[edit] Message from User:Innaa placed on your user page

Are you a scammer ? It is criminal to first more or less steal private information and thereafter refuse to give it back, distribute it etc. You do not give any permission that this site can use your pages, pictures etc. Of course the owner has the right to delete whatever he/ she has in his box and published on this site. Ownership o the data etc has not changed. Perhaps something to think of here, also for you ? It will come a new day tomorrow. Perhaps you want to wake up and see it clearer than it was for you yesterday ? And what about a serious consent ? According to the police consents cannot be given through the net at all. It is totally illegal. This is the last nail in the coffin, isnt't it. Just some chatting on this WWW —Preceding unsigned comment added by Innaa (talk • contribs)

[edit] Place_names_in_Irish

I was given to understand that Hawaii and Rhode Island were the same in Irish...I guess Picapica is fairly forceful in her beliefs. I was updating the above referenced article and found that these states had different names at S.A.M.. I put them in hidden comments. It's up to someone who knows better...

[edit] O'Rothlain or Ó Rothlain?

A few questions for you...

• 1. Is the Proper wiki-way to take an anglacized name (O'Rothlain) and change it to it's gaelic (Ó Rothlain)? Please reference Wikipedia:Manual of Style (Ireland-related articles)
• 2. Where did you get your definition of the name? You said it meant "decendant of Rothlan." Firstly you eliminated the "i" in O'Rothlain. Secondly where did this definition come from?

Rowlan 23:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sinn Féin & I.R.A.

Sinn Féin is the political wing of the I.R.A. in the same way that Herri Batasuna is the political wing of ETA. Therefore, they do follow, given the fact that they are in the same class of subhumanity as ZANU-PF & the Maori Party - lower than that of pigs & cattle! - (Aidan Work 03:54, 10 January 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Rugby union project

There's a Wikipedia:WikiProject Rugby union that you probably don't know about. The league equivalent is working quite nicely but the union one only has five participants. So I'm leaving messages on the talk pages of the main contributors. You don't have to sign up but your contribution would be welcomed.GordyB 10:57, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ó Róithleán

"I must admit that the translation might not be perfect, as I'm not sure whether Rothlan is just a name - it could be a title, occupation or something else. But the name does mean "grandson/descendant of [whatever Rothlan means]"."

Trust me on this, over nine out of any ten Irish surnames derive from a personal name of some sort, including nicknames. Smaller numbers are descriptive, occupational, but hardly any are derived from placenames. Having said that, I was myself looking for the original form of Rowland, and still have not satisfactorily come up with the original form. Seemingly a family from the lower classes of Gaelic society.

[edit] Decimal separator

Hi Kwekubo, I was reading the article Decimal separator and noticed some countries with sizeable populations not listed in the sections ¨Dot countries¨ and ¨Comma countries¨ including Ghana. So I thought I´d look up an Ghanaian Wikipedian and suggest that you add Ghana to which-ever category it belongs. Thanks, AussieDingo83 10:50, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

What are you doing to Irish Government Buildings? Government Buildings is a generic term that cannot be used because it is used in hundreds of countries. It will simply get shunted off of that page because it will be turned into a disamb page, and then someone is going to have have to go through all the links you've changed and change them all back again. Irish Government Buildings, the name the state uses for them internationally to avoid confusion, was used on WP, to avoid a disamb mess and broken links.

Ok, that was sort of an experiment to see whether anyone reads those comments but I've now gotten that out of my system, and it won't happen again. It was nice to get a response so quickly to a posting, albeit automatically generated. I want what I (visibly) wrote to be taken seriously, particularly considering the subject matter (that so-called history was historical fiction) so, yeah, no more jokey comments.

