p'tit nouveau

Salut Guillom...
puisque c'est toi qui m'a accueilli, y a moyen que tu me fasses faire le tour du propriétaire et que tu me dises quels sont les coins importants et où est-ce que tu penses que je peux être utile ? (comment ça, tu veux reverter ton message d'accueil ?? fallait y penser avant, faut assumer maintenant ^^). David Berardan 12:19, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Les pages les plus importantes (qu'il faut avoir en suivi) sont Goings-on et Template:Information thread. C'est ça qui permet de se tenir au courant de ce qui se passe et de ce qu'on peut faire pour aider. Par exemple, c'est sur ces pages qu'a été annoncée l'élection du Boardet le fait qu'on cherchait des traducteurs. Il existe une sorte de bistro multilingue (Meta:Babel) pour les discussions générales. Je te conseille également de t'inscrire au Wikizine. Voilà, n'hésite pas si tu as d'autres questions :) Guillom 20:06, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Traductions élections

Salut gars,
je pars en vacance à la fin de la semaine, mais je devrais avoir le temps de donner un coup de main pour les traductions avant de partir. David Berardan 08:00, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

salut à toi

j'ai un soucis avec les traductions des candidatures : les candidats ne sont pas les mêmes dans toutes les langues !! Que doit-on faire ? on traduit tout le monde ? juste ceux présents dans le template ? David Berardan 09:37, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Salut David,

Merci pour tout ton travail de traduction. En ce moment, je suis assez occupé, mais à partir d'après demain je redeviens disponible :) Les candidatures ont été harmonisées, donc il n'y a plus de soucis.

À bientôt. Guillom 15:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

Translation combination boxes

The following text was copied from Meta:Babel#Translation_combination_boxes. As an active translator, it may be of any interest to you:

Hi, Sabine worked on new boxes for translators. They aim at giving information about translation combination: say, I can translate from English to French, from Italian to Spanish, and so on. It would help us to know who can translate what, in what, to streamline the translation process. The boxes do not provide information about your level (wether you are a professional translator or not, for example); you may write something about this point in your user page (very useful as well). A few boxes are available, be bold and create those you need :) Be aware we use ISO 639-3 codes for languages (fra and not fr, eng and not en, ...).

Please see "Translator in the following language combinations" and pick up templates for your user page!
This message was pasted on several User talk pages of active translators.

Thank you :)

Election notice translation

Pardon in anglais, mais ma franc,ais est formidable ...

Thank you, Guillom, for your translation of the Election notice! I expect you informed already the page to your community, Francophone projects.

I hope your work encourage many Fr editors to be involved. Again, thank you! --Aphaia 09:33, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Aphaia,

I have already informed the Wikipedia community, and now that I'm back from (too short) holidays, I'm going to check the other French-language projects are informed. I will also tell the frwp community again about the election, so as to have many voters involved. Btw, I noticed some candidates' presentations aren't available in French, so I'll try to translate them or find some people to do it.

Cheers! Guillom 08:03, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Multilingualisation de l'élection

J'ai créé Election officials 2006/Fr et Election translations 2006/Fr et une série de modèles multilingues pour la liste des candidats et des traducteurs (voir Template:Election translators ML#About this template et Template:Election translations 2006/Candidates#About this template.) dans la perspective de proposer tous les éléments d'interface de l'élection de façon multilingue. Arno Lagrange ✉ 10:45, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

Salut. Oui, j'ai vu que tu étais assez actif sur les modèles ce matin, alors j'ai attendu pour voir ce que ça donnerait une fois finis. C'est plus clair comme ça, bravo. Guillom 10:48, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

A late candidate

Salut there Guillom, there is a late candidate for board elections. As you worked and helped a lot translating other candidates presentations, I though it might be a good idea to inform you, because time is short. Merci in advance. Election candidates 2006/Oscar/En (original) --Dbl2010 06:01, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your message ; I'll make sure his statement is translated. Guillom 07:12, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Merci beaucoup :) --Dbl2010 20:28, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

