What happened to WikiSophia? I was using it to generate PNG versions of PPCHTeX diagrams, and now the site's down and doesn't want to come back up. Does anybody know where I can at least get a copy of Wikitex so that I don't have to do these by hand? Grendelkhan 16:47, 2004 Apr 17 (UTC)
P.S. You mentioned looking into dvipng vs. dvi2bitmap for WikiTeX; I was only able to achieve consistent results across an array of browsers using dvi2bitmap's gif output, though I purposed png. You may find otherwise, or we may be able to forego transparency; opaque png's worked wonderfully. Danenberg 12:31, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)
WikiTeX' new <chess>
package renders at c. 400x400 with \largeboard

I'm adding information about authors' library classifications to their pages, from the LCC, and from the Dewey where I can find it. I'm looking for some advice as to formatting and possible automation. Is there any way to make a custom little bit so that I can type
Funky!Syntax![LCC PS 3515.E288 Dewey 813.54]
(which isn't even any kind of syntax; I'm just looking for a way to get parameterized boilerplate) and have it show up as
To be honest, I'm not even sure what the best way of doing this is. (I'm just looking to classify fiction right now, so authors published in multiple areas shouldn't be a problem.) Maybe copy/pasting the relevant text is better. But what's the best text to use? Suggestions?
I'm planning on doing this for a long list of authors; I'd like to not have to go back and fix them after the fact.
Also, I'm putting this at the top of the "Bibliography" section for now; I don't think it deserves its own section. Thoughts?

You might want to remove your questions from the pump when you've found out the answer. :) Helps with the maintenance... Martin 14:46, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
In reply to your question: The images are not my creation. I simply did a search in Google for "moment of inertia" +"public domain", and eventually found a site that had the images shown, with a statement by the author that they're placed in the public domain. Nonetheless, I'll try adding dimensions to them in the next couple of weeks using the limited graphics programs I have, but it has to be done right (not in Paintbrush) so that the dimensions don't detract from the aesthetics of the current graphics.J-Wiki 23:50, 6 May 2004 (UTC)
I gave it a go-over for NPOV in a way that hopefully doesn't trigger a whole PC/non-PC debate over this. Let me know what you think. Alcarillo 15:58, 10 May 2004 (UTC)
Is there any rationale for removing medium-sized country flags? I tailored Media:Croatia flag medium.png specially for that purpose, the large version is just a blown up version of a smaller image, and thus pretty much sucks... --Shallot 22:35, 12 May 2004 (UTC)
Whoops! I just converted a bunch of BMPs to PNG (Espirito Santo maps by User:Kurogawa), and then noticed that you'd already uploaded PNG versions. Problem is, we now have duplicate PNGs, since I saved mine with a lowercase extension, and yours are uppercase. Mine turned out to be about 50% smaller, though. Should we list yours on IfD? By the way, thanks for the pointers on IfD usage. I'll put deletion notices on the BMPs, at any rate... -- Wapcaplet 19:53, 29 May 2004 (UTC)
Hi. Your user page showed up on the Harry Potter category. I took the liberty of fixing a link on your talk page. In the section Pages I've made significant contributions to I changed the link from [[Category:Harry Potter]] to [[:Category:Harry Potter]]. Now you are no longer a harry potter character. I usually do not touch other peoples user pages, but I hope adding the : is OK in this case. See also the comments about that on Wikipedia talk:Categorization. Hope you're not slytherin ;-) Chris 73 | Talk 12:27, 31 May 2004 (UTC)
Hello. First of all let me begin with praising you for the images you have added to the FFVI-article, they are all great. But why such heavy anti-aliasing? Is it even at all proper to use anti-aliasing on in-game screenshots as it enhances the quality of the graphics? Would it not it be better to use unaltered (albeit compressed) in-game screenshots and then maybe add some pictures from Mr Amano's official artwork if those do not suffice? Masken 17:37, 9 Jun 2004 (UTC)
It has been June 26 (UTC) for almost 2 hours, and those are the dates that apply to VFD. The only thing wrong w/ the heading you removed was that Igpen made the same mistake and mislocated their post.
I'm not only logged off (and thus can't do section edit), but have to leave this wide & thus VFD-friendly pipe. Could you restore the 26th hdg, just after Cat & Mouse Game? Tnx.

