[edit] Map of France

Merci du "heads up" - si le carte utilisé dans les articles "communes de France" est tout à fait correct, c'est celui-ci que je utiliserai pour corriger ce p'tit anomalie. Encore merci. THEPROMENADER 17:57, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] your username

Hi 16@r, Just to let you know, usernames containing "@" may cause some MediaWiki features to malfunction for you. See Wikipedia:Username#Inappropriate usernames. It's not a huge problem, but you may want to consider changing your username to make sure that the site works for you. Cheers, BanyanTree 02:12, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Everthing that has a beginning has an end

[edit] Wikipedia category

I noticed after creating my template that I had a similar idea to yours: {{Wikipedia category}} (mine is {{Wikipediacat}}). I propose you to remplace yours by mine if you mind. 16@r 00:45, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

There are others; I also created {{Template category}} and {{User category}} at the same time. I believe my naming (namespace category) is better; they also have a more limited scope (yours would subsume stub categories, for instance; mine would not be used for true article categories, redirects, templates, images, user pages, or several other non-article categories), which I believe is more useful. For instance, I would use {{User category}} on Category:Wikipedians. --cesarb 00:58, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
Yes it's also a good idea. Actually I'm happy to see I'm not the first who have tried to propose these template messages (btw maybe we should categorise them in the Category:Category header templates). My {{wikipediacat}} was also mainly intended to be the beginning of a reflection on how to distinguish "normal categories" and "selfref categories", so now we should think to the organisation of these kind of templates. I mean establishing a well-defined overview and try to get feedback of other wikipedians. Boa noite :). 16@r 01:20, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
I was not trying to propose them; I was trying to sneak them by the back door, one page at a time ☺. I also think it's useful to clearly distingish between "article" and "non-article" categories, mainly to help avoid things like user pages on article categories and other similar confusions (the pages themselves are already distinguished by their namespaces, but there is no such distinction within categories; the ugly "pseudo-namespace" Category:Wikipedia: was abandoned long ago). --cesarb 03:19, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
Don't worry for the back door, even if you don't tell it publicly I think that introducing a new model by putting it on some pages is also a way to propose it. You're absolutely right about namespaces and namespaces categories. But unfortunately I asked to MediaWiki's developers if it would be possible to have multiple categories (one type of category for each namespace) but they told it would be to long to develop it (though it's a good idea) so they're not gonna implement it right now. However even if "Category:Wikipedia:" has benn abandoned long ago, the advantage on en.wikipedia is that categories for non-articles pages are well nammed ("Category:Wikipedia XXX" or "Category:Template XXX"). So now I propose you it to develop your templates in order to make them more visibles like mine. I will begin with {{template category}} and you could tell me what you think of it. 16@r 08:57, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
Please use the template doc page pattern for template documentation whenever possible. Also, I think the longer name (namespace category) is much better; I just noticed the shorter name breaks down for at least {{user category}}, since {{usercat}} already exists with a different meaning (it's the header for user location categories, while mine would be for all user-related categories), and having all the templates with a common naming schema would make them easier to use. Also, {{{code}}} should be optional too (it should be possible to just add the template as a "marker" without having to think what to use as the parameters). --cesarb 16:25, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Biographical dictionaries

Hi-- I removed the "catmore" template from this category because catmore uses the name of the category article "Biographical dictionaries" which is then redirected to the article name for the topic which is "Biographical dictionary". So, best to just code it directly: "The main article for this category is Biographical dictionary". Cheers! --RCEberwein | Talk 20:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject France

Hello! We are a group of editors working to improve the quality of France related articles. You look like someone who might be interested in joining us in the France WikiProject and so I thought I'd drop you a line and invite you! We'd love to have you in our project :-) STTW (talk) 15:57, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Youtubescreen.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Youtubescreen.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Use of catmore

Hello. I just noticed that you placed a {{catmore}} on Category:Beauty pageants. I was wondering if this makes sense given that Beauty pageants is actually a redirect? --After Midnight 0001 12:58, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

If you prefer, we can replace it by {{catmore|Beauty contest}}, but I think it doesn't really matter, both are OK. 16@r 11:41, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
OK thanks. I guess unless someone changes the redirect it will make no difference. --After Midnight 0001 14:33, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Refresh AfD nomination

You appear to have been involved in the decision to make this page a disambiguation page. You may want to weigh in on its AfD nomination (and/or improve the page), as one of the nominator's reasons for nominating it was that it is a disambiguation page that lists only one active disambiguation term. Cheers. —Carolfrog 21:49, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
