Hola, Error, he visto las plantillas que pusiste en los artículos relativos a Jarcha, para refundirlos. Ya he expuesto en la discusión de la página que sería un error (y eso que no sabía tu nombre:-) el fundirlo en el artículo "Kharja,, part of a Moaxaja", porque la jarcha posee una identidad proia muy fuerte, y es en muchos casos generadora de la moaxaja, y no al revés. Mi propuesta es que quede como único artículo Jarcha, y que los otros te lleven a él. O bien Kharja, pero no sé porqué primar la grafía árabe frante a la occidental, si la wikipedia es inglesa. Además, para el mundo árabe la jarcha es una anécdota sin importancia y en cambio, en la Península Ibérica significa el comienzo de nuestra literatura. En cualquier caso, he ampliado la entrada Jarcha, y he incorporado el contenido de las otras dos, así que está (creo) preparada para hacer la fusión. Pero no sé cómo hacerlo, sólo llevo un par de meses en Wikipedia y no domino si hay que consultarlo, si lo tiene que hacer un bibliotecario o si simplemente se hace y ya está. Como tú propusiste la fusión, creo que es adecuado consultártelo.

Can you possibly help out with my question at Talk:Catalonia#Language? So far, the only answer I've gotten is basically that I'm a "bastard" and should "die" for conjecturing that nearly all Catalans can speak Spanish. So, do you know whether, as I was asking in the first place, there are some statistics on this? (Or if this is outside your realm, so to speak, can you suggest whom I might ask?) - Jmabel | Talk05:06, 25 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi there.
Hey, I just can't find those changes I made in the entry ETA which you have deleted or reverted: where did they go?. It is kinda frustrating that those minutes I spent trying to make the entry more neutral have been wasted.
I am not interested at all in posting again my changes only to see you removing them after, I have better things to do and if the ETA entry in wikipedia keeps being a biased one in favouring the Basque nationalist point of view...well, my life will be pretty much the same.
However I would like someone to warn right away in the top part of it that this entry is discussed por NPOV issues and I don't know how to do it by myself (I'm pretty much a dummy when it comes to computers). It would be nice if you did that of yourself. You can look at it this way: the entry will still call, as you wish, bombings, kidnappings and assassinations "armed struggle" by a "paramilitary organization" instead of a terrorist organization. So you will keep your point of view saved and, on the other side, if you help me by introducing that header saying that the content of the entry is disputed for NPOV reasons, I will be less frustrated.
If you are not willing to help with this, I would like -if possible- some kind of neutral guy to look into this. Again, I am kind of a dummy and I just don't know how to start a discussion about an entry.
Thanks, mate.
Looks like Mr. POV has taken some vacations from the ETA article (I surrendered first, though). Since I am afraid to awake the troll myself, would you go and mend the most obvious gaffes? I'm thinking, for example of the goal of self determination only for the southern Basque country (which is not true) and things of the like.
As I say, I would do it myself and I will if you don't feel heroic enough to do this (something which I could understand) but I am just afraid that I could awake the Beast...

Kaixo, I'm contacting you because you figure in Category:User eu, meaning that you speak some Basque. You must therefore be Basque yourself or have an intense connection with the Basque Country.
I am thinking that maybe was a good idea to create a Portal (or maybe a Wikiproject? or both?) on the Basque theme but I feel such kind of project requires more than just one person.

Hi, Error. Are you sure that the singular of Vascones is Vasco and not Vascon or something like that. For what I remember from my own Latin course in High School, vascones is plural of some declination by addition of the suffix -es (like in modern Spanish for instance), not any -nes suffix. In standard Spanish at least the used singular of Vascones is always Vascon and Vasco (i.e. Basque looks a deformation, not the original).
Checking in the Latin declension article, I find atrox, atroces, agilis, agiles, celer, celeres, etc. Nowhere you find a -nes suffix added but at most -es. It could be Vascon or Vasconis but hardly Vasco, that must belong to Romance.
Note that many third-declension Latin names do add a final "n" to their nominative forms before taking on the endings for the other cases. So origo (origin) -> origines; coniunctio -> coniunctiones. They are all words ending in o in the nominative (not us), just like Vasco, Vascones. (As far as I know, there are no nouns in Latin that end in n in the nominative.) --Smeira04:08, 5 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Y de hecho, se ha eliminado la de Helena Resano y alguna otra. La verdad estoy un poco despistado.

Hola, vi que has estado hablando sobre ese template en su página de discusión 1, así que quizá sepas algo sobre el tema. Iva a postear ésto en tu talk page de commons, pero me ha redirigido aquí. La cuestión es que han borrado el template, y con él, cinco fotos antiguas que había subido, sin siquiera ponerme un mísero mensaje en mi página de discusión. ¿Sabes si lo van a volver a poner, o si hay otra opción para volver a subir fotografías antiguas tipo las que se aceptaban con este template, mediante algún otro?

