Template:WikiProject Military history tasks

Hi! Just a quick comment: since this template is included in some space-limited places (user pages and portals and so forth), we need to keep the lists reasonably short. If you're adding a stub, could you please also remove one of the existing ones, so that the total number of articles doesn't increase? Thanks! —Kirill Lokshin 02:42, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank You Mr McGregor

Very glad to see your efforts in the Battle of Hill 70' page. In all the brutal(and futile) battles of WWI this little battle gets pushed into the footnotes and forgotten. It is nice to see someone as young as you showing an interst in bringing the facts out for everyone to see. My own personal interest in this page...My great uncle Nathaniel Slater was killed at Hill 70. He left no descendants. Kudos for your work so far. Take Care ~Mr Pyles.

RE: Canadian military history

Hi there! Thanks for your note, which I've moved to my talk page. I'd be glad to participate and will – as well with enhancing Wp articles/content dealing with the current state of the Canadian military – but I cannot guarantee a speedy turnaround on anything these days. Thanks again! E Pluribus Anthony | talk | 18:30, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

You said: "Delete At least get rid of the word "Theaters" which is unacceptable bias in a category about a war between Britain and the United States.

Image copyright problem with Image:Canmilhist.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Canmilhist.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Sherool (talk) 23:17, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Looks ok at first glance, one possible snag though, that tag says that it's a photograph (wich it clearly is not) and the image was published before 1949 (as a WWII poster this is clearly good) and that it's not subject to crown copyrght. Since such a propaganda poster would generaly be issued by the government wouldn't that mean that it would in fact be under crown copyright? This is uncharted territory for me though. I'll post a querry on Wikipedia talk:Copyright and see if anyone there can shed some light on this. --Sherool (talk) 01:26, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Well this image is aparently something of a "special case" (it's PD in Canada, EU, Japan and other nations who implement the "shorter term" clause of the copyright treaty + in the US because of some technicality, but possebly not elsewhere), and we don't have a spesific tag for it, but I used the {{PD-because}} tag to insert the relevant info. Man this copyright stuff can make your head explode sometimes... Anyway it should be ok now. --Sherool (talk) 15:21, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Well one last thing: Do you have some better source info? Like a link to the actual page where you found the image or something like that. I browsed some poster galleries at a canadian war museum site but I didn't find the one in question. --Sherool (talk) 17:25, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Notices

The idea behind task forces was that they would be informal; I'm not sure if introducint userboxes (and especially a separate notice tag?) is the right idea here. —Kirill Lokshin 00:42, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Task force

Infobox template created by me was deleted by an unknown vandal

No-Marxism template [[1]] has been deleted; I regard it as pure vandalism. If anti-monarchism, anti-gun law, anti-imperialism infoboxes are allowed, I don't see a reason why infobox depicting negation of Marxism (the ideology whose results are Stalin, Mao and Pol Poth) is not allowed by certain comrades? I suggest taking necessary measures. (If the content or expression of such a view was not wholly acceptable, I would have modified the source a bit) Constanz - Talk 16:26, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

What is more, i could find 'no voting process for deletion (unlike deleting template anti-fascism, which was at least discussed).

No Prob

The Arbcom can be frustrating to be sure. No prob on that before. Karmafist 02:57, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

What are you doing?

Mike, you may think you're on some kind of crusade here, but this is not so. The out-of-process recreation of inflammatory boxes has to stop now. They're only fanning the flames and dragging other users into this misguided "they're censoring free speech" mindset. You're free within the boundaries set by WP:NOT, WP:NPA etc. to express your views on your user page. You don't need any templates for that. Nor do you need colorful tables which squeeze opinions on complex issues into 15 words or less, but that's up to you. The Template namespace, however, is reserved for encyclopedic activities. The basic goal of the project, namely building an encyclopedia, is non-negotiable. Moreover, you want to keep the polemics to an absolute minimum. Think this over, and decide for yourself whether you can live with it or not. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 05:04, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

