[edit] To do list

I probably need to change the name on my article on the discretized form of Poisson's Equation to have a possessive for Poisson. Slffea 22:02, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice job

The modal analysis from FEA page. Thanks Greglocock 08:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I've been contemplating writing about this topic for many years. The existence of Wikipedia and the ability to put equations into html have created the exact circumstances to finally do it. It's good to see someone else want this subject covered. Slffea 09:46, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Burt Rutan canard link change

Hey, thanks for doing that! Since the change from canard to Canard (aeronautics), there are well over 100 links that need to be changed. I've been trying work on it a bit at a time, but there's still a ton. If you want to do additional ones, go to canard and click on the "what links here" link on the left side, and have at it!!

Thanks for the note, I'm vaguely familiar with AWB, but the real problem is that not all the links should be changed. Canard became a semi disambig page, and a few of them, scattered through the rest, need to stay the way they are, directed to the original article. Unfortunately, that means the need for an old-fashioned Mark I human to decide whether it's an aviation article and needs to be changed, or another one that needs to stay the same.

I don't know AWB, but maybe you can make a list of the specific articles which need to be changed, and have AWB only operate on those. It seems pretty clear which are aeronautics articles, so you could highlight and make them into a list. Also, it looks like most of the articles linked to canard are aeronautics related so maybe you could change every article there and then go back and revert by hand the few that shouldn't be changed.

[edit] Image:HarrietWheeler.jpg

I'm assuming you didn't draw this from real life, so could you please provide a link to the photograph that you based it upon? Thanks, Postdlf 20:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

The painting was based on several screen caps from the Sundays video "Summertime" rather than on a photograph. The screen caps I took aren't online, but here's a site which gives you an idea of what I worked from as well as the particular image that had the most influence(3rd row, 3rd column).
Siren's of Song
I think my painting counts as an original work which I own the copyright to and am allowed to release under the terms that I choose.Slffea 22:59, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

I moved the rest of the debate to Wikipedia_talk:Fair_use#Painting_based_on_music_video_screenshots, which was suggested by Postdlf. It's getting long and I wanted to clean up a bit. Slffea 00:35, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
