[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] Current events

Hi hello, would you be interested to contribute to Current events in Hong Kong and Macao? best, — Instantnood 08:19, Jan 31 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hangul vs. Hangeul

Hi Tomchiukc, is Hangeul really the correct Revised Romanisation spelling? If so, should we be switching other articles over as well? I see a trend towards Revised Romanisation on en: but I don't think we have a policy yet (maybe there should be one). silsor 15:48, Feb 4, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Motorola Dragonball

Hello Tom. In the Chinese version of Motorola Dragonball you wrote that the processor was designed by an intern. Is there any cite to support this? I've translated this sentence to the English version [1], but it was reverted by another user [2]. Thanks. — Instantnood 18:37, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Do you have the name of the programme, and, roughly, when it was on TV? RTHK keeps their programmes in the archive on its website. It's gonna be useful when people ask for citations. — Instantnood 06:50, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Ah I thought it was on TV in the previous couple of years. Thanks anyways. :-) So bad that we cannot include more information in its English version.. :-\ — Instantnood 07:18, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
The only solution is perhaps contacting her through E-Mail. [3] — Instantnood 07:32, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Wikipedians in New Zealand

Hi, You might want to consider adding {{User NZ res}} to the top of your user page, which will add you to this category automatically and also add a nice graphic. Onco_p53 07:36, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Proposal on Notability

Because you're a member of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians, I'm notifying you that the inclusionist proposa Wikipedia:Non-notabilityl is in progress to define the role of notability in articles. Please help us make this successful! Also note the proposal Wikipedia:Importance is a deletionist proposla that seeks to officially introduce notabiltiy for the first time. --Ephilei 04:45, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bio-industrial park

I removed the {{inuse}} tag from this article (stub?) and de-commented the hidden text, as you tagged it 10 days ago and it hasn't been touched since. If this was in error, please re-place the tag of otherwise edit/improve the article. Thanks. -- nae'blis 20:42, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moving pages

I've noticed that you've attempted to move several pages, most recent being Manga, only to move them right back to their original names. Please don't do this as it is disruptive and a burden to the servers. Pages should only be moved to correct errors or to change the article's name to more commonly known terms. --TheFarix (Talk) 14:50, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Efi-simple-zh.png





Dear Msikma: I translated your chart about EFI (Image:Efi-simple.jpg) into Chinese and uploaded to Wiki Commons. After that, I found that you requested all changes to your chart need to have you be notified. I am not sure if you are happy with this translation or not, because I did not just before on a Win2K machine. Please let me know if you need my help to make a better looking images. I am happy to provide you the translation of all text required. -- Tomchiukc 10:03, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Hello Tom. Thank you for translating that image, that's very cool! It's actually so that I added a little message on the talk page of every image I created a long time ago, because I wanted to be able to track them easily. But I stopped doing that since then, because there's not really any need to. I think that the image you made is very nice. I personally was thinking of redoing the original image in SVG sometime, because it's a much better image format for printing purposes. If I do, maybe you would want to be kept updated, so that your translation can be updated as well? Thanks, —msikma (user, talk) 06:31, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Dear Msikma, sure I will help. Please let me know about what I can do to help you. -- Tomchiukc 16:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I've created a new version of the image in SVG: Image:Efi-simple.svg. It should be easy to update since you can just open up the image's source code and change the text. If you give me the text that you used in your version of the image, I will do it for you. I'll just make SVG files from now on because they are much easier to translate and are much better for printing purposes. I hope you like it! —msikma (user, talk) 17:41, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
For some unknown reason, I cannot open the file. So I give you the names of the chart in 3 languages, you can put the language code at the end of each file. Possibly, you can add your picture to the Japanese version of article as well:
zh-tw: 作業系統 / 可擴展韌體介面 / 系統韌體 / 系統硬體
zh-cn: 操作系统 / 可扩展固件接口 / 系统固件 / 系统硬件
ja: OS / EFI / ファームウェア / ハードウェア
--Tomchiukc 14:59, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank you very much for the translations, I've created new versions of the image. They're located at Image:Efi-simple_ja.svg, Image:Efi-simple_zh-tw.svg, and Image:Efi-simple_zh-cn.svg. —msikma (user, talk) 15:27, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
Thx a lot! :-D --Tomchiukc 15:37, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
You're welcome. If you have any other translation requests, feel free to let me know. It's strange that you couldn't open the image, however. It's just a text file with a certain formatting, and editing it should be as simple as downloading the file and changing the text. —msikma (user, talk) 15:40, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Little context in AGLOCO

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on AGLOCO, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because AGLOCO is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting AGLOCO, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate AGLOCO itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 14:59, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wavelength.svg

Can you help me to modify Wavelength.svg to Chinese version and upload it to wiki commons as Wavelength-zh.svg? I tried to do the edit, but the file resulted is not visible. I am not sure about the problem, but this is not the first time for such problem to appear. :-( -- Tomchiukc 04:53, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tomchiukc. I have updated the image Image:Wavelength-zh.svg. I don't know if you are technical, but what I did is that I converted the file from the Big5 character set to UTF-8. The image shows now but I do not know if the labels make sense. Maybe I just made it show some random characters :P. I also added the license (GFDL). When I made the original SVG image I copied the main layout from another image. This image was licensed under the GFDL. This forces me to also license my version under it. And it also forces you to use it. Thanks for understanding :D. --Ysangkok 19:16, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
It works now! I have not thought about that it was the problem. Thanks a lot! :-D --Tomchiukc 19:19, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Speedy deletion of Katwalk

A tag has been placed on Katwalk requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company or corporation, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for companies and corporations.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Disambiguation pages only have links to the articles. We don't link other terms and phrases except in rare cases. Also the actual link, always disambiguated, should be the first part of each entry whenever possible. Vegaswikian (talk) 07:24, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
