Rotary International
I notice that the membership section has explanations for how to use a link!? "to read a biography, click on a name. For example : click on Augusto Pinochet to read the bio of an honorary Rotary member" This seems odd and I notice it has been deleted and added back maybe a couple of times. Why is this needed?

 * Good morning. I have restaured two times that vandalism and explained two times.
 * I am happy that you use now the disc. page as said in "History".
 * You said "If some people can't see links, how are they supposed to get to Wikipedia in the first place? Instructions removed.)" and I answered you : " Blind people use a max the caracter-reading system, wikipedia is not accessibility-compliant, or older people are not always equipped to see the links".
 * I notice that you corrected the social actions of Rotary and seem to know well the Rotary social life. Are you Rotarian ? I speak of vandalism because we had a lot of vandalism onto that page, because Rotarian did not like to enumerate some "Famous Rotarian". For example, Pinochet was removed from a so called Central America IP address.
 * Rotary-certified people tried also to flood "Bad" Rotarians in a full list of other members.


 * I have a few questions :
 * Can a disabled person learn by text-mode that she can read any bio ? GW.Bush, Armstrong ?
 * Is the problem linked to to have some name choosed as an example ?
 * Can Pinochet be a problem as an example ?
 * Do you prefer somebody else than Pinochet for an example of Famous Rotarian ?
 * I do not mind at all to place anyone. Who do you prefer ?


 * By the way at a time there was a distinction between Famous Active and Famous Honorary,
 * to show a symetry with the two types of membership. I have restored it.
 * Best regards,

 * I am totally confused. As of the current time, I have not edited anything on the Rotary page. If you are referring to the comments on the edits, I'm afraid they are not my edits and they are not my comments. I'm just here asking about these odd directions. Personally, I think they're irrelevant. What other Wikipedia articles have such a explanation for how to use a link? I've never seen one, but I've seen many similar lists. My question is, "Why this article? Why Rotary?" Jjinfoothills 03:15, 28 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Well this is the only wiki I developed for the moment on en.wiki and most of European langages. You're right there is some list problem about the long list and also for the readibility or accessibility. I can't help on that, because this list is the result of a flooding technique for wikipedia fiddling, done after the work I did to add facts onto Rotary.
 * The real problem is that is a closed club, like freemasonry, and...not really transparent.
 * The only way to add info is either to think on facts, either to accept info from Rotarians.
 * I plan to change the presentation to make the list more readable for a non-blind. I do not want to cut anything, as it could be some censorship. By the way, I cure for blinds also, which could be upset by the length of the list. That"s already the case for non blinds, and the purpose of the flooding. This flooding, I repeat was done by people close to Rotary (User CeeGee for example). About the way to explore accessibility, I can't help more than that for the moment, I suppose wiki will evolve to comply to nex accessibility standards. PierreLarcin2 12:41, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

 * This was uploaded nearly two years ago and at the time I think "non-commercial use only images" were frowned upon, but not deleted (?). A partner image (same source) was also uploaded but got tagged without the "non-commercial use only", however upon looking at the source it also has the "non-commercial use only" tag. I have therefore listed that image for speedy deletion as well. At some future point I will search out replacement images for the article when I have time, or head down there and take them myself.
