Admin coaching
As it's been a while since you signed up for admin coaching, I am just checking that you still wish to receive it. If so just add you name to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box, and you'll be assigned a couple of coaches as soon as they become available. Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 10:36, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * As there area couple of free coaches I've assigned you Prodego and Mysekurity as your coaches for when you get back. Exactly what form the admin coaching takes is up to you and the coaches to decide, but a general piece of advice I give is to set up a user subpage (for example User:Asterion/Admin coaching) to keep coaching discussion together. That prevents things getting split up over three talk pages, which can get confusing! Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 17:35, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hello Asterion, as you know from above I will be one of your coaches. I just wanted to drop by and warn you my ability to edit for the next few weeks will be unpredictable, so I can't be sure how active I will be. However I will do my best to be there, Prodego  talk  17:55, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey Asterion, I am your co-coach (the other being the very friendly Prodego, above, as you can probably tell), and am very happy to meet you. Unfortunately, I my editing will also be quite spotty in the coming weeks (from now until about Thanksgiving). I appologize if this is of any inconvenience to you, and will try my damndest to stay up to date on all things Wikipedia (an e-mail will always get to me, however). Keep it amazing, and let me know if you have any questions, Mysekurity  02:20, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Sevilla, la grande
¡Hola, Asterion! Bien, bien... Te doy una lista, a bote pronto, de magníficos edificios sevillanos pésimamente representados en Commons que se pueden fotografiar. La lista, por supuesto, es extensiva, para otras ocasiones, así que ¡no te asustes!


 * Ayuntamiento: fotografías de la fachada a la plaza de San Francisco, especialmente de la parte izquierda, donde se percibe la decoración plateresca.
 * Iglesia de San Luis, (calle San Luis). Magnífico barroco sevillano.
 * Palacio de San Telmo, o Arzobispal, plaza Virgen de los Reyes. Otro barrocazo, sobre todo la portada.
 * Iglesia de Santa María la Blanca, antigua sinagoga, interesantísimo interior.
 * Iglesia de San Marcos, (plaza de San Marcos), Mudéjar. (Interesante torre)
 * Casa de Pilatos. Inexistenete en Wikipedia, salvo por una foto de la puerta de acceso. Supongo que porque la única forma de acceso es pagando entrada.
 * Casa de las Dueñas (sobre todo el interior, pero me temo que no se pueda visitar). (Estos dos últimos palacios puedo fotografiarlos yo sin pagar, pero no sé cuando caeré por ahí, pueden pasar meses o hasta un año...)
 * Iglesia del Salvador (plaza del Salvador) Sobre todo interior. Es barroca, pero antes fue mezquita, de la que conserva restos (casi arqueológicos) en el patio. La última vez que fui estaba toda la calle levantada, y no sé si la iglesia en restauración, pero si pasas por ahí, échale un vistazo.

P.D. La Giralda, la Catedral, el Archivo de Indias y los Reales Alcázares ya están dignamente representados en Commons, y no merece la pena que te acerques si no es para disfrutar de su belleza.

Sólo me queda agradecerte el ofrecimiento (una sola foto será bienvenida) y mostrarte mi más sincera envidia por estar ahí. :-) --Garcilaso 11:54, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Hola Garcilaso, me parece que El Salvador sigue en obras, por lo menos lo estaba hace poco más de un mes. Hoy la verdad es que no lo puedo llamar un día muy productivo... Me lié intentado llegar a Baelo Claudia, en Bolonia y acabé bastante perdido una vez pasar Vejer de la frontera. Bueno, haber que puedo hacer mañana por Sevilla. Ya te contaré como me va cuando vuelva a Inglaterra. Un saludo, E    Asterion  u talking to me?
 * ¡Magníficas noticias sevillanas! Lo de las iglesias cerradas y demás vicisitudes son cosas del destino...Yo, que he frecuentado más Granada que Sevilla, he sufrido SIEMPRE eso. Si está en restauración es lógico que un edificio cierre. Pero cada vez que he enseñado la ciudad a un familiar o amigo me encuentro con que, aproximadamente la mitad de los edificios granadinos están cerrados, simplemente, por dejadez. En fin, puede ser una estrategia del ayuntamiento para que los interesados vuelvan una y otra vez...:-)

Estoy deseando ver ese reportaje... Un saludo, --Garcilaso 14:19, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Casa de la Contratacion?
We appear to have been editing the Casa de la Contratacion pages at the same time.

