Older articles have refs even if it doesn't say that
The need for the term "references" is a modern addition to the wiki. Prior to about 2006/2007, the standard was to use "External links" for this. So if you do come across an older article that has such a usage, like MacBinary, it would be more useful to change the header than tag the article. Thanks!

Hi! This message is just a friendly reminder that you signed up to participate in the GOCE Backlog Elimination Drive. I noticed that you haven't logged a single copy edit yet.

Motto of the Day
Hi Mono!

I saw that, while you're doing sterling work with the mottoes, when you declined a motto here, you forgot to put the motto discussion into the Decisions page. If you don't do that, we can't see what mottos have been used before. Other than that, you seem to be active on WP:MOTD, which is excellent. Keep up the good work! --Smaug123 (talk) 19:21, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Collab on MBA?
Hey mono, I've left a quick note at your editor review. I was thinking that we could collab on MacBook Air late this month into early August, after I finish the two GA reviews I'm currently doing (Talk:2010 Toyota/Save Mart 350/GA1 and Talk:Boeing B-52 Stratofortress/GA1). How does that sound? Airplaneman  ✈  Review? 17:05, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Sounds great. I've been quite busy iRl Face-angel.svg (notice the apple-y (i) thing...), and haven't been able to do a ton. Face-crying.svg I'll be up downgrading my internet connection soon, so beware of that as well. Anyway, I'll try my best!  — m  o  n  o    21:46, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * OK. My connection is just fine, although it is a base package, peaking at 1.5 MB/s download, .27 Mb/s upload; more than good enough for editing Wikipedia and watching low-quality videos . iKnow what you mean about downgrading. My school had such sporadic (to put it mildly) service from them that they dumped them not too long ago. So for now, if you have time, the lead on MBA needs expanding. RL comes first! Looking forward to collaborating, Airplaneman   ✈  Review? 22:20, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Attribution
I've actually come to the conclusion that images under GPL don't seem to require require attribution, so I think you can change them back to internal links to your userpages. Sorry about that. – xeno talk 17:11, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm... even if that is the case, you still need a copy of the GPL by the image. Which is why people should stop using it for images :/ In any case, I can't find the original source for the image I think you're talk about (the apple?), so I can't verify the license for myself.  — fetch ·  comms   18:49, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * =] (was also talking about the images on the user page)... "Leopard Icons in Black" no longer appear at opendesktop.org as far as I can tell; but if they did at the time then the license is irrevocable (I think). – xeno talk 18:52, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment on User:HJ Mitchell's talk page.

 * You'll probably want to make separate accounts for that, then. In other news,


 * File:Mono-Logo-071410.png uses File:A logo for mono.png and at least one other image in it (the Eiffel Tower pic), but neither are attributed in the image description. As this is a derivative work of the two, you need to attribute both, assuming the other is under a license requiring attribution as well. However, the original logo is under cc-by-sa. Notice the "sa" part, which means that you'll need to license the Bastille Day image under the cc-by-sa as well. I have no clue why you are using the GFDL for images anyway, because it is completely impractical to have a copy of the full text of the license next to the image at every use. I would just multi-license it under the cc-by-sa 3.0 and GFDL, like Wikipedia does.  — fetch ·  comms   02:12, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Images and GDFL do not really work well together and I see this all too often. Here is another example of a set of images also placed under the GDFL (from a user that seems to have made many images available here): File:3-way switches position 1.svg Sadly, methinks this might make such images ultimately unusable on Wikipedia (currently that is not the policy). 192.102.209.29 (talk) 02:29, 14 July 2010 (UTC)


