== Kahak&#333; ==
Mark. How did you add the kahak&#333; to Waimanalo in the [[Makapuu]] article? - [[User:Marshman|Marshman]] 04:48, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

:When I edit pages, I have a box down at the bottom that says "Insert:" and has a whole bunch of accented characters, each of them individually linked via javascript.  One of them is the o with a kahakō above it.  When I click on it, it magically appears in my edit box.  I am using Moxilla Firefox 1.0.6, if that makes any difference.

:I thought that it said to do this on the [[Help:Special characters]] page, but it looks like the section I remember was moved into the [[Help_talk:Special characters|Talk]] section, and I can't find the section I remember seeing where it talked about this special "Insert:" box.

:In any case, I don't know if it's acceptable to insert the character directly or if it is better to use the <code>&amp;#333;</code> like you do.  What's your feeling? [[User:Markkawika|Markkawika]] 09:00, 22 August 2005 (UTC)

==Numismatics==

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia and our little Numismatics project.  If you need any help with anything feel free to ask anyone on the project.  Even without a current collection, I'm sure you'll be able to find many various and interesting thing to contribute, and then you'll have some knowledge to start that collection.  See you around.  :)  [[User:Searchme|<span style="color: #0047AB;">Joe I</span>]] 21:35, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

==How do you add in links?==

How does one add in links? I tried to link in [[Irish Mint]] to [[Currency Centre]], but I don't think I was successful. - ([[User:Aidan Work|Aidan Work]] 06:09, 19 December 2005 (UTC))

==I reckon you're not right regarding capitalisation of currency units.==

I still reckon that you're not right about whether or not to start a currency unit with a capital letter. Being a serious numismatist, with a very strong interest in [[Commonwealth of Nations|British Commonwealth]] numismatics, I have always traditionally used a capital letter to start a currency unit. See my article [[Coins of Cyprus]] & you will see that
the currency units start with capitals, as do the coins in this article [[Coins of Bophuthatswana]]. - ([[User:Aidan Work|Aidan Work]] 07:13, 21 December 2005 (UTC))

== [[Template:Infobox Coin]] ==

''I'm not an expert on templates nor css nor HTML.  Can you explain to me why you changed what you did on the [[Template:Infobox Coin]]?  Why did you make some things boldface that were not, some things a different size, etc.?  I'm confused.  Also, why didn't put some sort of comment on the Talk about describing why you did what you did?  Also, I assume you renamed it due to an ''improper'' name.  I have no problem with that, but I wish you had said something like "''this'' is the proper name, as stated ''here''" or whatever. [[User:Markkawika|Markkawika]] 22:15, 3 January 2006 (UTC)''

: I changed the template to use a centralized "infobox" style which handles the right-side alignment and other visual elements.  The row headers are now bold because they are now properly specified as ''header'' cells.  This is really helpful in some browsers and [[screen reader]]s because they can skim the headers without hearing all the content.  The use of ! over | for headers is covered in [[meta:Help:Tables]].  As far as the naming, that is per [[Wikipedia:Infobox templates]].  Sorry if the changes seemed too shocking.  I am performing a large number of such template/infobox improvements, and I try and keep things close to the original. -- [[User:Netoholic|Netoholic]] [[User talk:Netoholic|@]] 22:20, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

==The [[Shilling]] sign==

The Shilling sign is '/-', not only in terms of currencies such as the [[Somaliland Shilling]] and the [[Ugandan Shilling]], but the [[British Shilling]] as well. See the article [[Coins of Somaliland]] for further information. If you have any questions, ask me through my website; [[http://www.freewebs.com/royalist0007/]]. - ([[User:192.190.108.19|192.190.108.19]] 06:46, 4 May 2006 (UTC))

==Orphaned non-free image (Image:State-Quarters-Obv-Unc.jpg)==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:State-Quarters-Obv-Unc.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[WP:O|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. [[WP:BOLD|You may add it back]] if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|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 "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|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 images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. Thank you.<!-- Template:Orphaned --> [[User:BetacommandBot|BetacommandBot]] 02:24, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

