[edit] National Defense Reserve Fleet

Thanks for adding the Nautical Portal. It is a most excellent thing. The link to the portal is positioned on the far right of the screen, which IMHO makes it less easy to notice. I'm wondering if that's by design, or an errer, or ??? Lou Sander 19:56, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the nice feedback, Lou. By "the link", do you mean the button in the "See also" section of United States Merchant Marine? Though I think you have a point, that template is designed to align right, and is consistent with most other portal links. Cheers. Haus42 22:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shipping

Great work on adding and expanding to the ship descriptions. MadMaxDog 04:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback! The Shipping page is a real head-scratcher for me. Ships are one small aspect of the shipping industry, but they dominate the shipping page. At least now, they do it in style, eh? Haus42 16:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Organized Labour

Hi Haus42, I saw your name at the project and thought I would say hello, and welcome. I saw your great work with the maritime union articles like Sailor's Union of the Pacific. Don't hesitate to let people at the project know about any new articles you start, that way they can add them to their watchlists. (List them at Wikipedia:WikiProject Organized Labour#New Wikipedia articles related to Organized Labour) Cheers. --Bookandcoffee 20:27, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks very much. As soon as I can sort out which ones I started and when, I'll pop them onto the list. I took some time last night and did some sketching on what a Labour Portal would look like. It's all very tentative, but it seems best to solicit input at a very early stage. Cheers. Haus42 16:40, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] For your Nautical efforts

The Society Barnstar
This Barnstar is awarded for your efforts in developing the Nautical Portal and articles in the navigation, merchant marine, and maritime trade union subjects. Good job, shipmate! -- Pesco 04:06, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the BZ, and my first barnstar shipmate! I'm so touched, I won't even make fun of the Coast Guard. :) Since I'm stuck on the beach for a while, I've been kicking around the idea of creating a project structure for the nautical stuff. Does that seem interesting at all? Haus42 17:03, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Ha, please don't let a mere barnstar stop Coastie jokes... as long as they're new ones! I haven't been able to get on WP like I've wanted to lately, but thanks for inviting me to check out various pages. I really wanted to give you that award because you've done the things I wish I had time to do. You've brought a lot of cohesion to all things shipping. -- Pesco 03:29, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Maritime trades

Thanks for the invitation. I'm currently a student in the portuguese merchant navy academy, and I'll be looking foward to work in this project. Yosy20:00, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks mr. Mate :) I'll look around the articles, see what info needs to be added, removed, etc. If you can, give me your email in my page - once I read it, I'll delete it. Yosy March 29 2007, 19:20 UTC

[edit] "Hi! My name is.. (huh?) My name is.. (what?)"

Good one, but alas, no, I can't take credit. Shades of Who's on First?, and numerous pastiches thereof. Other equally unintended associations are jai alai and Alai (Enderverse)... Alai 04:30, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

If you need something tell me. Do ou have somebody who speake french in your project? Perhaps we can do a coorperation beteewn our two projects. I don't know who but i think it's a good thing? So long. Cheers. CaptainHaddock 10:24, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
