Translations

[edit]

I was thinking of translating some articles, and I wonder if there are any specific details that I need to have in mind. I managed to put my thoughts into two questions, as follows;

1. Could I just translate an article from my native language (swedish) to english, or do I need to tell someone I intend to do so and get an okay, or otherwise be part of some translator-program and get pages assigned to me, rather than just pick the ones I feel like?

2. Can I translate a longer (and better) article, or parts of one, from english to swedish? I read somewhere that it usually wasn't done that way, or shouldn't be done that way, but I don't understand why. A recent example is the Starcraft-article, of which the english version is almost perfect and holds a lot more info than the Swedish article, which I then (before getting around to ask this) tried to improve and fill up without copying from the english one.

Thank you for your time. --Almgren

Wikipedia:Translation into English may be of interest. My thoughts are that it's fine to just go ahead and translate anything you like. However, it's a good idea to explain where the information came from in the edit summary, and also leave a note on the talk page explaining where the new material came from.--Commander Keane 02:40, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another inquiry on uploading images and copyrights

[edit]

I am researching information on some historic motorsports figures, their racing team, and some of their drivers. I found a website owned and operated by the son of one of the now deceased team owners and sent him an email asking for use of some of his images of their race cars and drivers on wikipedia.

"I am currently researching information on John Smith, Ralph Jones, and Smith-Jones Motorsports for articles on wikipedia.org. In case you are unfamiliar with it, Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia of sorts. I found the Smith-Jones Motorsports website and was impressed with the information and photos you have online. As part of these articles, I would like to be able to include pictures of Messers. Smith and Jones as well as some of the race cars that have been built. Would you be willing to allow use of some of the copyrighted photos that are on your website to be used on wikipedia? "

His response was, "I would be happy to provided what I have for the listings." His website has a copyright notice at the bottom.

After digging through the legalese of the wikipedia policies and the numerous policy debates, I am still not sure if these images are uploadable and useable, and if they are what tags to put on them.

Can anyone put this issue into plain english? --Dspillmann 02:25, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As explained in {{Copyrighted}}, we cannot accept copyright images, even with the owner's permission. The only way to use these motorsports images is if they have a free licence (or if they are Fair use). The website owner may not wish to release the image uder a free licence, since s/he will lose all their ownership. If you want the images, I suppose you should ask the owner to release them under a free licence (or even upload them to Wikipedia themself).--Commander Keane 02:37, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply. Sounds like bureaucratic silliness, but I understand the legal restraints a little better now too. -- Dspillmann 05:10, 24 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How do I use Wikipedia for shared groupwork functions

[edit]

I am a student at California State University San Marcos. My student team and I are working on a semester long collaborative project. I'd like to find out how to use Wikipedia to allow my group to all work on our research paper and various spread sheet matrixis as well as notes pages as helpful links. This is not necessarily something that would be worked on by the general Wikipedia community. I've read that these Wiki groups have been formed in the past and I'd like to find out the best way to set one up for my group. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, --MRWOJCIK

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia first so I am not sure that the content you listed would be appropriate for inclusion. See Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:No original research for the related policies. If what you would like is just the software that runs wikipedia (mediawiki) that is free and open-source and available here. Installation of that software would give you your own personal wiki like wikipedia that you could use for whatever purposes you wanted. You would also have much more control over the pages etc. If you were looking for a wiki that was hosted (meaning you didn't have to install the software on servers and maintain it I would try wikicities although I'm not sure based on the size you quote whether that would be within their policies. If you are generally looking for online groupwork functionality in a hosted environment here are some non-mediawiki sites that might be appropriate.

Puerperal fever

how to literally answer and resolve pending deletions

[edit]

Thank you for helping. I am having a hard time understanding directions on how to answer people who have deemed my article worth deleting and to show my side as to why it should not be deleted. I pulled up my article and saw a box saying the article is up for deletion and I clicked into that box and found all the comments. The directions said to respond, go to the "Talk" page and I clicked into the top tab that said "discussion" but it was empty. I didn't see any "Talk" page. I copied out "What Wikipedia is not" and I still think I deserve consideration. I tried clicking directly into one of the comment people, but their pages were of archived comments. How do I technically answer each commenter? The dispute box and "asking for advocacy assistance" didn't give me specific directions either to help me understand the techniques to actualy ask an advocate a question, and I could find no advocate that would have understood the sensitivity of my article. So I have 3 questions: 1) in that what I wrote about is permitted in other similar circumstances, 2) the comments were by all men (I beleive) and some of the comments were extremely rude by my standards, and 3) the advocates I tried to find were also all men whose comments in their other advocacies I feel would not be sensitive in understanding my article, which is an article about a Christian woman. The only good concensus was that the article was well-written. I am not a technical person and need help!

Talk page?

[edit]

I searched for 'Variable Compression Engine' and found a page that asked for information on the subject. I folled the instructions but it ended up on the 'Talk Page'. How does the entry get moved to the subject page? Should I do it or wait for a response on the 'Talk Page'?

