For the La Argentina page, if she's better known by her real name than stage name, you should put it under her real name. There's a button on the left hand side of every page that says "Move this page" which will do it for you. --zandperl 18:57, 12 Feb 2004 (UTC)


Thought about that: I've found very few references to her real name, which is why I used her (more commonly known) stage name. But, see the Summary in the history for her entry. Maybe provide a redirect??? serak 19:40, 12 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Great work on the sound samples at flamenco! You may be interested in Wikipedia:Sound and Wikipedia, if you aren't already aware of it. Tuf-Kat 20:06, Feb 19, 2004 (UTC)


Thanx! I actually may end up breaking out a mic and trying to record some samples myself. The basic stuff is pretty simple. It's hard to find good PD flamenco samples of long-enough duration without fair use problems :-( I'll have a gander at the Wikipedia:Sound and Wikipedia thingamajiggeroo. serak 14:40, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Well spotted! The F/A-18 Hornet pic was put on by me. Because I'd been putting on a lot of USAF pics I automatically typed USAF into the caption.

Looks like we're both editing the YF-17 Cobra page at the same time. Lost the tech table I put in :-) Amazing how fast someome comes to edit a brand new article :) serak 20:08, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I edit-conflicted you? sorry! :) I really didn't know the existence of YF-17, although I have some knowledge on military aircraft, so please add the tech table again! :) Optim 20:11, 29 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Serak, I've found the same problem, I couldn't upload a changed pic using the old pic name. I think it's a bug. You'll just have to use a new name! Best Wishes, Adrian.

Thanks for the message.
You can do conversions very easily with google. Simply type what every you want to convert such as:
15000 horsepower
2000 pounds force
25 ft 12 in
10000 acres in sq km
352 mph in km/h
into the google search field. See the 'More about calculator' link that appears. Regards.

re- Tangos Flamencos
You check with your expert, and I'll check with my former teacher, Ronald Radford...Deal?
Deal.
Did a quick web check found: http://users.aol.com/BuleriaChk/private/compas/compasa3.html#Tangos
Good jumpin-off point for an article. Will put together a stub this evening. --Davout 13:46, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)


[edit] 'Fair Use' common phrase at the time

Sorry it took so long, to see your tag/edit for Image:Example.png. There was no real rationale given simply because at the time of upload, most other clips just said "Fair Use" and that was it. I just followed the crowd, so-to-speak. The situation has been remedied (I hope!) :-) serak 08:35, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

OK, Thanks for adding the rationale, Also don't worry about having EXACTLY 30 secs, provided it's a short sample from an entire wotk there should not be an issue. If you have timecode information (i.e start and end times) for the sample used, it is suggested you list these as well. ShakespeareFan00 09:39, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