==[[Football hooliganism]]==
Thank you for removing the in use tag I left on by mistake. In repsonse to this message in your edit summary, "Don't leave inuse tags on the page that long". I don't leave them on usually, it was a simple mistake, we all make mistakes at times. And I had been editing the article for a while and simply forgot that I had left it on by accident as I had intended removing it but forgot.[[User:Tangerines|<span style="color: darkorange;">'''''♦Tangerines♦'''''</span>]]·<small>[[User_talk:Tangerines|Talk]]</small> 15:20, 28 July 2007 (UTC)


==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Joe Walsh - Look What I Did.jpg==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Joe Walsh - Look What I Did.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images/media|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]].

==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:MarcCohn.jpg==
Thank you for uploading '''[[:Image:MarcCohn.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]].  This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Non-free|image copyright tag]]; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images/media|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If you have any questions, please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|media copyright questions page]].

== Oahu Wiknic on June 23rd ==

Aloha! I am planning to set up an Oahu Wikinic for June 23, as described at [[Wikipedia:Wiknic]]

My Wikipedia user name is Peaceray, I started about 15 months ago, & I have about 2,500 edits on en.wikipedia.org. I have been hankering to meet with some fellow local Wikipedians, especially since a few of us live in Kailua. To that end, I am sending email to or posting on the user Talk pages of 19 of us from the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Hawaii/Participants]] page who I could identify as possibly living on Oahu.

Please see [[Wikipedia:Meetup/Oahu/1]] & [[Wikipedia talk:Meetup/Oahu/1]]

I am open to any of the locations mentioned in the post, or other alternatives. I am like-to-operate-by-consensus type of guy, any workable location on which we could soon decide would be great!

Thank you for uploading '''[[:File:Eisenhower dollar reverse.jpg]]'''. 

This image is a [[derivative work]], containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work. 

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. 

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user=Markkawika}} in your upload log].

Aloha!


Last summer I moved to the Seattle area after 14 years in Kailua on Oahu. I immediately fell in with the [http://cascadia.wiki Cascadia Wikimedians User Group] as it formed, joined its board and became its first president as well as the [[Wikipedia:GLAM|GLAM]] representative for Washington State.

Recently, Adriel Luis, Curator (Digital & Emerging Media) at the [http://smithsonianapa.org/about Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center], contacted me about setting up an [[Wikipedia:How to run an edit-a-thon|edit-a-thon]] like the previous [[Wikipedia:Meetup/Wikipedia APA|Wikipedia APA]] edit-a-thon. In addition to discussing one for Seattle, he wrote:

{{pull quote|It's awesome to learn about your past in Honolulu - I'm actually going to be there for another SmithsonianAPA project mid September, and thinking that this could be an opportunity to do an event there as well! I have lots of contacts with UH and the museums, but do you know of any contacts on the Wikimedia side out there?}}

As I was working two jobs while I lived on Oahu, I did not have the opportunity to meet your or any other Wikipedians at the time. Hence, the reason why I am contacting you now.

If you would like to help, please contact me through one of these methods:
*Email me directly at [mailto:peaceray@cascadia.wiki peaceray@cascadia.wiki]
*Use [[Special:EmailUser/Peaceray]] to email me
*Leave a message for me on [[User_talk:Peaceray|my talk page]].

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of [[Banknotes of the United States dollar|United States banknotes]], yet only a fraction of these are represented on [[c:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]] in the form of 2D scans.  Additionally, [[Colonial history of the United States|Colonial America]], the [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]], the [[Republic of Texas]], multiple [[List of states and territories of the United States|states and territories]], communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, [[WP:WikiProject Numismatics|WikiProject Numismatics]] will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019|2019 US Banknote Contest]].  The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on [[m:Complete list of Wikimedia projects|all Wikimedia projects]].  Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#Awards|awards]].  Whether you want to claim the [[Template:GoldenWiki|Gold Wiki]] or you just want to have fun, all are invited to [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#How to participate|participate]].
