[edit] Welcome

Hello, Zonk43, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

[edit] German churches series

Hi Zonk43, I notices your article series about German churches. Certainly a nice idea, but I'm sure you are aware this is pretty awful English. Machine translation? - Anyway, I've started putting up some warning notices, for others to come in and help out with the English. Also, one more thing you should do: provide sources! At least a link to the German texts you translated these from, so that helpers can go back to check with the original. I do hope these texts weren't translated from a copyrighted source? Lukas 20:38, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm not planning to do anything about these articles, but if I would, I would prefer to translate directly from German than to have to clean up these machine translations. Anyone doing it will need to know German anyway to see through the absurdities which result from automatic translations. u p p l a n d 22:30, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Zonk43, I've added some cleanup tags to the articles you've started, mostly Template:Wikify and Template:RoughTranslation. I really urge you to browse Wikipedia:Manual of Style and Wikipedia:Translation into English. In particular, as the latter page states,

  • Machine translation is much much worse [than even amateur translation by hand]. Never use machine translation to create an article! (This doesn't mean you can't use machine translation as a tool, but it does mean that machine-translated material dumped into the English-language Wikipedia is worse than nothing.)

Happy editing, Melchoir 08:09, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Aspects"

hi -- could you provide a reference to where you're getting your data from? Either as a reference at the bottom of the page, or maybe even on the Talk page for the article... as a former astronomer I appreciate the additions! thanks a lot. bikeable (talk) 19:10, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

I calculated them by my ephemeris program. For the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptun and Pluto they are n separate articles.

[edit] Towers

I assume you are the user who created three articles about towers on it.wiki the last night. Please do not use automatic translation tools because the result is...ahem...not understandable. Many thanks :-) it:utente:Civvi

[edit] Theodor-Heuss-Rhine River Bridge

Please stop adding machine-translated articles to Wikipedia. If you think an article should be translated, say so at e.g. Wikipedia:German-English translation requests. Since it is easier to translate from scratch than to cleanup a machine "translation", I will nominate pages like this for deletion. Kusma (討論) 21:03, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi at last

I was amused at the welcome message above - surely you have been contributing since 2005 March or earlier? Your handwriting seems to be the same as the person who brought us Pillar of third section of Gletscherbahn Kaprun (I spotted that one because I have been to Kaprun) and countless other anonymous tower articles. If so:

  • welcome indeed - at last you have a User Id so we can talk to you
  • I hate to be critical, but considering how long you have been contributing, you still seem to making some basic mistakes - do you ever check to see what others do to your articles after you have left them? You have a watchlist now!

But let me be specific and constructive - look at my edits to Nebraska Educational Telecommunication Tower Carroll and note the following:

  • we give a title of "Orfordness Transmitter" not "Transmitter Orfordness" (which is German usage) - actually you are now getting that one right
  • we embolden the title (once) when we repeat it in the article
  • we do not keep repeating the full title - "it" or "the tower" can be used in later sentences
  • we create a wikilink to the article about the location
  • we create the lat/long as a link (using a template) and include region:US. Look at some of your articles about British towers such as Orfordness Transmitter - here will you see I have used {{gbmapping}} with a grid ref - which you can usually get from Mike Brown's pages.
  • we put "See also" before ...
  • we say "External links" (always plural and always lower case on links) - again, "weblinks" is German not English!
  • we do not use naked URL's in external links but "pipe" them
  • we put the article in a category.

Sorry to throw it all at you in one go but I have been waiting nine months to say this! Above all we do welcome your contributions in whatever state they come - after all, all the things I have listed above can be put in by other editors who come after you.

Incidentally, I was amused to see an article about Woofferton transmitting station pop up, created by someone else - that's a British one you missed! And why not create your user page to tell us about yourself - you are German? Where do you live? How old (very roughly)?

Well done. Keep up the good work and don't mind me! -- RHaworth 23:03, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] formatting

Thank you for your new articles. However, it would be better if you formatted them properly, instead of just adding the raw text. See Wikipedia:Guide to layout. Thanks. --W.marsh 20:35, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Machine translations

Please do not submit machine translations, especially not if they contain complete nonsense like the translation of "Mittenwald" as "center forest" or "resin" for the Harz mountains - I have suggested the deletion of the really bad ones. If you would like Wikipedia to have good articles about these topics, please submit a translation request at WP:TIE. Translating from scratch is easier than machine translation, and as it says on WP:TIE, machine translation is worse than nothing. Thank you, Kusma (討論) 20:52, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Lübeck Cathedral, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

--Gurubrahma 04:13, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Translations

Please stop adding machine-translated articles to Wikipedia. If you think an article should be translated, say so at e.g. Wikipedia:German-English translation requests. Since it is easier to translate from scratch than to cleanup a machine "translation", I will nominate pages like Ruetli-School for deletion. Cheers, --unforgettableid | talk to me 11:10, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Czech Articles

