Gyn and Sheerlegs
Hi! I read the two articles that you created. Could you revisit them, and provide an introduction at the beginning of each article to expain the context of the subject matter? This will help readers who are not familar with the subject matter to better understand the articles. Thanks! Regards, Accurizer 21:15, 26 April 2006 (UTC) You are right! I am studying nautical science and looked for these terms many months ago at wikipedia. I found in a book the meanings for gyn and sheerlegs and paraphrased the paragraphs in the book. It would be more helpful to understand the articles if somebody creates a sketch or pictures as in the book I chose as reference. Unfortunately I am not a good graphic designer and I don't like to take pictures out of the book since they are probably copy righted. Janno 21:22, 26 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, this is in response to the above and the question you posted on my talk page. I think you could revise the introduction to begin with a broad overview of what these things are. For example, you could say something like: Gyn is a wooden device similar to a pulley that was commonly used on sailing ships in the 18th century to lift elephants. (Of course, I don't know if this is true, but hopefully this will give you an idea of what is needed.)


 * I agree with you that pictures would be very helpful to these articles. Take a look at Images, it provides some recommendations on where to find images suitable for use in Wikipedia. Also, you can request other editors to help at Requested pictures. If you have any further questions, please feel free to drop me a note on my talk page. Happy editing!

Your Clause articles
Please clean up your clause articles. You are writing them with no context, no appropriate stub tags and no categories. They are very hard to understand and they are orphans. Hu 04:29, 24 June 2007 (UTC)


 * They are not hard to understand. If you want to improve them go ahead. I made my contribution. Janno 10:02, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Deletion review
I notice that you listed Rigging extempore gear on Deletion review. You should know that while there is nothing wrong with objecting to a deletion, you should specify why you are objecting and what reason there is that the unanimous consensus to delete the page was incorrect. Unless you do, it is very unlikely the page will be undeleted. You can add your comment at Deletion review/Log/2007 December 8. Stifle (talk) 16:44, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Proposed deletions
Please note that I have proposed the following articles for deletion due to the lack of references which are required by the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 16:51, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Lighterage clause
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Lighterage clause, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the  notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add db-author to the top of Lighterage clause.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Janno. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Janno~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:37, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
