[edit] Allende
Plese take another look at [Talk:Salvador_Allende#V.C3.ADctor_Far.C3.ADas.2C_again]. I think I've now demonstrated pretty clearly Allende's thesis was misleadingly quoted. I'd be willing to restore much of what you wrote if we quote Allende accurately. -- Jmabel | Talk 00:06, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] italy
Hi, I changed the map back to its previous version (with Italy shown as having troops there) after your comment at Image talk:Multinational force in iraq countries.PNG (it had been changed a few days ago by someone else). Regards, --Astrokey44 15:01, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Are op-ed piece or blogs reliable?
I noticed your edit [1] to Hugo Chávez, now removed by someone else, and just wanted to comment that editorials are not as reliable a source as actual news items. You wrote:
As when he in his Christmas Eve TV broadcast, with an unambiguous reference to Jews, declared that "minorities, the descendants of those who crucified Christ, have taken over the riches of the world".
This appears to be an editing of two sentences in the original [2] talking about poverty and "why we need Christ"; the first also refers to descendants of those opposing Bolivar in the wars of independence and the United Fruit Company, who so far as I know are all definitively gentiles. The second goes something like:
A minority has commanded the riches of the world; a minority has taken the gold, silver, minerals, water, fertile soil and oil, and has concentrated the wealth in a few hands; less than the ten percent of the population of the world owns more than half of the wealth worldwide; more than half of the settlers of the planet are poor and every day there are more poor men throughout the world.
So I would say the comment is an unambiguous reference to military and economic imperialists and has nothing whatever to do with Judaism (Chávez frequently referring to Christ even when it's not Christmas). Pieces in the Opinion Journal are not news items or independent sources, uand are usally written to make some kind of political point; using them to illustrate the same point risks compounding any distortion. I'd be interested in any comments on this.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Beslan hospital.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Beslan hospital.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. feydey 14:40, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Responsibily for the Beslan school hostage crisis page question
Hi, I was removing an ambiguous link on this page, and noticed that it contained most of the same info already on the Beslan school hostage crisis page. Do you think it's reasonable to merge the two and not have them as separate pages? Ani td 19:58, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hi. I created the page to ship some of the information from the "Beslan school hostage crisis", which is growing too big, to this sub-page. But as soon as I did this, the edit was reverted by a user called Deenoe (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Beslan_school_hostage_crisis#Responsibily for the Beslan school hostage crisis). I was letting it stay for a bit, but eventually the "Responsibily for the Beslan school hostage crisis" either have to be deleted or the information from "Beslan school hostage crisis" deleted. Which do you think? Rune X2 21:00, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Budyonnovsk.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Budyonnovsk.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).
The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}
. If you have not already done so, please also include the source of the image. In many cases this will be the website where you found it.
Please specify the copyright information and source on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Lupo 10:28, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you, Rune X2
You have provided me with a ton of valuable information, as have some other folks. It will take awhile to absorb it all :-0 I certainly appreciate everything you've done in helping to make zombietime presentable. Thanks! Zombiefan 19:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Terrorism in country categories
I saw you created the Terrorism in Russia category a while back. A new user is upset by the use of the word terrorism and is removing categories from pages at random. I would appreciate it if you would take a look at, and consider reverting the user's edits to, East Turkestan Islamic Movement, Grey Wolves, and Kurdistan Workers Party. Thanks, KazakhPol 02:40, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Sergey Gritsevets, was selected for DYK!

[edit] Hizb ut-Tahrir
An anonymous user - most likely a registered user who frequently edits Hizb ut-Tahrir - is trying to whitewash this organization by removing a large chunk of information you recently added. KazakhPol 23:03, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Charles-Josuah Chaplin
Hi! I was looking at Charles-Josuah Chaplin, and I was wondering where you got the name from; it's spelled oddly. I found a book via Google Book Search that spells it the same way, but they might both be typos. The Library of Congress's authority records (you have to do a search; I can't link directly to the record) spell the name "Charles Joshua Chaplin". Where did you get the other spelling from? grendel|khan 14:12, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- I got it originally transcribed through Russian, so it might very well be wrong. But also a few art sites have it spelled in this way. However there seem to be vastly more google hits on your spelling so that one is probably correct. On the other hand the German wikipedia spells it with "Josuah". The French use neither.
