User talk:Jusjih/Archives to Feb 2006

Welcome
Hello, welcome to Wikipedia.

You might find these links helpful in creating new pages or helping with the above tasks: How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Naming conventions, Manual of Style. You should read our policies at some point too.

If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump, or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!
 * You can introduce yourself on the new users page.
 * If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: . If you use four, you can add a datestamp too.
 * If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.

Again, welcome! Chris Roy 17:49, 11 Mar 2004 (UTC)

ISO 3166-2
Hi. Thank you for contributing. You appear to have created the pages ISO 3166-2:MA and ISO 3166-2:LY. I don't know if you've created others that are like it. Please allow me to point out to you that you are duplicating a lot of redundant information. The information that is not specific to ISO 3166-2:MA should go to ISO 3166-2 instead, rather than into each single one of the articles about each coutry code. Thanks. &mdash; Timwi 12:37, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)


 * I am not duplicating redundant information. I am making layouts for new pages, but as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:ISO_3166-2 concerns copyright of ISO 3166-2 codes, I have added no codes in new pages until the matter is clear, but I have added relevant newsletters so someone can follow the link. http://geotags.com/iso3166/ says that it reproduces ISO 3166-2 codes with permission, but some codes and names there are outdated. &mdash; Jusjih 00:22, 13 MAr 2004 (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)


 * I do not fully understand what you mean if I would be willing to multi-license all of my contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. What is multi licensing? As of now, I concentrate in Chinese Wikipedia where I am an administrator with much work to do. I have not logged in to English Wikipedia for very long time, so I have not replied until now. Jusjih 10:27, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia licenses articles using the GFDL license. I would like to use Wikipedia's articles using a different license, so I am asking people for permission to do so for their own contributions.  This is accomplished by adding templates (such as "  ") to your user page which tells everyone that you give permission to do this.  If you still don't understand, then don't worry about it, I'll just move on. RM 16:30, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)

interwikiing note
Hi! I noticed you added a Chinese language interwiki link to the English article on French Polynesia. Unfortunately, these links do not fan out to all other language versions of the article, and must be added to each article individually. I realize this can be a pain, but I can almost guarantee that a Chinese laborer working on a farm in Israel who accesses the article and thinks it is only available in the languages listed on the Hebrew page would be very grateful to learn that a Chinese version of it exists as well. :-) TShilo12 08:40, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your message. As I use Wikipedia in English, simple English, French, and Chinese only and I am an administrator in Chinese Wikipedia, I have no time to add interwiki in any other language versions. As Chinese Wikipedia ia much smaller than English and French ones, I am adding some articles there.--Jusjih 08:50, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Traffic and the boycott
No, I don't. I've never read anything about traffic snarls, nor have I seen any evidence of it in the footage of the boycott over the years. Keep in mind that Montgomery was still a fairly sleepy southern city back in the 1950s. Traffic congestion wasn't that much of an issue. That doesn't mean there wasn't any impact on traffic patterns, but I deleted your language because it was vague and obviously purely speculative. Peace. deeceevoice 13:55, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

What is with your fixation with the freakin' traffic and whether or not I have a driver's license? Get over it! The speculation with regard to the motivations of white housewives picking up their black domestics is a matter of historical record. There is no way of legitimately knowing exactly how many were in sympathy with the boycott or just wanted their dirty drawzzz washed and meals cooked because they were too damned lazy to do it themselves. They were not polled, so it is impossible to know. However, finding out if there were traffic problems can fairly easily be ascertained. Read the historic record. If there were traffic snarls, presumably, they would be mentioned in reports of the period. There would be records on police blotters, reports in the press, ample documentary evidence in the footage shot of street scenes of people walking, empty buses passing, of private drivers. Speculation on something that can be verified or debunked with a little effort makes an article look sloppy and downright amateurish. If you're so wed to inserting language into the article about traffic patterns, then do your research. It's deleted. deeceevoice 28 June 2005 11:51 (UTC)


 * I understand that the comment "Some white housewives also drove their black domestic servants to work" is the subject of an edit war about the reason these whites drove their servant to work. I would suggest that this entire comment be deleted b/c there is a high chance this is merely an urban legend. I grew up in Montgomery and I repeatedly heard this statement presented as fact by white people who were embarrassed by their city's history and wanted to make it seem that the city's whites had not been so set against the boycott. Despite these statements, though, I never saw any documentation of this occuring. In addition, even if some whites did this, it was on a small, individual basis. UNLESS someone can produce a reference that "Some white housewives also drove their black domestic servants to work" the entire statement should be removed--Alabamaboy 7 July 2005 13:35 (UTC).--Alabamaboy 7 July 2005 13:30 (UTC) Note: I also posted this comment on the article's discussion page.


