Hello and Welcome! I hope you like the place. --mav

No problem synthetik- it happend between me going to bed and getting up again so I wouldn't even have realised if you hadn't told me!

Sythetik,

Thanks for the complement on tempura page. I've enjoyed bouncing japanese food pages back and forth between us.

Feel free to edit tempura page with abandon. I did my best, but it really was only a first pass (for me, anyway), after all.

Yours, Arthur 21:01 Feb 8, 2003 (UTC)

Hello. I have stumbled upon this web site, which may be of your interest, though it is proprietary. Tomos 06:43 Mar 18, 2003 (UTC)

Tomos, thanks for the link I will use it to cross check my resources. --synthetik 03:51 Mar 19, 2003 (UTC)

Regarding list of cities and counties, Synthetik, if you think the format in Chiba is good, I would like to add such a list to the rest of prefectures in Japan. What do you say? -- Taku 05:50 Mar 22, 2003 (UTC)

We should have a look at the stuff done on other WikiProjects like Wikipedia:WikiProject Chinese provinces and define a format first. I'm still collecting information about the various prefectures and a lot of the pages have not been created yet. So if you agree we can start something like Wikipedia: WikiProject Japanese prefectures with clear outlines. --synthetik 06:01 Mar 22, 2003 (UTC)

Nice picture of Kobe Port Tower: the page is now infinitely more interesting. No luck with a photo for Osaka on your recent visit? --David Stewart

Thanks, I have some more pictures from Kobe but the wheater was not that great on my photo-shoot day and I have to check if one of 'em passes the quality test.
I did not have too much time in Osaka and could only take the sun statue at the expo park in Senri-Chuo. I'll upload it once I get around to it.
cheers, --synthetik

About wikiproject japanese prefecture. Do you have any decent reason to translate gun as district instead of county? According to recent additions on them, it seems a county is better wording. What do you think? About phots in Kansai. Yeah, it would be nice that if you got pictures. Good luck! -- Taku 01:05 May 6, 2003 (UTC)

Taku, most of the english versions of the prefectural pages I looked at when coming up with the convention mentioned districts as the sub division between prefectures and municipalities. Hence I choose to use it. District and county are both ambigous terms in the sense that they can mean the same or something totally different depending on the country or the context they are used in. The example stated in the county article does not take into account context sensitivity when it states that district collides with 丁目.
Take for example:
"The city of Kyoto has XX districts."
"Kyoto prefecture is divided into 12 districts."
I think used properly there is no reason to convert every district to county since it should be perfectly clear within the context to what the district releates. Also I don't want to state edict as the almighty source for Japanese translations, but searching for 丁目 returns:
Matches in edict:
丁目 （ちょうめ） (n) district of a town; city block (of irregular size); (P);
cheers, --synthetik 10:24 May 6, 2003 (UTC)

Thanks a lot. I agree with you. I will put this to somehow for further reference. -- Taku 23:08 May 8, 2003 (UTC)

There's a highlighted map for Kyushu but not for Honshu, Shikoku, or Hokkaido, i went to the website you listed, but I cant follow it (being in japanese). Also, i've tried to find a usable picture for Tempura but no luck so far. Its always good to provide the biggest picture possible, and then make a smaller version, rather than simply providing 1 in between (i mainly mean this for .jpgs not pngs).

-- user_talk:hfastedge

The resources I listed in the map are only a reference from where I got the outline for the Japanese prefectures. From there I did a some editing and added the colors. I also uploaded the original gimp file under Wikipedia:WikiProject_Japanese_prefectures/Images just in case someone wants to do their own version or wants to improve the images.
I'm not quite sure about the tempura pic I can try finding one on the net but usually I only use pics I have shot myself just to make sure the copyright is ok (I know I'm overly paranoid).
Can you clarify about the picture size ref. you made. Are you refering to images I uploaded or are you asking about how to do proper image processing? cheers, --synthetik 13:56 28 May 2003 (UTC)

Awesome. I thought it odd that the article didn't exist yet, but we've got some gaps in our coverage still so I didn't think much more of it. Koyaanis Qatsi 10:25 11 Jun 2003 (UTC)

No biggie, I read about the subject a couple of days back and remembered :). --synthetik 10:41 11 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Synth: Maybe it's just because I'm a 'merkin, but I've never heard of anyone leaving "station" uncapitalized in the name of a train station. (I think that even the limeys would say "Victoria Station" and not "Victoria station.") I'm just wondering why you constantly de-capitalize station names and cite "caps abuse," because I wouldn't consider that to be caps abuse. Sekicho 06:10, Dec 19, 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Swiss cuisine

Hi there, I've started a stub on Swiss_cuisine. I've seen that you are interested in this area, so maybe you'll enjoy correcting and expanding... Kokiri 09:27, 23 Jul 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Japanese National Diet Building

Hi Synthetik, I've done some Photoshop work on your photograph of the Kokkai Gijido. Rotation, levels, highlight/shadow contrast control, sharpening filter, upsampling. With your permission, I'd like to post it. Fg2 05:54, Sep 26, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Image licensing.

I'm assuming that 'copyright-free' means public-domain. I've been working on untagged images, and have been tagging a few of yours, including the following. If you don't want me to tag them like this, or want to use a tag other than 'PD-user|Synthetik', let me know and I'll get right on changing it.

[edit] Akashi-Kaikyo bridge photo

Hey, on Image:Akashi-kaikyo_bridge_night_shot_small.jpg you are listed as the photographer. The public domain tag needs updating, I assume it should be {{PD-self}} but I figured I'd check with you before I change it. If no objections after a couple weeks or so I'll change it myself. On a related note, a higher resolution version would be fantastic if you have one. —Henrym 13:08, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:PrefSymbol-Okinawa.png)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:PrefSymbol-Okinawa.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --Durin 19:32, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:PrefSymbol-Aichi.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:PrefSymbol-Aichi.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 07:31, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:PrefSymbol-Chiba.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:PrefSymbol-Chiba.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:20, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
