I believe this is the place to correspond; I think the idea is that everything is transparent at wikipedia. If you like, you can also email me at dan@midnightspecial.net

[edit] Culture portal selected article archive

I've moved it to Portal:Culture:selected article archive, so it won't be in article space. User:Zoe|^(talk) 04:10, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia:Wikiproject Paranormal

Saw you in the roll call. Howdy! nice to have you on board. I'm one of the more active members of late and I'm working on the Cryptozoology stubs. Do you have any specific areas of interest you'd like help with or to see worked on? let me know on my talk page. Lisapollison 12:03, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I am sending this out to wikiart folks everywhere,

so please don't feel picked on. Here's my thing. I've been watching list of sculptors recently and have been weeding out the entries in red on the theory that this is an index of sculptors in wikipedia. However i have been reluctant to remove artists that I know or discover to be real, wikipedia worthy people, so am trying to decide if i should just do a stub - maybe a lot of stubs - of these folks or leave them on the list [I HATE lists with too much red - check out the List of Frank Lloyd Wright works for example.

For example, i checked out one, François-Joseph Duret (1804 - 1865) and discovered that there are at least two sculptors with that name, (1732 - 1816) and (1804 - 1865)- this one is the son - and both probably could comfortably be in wikipedia. I did have a rather bad moment recently when someone DELETED my article on Connor Barrett about an hour [maybe less] after I first posted it, on the theory that he was not wikiworthy [or something] and a lot of these fairly remote (in time and place from me) artists are a lot more obscure than Barrett. So, i would like to know that i have the support of the wikipedia art history community before doing this. Drop me a line, if you wish to sit down and be counted. Life is good, Carptrash 05:09, 4 November 2006 (UTC) P.S. although i do mostly American art i have contributed to lots on non-American articles including Aleijadinho, Ásmundur Sveinsson, Einar Jonsson, Gunnfrídur Jónsdóttir, Henry Moore, Ivan Meštrović, Ørnulf Bast, Rayner Hoff, and probably some others. I say this because most of the stubs I'm proposing would be Europeans.

[edit] Need maintenace for Portal:Anarchism

Hi, there is need of maintenance work on the portal which was created by you. There is negligible updation on the portal in last three-four months. So please try to do some maintenance work else I am afraid of being deletion. Regards, Shyam ^(T/C) 21:33, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Marc. I added {{subst:clear}} because on my screen the text was already not wrapping around the picture, but was aligning very strangely in a column underneath the picture. If the issue now is that the image is too small and there is empty space next to it, a solution might be to hardcode a larger image size. I have tried this now; take a look at Portal:Anarchism and tell me if it looks any better. — coelacan talk — 03:55, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

See Image:Portalanarchism.png, a screenshot of what happens without the "clear". There's that weird column of text that acts like it's next to the image but it's not. I tried reducing the size of the image to 175px just now and I get the column next to the image but it doesn't wrap under the image. I'm going to look around and see if I can find something similar that's working, to copy. — coelacan talk — 11:41, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