[edit] Dobedo

I deleted due to a lack of assertion of notability, and because it read as promotion spam, most notably with "Dobedo was NOT funded by advertising as this Wiki entry previously stated prior to revision. That was incorrect or at best incomplete information. Dobedo was funded by venture capitalists from its inception to its closure during the dotcom bust period around 2000. However, in the Swedish version of the site, ads were incorporated into the chat but that never happened in either the UK or German incarnations. In the UK, a deal was struck with MTV to provide the TV company with MTV-branded Dobedo chat rooms which led back from MTV to the Dobedo island but, unbelievably, no money ever exchanged hands. Dobedo gained nothing from the moneyless partnership and at the time many staff, particularly in the UK office which was known for being both the most radical and inventive branch of the company with its most senior editorial staff located in London, were at the time very angry at what they saw as the Swedish office going 'over their heads' and ignoring their advice about the deal." I'd be happy to provide you the text of the article if you want to revise it into something that asserts notability and makes a bit more sense. Phil Sandifer 01:39, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arms of UCD

Kwekubo, the most recent information I had to hand was that the 1911 arms are the official arms of the university, they are used on parchments and that the 1940s arms have been dispensed with (some anon also though that they were "too much" for the article). Maybe I am wrong but that was the situation when they recently introduced "UCD Dublin" logos, which is surprisingly over a year ago now. Djegan 01:42, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedians in Ghana?

Hi Kwekubo, do you actually live in Ghana, or know any Ghanaian Wikipedians? I'll be in Accra and Kumasi (actually heading from Lomé to Ouaga) the week after next and would love to meet some Wikipedians and discuss a project somehow similar to Wikipedia, osafa.org. --Helge 16:39, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ONH & IRAs

Hi Kwekubo, I noticed you moved Óglaigh na hÉireann (nationalists) to Óglaigh na hÉireann (Continuity IRA splinter group). While I do agree that all the groups calling themselves ONH are nationalists, I also find Óglaigh na hÉireann (Continuity IRA splinter group) to be rather long-winded. Perhaps something shorter, like Óglaigh na hÉireann (paramilitary)? Something related to note: though all the other IRAs also use the name ONH from time to time, the Independent Monitoring Commission refers to only this group as ONH. What do you think? Erin Go Bragh 21:41, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

I'd also appreciate it if you'd have a look at Template talk:IRAs. Erin Go Bragh 21:54, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

That'll work. How about Óglaigh na hÉireann (2006)? The hyphen just seems awkward. I'm splitting hairs here; I'll leave it to your disretion. Erin Go Bragh 02:05, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I.R.A. WikiProject?

Hi all, I'm rather new to the Wiki (just joined up a few days ago), but the whole WikiProject concept seems like an effective tool for gathering a group of people together to work on a specific subject. I'm primarily interested in contributing to areas related to Irish nationalism, and the Irish Republican Army, and I've noticed a few of you have quite a lot of involvement in the same area. So, I wonder if anyone would be interested in forming a WikiProject focusing on Irish Nationalism? Wikipeda:WikiProject Irish Republican Army seems like a good title to me! WP:WPIRA would be a great shortcut! I'm posting this up on many different pages, so I would especially appreciate it if, if you're interested, you would join me at User talk:Johnathan Swift#WikiProject IRA.

Hey. I noticed that you changed the picture on the userbox {{User suck}}. I changed it back, since I was a bit startled to see a picture of a breastfeeding baby on my userpage when I logged on this evening.

[edit] Molitva

Hi, re this do you know something I don't? NikoSilver 23:30, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

The real question, Niko, is whether you know something I don't! The song's page at the official Eurovision website clearly states, "Copyright European Broadcasting Union 2007. All rights reserved." Per WP:C, copyright material is not suitable for Wikipedia unless permission has been granted by the copyright holder; do you have proof that this is the case? --Kwekubo 00:10, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Honestly I found them in abundant links on the net.[1] Anybody who speaks Serbian can write the lyrics down by listening to the song. I did not copy them from Eurovision. If the Eurovision site holds a copy of -say- the national anthem of Greece, then we are not allowed to post it here? This is absurd. NikoSilver 00:24, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Anyway, I removed it for now pending copyright status clarification. NikoSilver 00:33, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

You can find lyrics to almost any pop/rock song on the internet. That doesn't in itself mean that the songs are free of copyright, or that they are in the public domain; it probably means that the sites hosting the song are using it without permission. Explicit permission is required from the copyright holders in order for the song to be licensed under the GFDL - this is understandable, as it would mean anyone could make use of the song for any purpose without restriction. --Kwekubo 00:38, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

