Bonjour JidGom, et bienvenue. Avez-vous vu le Wikipedia en français à fr.wikipedia.org? --Geoffrey 03:24 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Oui enfin j'avoue consulter de préférence la version anglaise... Sa lecture ne me posant aucune difficulté... JidGom 11:10 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Just a note about English usage if you didn't catch my edit comment on Francisco Franco. "An" is sometimes used before a vowel and "a" is also sometimes used before a consonant. Here's a good reference: Daniel Quinlan 01:16, Dec 10, 2003 (UTC)

 * Thanks that rule is tricky and I ignored it. JidGom 10:37, 10 Dec 2003 (UTC)

FYI, you may be interested in the changes made to SA80 where I moved the better history to Assault rifle. -- Fuzheado 01:10, 19 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
 * Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
 * Multi-Licensing Guide
 * Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the " " template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:


 * Option 1
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR
 * Option 2
 * I agree to multi-license all my contributions to any U.S. state, county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace " " with "  ". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)


 * Done -- JidGom (talk) 09:09, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Croissant picture
Hi!

I copied your picture to commons.wikimedia.org. I changed the name to "Croissant.jpg". Please check your licenses. ( http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Croissant.jpg ) I will link this image to the other wikis so your local copy can be deleted.

Thank you

RSA-200
Hi! Thanks for your updates on the various articles about RSA-200. I thought I'd drop you a note to let you know about the Wikinews article on the subject &mdash; here &mdash; in case you were interested in helping edit that as well. &mdash; Matt Crypto 12:38, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:14, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