Commentaires inutiles

Je suis désolé d'avoir été désagréable, mais je suis toujours agacé en trouvant dans des textes français traduits, des expressions qui sont soit des barbarismes soit des faux-amis (le fameux "éditer" par exemple) : le résultat est que la lecture d'un tel texte français me donne la même sensation que la lecture d'un texte anglais où je dois à chaque instant m'efforcer de translater (si! si!) dans ma tête le sens de chaque mot. Mes plus plates excuses pour ce mouvement d'humeur. Arno Lagrange ✉ 07:20, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

J'ajoute que traduisant moi-même les candidatures de l'anglais à l'espéranto j'éprouve comme toi quelque fois des difficultés à comprendre ce qu'a voulu dire le candidat (nous avaons eu quelques échanges à ce sujet avec Habj qui traduit vers le suédois). L'exercice de traduction met en application un crible sévère qui jette une lumière crue sur un texte et en souligne les faiblesses. Alors je m'appuie aussi sur la traduction française quand elle est déjà faite, et c'est là que parfois je suis hérissé de trouver en français quelque chose qui n'est pas plus clair pour moi que ce que j'avais du mal à comprendre dans l'original anglais. AL ✉ 07:25, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Ce n'est pas grave ; c'est vrai que je suis parfois frustré de ne pas parvenir à comprendre complètement ce qu'a voulu dire le candidat, alors parfois je préfère coller à son texte, quitte à ne pas être « très français », plutôt que de tenter une interprétation qui serait complètement à côté de la plaque. C'est pour ça que la version est tout un art, qui consiste à rendre l'essence d'un texte tout en étant le plus correct et le plus intelligible dans la langue traduite. guillom 07:39, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Translation request

Hello, Guillom, I noticed your name on the list of available translators for the Board of Trustees elections for French and English. The Wikipedia Signpost is looking for someone to help us talk with Hadraj, a French candidate not proficient in English. We've been asking each of the candidates some "interview" questions, so would appreciate someone to translate the questions, and then translate his replies back to English. There's only a few questions, and the replies to each one should be brief. Because of publication deadlines, this whole process needs to be completed quickly (i.e. within the next week), so if you or another translator with some free time could help us out, that would be great. Just let me know as soon as possible, and don't hesitate to ask me if you have any questions. Thanks a lot! Flcelloguy (A note?) 01:03, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello. I will do my best to translate it or to find someone to do it. guillom 08:04, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Charles Matthews

Bon OK ! je m'attaque à Election candidates 2006/Charles Matthews/Fr, mais c'est vrai que j'étais plus emballé par la proclamation de Zuirdj. Pour traduire il faut avoir un peu de fun. Je me suis tenu à faire toutes les traductions en espéranto (Diable deux de plus ce matin !) et j'ai même fait imprudemment celle d'un candidat qui a été pointé comme inéligible par nos superviseurs - travail superflu ;-). alors pour les deux derniers - et les suivants ? jusqu'à cette nuit minuit UTC, - j'attendrai que ce soit confirmé. surtout que les deux derniers ont bien évidemment pondu un grand baratin et que ça ne fait jamais que deux Etasuniens de plus. Oui le positionnement de Zuirdj qui revendique la représentation de la diversité me touche plus. Arno Lagrange ✉ 08:45, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Bon! au fait la traduction était déjà presque faite, je l'ai un peu retouchée et complétée. Il reste des lacunes "outside tourist Bubble-wrap" et je crains que nous n'ayions commis encore quelques contre-sens - je me suis rendu compte de certains en rapprochant ta traduction française de ma traduction espéranto. Je demande à Charles de vérifier lui-même la traduction puisque, à ce qu'il dit, il comprend le français. AL ✉ 09:20, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Merci beaucoup pour ton coup de main ! Si je t'ai demandé ce coup de main, c'est justement parce que je savais que tu avais déjà traduit sa candidature en esperanto, et donc que tu devais avoir compris son texte :) Nous verrons bien ce qu'il en dit. guillom 17:12, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Election candidates 2006/Cartman02au/Fr

Salut Guillom,

Je ne suis pas sûr qu'il soit utile de conserver ce lien. La section "Présentation des candidats" ne devrait contenir que les candidats toujours en course (et validés, au début des élections). Cette information n'est à mon avis pas très importante pour les votants, qui devront uniquement se prononcer sur les candidats confirmés.