Hola.
Me dices lo siguiente:
"User:Onofre Bouvila me pregunta por el borrado de la plantilla. Me parece que las fotos que querías subir eran demasiado recientes para Commons. Parece que lo que los tribunales entienden como simple era bastante limitado (en alguna parte he leido que quizá fotos aéreas, cámaras de vigilancia, radiografías médicas). No cubre las fotos de los 60 que querías poner."
No te entiendo.
Te pregunto por el borrado de la plantilla, sí.
Pero luego me dices que mis fotos eran demasiado recientes para Commons: bueno, eran más antiguas que esos 25 años que requería el template y por consiguiente no eran demasiado recientes para Commons.
Luego me dices que lo que los tribunales entienden como simple era bastante limitado. ¿Entonces el problema ya no es la antiguedad, si no la concepción de lo simple?
Y luego dices que no cubre las fotos que quería poner.
Bueno, no te entiendo demasiado, pero aquí el problema está en que han borrado la plantilla. No es que mis fotos incumplieran lo que la plantilla decía, ni que el concepto de simplicidad de los tribunales fuera ambiguo; es que directamente la plantilla no existe.

(Den Arnamagnæanske Samling[3]) I've no idea if the manuscripts you refer to are located in Iceland or Denmark, but the current text places the University of Copenhagen in the wrong country.

Fair use rationale for Image:Eusko_alkartasuna_128.gif
Latest comment: 1 March 20081 comment1 person in discussion
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Eusko_alkartasuna_128.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi Error. Just recently someone pointed out that Basque Country (historical territory) was no apt naming. I agree with that, even though the new name we ended up with is not that exciting after all. Only now I remember about you and I think it would have been good that you said your word there.
But my question is regarding something else, not the name. It is about the flag. An anon has inserted the ikurriña as the Euskal Herria one. I know for a fact that it is used outside of the Basque Autonomous Community....my question is, which is the status of the Navarrese flag among Basque abertzales? they frown upon its sight? they kinda tolerate it? they burn it?
I think one of the worst kept secrets of Basque nationalism is that whatever historic background it could have should be found in Navarre (Kingdom of Navarre, etc) not in the back then happy-to-be-posh-Spain Vascongadas...but I would like to hear from you how the guys cope with this situation...
There are those that hold that the BAC is part of the maritime Navarre, a precedent of a greater Basque state. As such, the flag of Navarre could be used as a flag for the whole of it. It has also its use as a symbol of Navarrese pesonality in a Basque state. At the same time, the Arrano Beltza is thought by some as a more authentic symbol. (There is a song by Mikel Laboa mentioning it, check the Arrano article.)
Thank you. Since I posted my question here, the ikurriña has been moved again (something which I am ok with).
Now, this is more like a personal interest rather than a genuine wikipedia question, as such, you dont have to answer if you are busy or just dont feel like answering. The question is: ok, understood that some abertzales do use the Navarrese flag, but, how widespread would you say that usage is? is it like rather anecdotical or you get to see this flag in a convenient second or even third (but sizeable) place after the hegemonic ikurriña at abertzale meetings? Thanks again. Mountolivele déluge23:23, 14 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
I don't really know. I haven't seen many abertzale meetings recently and I think it would be different in Navarre proper. Try searching in Flickr for "abertzale" or something. --Error (talk) 20:36, 15 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
That was a good tip to make a flickr search. Indeed I found one isolated Navarrese flag in this and that picture (or was it Occitan? not sure, as this one also appeared at some particular abertzale rally...dont ask me why) so, with this ridiculously small sample, I am guessin that one every 10 flags could be the Navarrese one, even though, as you aptly point out, it may be a higher turnout at Navarre itself. Thank you, really. Mountolivele déluge22:45, 15 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

This is a stock message to a number of people who have contributed to the article on the ‘’book’’ series of Captain Alatriste as an FYI. I have added a character infobox to the article. If you have time, enter the edit function in article and fill in appropriate information after the = sign. Fill in only what you think applies, but please leave all fields there. If nothing comes after the = sign, then it won’t appear in the article. On the other hand, if someone DOES think the field applies, they can add pertinent info.
I do understand that this is technically a series article and not a character article. I’ve added the info box because 1) the series does revolve around Alatriste in large part and 2) the box really does improve what little is on the article right now.

Also in the Picos of Europa, and some other areas of Asturias."

