The Dark Council
Apparently someone went and deleted the Dark Council article. Do you have any idea what happened? I can’t find anything in the deletion log, and of course the deleting Admin couldn’t be bothered to inform me, nor did the one who originally submitted it for AFD (I assume it wasn’t deleted outright), as is considered civil. I must say I’m p*ssed off to no end, as a lot of work went into that article. Not only that, but apparently the Cheeseweb and Campaigns of Lotr articles were removed too, amongst others. I can’t see any real reason for this.

Do you have any idea why this is? If so, please tell me.

John Chrysostom
Hi, I've responded to your comment on the talk page. Could you leave a note as to how dissatisfied you are with the current version of the article? I'm sure there's a version that works for both of us. I don't really have a whole lot of requirements&mdash;other than my edits staying the way they are. Taxico 08:44, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey what do you have to say about Beit Or's recent edits to this article? He has been changing what some of these sources are saying in the name of "POV". I pointed out that these are direct quotes from the sources mentioned and that modifying them would be misreperesting what the source is saying. ==  Taxico  16:16, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your efforts on improving the article. Majoreditor 03:57, 2 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the welcome. Time permitting, I will try to expand the STC article at some point in the next 2-3 months.  My initial inclination is to focus on his liturgical contributions and add to the homiletics.  I could envision both of these becoming their own articles.


 * I'm reluctant to express an opinion on a proper English translation for Kata Ioudaion -- my Greek is a bit rusty.  It's my understanding that scholars are divided on the matter.  I will try to get feedback from someone better versed in early Byzantine Greek. Majoreditor 00:50, 3 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I did some additional research and spoke to a Greek scholar. I can support Harkins' translation, or just leaving it as transalphebetised Greek. Majoreditor 00:32, 6 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi, Grimhelm. Saw your feedback recommending that the item in question be labeled Kata Ioudaion. I will support a change.  Do you want to bring this up for broader discussion?  Let me know how you want to proceed.  Thanks. Majoreditor 21:41, 7 January 2007 (UTC)


 * OK, ket's go for it. How about the following specif changes:

(1) Change the name of the section heading from "Against the Jews" to "Kata Ioudaion" :Discourse Against Judaizing Christians; (2) switch the order of paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 to reflect proper emphasis; (3) change references in the article to "Kata Ioudaion"; and (4) an explanation on the discussion page stating the reason for the edits. Please let me know what role I can play to help you. I'd also suggest contacting like-minded editors to join the discussion.


 * Your thoughts? Let me know how I can assist. Majoreditor 00:56, 9 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the feedback, I'll start shortly.Majoreditor 01:40, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Michael of Syria
Hi, this is bbcrackmonkey. I see you've copied and pasted a quote from a primary source into an article of mine about the Second Arab siege of Constantinople from a "Michael of Syria" and I was wondering if you could cite the source of it or tell me where you got the information from. Theophanes the Confessor, perhaps? bbcrackmonkey 02:04, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

wargames
Hi Grimhelm

We have been pushing the idea of using images of wargames to show battlefield deployments and the course of events. Our problem is that we lack maps and people able of creating battlefield maps. By chance I realized you are familiar with the topic, so I would very much appreciate your advice.

My idea was to use photos of wargames taken from a bird's eye view with colored arrows indicating troop movement. In case the symbols for the troops are figures they should be deployed, colored and equipped in a historically accurate fashion, furthermore it should be easily possible to determine their troop type and to which side they belong. This is likely suitable for premodern warfare.

Kirill Lokshin raised the issue that it may not look professional, so I'm greatly interested in using the same wargaming style which was in use among the contemporary militaries. This would make it more authentic and really professional in my opinion, especially for the early modern and modern warfare until the rise of computers.Wandalstouring 05:10, 20 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't know all wargamers. Possibly you try to arrange this yourself and show me some photos :P. There were small skirmishes in many wars(and they are unlikely to get maps) so this could be done with for small numbers of miniatures. What really bothers me is to get more info on historic military wargames used to emulate battles(by professional officers). This would be the prefered style.

Userify
At least as I use it (which I believe is vaguely common practice on Wikipedia), to "userify" would mean to move it into user space (ie as a subpage of User:Grimhelm), where you (or others if desired) could edit it to your heart's content. Then the idea would be to move it back into article space when you're done with it. Cheers --Pak21 08:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Bolli Bollasson
Dear Grimhelm. Are you positive about "the first Norse member of the Varangian Guard"? Are you sure that you have not misread the source? The Varangian guard was founded in the 9th century, 200 years before Bolli, two centuries during which Norse mercenaries from Sweden were in the Varangian guard and probably some Norwegians and Danes as well.--Berig 22:01, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Some of our Russian friends are taking good care of making the articles on Rus' NPOV and they are seeing to it that the articles respect the strong nationalistic Anti-Normanist POV which is common in Russia. In Western books, however, the prevalent POV is that the 9th century Rus' and also 10th century Rus' were mostly Swedes or descendants of Swedes living in what is today Russia. We also have the problem that Northmen or Norse can refer only to Norwegians/Icelanders in Norse sagas, and exclude Swedes and Danes.--Berig 22:20, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
 * It sounds perfect, IMHO.--Berig 22:40, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Bolli Bollasson, was selected for DYK!
Thanks for your contributions!  Nish kid 64  18:52, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * It appears someone messed up with the crediting at T:DYK/N. I was just crediting from there, and it said Berig instead of you.  Nish kid 64  18:52, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

