[edit] To boldly go...

It was very good of you to prepare a draft on talk:dilated cardiomyopathy, but I think it could just as well have gone into the article space. The stub sitting there at the moment is not satisfactory.

I was thinking of moving the content myself, but as you wrote it you might as well move it. Be bold is an important Wikipedia policy :-) JFW | T@lk 18:24, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

How I noticed the page? Goodness, I can't remember. It may be that dilated cardiomyopathy was on my Watchlist; in that case, edits to the talk page also show up. Alternatively, I may have seen your message on someone else's talk page (it could have been Ksheka's. Anyway, I'll see if I can add anything to your fine new creation!

[edit] Correct PKL?

I don't call it the CORRECT PKL. I'm ashamed of seeing my country's Standard Institute suggesting a CORRECTed PKL, without following the basic concept of typists ease of typing!

Hi!

For software to customize your keyboard see here.

I think you will change your mind once you spend some time with the "standard" keyboard. It actually works great.

[edit] Decimal separator

Hi Huji, I was reading the article Decimal separator and noticed some countries with sizeable populations not listed in the sections ¨Dot countries¨ and ¨Comma countries¨ including Iran. So I thought I´d look up an Iranian Wikipedian and suggest that you add Iran to which-ever category it belongs. Thanks, AussieDingo83 08:45, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Hello again. Thank you for your help. Hopefully there will be some feedback and the article can be made more complete. P.S. The way I found you was the page Category:Iranian Wikipedians (this is an internal link, I just couldn´t get the link to work properly), which you were automatically added to due to your ¨This user comes from Iran¨ userbox. These automatic categories created by userboxes are a great way to find people that might know something about a particular subject matter, such as countries, languages, certain TV shows or movies, history, science, religion, etc. This is a great argument for these handy little things that some people seem intent on getting rid of. Anyway thanks again. AussieDingo83 03:23, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Decimal separator

Hi Huji,

The reason I removed the stub tag is that the article looked too long to be a stub to me. However, I understand your point concerning Arabic and Persian languages. In such cases it is often best to create a section about this certain sub-topic and then mark it as a section stub. But, I guess with this article that won't be possible, since the article isn't split up by languages. So, if you feel, that it would be appropriate to mark it as a stub, go ahead. By the way: it is better to use {{math-stub}} or something even more specific than the generic {{stub}}.--Carabinieri^T_T^a_a^l_l^k_k 19:43, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup processes

Hi, and thanks for offering your help.

• No you don't have to be an admin to participate in Wikipedia:Redirects for deletion, but you should have an understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines.
• You can find open tasks here, or here or you can have SuggestBot suggest pages for you to improve.
• I don't know whether you must be an admin if you want to join the cleaning department, but feel free to ask them on their talk page. --Zoz (t) 17:08, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I agree with what Zoz said. I'm not an admin. My understanding of Wikipedia:Redirects for deletion is that anyone can vote on a proposed deletion. I don't know anything about the "Cleaning department", actually I had never heard of it before your message on my talk page. Perusing their project page, it does seem that for at least some of the tasks they are talking about you do have to be an admin. However, you may wish to help out at the Wikipedia:Cleanup Taskforce. That is quite different from the "Cleaning department". As I understand it, the "Cleanup Taskforce" deals with, essentially, editing articles for style, spelling, grammar, and factual accuracy. That does not require you to be an admin. --Mathew5000 22:43, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How can I help more?

Beland, I'd like to get more involved in Wikipedia, and I'm interested in maintenance tasks. But I've never done them before, and the help section pages have confused me rather than showing me where to start. I'd be glad if you can offer some guidance. huji—TALK 10:51, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I notice that you have a physician userbox; you may be particularly interested in the new "maintainence by topic" pages, specifically Wikipedia:Pages needing attention/Health science. This is a consolidated list of health-related articles with various problems. Basically, you can start here to find articles you might be interested in that need improvement. If you improve an article enough to fix the problem indicated, you can remove the cleanup tag from that article. (There's a short list of cleanup tags at Wikipedia:Cleanup resources.) If not, you can leave it for future editors. You can also apply a more specific tag, which is sometimes helpful. There are sometimes hints about why someone added a tag in the edit summary they left in the article history, or sometimes they leave notes on the article's talk page. If you remove a tag from a health-related article, it will disappear from the listing the next time it is updated. (Which may take a few weeks, but you don't have to worry about keeping the list updated yourself.) Category:Articles that need to be wikified has good instructions on how to wikify if you haven't done that before. It also has thousands of backlogged articles to be wikified that are sorted by date and not by topic (if you are interested in helping with the massive wikification drive which is currently ongoing). The only other important term which may be unfamilar is "stub". This is simply a descriptor for short articles; once they get a little longer, the stub tag can be removed or possibly replaced with an {{expand}} tag for a particular section. Good luck and thanks for your interest! -- Beland 02:13, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] about "Category:EBM"

