I have noticed on a few articles that you have created that the interwiki links [[fr:french equivalent]] have been placed before the category.

The Christianity WikiProject Newsletter
Issue X - July 2009
Project news
  • The Christianity project and its related projects currently have 76 FAs, 8 FLs, and 148 GAs. We gained new recognized content in each field, with 4 FAs promoted, 2 FLs, and 3 GAs. Congratulations and a big thank you to all those who worked on these articles!
Member news
Other news
  • I am still working on the categorization matter. With any luck, we should have some results by the end of the month. There are also some discussions regarding project related activities at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/General Forum. One issue in particular that might be addressed is possible elections of new coordinators. Anyone interested in serving in such a capacity is more than welcome to indicate as much.
Related projects news
Member contest of the month
  • The previous contests are still ongoing, because of the extreme amount of time the categorization is taking me. Anyone who can bring any of the few Stub class articles among the project's 1000 most often accessed articles by the end of July will get an award. Please see the details Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Christianity#Project challenge of the month.
Christianity related news
From the Members

Welcome to the Tenth issue of the WikiProject Christianity newsletter! Use this newsletter as a mechanism to inform yourselves about progress at the project and please be inspired to take more active roles in what we do.

It has been a long time since the last coordinators election. There is a lot for people to do, and I certainly would welcome seeing any individuals with an interest in such a position put themselves forward as candidates. I in particular would very much like to see some degree of "specialization" in the coordinators, so that, for instance, we might have someone knowledgable about some of the specific Christian faith traditions or other main subjects, like Orthodoxy, Lutheranism, Mormonism, the Jehovah's Witnesses, art, theology, and so on. If any parties who have experience with some of our faith- or- subject-based content would be interested in being candidates, I would love to see them do so. Please feel free to take part in the discussion regading what the minimum number of category items is, and how to deal with the non-qualifying categories, on the General Forum page.

I have been meaning to contact you[edit]

You began the project City of Rome. The project is not completly defunct. I am not clear if you are still running the project or if there actualy is a particular editor that runs projects or if they simply take on a life of their own.

If you have lost interest in the project I wanted to take over and perhaps begin to learn how to expand and build other projects.

If you are still intending to run the project please let me know if my work and changes to templates (Roman Monuments} are OK.--Amadscientist (talk) 00:57, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:GWhitehead.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:GWhitehead.jpg. 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. BJBot (talk) 06:11, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cranbrook Schools[edit]

Unspecified source for File:RomansLanding.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:RomansLanding.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 04:44, 5 August 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?--Jappalang (talk) 04:44, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please translate[edit]

Please translate this text from your article: I francesi la mattina del 22 aprile portarono alcuni cannoni presso porta San Zeno con l'intenzione di abbatterla, e furono fermati grazie a dei fortunati colpi di cannone sparati dalle mura da alcuni cittadini, che li obbligarono nuovamente, così, a ritirarsi. Intanto i francesi all'interno di Castel Vecchio erano in grave difficoltà, tanto che alcuni soldati fuggirono dal ponte scaligero. Ci fu anche un tentativo mal riuscito di riconquistare il colle San Leonardo. La polvere da sparo e le munizioni stavano però scarseggiando, ma anche il cibo cominciava a non essere più sufficiente per la popolazione, dato che la città si era riempita di volontari e soldati. Il Senato inviò addirittura una lettera in cui invitava la città alla resa, per cui le maggiori authorità a Verona si riunirono per decidersi sul da farsi. Durante la riunione si arrivò alla conclusione che ormai non sarebbero giunti rinforzi, per cui bisognava cominciare a prepararsi per la resa: i capi militari andarono per le strade invitando a fermare i combattimenti: molti ufficiali Veneti uscirono e così influenzati dalle Venete Cariche, scorsero le contrade tutte di Verona proclamando una tregua conclusa, ed esortando tutti gli abitanti a desistere da qualunque atto di ostilità, poiché trattavasi di pace, né tardarono i migliori tra i cittadini ad unirsi a loro onde calmare il popolo, infruttuosi non furono i loro consigli e la moltitudine si lasciò persuadere dalle voci della ragione e delle necessità: paga di non abbandonare i suoi posti di difesa, vi si tenne tranquilla, e non tirò più un colpo di cannone o di fucile. Così ebbe fine una battaglia, la quale principata entro le nostre mura alle ore ventuna italiane[29] del giorno 17 aprile era durata senza interruzione sino presso alle ore parimenti ventuna[29] del giorno 23. Allo strepito delle armi, al clamore delle voci, al movimento continuo di una numerosa popolazione, successero un cupo silenzio, un nesto riposo, una ferale immobilità.[30]

Il valore mostrato dai veronesi, che riuscirono a contrastare le incursioni di pattuglie francesi e a sopportare il cannoneggiamento della città, non avrebbe potuto resistere però all'assedio di 15.000 soldati,[31] per cui il 23 aprile era ormai presa la decisione della resa, si inviò quindi un messaggio a Balland in cui si richiedeva un armistizio di 24 ore. Il comandante concesse allora una tregua sino al mezzogiorno del giorno seguente.

Alla fine le morti francesi ammontarono a 500 soldati,[32] i feriti furono circa un migliaio, e i prigionieri 2.400 (di cui 500 soldati e 1.900 loro famigliari).[33] Dunque dei 3.000 soldati francesi di guarnigione[34] circa mille (tra morti e prigionieri) furono messi fuori combattimento.