I've asked you to stop harrasing me once, now I'm asking you again. I've tried to open a diologue with you already regarding the Bush templates, but you responded by making a vailed threat to ban me, deleted discussions I initiated on Request for Unprotect, attacked me as a "troll" to an admin and vandalized my user-subpage. I will not be making any more comments on your talk page, I ask that you do the same here and DO NOT alter MY user-space. Also, please do not delete any more of my comments in these debates, strike them out, etc. I've had enough of you. Any thing further and I'll explore my recourse options on wiki Mike McGregor (Can) 17:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Ultimately your user space does not belong to you and is subject to most of the same general guidelines that apply to all of Wikipedia. Posting deliberately inflammatory comments on your user pages is no different from posting them elsewhere. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 23:24, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Mark, We're done here. What part of that don't you get? Stop posting messeges to me and stop vandalizing my page and subpages. Stop WP:HARassing me. Mike McGregor (Can) 02:19, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Deletion of Template:User-AmE-0

Hello Mike: I believe that you are a bit mistaken, as the only action that I performed on the template was protecting it against continual recreation, and by adding the {{deletedpage}} template. If you check the log of actions of this template, it has been deleted no less than seven times, by administrators Kelly Martin, HappyCamper, Celestianpower, Doc glasgow, R. fiend, and Ral315. I do not wish to override the clear decisions of these six administrators, and also the wishes of Jimbo Wales concerning divisive and inflammatory templates. Doing so would be a mistake on my part, and would constitute wheel warring. Regards, Bratsche^talk 17:50, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

I have restored the template whilst the debate is under way. However, I think people are voting against good faith in simply voting keep without actually deciding if the userbox is detrimental to the project. I hope that you can discuss the matter accordingly. Bratsche^talk 18:25, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

This template should never have been restored since it violates established naming guidelines. In the unlikely event that it is kept, it should be renamed instead of being restored under its old, non-compliant name. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 23:26, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Developing a Wikipedia essay re: disclosing user POVs

User:Rogue_9/UBXGOOD Will move this to project namespace once it takes form. Since you've been very vocal in support of using userboxes to disclose POV and therefore help the project, I thought you might be interested in contributing to the essay. Feel free. Rogue 9 15:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

From what I gather, the writer of this box picked words out of the language that they thought might be what they are trying to say.

Your question

You asked what the template user 'the game' was about. The Game is a game in which the purpose of the game is to forget the game. If you remember the game, you lose the game. Therefore you cannot win the game because to win the game you have to think of the game, and if you think of the game you lose the game. It goes on for the rest of your life, and one of the less enforced rules is that, if you lose, you have to say 'I lost the Game', and explain it to the people nearby. Now read the whole explanation again, and you'll understand it.

I'm not quite sure why the article was deleted in the first place, but it was, and now they want to delete the userbox as well. Daniel (☎) 16:29, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

The article was deleted because it lacked a verifiable source. (I don't think that its a strong enough reason, but whatever.) There isn't really a reason why the userbox is up for deletion. --Anaraug 21:48, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

You can find more about it if you're so interested at losethegame.com (not a site I'm affiliated with, but it contains everything that was in the Wikipedia article almost verbatim). - dharmabum 08:09, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Abu Gharaib pictures

Sorry that it took me several days to respond. My personal, if somewhat uninformed, opinion is that you're probably never going to get the prisoner's names because FOIA (b)(6) allows the US government to withhold "personnel and medical files and similar files the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" and (b)(7)(c) allows the government to withhold "records or information compiled for law enforcement purposes... to the extent that the production of such law enforcement records or information could reasonably be expected to constitute an unwarranted invasion of personal privacy." The Bush adminstration has been very agressive about invoking the FOIA exemptions. Salon.com has published over 200 photos, and has provided the captions that these photos have on documents from Army's Criminal Investigation Division that were apparantly leaked to salon. I've used those direct captions to describe a lot of the pictures that I have posted on wikimedia commons. I suppose this raises a POV issue, because some would argue that relying on the word of and part of the US Army for information about these photos is essentially buying into a white-wash, but I think that they probably have no reason to lie on internal documents about who is who in the photos. I'll try to help you out, but I will probably be pretty slow with it, because I have a lot going on in my (real) life right now. --Descendall 22:25, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Military history WikiProject Newsletter, Issue I

