[edit] Deepika Padukone Pic

Hello, this is sreerajarasa (talk) Sorry for replying late about you inquiring the authenticity of Deepika Padukone Pic uploaded by me. I will be very happy to provide you a larger version of the pic along with the date and place where the photo was taken. But since it's my private photo of my friends wedding I cannot just share with anyone and everyone. So it's a humble request that could you please testify your role in Wikipedia admin group?? If not, then I will only send a very very low resolution version of the full pic since it wouldn't be fair on my friends part sharing a high quality pic of his wedding. Please do let me know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sreerajarasa (talk • contribs) 18:53, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Babylon" template

Hi, your {{Babylon}} template seems to be an unnecessary copy of {{Babel}}. Do you mind if we deleted it? Thanks, Fut.Perf. ☼ 10:06, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I was looking for it but couldn't find it. Didn't know it's with the short name, so I decided to create it. You can send my copy straight to the Heaven since it is completely unnecessary. --Soft needed (talk) 10:11, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay, done. And by the way...:

[edit] Image uploads

Hello, your Image:Chindjovo 006.jpg doesn't really look as if you took it yourself, it seems to be a picture postcard or something. Can you clarify please? Note that "self-made" licensing may only be used for images that you created completely yourself (i.e. you are the photographer). Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:56, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

What proof shall I provide? I can send you the original photo that I took with my camera so you will be able to see that it is not a post card. Does this suffice? --Soft needed (talk) 15:42, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Hmm, in that case, we'll probably have to take your word for it. Then, congratulations, as it's really a very nice photograph. If you don't mind, it would actually be great if you could upload a high-resolution version, and preferably one without the black frame. Sorry for being suspicious, but we get all sorts of crappy image uploads under false licenses all the time. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:29, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Here it is Image:Chindjovo 006 original.jpg --Soft needed (talk) 20:19, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Nice, thank you! I've taken the freedom of putting it on the Falakro page. Fut.Perf. ☼ 08:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kosovo

Hi Soft needed! In order to avoid endless edit wars, the article International reaction to the 2008 Kosovo declaration of independence has been rather strict about which countries to list as having formally recognized Kosovo. I understand that Bulgaria, Croatia and Hungary have not yet formally recognized Kosovo, but will do so within the next 24 hours. Not before that has formally happened, we should list the countries accordingly. Best, --Camptown (talk) 11:24, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Hmm... According to this, the formal recognition seems to have taken place after all... --Camptown (talk) 11:32, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unreliable source.

Geocities is unreliable. Maybe you can find the book on google books? · AndonicO ^Engage. 12:22, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Heh, that website can be uploaded on a thousand places. The information is not copyrighted or is, but free distribution is allowed. In that sense I could design some nice interface, copy the contents and upload the website on a nice server with nice domain name. Does this make the book reliable source? I couldn't find it on Google Books, but here I post a photo of the front cover [1]. --Chech Explorer (talk) 12:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

You could use {{cite book}}, and not post a link, but if you think it's necessary, go ahead. · AndonicO ^Engage. 12:42, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you! --Chech Explorer (talk) 16:02, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
