[edit] English pages on the Finnish Wikipedia
Hello!
Are you by any chance the same person as Reinthal on the Finnish Wikipedia? If not then I apologise.
Reinthal wrote the following on fi:Keskustelu:EuroVelo
- For Jniemenmaa -
- My aim is certainly not to put English pages on the Finnish wikipedia. People in Finland may want to put up a EuroVelo page but may not have the time. If this English page is there already they can use it as a template to help them start a Finnish version.
- Please give other people in your country the chance to make their own minds up as to whether they want to translate this page or not. I have done the same for some other European languages (Polish, Slovenian, see the Muut kielet in the sidebar) and within days people who see the aim of the wonderful pan-European EuroVelo project have given their valuable time to translate it.
- regards,

Please do not post english language text on the finnish wikipedia in the future. That is simply not the way it is supposed to work. Currently your article seems to have been replaced by a stub. -- Jniemenmaa 14:59, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Naming wars
Since you were either directly or indirectly once involved into edits revolving around "proper" naming of cities like Gdansk/Danzig etc i thought you may be interested in my proposition in User:Szopen/NamingWar. I would want to create a way aimed at stopping the revert wars in future - through creating something like a msg (in see also list or header) explaining that's there is compromise and why, and by linking to the article explaining changes of the statuses of the Royal Prussia province (I would prefer it ot have it as separate article, not scatter it in plethora other articles). I would be happy to hear from you. Szopen 09:17, 5 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
Thanks for tidying up Scalable Vector Graphics. It needed it. Amelia Hunt 20:07, Jan 4, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Eurovelomap.png
Hi! Thanks for uploading Image:Eurovelomap.png. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much, – Quadell (talk) (help) 21:16, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
