[edit] translation

There is an enormous backlog at Wikipedia:Translation into English#French-to-English, more than for all other languages combined. I see you are signed up at Wikipedia:Translators_available#French-to-English. Would you be at all interested in taking on one of these articles? (Full disclosure: this is a bit of a "mass mailing", I'm working my way down the whole list of French-to-English translators.) -- Jmabel 00:13, Oct 10, 2004 (UTC)

Of course... let's take a look on em.--euyyn 10:23, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] esTotW

Since you put your name down as a spanish to english traslator i thought you might be interested in the new Spanish translation of the week collaboration project. This weeks collaboration is Género chico.(Disclosure: this is a bit of a "mass mailing", I'm working my way down the list of Spanish-to-English translators.)

[edit] Wikipedia:Spanish Translation of the Week

I would like to revive this project. I noticed that you've added yourself to the list of available Spanish-to-English translators. Are you interested in working on Spanish Translation of the Week? — J3ff 06:19, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] FTP Talk Page

May I ask why you chose to modify the signature on your message on the FTP Talk Page to point to a non-existent page? The purpose of signatures is to identify the user, if you modify them it renders the process null and void. I have reverted the change. Martin Hinks 16:27, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, I find it more usefull to use "what links here" from my user page to review my posts than keeping a watchlist :)

So when a post isn't interesting anymore (to me), I "remove it" from WLH

It's amusing you cared :)

Lol, I suppose so, I just wondered what was going on :p Doesn't matter really, guess I was bored and over zealous hrhr Martin Hinks 21:28, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

Hi Euyyn.

Post-object programming was deleted. Check its edit history. I then recreated it, as the redirect, thinking that it would dissuade people from recreating the article itself. If you really think the redirect is wrong, and will do more harm than good, take it to WP:RFD. Best, Proto///type 06:12, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] XIII° final provision of the Italian constitution

Till the 2002 the text said: "... former kings of Savoy, their wives and male descendant are forbidden to enter the italian territory..." This provision was written due to the contiguity between fascism and monarchy, that is said to have not taken the rights decisions to prevent fascism. In the 2002 the constitutional revision number 1, 23 october, erased the provision.

Sorry for my not good english.

[edit] Reconstructionism

I missed your edit to my personal page; another editor deleted it. However, the link that you put in was incorrect. Reconstructionist, in the way I was using the term, does not fit within theology, but rather a movement within historians in the latter half of the 20th century. Within academia there was/is a movement to review history using present social norms. In doing so, Thomas Jeffereson becomes a hypocrite, George Washington a dishonest oaf, etc. It is a method used primarily to marginalize Western European history and in particular, American history. If we are going to study history, I find it best to read historians of the day first and then follow them up with current analysis. It is true that history was written by the victors and thus should be analyzed, but it should not striclty be viewed through today's analysis. I apologize if this is a bit disjointed, but I think I hit the highlights of my intent. My statements are outside the use of the term for jewish history and all religion in general. Cheers.

[edit] French translation

Are you in progress of the translation French-to-English of the article concerning the Encyclopedia of Diderot ? [1]. I you need help, let me know.JeDi 19:53, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

It's my intention to help, but I have no time hehe My contributions are small ones by force. May I supose you are JeDi in fr.wp ?
Sorry, a typo. I wanted to say: "If you need help, let me know"... I don't want to engage myself in translating a whole article, I have no time for this.
You suppose well, but not editing much on this side. Again, let me know if you need help for small translation tasks.JeDi 19:00, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] President

Thank you for clarifying your objection; I will add, As an English term, which seemed obvious in context. I believe praeses is classical Latin, but that will take a little longer. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 17:50, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

it is, meaning governor of a province. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 20:45, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image on your User Page

Hello, I removed the image of an album cover that was on your user page. Sorry to do this but copyrighted images, such as a album cover, are only allowed on the page they are illustrating. If you look at the copyright tag for that image it contains the line, "solely to illustrate the audio recording in question." I left it as a text link. Tschuess, Naufana : talk 04:21, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry. It was there only because there's where I tested how to put it in Wiki. It stayed there only because I didn't care to remove it, since I didn't know about the copyright issue... --euyyn 11:32, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Smcafirst's Wikiholism

Hi Euyyn,

I am under 12 and actually I spend less time on Wikipedia now. I spend just over 2 hours. I am actually a social outcast (well, I do have a few friends), due to my natural shyness. People thinks I am a "nerd", as always study for tests, read a lot of books, etc. Oh well, that is just how life goes for me. It is difficult for me to get rid of my shyness.

Happy and (shy) editing,

[edit] Homeschooling and making friends

There are neighborhood kids, there are after-school activities (e.g. bowling, Little League, dance, music), there are parks. Anyway, who needs hundreds of friends? A handful is really enough for most people -- schools give you the illusion of lots of friends who are really only acquaintances. Many homeschoolers organize themselves to meet in parks during the school day, and in general homeschooled children are more open to making friends who are of different ages. It's certainly a topic that a homeschooling parent has to think about, but it's not that difficult to address. —Wahoofive (talk) 03:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Euynn, I saw your comments on the homeschooling page and I thought I would take a stab at addressing them. It sounds as though you don't know any homeschoolers, who I think are uncommon in Spain. Basically, the answer is twofold. The 'real' answer is that most homeschoolers make friends among the people they run into in their (quite various) activities: it isn't that they are locked in a basement all day, they are more likely going to the library, to private workshops, etc. I think it's fair to say that homeschoolers are apt to have friends across a wider age range than their in-school peers. The secondary answer, which is something of a 'tu quoque' fallacy, but remains compelling, is that kids in public schools may not have much of a leg up in making friends, either. I don't know how old you are, but I (at 30 years) have only 3 or 4 friends from my high school years, and I think I'm on the high end. I would guess that most people have none. So this raises a real question of whether schools, as they are currently constructed, are a good environment for developing friendships. Ethan Mitchell 21:53, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