Qu'en penses-tu ? Korg + ⁺ 17:05, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Salut Korg. J'ai hésité à venir t'en parler, et je me suis dit que si ça te dérangeait tu viendrais m'en parler :) Je pense qu'il vaut mieux le laisser tant que les élections ne sont pas ouvertes, car si quelqu'un voulait voter pour lui, au moins il a une explication. De toute manière, il faudra faire le ménage juste avant l'ouverture pour enlever les candidats non confirmés, alors je ne pense pas que ça dérange si on l'enlève en même temps. guillom 17:09, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

D'accord, pas de problème :) Korg + ⁺ 17:16, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Et d'ailleurs, si ce genre d'info apparaît utile après l'ouverture du vote, il sera toujours temps de créer une nouvelle page sur les "candidatures retirées"... Korg + ⁺ 17:18, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Re: Translation request

Thanks a lot. Would you mind translating the following message and statement, emphasizing that I need it as soon as possible? It would probably be easier if he replies directly to you, and you translate it back to English and leave me a message. Again, this needs to be done as soon as possible - we're about to publish, and the sooner we get it in, even if it's after the issue is published, the better. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 21:10, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

re : Wikiversité

Bonjour Guillom,

merci de nous relancer sur le projet wikiversité, j'essaye de suivre ce qui se passe sur beta, bien que cela ne semble pas bouger autant que sur la wikiversité anglaise. Je me demande s'il ne faudrait pas lancer des discussions dans une wikiversité française et relayer un résumé de discussion sur beta comme nos amis allemands ont fait. Au niveau francophone, je souhaite m'impliquer, d'autant que la nouvelle proposition semble plus orientée autour de projets d'enseignement et de recueils de références pour définir les enseignemens si j'ai bien compris, plus que la définition de cursus complets.

J'aimerai/je vais travailler sur les axes suivants :

• organisation du colloque wikipédia et éducation en 2007, ce qui me semble un bon relais pour la wikiversité
• je propose une activité (un projet ?) à mes élèves dans le même sens que le projet que tu proposes à l'INSA. Cette activité prend place dans un enseignement par projets qui démarre lundi prochain.
• il faut que l'on réflechisse à comment et pourquoi utiliser wikipédia dans la classe. Un wikibook b:fr:Wikipédia dans la classe pourrait-il être un espace de travail intéressant ?
• participer à une wikiversité francophone : oui avec le bémol que j'ai de multiples autres occupations qui limitent ma capacité d'intervention.

Cordialement, JmG 08:30, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

En réponse a ton message [1].

En effet, je suis très interressé par le projet Wikiversity. Etant diplomé en droit (maitrise) et encore étudiant en économie, je pense que je pourrais y laisser quelques cours, issu du brassage entre les livres que j'ai lu, les cours que j'ai suivi et mon expérience personelle. J'ai déja l'intention d'organiser une belle 'Faculté de Droit au sein de la wikivesity francophone. Il y a déja des travaux en ce sens sur wikibooks, mais ils sont mal rédigés [2], parcellaires et manquent de liens. Donc tu peux me compter parmi les probables futurs wikiteachers. Cependant, pour moi un cours par trimestre sera un rythme de croisière, car j'ai beaucoup de travail par ailleurs.

Je compte aussi m'investir dans les sysop de la wikiversity francophone. En effet, je souhaite pouvoir être actif dans le développement du projet et prendre part au grandes discussions pour définir l'organisation des enseignements (division des facultés et départements, chapitrage des leçons, ...). En bref, en plus d'accepter d'être wikiteacher, je veux bien être wikidoyen.

N'hésite pas à me contacter. Sainte-Rose 12:22, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Suite à notre discussion

Comme on en a parlé, je suis motivé même si j'ai encore beaucoup de mal à cerner précisément les directives des gens de beta. Mais bon, je me dis que une fois que ca fonctionnera, on implémentera et on verra.

De même, en ce qui concerne le recrutement de nouveaux participants (tu n'aime pas le terme wikiteacher visiblement) je pense qu'une fois que l'on aura une architecture qui fonctionnera, ils viendront petit a petit.

