[edit] License tagging for Image:Wolf leslau.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Wolf leslau.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

• Wikipedia:Image use policy
• Wikipedia:Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:09, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Toom instrument.JPG

Thank you for uploading Image:Toom instrument.JPG. 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI 00:51, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A belated thanks

Hi -- I just noticed your contributions to Onesimos Nesib and your creation of Aster Ganno, an article on an unjustly neglected person. For one, I'd like to extend my appreciation for your contributions, & hope that you can fill in some of the holes on Ethiopian topics. -- llywrch 06:06, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Eugene Kellersberger

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Eugene Kellersberger, and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: Kellersberger. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 13:50, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Majang Vowels

Hi Pete! Good to see you at work in Wikipedia! I noticed your activity on the Majang vowel system. In principle, I agree with you that Majang probably has a 9-vowel system, and I am working currently on that, measuring formants, using the data of the two German students we had last year. Unfortunately, I think that there is no publication yet that states that Majang has a 9-vowel system. When I did the article, I set the link to Bender as a reference, and he only shows his 7 vowels. So either we have to remove the reference, and then the information would be original research, or we would have to go back to the old wording, which was still original research, but probably a little bit more subdued. I hope that I will be able to publish something like a phonology of Majang in the course of the next few years, and then I think the article could refer to that. But before that I guess we are stuck with Bender's publications on the matter, and we need to refer to them. Landroving Linguist (talk) 13:14, 27 March 2008 (UTC) (Andreas Joswig)

Wow, that was a quick solution to the problem. I sent my message off to you, then checked the mail (I mean the real mail), and there was a parcel from Harrassowitz with the third volume of the Encyclopeadia Aethiopica, and that has your article on Majangir language in there, and here you write that there are nine vowels. So there is a published source as of today, and I will correct the link accordingly (tomorrow, I will go home now). Anyway, you can basically ignore what I have written in my above message.
