Communal House of the Textile Institute. Been there in July, inside out - maybe the last year it was open for public. NVO (talk) 18:40, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
Im sorry. :[ I realize how immature and stupid that was. I really apreciate the work you do around here, on Wikipedia.

Please remove the vandalized version of the image from the image history (22:48, 4 September 2008). I noticed you did the same for the other vandalized Flames image.
Also, is there a formal system for making such image history deletion requests? I haven't been able to figure it out so I'm asking you directly. Kelvinc (talk) 06:07, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
You've saved my poor talkpage from fates worse than death!

For your tireless efforts in thwarting a force of evil which seeks to destroy all peace and harmony on this, our wonderful Wikipedia. A token of thanks from a CVN Senior Staffer, Kylu (talk) 05:39, 28 September 2008 (UTC) |
Hey dvdrw,
Thank you for your nice note. I am glad you liked the little piece on Sidney Eisenshtat. I couldn't decide if it was worth a DYK nom or not, especially since I have not nominated one of my own articles before.
Also thanks for the offer re the rollback button. I would be pleased to accept your offer--I would like to try to do my part.--Arxiloxos (talk) 00:29, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
hi DVD, thanks a lot. I try my best to make good images that can be used, I'm not an expert and my camera sometimes fails me, but you gotta try. I was thinking about adding the map as well, I didn't do it because it's an older one (for example the monument is missing on it). The map can stay, maybe we should an explanation that it's a bit older (probably before WW2). But I agree, sooner or later we need to have a good map with explanations on it (maybe colour-coded with a legend). ciao Gryffindor 08:08, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi DVD R W, and thanks for the warm comments! I would really like to write more articles about Israeli architects, such as Mansfeld and Kahat, Dov Karmi, etc. However, unfortunately, information on them online is severely lacking, and I don't have any offline sources at the moment. The Hebrew Wikipedia is a good place to start writing, but it doesn't usually list sources, which makes it difficult to create decent articles which also comply with the English Wiki standards. As for DYK, I thought about it, but didn't come up with a single well-sourced fact I think would be interesting. You are welcome to nominate the article though :) DYKs weren't technically meant to be self-noms, when originally conceived. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 22:54, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi again! Thank you very much for your support on the RfA and the warm comments. It passed today, so now I can start focusing on writing articles again :) Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 21:03, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for protecting my userpage from vandalism earlier this month. Your edits were so fast that I didn't even realise myself until just now. Thanks again! :) — neuro(talk) 08:19, 30 October 2008 (UTC) |
Hello, I'm a computer science grad student at the UW doing some wikipedia research. We're kicking off a study on dispute resolution and were looking for a couple people in the Seattle area who might be interested in being interviewed. Would you be interested? Let me know!!! Thanks, Leafman (talk) 18:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for considering me for an interview. Let me think about it, though honestly, I don't know if I have much to say about dispute resolution on Wikipedia. I find it an interesting topic to read about though. DVD 23:40, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Sure, sounds good, just let me know. Thanks again, Leafman (talk) 23:54, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
My friend, I never forget a request (which is why it's been on my Talk forever). I have shot three of the buildings, but still need to upload. I'm not so happy with them, but they were the best I could do. The Squibb Building is razor thing, sandwiched between two other buildings. Film Center is massive, so I there's a tiny area cut off. Universal Film is okay. Will put them here when they are uploaded, and you can choose. Best, David Shankbone 10:51, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
Lovely article. Do we have a category for architecturally notable contemporary synagogues? There are some really nice ones. Dresden, for example.Historicist (talk) 00:02, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

