Re: Redirecting alternate spellings of the same word
editWP:REDIR should have the information you're looking for. :) In short, a redirect is a blank page with only the text #REDIRECT [[pagename]]

Ka Sesotho
editKgotso, ntate McDonald.
Thanks for your input at the Sesotho talk page. I guess it really does depend on one's experiences but I do believe that there are numerous rational justifications to use the names "Sesotho" and "Basotho" (eg. ambiguity of "Sotho" which could refer to half a dozen different things) but I feel that the most important reason is that one should use the original form of the native name instead of arbitrarily modifying it (especially for a name which is not commonly used by average English speakers).
I am rather intrigued by how you peace corps guys manage to learn these languages so quickly and be able to use them in the countries.
What exactly do the peace corps do, exactly? Judging from the film "eLollipop" it appears that it's mainly an international volunteer organisation that goes to poor countries to attempt to uplift the people at grassroots level -- which sounds like a lot of fun (yes, I probably SHOULD take a look at the Wikipedia article and stop asking you this stuff).

I responded at my own talk page as I thought that might be more appropriate for this issue. Tebello TheWHAT!!?? 21:11, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Lesotho Slide Show (204).JPG
editThanks for uploading File:Lesotho Slide Show (204).JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.
If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