The Military history WikiProject Newsletter Issue I - March 2006
Project news An independent military history peer review has been created for the benefit of the project. A number of articles have already been reviewed, receiving significantly more feedback within the project than they did on the generic peer review page. The project's Collaboration of the Fortnight got off to a great start with Ferdinand Foch and is now focusing on the military history of Spain. Two new task forces—dealing with warfare during classical antiquity and the Middle Ages—have been created. An effort to build a catalogue of high-quality maps for use in military history articles is now underway. The newly-formed translation department is looking for volunteers to help with translating featured articles from other-language Wikipedias.	From the Coordinators Welcome to the inaugural issue of the Military history WikiProject's newsletter! We hope that this new format will help members—especially those who may be unable to keep up with some of the rapid developments that tend to occur—find new groups and programs within the project that they may wish to participate in. Please consider this inital issue to be a prototype; as always, any comments and suggestions are quite welcome, and will help us improve the newsletter in the coming months. Kirill Lokshin, Lead Coordinator
Current proposals Proposed guidelines for categories of military people are currently being discussed. A number of issues have already been resolved, but the proposed scheme is still in draft form and further input would be very welcome.

Your Q at the VP

There are a few main solutions to this sort of problem. If it is only part of the article that is copied, just blank that portion. If it is the whole article:

• WP:CSD Articles #8 provides for speedying some very blatant copyright infringement
• WP:PROD or WP:CP for all other problem pages.

Hope this helps, Christopher Parham (talk) 07:01, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

• • BTW, make sure that the article is in fact us copying someone else rather than the other way around; there are a lot of mirrors and other content-users who are not very conscientious about maintaining the GFDL. Christopher Parham (talk) 07:03, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
    • The Saratoga page is alright, although if you think it needs cleanup regular tags can be used. Check out Special:Whatlinkshere/Dictionary_of_American_Naval_Fighting_Ships for many, many similar pages -- we regularly import the whole text of public domain encyclopedia articles into Wikipedia, so this is pretty much par for the course. The Lake Chicago source does not particularly appear to be public domain (there's no federal government markings or logos on the page). It would be a good target for WP:PROD, and if anyone can confirm the public-domain status of the page hopefully they would see it in the five day period. Christopher Parham (talk) 09:39, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

Good joke

I like the two templates you nominated for undeletion at WP:DRV/U. Very funny. --Cyde Weys 18:38, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm trying to assume good faith, but are you honustly tellign me you don't think these userboxes meet the T1 criterion? You don't think they are divisive in this community? You don't think they are inflammatory? Seriously? --Doc ^ask? 18:42, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Userbox consensus

The 'consensus' I refer to is the 61% support received by the userbox policy proposal in the recent straw poll. While 61% is obviously not enough to make a proposal into binding policy, IMHO it is sufficient to endorse the interpretation of T1 (which I accept is an ambiguous mess, blame Jimbo for that not me) in this way. Cynical 19:54, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Beer cats & kittens

Hi Mike. It has been suggested by User:BrianSmithson and supported by User:Syrthiss that the Beer and brewery categories should be renamed. This proposal has been supported and expanded by myself. The notion is that the regional categories should follow the format of "Beer and breweries in Africa" /Europe/Asia/North America/South America/Oceania. "Brewers and breweries" could also be renamed "Beer and breweries by region". And all the countries should also be renamed (and merged if needed) as, for example, "Beer and breweries of Germany", "Beer and breweries of Britain", "Beer and breweries of Poland". The word in each case would be beer rather than beers to allow for general articles on beer culture in each region as well as individual beers.