My understanding is that the Casa was not a building, but was a committee which met predominantly in the Alcazares. I believe that the building which you have labelled as "Casa de la Contratacion" (now the Archive of the Indies) was originally built as a covered market and had no initial connection with La Casa?

cf. http://www.turismo.sevilla.org/paginas_en/patrimoniomonumentalficha.asp?idpatrimonio=99

Best Wishes User:littlerussell


 * To be honest, I'm not very familiar with the history of La Casa (too bad as I was born in Seville) but a friend of a friend works at the Archive of the Indies as a researcher. I think you could be right and that the Archive is merely the place where the old papers from the Casa are being kept (So maybe the picture should say Archive of the Indies building, where the Casa de Contratacion historic papers are kept). I know for a fact that the Casa was moved to Cadiz at some stage because the Guadalquivir became almost unnavigable. E    Asterion  u talking to me? 22:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

My theory about Gibraltarian
I think he probably has too much time on his hands - I wouldn't be surprised if he continues to do this 5 years from now. I also believe he is suffering from MPOV and that he lacks adequate understanding of WP:V (he claims that his editions represent "the truth") and WP:AGF (he tends to get into flame wars with pretty much everyone who tries to interact with him - not just Ecemaml). Scobell302 18:29, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

PS - I also think his behavior is pretty similar to that of Jon-Erik Beckjord.

Hasekura Tsunenaga
Thank you for your upload of the Seville Japanese letter on the Hasekura Tsunenaga page! PHG 00:51, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem. It's "fresh from the camera". I took it this afternoon. If you know a better way to reformat the pictures layout, that would be great as currently it looks kind of messy. Regards, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 00:53, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Piccies
Hi! Well, perhaps it could be better, but it's most important that you had a great time (I hope!) Don't worry about the Horizon - I don't know whether you have noticed, but we had got a permission from Mr. Stedehouder of the Dutch Garage de'l Est to use all of the car pics from his site, which includes this huge archive. You can find a rather good pic of the Horizon there, and a host of other vehicles (no Spanish cars, though :.

As concerns the Ronda, I am afraid most of the sources are probably in Spanish too :( - but I will see about that when I am done with the Fiat 130. Somebody "expanded" it with lotsa POV and I now want to clean it up (I had it on my "due" list anyway) so that I could nominate it for DYK :D But first I have to convince the darn Wayback Machine to work again...

What kind of work do you have that you can do photoediting stuff while "on duty"? ;) When you're finished with the Seville photos, you might consider helping me upload all the goodies from the garage de'l Est to the Commons and insert them to their respective articles :D I also have to figure out where to get a nice Fiat 130 photo from... I have also dumped a lot of stuff to the Chrysler 180 article, but I guess I turned it into a pile of rubbish... Bravada, talk - 21:26, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi! I was just wondering whether you have had some time to think about the Chrysler 180 thing - does it pop out sometimes when you press the "random" button? :D Cheers, Bravada, talk - 14:03, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Me abusing my awesome power
I've been keeping an eye on it, actually (and am currently trying to decide whether it's worth responding to), but thanks for the heads-up! --InShaneee 22:42, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah...I tend to find out about this type of thing far too late for my taste. Again, thank you. --InShaneee 22:46, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

History of Gibraltar
Hola Asterion, no sé si hemos coincidido en esta wikipedia alguna vez. Soy ecemaml, administrador en es: y en el pasado un activo contribuidor al artículo History of Gibraltar. Conseguí el bloqueo de User:Gibraltarian (bueno, más bien se bloqueó el solito) y posteriormente no volví al asunto (bastantes tareas tengo ya en es:). Pasé ayer por el artículo y vi que alguno de los sockpuppets de Gibraltarian ha introducido algunos sutiles POVs (planteando el punto de vista británico como si fuese la verdad) y eliminando algunos datos con su correspondiente fuente (hasta a la Biblioteca Nacional me fui para conseguir fuentes). Estoy pensando en restaurar los puntos borrados y neutralizar los puntos de vista británicos (identificándolos como tales), pero no tengo ganas de que haya otra eterna e improductiva guerra de ediciones. ¿Alguna idea? Muchas gracias y un saludo --Ecemaml 12:36, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


 * He localizado la edición. Efectivamente fue de Gibraltarian, así que he restaurado y ya está. Como podrás ver, todas las afirmaciones tienen su fuente, así que no son una invención. Un saludo --Ecemaml 13:23, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the warm and encouraging welcome
Wanted to let you know that anyway, so have ventured to ask these questions of you here, as I think invited to do in your welcome.

