Hi AB-me, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions to the coolest online encyclopedia I know of =). I sure hope you stick around; we're always in need of more people to create new articles and improve the ones we already have. You'll probably find it easiest to start with a tutorial of how the wikipedia works, and you can test stuff for yourself in the sandbox. When you're contributing, you'll probably find the manual of style to be helpful, and you'll also want to remember a couple important guidelines. First, write from a neutral point of view, second, be bold in editing pages, and third, use wikiquette. Those are probably the most important ones, and you can take a look at some others at the policies and guidelines page. You might also be interested in how to write a great article and possibly adding some images to your articles.

Be sure to get involved in the community – you can contact me at my talk page if you have any questions, and you can check out the village pump, where lots of wikipedians hang out and discuss things. If you're looking for something to do, check out the community portal. And whenever you ask a question or post something on a talk page, be sure to sign your name by typing ~~~~.

Again, welcome! It's great to have you. Happy editing! --Spangineer (háblame) 15:17, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Royal League-final

Hi. The stadium of the Royal League-final is not chosen. It will be one of the two finalists there will hold the final.

Oh, ok. AB-me 15:29, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Viasat Sport Divisionen-projekt

Hi AB-me

I would love to enjoy your Viasat Sport Divisionen-projekt. I have also made a lot of wiki-pages about Danish football. Kalaha 19:26, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Go on then, enjoy :) If you have any insider-information about any of the teams, feel free to add it to the articles :) /AB-me (chit-chat) 22:19, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Would you help me?

Hi AB-me.

I am making a national handball project, but with my first site User:Kalaha/Denmark women's national handball team will it not be this template but this one. Do you know why? Kalaha 15:14, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Answered. /AB-me (chit-chat) 13:49, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Hej. Det er fordi at den tror min 'template'n er den der hedder Template:National football team og ikke User:Kalaha/National handball team selvom at jeg har skrevet {{User:Kalaha/National handball team}} til at starte med. Derved linker den til fodboldsider i stedet for håndbold sider. Kalaha 14:05, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Hey hey... det var nok bare en midlertidig fejl så nu er det som det skal. Undskyld ulejligheden. Kalaha 14:08, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Ok cool - foresten, ved du så at enjoy betyder at nyde? Din brugerside giver ikke rigtig mening... ;) /AB-me (chit-chat) 14:14, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Viasat Sport Divisionen-project

Hi AB-me,

Just happened to come across your userpage and saw the great work that you're doing on the club articles. Now, I will not claim to know too much about Danish football (certainly not more than you, I'm sure), but its a subject I'm interested in, and I wanted to know if I could work with you. For starters, I could maybe look at the grammar and language a bit, if you want. Do lemme know if you'd like me to help. Thanks! -Aabha (talk) 14:15, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Hi again..just thought I'll add the fact that I don't know Danish, the language! -Aabha (talk) 14:20, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Yep sure, you can help - that'd be great! :) /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:51, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Viasat Sport Divisionen-project

Hej nice work on the VS Division, perhaps we should update the Superleague aswell :-) Ølstykke FC is now online. VH Tue--Tuelund 01:19, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Isn't the superliga alright? /AB-me (chit-chat) 17:57, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] VSD-project - should they be moved out?

Should we move the VSD-proposal pages out as "real articles"? The reason I ask is because the logos could be deleted, as it happened with the Kolding FC-logo, as long as it is in the User:-namespace. The only downside that I can see, is that we lose the User:AB-me/VSD-template, but that can be replaced by a template (like Template:Danish Superliga. /AB-me (chit-chat) 15:24, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Obviously, those already nice articles would have to be merged gently ;) Would be nice to get some feedback though. Say, if there isn't anything when I wake up tomorrow, I'll just be bold and start merging and moving /AB-me (chit-chat) 02:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi AB-me,

I think /AB and /Kolding FC are perfectly ready to be moved out and merged with the "real articles", as you say:) I have made slight edits to both of them, just minor language changes, so do have a look. -Aabha (talk) 19:39, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Patronymic

Hi, can you please see the discussion at Patronymic? If you know the subject, can you please make corrections accordingly? Thanks.