Gatoclass (talk) 11:10, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
I noticed that you added the Shfaram Ancient Synagogue to the ancient synagogues category. That category, to which there a number oof shuls that need to be added, is for "ancient" synagogues in the sense used by historians, i.e. , no later than the sixth century CE. I think we could usefully add several categories. "Nineteenth century synagogues in Israel" "Eighteenth century synagogues in Israel" and so forth going back. What do you think?Historicist (talk) 12:43, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Would you be willing to take a quick look at an argument about tags on the page "a land without a people for a people without a land" Thanks. Historicist (talk) 13:47, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Hi DVD! I'm afraid that only winners of Israel Prizes in 2000 (5760) and later have personal biographies on that website. As far as architects go, that includes Ram Karmi, Ya'akov Ya'ar [2] and Ada Karmi-Melamed.[3] Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 09:25, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Although I still haven't found anything, you'll be pleased to know that I retouched the original image of Aryeh Sharon. New version. -- Ynhockey (Talk) 21:50, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
Hi guys... I would be more then happy to help with more pics, Sharon is my grandfather and my mother has plenty of materials. BTW: the retouch of the Bogart tribute is great! I am also an amateur photographer... unfortunately, most of the images I have are in jpg, but I will try to get more negatives and scan (I have a Nikon scanner) at home, we'll see, will take some time, though, not sure the negatives exists. About the Wikipedia mechanics of copy rights: I am a bit lost in the lingo and procedures, so any help will be appreciated. On the copy rights: my mother has plenty of pictures and is formally part of the estate, so there should be no issue. Hope this helps... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Arielaloni (talk • contribs) 01:59, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
the AfD was no spark....I knew that it was heading for delete before I started writing it....The spark if that is what you wish to term it is the general appalling state of IP conflict articles...this I noted 3 years ago....maybe I am in too much of a hurry and want everything put right yesterday...Ashley kennedy3 (talk) 11:33, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
I'm very sorry, DVD, that I didn't respond. Your edit must have been lost in the others I received, and with the RfB going on, my wikitime is a bit scatter-brained, so I guess just plumb missed it. Yes, OTRS is the best place to send him. Once again, sorry. -- Avi (talk) 19:26, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
Hello. I'm part of a research group at the University of Washington (Seattle campus), and my group is reaching out to Wikipedians in the Puget Sound area. We're hosting a focus group designed to gather information on what Wikipedians would like to know about each other when interacting on Wikipedia. Our end goal is to create an embedded application that helps people quickly know more about others' history and activity on Wikipedia, and we feel our design will be much more useful if it's based on insights of users like you.
I'm hoping that the chance to help out local researchers, to engage in lively face-to-face discussion with other Seattle Wikipedians, and to contribute to Wikipedia in a new way will entice you to join us. The session lasts 2 hours and snacks are provided - one is April 8 (Wednesday) starting at 6 pm and the other is April 18 (Saturday) starting at 10 am. (Sessions will be held on UW Seattle campus - directions will be sent after registration.) Your contribution will be greatly appreciated!
Willing and able to help us out? RSVP here. Want to know more? Visit our user talk page . Please help us contact other local Wikipedians, too! Commprac01 (talk) 17:41, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

I did what you asked, although it might need to be expanded. Basically Hecker equates his planning of Bahad 1 with ancient cities surrounded by walls, where (in Bahad 1's case) the wall is the buildings themselves, and the 'city' is the empty space inside. This creates an 'ecosystem' inside which makes it feel like the person is less in the middle of nowhere. —Ynhockey (Talk) 23:28, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
P.S. Please don't worry about asking more question, and I'll be happy to answer any others you have, if I can! Cheers, Ynhockey (Talk) 23:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Could you please check Hebrew sources/interwiki on the subject, maybe a DYK hook? NVO (talk) 08:53, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
Just added a curious and sad tidbit on the talk page. Perhaps you may find a way to integrate it into main article. NVO (talk) 08:03, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
My RFA passed today at 75/2/1 so I wanted to thank you for your participation in it. Special thanks go to GlassCobra and FlyingToaster for their nomination and support. Cheers! --Rosiestep (talk) 02:53, 12 May 2009 (UTC) |
Thanks for moving the map - since I plan to move some text around I was going to look at the images last - Tony likes to have more double or even triple images than I do, but the MOS definitely says not to sandwich text between images. I had wondered about putting the map into a navbox at the bottom of each Millennium Park article but am not that good at templates. I will also reply on the bidge's talk page.
