Thanks! I hope to help as much as I can. If I can just learn this *&^&$ syntax!

Feel free to ask me as well. I've gotten fairly used to the surroundings here. The first thing you'll want to know is to leave messages on other people's talk pages instead of your own. When someone leaves a message on your talk page, you'll get that big yellow message box. If you respond on your own, they will not get the same message box. (Kind of a flawed system if you ask me but a better solution doesn't come to mind). You can find their talk page by clicking on their user name. Then you'll see tabs along the top and you click on Talk. (Of course, if they have their talk page listed in their signature - like I do - you can just click on that and cut out one step). Good luck!  :) —Wknight94 (talk) 21:32, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Copyediting

Thank you for copyediting United Slovenia! I'll try to learn from your corrections. --romanm (talk) 22:16, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. Have a nice vacation in Slovenia! (Make sure to visit Ljubljana, Bled with Blejski Vintgar and Postojna Cave, if I may suggest.) --romanm (talk) 00:13, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Maurice Seezer

You're welcome. Hope you're able to use what I did for the article as a learning experience ... it takes a bit of work to understand how categories and stubs work (If you're looking for the master list of the latter, it's here.) Daniel Case 22:54, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Wikimedia Canada

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there!--DarkEvil 14:40, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Uruguayo

Hi James, Ernesto here...

Here goes the answers to your questions:

I live in Uruguay, in Montevideo today. I was in Vernon, BC for 3 months last year on a Canada World Youth exchange.

So you were in Uruguay... where did you go? (Summer and beach side, right...). Did you like it here?

OK, this is all, hope to hear from you

Tickets

Hey! Yes, i am living in Slovenia, near the city of Domžale. What do you want to know about the tickets? --Defy 01:22, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

You can just show up for both matches. The prices for tickets are:

Domžale-Gorica: (I recommend buying tickets at least an hour before the match to avoid waiting in queue too long)
Western (newer) stand: 2000 SIT (€ 8,35)
Eastern stand: 1000 SIT (€ 4,17)

Slovenia-Luxembourg: Prices vary from 1000 SIT (€ 4,17) to 3000 SIT (€ 12,52), depending on the stand. You can come 5 minutes before the match and still get tickets, as our national team currently has very little support from fans. --Defy 13:02, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:K3_yangju.gif

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:K3_yangju.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. OsamaK 02:59, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:NK Factor Logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NK Factor Logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 23:20, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:NK Factor Logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:NK Factor Logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 09:38, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:PrvaLigaTelekomSlovenije Logo.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:PrvaLigaTelekomSlovenije Logo.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:09, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Liverpool F.C. wiki

Hello, I am the lead sysop on the Liverpool F.C. wiki. It is a wiki dedicated solely to Liverpool F.C.. We aim to make the ultimate database for the club we all love. Since adopting the incredibly inactive wiki about a month ago we have greatly increased the article count and modernized it from it's previous state. The problem is there are not many active members on the site and we need more for the site to properly grow. It is well organized and on it's way to be a great site we just need more editors to expand. It is based on Wikia's network of wikis. Like Wikipedia it is free to use and the editing process is exactly the same. If you know how to edit Wikipedia you will know how to edit the Liverpool F.C. wiki. Now for the question you may be asking yourself. Why edit there? Wikipedia has articles on Liverpool. This is true. At the Liverpool wiki it is all about Liverpool. We allow editors to edit anything about Liverpool no matter how trivial. We allow edits on reserve and academy players, and even things as trivial as the fitness coaches for the year 2011. We also do not lock pages to registered users. That means if you have something to say about Steven Gerrard you can click edit and not view source and actually write something. I would love for you to come by and check the wiki out. Feel free to edit any page. Every time you click edit your ARE helping this wiki grow. Thanks for taking the time to read this! http://liverpoolfc.wikia.com/wiki/Liverpool_FC_Wiki --Coffeeclub213 (talk) 17:29, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
