More 'welcome' :-)
Hi,. I know Killiondude 'welcomed' you above, but I just wanted to add my own version of the introduction. If you have any questions, please talk to us. The tips below should help you to get started. Best of luck!

IRC
Guess you're having connection troubles? Anyway - good luck, and come back to IRC any time, for help etc.  Chzz  ►  01:32, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Fredrik Rosing Bull
Hi there.

I made a few edits to Fredrik Rosing Bull, and I've added it to my 'list of things to look at'. Unfortunately, that list is quite long at the moment, so it is likely to be a few days at least until I get to it again. I will get there eventually though.

If you have any specific questions about the ideas we discussed on IRC - or about anything else - leave me a note on my talk page.

Cheers,  Chzz  ►  00:15, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Hi from Tasmania
Always nice to hear from a fellow WW1 "nut".

The Richthofen article is very far from being "my" article - it was already there some time before I started on Wiki, and has been constructively edited by many others besides me since. It IS a very polished and well referenced one (much better than most WW1 articles in Wiki) and you could very well use a more or less straight translation for your Catalan one. Be careful about "improvements" - especially "additional facts" - the people who have edited this article have between them probably read almost everything that has ever been written on the subject - what they haven't included has probably been left out on purpose, either because its accuracy or notability is doubted.

Don't worry about "however" - the end result was probably slightly clearer, anyway.

Yes, someone has decided the "Biggles" picture lacked suitable copyright "fair use" justification - we really need to find a "free" image somewhere. I know the "copyright police" on Wiki need to watch out for images that might breach copyright, as Wiki articles themselves are supposed to be able to be copied freely etc. etc. but sometimes they are a pain in the (hem hem) anyway. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 20:50, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Thank you
As the self-appointed overseer of World War I fighter aviation, I have spent two years chasing rumors of a Greek World War I fighter ace. I had given him up as mythical. After I found one for WWII, I became convinced that he was the rumored ace and gave up. Now you have delivered him to me, complete with a nice little article.

Moraitinis has been added to the List of World War I aces credited with 9 victories. Why not take a look and see if the listing is correct? I have misgivings about the Greek flag.

About his name, I know that especially older books mention him as 'Aristides' or 'Aristide'. It's about Greek spelling: according to archaic Greek, 'Artistides' is the right form (like the ancient one), but according to modern Greek he is spelled 'Aristidis'. I've just followed this, where the Greek letter 'η' becomes 'i' in English.

By the way, feel free to ask everything about the subject, or any other Greek aviator of that time.Alexikoua (talk) 12:04, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello, Mezod,

I don't know if you have been with Wikipedia long enough to have mastered disambiguation pages and such, but...

There is a disambiguation hatnote at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aristidis_Moraitinis that was created to straighten out confusion about this name, as it is apparently that of both an aviator and a politician. I am not proficient in Greek, but you might check it out. It seems the slight difference in spelling differentiates them.

Speedy deletion declined: Donald James Stewart
Hello Mezod. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Donald James Stewart, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The reason given is not a valid speedy deletion criterion. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:32, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Note
Note that there seem to have been two with the same name. The Fitzgerald in aviation differed from the scientist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.30.71.244 (talk) 14:07, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
