Organic Valley, Inc. article
Hello- I recently joined Wikipedia and uploaded my first article, Organic Valley, Inc.. I noticed that you were heavily involved in the creation of the "Organic Food" article, and was wondering if you could review my article and provide feedback to help me improve my writing style. Thanks in advance! Goldtome 16:28, 10 October 2007 (UTC)Goldtome

Opinion poll results in WikiLeaks 'Criticism' section.
Hi, regarding your recent addition of the poll results, I'm not sure they are appropriate, and have commented on the talk page: Talk:WikiLeaks. I'd be happy to see your response. 00:26, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanx for the note. I'll follow the discussion there. --spitzl (talk) 01:26, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Michael Cherney
I appreciate your intention in updating the links I had previously set forth but it is pretty bad form to edit the substance of others' Talk comments even with the best intentions. It would have been better, I think, to append your own comment with the updated information. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 02:30, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that. In fact I realized I shouldn't have done it when I had already hit the button. It won't happen again. Best wishes. --spitzl (talk) 02:42, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * No problem. All's well that ends well, eh?  JohnInDC (talk) 03:09, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Vienna Capital Partners
Hi, regarding the Vienna Capital Partners article: There are still some references missing (e.g. No. 3, No. 5 are broken). Are you still trying to find alternative sources? (I already tried without success.) If there are no sources, I think we should discard the respective parts. --Chrahrtio (talk) 15:48, 8 March 2011 (UTC)
 * See Talk:Vienna_Capital_Partners. --spitzl (talk) 00:40, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

I've started a more appropriate map of the outbreak.Wipsenade (talk) 16:45, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanx for the notice. See my reply at Talk:2011_E._coli_O104:H4_outbreak#misleading_map.--spitzl (talk) 17:40, 2 June 2011 (UTC)


 * OK. :-) !Wipsenade (talk) 19:15, 2 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Done.Wipsenade (talk) 19:51, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

House 21
I've added to the article and suggested it could be nominated for DYK. Perhaps you would like to look it through youself and see if there's anything you would like to add or change. I also looked for other English-language material on both House 20 and House 21 but couldn't find anything although there's quite a bit on 20er Haus and 21er Haus. I've included a redirect from 21er Haus but wonder whether it might not be more appropriate to have it as the title -- unless you have local sources on House 21? - Ipigott (talk) 12:04, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Hi. Originally the building was called "20er Haus". The name was only changed recently "21er Haus", prior to the opening of the new museum. Surely "21er Haus" is the official title. I wasn't sure about the excact wikipedia naming policy. Do you normally use the original name in local language or the english version/translation? The english version of the official website is www.belvedere.at/house21 (hence I used house 21). But you are right, I think it might be better to stick to "21er Haus".--spitzl (talk) 13:10, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I have moved the article to "21er Haus" now. Feel free to nominate it for DYK. It is definitely brand new.--spitzl (talk) 14:15, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The article has now been nominated for DYK by user:Elekhh. Please follow the discussion, etc., on his talk page . - Ipigott (talk) 15:01, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Frage

 * Wenn du mir deine Emailadresse schickst (siehe email this user) dann kann ich dir gerne die Quelldatei (Numbers- oder Excelformat) schicken. Sie enthält selbst zusammengetragene Daten von Bloomberg von Dez. 2009 bis Dez. 2011. Vielleicht findest du auch auf tradingeconomics[.]com CDS-Daten die du als registrierter User runterladen kannst.--spitzl (talk) 00:27, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

European Sovereign Debt Crisis
Interesting article relating to the bail out fund: Monti Expects Euro Debt Firewall Deal This Month, Bloomberg, 1 March 2012. Connolly15 (talk) 09:27, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Soon we may also see the (re-)introduction of EU project bonds, which are exempted from article 125 of the EU treaty: Barroso wants to launch first 'project bonds' by June --spitzl (talk) 12:22, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's now a GA. Thanks for your efforts in fixing "problems" & congratulations on a Good Article. Pyrotec (talk)

God... You mixed real info provided by Eurostat with forecasts provided by Ernst & Young here http://www.ey.com/GL/en/Issues/Business-environment/EUROZONE-COUNTRY#top keeping Eurostat as source in the image. Also, Ernst & Young's original source is Oxford Economics (which are based in the UK and keep predicting Greece will default ever since 2010). You need to fix this image accordingly to what is real, or whatever official information you may find, or I will report it for deletion.

These predictions are highly unprobable to be exact. For example, look at the differences between the two images you yourself submitted:

I see your point but estimates are by nature only estimates. Would you be satisfied if I added a line stating that the estimates are taken from different non-eurostat sources? --spitzl (talk) 16:54, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I just changed the wording to make clear that estimates are not from Eurostat. You find the new version here.--spitzl (talk) 16:46, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