 * In addition, for what it's worth, I doubt the boycott had any impact on traffic patterns in the city at the time. Montgomery was a small, "sleepy" city at that time. The city did not encounter traffic problems until the 1970s and 80s.--Alabamaboy 7 July 2005 13:35 (UTC)

Thank you for voting to support my RFA. I've been promoted, and I promise to wield the mop with good faith, patience, and fairness... except when I'm exterminating vandals with the M-16 recoilless nuclear Gatling mop. --malathion talk 07:52, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for you support on my recent RFA. Please let me know if I can help with any particular administrative responsibilities, or if you have any problems with the way I use the admin tools. Cheers. --BaronLarf 00:41, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

Running on a similar theme, thank you very much for your generous support on my adminship nomination. Be sure to pull me up if I'm ever acting stupid :). Thanks again and happy editing, Slac  speak up!  21:49, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

My (gkhans) rfa
I really appriciate the support, but you did it on the wrong page :P Requests for adminship/Gkhan 2 is the right one. Thanks btw! gkhan 08:33, August 16, 2005 (UTC)

Japanese emperors
Please do not edit the newly created redirects for the Japanese emperors. The articles themselves will be moving and those will no longer be double redirects. I and others will be fixing other redirects that are created by the move. Thanks. -Jefu 22:36, August 22, 2005 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your response. There actually is a new policy at Manual of Style (Japan-related articles) and discussion at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (Japan-related articles). -Jefu 22:48, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

HappyCamper's RFA - Thanks for your support! :-)
Hi Jusjih! Thanks for your support on my recent RFA! I was especially touched by receiving support from someone in the community I haven't had the chance to get to know better. I hope in the future we can collaborate on a project, whether it be writing articles, or performing more administrative things. If you ever need a helping hand, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page. See you around the Wiki, and thanks again for your support! --HappyCamper 12:50, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Redirects of 9/11 domestic complicity conspiracy theories
Hi, I appreciate your trying to get rid of double-redirects, but the orignal page was moved against consensus. Unfortunately this is not the first time this editor has done this. Jayjg (talk) 08:50, 4 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Regarding the time it requires to be a sysop, it really depends on how much time you want to put into it. Sysop powers are useful in certain areas of conflict, but I spend almost all of my time on Wikipedia just editing like anyone else. Jayjg (talk) 16:09, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

I wanted to thank you for supporting my RfA. Unfortunately, it did not reach the required level of support and failed. Apparently, some didn't feel that I had participated enough outside the article namespace. I may try again in a few months. Thanks again. --Rogerd 21:39, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support
Thank you very much for your support on my nomination for adminship. Now that I have been made an admin, I will do my best to live up to the truest you and the community have placed in me. If you ever see my doing something you think is incorrect or questionable, or does not live up to the standards that should be expected of an admin, please let me know.

 Many thanks for supporting my RfA...

...but unfortunately it wasn't successful on this occasion, receiving seven support votes, seven oppose and seven neutral - about as balanced as it gets really.

Southeastern Europe and the Third World
Hi! I've noticed that you voted that the Southeastern European countries should be included as "maybe" on the Third World map, at Talk:Third_World/countries_vote. If you don't mind me asking, why should these countries be included as "maybe Third World"? Aside from Albania, Moldova and to an extent Bosnia and Herzegovina, Southeastern Europe is quite well off on a world scale. All countries except Moldova are middle-income in this region, and have middle-group HDIs (in fact, Bulgaria and Croatia have high-group HDIs). Also, they are very rarely referred to as Third World in common usage, instead being seen mostly as transition economies. Thanks, Ronline ✉ 07:23, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

My RFA
Hey, Jusjih, I wanted to thank you for your support of my (unfortunately unsuccessful) request for adminship. The final tally was 37/16/5, which fell short of the needed 75-80% for "consensus". I don't know if or when I'll go up for nomination again, but even if I don't, I will try not to betray the trust that you and 36 others were willing to place in me. Thanks for having faith in me... and happy editing! Matt Yeager ♫ ( Talk? ) 00:38, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, just wanted to thank you for voting on my RFA, which went through with a count of (58/0/1), far better than I'd expected. I intend to take things slowly and start using the extra abilities gradually, but if there's anything I can do just leave a message. Cheers, CTOAGN (talk) 13:54, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for taking the time to vote in my RfA, which passed with a final vote of 54/2/1 despite my obvious inadequacy for the job. I'll do my level best to use the mop and bucket — or, as I said in my RfA, plunger — responsibly. Of course, in the best tradition of politicans everywhere, I've already broken a campaign promise (I blocked a vandal last night despite having said "I don't anticipate using the blocking tool very often"). Nevertheless, I'll try not to let the unbridled power corrupt me. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 14:56, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi Jusjih,

Thanks for your comments on my RfA. I totally agree that all admins should be accessible via e-mail - unfortunately I did not think of this when I put in my application. I have altered my preferences and my user page accordingly. Any other suggestions of ways in which I could improve my RfA would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for your support during my recent Admin election, I appreciate the trust that you have put in me. Please contact me if you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding my work as an admin.

Hi. On behalf of my right eye, I'd like to thank you for giving me your support on my recent RfA. It ended with a final tally of (73/2/2) and therefore I have been installed as an administrator now, and I'm ready to serve Wikipedians all over the world with my newly acquired mop and bucket.
