[edit] Welcome to the Military history WikiProject!
Hi, and welcome to the Military history WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.
A few features that you might find helpful:
- Our navigation box points to most of the useful pages within the project.
- The announcement and open task box is updated very frequently. You can watchlist it if you're interested; or, you can add it directly to your user page by including {{WPMILHIST Announcements}} there.
- Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
- The project has several departments, which handle article quality assessment, detailed article and content review, and project-wide collaboration.
- We have a number of task forces that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
- We've developed a variety of guidelines for article structure and content, template use, categorization, and other issues that you may find useful.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask one of the project coordinators, or any experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Kirill Lokshin 22:30, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:RN Submarines Since 1960.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:RN Submarines Since 1960.JPG. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] User page redirect
I recently came across the following guidance on Wikipedia:User page:
- If you would prefer not to have a user page, then it is recommended that you redirect it to your user talk page for the convenience of other editors.
Since it appears that you do not wish to maintain a User Page, I have taken the liberty of placing such a redirect on your own User Page. Please accept my apologies if this does not reflect your intentions. Regards, John Moore 309 13:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Dnipropetrovsk
Hi, could you please restate your question. Sorry, I did not get it. To give you a general answer, I put all my preferences aside and, in accordance with WP:NC(UE) I use the most commonly used English name for the Ukrainian locations. The most objective way to determine the most common modern English usage is to analyze the usage of major players of the anglophone media market. I happen to have an access to LexisNexis which allows to analyze and compare different usage. As of now, the prevailing usages are Kiev and Dnipropetrovsk as far as these two cities are concerned. Please check here for a long and detailed discussion of the issue. --Irpen 05:37, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
