Can someone figure out how to fix the wikitable stuff as to have it not mess up the Heiroglyphs? They used to be fine, but now are all messed up. Thanks in advance if anyone can. --LV (Dark Mark) 21:07, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
It should be :

But with the tabling, it appears as:

It's all broken up. It had been fine when it was formatted the other way, but now it looks kind of junky. Any ideas? Maybe someone could grab a screen shot of that and just have the image in there... although that would be a big step backwards, in my opinion. --You Know Who (Dark Mark) 21:08, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Who removed the cartouche from the heiroglyphics? I know that Jimbo isn't technically a royal, but he is a very important person on Wikipedia.-- AM666999 talk 14:39, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
It's not "Diogo", as it appears on the page, it's "Tiago" or "Thiago", which is the correct translation for James. Check the Bible out, in Saint James.
I added "Elmer Fudd." This is a language found on google. I dont know if I got it right though....--199.224.81.132 21:34, 20 April 2006 (UTC)
The bengali spelling is incorrect. It says Jimbo bales, not Jimbo Wales.--DIGIwarez 14:10, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

I know that IACOBUSVALES would be an utterly classical way of treating this name. Based on neo-latin convention, however, we use spaces, lowercase letters, we do not translate patronimics (eg, it used to say Iacobus Cambrius), and if a last name is not very easily latinizable, it is kept the way it is. For instance, with Wales, w is not a latin letter, and the phoneme ale would be el in classical latin, ael in church latin. Further, nothing in latin ends in the sounds ls. These are the conventions at the latin wikipedia: la:Pagina prima, see la:Vicipaedia:Translatio nominum propriorum (Translation of proper nouns), and also la:Iacobus Wales. This is an apologia so to speak, of my edit last week, and a caveat to those who mean to edit the latin section of this page in the future. Please don't.--Josh Rocchio 17:37, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
why are they considered two different languages? or is the gaelic, scottish gaelic

What's the number of languages/scripts based on? Is it the number of languages in the left column or the spellings of Jimbo Wales in the right column?
For example, if someone had just added Chinese onto the list, would they update the counter by 1 (for the number of new languages added) or by 3 (for Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Pinyin)? --334 14:07, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
According to the first edit with a counter (66 languages/scripts), you're right (Serbian is counted twice, once for Cyrillic and once for Latin). Thus, I've changed the count from 121 to 149. --334 02:40, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello! I know this page is for entertainment purpose only, but still the finnish translation Jimi Walesiläinen, is actually the translation of Jimi/Jimmy the Welsh. Correct me if I'm wrong. EliAS 21:06, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Why not add it in Pig Latin (Imbojay Alesway)--Thanks, Ainlina(box)? 18:10, 14 August 2008 (UTC)
I'm not Russian and I know only a few words in Russian, but in this language, full names include a patronym, for example Yuri Alexeyevich Gagarin is the full name of the first human in space, as his father's name was Alexey Ivanovich Gagarin (in turn, son of Ivan).
Consequently, as per Jimmy Wales, I have added "Jimmy" as Jimbo Wales's father's name, so it become Jimmyievich or something like that.

I'm not fluent in Japanese, but I do know Hiragana and Katakana. Anyway, shouldn't Jimbo's last name (ウェールズ) be Romanized as "Weeruzu" instead of "Weruzu"? And shouldn't there be a note by the Hiragana denoting it's not proper to use Hiragana for his name? Or should the Hiragana be removed altogether? -Sesu Prime (talk) 12:10, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
And I don't suppose anyone could have used a bit of time to add to the Wiktionary translation tables at Jimbo and Wales? --Yair rand (talk) 22:14, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