Omigosh; i've never used that watch for that before, and probably never worried about whether the date is right on it. Thanks for cleanup & assistance! (My mistake was fairly obvious as soon as i got home.) Of course that means i moved stuff to /Old prematurely too. [Sigh] --Jerzy(t) 05:58, 2004 Jun 24 (UTC)
Thanks for the compliments! I'm not sure whether I'll need supercomputing capability for rendering; Yafray is slow to render on my Athlon (a couple hours for a grainy high-res version of any fairly complex scene, and probably overnight for a non-grainy version), but as I'm finding out, it's usually better for illustration purposes to use cartoon-style rendering (like Pin tumbler lock and disc brake have), for which by far the greatest amount of time is spent tweaking lighting and materials and finding the right camera angle; Blender renders those in a few seconds. I've toyed with the possibility of rendering some nice photorealistic versions in Yafray to give a clearer idea of the actual appearance of various parts. Such renderings could have a few advantages over photographs of the actual item - it's easy to color-code and isolate parts of interest, and there's potential for animation - but I'd be wary of using those if quality photographs are available, since I'm not that confident in the visual accuracy of my model :-) Anyhow, I appreciate the offer, and will keep it in mind just in case. Thanks again! -- Wapcaplet 17:20, 4 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for doing most of the Category:Fictional cleanup. I was a bit disappointed that nobody else so far was interested in the discussion. -- Pjacobi 09:18, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Yikes! You overwrote my firefly image! That image was displayed on my user page. Please, next time, give your image a different name. --xjaymanx 03:18, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for your kind words! I do enjoy doing the diagrams. I've made a start with zoom lens, let me know what you think of it. I don't know that much about cameras or photographic lenses, unfortunately, but I do have references to hand. If you can link those non-free diagrams you mentioned, I can have a shot at adapting them. -- DrBob 04:31, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Ok it took me months to actually answer this!
I'm talking about Image:AlysonHannigan.jpg. You'd asked me whether I had a bigger version of it. Well, I do, but it's not that good actually. It's 654x798. (And she's got red eyes). What should I do? Leave the small one, where flaws are invisible, or put this one anyway?Lazarus Long 18:32, 23 Oct 2004 (UTC)
Have posted something in response to your question. - Uncle Fester 16 November 2004
Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "((DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual))" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "((DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual))" with "((MultiLicensePD))". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Thanks for listing unneeded images for deletion. It helps keep the place tidy. I also wanted to let you know that duplicate images, or scaled-down (but otherwise identical) versions of existing images, can be speedily deleted. Keep up the good work! – Quadell (talk) (help)[[]] 15:15, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)
Hi. I'm working on the untagged images project and came across a note of yours on a user's talk page asking them to tag their images. That's great – thanks for the help! But oughtn't you be tagging those images as ((unverified)) and removing them from the project list? That keeps me and others in your tracks from having to check the same images over and over, and it guarantees that the images are tagged somehow in case the uploader never resonds to your request. Thanks! Kbh3rd 17:27, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Color temperature was nice, them bombarded by photographers (I'm one) but still I wish they would have left just the physics. So I gave up.
Let's delete the CRI in Color temperature and just reference yours. But I still think the 8 patches still makes it easy to create a lamp with a high CRI and render color like poo. --Dkroll2 02:39, Dec 29, 2004 (UTC)