S'agissant du plan type, j'ai surfé sur v:en. J'ai bien vu que le wiki avait un plan qui lui est propre mais je n'ai pas vu de directive claire. par conséquent j'en déduis que ceci est de la compétence de chaque communauté linguistiques et que dès lors c'est un des points qu'il faudra essayer de mettre au point pour l'ouverture de v:fr.

Il y a pas mal d'éléments dont il faudrait je pense discuter, puis creer, avant même l'ouverture de v:fr : mainpage, architecture, monobook, .... Sur quel espaces pourrions nous en discuter afin que des traces restes (pas comme sur IRC) ?ou bien il faudrait créer une page qui résumerait ce que les participant de v:fr font et ont fait. Qu'en pense tu ?

A bientot. Désolé de t'avoir dérangé pendant ton travail (moi je bossais pas cet aprem alors je n'ai pas fais attention au temps). Sainte-Rose 13:53, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Beta Wikiversity

Hello Guillom. I have an account at beta until the beggining, and I hope collaborate at portuguese version. I am just waiting an aproval from 555 to start to translade pages from Wikiversidade. Merci, Slade ^pt.wp 03:09, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

A belated thanks ..

.. for helping to translate my Board election statement. The amount of multilingual activity in Wikimedia never ceases to amaze me, and I think we can do much more to support translation efforts throughout the Foundation. For example, on the technical level, I believe in interfacing with computer-aided translation tools such as the open source utility Omega-T (to make it easier to translate only the changes in the new version of a document), and to build multilingual discussion support into MediaWiki. (I've authored the specifications for LiquidThreads, which is being implemented as a Summer of Code project by David McCabe, and the Multilingual MediaWiki specs, which are going to be coded by Charles Pritchard with support from the University of Bamberg and Wikia.) It would also be neat to support open source machine translation efforts like Apertium, and to integrate those with MediaWiki.

I also believe that the next-generation dictionary, WiktionaryZ, will help with internationalization efforts. On the social level, we need to build organizational structures which take multilinguality into account, i.e. support local chapters, and bring translators into the Foundation-level processes. One final idea I have is to build a translation assignment management system, so we can easily manage and prioritize the translation tasks that need to be done, and notify translators when a document is ready for translation. If you have other ideas for improving and supporting multilinguality in our projects, please let me know at User talk:Eloquence. Again, merci for your translation, and please keep up the great work!--Eloquence 21:24, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Your revert

Guillom, I don't quite understand your revert. Do you participate in the New Languages Subcommittee? Did you at least glance across the request and discussion below the totals line, anyway?

Talk of "consensus" in context of this particular request especially doesn't make sense, when opposers are "allowed" to talk nonsense and hate-talk, unhindered. You'd want to look for consensus in our incubator test-set -- 2000+ articles created (not copied) in just two months.

I understand there's a new procedure of requests approval now. Month ago I was told our request is as good as approved. However, nothing happened. So I thought some moves should be made according to the old procedure.

Guillom, it is just possible that my impressions are unbased, but the situation around the Belarusian language in Wikipedia begins to look quite strange and, frankly, sort of discriminating to me.

On one hand, nobody intervenes with the situation in the existing "alternative version of Belarusian language" WP. Strange but would be okay, though, if all versions of Belarusian language would got the even-handed treatment. And I don't even want to start about the weird preference the blogs-dialect gets over the language actually taught in schools. Is it possible the WP in normative version of Belarusian language is, simply and effectively, being blocked by all sorts of tricks, under the benignly blind eye of powers-that-be? What does all that mean? Yury Tarasievich 09:00, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Padonki test

I beg your pardon for disturb you, but Padonki test, denied by community, is still not deleted in Incubator. The test contains only original research, abusive and humoristic "articles" whithout any encyclpaedic meaning. There are many protest of native speakers of slvaic languages against that: http://incubator.wikimedia.org/wiki/Incubator:Administrators%27_noticeboard. The test is almost inactive, only one teenager fanatic still write there. The test is abusive for many East Slavs, because the abusive words which are used there are indecent in books and encyclopaedias according to Slavic Culture. Are there any procedure to delete denied tests from incubator? --Yaroslav Zolotaryov 00:45, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

