Award
editHey, I've noticed you haven't been really active lately. I hope you're not losing interest in the project. Anyway, I've been meaning to thank you for welcoming me into the community way back in Ocober 2005. If you're busy in the "real world," I wish you good luck. --TantalumTelluride♪ 02:55, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Rhenania-RH-XX
editI see you have created articles on some ships in the swedish navy under the names Rhenania RH-XX, for example the Wachtmeister class that is refered to as Rhenania RH-98. I have not been able to find any other article that refers to these ships by the name Rhenania. What is your source? --Dahlis 12:57, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
HMS Royal Oak
editHi
I am at present engaged in writing a series of definitive articles on British battleships of the Victorian era. You have already written a short article on HMS Royal Oak (1862), which Wiki have classed as a stub. Would you object if I erased your words and did a more extensive article? I will not do so without your approval. --Anthony.bradbury 21:10, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- HMS Royal Oak page done if you would like to comment.--Anthony.bradbury 19:15, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
Eleventh-century battleships
editHello, Johann Wolfgang!
Thanks for correcting a most embarrassing typo in the HMS Swiftsure (1870) stub. Keep up the good work!

Royal Oak
editThank you for your kind comment.--Anthony.bradbury 21:56, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
A short Esperanzial update
editAs you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.
As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.
Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Happy wiki-Birthday
editHello friend. I wish you a very happy wiki-birthday on 25th June 2006. BTW, I learnt of the same from Wikipedia:Esperanza and i am wishing you a day in advance. All the best for the coming year! --Bhadani 14:54, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Maritime warfare task force
editHello, Johann Wolfgang!
Good news: Kirill Lokshin (talk · contribs) has recently created the Maritime warfare task force as part of the Military History project. Bad news: so far, it has only three members (the worst news is that one of them is me).
I think this would be a good forum for discussing of maritime warfare/naval history, exchanging ideas and establishing best practice at a more general level than the Ships project. If you are interested, can I suggest you pay a visit and, if you like what you see, sign up?
Regards, John Moore 309 16:45, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Maritime military history
editHello! As I see you have an interest in old naval ships I just wanted to let you know that a Maritime warfare task force has been established under the WikiProject Military history. Why not take a look? :) Inge 11:27, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much.
editI thank you very much Johann. However, due to real-life stress. I am unable to continue with admin coaching. Please forgive me. I am really dead beat and stressed out. It has been nice wokring with people like you, Johann! I hate to go.--Tdxiang 09:53, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
Need your support
editAs a member of the Project Philately I would like to make you aware of a discussion about the Category:Philatelists that some of us have recently come to a consensus about. The discussion is here, but essentially a decision was made to try and remove all the subcategories that grouped the philatelists into country categories even though there are only just over 20 pages referenced and some of the subcategories had a few as 1 listing. Besides which, I would never go looking for a philatelist based on a country of origin, even if I knew it, I would look at the category for his/her name. Anyway, this is up for discussion now at a CfD, categories for deletion, page and I would appreciate if you would weigh in on the matter having first looked at the original discussion. I am sure you will see the benefit and logic of getting rid of these redundant subcategories and vote a Support for this. By way of reference, one of these subcategories was up for deletion a short time ago and basically all the non-philately people won the day, overriding the philatelic viewpoint. I am sure you would not want that to happen again. Do not delay as CfDs get dealt with fairly quickly. TIA ww2censor 20:09, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
German unit
editYou wrote "I don't see anything wrong with that. I will help you if you want.". I'm not sure which "that" you were talking about. Is it
- The current status
- Changing them to upper case
Anyway, I am going to carry that on in a day or two. I know that the assessment thing is going on. But I would also like to make the German unit transition as quickly as possible. I will also notify Dove1950 and Nightstallion, for they care about the naming convention too. --Chochopk 09:37, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Discussion going on Talk:German mark. --Chochopk 15:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Antarctican dollar AfD
editSorry to spam if you are already aware. But I had to resort to personal message. Someone is trying to delete Antarctican dollar, I tried really hard to make a point at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Antarctican dollar. Now I need people to support the "keep" side. Thanks. --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 05:24, 18 September 2006 (UTC)

Carter Glass
editYou are right. In the 1964 edition of the World Book Encyclopedia, the "M" volumn under Money, Page 594, there is a chart listing U.S. currencies. Second from the bottom of the chart lists:
Denomination Front Portrait Back Embellishment 50,000.............Glass...........A Spread Eagle
I don't doubt this chart appears in many other editions of the World Book.

P.S. This is my first visit to Wikipedia. I hope I did it right.
suicide of ex PCOG member
editOn a forum of sorts is an entry by "Searchme" aka "Joe I" (I think) where he makes reference to the suicide of one John Briggs.
I am part of an organization that monitors and counsels people out of that cult, and really need to get more details on this, but have not been able to. I was also unable to find a way to contact this "Searchme" person, but your name is listed on his bio page. Would you please contact him and have him get in touch with me.