I probbably did get the pd-flag things wrong :-(, but my line of thinking was this, ok, it comes from a pd source, therefor pd, however it has been alterd, therefor can be in any copywight (anyone can take a pd image and then licence it under any terms they want, but its been uploded by the person who made thoses changes, therefor they have agreed to hte terms of the GFDL, therfor GFDL.
I forgot the part about flags not being elegible for copywight anyway...
oh, on the multilicence thing, it may be not be compleatly right to say that its only under one licence, when in fact its under two, or more. but i would hardly say that its wrong to only list it under one lincence, (even if it would be preferable, and i do try) tooto 11:42, 29 Dec 2004 (UTC)
1: there is no such thing as a 100% quality jpeg. even at the highest setting of the encoder jpeg will STILL NOT BE LOSSLESS. 2: if you use a digital camera then if what you get from the camera is a jpeg then please upload that jpeg (rather than a decode and reencode of it). If the camera gives a tiff then you either have to convert to either png or jpeg. png is lossless and therefore prefereable from an archive point of view but if you do so then thumbnails will also be png which may make them a bit slow to download. 3: do you know of any programs for the pc that can losslessly convert between baseline and progrssive jpeg?
point 3 was inspired by "and the software to make them baseline is free for anyone who needs specialized use" you said on commons. I know it is technically possible to go between baseline and progresssive with no loss but the only peice of software i could find to do it was for the mac. I was wondering if you knew of any such software for the pc.
point 1 came from the following quote on your user page "This doesn't mean that JPEGs should be saved at 100% quality" JPEG quality settings are NOT percentages too many people have the impression that quality 100 JPEG is lossless it is not.
As for point 2 as you say a single generation of high quality JPEG is hardly noticeable. The problem is when you get repeated edits on a jpeg the generation losses can build up. If the commons is to be viewed as a serious image archive then we need to try and keep as much quality as possible. Plugwash 12:16, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Hi Grendel
Just to let you know that your/DrGnu's X-ray of polydactyly is coming up for Picture of the Day on 20th Jan. You might like to check Wikipedia:Picture of the day/January 20, 2005 to be sure that the accompanying caption is OK. In particular, I wasn't sure that I'd got the photo credits right. - Solipsist 10:28, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Hi Grendelkhan, I snarfed the images from a public domain chess book, available here. I guess they could use the ((GFDL)) image tag, or maybe there is one for PD stuff, I don't know. -- Merphant 07:07, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Hi Grendel,
Just to let you know that the Featured picture of TRACE image of [[sunspot]s is up for POTD on 22nd Jan. You may want to check the caption at Wikipedia:Picture of the day/January 22, 2005. I've also created a stub for the TRACE satellite which would be worth checking too. -- Solipsist 23:03, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
There's a new project in town called Wikipedia:Image sleuthing, and you are hereby invited to become an official image sleuth. – Quadell (talk) (sleuth) 00:47, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)
I sincerely believe that we really need to lay down the law in stub sorting, and really provide a guideline. I believe that we should all attempt to reach a general consensus by April 2, 2005 in a set of rules that we can follow. Once we have built a set of guidelines, we can formally create a policy out of those guidelines. We need to define what a specialized topic stub is, how many articles it should cover, when is it appropriate to create it, what defines its need for its creation, what defines its need for deletion, what criteria it should follow, what are the general steps should one take when sorting a stub, whether or not to start using subst: for all templates, whether or not use subst: for all templates created by the meta-templates, and any other matters that may come up in consideration. I thank jag123 for initially creating the subpage for the project at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject Stub sorting/Guidelines. Even though they have been discussed, I feel that we really need to confirm everything. For that, we should discuss each issue with its own sections, and raise a list of issues that we need to nail down before really continuing on. The English Wikipedia is nearly at 500k articles. Either the MediaWiki software needs to handle stubs such that they can be found with a simple union of categories, or the sorting is done manually by Wikipedians. Personally, I think the latter is less taxing on the server load, especially when we use subst:, which I think would help the Wikipedia out, performance wise. Please make your comments at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject Stub sorting/Guidelines. I apologize for making this somewhat of a spam notice, but since the project has more members, the project can finally decide on these important issues at hand. -- AllyUnion (talk) 23:23, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
You were kind enough to contribute to the Wikipedia:Untagged images project; I beg to draw your attention to part 2 of the project - there are about 12,000 more images in need of tagging. Any assistance you could provide would be most welcome. thanks --Tagishsimon (talk)
No problem with the changes. Thanks for fixing them. I do batches of the Dot Project maps at a time and that particular bunch got the wrong line copied in place of the GFDL tag. Once I paste in the wrong tag, the rest of them "inherit" it and in this case, I didn't notice. I'm going to remove those directory listings that I put in by mistake. It makes me feel insecure to have them there.Catbar (Brian Rock) 17:00, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)
You mistakenly tagged Image:Dark.neb.arp.750pix.jpg as PD-NASA because the source was listed from the Astronomy Picture of the Day website within the nasa.gov domain. While NASA administers the APOD website, in general they do not own the copyright to images presented there and hence PD-NASA does not apply. In this particular case, the image copyright is owned by the ESO, is unfree, and requires explicit permission. Consequently the image has been retagged imagevio and placed on the copyright problems page.