Celtic Gallaecia ha sido borrado recientemente. Por lo que leo en Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Celtic Gallaecia, tenía varios meses pero no años. En 2006 parece que también hubo un artículo de ese nombre pero la Wayback Machine no parece tener copia de la página de debate. El artículo no lo escribí yo y el comentario citado no es mío.

Interesting addition to the article. I submitted it to Featured Article Candidates awhile back, but got nebulous complaints about prose. Anyway, do you have a reference for that claim? Every notable sentence is currently referenced as is, and it is an A-Class article as it stands, so I just want to be sure to keep it that way. My recollection is that the purple = Comuneros idea comes much later in the 19th century, and that there's no evidence there was a purple flag raised at Villalar (except centuries later).

For one phonological citation I need an uppercase "I", as in "Italy", with _serifs_ to distinguish it from lowercase L. You advised "The Classic skin uses a serifed font, if you can accept a personal solution." I'm sorry, I don't catch your meaning. Where do I find the Classic skin, what is a personal solution, and why wouldn't I accept it? Kotabatubara (talk) 17:52, 2 July 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hello. You seem to have been editting for six years, but nobody has told you the most basic rules yet, so here they are:
Look at the article to see how it is laid out. The Table of Contents is the best place to start.
Read the article to see if what you want you want to add or remove is appropriate, necessary, or adds value.
Search for the right place to put it.
Check Use the "Show Preview" to make sure that what you have done is appropriate and correct.
Be aware
that an addition inserted between two sentences or paragraphs that are linked in meaning can turn the existent paragraphs into nonsense.
that a lengthy addition or the creation of a new sub-section can add inappropriate weight to just one aspect of a topic.
Your addition to Islamic influences on Western art added a whole, new Major heading just to make the point that Islamic carpets were used in Transylvania. You gave it the heading Transylvania which is completely out of context with all the other headings in the Table of Contents.
The only country that has a heading is Spain. Why is this? Because much of Spain was under Islamic rule during the period covered in this article, and therefore Islamic art prevailed in that European country.
If you were a new editor, I'd fix this by incorporating your edits, but since you are not, I am going to leave it to you to find the right location for you valuable info in the article.
Here is the material:
Transylvania
Rich Protestant Transylvanian Saxon merchants traded with the Ottoman Empire and often donated Anatolian rugs to their churches as a vertical decoration more according to their iconoclastic beliefs than the images of the saints used by the Catholics and the Orthodox.
Churches like the Black Church of Brasov still hold collections of rugs.

Hi Error. I hope I have not done here an technical error due to Wiki-unexperience but I would know why you had hand in Alten Page related to a problem of unexplained deletion. In fact, ALTEN company for which I speak is undergoes vandalism attacks on wikipedia page (of company and its CEO himself) about a dispute (justified or not, it is not yet the problem here) between country management in Spain and works committee. As community manager of ALTEN, I sent an alert to these users to ask to stop it, following Wikipedia policy and process. They have continued to attack our pages and I need to intervene each day. Please, thank you to help me to not turning Wikipedia into a polemic page until situation is not clarified.

We are waiting for your explanation about why updating Alten's wikipedia page with real information ( see References ) of the company is 'an attack'
Vandalism is to erase true information about a company because you don't like it.

Hello Error!
I made some changes on WI-38, based on this piece in Slate, that were reverted. Since you made similar additions earlier this year, but got no response on the talk page back then, I wanted to alert you about the discussion happening there now. —St.nerol (talk) 19:58, 8 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi, regarding this, don't you think it's just better to delete the category "Category:Madrilenian culture" and be done with it? The new category "Category:Culture in Madrid" looks better, less "essentialistic" and way more flexible, to be honest, while both serving for pretty much the same purpose. Best regards.--Asqueladd (talk) 15:10, 4 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Asqueladd: I thought about it. Deleting a category and reclassifying the articles is more work than just recategorizing the bad one. Feel free to do it. I won't. --Error (talk) 16:48, 4 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello Error,
Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Joseywales1961 and it's nice to meet you :-)
I wanted to let you know that I have tagged an article that you started, Comodoro Py for deletion, because it is unnecessary per one of the criteria at WP:G14.
If you feel that the page shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.
For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Joseywales1961}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Just letting you know, I changed the pronunciation transcriptions on Llanito to [ʝaˈnito]. They're no longer in conflict. My transcription is still unsourced, but it's the typical pronunciation of "llanito" as a Spanish word. What do you think? Erinius (talk) 13:59, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Strange. In Spanish, it should be Script error: No such module "Lang"., with an accent, as in Script error: No such module "Lang".. Image 365 seems to use Cuarteron again.
Unless you can find that the most used form in English-language bibliography is Cuarteron, I think it should stay as Cuarteroni. If he usually used Cuarteron in English, it should be noted, though.