Question #1: I am using images obtained from http://www.demis.nl/wms/mapclip.htm, but cannot seem to "tag" Template:PD-Demis (i.e., ): I just get a message that the template doesn't exist yet on a page designed to create it. I've copied over the text on the PD-Demis template to my image description, but I of course would like to do it properly and find out what I'm doing wrong.

Question #2: I've made some minor changes (to the 'original' on my computer) to an image after uploading it, and wanted to replace the 'old' image previously uploaded to the Wikipedia site to this new version, but am just told that the image already exists, and to give the image I'm trying to upload a different name. I've read some perhaps old information that I'd be given the option to replace the current image of the same name, or give new a name, but that no longer seems to be the case. If so, what would be the current procedure to change an uploaded image? Thanks for any help with the above. Jauntymcd 17:57, 29 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Rather than going back and forth between our talk pages, I've added some additional info and a question re: the pd-demis thing to your edit of my user talk page. I hope this works for you.  I don't know if you have a way of watching a particular 'edit' section of a talk page, so I thought I'd communicate what I've done to you here.  If there's a way of flagging something for your attention at its location, and this is something you'd like, please let me know. I think in the future I'll post questions on my talk page to keep everything in one place, and use the 'help' flag for answers from experienced users/admin'ers generally, also with the purpose of not monopolizing your time particularly. But thanks in advance for your continued help on this particular question.Jauntymcd 19:40, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Guadalajara(s)
Gracias por el apoyo ofrecido. De hecho, según una revisión de la historia del asunto, hasta hace poco Guadalajara sí era un rd a la ciudad mexicana. Lo cambió el mismo anon y (dicho sea de paso) dejó un soberano desorden en los "what links here". Sin embargo, a mí me gustan las páginas de disambig: de ahí mi "neutral" en Valencia. Esas decisiones de "primary use", "clearly what most ppl will most probably be looking for", etc. irremediablemente reflejan algún punto de vista; aquí, un PdV que favorece lo angloamericano y lo europeo. La verdad, prefiero tener Guadalajara como página dab, pero --eso sí-- en orden alfabético o, como Boston (disambiguation), con alguna indicación de su importancia relativa. Vaya, mover Guadalajara, Jalisco, a Guadalajara sólo provocaría otras peleas estériles con los siguientes anons que lleguen: entonces, ¿para qué? Un saludo, Bolivian Unicyclist 21:45, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Tiene muchísima razón. Respecto a las páginas de disambig, yo también comparto esa idea generalmente. Por ejemplo, Lincoln podría perfectamente desembocar en Abraham Lincoln pero el hecho de que da a una página dab le da mayor valor enciclopédico (el lector tiene la oportunidad de aumentar su conocimiento, por ejemplo enterándose del origen etimológico del término). Respecto a Valencia, casi prefiero que se quede como un dab. Mi única preocupación es que llamar a Valencia (city), porque Valencia, Valencia no suena muy bien y si se elige el nombre de la región en vez del de la provincia (Valencia, Land of Valencia o Valencia, Valencian Community o Valencia, Valencian Country), es casi como abrir la Caja de Pandora porque siempre habrá alguien disgustado. Saludos, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 22:05, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Arbitration request on Kosovo
Dear Editor, since you have been involved in editing the Kosovo article in the last months, and that article has been the subject of long ongoing edit wars, your name is listed in the Request for Arbitration on this matter. You can make a statement here: Requests_for_arbitration. Due to the large number of editors involved, however, I would to ask you to keep your statement concise and to the point. If you feel you have not been substantially involved in the disputes surrounding the Kosovo article, please do not remove your name from the Arbitration request, but rather make a short statement there explaining why you feel you have not been involved enough to be part it. To understand my reasons for requesting Arbitration, please read my statement on the Requests for Arbitration page. Best regards, Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 10:10, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your comment, Asterion. Although I missed your 'official' anouncement to stop editing Kosovo, I figured that much since you were no longer active there. There is no need for everyone to make a statement at the AfD in this case, but I appreciate your explanation on my talk page. I got involved in the Kosovo article with the naive idea that I could mediate a solution, which obviously has proven impossible so far. If this AfD is rejected, I also will leave the article because it simply takes up so much time to keep repeating the same arguments over and over again and it all feels so useless, since no progress is made at all. If the ArbCom agrees and imposes some sort of restrictions on the article and possibly editors, I am willing to give it try to keep working on the article. But this really might be the last thing I am doing on that article. The Kosovo article is clearly one of the few examples where having a wiki as an encyclopedia leads to more trouble than to improvements. Thanks again for all the efforts you made, happy editing! --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 20:08, 31 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi there,
 * I have already said to you before that the best you can do is to change your password and also remember to log off if you use a shared computer (eg. internet cafe, university, etc). I am not an admin so there is nothing else I can do from my position. Speak to User:Dijxtra if you need to. Regards, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 21:50, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Your comments on Reinoutr's page
I thought your comments on Reinoutr's page were very informative - they're also very relevant to the arbitration proceedings. Could you possibly add them to the arbitration page? -- ChrisO 20:21, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Joint statement of evidence?
This case is going to be a rather complex one due to the large number of users involved. I would prefer to simplify the evidence-giving stage to make it easier for the Arbitration Committee - how would you feel about giving a joint statement of evidence? I'm happy to make a start on such a statement, which you'd be free to add to or modify as you wish. -- ChrisO 20:36, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

