Re:wikEd

See User talk:Vinhtantran.

Okay, I will make a copy in vi.wiki so that we can minimize code to use importScript instead of long import code. I put it in en.wiki because many translators did so and both languages are in 1 server so I think the loading speed is not important. I've also translated Popups tool into Vietnamese, and I hope we will put it into Gadget, too, it is a very helpful I think. Vinhtantran (talk) 15:31, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

External map service links

Hello. You have been identified as having added or removed direct external map service links in articles[1]. There is a discussion at Wikipedia talk:External links#Issues with inclusion or exclusion of map service links about which should be done, and some more opinions would be good to find community consensus. --Para (talk) 23:06, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

ne:MediaWiki talk:Monobook.js

Hi Mxn, per chance I read "translit.js" on ne.wiki. I was asked for help by someone from gu.wiki who would like to have the possibility to insert both, gu-script and latin-script in the search field. I saw that vi.wikipedia has something like it but unfortunately I don't see it working (I use Firefox 2.0.0.11 and also tried Opera 9.25) I thought maybe You could give an advice. The ne:MediaWiki:Translit.js or hi:MediaWiki:Translit.js allow only to put the special script in the search box via keyboard. Also I have a question: how are the characters at sorted "var amhaHash" are there just all characters put or does this have to be done in a specific order.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, many thanks in advance, best regards, --birdy _{(:> )=|} 16:42, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Ohio Newsletter

Issue II - May 2008

From the editor: Here's Issue II of the project newsletter. We're trying to decide if this is sinking or floating. If you would like to contribute to next month's newsletter please jump right in at the News Desk! Have a great May. The Ohio Portal The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images. Selected Article: Indian Head Rock There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it. With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value. After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river. Billy Massie Article Assessment Reedy Bot and ShepBot are currently hard at work tagging all of the Ohio articles. We may need to have an assessment drive when the bots are finished. Think of it as a late spring cleaning. Please note your opinions on the project talkpage if you would be interested in helping! Over 10,000 articles have been tagged with {{OH-Project}} Article Achievements New Featured and Good articles Ohio was listed as a Good Article nominee; the result of the nomination was Not listed.

Jeff Schare bio

The First 48 has over three million viewers each week. I wouldn't call that a minor show. He has been named "Detective of the Year" twice and puts his life on the line to protect you and I everday. I think that makes him more noteworthy than a lot of others.

Project talk page tagging for WP:VIET

Blnguyen had requested me for the service of TinucherianBot to tag articles in the categories in Wikipedia:WikiProject Vietnam/Categories for the WikiProject Vietnam. I request the members to kindly have a look , carefully verify ALL the categories and remove all the possibly wrong categories. Please Dont misunderstand by being cautious here , as we have faced many issues with such huge scale bot tagging earlier. Once I get the final go ahead, I will start the bot with the final list. Thank you for choosing TinucherianBot for the project,. It is a pleasure working for this project...I have also left a note at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Vietnam#Project_talk_page_tagging and request your comments there. You are receiving this message as you are a member of the project. Thanks -- Tinu Cherian - 06:02, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Elder High School notable persons

Hello Mxn; I consider you an objective editor of the Elder High School page. Take a look at the tope three persons listed. They were added by an editor with the notability that they are football team captains. There may not be any hard and fast rules on notability but let me know your opinion please. For all the other athletes they played professional sports, or in the case of Grote a special award was named after him. Certainly if a player is named for the Heisman trophy even if he should not play professionally (for example) I think it should be considered notable, but for being named team captain it doesn't seem right. Let me know tyour thoughts please. Mfields1 (talk) 21:19, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

2008 Vietnam floods

Having trouble unifying my account at vi

Hi Minh,

I'm en:User:Babbage, and I'm trying to unify the bazillion accounts I've gotten at various Wikipedias over the years (I like interwiki linking...) I haven't logged into vi for a long time, and when I try to log in and get a password reminder now, it says (when I set ?uselang=en) that there is no email account set for user Babbage. Is there anything I can do to to either set the email, or change the password, or even delete the account if necessary? As far as I know there are no other "Babbage"s on vi. Thanks! babbage (talk) 22:13, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
