Special:Version
In one wiki i try to run (www sarkotube com), I don't understand why the Special:Version is empty, and find no explication on that. But I find you contribute a lot to this special page. So I apologise to disturb you with such question...but if you can help me...I enjoy. Best regards. --Eric Larcher 17:09, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: MediaWiki editing window extension - buttons
Don't mean to bother you but I have looked around for a while for the answer to this question and I can't find it. Wondering if you might be able to help: I use the MediaWiki software on my school network for collaborative research projects with students and it works perfectly. However, I cannot find the extension that adds the extra ten editing shortcut buttons that appear to the right of the "horizontal line" button. These are visible in Wikipedia's edit window. Is there an extension for that or was this a custom coded bit of php added to Wikipedia...? Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!  κaτa ʟ aveno TC 14:30, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Hello,

I'm a user of an oen of your extension (Page CSS). I would say that is a great extension... But I have a problem I hope some help. But I prefer that you explain me in the extension page because It'll maybe help some user later. here. And I would say too, that if you a translator for your futur extension I can do it.(in french).Thanks.

Your sincerely, Add. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.66.151.63 (talk) 23:33, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mac OS X Box.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:Mac OS X Box.jpeg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

Icelandic pronunciation check (Eyjafjallajökull)
Hello, Ævar. I saw that you made a few comments at Talk:Eyjafjallajökull about the Icelandic language and pronunciation. I thought you might be a native speaker of Icelandic and would like to ask your help. Several people have requested a more clearly enunciated recording of the name of the volcano; would you mind reviewing this audio recording for its acceptability as a pronunciation example for this article? If you would prefer to make your own recording, that would also be great. Thanks! —Ka-Ping Yee (talk) 17:29, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
