Hi.
I'm not terribly smart. Well, besides the four languages and the two degrees. But anyway - wiki smart. I can't even figure out where to ask for help or how to search for simple easy ways to edit/fix something. I'm not terribly interested in learning arcane html-like language codes, so when's this whole user-friendliness thing gonna hit wikipedia? How do I even make a suggestion or communicate with other wiki-editors? Is there a forum I don't know about? Pointers would be much appreciated. Pär Larsson (talk) 22:05, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Public Policy Initiative Recruiting Assessors for Spring
Hi Sophus Bie, I saw that you are in the Wikification Leaderboard of February 2011 and I would like to ask you if you want to participate in an initiative [Public Policy Initiative (PPI)] carried out by WikiProject United States Public Policy. If you are interested in research and want to experiment with article assessment or just want to help out, please, join our group of assessors because we really need your help. If you have questions or need more information, please check out the discussion on the assessment tab and the WPUSPP Assessment department, or contact, who is the Research Analyst for the project. Also, if you know valuable and trusted editors who are expert in USPP and/or articles assessment, please invite them to participate to this project. The work to be done is not so much, and will start next spring. Your help would be much needed and greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance and all the best. –p joe f (talk • contribs) 10:21, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Barnstar & Huggle

 * 1) Thanks for the barnstar.
 * 2) Since you seem to do quite a bit of vandalism patrolling, have you considered using Huggle? It has to be used with care, as it is very easy to make mistakes, but if you are prepared to take that care it is a great help, and considerably reduces the time it takes to deal with vandalism. JamesBWatson (talk) 15:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)


 * You could try Igloo, which is a platform-independent alternative to Huggle. My very small amount of experience of it suggests it is less convenient than Huggle, but it seems to be a reasonable alternative, and should be OK with Linux. JamesBWatson (talk) 16:24, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow- thanks! This is the first barnstar I've gotten! --E♴ (talk) 00:03, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Typos
Hi! I now have well over 350 typos logged on this page, and I was wondering if this offer still stands. Thanks!--Yaksar (let's chat) 02:57, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Well thanks! I really appreciate it.--Yaksar (let's chat) 03:12, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Notability
Thanks for arguing my notability -- fascinating to read people talking about you in cyberspace. Guess we'll see what happens. On the question, may I refer you to these cites that have not yet turned up on the Wiki page: http://nationaljournal.com/magazine/political-insiders-poll-20110120 (Questions that get asked of about 100 of us on each side of the aisle every week or so by National Journal Magazine) and http://www.campaignsandelections.com/publications/campaign-election/2009/july-2009/shop-talk-beyond-dumpster-diving (a 2009 roundtable in which I participated for Politics magazine)

PS I still do work in New York occasionally, but not much since Giuliani's presidential campaign of 2007-08.

PPS I dropped in a couple small corrections (and one cite -- a 12/6/92 Washington Post retraction about my job status), but otherwise left your additions as you placed them. See you around the campus. GaryWMaloney (talk) 20:53, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

I lost my family on 9/11.
Why are you scare of me telling the true? I have the right to speak my mind in the USA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.226.39.60 (talk) 05:13, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

The last time I check, Wikipedia headquarters is in the USA. So Wikipedia is under US Law. You have try to prevent me from using my First Amendment Rights. Do you want to say anything before you are reporting to Wikipedia. Where do you come from? It does not sound like the USA. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.226.39.60 (talk) 05:29, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

I cannot about talk my story how my family was murder on 9/11. Yeah, you let people talk how great it is they are going to build a mosque on Ground Zero? What is wrong with you?

Moroccan Jews
"You are using heavily promotional language, and furthermore, nothing leads me to believe http://www.darkeabotenou.com is an authorative source. Please discuss on talk page."

I'm sorry I don't undertand what the problem is, no one said anything about Darke Abotenou being an authoritative source, it is a cultural website with the goal of preserving the heritage of Moroccan Jews, there is no product or service being sold, it is just a database and archive. The only one of its kind in existence today. It's not 'heavily promotional language' it's just explaining what the project is. Picman14 (talk) 13:52, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!
Just wanted to drop by and say thanks for the barnstar! I appreciate it! :) Carmichael95 [TALK] | [CONTRIBS] 01:17, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Typo fixing
Hi Sophus Bie, I have a typo hunting bot that is sort of beyond the beta testing stage and I wondered if you'd be interested in looking at the results? Results are at User:DeltaQuadBot/Page Patrol/Results, it works on safe pages and safe phrases which can be found at User:DeltaQuadBot/Job requests, this is the bot that I use to patrol typo strewn words like posses. More queries could be added.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers

Adopt-a-typo userboxes
The site use userboxes are just that, for site use. They do not add people to the wikipedians who have adopted typos category. The, , and templates all produce the exact same user box, but also add people to the category mentioned above. Also, it might not be apropriate to place the userboxes themselves on the typo team site. Maybe just a link to the adopt-a-typo adoption pride section would suffice?

 * P.s. I am sorry, the above post might be alittle to the point. I should have tried to be more tactful, but it is late where I am. I really appreciate your help promoting and contributing to the adopt-a-typo project. Please don't stop. :)  Majestic Pyre My Speech Bubble  05:50, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
