Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Intertranswiki
What do you think of the new project I'm setting up? Dr. Blofeld 16:20, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
- Perhaps it could be tied to meta:Translation of the week which is related. Angela. 09:26, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
That would be a good idea. Also see this new proposal by Kotniski here. Dr. Blofeld 09:46, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
he.wiki
There is a ideological censorship about porn in the Hebrew Misplaced Pages, this is the current policy: here translated to English. You cannot create an article about a porn star unless she or he became famous for something else (like Traci Lords because she is a singer/actor or Ilona Staller because she is a politician). "Character's life there is another aspect to meet the criteria of encyclopedic value. Action porn is not enough to win about Hebrew Misplaced Pages." "Not displayed pictures of her body except the portrait of the character, even if the figure wearing a Catholic nun.", "There will be no external links to sex sites." and etc.
You can talk to User:Yonatan or User:Amire80 to confirm this.
I think it's a strong violation of the global Misplaced Pages (The 💕)/Wikimedia rules and of WP:NOTCENSORED policy.
I think you should force them to change this policy.
Sorry for my bad English.
Thanks.
Copyright violation ?
Hi, I'm wondering why you've removed a paragraph from the page Penny (Australian) for the reason "removing likely copyright violation" ? How can you know that this text violates some copyright ? DeepPurple46 (talk) 18:53, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
- It had been pasted in directly from part of another page in this edit. I don't believe they copied it from Misplaced Pages but that the Misplaced Pages user copied it from them because it was only part of their page, and because it's not the usual encyclopedic style of Misplaced Pages but instead a style that matches the rest of the site it was copied from. Angela. 02:43, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for this explanation. It is sure that the style isn't the encyclopedic one, and that the added value of this paragraph was very low. DeepPurple46 (talk) 04:55, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Rename me, please!
Hi there, I don't know if it's possible, Angela; but I want you to rename me, if you don't mind. Thus: Zack wadghiri. I'll be thankful.--Zack (talk) 12:33, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, I've not seen the note above.--Zack (talk) 12:34, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
IP's editing your sandbox
The reason IP's are editing you're sandbox is probably because it is linked to from Misplaced Pages:About the Sandbox.--Emmette Hernandez Coleman (talk) 01:12, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
- Odd. I'd forgotten about that. I've removed it. I don't think my sandbox is a great example really. :) Angela. 05:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
Meetup Time in Sydney :-)
Hi all,
It's meetup time again in Sydney - hopefully you'll be able to come along for friendly chat and drinks about all things wiki - topics will no doubt include the Chapter - perhaps with planning for the upcoming AGM, the general state of wiki-play, and the traditional candle lighting to encourage the mythical flagged-revisions extension to make its way on to the wiki. At this point, I usually mention that sitting wiki arbitrators are compelled to buy everyone a drink, but one of our number has taken a rather extreme route in avoiding this duty - if you have no idea what I'm talking about then you're probably busy writing and maintaining articles - but come along anyways on the 21st October, from 18.30 til late, to find out :-) cheers, Privatemusings (talk) 21:32, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
Translators
Any chance you could contact some language schools and colleges to help practice their language skills by translating from Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Intertranswiki? For this to be a success we need numbers. Publicizing that we need translators in any language I think is an important step to make. Have you browsed French, Spanish and Italian and German wikis for instance. There are several million articles which we could benefit from having them translated into english...
