Leonardo statue

edit

Right now, the position of the photo of the sculpture is causing sandwiching of the text. One of the pictures has to go. Either the imaginative sculpture at the place of his death. (remember that there is an imaginary painting of his death immediately above, and the house where he lived at the time of his death is also depicted) . Or else the image of him outside the Uffizi Gallery in his home town, and where several of his paintings are hung. This statue, although not made in his lifetime, attempts to reproduce his appearance and clothing as described. I would prefer to remove the 20 century naked bronze. I suppose he was naked when he bathed, which he did regularly, but other than that, I fail to see the purpose of the nakedness. It seems a bit of a gimmick. I have already transferred this pic to the article Cultural depictions of Leonardo da Vinci. Which one of the three pictures do you think ought to be deleted?

Puente de Piedra (Zaragoza)

edit

I just thought I'd let you know that I say your article Puente de Piedra (Zaragoza) in the New Articles list--However, I think the article seems to contain a few errors: the article contains grammatical errors. Amy Z (talk) 20:41, 29 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Thank you Amy Z. Would you like to correct these errors?--Vladimir Shelyapin (talk) 06:11, 30 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Why is some Russian dude, who doesn't even speak any English and who does not know American culture, sticking his nose into stuff on the American Wikipedia?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.120.93.186 (talk) 12:08, 9 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

It is not American Wikipedia but World Wikipedia in English. The rudeness does not decorate you.--Vladimir Shelyapin 13:58, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
You cannot even speak proper English, dude. And what you tried to do makes as much sense as me trying to make edits on Russian wikipedia! Stick to things that you are capable of. Until you get a better idea of the English language and American culture maybe you should only edit the Russian wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.120.93.186 (talk) 21:49, 13 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia Stories Project

edit

Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'm scouring user pages looking for inspiring, motivating and interesting stories of how Wikipedia has affected the lives of people. I'm asking questions like "How has Wikipedia changed your life?", "What's the most interesting story you have about Wikipedia?" and "Has Wikipedia ever surprised you?"

Last year, we used the annual fundraiser as a way to show the world who it is who actually writes Wikipedia. We featured editors from Brazil, Ukraine, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Kenya, India, United States and England. This campaign was a huge success, resulting in the most financially successful fundraising campaign ever. It was also a campaign that stayed true to the spirit of Wikipedia, educating the public that this free top-5 website is created by volunteers like you and I.

This year we want to highlight more Russian-language Wikipedia editors, so I am in the process of planning a trip to Russia to interview editors.

If you or someone you know (or have heard about) has been positively affected by Wikipedia, or have something interesting to say about Wikipedia I'd very much like to hear about it!

Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know someone else with whom I should speak.

Of course, if you have any questions or concerns, please ask! I will answer as soon as I can. I apologize for any poor translation of this letter, I am using Google-translate. I hope it makes you laugh :)

Thank you for your time,

Victor Grigas

Привет!

Меня зовут Виктор, и я рассказчик с Wikimedia Foundation, некоммерческая организация, которая поддерживает Википедию. Я хроник вдохновляющих историй сообщества Википедии по всему миру, в том числе и читателей, редакторов и доноров. Истории совершенно необходимы для любой некоммерческой органицации, чтобы убедить людей поддержывать наш проект, и мы знаем, что у людей, которые строют и используют Википедии есть много, что рассказать!

Я ищу вдохновляющие страницы пользователей, и интересных историй о том, как Википедия влияют на жизнь людей. Я задавал вопросы вроде "Как Википедия изменила Вашу жизнь?", "Какая самая интересная история у Вас есть о Википедии?" и "Википедия ли когда-нибудь Вас удивило?"

В прошлом году мы использовали ежегодный сбор средств как способ показать миру, кто на самом деле пишет Википедия. Мы показывали редакторов из Бразилии, Украины, Аргентины, Саудовской Аравии, Кении, Индии, США и Англии. Этот метод имел огромный успех, в результате чего у нас была наиболее финансово успешная кампании по сбору средств в историе организации. Кроме того, мы остались верны духу Википедии, просвещение общественности, что это бесплатно ТОП-5 Сайт создан добровольцами, как Ви и я.

В этом году мы хотим выделить еще редакторов Википедии на русском языке, так что я нахожусь в процессе планирования поездки в Россию и интервью с редакторами.

Если Википедия положительно повлеяла на Вас или на кого-то из Ваших знакомых, или у Вас есть что-то интересное сказать о Википедии, я бы очень хотел услышать об этом!

Пожалуйста, дайте мне знать, если Ви бы хотели участвовать в проекте Истории Википедии, или если вы знаете кого-то еще, с кем я должен поговорить.

Конечно, если у Вас есть какие-либо вопросы или сомнения, пожалуйста, обращайтесь! Я отвечу, как только смогу. Извините за плохой перевод этого письма, я использую Google-перевод. Я надеюсь, что заставляет вас смеяться :)


Спасибо за Ваше время,

Victor Grigas

Hi. When you recently edited Mikhail Lermontov, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tula (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
