Units of Measurement
Continuing this discussion from the Mississippi River page, while I agree it would be nice to have the simplicity and uniformity of a single system, the truth is that the vast majority of US natives and many from the UK use Imperial units and find SI confusing. If I were editing in the FR Wikipedia, I would argue strongly against including Imperial units, but our main goal here is to serve readers, and as this is the EN version of Wikipedia I support using language and units that are most familiar to EN speakers. &mdash;Papayoung &#9775; 14:35, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Please note that I'm moving your response from my talk page to yours; like most editors I added your talk page to my watchlist when I posted here, so you could reply here; that way the discussion is all in one place.


 * Ok, I agree with you, I was a bit "franco-centric"... I asked a last question on the discussion page about the values source. --Gloumouth1 15:35, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * No worries. I've only been editing seriously for a few weeks, but I have learned how quickly my personal biases come to light when I engage in collaborative editing. I actually learn a lot about myself, doing this. And it was interesting to learn that it's been worked though (of course) long before now and is already a policy. Thanks again for your good work, &mdash;Papayoung &#9775; 16:22, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi Gloumouth, I'm pretty sure that it was OK to take photos, as our tour lady didn't stop me or other people taking photos of the impressive sculpture. I'm no lawyer, and I'm not sure if it is OK to license it the way I did, but I'm sure others will be able to find out. There was one sculpture we weren't allowed to photograph, but the tour lady made sure we knew. --Fir0002 05:24, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Your "descente infinie" sound file
I downloaded this file&mdash;you did create this (DescenteInfinie.ogg), didn't you?&mdash;and found it quite intriguing and entrancing.

As soon as I listened to it, I realized I wanted something more: a sound like this that could play continuously, arbitrarily long. So I'm wondering, do you see any way of doing that? Say by creating a MIDI loop or something?

Alternatively, if you could produce a sound file that could be seamlessly looped, where the end would mesh perfectly with the beginning, I could play it looped with a media player.

I think it would make really cool ambient sound. Look forward to any thoughts you might have. ==ILike2BeAnonymous 03:23, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Oh my God. That glissando effect is amazing!! Thank you!. MarkBuckles (talk) 05:27, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi, I tweaked the description page slightly but it seems generally ok to me, although I can't understand the mathematics. What, exactly do you mean by a page dedicated to this kind of stuff? --KFP (talk | contribs) 16:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your changes. By this kind of stuff, I mean a page where I could request for english corrections.-- Gl ou mo u t h 1 16:22, 7 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your note. Even though you lost the source code (sorry to hear that; bummer), since you have the equations, couldn't it be reconstructed? I guess what I'm asking is if you could construct a programmatic version that would generate an infinite loop; possible? It would be very cool indeed. +ILike2BeAnonymous 20:08, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Featured sounds
I noticed that you have participated in Featured sound candidates in the past. There are now two candidates and the project appears to be abandoned. If you could look at the candidates and vote it would be appreciated. Zginder(talk) (Contrib) 00:43, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