[edit] .eps -> .png?

Hej AB-me. De logoer du down/uploader fra Brands of the world, hvordan laver du dem om fra .eps til .png? Ved mig vil Microsoft Picture It! ikke åbne .eps filerne. Kalaha 09:06, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Det var også lidt af en hovedpine for mig, men via wiki-artiklen på EPS fandt jeg GSview. Først åbner jeg filerne med den, og så laver jeg det fuld skærm (F4) og finder billedet vha. piletasterne (der er en masse hvid spildplads udenom). Så tager jeg et screenshot og sætter det ind i paint, hvor jeg beskærer billedet (edit: og indsætter baggrundsfarve). Derfra copy/paster jeg det til IrfanView, hvori jeg gemmer det i PNG og vupti - et stk.s logo. Der er helt sikkert en nemmere måde at gøre det på, men jeg har ikke lige kunnet finde den endnu :) /AB-me (chit-chat) 11:53, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Okay, jeg opgiver. Efter utallige forsøg på at få lavet Dalums logo om indser jeg at jeg hellere må overlade det til dem der kan finde ud af det. Kalaha 20:51, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Alternativt kan du jo også bare beskære selve thumbnailen i paint og så gemme den i IrfanView... /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:02, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Her er lige noget du kan gå igang med ;D. Holbaek, Naestved, Stenlose BK, Aarhus Fremad, Dalum, Hjorring IF, Jetsmark & Kalundborg GB Kalaha 16:34, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Ok - jeg uploader logoerne - du skriver artiklerne? :D /AB-me (chit-chat) 16:42, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Fair nok. Kalaha 18:27, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Three down, five to go: Image:Holbæk_B&IF.png, Image:Næstved BK.png, Image:Stenløse BK.png /AB-me (chit-chat) 17:44, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
Hvad med de næste bliver nogle jyske klubber? Jeg har lagt mærke til du mest er til de sjællandske ;). Gerne nogle gode nordjyske (Jetsmark og Hjørring). Kalaha 19:59, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
Det er helt tilfældigt, er jo endda selv jyde... Søger bare efter logoerne på brandsoftheworld /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:55, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
Ved du om der findes et program der kan lave baggrunden i fx. et logo om fra hvid til transparent? Kalaha 14:01, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Irfanview - både mht. til PNG (som ikke er fuldt understøttet i IE, men stadig anbefales til logoer) og GIF. /AB-me (chit-chat) 14:10, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
Jeg synes ikke rigtigt du kommer videre... Har du ikke haft tid? I hvert fald har jeg ikke tid til noget som helst i hele uge 10. Kalaha 21:32, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
Jeg har haft så travlt her indtil 3. marts, og så er jeg måske kørt lidt træt i det. Jeg skal se hvad jeg kan gøre, men der bliver nok ikke lige noget i aften... Lavede en stor edit på Danmark Rundt i går, og det er nok der min motivation ligger i øjeblikket /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:35, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hjørring IF

Hej. Den eneste divisionsklub der ikke har en artikel er Hjørring IF. Jeg har ikke lavet den, fordi jeg ikke har et logo. Der er ikke et logo på HQFL (som af en eller anden grund ikke længere bliver opdateret), men der er en på Brandsoftheworld. Det direkte link til det står lige her oppe over, så hvis du ville lave det, laver jeg artiklen. kalaha 14:14, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Det manglede da bare - den er nu oppe på Image:Hjørring_IF.png. /AB-me (chit-chat) 16:21, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use

Do not place (football) logos in templates as this is not fair use. The logos should only be used once, on the club's main article. ed g2stalk 14:16, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Per Template:Logos, which states that "It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of logos to illustrate the corporation, sports team, or organization in question (...) qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law," I don't think putting the logos in the three templates you've removed them from is anything else. /AB-me (chit-chat) 16:12, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Crossing a flag