Just so you know, Czech in English refers to the language. The Country is referred to as the Czech Republic. I have updated your recent series of articles to reflect this. --Spartaz 17:49, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Rhoenraddenkmal.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Rhoenraddenkmal.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:08, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wil tower

I suspect that this miight be a machine translation. I regret to say that it makes no sense, and I have marked it for speedy deletion.--Anthony.bradbury 22:42, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disappearing rocket

I've updated the Disappearing rocket article which you created but I'm not sure that this is actually a term anyone uses. Is this just your translation of the german name or do you know for a fact that this term is used in rocketry? Pascal.Tesson 23:30, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Remarkable chimneys

Could you tell me why you've re-added the long list of remarkable chimneys to the Chimney article? There is a discussion about this on the article's talk page. Please join the discussion there rather than reverting back the list without comment or discussion. Thanks, Gwernol 14:11, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of medium wave transmitters in Germany / List of European medium wave transmitters

Please do not use cut-and-paste in order to carry out a move. Read Help:Moving a page for more details. Thank you. Owen× ☎ 22:19, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of Towers

Please stop adding all kinds of references to tall structures to the list of towers article. It is way too long and unfocussed already. The cleanup tag on top is there for a reason; it means the article should be focused before adding new content. Thanks Arnoutf 17:54, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding edits made during October 11, 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do.

Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 1 under Articles. Please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such material.

[edit] Empty articles

Guy, creating a couple of dozen essentially content-free stubs using only a few numbers lifted from skyscraperpage.com plugged into a template isn't sufficient. This isn't a race, and quality is valued over quantity here. --Calton | Talk 00:07, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

And yet, I fail to see how deleting stubs, with enough content to be expanded, improves anything. -- SCZenz 01:14, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Liberman Broadcasting Tower Devers

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Lahti1.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lahti1.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 11:17, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Longwave amateur radio link

On the Longwave article you set the amateur radio link to point at LOFAR but I am not sure that this is the correct thing. LOFAR is the LOw Frequency ARray for radio astronomy in Europe not an amateur radio system in the USA as the link text imples. I did a quick Google to see if there is anything else called LOFAR but didn't find anything. Can you have another look at it and make sure that the link is correct? Thanks. --DanielRigal 22:18, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repost warning

A tag has been placed on Dalian Radio and TV Tower, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of either already posted material, or of material that was previously deleted under Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. If you can indicate how Dalian Radio and TV Tower is different from all other articles, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}}, and also put a note on Talk:Dalian Radio and TV Tower saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions. Amarkov blahedits 00:49, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] TV-Mast Jyväskylä

TV-Mast Jyväskylä has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt the subject might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability for the relevant concerns. An example of notability guidelines can be found at Wikipedia:Notability (websites). If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion for consensus.

[edit] Raiffeisen Observation Tower

Hi, interesting, but you must source and improve the article if you want it to survive the WP:AFD! frummer 08:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tower

Thanks for your translation of Raiffeisen Observation Tower. However, removing the AfD tag was inappropriate, such actions can be construed as vandalism or attempts to avoid process. The substance of the German article is addressed in the nomination for deletion, hence the new revision of the page is still up for consideration. Thanks, Deizio talk 16:06, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I would also once again bring your attention to the fact that masts and other tall structures without significant features or status are often nominated for deletion. Your judgement in which articles of this type to create and maintain could perhaps be better focussed on demonstrably significant structures. Deizio talk 16:28, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of power stations

List of power stations has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this list might not be appropriate for Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:List guideline for relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the prod notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion.

[edit] speedy delete notification

[edit] Speedy deletion of Campobasso Transmitter

A tag has been placed on Campobasso Transmitter, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

non-notable

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Pigmantalk • contribs 21:14, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Berlevåg LORAN-C transmitter

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Berlevåg LORAN-C transmitter, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

[edit] Prophetic Frenchman speedy delete nomination

A tag has been placed on Prophetic Frenchman, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -- Scienter 17:44, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Sender_nordkirchen1.JPG listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Sender_nordkirchen1.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion.

[edit] Image:SenderWesel.jpg

Reading your talk page I recognized you're having problems with licenses more or less often. So I corrected the licensing of the picture mentioned above myself, so it at last includes the authors (=my) name and a link to the original upload site - instead of just the picture itself, which can't be used to validate anything. You're welcome to use this picture (and eventually even more of mine) when you also use correct licensing. 172.173.235.186 22:24, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GQV

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article GQV, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] AfD nomination of Lauterach Transmitter

An editor has nominated Lauterach Transmitter, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lauterach Transmitter and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

[edit] Herzogstand Aerial Tramway

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Herzogstand Aerial Tramway, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Herzogstand Aerial Tramway.