Hi, Huji, and thank you for invited me to write something on EBM. I am glad if I can contribute some items to wikipedia. I started learning EBM in the last decade and I really like it.

I saw there is a discussion on if we should merge “Category:EBM” into “Category:Medical informatics”. From my point of view, I prefer we have an individual category for EBM. Now, in this category, there is only four items. But I think later we will see more because EBM is a exciting field.

I don't want to make my timetable too messy, So, if I have time I will add something to this category. Good luck to you. User:Ph.eyes—TALK 7:13, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Two Articles in need of your attention

There are two entries at Wikipedia, which have falsely created -- they are Turco-Persian and Turko-Persian Tradition. Both entries are factitious. I have requested the entries to be deleted. My reasons are:

The term Turko-Persian Tradition (or Turco-Persian) does not exists academically and it is a factitious entry! Check the Encyclopaedia Iranica to confirm -- The correct name for that culture is the Persianate culture not the "Turko-Persian". Turkophones (mostly of mixed race and Persianized in culture) only spoke in Turkic dialects and were in the military. That is not enough participation in creating and forming the culture to deserve the name "Turko-Persian Tradition" – This is misinformation. All the elements in that area, which have to do with tradition and culture, were drawn from the Iranian culture (Persian, Kurdish, Azari, Baluchi, Tajik, Luri, Gilaki, Talishi, Mazandarani, etc.), and the Islamic faith, not much Turkic elements (like shamanism, yurts etc.) were incorporated in. That is what makes the name "Turko-Persian" an imaginary one and therefore the entry should be deleted.

Any contributions would greatly appreciated. Bā Sepās Surena 02:24, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AWB

Will AWB support right to left languages like Arabic or Persian? huji—TALK 18:12, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

It should, as far as I know. Try it out, and let me know :-) —Mets501 (talk) 19:28, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

I checked it out. These wikis are not listed on the Language dropdown: fa, ar, he. I'm afraid no check pages are available on those wikis as well. I'm thinking of extending AWB's source code to be usable for Farsi wikipedia. I've downloaded the source code. Any recommendations? huji—TALK 07:30, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

He is listed, but the other two are not. If you cannot get the custom project working, then you could add fa and ar to Variables.cs in WikiFunctions (you'll have to add them to "public enum LangCodeEnum" and create a case for their namespaces below). —Mets501 (talk) 12:01, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

All right. There is one more thing I need to know. Do we need to have a checkpage on Fa wiki to make AWB work? huji—TALK 20:25, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Nope. If there is no checkpage, all users are enabled by default. —Mets501 (talk) 21:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Teacher's Day in Iran

• Hi, this is Bahar from the Turkish Wikipedia. I've been translating the article Teacher's Day into Turkish. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teachers%27_Day#Iran Here at the end for Iran it writes commemorating the ai on May 2, 1980; but it's not specified what or who ai is. If you can help, it would be great. Thank you for sparing your time. You may find me on my Turkish talk page. --Bahar (Spring in Turkish) ✍ 08:38, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
• I would like to thank you for doing my favor. So in Iran Teachers' Day is celebrated on May 2 while Morteza Motahhari died on May 1 or that is stated by mistake I believe. My name Bahar is a Farsi originated word but is concordant with the 2 rules in the Turkish language for a word to be Turkish but the sound 'ha' doesn't originally exist in Turkish. You may ask help from me about Turkish (Wikipedia). Happy editing, tr:Kullanıcı_mesaj:Bahar101, --Bahar (Spring in Turkish) ✍ 17:26, 25 March 2007 (UTC) Oh, before I leave I wondered whether there are any Iranian biographies you would like me to add to the Turkish Wikipedia who you think that everybody must get to know him. From my user's page you may look at what articles I've first started in an alphabetical order, which mostly contains biographies. I will add Morteza Motahhari for sure. You may find the Iranian people's category here: tr:Kategori:İranlılar

[edit] Someone please help me

I'm unsure if a photo taken from a paper bill can be published on wikipedia or not (for example to show how a £2 bill looks like.)