The problem is some confusion about the template asking for expansion. Based on the wording of the template the person adding it might write on the talk page why they wanted it expanded etc. People often don't do this because why they want an article expanded is often obvious :D Anyway, you don't need to wait to move articles from the talk page to the main page, and you could have edited the main page originally. I moved the content to the main page now and did some minor changes. Thanks for adding that information though! - cohesiontalk 20:03, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

" EDIT" in the Margin/ Archiving

[edit]

1.In a long scroll of Talk, how do I get "EDIT" in the margin?

2,How do I archive an overlong Talk page?


1. the section edit buttons will appear if someone makes a section break, this page for example has a lot of section breaks so if you see edits on each of these new questions you have the option turned on. If you don't you can turn it on in your preferences, go to editing, then enable section editing. If there is a section that is very long though it still won't have edit links.
2. see Wikipedia:How to archive a talk page although the short answer is most people just copy the text into a new sub-page - cohesiontalk 05:35, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Page Moves

Hi, I have just come across this page which is obviously meant to be someones user page rather than in the article namespace. Is there any policy I have to follow to get it moved/merged? Grandwazir 10:16, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you mean this page, as in this page that we are using right now, it's not a user page, it's a page where newcomers to wikipedia can find help. If you are using this in a more general way, please link the page so that we can check it out and see what's going on. Looking at your edit history it might be 2Js: seeks info (single, married, divorced, re-married) which you proposed for deletion. If that is the page you're talking about you handled it correctly. Feel free to read WP:CSD for articles that can be speedy deleted as well. I think proposed deletion is fine for that article but here is some background just to be informative :) The proposed deletion mechanism you used is in a trial run, and should be used for things that don't fall under WP:CSD and that are non-controversial (they should go to WP:AFD.

[edit]

What a great place. I just created an account. Did quite a bit of reading, but don't understand in simple terms if my problem is solved here.

I'm creating my first web site in XHTML and am writing a family photojournal as my learning tool. It has tons of photos that I prefer to protect with copyright on the web site. We may SOMEDAY (no time soon) use the site commercially to sell bonsais and arts & crafts products.

(1) Does not our copyright exlamation at the bottom of the site protect the images even though there are no tags? Do PhotoShop watermarks carry any weight?

(2) Is it possible to use articles verbatim about bonsai from Wikipedia and create a copyright that explains that the use of text is GNU-free-licensed, but the graphics, indeed, remain copyrighted solely to us on our web site if we follow the example page that references GNU and Wikipedia? Thanks for the help.

Wikipedia:Categories for deletion results question

[edit]

Wikipedia:Categories for deletion:

I have currently placed a proposal on Wikipedia:Categories for deletion for a catagory merge. It was posted on Feb. 21. So far two people have replied, one who votes for a reverse merge and one for a merge. The person who voted for the merge even replied it was that user's own fault for creating duplicate catagory in the first place. My question is: When will my discussion turn into a blue box like the rest and the proper merge/deletion of the catagories take place? Do I have to turn the discussion into a blue box and decide the final outcome? Or does an admin take care of everything for me? After how long is a result made? Is their a minimum number of votes needs on any certain side? Thank you for your help. Bobo is soft 03:38, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Can't login today

[edit]

Yesterday I created my account using username "gvasquez", but now I can't login. I've pressed the "e-mail my password" button, but still have received no password at all. What could be wrong? Yesterday everything was OK, I even uploaded a photo to the Albatross page, and this morning somehow (cookies perhaps) the site remembered me, and "told me" that I had a new talk available, I answered it and then when I opened a new browser window I couldn't login.

Have you tried closing and reopening your browser (all the way, not just the current browser window)? Also, when you say you "can't log in", do you mean your password is not recognised, or a different problem? If you told Wikipedia to e-mail you your password, be patient - that can sometimes take an hour or two if traffic is very heavy. Are you sure you input the right e-mail address when you created an account? — QuantumEleven | (talk) 15:35, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merging and categories

[edit]

I have read the merge process guidelines and last night I put merge tags on a pair of pages, so now I am waiting to see if there are any objections. Assuming, there are no objections, it doesn't say what to do about category tags on the mergefrom page, that ends up as a redirect. Do I remove these? Viv Hamilton 10:14, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if there is an official policy on this, but the common-sense action would be to remove them from the mergefrom page and place them (assuming there are no duplicates or redundancies) on the mergeto page. I'm not even sure that catergories work properly on redirect pages - it would be a daft implementation if they did. — QuantumEleven | (talk) 11:15, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the response. I wasn't sure if there was some form of synonyms template, that worked with category listings and showed terms that were redirected to what was in the category list.

No phonetic search; however you might want to use Google's site search. Google often suggests alternate spellings. Alternatively, you could try searching for different spellings until you find the article you want, or go to a related subject and see if there is a link from that article. KillerChihuahua?!? 17:54, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Often using only the terms you do know is helpful. For example if you are looking for some remote pacific island and you can't remember the spelling, try searching for "pacific island" instead. - cohesiontalk 17:56, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Try wiktionary for definitions. Or, if you mean a WP arbitrator, WP:RFAR is as good a place to familiarize yourself with arbcom as any. KillerChihuahua?!? 18:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bullriding

[edit]

how do bullride?

Have a look at the bull riding article. In future, the best fastest method of finding such info is to use the search box on the left handside of the page. - Akamad 23:26, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
