[edit] Be More Neutral
In future, try to be more neutral when creating a disambiguation page by redirecting the original page to the disambiguation page. Circumventing the disambiguation page using redirects makes life difficult for people who want to reach the disambiguation page, especially those using dialup, and makes it impossible for people who are unaware of what a disambiguation page is to find what they are looking for. --Badharlick 17:18, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
Sorry for that (I think it was in the Aes Dana page), but I didn't know how to change the redirect to the disambiguation page rather than the Aes Dana (band) page at that time. Hervegirod 22:18, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:VorkreistLogo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:VorkreistLogo.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] JFAC
Hi, I was wondering if it was alright for me to help edit the JFAC page in your user space - I have contacted the guy who suggested creating it here, asking what needs to be done before it can be added to its own page - here - I believe together we could improve the article so it is properly created. Thanks, AsicsTalk 12:05, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
- I've edited the page adding extra info etc. and now I have requested the real page to be unprotected. I hope everything is alright on the new edit, all the information is factual including a few tiny errors I found, most info was found on the metal archives website.

[edit] Lyapunov
Hello. I am minded to replace the article Alexander Liapounov, that you created, by a redirect to Aleksandr Lyapunov. which has a far more complete treatment. However, before I do so, I want to ask you for your opinion. Is there anything in your article that you want to save? -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 11:46, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
- No problem,in fact I read the article about Chaos theory, and I could not find anything in wikipedia about Lyapunov, although his works were very influential in this field. I decided to create an article on him, because I did not know there was already one (could not find Aleksandr Lyapunov). Hervegirod 13:55, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] P/Invoke
Hello. I created a page about blittable types in the .NET framework and I was looking for some constructive criticism or any additions or edits you might have. The reason I ask is because I saw that you contributed heavily to the P/Invoke page. Thank you for any help you might offer. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Masojus (talk • contribs) 01:52, 14 March 2007 (UTC).
No problem, I will look at it. But it will take maybe some time, as I will be on holidays next week - skying in the French Alps ;-) Hervegirod 22:42, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Two minor things
On the Platform Invocation Services page, you wrote that UINT is an alias for int. I'm afraid that's not the case: it's an alias for unsigned int, which is why it's written UINT and not INT. ;)
Also, I don't want to sound too nitpicky, but I notice you seem to have a tendency to put spaces before colons. That's not standard typographic practice in English, though, so I think it's better to just omit the space. :) - furrykef (Talk at me) 23:02, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