As serendipity would have it, I'm very interested in growing microgreens at home. Are you knowledgeable about the subject?

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Holokea requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Template:Redirect category shell: BCP47 is formally described in https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp47 . There is no ready-made code for Moriori in the subtag registry, but we can construct one using the U extension. Moriori can be considered a dialect of Maori or Maori-Moriori. The registry says that mi is for Maori. -u- is for the U extension. TR35 defines what can come after U. In this case, we want to apply an Unicode subdivision identifier, so it is marked by sd:
A unicode_subdivision_id, which is a unicode_region_subtag concatenated with a unicode_subdivision_suffix.
In this case we want the Chatham Islands, where Moriori was spoken. The region subtag is NZ for New Zealand. The subdivision code for Chatham is nzcit (from "Chatham Islands Territory"?). Putting all together, mi-u-sd-nzcit is, approximately, "Maori as spoken in the Chathams" (The standards people will clarify that is not the exact meaning, but it is something similar). As far as I know, there is no code to distinguish Moriori from the possible dialectal Maori spoken now in the Chathams. If somebody really wants a specific variant tag for Moriori, they could apply for mi-moriori or mi-mimorio or something similar at the ietf-languages list doing the light paperwork (lighter than applying for an ISO-639 code).
For private use you can use mi-x-whatevr if you want. mi-u-sd-nzcit is more in line withe the standards.

Hello. I see you have been adding lots of "compatibility" Unicode characters for things like the katakana "mile" マイル drawn inside a single character box. I do not think these are a worthwhile addition to WP. Unicode is a bureaucratic organisation: its job is to ensure that "characters" found in legacy documents etc can be represented within Unicode. In some cases these may be explicitly deprecated, in some cases they may be totally erroneous (so-called "ghost kanji"); so they are not noteworthy. (We do not for example list all the ways in which all non-American languages cope with idiocies like using archaic units for air traffic control.) I may start a discussion on the Japanese project page, but I thought I would reach out to you first, rather than just go round deleting things. Imaginatorium (talk) 12:41, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Imaginatorium: I think it is worth it to have an article or a redirection to an article for each Unicode character. If they are deprecated or erroneous, people who find them would like to know.
Sometimes our target articles are not very informative, but pointing readers to a related article is better that nothing, I think.
Why would we want articles or redirects for all 150,000 Unicode characters? How many of them are actually plausible search terms? Fram (talk) 13:03, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps most of the CJK characters would be better served with a redirect to Wiktionary, but others could have a redirect to the corresponding article. We have List of Unicode characters and articles for the Unicode blocks. They would also serve as entry points to Wikipedia from search engines. If you wanted to know what are ꙮ, 🇧🇶, ⌘ or ⏍, shouldn't Wikipedia provide some information? --Error (talk) 13:15, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
No, why? If I wanted to know the meaning of word X in language Y, shouldn't Wikipedia provide some information? No, Wikipedia is not a dictionary, Wikipedia is not a database of obscure characters in any and all languages or systems. Fram (talk) 13:21, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
A, that's an essay, and more importantly B, it doesn't explain why these are all notable, or more so than e.g. words (which usually get a few lines about meaning and etymology in multiple dictionaries, but are out of scope anyway). Fram (talk) 14:15, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
As we do not appear to have an SNG for Unicode, then GNG would apply to determining notability for Unicode chatacters. Being part of Unicode does not automatically confer notability on each character. Donald Albury15:50, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
GNG is about notability for standalone articles. I don't think we are talking about standalone articles for most character instances. Some of them will merit them. Others may do with an internal redirect. Others with a soft redirect. Perhaps others will not merit any page. --Error (talk) 16:29, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps you can avoid calling them "notable", as that term is commonly used in Wikipedia in determining whether a topic is eligible for its own article. While redirects are cheap, there are limits. Donald Albury20:38, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the responses. My point is much more basic than "whether we need to add the Japanese for 'mile' to the article"; my answer to that would be "No". (As Fram said above.) But if we did, we would say "In Japanese the mile is known as マイル, a katakana phonetic rendering." The Unicode character you cite is legacy/deprecated/whatever, and is absolutely not the normal way to write マイル; rather, it is a crude typographical kludge to fit the three characters into a single character space. I don't know definitively, but it should be possible in modern typesetting software to create any required "tiny character" block in software - the list of available unit names in the Unicode legacy set is bound to be limited to an ad hoc collection compiled by an enthusiast in the early days of JIS encoding. Should we take this discussion to the Japanese project page, I wonder? Imaginatorium (talk) 03:20, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