On March 18, some anonymous poster deleted the entire text of your user page and replaced it with a few hundred links to porno websites. Did you offend someone? Or was it just random malice?
Anyway, I reverted it back to your previous text. You should watch your page more closely. Cbdorsett 06:13, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Yeah, I think it was the same one. I'm still getting used to the hang of things. I forget now how I found it, but I saw that the character had done the same thing to lots of pages. Oddly enough, he comes in from time to time, always with the same IP address. Is there a way to restrict him from making edits, or is that a pointless exercise? Cbdorsett 17:26, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Yeah. Looks like I accidentally pasted a IRC message or comment from somewhere in instead of "((GFDL))<br>Adapted from Wikipedia's FL county maps by Seth Ilys." like I meant to and did with all the other maps. I've corrected it. Thanks! -- Seth Ilys 21:16, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
EnsoniqESQ1.jpg is a copyright violation; it is exactly the same as esq1.jpg (http://www.ensoniq-archiv.de/bilder/esq1.jpg) from [2] (http://www.ensoniq-archiv.de/esq1.html). It's been removed from the page it was on, and will probably be deleted, eventually. If you have a replacement, or if the image was originally yours and got onto that site, please leave me a note. grendel|khan 21:25, 2005 Apr 21 (UTC)
Thanks for your efforts in providing links to Project Gutenberg. However, I'd suggest you may want to take a look at template: gutenberg author, which, when the subject of an article is an author, usually works much better. Personally, I think the template:gutenberg is most appropriate to use when the subject of the article is the book itself, or the book being linked to is a notable text on the same subject as the article.
Also, please be careful about mixing up authors with similar names. In the article Henry Drummond, you made a link to the PG text of The Habitant and Other French-Canadian Poems. However, that was not written by the Scottish Henry Drummond (1851-1897) but by the Canadian William Henry Drummond (1854-1907). There are already quite a few similar names like this in PG, and as it keeps growing, there will only be more.

I removed this line from Wikipedia:Untagged images (that you added) because it doesn't make sense.

Awfully sorry to disturb but you've just replaced a list of Bird's works with a link to Gutenberg. That would have been fine if the main point of the list was to link there but it was to provide a list of her books on the page. A (much scantier) list at Gutenberg isn't really a substitute. Any chance you could consider reverting it? I'd do it myself but that seems like bad manners. --Mr impossible 23:06, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Hey. You were wondering about whether The Iron Dream really was banned in Germany, or whether that was an exaggeration. I went straight to the source - Spinrad himself - and the content of his e-mail explaining the situation is in the talk page. DS 23:53, 27 July 2005 (UTC)
For the reader [4], currently 85c plus shipping, something to get started on if you are interested in the conflict. Of course NF has an axe to grind, so does MO; it is just important to take this into account when reading a book. Finkelstein has a new book targetted against Dershowitz's book; you may not be aware how involved Dershowitz is in Israeli affairs, IIRC, he sits on a committee advising on Israel's proposed "targetted killings."
Someone just uploaded a list of good, most pretty neutral, general books to the IP conflict page [5] can't think of anything in particular that gives a perfect neutral exposition of the 6-day war. (Don't dismiss older books like Khoury's say, it's interesting to see how history gets rewritten, and important things get left out of later works..) Shlaim's Iron Wall could also be on that list The causes are a complex and murky affair, see [6] ; they really are not something that should be a first thing you try to understand about the conflict. The US state department just released the US records of that time, there may be people writing good books right now, though I don't think there were major surprises.
However, I think your proposal for the intro is good, just attacked after blockade is good, no preemptive. (Military is not really good in front of blockade, as it is unclear how serious Nasser was about the announced blockade.) It is quite disputed that Nasser wanted to go to war, in fact the opposite is pretty much the consensus. He wanted to win the prestige war -keep the blockade, without war. As he, the Israelis and everyone else knew at the time, he did not have the material power to win one, and he appeared to be slowly trying to back out of the corner he put himself in when Israel attacked. By "sticks and stones" I meant "sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me" Israeli leaders also made some aggressive public statements at the time about attacking Syria, which Abba Eban, I think, later commented "did not add to the sum total of human wisdom" or something like that. It's a complicated issue, which should be mainly done by reference to scholarly works rather than a war of aggressive quotes, which can be hard to check the veracity of, and which both sides indulged in, though more the Arabs. The antecedents of this war and the 48 war are complex, the other ones are relatively simple and noncontroversial. You are right that the background needs more work e.g. it leaves out material for whole chapters in Oren.--John Z 06:11, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

Please see my note to you on Wikipedia:Reference_desk_archive/Science/March_2006#Is_this_monkey_a_Drill?. It's a very nice pic, much better than the one in the article. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:32, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

I noticed that you've been putting ISFDB publication history links into select articles; some with a note to move edition information into the ISFDB when editing opens up. User:Ahasuerus and I have been editing for a while, and the editing apps are mature enough to perform the kind of editing you're referring to. If you are also the Grendelkhan in the ISFDB wiki, let me know and I'll open up editing/moderation privileges for you. Alvonruff 17:53, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
