Geomon
No problem - I think I've already fixed the Japanese, so I don't think you need to worry about it. If you want to be extra careful you can preview your changes (click the "show changes" button) before you save an edit: that should show you whether you are about to change more than you expected! By the way, welcome to Wikipedia. --RobertG &#9836; talk 11:27, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Icelandic IPA
I have tried to fix the IPA and translations which you have put into some Icelandic articles. Also, note that we usually include this kind of information in the introduction, rather than separating it out. Finally, I removed the photolink you put in the Þjórsá article, it is probably not useful to have a link with only one photo and moreover, I am not convinced that the photo is actually of Þjórsá.

 * Are you going to leave the translations out? Maybe we should leave the IPA out too, and just link to wiktionary. Erudecorp ? * 23:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm sure it is quite common to have IPA in the leads of articles and this is often encouraged. But I'm a little bit on the fence about the translations, for me, Eyjafallajökull means simply the glacier (jökull) at Eyjafjöll. I suppose that if somebody pressed me then I would say that Eyjafjöll means "the island mountains" so I would have to accept that Eyjafjallajökull is "the glacier at the island mountains", but such thorough decompositions may not be very meaningful. Case in point, in the West fjords there is Vatnsdalsvatn, which simply means the lake (vatn) in Vatnsdalur. But what does Vatnsdalur mean? well, it is the valley (dalur) with the lake (vatn), whereas the other valleys in the area don't have big lakes in them. But would we really want to say that Vatnsdalsvatn is "the lake in the valley of the lake" or that it is "the lake in Vatnsdalur". I prefer the latter. Stefán 23:56, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Archiving Jesus
Just letting you know that I undid your page move archiving of Talk:Jesus. The reason why is because since December 8, 2005 (or archive #20) we have been using the copy and paste archiving technique. When you moved the entire talk page to archive 85, you also moved the page histories of archive 20-85. Therefore, if someone wanted to go through the talk page history to find an original diff for an archived text, they'd need to search through the archive 85 page history. I have instead, moved the page back to Talk:Jesus so that users who ever may want to search the history can more easily find their content (if that makes sense. I feel like I'm not thoroughly explaining this,s o ask questions if necessary). That said, two months ago, I explained who we generally archive pages for Talk:Jesus, and you are welcome to give that a read if you want (see Talk:Jesus/Archive 85). Thanks.-Andrew c [talk] 15:20, 18 November 2007 (UTC)


 * It was gigantic and no one archived it. Thanks for fixing it. Erudecorp ? * 18:50, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Homophobia
Hey, I've just stumbled upon your question upon the roots to homophobia in history you asked in November last year on the talkpage to homophobia. Tabu Homosexualität might be an interesting source for you, also see its author Gisela Bleibtreu-Ehrenberg and her other main work, Angst und Vorurteil. --79.193.44.74 (talk) 20:13, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

"Tierra Media" listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Tierra Media. Since you had some involvement with the Tierra Media redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. Hog Farm (talk) 18:30, 13 April 2020 (UTC)
