[edit] Napier's bones
Need to add stuff on square and cube roots, also Genaille-Lucas rulers and the Napier abacus.

I finished the entry here adding the cubic roots. Guillermo 02:52, 7 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Hi Kbs, I don't know if someone is translating the spanish entry as you asked for in the discusion page of the Napier's bones; if not, I can try to do so this weekend if is useful for you. Maybe my english is a little better than your spanish (surely no) Also if you need pictures I can draw them (for your explanations of course) without problem.
That's a very generous offer, thanks! My vote is for you to translate any sections (including replacing the square root portion that I wrote) that you find the time to do. This will make everything stylistically consistent, as my edits look too verbose compared to the rest of it.
Best regards,

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Rabdology Cover Page.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rabdology Cover Page.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Carl (CBM · talk) 02:48, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
