[edit] Wikipedia:Spanish Translation of the Week

I would like to revive this project. I noticed that you've added yourself to the list of available Spanish-to-English translators. Are you interested in working on Spanish Translation of the Week? — J3ff 06:24, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)

There are a few untranslated phrases in this article: Origin of the name California. Do you think you can help translate the remaining phrases? The untranslated phrases are marked in red. — J3ff 20:36, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm not a native Spanish speaker. Thanks for taking the time to go through it. — J3ff 01:15, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

So, for translating articles it's good to have a link in the references section of the article stating that the article you translated is based off an article in another language. Many people translate by copying the text to a temporary page to work on the article before merging it with the main text. Or you can do it the way we do for Spanish translation of the Week, copying all the text into the article. If you have any more questions feel free to ask me — J3ff 10:32, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Toasty

Hello! Just came across your article, and I LOVE it! Fond memories aside, though, are you still planning to use this image in the article? It's currently an orphan. --InShaneee 03:54, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Game Over - Mike Ditka.jpg

This image should not belong to Game Over (film) because it does not come from the film. It was photographed at a basketball court. Not fair use anyway. adnghiem501 02:02, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Ah, but it -did- come from the movie! It comes from a sequence which uses footage from that football game. Basically, the main character is being led into the team's lockerroom, and everyone's giving words of advice (or warning) to him. Mike Ditka shows up and speaks to the character a few times during the sequence. Also, there's football players in the background of the picture, not basketball players. :) All the images I added when I created the article were taken from the film. Why don't you consider it fair use? It came from the DVD, and in my opinion it helps illustrate the fact that the movie uses footage from games that have nothing to do with the other (except for the company that made them). - Kitsune Sniper / David Silva 02:16, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
An article, Mike Ditka, does not have information about his film. You need to add that information to the article. adnghiem501 02:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
The movie isn't even mentioned on his IMDB listing! The footage, as stated on the Game Over article, comes from the game Quarterback Attack. The movie used footage from that game and a few others. I don't believe that it's my place to add info on Game Over to Mike Ditka, due to the fact that the article doesn't have information on his acting career. I feel it'd be best to wait until others add info on that, than leave a half-done job.

Anyway, I saw that you readded Walter Koenig, so I guess I'll leave this alone then. Ditka only has a cameo, so I figure it's best for him to not be mentioned there. Sorry for all the ruckus! - Kitsune Sniper / David Silva 02:55, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Because of your input on previous music AfDs, I was hoping you would take a look at this article and provide your thoughts on whether or not it meets WP:MUSIC its latest AfD. PT (s-s-s-s) 00:25, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