Consensus

I'm done with userboxes, so I have moved User:Guanaco/consensus to User:Mike McGregor (Can)/consensus. If you want me to delete it, you should hurry, because I may not be able to much longer. —Guanaco 02:37, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

Question

Seeing as the matter up for review is the deletion/undeletion of a template, isn't the question of freedom of expression wholly tangential? One can still declare their biases on their userpage without using templates. Mackensen (talk) 22:05, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Boston Tea Party

Howdy, I noticed that you and I seem to post in one or two articles dealing with progressive issues in political science/sociology. There's currently a debate beginning in Boston Tea Party as to whether the article should include the category [6]. It meets definitions set in the articles Terrorism and Definition of terrorism, however, there are several self-proclaimed patriots who watch BTP who refuse to recognise the fact. The simple criteria for terrorism generally seem to be intimidation or destruction of property in order to change public policy or public opinion while a state of war has not yet been declared. Some users would rather use recent acts of terrorism as a yardstick, rather than using a firm definition, and hence lose their ability to discuss matters calmly. Would you be able to pop in to the Talk page and join in the discussion? Thanks much, samwaltz 05:05, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Rather belated reply

Hello.

It was during my offline month that you left a message on my talk page regarding a suspected sockpuppet of SirIsaacBrock. To answer your last question first, of whether I'm a good person to address your IsaacBrock related administrative needs - well, last month I wasn't. Usually, I'm online for several hours every day, so please feel free to ask in the future. It appears the sockpuppet in question has been blocked indefinintely, so I trust that situation is adequately resolved; if not, I offer my belated assistance. -GTBacchus^(talk) 19:39, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Cool map you added to Glacial Lake Maumee et al. I found the illustration when I was starting the Lake Maumee article, but must have overlooked the fact that it came from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. May I suggest tagging it with "PD-USGov-Military-Army-USACE" template rather than the less detailed "PD-USGov?" Glad to know that someone on the other side of the big ponds is on top of this.

"Surrender of Montreal (1760)"

You seem to be a pretty reasonable guy, so I figured I'd raise the issue with you here: What possible sense does it make to have an article (let alone a Battlebox plastered with the obnoxious descriptor, "British victory") about a city surrendering without a fight? What information can you impart, which details can you elaborate, what discussion can you hold, that could possibly lift this page beyond stub status? You could probably describe, in broad terms, Lévis's military options, the British campaign plan, the situation in France, and the process of surrender—but honestly, how many paragraphs could you scrape together? What's being said here that wouldn't be more relevant over at Seven Years' War, French and Indian War, François Gaston de Lévis, Duc de Lévis, and a dozen other places? Merely advertising the surrender of Montreal, while I'm sure it appeals to the Anglo-American patriot who refuses to conceive of the Seven Years' War (and indeed the rest of modern history) as anything besides the rightful triumph of Anglo-Germanic martial prowess over the weak, effeminate, corrupt, and cowardly French people, doesn't make for a viable article. Let me know what you propose.

(PS: for years now the French and Indian War articles have been under constant attack by editors seeking to marginalize French military success while promoting and aggrandizing British victories. If my point of view seems a bit extreme it's only because I've been fighting this nonsense tooth and nail almost single-handedly.) Albrecht 03:23, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I think you're missing the point (maybe deliberately). I take no issue with the ratio of British/French victories as they stand in the historical record. Obviously, the people who go as far as to make up battles in order to alter the balance in favour of one combatant, i.e. with delightful fiction like "Battle of Montreal (1760)," are the ones with the "agenda." I notice you haven't said a word to justify the article based on its content, as requested above. Your talk of "blanking and redirecting," furthermore, is pretty disingenuous—we're talking about a stub that's never had any content beyond "Hey, guess what? Montreal surrendered, Brits kick ass." Nice red herring, but not very helpful. And asking me to stop being "disruptive" and "not constructive" is an equally interesting response considering the fact that here I am discussing the problem with you on your Talk page while not altering the article in any way. I think the plain and simple fact is the article doesn't stand on its merits. If you're somehow convinced otherwise, I'd appreciate it if you explained why instead of attacking thing's I've done in the past. Albrecht 19:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

I don't see why there shouldn't be a project on african colonialism and independence wars. If you forgive the slightly selfishness of this idea, perhaps if we both work to create a good atricle on mozambique's war of independence, then it would make a decent article to rally more support for your project idea.

African military history task force

hi there.

