Hello

Hi Schissel, I just wanted to give you a more personalized welcome--it's great to see someone else editing in the classical music area; there's not many of us. I like your violin sonata and cello sonata lists so far (do you plan a viola sonata list too? :-) ) Some day every piece will have its own article... sigh. Really happy to have you here. Best wishes!

My thanks and you the same! (And as an ex-violist, I can only say "sure" to that.) Still, I'm glad this is the sort of place where people edit each other - I do have a tendency to get enthusiastic about things. ;) Schissel 03:52, 5 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Good job on the War of the Romantics start! Wikipedia can be addictive, don't you think? :-) Antandrus 04:09, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Thanks thanks :) (and rather!) (Ah, I did forget something - done.) Schissel 04:13, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The Humungous Image Tagging Project

Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

BJP logo

Hi Schissel, thanks for asking about BJP logo. I should have added the info about the image to start with. I think the image is fairuse - I am not sure though. I have added more info at the logo page [1]. --Ankur 04:12, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I replied on my page :-) Fantasy 容 13:25, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for finding another of my uploads that I had done before the tags were available (or at least before I knew about them).

Actually it was being used on IBM 632, but did not get listed (apparently because of a " " instead of an "_" in the name). That is fixed now too. -- RTC 17:13, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)

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:

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:

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)

I'm in Trouble

Schissel,

I received your note on my Talk Page regarding the copyright status of B_holly.jpg. I confess that I obtained this from someplace on the internet and I know of no copyright information about this image. I also downloaded the following with no authorization. Because I find this tagging project confusing, I will leave it up to you to properly identify these or delete them. I did all of this before I was fully aware of the rules regardng copyright.

Nothing here, nothing here

(Now experimenting with my new sig, pay no mind... this logs out every few seconds to few minutes, what is going on today... hrm, need to change that to italics and have it link to my talk page. Well, I can do that. When I’m back from work!) 24.58.12.141 16:32, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

One last try... [[User:Schissel|Schissel listening bowl]] 16:45, Dec 13, 2004 (UTC)

Ok, now? [[User:Schissel|[[Schissel listening bowl]]]] 16:49, Dec 13, 2004 (UTC)
