Trial and error I'm afraid... --Bob 16:18, 26 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Got photoshop? Open the map in photoshop, and look at the "information" window - hover the (computer) pointer over where you want the "dot" to go. The coordinates there should be the good ones - I forget if you have to subtract thirteen... I should make a note of this on the template talk page, shouldn't I? Anyhow, good that you asked.

wikEd

The wikEdlogo

Hi, I have seen that you are using the Cacycle editor extension. This program is no longer actively maintained in favor of its much more powerful successor wikEd.

wikEd has all the functionality of the old editor plus:• syntax highlighting • nifty image buttons • morefixing buttons • paste formatted text from Word or web pages• convert the formatted text into wikicode • adjustthe font size • and much, much more.

Switching to wikEd is easy, check the detailed installation description on its project homepage. Usually it is as simple as changing every occurrence of editor.js into wikEd.js on your User:YourUsername/monobook.js page.

Hi. I found you in categories of users who can contribute in English and Portuguese. I myself am a native speaker of English, but I'm well on my way to learning Portuguese. Just check out my user page and talk page, and join in any of the discussions. To keep updated, you can even put a watch on my user page, which will automatically watch my talk page. :-) learnportuguese (talk) 18:28, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re: Mapas do Brasil

edit

Olá Giro! Eu não sei se há uma tendência ao degradê, contudo eu optei por este modelo para evitar o verde-vermelho nos mapas de diferenciação de valores. Eu dei uma olhada na lista, e aparentemente a legenda está correta. Nada que não possa ser melhorado. Quanto as mudanças no mapa: eu adicionei a Lagoa dos Patos, removi os outros países da América do Sul e reduzi a espessura das margens (fronteiras). Concordo com você em criar arquivos para cada ano, porém ando um pouco ocupado e não poderei fazê-lo. Talvez você queria tornar List of Brazilian states by gross domestic product um WP:FL...

Flag of Brazil

Olá... Na página "Flag of Brazil", o mapa Flag of Brazil (dimensions), está marcando o Sirius como estrela tamanho número (2), e o certo é Sirius (1). Então não mude novamente. Obrigado. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chafis (talkcontribs) 02:55, 3 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Olá... O nome da cidade dentro do brasão da bandeira estava torta, e o ano também... estava muito mais para direita do que o normal. Falowww... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chafis (talkcontribs) 05:32, 7 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi can you edit this map to remove the Netherlands Antilles? Thanks. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 00:48, 22 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Sorry should have been more clear. I was going to use the map on the 2015 Pan American Games page, so maybe another map with the Netherlands Antilles removed? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 02:13, 22 August 2012 (UTC)Reply
I'm sorry. Yes, I'll do it soon (maybe in the weekend). First, I'll check if the newer version of world map distinguish Sint Maarten and Curaçao (it may be usefull somehow). Giro720 (talk) 19:40, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

An RfC that you may be interested in...

edit

As one of the previous contributors to {{Infobox film}} or as one of the commenters on it's talk page, I would like to inform you that there has been a RfC started on the talk page as to implementation of previously deprecated parameters. Your comments and thoughts on the matter would be welcomed. Happy editing!
