User talk:Nadavspi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello Nadavspi and welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you like it here, and stick around.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

• To sign your posts (on talk pages, for example) use the '~' symbol. To insert just your name, type ~~~ (3 tildes), or, to insert your name and timestamp, use ~~~~ (4 tildes).
• Try the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the test area.
• If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk
• Follow the Wikipedia:Simplified Ruleset
• Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
• Remember Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
• Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck!

Sorry about that. My general procedure is to greet any logged-in user with a redlink to their talk page, so I occasionally get a few false positives. Best wishes, [[User:Meelar|Meelar (talk)]] 17:22, 2004 Aug 4 (UTC)

[edit] Template:Albumbox

Hi, just to let you know, the new albumbox template is still in the "testing phase", and there are still some issues to be settled. There may still be some tweaks to be made to it, so it shouldn't really be used in actual articles just yet. Soon, but not yet. - 22:33, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC) Lee (talk)

[edit] Hello

Hello, were you talking to me when you sent this message?: "Please stop adding nonsense to the Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you want to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Nadavspi 00:14, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)" If so, what was it about?

Replied on User talk:AndrewClark:

   When I spot vandalism in recent changes, after fixing it, I usually leave a message/warning on the   
   user's talk page. Since I only monitor anonymous users (meaning they're not 
   logged in), it is possible that someone else was previously using your IP address. If you know 
   you didn't vandalise any pages, you have nothing to worry about. Thanks and welcome to Wikipedia. :)

[edit] RfA nomination

Hi Nadavspi,

Just wanted to say thanks for the vote of support at RfA. It looks like I've made the cut, and I look forward to serving Wikipedia. –spencer195 17:37, 29 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Esperanto

Hi,

I got a welcome message from you. How is it going? even such messages are generated by volunteers? I am glad to see you learn esperanto. This is what I am also busy with. Though not much time for such activities and even wikipedia. Best, Peterbodo 16:37, 30 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Se vi komprenas la germanan lingvon bv. alrigardi he:שיחת משתמש:Harel#meta:Help:Interwiki linking. Mi sercxas artikolojn simalajn al tiuj menciatajn cxe fr:Discuter:Antoine de Saint-Exupery.

Cxar mi ne certas krei kategorion en he: por Islando, mi petus vin fari tion. Mi nur decxifris la artikolojn rilate hundaj rasoj. Eble vi povus enmeti kiel cxefartikolojn la artikolojn Iceland kaj Icelandic language. Antauxdankon! Ne hezitu kontakti min (ie ajn) se mi povas helpi al vi. Salutas vin Gangleri 02:33, 2004 Nov 6 (UTC)

Why cannot one talk about the Nova Help-Alfabeto? Isn't it a writing system? Maybe the text was too long, I'll rewrite it in a shorter version.

[edit] User_talk:Nadavspi/wel

Hmm... I don't know whether you see a new message at User_talk:Nadavspi/wel as a "new message!", so I figured I'd alert you here to the presence of that one there. And thanks. :-) —msh210 22:59, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Kazan

Hi! Could you (or someone else) translate (briefly) this article to Hebrew and Esperanto, if it is able for you, of corse. Note, than native spell of Kazan is Qazan, so for Hebrew article in Kazan's name Hebrew Q's equivalent should be used. Thanks. --Untifler 20:02, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Wikinews demo up and running

Hi!

I'm writing to let you know that the Wikimedia Board of Trustees has approved the first stage of the Wikinews project. There's now a fully operational English demo site at demo.wikinews.org. This will be used for experimenting with various review models and basic policies before the site is launched officially in about a week. demo.wikinews.org will become the English version later.

You voted for the Wikinews project, so I'm asking for your participation now. Everything is open, nothing is final. What Wikinews will and can be depends in large part on you. There already is a global Wikinews mailing list for discussing the project. If you are interested at all, please subscribe -- coordination is of key importance. There's also an IRC channel #wikinews on irc.freenode.net. Realtime discussion can help to polish up articles.

If you're looking for something to do, check out the articles in development and articles in review. Or start a new story in the Wikinews workspace, or ignore the proposed review system - it's up to you. I hope you'll join us soon in this exciting experiment.--Eloquence* 02:00, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

• Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
• Multi-Licensing Guide
• Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Opeth

Hi! Why did you remove the categories I added? I would like to hear a valid reason if you decide to remove them again... --Sjv27 21:25, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

OK, I see, thanks for the explanation :)--Sjv27 22:00, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Winter-een-mas

I'm sorry, but I don't understand how adding Winter-een-mas to the calendar is nonsence. Winter-een-mas as a holiday is a very real thing to many people, just because you don't celebrate doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The whole purpose of Wiki (as it seems to me) is to allow all people to spread information and I don't see why Winter-een-mas should be discluded from the calendar. - 216.58.19.59 (talk)

[edit] Carmelit

Hello Nadav,
I'm from the german wikipedia and I search photos from the Carmelit (Metro Haifa) for the Wikimedia Commons. Are you can ask a user in the hebrew wikipedia whether can load up some pictures (I can't read the hebrewa wp ;-) ). Thanks --Jcornelius15:23, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] VFD

Hey Nadav, I was wondering whether you might have an interest in voting in Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Anti-globalization and Anti-Semitism. Best, SlimVirgin ^(talk) 02:08, Apr 5, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you. Bla bla bla. Mindspillage (spill yours?) 02:25, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Nadavspi,

How did you know I made a change to the Paris Hilton page? I just found Wikipedia and wanted to do a test to see what would happen if I put something silly into a page. It was corrected in about 45 seconds.

[edit] Thanks

Nadavspi,

I found the response you put on my IP's talk page. Pretty cool. This is a great concept and I plan to look around and learn more.

[edit] California Mission Clash of Cultures

Hi Nadav,

I reverted your changes to this page as the encoding you added to replace the "quotes" comes through as gibberish-maybe a technical problem? Also took out the unneeded apostrophe in the book title (Today's-->Todays).

--Lordkinbote 01:56, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] University of Limerick

Why did you remove the + from in front of the 353? This is a well recognised "place your international dialling code here" sign, as used in mobile phones and other applications. Good catch on the spelling error though. Dowlingm 03:32, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Humanbot

I caught you not checking edits with Humanbot. "childrens'" turns into "children's'" and you didn't notice. Please check all your edits in the future. r3m0t ^talk 10:06, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)

Hi Nadavspi!

This is kinda overdue, but thank you for your support vote on my RFA. Thanks to everyone who supported me, I am now an admin, and I have been using my powers to help further Wikipedia. Thank you! Linuxbeak | Talk | Desk 23:41, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
