Traffic light

We don't have any articles on "tram traffic lights" in Misplaced Pages, and it is bad form to put in a link to an article on a different subject on a Misplaced Pages of another language. Please translate the target article on the other language's Misplaced Pages into English, and link to that instead. --  Denelson83  21:03, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Requested move

Re: Category:Railway engine sheds → Category:Railway depots. The category Category:Rolling stock depots is absent, the subcategory Category:Railway depots in the United Kingdom isnt divided to either the engine (locomotive) depots and the rolling stock depots. --ŠJů (talk) 01:12, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

You added the above request at Misplaced Pages:Requested moves, but things in the category namespace can't be moved like normal articles. The venue for moving categories is Misplaced Pages:Categories for discussion. Please relist your request there if you wish. Happy editing! Dekimasuよ! 03:20, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Thank You. --ŠJů (talk) 15:42, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Repost of Category:Fictional children

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Fictional children, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Fictional children was previously deleted as a result of an articles for deletion (or another XfD)

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Fictional children, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Ahoj. Díky moc za upozornění, úplně jsem zapomněl, že to tam mám. Už jsem to spravil. - Darwinek (talk) 11:42, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

DFC

Trawling for articles with DFC as an acronym and then placing them on that acronym's page does not make them valid. If these articles or events are unknown by the acronym, they should not be used. FruitMonkey (talk) 17:49, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

My experience is that I first found the abbreviation DFC (which should mean some music festival) and consequently i searched its meaing in Misplaced Pages. Hereat I found by Google that the abbrevation DFC is also used for the Dubai Festival City. Both abbreviations are in use evidently and it is purposeful to mention them in the disambiguation page just as all other meanings. --ŠJů (talk) 19:09, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

See for example http://www.uaepropertytrends.com/ptrends/mvnforum/viewthread?thread=1163, http://www.zawya.com/cm/profile.cfm/cid1000336, http://www.dbchoir.info/DFC%202009/DFC%202009%20-%20Booking%20Form.pdf etc. --ŠJů (talk) 19:17, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Then please put them into the articles, as there is no reference to this information on the pages. Thanks FruitMonkey (talk) 19:19, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Such abbrevations are quite expectable and self-evident. It's no usual to prove by references every common abbrevation. Even articles about mentioned footbal clubs don't contain such explicit reference. I don't understand why you need to see just these two subjects as problematic. --ŠJů (talk) 19:30, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

The Ephebophilia article

The discussion was moved to Talk:Ephebophilia#Various term meanings. --ŠJů (talk) 06:01, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Nomination of Air ticket for deletion

The article Air ticket is being discussed concerning whether it is suitable for inclusion as an article according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Air ticket until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. ttonyb (talk) 04:08, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

I was created a redirict, not the article. --ŠJů (talk) 16:06, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 9

Hi. When you recently edited Motorail, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Split (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The Mysterious Castle in the Carpathians - your citation needed tag

You indicated that the English movie name should be verified, while the article already links to an IMDB page, which, as those usually do, lists AKA names - and the English name is, in fact, one of them! What shall we do? Gryllida 04:31, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry but I was not able to find the English title at the only source page – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083162 If the information is only at the linked subpage, I think, the subpage can be directly linked. Btw, the UK title is more exactly translated than the USA title - is there some evidence (other source) that the stated USA title was really used? All language versions use the substantive word (tajemství, the secret, das Geheimnis, mistero, várkastély) only the USA version use adjective word (mysterious). Adjective form is used in the Czech title of the Verne's novel. --ŠJů (talk) 11:56, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Letadlo Spojených arabských emirátů.jpg

Hi. I'm an assistant language teacher in Japan. Over the past seven months I've been making a visual novel type game to help my students with English. To aid this, I have used one of your pictures that you have kindly made available under a Creative Commons licence (http://commons.wikimedia.org/File:Letadlo_Spojen%C3%BDch_arabsk%C3%BDch_emir%C3%A1t%C5%AF.jpg). I just wanted to thank you personally for making the resource available. If you want to play the game, though please bear in mind a lot of it is in Japanese, it can be downloaded online (I won't put the link up as it might count as spam, but let me know if you want it and I'll pop it up). Thank you very much — Preceding unsigned comment added by Watashinotabi (talk • contribs) 00:48, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Problem with table template on cs.wiki

Hello ŠJů. Thank you for testing VisualEditor on cs.wiki. I was looking at your problem, and it seems the table text is editable through the "template editor" - the puzzle piece icon that appears at the top right of the template when you put your mouse over it. It then lists the parameters, in each, the text can be altered. Does this answer your question? It is this way with table templates in VE. Improvements to how VE handles tables are coming. Please let me know about any other problems you are having with VE on cs.wiki, and, if you have time, there is still some Czech translation work to be done at VE TranslationCentral. PEarley (WMF) (talk) 18:06, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

Czech help needed

Hello ŠJů, I'm contacting you because we need some Czech translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on cs.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Czech Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 23:52, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Dudemanfellabra

You've probably noticed that Dudemanfellabra hasn't been around lately, so your questions about the Commons script went unanswered. I just contacted him offline, and he said that he plans to be back once things calm down in real life. He also asked me to mention this to you. Nyttend (talk) 03:36, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi, thank you and him. I supposed he choose a better way how to spend this summer :-) His script works perfectly, only small "cosmetic" corrections remain to be solved. There's no hurry. --ŠJů (talk) 04:02, 4 September 2014 (UTC)

I found a little time today to implement some of the changes you requested and will work on the rest. I have responded to each inquiry at User talk:Dudemanfellabra/AddCommonsCatLinks. Sorry for the long wait!--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 17:25, 27 September 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Disambiguation link notification for August 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Segway PT, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Podolí (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

September 2016

Your recent editing history at Bohemia shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