Ego and his own

I understand why you unblocked Ego and it's OK for me. However, I am very sceptical about him/her. User is not active Wikipedian even his account on meta is not sockpuppet, because contributing to Meta doesn't make user a Wikipedian (up to this moment, there is no any user "Ego and his own" on English, Serbian, Croatian or Serbi-Croatian Wikipedias nor user wanted to say what is his/her username on other Wikipedias). His/her knowledge of English is good enough to contribute on English Wikipedia. I think that condition listed at the end of the page Requests for new languages/Wikipedia Montenegrin (section "Native speakers", at the bottom of the page) are very clear, including my further explanations. Also, five active Wikipedians and native speakers are reasonable condition for preventing of making small and POV Wikipedia which language differs from Serbian in three words as well as it is the only way to pass present negative voting for opening Montenegrin Wikipedia. Also, look at the conversation between me and Ego inside of that section. Whatever... Tell me if you need explanation in more detail. --Millosh 15:15, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Blocage

Bonjour Guillom,

Desole de te deranger ici, mais j'ai qques problemes avec un admin User:Millosh qui a abuse de ses pouvois en me bloquant sur meta pour promouvoir ses POV ethniques.

Voici le block log: Special:Log/block, mon block est celui du 16:48, 14 November 2006.

Je suis plutot active sur en.wiki et ro.wiki, et je suis intervenu sur meta.wiki pour corriger un certain nombre d'inexactitudes promues par Millosh dans cette proposition de politique wikipedia: Wikimedia projects are not for nation-building. J'ai corrige les donnees et j'ai laisse une message sur la page de talk. Millosh m'a menace, et ensuite m'a bloque en me qualifiant de "POV pusher vandal". Cependant, une partie de mes propositions a ete prise en compte, sous la pression d'un autre editeur.

Probleme 1 (moins important): Millosh a did m'avoir bloque pour 1 jour. 2 sont passes, et je suis toujours bloque.

Probleme 2 (super-important): Millosh utilise ses pouvoirs d'administrateur pour promouvoir ses POV:

1. C'est la premiere fois que je suis bloque sur wikipedia
2. Je ne parle ici que d'un sujet que je connais bien, celui de la langue Moldave. Je pense qu'une bonne source d'information sur le sujet est l'article en:Moldovan language. J'ai peu participe a sa version courante, ce qui garantit, en un sens, une certaine independance.
3. J'ai demande (apres blocage), un avis a un admin de en.wiki. Voici le message qu'il a envoye a Millosh, et que je prends comme une garantie de bonne foi User talk:Millosh#The blocking of Dpotop.

Pour conclure: peux-tu me debloquer et assurer (par une discution avec Millosh) que ce genre d'incident n'arrive plus?

Cordialement, Dpotop 16 novembre 2006 à 12:13 (CET)

Pour info: Je travaille plutot sur en.wiki et ro.wiki, sous le meme peudonime Dpotop. Ces jours-ci, je regarde aussi mon compte meta, du meme nom.

Oppose on election

Hi Guillom: I don't like controverse sentences about some Wikimedia projects (especially on chat - #wikimedia -). A steward IMHO "works" with passion and not with several critics (in Italian we call them as "fuffa"). I hope that I'm wrong. However, good luck for the election. Excuse for my English. Bye! --Leoman3000 22:23, 1 December 2006 (UTC) and Tooby 22:26, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

If you're talking about the time I said I didn't like the it:wikipedia logo for Halloween, I deeply, humbly and sincerely apologize. I have never meant to hurt anyone's feelings. I was just giving my opinion ; sometimes the IRC chat makes words harder than what people think and would say on wiki. Please believe me when I say I respect people from Italian projects as much as from all projects. Again, sorry if you felt hurt. guillom 17:59, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

hey...

Salut Guillaume,
vu que tu es très actif sur méta, je pense que tu dois pouvoir m'aider (enfin, aider n'est pas le mot qui convient, mais pas grave ^^). Donc en gros voilà : je ne passe pas régulièrement sur méta et malheureusement on n'a pas (encore ?) de liste de suivi interprojet, donc je suis toujours au courant quelques jours trop tard quand il y a des besoins d'aide ou de traductions, alors que j'ai à la fois le temps et la compétence pour traduire un peu tout et n'importe quoi depuis l'anglais. Donc toi qui est souvent, ici, est-ce que tu voudrais bien me faire un p'tit signe sur ma page francophone lorsque ma contribution pourrait être utile ? (enfin, si tes futures activités de stewart t'en laissent le temps ^^). évidemment, tu peux me répondre non !