 * The Eiffel Tower pic is PD, so no worries there. I have properly attributed the image on Commons. This comment would be more appropriate for my Commons page, as everything is there. GFDL is my personal preference, because of the limited nature. Eventually, I think it will be outlawed, but I'll consider relicensing later. fetchcomms, you're one to talk...<font face="Papyrus"> — m  o  n  o    23:58, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I asked here because you'd likely check it quicker; GFDL is simply not fit for images. That's like saying you should drive go-carts on the street because they're lighter. They have their purposes, but shouldn't be used in every case. And I have one public-network account, one AWB account (which I don't even use much any more), and one previous account which is blocked for security reasons. I'm not planning on making semi-bots (most of that can be done with AWB, I find), so I'm not making any more.  — fetch ·  comms   02:01, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * So what do you suggest? Multi-licensing? <font face="Papyrus"> — m  o  n  o    03:28, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * @Mono: I think this is what needs to change (as mentioned at your editor review). Being unnecessarily stubborn and inflammatory, like you are being above, will get you nowhere in your relationships with other editors here. Airplaneman   ✈  Review? 02:09, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey Mono. I saw your edit to Chinatown. Before everyone forgets about it, have you added the info to other articles? Do articles on these Chinatowns actually exist? If so, removing more descriptive info on them means you should instead link their articles (again, only if they exist) on the Chinatown page. Just plain removing good information is counterproductive. Airplaneman  ✈  Review? 03:03, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I checked before removing info that comprehensive material on the chinatowns exited, and I found that articles such as Chinatown, Manhattan were a better (in my opinion) way to present the info. While I am not on source patrol, much of the info that I removed was uncited, which leads me to question whether the info was "good" or not. <font face="Papyrus">  — m  o  n  o    03:26, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Yes, thank you Fetchcomms. I made a mißtake. @Forty two: This is exactly what I'm talking about. One letter is in German, but the letters a-a-ination are all in English. That simply does not make any sense. What would happen if we created a redirect that had French characters and Vietnamese characters and Korean characters all thrown in the mix? :| TelCo  NaSp <font face="Showcard Gothic"> Ve :|   15:54, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Misstake? German uses Latin characters, Korean does not. That's my argument. You've never been to one of those places where they still use the symbol, so how would you know it's not a reasonable spelling for some? I've never been to such places either, but I am fairly certain that, as the symbol is still used, there is no harm in keeping the redirects.  — fetch ·  comms   16:31, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Can I see this difference between Latin characters and Korean ones? I don't know how a single German symbol could stand perfectly well amidst English lettering. Could you also tell me how many people on average use such a redirect? There's not a neceßity in creating lots of unneeded redirects like boß, goßip, sißy or anything like that, so I don't know how it would apply here. I believe the majority of such redirects with ß don't exist. To clarify what I mean This, that and the other commented here saying "Besides the obvious unwieldiness of such redirects, there are many possible permutations of Unicode characters that could be used for each mathematical symbol in the formulae, and thus hundreds of possible redirects for each mathematical area. Keeping these redirects would open a messy can of worms." This can similarly be applied to the "hundreds of redirects out there" containing one or many instances of the German character ß.
 * While we're still arguing over linguistics, shouldn't Aß and Aßaßination be deleted per Aßhole and ß501? :| TelCo  NaSp <font face="Showcard Gothic"> Ve :|   16:47, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Regarding: स्फैग्नम
Hello, Mono. I see you nominated स्फैग्नम for speedy deletion under criterion G1. Not being a new user, you probably know by now that G1 is not for articles not in English, and made the nomination on basis of the previous, malformatted nomination's rationale. I am letting you know that after a bit of investigation I've concluded that this is the Hindi term for Sphagnum, and have tentatively redirected the title accordingly, declining your speedy nomination. A foreign-language redirect can be useful, especially if a user comes across the term but does not know its English equivalent. Cheers, <font style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"> Intelligent  sock  03:03, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Not all foreign redirects are valid. If someone creates "voiture" and writes an article about cars in French, there's no reason to say "oh, it's a duplicate of 'car', so I'll just redirect". We don't need to have foreign redirects for every term. This is not a translation site. Now on the other hand Les Trois Mousquetaires is a valid foreign redirect because that's the original title of the work. If you look at foreign redirects, they are all proper titles, not just random nouns. There is more being discussed at WT:CSD. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 12:57, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Er, Mono, you may want to change those tabs at the top of your talk page - the project links may be convenient for you, but not for new users who want to contact you. An anonymous user seems to have viewed your talk page wanting to leave you a message regarding what Inteeligentsock just covered, but instead of posting it here, they clicked on the "talk" tab, in which they were led to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Apple Inc. They ended up, unaware that the tabs were actually for project talk. By the way, I'm liking the "Congratulations! You're Wikipedia's one-billionth user. Click to collect your prize!" thing. ~<i style="color:#07517C;">Super</i> Hamster  Talk Contribs 03:18, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Regarding the editnotice, I am unsure whether recognizing and reproducing the recent spate of mass-vandalism is in line with the spirit of WP:DFTT and WP:DENY. I will not prevent you from displaying it if you wish to, of course, I merely wanted to let you know. <font style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"> Intelligent  sock  03:28, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

And I replied on my talk page; real classy strikethru at the beginning of the message. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 13:06, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Archives… and stuff
Hi Mono. Just a small thing, but what happened to the links on this page to your archives? It makes it hard for people who want to see older posts. Anyway, I like those huge letters in your edit notice about being Wikipedia's one-billionth user. I laughed. Wasn't there a sort of spambot posting the same thing (in red) not too long ago? Anyway, great work on Portal:Apple Inc. Also, I'll begin revamping MacBook Air this weekend or something, focusing on getting sources for reviews. Looking forward to the collab :).

 * User:Mono/Archive Index indexes everything, if needed. Glad you like the prize and the portal work I did. Yes, there was a spambot (I'd show you but they revdelled it. I'll try to work on it with you as well. <font face="Papyrus"> — m  o  n  o    01:05, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * That index is awesome; I should get one myself! I saw the spambot's revisions; they were in red. Good thing they got deleted. Airplaneman   ✈  03:57, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Please read my talk
Since when is A10 not a valid CSD? Please reply on my talk page. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 10:30, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I've responded there. <font face="Papyrus"> — m  o  n  o    04:03, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * You templated a regular. Again. I think if you removed/changed the CSD tag manually and typed out a short explanation, he would have received it better. Airplaneman   ✈  04:18, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

How many times have I been templated this way?
