[edit] DotNetWIkiBot Framework on WikiKnowledge

I have used your framework as the basis for some articles on WikiKnowledge, see [1].

The articles are an attempt to combine source code with explanation in a vaguely literate programming style. I've made a few changes here and there to make the framework fit my own requirements and also to work with WikiKnowledge.

Thanks for making it available, it saved me a lot of work. --Kjwhitefoot 10:17, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stress marks

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that we do in fact make a point to put the stress marks in Russian words as it aids the readers. As such, I have reverted your edit to Russia. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Your point of view is contrary to the consensus. Yes, it's true that the stress mark may be confusing to some, but it is even more true that those who can read some Russian would have a lot of difficulties figuring out where the stress is. Heck, even for native speakers figuring out correct stress can often be hard (1, 2, etc., etc.). Trust me, this has been discussed many times before, by both Russians and non-Russians alike. Removal of valid information for the sake of safety of ignorant is not the path an encyclopedia should take.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:30, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Ok then. --CodeMonk 18:35, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
