Order of the Arrow Song

edit

  The lyrics to this song are copyrighted, therefore I have removed the lyrics quoted in their entirety from this article, along with the links to a website which is also in violation of copyright (per WP:LYRICS). A notice about this may be found at Talk:Order of the Arrow. Only the melody is Public Domain, as I've explained on the article's Talk page. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have further questions in this regard. JGHowes talk - 03:36, 24 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Stroke order

edit

Hello Miss,

Thanks for your valuable work on CJK strokes. I will one day come back to help a bit. I see you are beginning on Wikipedia to some small incorrect approaches. About Order of the Arrow Song, the copyright rule is that texts are not free ($) to copy and share, you have to wait the death of the author + 70 years. If that's the case, then that's ok. For CJK stroke, I really love you cite me as a source ; ] But that will not be accepted, since I'm not an official expert (authors, teachers, etc) and that I never published any paper on this. I myself used several other sources to complete a bit the Unicode list, I sadly forgot to write them down by that time. I will try to find some to answer to the weak points you raised.

In the whole, all my encouragement here. It always need some times to learn the basic rules, and other users will help you to learn them. Again: all my thanks too for CJK strokes ! Yug (talk) 15:12, 8 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

I thought sourcing you for the chart might capture your attention. ;-) I desired to reference your chart in the CJK stroke list but since your chart was not referenced and you are the "creator" in Wikimedia Commons... This is what actually I like about a collaborative environment. Missylou2who (talk 16:51, 8 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
That worked, I'm following your edits : ] I let you work in peace, then I will come to give my comments. See you Yug (talk) 19:32, 8 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the note. As soon as I complete the numeric naming convention section (i.e.: 1-H, 2-S, 3-P, 4-D, 5-Z: 5.1, 5.2...) then I am done for my purposes; I look forward to seeing any improvements/repairs. BTW, I have intentionally omitted SWZ (unicode 31d7) due to my personal bias. The stroke image however is uploaded to Wikimedia Commons >> CJK strokes combinations, but I am not touching that one :\ It is addressed in the Computing section in the unicode table.

I just overflied your work, really, really nice for a new user. I'm just thinking to reorganize the sections CJK_strokes#Stroke_order, to merge it in the basic stroke section, and thus keep the naming conventions at the very bottom of the article. And I will also remove my image I think. I added it as reference in 2007, when the larger official list online (unicode), just contained about 16 strokes thus missing a large part. Now, the Unicode set have been expand, so ... well, my personal and unsourced (!) summary is not need anymore.
Last point, I'm not in the hurry for that, so... I will not attack it very soon. But I will ! Thanks for your great edits ! Yug (talk) 07:19, 12 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. I frankly would hate to see you pull the plug and remove this image as it well illustrates compound strokes, and for its wide use within other wiki sites. I suggest you find the correct citation and update the ref. You can update it to the latest version, but I would really hate to see this go away.

MissLou, you are in Chinese lexicography ? Yug (talk) 22:31, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Miserere (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Link to the disambiguation page is intentional. Miserere refers to Psalm 51, in this context a musical portion of a mass. The disambiguation page is a better link than to any one of the individual links on that page. Missylou2who 15:42, 29 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