I would like to ask you not to cross an official flag on your user page. Imagine someone did that to the Danish flag. This is even considered a crime in many countries. I just regard that as bad manners. I am sure you are able to express your reasonable opinion in a respectful way. ROGNNTUDJUU! 20:43, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Geez - I have to say I don't understand your opinion. I merely see that (former) template as a humorous way indicating your political standpoint (see the expression "about as far as he can throw it"?). I also believe there is difference in crossing a national flag and any other flag (such as the European Union's), although I don't get offended if I were to see Dannebrog crossed (I don't even care about people who are angry about the Muhammad drawings burning it off - at all) unless it is in the sense of saying: "No Swedes (for example) here". Anyway, I don't see how crossing a flag is disrespectful. But then again, I can only speak for myself, and you can only speak for yourself. /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:21, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for answering. I do not speak just for myself, as I already pointed out, it is even considered a crime in many countries to vilify official symbols. Some countries had to work real hard to make it to the EU. Why don't you just write a short line about your objections against it? That would be respectful. ROGNNTUDJUU! 21:27, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
(Note: I looked up "vilify" (which, in turn linked to defamatory) in Wiktionary before writing this.) I don't think crossing a flag is vilifying. (In that case, I feel sorry for the people of Scotland, for insulting the color blue (joking).) I'm not minorizing certain countries' effort to get into the EU, all I'm saying is that I think that EU generally is bad. And I have chosen to express it conveniently with a userbox. That's all. If you can find a image that represent the same opinion in a less vilifying way, please do insert it. Maybe "EU" would be less vilifying? /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:43, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Crossing official symbols is considered vilifying. Crossing letters is not. I would find it more appropriate if you expressed what you do not like about the EU - there are many good reasons. If you just have a crossed flag people may think you disrespect Europeans. ROGNNTUDJUU! 21:47, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Okay, two things: 1) I am a European. A lot of Europeans dislike the EU. A lot of people like the EU. The people who like the EU respect the people who dislike the EU's opinion about the EU, regardless of how they express it. 2) Crossing a flag isn't vilifying, in my opinion. Putting a cross on something merely says "I disapprove this". I would say that, in any case, crossing a flag is using Freedom of Speech, which the EU endorses. Thus, the EU endorses the right to strike a cross on the EU-flag. My conclusion: I don't think something is vilifying unless the nation/union/company thinks so. And in this case, it doesn't. /AB-me (chit-chat) 22:09, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
I am very sorry that you do not see that many people are upset if an official symbol of something that represents them is crossed. ROGNNTUDJUU! 22:21, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Don't be. I ain't. Besides, the European Flag represents the Union itself (the political cooperation) rather that all of the people living within the borders of it. /AB-me (chit-chat) 22:29, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
The EU flag represents a political entity just as national flags do. People who identify with it might be offended if you cross it. Especially when there are so many respectful ways to express your fully legitimate opinion. I guess we have to agree to differ. ROGNNTUDJUU! 22:31, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
I agree. Let's get on with writing this encyclopedia! /AB-me (chit-chat) 22:35, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "soccer"/"footy" SFD

Thanks for the comment on SFD on "footy-stub". Obviously it won't do much good as regards the "voting" aspect, but nonetheless extremely apt, and it certainly did my morale some good. Alai 04:12, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

No problem :) /AB-me (chit-chat) 12:18, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:TV 2 Nyhedskanalen.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:TV 2 Nyhedskanalen.png. 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] Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)#Regarding notability of Football (soccer) players

Hi, seeing you are interested in football this is an invitation to contribute to this discussion to clarify certain issues about football player notability. I think clearer guidelines are needed to avoid repeated inappropriate nominations for deletion and time consuming discussions. Cheers! StephP 19:53, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My edits on the Danish 1st Division 2006-07

Regarding the footnote, it was not removed, it was just moved. With the reference information in the standings, it was confusing to edit, as there was just too much wording there. I changed the format of the footnote, and you can get the link at the bottom of the standings.

The second one: The teams are being promoted to the Superliga, not just for that season. They could stay up, so it's not exclusive for the 2007-08 season. I personally feel that the rest of the articles should be edited to the same format as the First Division, because in my mind, it's more accurate. If you wanted to have the same link as before, that being Danish Superliga 2007-08, you could phrase it like..."The teams promoted will take part in the 2007-08 season of the Danish Superliga." That's more grammatically and factually correct. Che84 23:34, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
