Turin
Of course, thank you for fixing. Probably I had got some headache more than usual. I'm sorry for making you waste time. As an oddity, consider also that I like Milanese classical ortography... Maybe we could add an audio sample. Bye.--Clamengh 17:29, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Audio
Hi, I have an idea about how to deal with audio samples. Now I am busy at Lombard wikipedia, but, from September on, I would like to start a heavier interwiki action. In the meanwhile you could take, if you like, a look at Ogg Vorbis and follow the links. or, if you prefer, take a look at this: pms:Agiut:Coma_travaj%C3%A9_con_le_registrassion_son%C3%B2re.Cjau, Claudi--81.208.106.71 19:03, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

audio Turin/Milan
Hi, I have succesfully added an audio sample to Milan page. I show here the apropriate code (at short term, I will remove the graphical accent on á, no longer needed):
 * Milan (Italian: Milano; Milanese: Milán [[Media:Milan.ogg|(listen)]]) is the main city of northern Italy, and is located in the plains of Lombardy...

If you are able to make up a file with Turin's audio (.wav or .mp3) I could convert it into the .ogg format. You can e-mail me (starting from my user page, and clicking on 'e-mail this user') and I will reply to you, so we will know our e-mails each other. (I prefer not ro write it in a public page like this, I hope you understand). Or, we could do the converse, if you prefer. Once this has been done, we will be able to exchange attachments. Cheers, Claudi --Clamengh 13:56, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia Stories Project
Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.

Thank you for your time,

Victor Grigas

Proposed deletion of Homeoptoton


The article Homeoptoton has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * The articles has been lacking a source for a long time, and I could not find a source on Google Books.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
