User talk:Tlotoxl

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi Tlotoxl, I happened to visit your user page after your reply on Muk-Chi-Ba and noticed you're a graduate student in Japan. This is quite interesting to me, because I am soon going to finish my undergraduate degree and I've been considering doing a master's at a Japanese university (I've lived in Japan before, and my Japanese is quite good). Could I ask you what kind of steps you took to study in Japan, what kind of financial support you got and if you have any other comments that might be useful to me? If you have the time of course. --Shibboleth 21:04, 26 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Just curious why you removed this:

Until 2002, the largest known ant colony was on the Ishikari coast of Hokkaido, Japan. The colony was estimated to comprise of 306 million worker ants and 1 million queen ants living in 45,000 interconnected nests over an area of 2.7 km2. In 2002 a super-colony of connected nests was found to stretch nearly 6000 km across Europe, and a another, measuring approximately 100 km wide, was found beneath Melbourne, Australia in 2004.

Is this information not germane to the article? Maybe it belongs under 'Humans and ants or an altogether new category? -- Tlotoxl 19:21, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I don't know why I removed it - I certainly wasn't trying to. I've replaced it. Josh

I moved Teshigahara Hiroshi back to Hiroshi Teshigahara. WhisperToMe 01:32, 8 Oct 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 2000 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] Unverified image

Thanks for uploading the image

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the image and I'll tag it for you. Thanks, Kbh3rd 01:23, 16 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Fukuoka

Hey!

I have no other purpose on commenting here but to say that it is pleasant to find another wikipedian living in Fukuoka :) May I ask around where do you live here? I am currently living in Ropponmatsu (quite close to Oohorikouen), but I am moving back to my home country in the end of this month.. it would have been interesting to meet or so. --Ningyou 16:39, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi. I noticed that you were involved in old discussions about this article, and thought you might be interested in weighing in on the current controversy. Exploding Boy 17:37, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