The cog pic
Hi Grimhelm! I was surprised that Bolli took a hanseatic cog to Denmark, but are you sure that it was a cog and not a Knaar?--Berig 22:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC)


 * It is probably a just a translation. I have just checked the Old Norse version and it says knarrarbátinn, another word for knaar. The German Wikipedia has a nice picture of a knarr if you would like to use a knarr picture instead.--Berig 22:45, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * PS, I think the story is a bit too early for it being a Hanseatic cog, as well.--Berig 22:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Siege of Constantinople (1422)
I still think that the article doesn't really distinguish between acttual likely events and the religious dogma of the time. I understand how it is possible to take offense at what I am doing here, but please believe that my intentions are completely good and I am pretty sure I am correct in this situation, although I am and rather areligious I harbour no contempt for religion and am actually quite interested in the subject. Yet I still think it is important to not present legend as fact.- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 20:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I agree that it needs to be expanded, but I think the stuff about the apparition should not be mentioned in the main body. If it is to be mentioned at all it should be in a seperate section. The problem with stating it as if it really happened is that it hurts the credibility of the article.-Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 22:08, 2 February 2007 (UTC)


 * My main problem with the most recent version was the phrase "Contemptorary accounts attribute the victory to an apparition...". Perhaps it could go something like, "Byzantine and Ottoman legend holds that the appearance of an apparition of ... was responsible for staving off Byzantine defeat".- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 08:56, 5 February 2007 (UTC)


 * How about "Contempory Byzantine and Ottoman tradition attributed the victory to an apparition of the Theotokos...".- Moshe Constantine Hassan Al-Silverburg | Talk 02:29, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Landsknecht.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Landsknecht.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

GAMESWORKSHOP!
Hey I saw on your page that you're a LOTR Battle Strategy Game person. Thats affiliated with GW right? I collect that too. My favourite tactic is to use loads of bowmen, shoot the enemy, and withdraw. Its so frustrating for the enemy, especially if you have missile supremacy. I also like cavalry, particularly Riders of Rohan. I also collect Warhammer. If you like LOTR you might wanna buy the Warhammer "Battle for Skull Pass" box set, its got lots of stuff for only $45 or 40 pounds. I just thought I shoudl let you know.

DYK arranging
Just letting you know that the instructions actually say that nominations should be listed "with the newest dates at the top".

I've added some redirects to this from alternative titles. According the online dictionary I checked, cannon is an accepted plural form, but far more people use the plural -s.

WikiProject Vikings and WikiProject History of Scandinavia both appear to be defunct at this point. I would like to set up a new Wikiproject to oversee articles on ancient and medieval Scandinavian and Nordic history that would cover what these inactive projects used to. There are literally hundreds of great articles on obscure sagas, historical figures and the like (largely through the efforts of such users as User:Berig and User:Wiglaf).

Commercial use of Image:GimliOnDeadUruk-hai.jpg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:GimliOnDeadUruk-hai.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:GimliOnDeadUruk-hai.jpg is an image licensed as "for non-commercial use only" or "used with permission for use on Wikipedia only" which was either uploaded on or after 2005-05-19 or is not used in any articles (CSD I3).

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license GFDL-self to license it under the GFDL, or cc-by-sa-2.5 to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use PD-self to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

Byzantine-Arab Wars GA Sweeps Review: On Hold
As part of the WikiProject Good Articles, we're doing sweeps to go over all of the current GAs and see if they still meet the GA criteria. I'm specifically going over all of the "Conflicts, battles and military exercises" articles. I believe the article currently meets the majority of the criteria and should remain listed as a Good article. In reviewing the article, I have found there are some issues that may need to be addressed. I have made minor corrections and have added three citation needed tags for several statements within the article. Please add sources for those within seven days and the article will maintain its GA status. Also, it would be beneficial if the large quotes were introduced in a prior sentence of who said them or from what excerpt it was from. Right now, they seem to just be entered into the text with a source afterwards, which may confuse some readers. If progress is being made and issues are addressed, the article will remain listed as a Good article. Otherwise, it may be delisted. If improved after it has been delisted, it may be nominated at WP:GAC. I don't see that being a problem since the article is so well-maintained. If you have any questions, let me know on my talk page. Regards, --Nehrams2020 23:51, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

28mm
Not sure where that quotes from, but that sounds like it comes from years ago, when GW was interested in other games than it's own (it did Runequest [I think!], Paranoia, Judge Dredd, etc.). The current LotR minis are, if I recall correctly, "proper" 28mm scale, whereas the WFB/40K figs are "heroic" 28mm. Darkson (Yabba Dabba Doo!) 23:30, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah, you may be right then. To be perfectly honest, other than a few (moria?) goblins, I've not really seen any of the current LotR figures, as I don't play the SBG, and as they're smaller, they're no use to me for my uses (mainly Blood Bowl).  I was led to believe they were prtoper 28mm scale, but I'll bow to your superior knowledge on them.
 * But yeah, the old GW LotR range was 28mm, though they look small compared to the current 28mm figs, due to GW's scale creep.
 * Agree with the edits you've done to the GW article btw. Darkson (Yabba Dabba Doo!) 17:15, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
