libertarian
Hello, thanks for your informative message in the Proudhon talk page. I've been curious about the term "libertarian." Supposedly, Joseph Déjacque was the first to use the term. If it's not too much to ask, could you translate this from letter from Déjacque to Prouhdon: "Anarchiste juste-milieu, libéral et non LIBERTAIRE, vous voulez le libre échange pour le coton et la chandelle, et vous préconisez des systèmes protecteurs de l'homme contre la femme, dans la circulation des passions humaines" Is LIBERTAIRE translatable as "libertarian"? Thanks. By the way, welcome to Wikipedia. RJII 16:50, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * hello, sorry if I'm late. No you shouldn't traduce "libertaire" by "libertarian", "libertaires" (nowadays) are against restriction-free weapons, they hate free market and competition, they favour gay marriage, depenalization of drugs. In France, "libertaires" are leftists. They are liberal on social issues only. They sometimes say they dislike the state but what they always attack is capitalism. It is more a posture than a sophisticated political thinking.
 * On the other hand, "liberals" in France are criticized for being rightist and it is true that they only talk about economic freedom. Liberals refers to advocates of free-market regardless their opinion on social issues.
 * The translation you are asking for is hard and vain but I think that, with my indications, you will catch the point. Apollon 22:54, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Anticommunisme
Bonjour,

Si ça pose problème, il faudrait peut-être redéfinir ce qu'est l'"anti-communisme" dans un sens plus restrictif. En tout cas, Chirac et VGE ont toujours été des opposants au communisme. Cordialement, Wedineinheck 05:56, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 02:07, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