While it may not be copyrighted as it is a government work, (not positive this applies to UK, try asking on the help desk), it may violate counterfeiting laws. Find the relevant webpage of the UK government that deals with counterfeiting. There will proably be restrictions on size and color for reproduction, even digital. Sorry if this isn't very helpful. Mr.Z-mantalk¢Review! 22:16, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the reply. I wasn't actually addressing a UK bill. I gave that as an example, and to ensure I'm not going to get the same answer I would get for a US bill (for which I know the copyright restrictions.) I wanted to know if there are any concerns except for the local rules of the country of interest, which should be met. Thanks again. huji—TALK 22:22, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

I`m sorry for fa.wiki sysops and in the greater scale for the persian`s country governments, who some acts has been done with them which cause this escaping!! further you must know that one blocked wikipedain that imprisoned with rebel sysop, only for saying the fact and having the real NPOV, preferred to immigrate to one realy free and NPOV encyclopedia like en.wiki! because in this wiki, opposite the fa.wiki, the NPOV doesn`t identify with hating from Israel & USA or killing the jewish wikipedians. I`m sorry for all of them that think the fa.wiki is iranian.wiki, or slamic.wiki and must be pushed the POV of Islamic Republic dynasty of iran in it. please translate and transfer this message from me for farsi wikipedians and write it on the admin`s notice board in the fa.wiki.

[edit] Persian

Huji,

In response to your queries :

• English, French, Latin, German, and a modicum of Greek.
• We may discuss the matter via IRC, MSN Messenger, e-mail (which may be tedious), or, perhaps, another medium -- if such is more preferable to you.
• My chief intention is to familiarize myself with the written language (for the sake of literary benefit, respectively) rather than the spoken-language in itself. Although, of course, I am not opposed to any phonetic benefits that may be attained thereof. Moreover, I am not greatly interested in much contemporary literature, although, of course, I am also not opposed to learning the content of such. I would say, perhaps, the literature of late 19th century would be most appealing to me (for I imagine that it has not evolved greatly over the course of a century).
• Thus far, I have learned but little in the art of the Persian language. For quite sometime, I have been familiarizing myself with Latinized Persian, yet, have only recently began to read rudimentary sentences composed in the Persian text. As for the overlap of the two languages; I do not believe that I can boast knowledge sufficient enough for making such an observation. Although nevertheless, I am sensible of the fact that the two languages use the selfsame text (along with Urdu), and, also, that many Persian words may be familiar to many Arabic-speakers -- although in regard to Arabic, I know absolutely nothing. All the same, I am quite eager to learn Persian and do hope, perhaps, that it will grant me sufficient grounds learning Arabic in the future (if I choose to do so).

[edit] RTL

Hi Huji, thanks for your suggestions. Regarding your first suggestion, I'm not adding other RTL languages to the code at the moment because translations for those do not exist. Also, he and fa are not the only other RTL languages, so adding just those would be a bad idea that could cause confusion in the long run. As for your second suggestion, the implementation is not that simple--not all wikis are first-letter-uppercase wikis; most Wiktionaries are case-sensitive in all characters. However, I do have a plan to implement a more complex version of that when I have some time. Cheers, Tangotango (talk) 10:01, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, no need for any kind of obligation :) If you want some small tasks to do, I'd suggest you check out Wikipedia:WikiProject External links/Tasklist. A lot of the articles that have been listed as having a large amount of external links simply need a couple links incorporated into the article with <ref></ref> tags, which is not a serious workload at all. Just pick and choose what tasks you want to do--you don't even need to finish them. After all, there's no hurry :) Happy editing, Arky ^¡Hablar! 19:07, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:DiffMergeScreenshot.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:DiffMergeScreenshot.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 16:16, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Simple English Wiktionary

An editor has nominated Simple English Wiktionary, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion.

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simple English Wiktionary and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 19:14, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
