Map of Europa Island

edit

Excellent map! Do you have comparable maps of the other Îles Éparses?Ratzer 23:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I reloaded the Sat Image with high resolution and tried to orient it north by eyeballing in comparison with different outline maps. I think you just turned the original image 180 degrees and made the map from it. To my best estimate, north is up when the image is turned 208 degrees clockwise. I uploaded the turned image to commons and referenced it from the Europa Island article. Perhaps you can turn your map 28 degrees more clockwise such that north is up, or place an arrow that points 28 degrees to the left.Ratzer 11:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
If one day you like to do a German-language version of the map, here are the translations:
  • Mozambique Channel = Kanal von Mosambik
  • former settlement = frühere Siedlung
  • garrison = Garnison
  • meteorological station = Meteorologische Station
  • reef = Riff
  • lagoon = Lagune
  • sand = Sand
  • bushes = Gebüsch
  • mangrove = Mangroven
  • marsh = Sumpf
  • steppe= Steppe
  • forest = Wald
  • sisal = Sisal
  • ponds = Teiche --Ratzer 21:01, 1 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

decreolisation

edit

excuse-moi pour ma reponse qui est en retard... mon créole reunionnais n'est pas bon, je comprends plus le creole mauricien mais j'ai compris ce que t'as dit... quand une langue, comme reunionnais, se rend plus près de français, ca n'aurait plus etre un creole mais une dialecte régionale... ca c'est fait dans le changement de vocabulaire, de prononciation, le grammaire est en train de changer et ressemble plus en plus langue française...

Lisez cet article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilect#Stratification ...il faut connaitre qu'en certains cas, qu'une langue devienne plus de son parent(francais en ce cas)..les distinctions, disons, les 'lect'(basilect, mesolect, acrolect, les modes de parler, quelques personnes parlent une dialecte plus proche de francais, donc c'est un 'acrolect') ne sont pas actuellement devenus dialectes de francais a cause du grammaire, je pense que les parleurs des acrolectes prennent des vocabulaires francais ou ils peuvent prennent des equivalents mots créoles..Domsta333 (talk) 12:57, 1 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Orchid Album, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Robert Warner. 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Pierre Sicaud

edit

Hello Channer,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Pierre Sicaud for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:23, 20 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