Savage Islands
I've no much time know, but I disagree, 1st because that are Noviscun ideas and missinterpretation of what he read on that page. When I have time for that know, I'll return later, but you can see my talk on his talkpage, if you understand Spanish and Portuguese, becaause talking in English. I've no problem with Spain disputing the islands, it would make the islands famous. You should be more caareful, and read about it. Hugs.--Pedro
 * Thanks for your reply. To be honest I have never heard about the islands before reading wikipedia. I guess the Spanish government is less bothered about them than some wikipedians ;-) After reading this, I understand your point: Spain only disputes the sovereignty over the islets as recognising them as Portuguese would entitle Portugal to an enlarged EEZ. I will remove the tag myself. Best regards, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 11:03, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Fully comfortable with Islets. And with your interpretation that whether they are islands or islets is the (at least nominal) root of the problem. Of course the true root of the problem is the substantial value of the fishery in the area. Skål - Williamborg (Bill) 15:30, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed. Have a nice day. E    Asterion  u talking to me? 15:34, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Advise on Tonycdp?
I'll add it to the statement of evidence. I think there's more than enough evidence of misconduct to justify Tonycdp being blocked for a substantial period for a range of violations, including POV-pushing, sockpuppeting, disruption and making personal attacks. In the meantime, I suggest that you raise it at the Personal attack intervention noticeboard - since I'm involved in the dispute, I can't take action against him myself. -- ChrisO 12:35, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Gibraltarian
Hola Asterion. No sabía que ese capullo te había acosado tanto. A mí me mandó unas decenas de mails y vandalizó mi página de discusión unas cuantas veces, pero luego lo dejó (ahora entiendo que lo tomó contigo). Suerte. --Ecemaml 12:49, 2 September 2006 (UTC) PD: he semirretornado, así que podré detectar los vandalismos de Gibraltarian (no sé si eso es bueno, realmente)
 * Gracias por el apoyo. No volví hasta que me enteré de la decisión del ArbCom. La mayoría de las páginas relacionadas están bajo semi-protección permanente por su culpa, por lo menos es mejor que tener que hacer revert varias veces al día como antes. A ver si tengo más tiempo y me decido de una vez a ayudar en la wiki en español que ya me vale. Un saludo, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 12:58, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Hey, don't mention it. :) I am getting very suspicous about Tony... he's acting strange. --HolyRomanEmperor 18:55, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

 * See also User talk:ChrisO/Tonycdp. Strange behaviour indeed. -- ChrisO 19:36, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmmm. Interesting stuff. E    Asterion  u talking to me? 20:19, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I've added his latest personal attacks to the list - see User talk:ChrisO/Kosovo evidence. Hopefully the translation I've given is more or less correct! -- ChrisO 12:21, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Translation is spot on. I added a few more diff-links. Thanks, E    Asterion  u talking to me? 13:11, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

I've added to it, hope that helped. &mdash; Khoikhoi 19:14, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I'm not sure if it's actually happened yet, but I'm glad as well. BTW, I noticed the Kosovo ArbCom, it really gotten that bad, huh? &mdash; Khoikhoi 19:18, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


