Greek drama articles
Hi! Great work with the Greek drama articles - that's something I worked on a bit in the past, but I was always distracted by other subjects. Thanks for filling out that topic! Adam Bishop 19:21, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Your version is mentioned in George Bain's classical "Celtic Art, The Methods of Construction" first impression 1951 twenty seccond impression 1999 on page 51. Varios ISBN's in GB and the States for example ISBN 0-09-476900-1 see http://library.ox.ac.uk/find?ISBN=0094769001.
 * Do you need the ISBN's from Aidan Meehan's books in the serie "Celtic design"?
 * I appreciate all your efforts and thank you in advance. Best regards Gangleri | [ Th] | T 21:04, 2005 Mar 4 (UTC)
 * Done, finally! (I kept having trouble uploading those files to Commons and then would forget.)  Images can now be found here and here.  -Sasha Kopf 16:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright tags
Thanks for uploading Image:NedBaby.jpg. I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use if you release it under the GFDL, or  if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. (Even images on user pages such as of you as a child need licence tags!) Thanks so much, Tagishsimon (talk) 00:06, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Women's rights article
Hi Sasha, I just wanted to say great job revamping Women's rights. That article has been hanging around, with little changes here and there, for quite a while, and was in great need of an overhaul. I had been planning on working on it, but personal and scholastic priorities have caused me to take a bit of a WikiBreak during the last couple weeks. Glad to see someone taking the innitiative! rom a rin [talk to her ] 15:06, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Black Tapir
I received the information from the book Mysteries Of Planet Earth by Dr. Karl P.N. Shuker. How would I cite from this material?(Bill Darwin 21:25, 15 June 2006 (UTC))

Re women's rights
===>Thanks for the note I can tell that you are actually concerned about the article being more literate and all-around better. I appreciate your enthusiasm and your interest in my opinion. I've written my thoughts on the talk page. I'm not really interested in editing the article myself (lack of knowledge, passion, and time), but if I get roped into the editing process, I'm not really opposed to helping out; ultimately, I'm really ambivelant about actually writing on the topic - I just wanted to read a good article on women's rights. -Justin (koavf), talk, mail 16:32, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Silas Kopf -- you need to provide a photograph as proof....
Oh, please, get a good picture of one of your dad's works that you can releast into the public domain. A full size photo of a particular work, plus a close-up of the marquetry on that piece. Please! KP Botany 03:50, 25 January 2007 (UTC)


 * I added the image to the article, thanks for just uploading what you have around, as anything will show he's not a slouch of a craftsman. I love marquetry to pieces though (sorry, couldn't resist), and simply can't believe it's making a comeback, and now I won't be able to find cheap pieces at flea markets when all those folks looking for that quality solid wood furniture finally realize the truth.   When you get a chance to share one of your father's works with either flowers or nature or one of the pianos, please add it to the article, or let me know and I will get someone with formating talent to place it--again, try for a shot of one piece showing the whole piece and a close-up of some part of the marquetry.  The tangram tables are awesome, though.  Thanks.  KP Botany 04:46, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

A fellow NUSL graduate
Hi, I noticed that you mentioned on your user page that you are a student at Northeastern University School of Law. I just graduated from there and I am currently studying for the New Jersey bar exam. I just wanted to give a shout out to one of my fellow Huskies. :)

If you have time, let me know what professors you had and what classes you are taking. One recommendation--take Margaret Burnham's Federal Courts class, it is difficult but worth the effort. Write me back on my talk page if you have time. --Eastlaw 06:41, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Tapirs, Elephants, and Dreams
I thought you might be interested in some material I added to the talk pages on entries for "Tapir" and for "Baku (spirit)."

As I'm sure you know, a good deal of material is out there on the web saying that the Japanese believe that tapirs eat dreams. Well, in a sense, yes -- but the Edo period dream-eating creature (a "baku") isn't a zoological tapir at all. It's a chimera, and I posted a reference to a 2007 book that shows a 1791 image of a baku with an elephant's head, tusks, and trunk, plus horns and a human face. By contrast, modern images dating to the 1980s show this creature as a zoological tapir.

It'd be an exercise in genuine trivia except that a good many people have latched onto the idea that tapirs -- the zoological ones -- eat dreams. My favorite is a web game at . Which is fine but many of these people cite the Wiki article on tapirs to prove it.

BTW, I liked the stuffed tapir on your website.

Timothy Perper 14:57, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, Sasha, for your comments about tapirs and baku. You offered to help rewrite the entry, and I would be most grateful if you could help. If you checked my user page, you'll have seen that I don't consider myself a Wikpedian at all and that I don't know anything at all about editing articles (although I've added a few changes to articles here and there).

So, yes, I'd be very happy to accept some help with this -- and thank you again for offering.

Tim

Tapir!
I am just writing to say thank you for your keen dedication to tapirs. They are fantastic. One day I hope to live among the tapirs and live their lifestyle. Michaeldrayson 15:23, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Tapir Editing.
Thanks for your help on editing the Tapir page. I still think I'm getting it wrong though. Do you study Tapirs? I find them fascinating. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CassieCamisado (talk • contribs) 12:28, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