A tag has been placed on Francis I of Beauharnais 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 person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles 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 biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I know "Weak" is debilis and "Willed" is animus. So would it be animus debilus since animus is second declension singular? Thanks. TheWeakWilled (T * G) 00:56, 8 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has nominated Louis René Quentin de Richebourg de Champcenetz, an article which you have created or worked on, 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/Louis René Quentin de Richebourg de Champcenetz and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. - Eastmain (talk) 06:10, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs[edit]

Hello Neddyseagoon! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 26 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 940 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Roman Catholic Church painter[edit]

What on earth is a "Roman Catholic Church painter"? This is an absolutely ridiculous category, particularly as it now includes Leonardo who never painted a church in his life and Cellini who was primarily a goldsmith.

A number of artists on the list painted works on panel or canvas which were used in churches as altarpieces. But very very few of them actually painted any part of a church building. I put it to you that it is a useless category, because no-one is likely to look it up. Not unless they are looking for a skilled tradesman who doesn't mind working on a very long ladder. And I do mean tradesman, not artist. A "church painter" fits into the same sort of bracket as a "piano removalist". A piano removalist isn't an ordinary removalist; he owns a piano trolley and piano straps and knows how to get your baby grand over the appartment balcony and your Flemish harpsichord onto the the top floor of an Amsterdam warehouse. Likewise a "church painter" (Roman Catholic or otherwise) is someone who can do wood grain, gold leaf and intaglio finishes. This "Roman Catholic" stuff has gone too far altogether!

For example, it is the opinion of some that regardless of what church Michelangelo was baptised into, he had actually become Protestant, and this is strongly supported by the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel which contains absolutely no reference to Roman Catholic dogma whatsoever. It is the opinion of others that regardless of what Leonardo da Vinci was baptised, he actually belonged to an heretical sect called the Cathars. There are others who are equally certain that although Leonardo may have been baptised at his father's wish, he was actually raised as a Jew by his mother. (Just think about the long hair and flowing beard at a time when these were uncommon on all but Jews.) Many of the Renaissance painters embraced the Classical Humanist philosophy, and may have been effectively pagans, regardless of what works they were commissioned to do.

The whole category should be disbanded. And as for the recent inclusion of Leonardo as a "Roman Catholic writer", that is ludicrous. Nothing that Leonardo wrote is "Roman Catholic" in nature, except his occassional criticism of the church or monastic life. The category "Roman Catholic writer" ought to include only those people whose works are in some way significant to Roman Catholicism, eg St Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Voragine etc. Amandajm (talk) 09:57, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Romanbikini.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Roman cities[edit]

Hi,

I am would to contribute to the Roman cities page, especially the ones in Romania.

But I am not sure I understand the categorization. Are you adding the old roman names and then links to articles about the ancient cities, or the current names and links to modern city article?

The Roman towns and cities in Romania has a mix of modern names/articles and ancient names/articles. My suggestion would be to have both old and new, and links to both old and new

Related to it, here is a list of Roman cities from Dacia/Thrace List_of_ancient_cities_in_Thrace_and_Dacia#Roman

Also, is there anywhere a complete list of cities, regardless of country, similar to the page on Dacian cities?

You are now a Reviewer[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 00:42, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I only left it in in hidden text since I'd argue it wasn't unprovable OR on my part but a pretty self-evident fact (what other International Rescue is it going to be?) awaiting a reference, a reference that would to prove it was a deliberate reference on the scriptwriter's part - but I wholly understand that in Wikipedia terms that is pretty much the same as OR and that anything constituting, resembling or encouraging OR has to be avoided at all costs, particularly on Who pages where OR and all sorts of other nasties can get pretty rampant. My apologies and I "won't do it again". :-D Neddyseagoon - talk 12:06, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
PS - I'ld suggest also that the sentence is one "needs no source because no one is likely to object to it, but we know that sources for that sentence exist", to quote Wikipedia:No original research - but I entirely understand if you and others think not.Neddyseagoon - talk 12:11, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that while this instance is (relatively) non-controversial, it would open the floodgates, and IPs etc. could quite reasonably say, "Why can't I say X because that's probably true as well." And we could really do without all that! ╟─TreasuryTagestoppel─╢ 12:37, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Very true - must stop the slippery slope, and am ready and willing to sacrifice my edit on that altar.Neddyseagoon - talk 13:10, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pope Joan (2009 film)[edit]

Thanks for the expansion of Pope Joan (2009 film)! I think I created that stub a fair while ago, nice to see it fleshed out now.
One thing, if you based that plot section on the content of the German article, to comply with the CC-by-SA license you'll need to make note of the source in an edit summary. See the WP:Copying within Wikipedia page for more on that.

Winery of questionable notability that doesn't appear to have any reliable sources for expansion beyond being an WP:ADVERT

It's a long long story[edit]

Back in 2006 you have created the bulk of Church of St Michael the Archangel, Framlingham. Some curious typos still give away the original source. Could you please revisit the article and alter/paraphrase/rearrange the contents? I don't feel like writing about art based on someone else's description.

I have nominated Martin Warner, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Martin Warner (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.
