[edit] Template:Swiss Confederation
Hi, Odengatan. You have recently replaced the infobox on Switzerland with a template {{Swiss Confederation}}. Is there any special reason why you did it ? Since the infobox is very unlikely to be used on any other page, putting it in a template does not bring any benefit — on the contrary, it probably uses a bit more ressources from the Wikipedia servers when the page is rendered. If you don't have any objection, I'll list the template on Wikipedia:Templates for Deletion; since your change has been reverted, having two copies of the infobox around will become confusing if one is modified and the other not. Cheers, Schutz 08:42, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- On second thought, I have listed the template already, and I let you comment at Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2006 July 8 if you think it should be kept. Best, Schutz 09:33, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks and regards, Odengatan 11:02, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Sten-Rudholm.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Sten-Rudholm.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}}, 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 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 ☠ 04:02, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trinity Cathedral, St. Petersburg
Hi there. Why don't you split Russo-Turkish War Memorial column into a separate article? The monument is not an integral part of the cathedral. --Ghirla -трёп- 15:21, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- Seems fair enough, we'll have the article split! Odengatan 16:50, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- I suggest we move the article to Glory Column or Column of Glory, for disambiguation reasons. --Ghirla -трёп- 18:31, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
-
- Well, usually, I support litteral translations like articles I started: Monument to Alexander II instead of the Alexander II Memorial, and Moscow Triumphal Gates which actually sound a bit dyslectic... But, even though Column of Glory is the correct translation, the term seems quite disambigious in a Wikipedia perspective. The world is full of Columns of Glory - and something like Column of Glory (Trinity Cathedral, Saint Petersburg) doesn't make much sense. If you disagree you can always move the article. Odengatan 20:23, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
- By the way, I can't find the article about Stasov's twin military cathedral, that of the Saviour's Transfiguration. Can you take care of this? --Ghirla -трёп- 18:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
-
- Sure, I'll see to it.... And do you think you can write a couple of words about the new monsterious Gazprom HQ to be build near the historic center of St. Petersburg? Odengatan 20:36, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