I just saw your post on the Military History Wiki Project about Mozambiquan War of Independence, and I wanted to get your opinion on the possibility of eventually setting up a Project Task-Force dealing with African Military history. Back in August, I suggested a task-force dealing with the declian of colonialism in Africa and African independance wars, post-colonial African civil-wars, and wars between African states. The Idea didn't go too far, but maybe we can keep it in mind for the future. Mike McGregor (Can) 00:19, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey man,

I just wanted to commend you for your work on the Canadian Battle Honours page, I think stuff like this should be recognized.

RE: antiwar protestors against Afghanistan Mission

why did you delete what I had added. I think it can be indicative of all of Canada, as it is Canada's largest city and still only mustered less than 1000 people to "protest" (more like complain). No other city had more than 1000 protestors, and the news article cited above my addition states that. So why remove it? It does represent all of Canada, unless you can cite a city that had an aberration and had many many more protestors coming out (i'm thinking a couple thousand)

--Jadger 21:32, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

but several hundred is, in context of millions of city inhabitants, just a handful. you would want to write: "this was a very large demonstration spanning the country, with protest in some cities attracting several hundred people." but I see a problem with that, one can see large as like the ones that are newsworthy were several thousand people show up, and the mob often creates a violent scene with Police. That is what is often seen as "large" I would not be adverse to "well organized" as it seems it was well organized to have it coast to coast. The poll cited in the article further backs up my point that the Canadian people in a vast majority did not support the protest. With the spread of the internet these days, one can organize a protest of that size to protest something as a joke, Rick Mercer's talking to Americans comes to mind. you also stated: "When I read your edit, it seems like a subtle yet deliberate attempt to marginalise opposition to the Afghanistan mission by contextualizing the turnout to the demonstrations in a negatively." well, those who are actively against the Afghanistan mission are on the margins of the Canadian society, and are not very well supported. So, I don't think "This was a very small protest not supported by many people" is POV, but something that puts it in context. You would not want someone writing on the PQ article because they received a couple thousand votes that the PQ had overwhelming support from the Canadian populace despite the fact they could receive less than 1% of votes, a couple thousand is overwhelming support unless contexualized in 32 million.

--Jadger 15:27, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

P.S. War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice,—is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other. --John Stuart Mill

Your current edit seems okay, but I don't think the term "peace groups" is right, would it not be more fitting to call them anti-war? because calling them "peace groups" is kind of like calling anti-abortionists prolife, you can't counter prolife because its opposition is naturally prodeath. and "peace groups" doesn't really fit as they are only protesting for Canadian withdrawal, not for the Taliban to stop murdering people, I have never heard of any "peace protesters" at Tora Bora. Also, it gives more credibility and support for the protests than actually exists.

No content in Category:Military history of Canada during World War I

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Military history of Canada during World War I, by Roger Davies, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Military history of Canada during World War I has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Military history of Canada during World War I, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. This bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Category:Military history of Canada during World War I itself.

Image:BarnstarMil4.jpg

Hi. When you uploaded Image:BarnstarMil4.jpg, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with {{GFDL-presumed}} and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually {{GFDL-self}} or {{PD-self}}. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Wikipedia:Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Battleofpburg.jpeg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use.

Invitation to Wikipedia meetup in London

Wikimedia UK logo

Date: 13:00 onwards, Sunday 10 August 2008

Venue: Penderel's Oak pub, Holborn WC1 map

More information: Wikipedia:Meetup/London 12

Hello,

I noticed that you have listed yourself as a Wikipedian in London, so I thought you might like to come to one of our monthly social meetups. The next one is going to be on Sunday 10 August, which might well be rather short notice, but if you can't come this time, we try to have one every second Sunday of the month.

If you haven't been before, these meetups are mainly casual social events for Wikipedia enthusiasts in which we chat about Wikipedia and any other topics we fancy. It's a great way to meet some very keen Wikipedians, but we'd also love for you to come along if you're interested in finding out more about Wikipedia, other Wikimedia projects, or other collaborative wiki projects too.

The location is a pub that is quite quiet and family friendly on a Sunday lunchtime, so hopefully younger Wikipedians will also feel welcome and safe. Alcohol consumption is certainly not required!

Although the meetups are popular, many UK-based editors still don't know about them. It would be great to welcome some fresh faces, so I hope you can come along.

Yours,

James F. (talk) 09:27, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