 * That's why I tend to avoid former-Yugoslav-related articles. Oh well. :( Hopefully the ArbCom can settle things. &mdash; Khoikhoi 19:33, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: Disambiguation
I gave edit summaries for several of my edits and used revert for the rest, asuming anybody with an interest would spot one of them: Hatnotes. Joe D (t) 22:28, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Please note that the link you provided me with is for a proposed policy, which has not been accepted yet by the Wikipedia community. While I understand your reasons, there is no consensus and I cannot share your opinion. On the other hand, the example provided on the proposed policy page is not about geographical names but of different concepts. Indeed the current Disambiguation does not discourage the use of disambiguation links for similarly named places, quite the opposite: Most of the examples given for templates show the example For other places with the same name, see. Nonetheless, I will not revert your edits. Regards,  E    Asterion  u talking to me? 22:43, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for bringing my attention to the Disambiguation page. Though it's been on my watchlist for years, I haven't had time to pay attention to changes made to it in the past year.  I believe the encouragement to disambiguate when not needed was added by mistake (more details on that talk page if you're at all interested). Thanks, Joe D (t) 03:48, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I have added a No Personal Attacks warning. Given that user's history, I suspect it's someone else's sockpuppet. E    Asterion  u talking to me? 10:58, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You have to follow process. First you give him a, then a  and if it doesn't stop you report it at WP:PAIN. Hopefully there will be no need for that and you will be left alone. You could also request semi-protection of your user and talk pages. This way neither new nor anonymous users would be able to edit them. If you want to do that, please speak to an admin (eg. User:Dijxtra, User:ChrisO or User:Andrew Norman). Regards,  E    Asterion  u talking to me? 11:10, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

It looks like... (WARNING: Contains Namco references)
...my page was actually vandalized by a Korean (I checked the "Against Vandalism" page Wikipedia has and clicked WHO IS for that "flying dicks" vandal). The last thing I need is a confession that Hwang Sung Kyung from the Soul Edge series told that guy to vandalize my own userpage, and I don't think Jun Kazama (or Tekken fans of her) would like it very much, either. Has there ever been any Korean vandals on Wikipedia? --D.F. Williams 17:34, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Edit comment linking
I noticed that a while back (22:27, 18 August 2006), you made an edit on rainbow trout with a comment that included a number of helpful links.

South Tyrol
Hello Asterion,

Err, how am I in an "edit war" with User:Supparluca, who I never had any dealings with before? I edited the article on Bozen, the user changed something, so I reverted it, with or without the revert tool. And I am certainly not getting involved in an edit war by any stretch of the imagination, so maybe you could base your statements better? sincerely Gryffindor  21:59, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Apologies for any misunderstanding. Maybe the wording was not very successful but you have made significant edits indeed  in the last few hours, the last one including the use of the administrative revert button which I consider inappropriate.

 * Reverting links that do not exist or do not lead to an article will be reverted by me, whether I use the revert button or do it manually. I do not see anything "inappropriate" with that, sorry. Gryffindor  11:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I have offered User:Supparluca a solution for this specific problem, hopefully it will settle the issue and be acceptable. sincerely Gryffindor  19:04, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you.-- Asterion talk 13:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for reverting that vandalism on my talk page. I talked to User:Supparluca about the issue we had, and he seemed to agree therefore I put in the necessary modifications in the article, so hopefully the issue is settled. I appreciate the attention you give for quality and control on Wikipedia, keep it up and let me know if there is anything I can do for you in return. with kind regards Gryffindor  11:11, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

User Bokpasa

Kosovo again
82.114.95.33 is most likely Dardanv - it traces to a Pristina ISP which I've seen previously here. (Tonycdp is London-based.) -- ChrisO 19:53, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Some recognition
I must congratulate you for the great job you are doing on WP:RQM. You always make thorough researches in order to fundament your positions. I find that much to be appraised. :-) On a related note, I should warn you that Gene is impervious to argumentation that is contrary to his predefined positions. Don't let him drive you to madness. ;-) Best regards.-- Hús  ö  nd  03:57, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your note. I've got the article watchlisted. AOL :( -- Longhair 07:14, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

El País Reference
Hey, Asterion, I just made a change in the ETA entry putting the latest events in a different -I believe more suitable- context and in the meantime I have lost your reference to El País: don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that it is not useful...it is only that I'm such a dummy editing. Please feel free to include it in the new context, if you are comfortable with my edit. Thanks. Mountolive 21:07, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Your edit looks perfect to me....yeah, you're right with the "band" thing and ETA is not U2...and the "maximalistic" crap I didn't like it myself at all: you've said it in the perfect terms. Thanks. Mountolive 01:15, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Plazas de soberanía.
Sorry, I only wanted to revert an edition made by Statelscop about the name of Valencia in English. I do not intend to remove your contribs about the Spanish autonomous cities. I'm sorry. --Joanot Martorell &#9993; 22:37, 27 September 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem. I thought I had reverted Satlescop's edit myself. Thanks for letting me know. Asterion talk 22:39, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
