiProject Cities. I have added considerable content to the first city I am working on, which happens to be the city of my residence, Taichung City. Would you mind taking a few minutes to look it over and leave comments on how you think I can make it better to bring it up to WikiProject Cities standards in a section of the discussion page for the city’s article page that I have set up.
Thank you. Ludahai 03:59, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

I can see that you have tried to talk with this user before. Perhaps you can help me with this then?—Ryūlóng (竜龍) 04:03, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Single use templates
Greetings Krm500,
I seen that you started working on Template:Infobox Gothenburg instead of User:Krm500/Sandbox2. I don't know if you were using the new template as a sandbox or not, but you should insert the infobox city template at the beginning of the Gothenburg article and not create a new single use template. We've been trying to delete such templates. What you have done looks pretty good and you should insert it into the article and work on it from there. If you need help with anything let me know. —MJCdetroit 20:40, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- Moved from User talk:MJCdetroit for continuity purposes.
- The thing is that the numbers in the infobox arn't correct and I havn't been able to edit them yet. When I have the correct stats and figures I will add it to the Gothenburg article. --Krm500 21:03, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
Oh, ok. It is a bit confusing. How about using ## or XX as place holders? —MJCdetroit 14:03, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
I seen that you inserted the {{Infobox Gothenburg}} at the beginning of the Gothenburg article. I don't know if you completely understood what I was talking about above so I edited the Gothenburg article and place Infobox Gothenburg up for deletion. Regards, MJCdetroit 18:26, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Ronniesundin.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ronniesundin.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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 Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Chowbok ☠ 02:30, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Even with the promophoto tag, it's still fair use. We really need a freely-licensed photo instead. Somebody could go to a game and take a picture of him and release it under an appropriate license, or write him or his agent and ask for one. —Chowbok ☠ 04:33, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chowbok RfC
I have begun RfC procedures for User:Chowbok. Since you've had previous disputes with him about image uploads, maybe you'd like to add your commentary? [1] TheQuandry 02:59, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Eriksson Loui.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Eriksson Loui.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Regarding edit(s) to ComHem
Hello, Krm500. I'd like to just tell you that additions like this one are not encyclopedic, be it true or not. The same goes for these edits a few hours later by an anon IP which incidentally happens to be used by an ISP in the same city that I believe you (as well as me...) live in. A forum is not a reliable source (WP:RS, WP:V) and neither are Google searches considered to be sources. If you find a few reliable sources (for example newspaper articles) that state that many of Com Hem's customers think that the ISP is a joke, feel free to add the information and sources back to the article in an appropriate section (named for example "Criticism"). – Elisson • T • C • 00:07, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- [copied from User talk:Johan Elisson]
- I'll try to find a better source then, and all edits are done by me, I have just switched to a new broadband recently. I made those edits in response to that ComHem probably has used Wikipedia for marketing purpouse, which shouldn't be done.--Krm500 16:26, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- [end copy]

- Where has Com Hem used Wikipedia for marketing purposes? I've gone through the whole history of the article and can't find a single version that looks like advertising. Either way, I don't see how adding statements such as "ComHem are generally considered as a big joke by their customers." helps the article not look like advertising. Good luck finding a good source, though. And you can respond here, I watch the page. – Elisson • T • C • 17:22, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Swedish Wikipedia was edited by an anonymous user that had insider information. Maybe it wasn't the best idea but the company is well know for ridiculously long waiting on the phone and bad communication with their customers.--Krm500 23:21, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
Btw, do you know the official name of Läppstiftet? I had one article on my watchlist and yesterday I found another article but with another name. The articles should be merged but what is the official name? The two articles are Skanskaskrapan and GötheborgsUtkiken.
- The official name is AFAIK Skanskaskrapan. I believe GötheborgsUtkiken is the name for the restaurant at the top floor. I've merged the histories of the articles and rewritten the article a bit at Skanskaskrapan. – Elisson • T • C • 16:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
