[edit] Cities of South Korea thanks you

Excellent work. You fixed a number of links, grammar mistakes, and added some pictures in a single edit. The article is much more professional looking now. Thank you. I sometimes have trouble remembering which spelling is more accepted in relation to certain cities and especially in recognizing that Pocheon and Bucheon might be the same place. Very good. I welcome any further additions you would like to add. They are currently listed by population, but there are other things that could be included. For instance, the depopulation of Mokpo is especially interesting. Likewise, some information from the Speical Cities of Korea could be moved to Cities of South Korea page. I would be happy to work with you one this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DaronDierkes (talk • contribs) 06:42, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Moving using Copy and Paste

If you need to move a page, use WP:RM instead of copy and pasting. --TheFarix (Talk) 22:51, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. I'll do so from next time.--Kzaral 23:09, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] From Korean G-7 Article

I appreciate your contribution to the article. However, I do not think that the information you have given is correct. First of all China is not a country developed high speed train independently. Please, source any statements you put, and address your proof to support your point. Until then, the information is not NPOV, and it is false. Please source! Please visit my talk page as soon you read this. Again, I appreciate your contribution to the article. --User:Kingj123 08:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Republic or People's Republic of China (I think you are meaning Mainland China)? I will add People's Republic of China as one of the HSR countries as soon as I am sure. I am positive that Chinese developed their own independent HSR, however I am not sure about the date. Also, is there a way to get into the original homepage for 中華之星列車?--User:Kingj123 18:41, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for your contributions to Monkey Park Monorail Line. I would have never been able to add that stuff.--MrFish^{Go Fish} 15:41, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Zainichi Korean language

On 18 April 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Zainichi Korean language, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

--howcheng {chat} 16:31, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

That's a pleasant surprise, although it's not really me who created the stuff; I merely translated it from the JA article. Kzaral 16:39, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

On Wikipedia, that still qualifies you to be the article creator. :) howcheng {chat} 17:17, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Good work!

I've come across a few of your articles on Japanese railway topics; good work bringing this over from ja.wikipedia. Thanks for all the work! Matthew Brown (Morven) (T:C) 10:58, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Obsolete Kana

Hi Kzaral.

I came across your newly uploaded katakana pictures and took the liberty to vectorise them. Just wanted to let you know so you don't have to search for your original PNGs one day. --chris 論 15:20, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary, which wasn't included with your recent edit to Smart card. Thank you. Rjd0060 17:22, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tangut characters

Hello Kzaral, could you teach me how to make them? I can only make chu Nom-like characters, but fail to make the Tangut ones. By the way, in , the should be ; could you fix it when you've got time? Great job. Cheers.--K.C. Tang 01:33, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it curves like ")" in toe (the left one) and "(" in finger (the right)? Thanks for your help. Cheers.--K.C. Tang 01:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

seems that the other image ("soil+water=mud") also needs revising, due to my bad hand-drawing :( on which it is based. Would you mind providing an email account in your "My Preferences"? Then I can scan the page of the book where I got the information and mail that to you, which allows you to revise the images more easily. (I can't just upload that on Commons, since that'd violate the copyright.)--K.C. Tang 03:55, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, I'll send you the images in a few days. Cheers.--K.C. Tang 01:33, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Could you email me back? I can send the images to you only after that. Cheers.--K.C. Tang 11:54, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

それは素晴らしいと思います。:)--K.C. Tang 01:36, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Electric Utilities of Japan.png

Thank you for uploading Image:Electric Utilities of Japan.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Shell ^babelfish 22:20, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tokyo in Popular culture

A good deal has been happening there--please see the talk page. Some of the material should be added back, but I am not familiar with it and cannot do it. If you can, please do it selectively--for the material with articles in wikipedia, and giving some kind of reference to a discussion of the material that shows the setting. (Japanese is of course OK, if you can give a translation).

[edit] Copy/Paste move of Musashi Gundoh

I realize this happened a year and a half ago, but on Talk:Musashi Gundoh you indicated that you performed a copy/paste move of the page to its new location. This is the incorrect way to move pages, because it separates the history (attributing everything you moved over to you, when you may or may not have been the one to contribute that information originally). The resulting move violates the GFDL. Can you tell me the title you moved it from so I can perform a history merge and correct the problem? Leebo ^T/C 21:53, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 長崎市の市旗

