[edit] Fireworks kaboom
Hello! Thanks for the "news" about the fireworks explosion, but it is probably not something we should keep in a city article, it's not that important in the long run. And... see my comments on it. I hope I did not distract you from future writing! I do not mean to. --grin ✎ 23:02, 2004 Aug 7 (UTC)

[edit] Image tag
Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:
- Image:EZPA.jpg
I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status?
You can use {{gfdl}} if you wish to release your own work under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{PD-self}} if you wish to release your own work to the public domain, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use of someone else's work, and so on. Click here for a list of the various tags.
If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the image from, and I'll tag it for you. Thanks so much. Denni☯ 03:47, 2004 Dec 16 (UTC)

[edit] German Visa Affair 2005
Hi Marc,
I notice that there's a lot of untranslated German material in this article - are you translating it? -- ChrisO 23:28, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Similarly, I'm noticing that, well, no offense, but your English needs some work. If you want to drop a note on my talk page when you're all done with the preliminary translation, I'll go through and copyedit and tidy things up. --John Owens (talk) 23:51, 2005 Mar 19 (UTC)
I'm now ready with translation. There are a lot of difficulties because some words are not available in the English language, so I had to do "word-to-word translation". It was really difficult to translate.
Hi Marc, I think the article really isn't neutral. At least you should clarify who said what -- the press statements of CDU/CSU discuss the visa "affair" (I don't think even this title is correct) in a totally different light than the press statements of The Greens. Maybe a good idea would be to write the article in the German Wikipedia first, then waiting until a consensus forms there about it's contents, and only translating it after that? -- till we ☼☽ | Talk 13:32, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
"Tillwe" I witnessed that you are a pro-Green and SPD-supporter because you have worked on many articles about the Greens / SPD. That means the statement above is biased.

[edit] Request for Comments on Current events
Hello Marcschulz –
I'm trying to get some discussion going on two proposals regarding the current events page, but so far have gotten little to no response. Since you have recently edited the current events page, I'm asking for your input on these two proposals:
- One proposal (this is the big one) involves putting the daily events from the current events pages into article-templates, a lá the monthly pages from 2003 to 2005, as well and having a consistent number of recent days on the current events page instead of a monthly archive. This would allow for the current events page and the respective month pages to be updated simultaneously without the monthly archival. For more, see the current events talk page.
- Another proposal involves merging the content of the regional current events pages (such as British and Irish current events and Canadian current events) into fewer continental articles. For more, see the current events WikiProject talk page.
Your input on one or both of these issues would be appreciated. joturner 22:16, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:WWM.gif)
![]() |

Thanks for uploading Image:WWM.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. meco 19:23, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
