Hello there, I'd like to welcome you to Wikipedia myself. I had a look at your contributions and found them intersting. Nico AKA Etz Haim 13:27, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks, but the List of English words of Greek origin is not really my work and I don't deserve any credit for it. I'll be experimenting with your "grconv" for a while, trying to combine it with [ia]spell. Etz Haim 15:08, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Need Help

The article vanavsos is up for deletion. Can you please help in this regard. Second, I am having difficulty with Wikinfo:Classical definition of republic and am having trouble on Talk:Republic because they won't allow an external link. It was deleted off of Wikipedia, and I believe it needs to come back on. A serious mistake in deleting this article. Thanks for your time.WHEELER 18:30, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] caliper

Just a belated reply to your caliper note and edit. I'd completely forgotten about their map and drafting usage, which just goes to show how much overlap there is in a tools usage. I also see now what you meant by swift, you only created that page three days ago! Graibeard 11:24, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Poll (Macedonian Slav or Macedonian)

I hope that this message is of interest to you, if not please accept my apologies. There is a poll in the talk page of the 'Macedonian Slavs' article here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Macedonian_Slavs#The_poll

Some people are lobbying for changing the article's name to Macedonians without any qualifier. As it seems, a number of these people come from the Macedonian/Macedonian Slav wikipedia project. It seemed only fair to attract the attention of people possibly from the other side of the story. Your contributions to the discussion and the poll are welcomed.

[edit] Wikipedians in Greece

Hi, I understand that you are either Greek Wikipedian or a Wikipedian living in/with an interest in Greece.

The category page Wikipedians/Greece has been replaced with Category:Wikipedians in Greece but your name still appears on the old list. You might considering moving it. You might also consider adding adding Template:Greekwiki to your user page.

A Wikipedia:Greek Wikipedians' notice board has been in existence for some time but is terribly underutilised. It would certainly benefit from your involvement.--Damac 12:12, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Lego model of alternating tread stairs

Thanks for the Lego model of alternating tread stairs. Can you please join the discussion at Talk:Stairway on the accuracy of it? Thanks. Samw 04:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Congratulation for the new image of alternating tread stairs. Now it shows exactly the advantage of this Stair. Can you upload this image in the commons so i could integrate this Image in the German Page Treppe. Greetings from Ronaldo (German WP) --84.170.249.68 02:57, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] lists, etc.

Sorry — but there was no sign that that was what was going on. The List of Greek people article overlapped a number of other lists, and just one link was to a category, hence my actions. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 23:29, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Γεια

  • Σε είδα στο Macedonia (terminology). Διάβασα και το site σου. Έχεις σχέση με τον συνονόματό σου Ίωνα στην Uniesse/KEM? Στη φωτογραφία μοιάζετε πάντως... :-) NikoSilver 10:50, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Ναι, αδελφός μου είναι. Στείλε μου email. --Diomidis Spinellis 11:11, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Good work

Hello. I once used one of your programs and found it useful, then I learnt more about you through your books, the Wikipedia article on you, and your website, and now I find you editing on Wikipedia. Keep up your good work! NerdyNSK 01:26, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] OLPC

Sorry for the bounced email, it was because of bad configuration of my new IMAP server combined with lots of spam, and I have fixed it now. I am happy to learn that you are trying to contribute to the OLPC project. I will consider creating a Greek demo in Squeak if I find time, I think it would be interesting. What kind of contributions do you make to the OLPC effort? NerdyNSK 16:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for your support

As you set out for Ithaka, hope the voyage is long
Knowledge is your destiny, but don't ever hurry the journey
May there be many summer mornings when
With what pleasure and joy, you come into harbors seen for the first time

Don't expect Ithaka to make you rich. Ithaka gave you the marvelous journey
And, if I, one of your fellow-travellers, can offer something
To make this journey of yours even more fascinating and enjoyable
This is my assistance with anything I can help.
