[edit] Victoria Paris DOB

Luke Ford says 1965, as does the Adult Film Database, those were my sources (2:1). But I'm not set on it; her personal site doesn't say either way. If you want, we can put a sentence about the discrepancy in the article. AnonEMouse 23:56, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Okay, let's do this. You do it here, I'll put a note in the German article. Regards --Rosenzweig 18:39,

[edit] Commons

Hi, I just wanted to say you are absolutely right about the images, I just didnt know what tag to use. I'm sort of new to that. I didnt know I was doing anything wrong, but I know now, thanks to you. But, while you told me what not to do, you didnt really tell me what tags to use and how to upload it from commons. Do I need to become a user of commons to upload? Also, I thought I uploaded from the English Wikipedia... I've obviously made some mistakes, but how, exactly, do I fix them? Thanks for putting me in line, ÅñôñÿMôús Dîššíd3nt 20:06, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Weinsburg

A tag has been placed on Weinsburg, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

Oh well. It is a common misspelling, so I wanted to provide a service. A redirect would indicate the spelling is correct, so I chose this instead. If this is not desirable here, I guess the readers of the English wikipedia will have to go uninformed. --Rosenzweig (talk) 00:47, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Winemaking cooperative

Hello, I saw that you removed a statement on the first German winemaking cooperative being in Ahr in 1869. In your edit summary you mentioned one in Neckarsulm in 1855. If you have a source for that, it would be very good if you could add it to the article! I took the statement about 1869 from the latest edition of Oxford Companion to Wine, which is generally considered an authorative source on everything related to wine. But perhaps the history of winemaking cooperatives is under-researched in relation to "sexier" aspects of the history of wine, in which case it would be good to have more accurate info in Wikipedia than in OCW. Regards, Tomas e (talk) 10:52, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

The cooperative in question is the de:Weingärtnergenossenschaft Neckarsulm-Gundelsheim, which existed until 2007, when it merged with another cooperative in nearby Heilbronn (the de:Genossenschaftskellerei Heilbronn-Erlenbach-Weinsberg, to be precise). You can read German, I see, so I don't have to translate the articles for you. A source would be the book about the history of Neckarsulm: Neckarsulm. Die Geschichte einer Stadt, Hrsg. Stadt Neckarsulm, Konrad Theiss Verlag, Stuttgart 1992, ISBN 3-8062-0883-2. The book has a chapter about wine in Neckarsulm, written by Wolfgang Angerbauer (then-archivist of the Landkreis / district Heilbronn): Weinbau in Neckarsulm im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert on pp. 225 to 240. The founding of the Weingärtnergesellschaft in 1855 is mentioned on p. 228. An even better source might be the book by Otto Baer: Werden, Wachsen und Wirken der württembergischen Weingärtnergenossenschaften, Wiesbaden 1979 — but I don't have that book, so I can only speculate. Please note that apparently there were other cooperatives before the one in Neckarsulm, but they ceased to exist at some time, making the one in Neckarsulm the oldest one still in existence in Württemberg, until 2007. Now, the oldest still existing cooperative in Württemberg (and perhaps Germany) are the de:Fellbacher Weingärtner, I think, founded in 1858. You might also be interested in a historical overview of German winemaking cooperatives, online here. Regards --Rosenzweig (talk) 15:05, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