So, printed lyrics are copyrighted? I thought only within the context of a (any) song they were. Is this correct? I understand how lyrics may be abused, but in an encyclopedia? Maybe this particular subject should be clarified in WP:C, especially given their abundant existence in the web (obviously illegally too)? BTW I was triggered to insert them in molitva by a previous version of the article on Sarbel's Yassou Maria which I happened to see and contained the lyrics; only to be reverted later without me noticing it. NikoSilver 12:17, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello Kwekubo, thanks for the posting - I just requested this go back up, because it was deleted without me realising before.

[edit] EYP

Hello Kwekubo. I am again deleting a part of my own contrib on European Youth Parliament. There are several reasons for that. One of them is that the original version of my draft (that you re-established) is a lot less objective than the later version, giving only negative details about the organisation. One other reason is that I realised that there were inaccuracies in my relating of the events that happenned back then. I need time to find out what exactly happenned, and to make a new draft with a more objective and accurate description of the events. In the meanwhile, I do not want to leave these inaccuracies on, which is why I shortened the paragraph. If you could contact me on my talk page before doing something like re-re-instating the original version, I would appreciate it. Tailindil 22:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] SJA Logo

While I now understand the reson for your persistent reversion of my edits to include the SJA logo, I dislike the method you used to get your point across. Reverting is usually only used to get rid of vandalism - if you disagree with something, it is usual just to edit it and remove it, or even revert it but state it as a removal in the comment. Constant reverting results in edit wars, and also makes the other contributor look like a vandal. Better still, fully explain your reason for deletion in the comments first time round - I actually thought that the page I was editing was the only SJA page here, as it's illogical to have it split up as it is. TheIslander 23:03, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, sorry for the hassel. I just find the term 'revert' rather grating, as appart from all else I'm sure I've read somewhere that it should be used only for 'negative' things, like vandalism. I see no problem with just saying "Removed, as blah blah blah...". Still, thanks for replying ;) TheIslander 00:27, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orthography / typography

Hi, Kwekubo. I've no strong objection to your reverting Drong Átha Cliath to Drong Áṫa Cliaṫ at Irish Defence Forces cap badge. Would just point out, though, that this is a question more of typography than of orthography — have never seen the traditional "dot above" for séimhiú used in a non-traditional typeface. -- Picapica (talk) 19:00, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Blackrock crest.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Blackrock crest.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 03:57, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Irish Wikipedia

Hi. I'd just like to disavow (correct word?) ownership of ga:User:Sceptre. Is it possible to get the account renamed if it starts vandalising, so I don't get accused of vandalism? Will ^(talk) 16:39, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

It would be nice if you could activate your mail account on ga:wp so that other users, who want to let their usernames renamed, can contact you. Thanks, —DerHexer (Talk) 18:01, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Impostor

Hi, Der Hexer suggested I come and talk to you; http://ga.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Speisialta:Log&user=JzG is an impostor, definitely not me, and the case choice makes it pretty clear this is not an accident. Whether I should ask to usurp or simply ask that you block it as an impostor, I don't rightly know - although I have some Irish ancestry I speak no Gaelic. Guy (Help!) 00:18, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Hello, DerHexer also suggested I talk to you. I do not control the "Keilana" account over there, and would appreciate your changing the name if it does anything, as I'm not associated with it. I don't have a ga.wiki account, and considering that I don't speak any Gaelic, I doubt I will, but if you need me to create an account, just ask on my talk and I'll create a temporary username to usurp it. Thanks, Keilana|^{Parlez ici} 00:47, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Looks like we have a spree of en Wikipedia names being created at ga -- odd. I'd also like to confirm that the account there is not me and unfortunately my language skills aren't up to a high enough level that usurping would do any good :) If you could block the account though as an imposter, I would be grateful. Thanks. Shell ^babelfish 02:44, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

That's true, please have a look at the log. But it's not needed to block the accounts—I've blocked them all yesterday. Regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 09:05, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
