[edit] Image Tagging Image:Cdgval.png
 |
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Cdgval.png. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. Sherool (talk) 14:28, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re: Ishikawa
Hi - I replied on my talk page (added a <span> tag) and thought maybe you might be able to see if it helps on a non-Safari browser, but looking at your user page it seems you also contribute using a Mac (small world, huh?). I just checked IE on a Windows machine, and the change works on this combination as well so I think we're good. BTW - thanks for the prompt to do this. I noticed this when I originally set up the template and (at the time) didn't come up with a reasonable solution. I think support for <span> has been added in the interim, so it's fixable now. -- Rick Block (talk) 16:24, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- Aichi Prefecture and Akita Prefecture look fine to me (on two lines). The way it should work is it all fits on one line, and if not, then the Japanese name and transliteration appear together following a line break. Is this not what you're seeing? In my browser, Tokyo (for example) fits on one line with no line break. -- Rick Block (talk) 18:29, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Kaisha vs. gaisha
Please do not change any instances of "kaisha" to "gaisha" as they are the same thing and the pronunciation largely depends on where in Japan you live. If you have any questions, please see Kabushiki kaisha. Thanks! (^_^) --日本穣 Nihonjoe 00:02, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nihongo template
Thanks for all your work on putting this template to good use. In order to allow people to find the style guidelines that refer to its use, please put "per [[WP:MOS-JA]]" (without the quotes) in the edit summary. Again, thanks for your great work on this. It's definitely appreciated. (^_^) --日本穣 Nihonjoe 22:05, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Japan
Seeing as you're already doing a lot for Japan-related articles, I thought I'd extend the invitation to join WikiProject Japan. There's a good little group of us already, and I think you'd fit right into the flow. You can join by visiting the Participants page. (^_^) --日本穣 Nihonjoe 23:40, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Munemitsu Mutsu
Can you give me the link about surname coming first for historical figures before Meiji era? I don't know anything about it, I just assumed since other articles listed the surname last, that it was the convention (Western convention). Otherwise it really is confusing for people to guess which is the surname. East Asian convention has always been surname first. Even in Japan they tell people that family name comes before the given name. — Nrtm81 08:30, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Ah, I see. Thanks. OK, I'll moved the page back, also the Miura Gorō page. By the way, can you add mention about the naming convention at Help:Japanese so that people who click on the question mark will understand the naming convention format? Thanks — Nrtm81 08:58, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- I've just changed Help:Japanese to reflect the name convention. Now I come across mention about Utada Hikaru defying the convention because her fans reject conformation :-) — Nrtm81 00:04, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] :fr:Catégorie:Ligne à grande vitesse
Hi... I'm trying to help out with Wikipedia:Translation_into_English/French and the above mentioned articles seem to have been undertaken by you, but there hasn't been a status report since February. I was wondering if you could update the status, move it to completed (or loose ends) or at least let people know where they should start if they want to finish the task. Thanks! --Storkk 23:40, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Turnham Green tube station
Thanks for your comments on my recent edit to Turnham Green - the history couldn't be much more complicated. I have already edited all the articles from Uxbridge and Heathrow down to Turnham Green and am working my way into town. I'm currently revising the opening history on the Metropolitan District Railway article and will be doing the stations to Hammersmith shortly. DavidCane 11:56, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
