Your edits to Boston Massachusetts
Hello, I really appreciate your contributions in trying to improve the article, but I think the Google maps links at the top of the info box look awful. This was a featured article, without those links (in that place). Although, having the coordinates are a great addition, the Google maps links in the infobox under Boston Massachusetts, like I said, are very unsightly. Is there a way you could include the coordinates underneath the map of Mass., and under the location? Without generating the 'Google maps SEE links' at the top? Having those links at the very top of the infobox compromises the flow. Please help fix this and I thank for your efforts. BTW, I removed the stats to take those "SEE Google maps" links away. Could you include the Google map and Google earth links under the map section? Or possibly under another heading? Appreciate your feedback on this. Thanks. Jeeny 19:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Hello again, Florenus. I do believe you are being helpful, and I really do appreciated it. Thank you for responding on my talk page. I like the idea of moving them down lower in the info box. Still not keen on the idea of the Google map/earth links though. Coordinates, yes! And I agree that having to scroll down can be a pain. But, I think it's good to have those options for many reasons. Such as not everyone has the same browser, uses Google, different preferences, etc. and that list gives them a number to choose from. Another reason, which I did not mention before, but was a big part of my reason to edit out your links, other than being unsightly, is I can't get Google Earth on my computer! I tried when it first come about. My computer is too old, apparently. And it's not that old, well it is, in this age of electronics I guess. In addition to my own limited computer capabilities, I'm sure there are many people who use Wikipedia with even older computers and if they click on that link, it would lock up their computer. It did mine, way back when. I was so disappointed and frustrated as I could not even see a thing but a big black box and my computer just stuck there. I had to manually shut my computer down using the power button. (Too bad you cannot get us all new computers, as that would be really helpful. ;p (Just a silly lighthearted joke, that last sentence.)) Anyway, I very much appreciate your help and I hope you continue editing here. We need you. Thanks! Jeeny 21:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, wanted to add, I love GOOGLE, except for GoogleEarth. I use it all the time, that and Wiki. :) Jeeny 21:29, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for changing the location. It looks much better. Though now, I will always be sad that I can't use GoogleEarth. :( Like I said, when I first heard about it, I immediately downloaded it, I was so excited, I thought what a wonderful thing! And fun! When it wouldn't work on my computer I was almost ready to run out to buy a new one just for that reason! LOL. Alas, all my money is going to the cars, house, and other things, I can't justify it just now. I will soon though! Thanks and have a good day/night! :) Jeeny 21:56, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: reply to cancellation of my efforts for Google Maps quick city link
Hi Florenus. I have replied on the discussion page at Template talk:Infobox City‎. I watch that page so I'll see your replies there. I hope I didn't upset you with the revert, I just didn't think that those intrusive links to google mapping services (one of which only works if you have google earth) belong in the infobox. Maybe we'll get other editors to weigh in as well so there is some consensus either way. --MattWright (talk) 20:58, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Image Bologna Middleage
Hello, do you have some more information about http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Bologna_Middleage.jpg ? It looks like an 19th century photograph, but the description "Bologna 11th Century panorama" could be understood so that this is some picture from the 11th century (though it´s obviously not). Is it a photo from 1917? You can leave me a reply here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:RNackas. Thank you!--83.236.209.216 (talk) 15:52, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Two letter codes
I have moved International 2-Letters Code ID for popular musical instruments to User:Florenus/sandbox. The phrase "to be proposed" (not even "proposed"!) gave good reason to think that this is original research. If these codes have actually recieved any attention in the real world, please add details to your article. But even then, I suggest you ask another editor before moving the article to the (article) namespace. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 16:49, 2 April 2009 (UTC) Because it is just that: a proposal and apparently your proposal. Did you follow the original research link above? I am sure there is at least one music forum out there on the web which will be happy to discuss your proposal. But please not (yet) on Wikipedia. &mdash; RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 17:04, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi! The author of this image is Roberto Regazzi - is that you? If yes could you perhaps change the license on panoramio or make a note there that you also uploaded it on Commons. If you are not Roberto Regazzi could you please leave a note on the file page why you can release the photo as cc-by-sa-2.5? Thank you. --MGA73 (talk) 10:18, 24 August 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem with this picture: Florenus HAS my full permission --RegazziR (talk) 21:33, 24 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Happy to hear that. If possible it would still be nice if you (RegazziR) could reply on Panoramio :-) Nice work by the way... Very... --MGA73 (talk) 17:56, 25 August 2010 (UTC)


 * He will do it as soon as he can, thank you! :-)--Florenus (talk) 07:08, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
