Liszt
Thanks for your attempts at mediation in the war over Liszt's nationality. Unfortunately I think by now it's beyond hope of salvage by reasonable compromises, but thanks anyway. :) K. Lásztocska 19:42, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * You're probably right (it's a pity that the anonymous scholar spoil his knowledge by his stubborness). Anyway I'm very glad that your very interesting argument has developed such interesting things over Liszt's nationality (I will partially put them in the french version of the article). Alexander Doria 19:55, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

merci


Monsieur Doria, I can only say köszönöm nagyon szépen for your clear-headed, open-minded, intelligent and friendly contributions to the war over Liszt's nationality. Arguing with A.S. has been very unpleasant and frustrating for me and I am very relieved and grateful that peace has been achieved--all thanks to you, our dear French philosopher-diplomat. :) K.

The_100
Hi, I share your scepticism regarding The_100, and made a few edits. Gimmemoretime (talk) 23:44, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Your comments on the SOPA poll
You wrote, "but I do not think this law would harm any of our five pilars. In fact, it would only cause a reinforcement of the third pillar". But I don't agree. In my comments on the poll I point out that SOPA harms the five pilars in several ways: Our encyclopedic mission is fulfilled, in part, by verifiability and no-original-research but these rules are only workable when the material we would cite is not censored elsewhere. Likewise, the exact force you suggest would enforce the third pillar would mean destruction of the second: It would create a substantial tension where the neutral and factual presentation of political unpopular information could get the whole site taken down without legal due process, creating tension between NPOV and being able to reach our readers. As far as the third pillar goes: We already have a very strong commitment to free content, easily the strongest of any online community (except perhaps the free software folks) but part of the reason we are able to have such a strong policy is because there are other places to host questionable things. If these places are shut down by SOPA then there will be substantial pressure to put them in Wikipedia and the community that cares about freedom will be easily outnumbered by people who care only about what we can get away with today.

I hope these thoughts add usefully to your consideration of the issue, and I'm interested in hearing if you have any thoughts in return. --Gmaxwell (talk) 03:22, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Jurors and promotion for WikiScienceCompetition 2017
Hi, sorry to bother you. I see from this query that you are wikimedian working in the academia.

I am helping to organize the Wiki Science Competition 2017. You are Frenc and you would represent one country without national jury. Would you like to join as a juror? In principle, it is a position as second-level juror.

But we can keep your name for next time, with pleasure! Or we hope that new national commitees can be created.

We start in few weeks, but international jurors work later, from January 2018.

In any case I hope you can spread the news in your working environment. Let me know.--Alexmar983 (talk) 09:34, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Hey there, in Special:diff/1184584226 at Scientific integrity you wrote: "into two categories: mapping of the definitions and categories", which is missing the name of the second category there (in the live version also).