はじめまして、Ａｌｅｘと申します。長崎市の市旗について質問があります。KzaralさんがアプロードしていただいたImage:Flag of Nagasaki City.pngと、私が作成したImage:Alex K Nagasaki hata.svgはかなりちがいますが、どれが正しいかわかりません。市章の色はImage:Alex K Nagasaki shisho.svgに描いている通りだ思いますが、市旗の色に関しては自身がありません。Kzaralさんに教えていただきたいです。宜しく御願いします。 Alex Tora--202.249.211.185 (talk) 02:50, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Japanese flags

Thanks for what you have done so far. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 21:56, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! I guess I should learn to handle .svg, but .png images are still better than nothing, hopefully. Kzaral (talk) 11:54, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

It doesn't bother me what format the images are in at all. As long as there is a construction sheet I can look at, like with the Nara-ken no hata you did, I can easily turn it into SVG. I am trying to build a list of these sheets together at User:Zscout370/jpmon and you are welcome to edit that page to show other prefectures that I missed. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 16:05, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Question; what got you interested into flags? I like to study flags as a hobby, but been doing a lot of the Japanese flags lately because I am learning the language at my college. If you feel like talking to me off Wikipedia about it, that is fine. There are some stuff I still need to learn about it, especially the JIS-Z color standards for images. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 15:47, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

I am also a flag fan with an interest in Soviet-era flags. Don't worry too much about flags being in Pantone, we have websites now that give the official Pantone shades. I also have software that gives the Pantone colors. I am just new with Munsell colors and, using the software you suggested, I can make Japanese flags more accurate. I am still trying to get construction sheets for the flags, but with your help, we both can do something great. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 05:15, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Hmm..the program is failing for me, but I will try and install it later. The only flag I had problems getting the right color for is that of Nagano Prefecture; the JIS-Z number is listed on the flag/mon construction sheet. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 05:26, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

As for the Kagawa Prefecture, I found out the color of the symbol is JIS－Ｚ－8721 according to their website and symbol document. The flag is the same color while the symbol is white on the flag. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 08:59, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

PCCS, from what I can tell, is a modified Munsell system. I am trying to find software about it. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 21:14, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

• I also wanted to add a thanks for your work on the Mindan flag [1]. I'm new to the SVG format and couldnt get the flower right, it looks like you got it. Although I agree the font for 在日本大韓民国民団 looks a bit off but in anycase very close job. Good stuff. Cheers! Nesnad (talk) 10:18, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
  • I'll take a stab at it later. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 13:06, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting read

自衛艦旗（軍艦旗) and the colors shown in an official document. If we can find out about those for that flag and the Hinomaru, it will be neat. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 08:27, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] award

		The Original Barnstar
		For your efforts in gaining construction sheets of the flags of the Japanese prefectures, along with the required colors. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 23:02, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Wow, that's astonishing! Compared with your efforts, my contributions are quite limited. But thanks anyway. Kzaral (talk) 08:49, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

You broke the language barrier for me. While I do know Japanese, I don't know how to navigate past websites that have, as you pointed out, a login barrier. And your work with the colors is why I turned to you in the first place. I wanted to show my appreciation. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 17:57, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Significant figures

(English) Hi, Kzaral,

Your translations on Japanese railways are enormous in number and could be appreciated. But, please understand the idea of significant figures (有効数字) when you write figures. "1 km" and "1.0 km" are different. And your reply in my talk page in JAWP is highly awaited, just a regard is enough. --Maxima m (talk) 03:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Oh sorry, you have created newer tables (after August, 2007?) with considering significant figures, haven't you? I checked some histories to notice that.--Maxima m (talk) 05:12, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

(Japanese) Kzaral様、

日本の鉄道関係の多数の記事の翻訳お疲れ様です。数値を書かれるときには、有効数字の概念をご理解くださると助かります。1kmと1.0kmは別物です。日本語版会話ページでの私の答へのお返事もお待ちしております。 --Maxima m (talk) 03:16, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

おっと、失礼しました。いくつかの記事の履歴を拝見したところ、新しく作られた（2007年8月以降?）表は有効数字を踏まえて作られているように拝見しました。--Maxima m (talk) 05:12, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Late night anime

I have nominated Late night anime, an article you created, for deletion.

Thanks for uploading Image:Dekotora DVD.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.

[edit] Shinhidaka

Hi Kzaral,

I had just finished adding a geobox2 template to Shinhidaka, Hokkaidō when you replaced it with the Japanese City Infobox template. I did not realize there was one. I am glad I know about it now. I did have a question about the municipal flags, where do you get the images? Do you create them yourself? I would like to get the flags for Hidaka-chō, Erimo-cho, and Samani-cho. These are the other cities in the Hidaka Subprefecture.imars (talk) 06:10, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