Speedy deletion of pages moved to MediaWiki.org

Hello. I see you have imported many pages from meta to mediawiki.org and you have tagged these pages for speedy deletion on meta. For the moment I haven't deleted them because they don't meet meta SD criteria. I think it would be better to create a common RfD for all these pages. guillom 10:30, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Hi Guillom - I'm not all that fussed about what happens with those pages - I was just flagging them as unneeded, and there is no direct correlation to them on MW.org so a soft-redirect is not suitable. Please feel free to put them through whatever process you like. --HappyDog 16:37, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Possible abuse by admin

Hi, i would like to ask to review the actions and contributions of user:Jayjg he frequently makes controversial edits which is his right but then deals with resulting edit wars in a disruptive and abusive manner. If his controversial edits get reverted he will attempt to harass editors who reverting. He treats his admin priviliges as if they meant he is above every and any rule or policy. He will deal with any opposing POV with brute force, auto reverting, blocking instead of discussion. He violates the following guide on adminship:

"Adminship is not diplomatic immunity Every administrator must keep in mind that admins are servants of Wikipedia as a whole. This means that all policies apply to admins just as they do to any user. Admins can be blocked, stripped of admin powers, or banned. Admins must follow all Wikipedia policies, such as the three-revert rule, and uphold consensus and a neutral point of view." I ask you to keep a close eye on him and prevent any future abuse and edit warring. Especially abusive edit warring using administrative tools provided to him for fighting vandals, not POV battles.

Merci

My RfA

Hello Guillom. Thanks for voting in my request; I don't really want to pressure you to changing your mind, but way less than half of my edits are welcoming users. 102 out of 234 for a start is quite a bit less than half, and many of those are warning users with {{subst:test}} ([3], [4], [5], [6] are just some.) In this way, I've tagged many articles to be deleted (Abc, Bill Daniel (director, photographer), ARTICLE tag, Disaster Recovery Plan, Erik Fitzpatrick, Je teste, and images File:FigHida01.jpg, File:Immagine 1460.jpg, File:Immagine 1461.jpg are some I have tagged). This probably counts for the lowish edit count. I hope you don't mind me leaving you this message, and I hope you will reconsider your vote. Thank you. --Majorly 15:09, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

collected diffs

Hi Guillom, as promised, here are my collected evidence, I also had a long talk with Effeietsanders, you can contact him if you want to know anything about the user's ar.wiki situation.

• user was banned indef on ar.wiki for trolling, as soon as he was, he moved all his stuff to meta, then he posted to 5 admin pages about his ban, here (calling us fools), here, here ,here and here ,when some admins ignored him he added wiki break notice to their pages here and here (If they didnt answer me they must be on wikibreak).

• User is infatuated with sockpuppets, he keeps long lists of supposed sockpuppets, and moved off his unsubstantiated list of people he keeps tabs on here. He also accused ar.wiki users on meta as he no longer can do that on ar.wiki here and here.

• He keeps posting internal ar.wiki stuff here on meta, some users came back inquiring about why do we post AfD and Talk pages (calling us idiots while posting) and RfA links on meta. --Shipmaster 22:26, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

if what you're saying is good, i should be banned here. i think Guillom is interested in knowing the reason of my ban, i.e., what happened in ar wi to justify it. what policy other than ignore all rules? --Azdiyy 22:56, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Hmpfh

Hi Guillom,

I just need to make something clear about the matter.

I am not complaining about anything. I don't need to. What you have done does not affect me in any way. What i reminded you about was a mistake and i brought it to your attention so that it would not happen again and upset anyone in the future.

As long as the policies are clear (10 support votes and the monitoring of the bot for a limited period by a bureaucrat for a non-interwiki bot and strictly %75 for a RFA to succeed), it does not matter what the votes are (which is not the best way for a wiki to function, but it is the current way).

And about the bureaucratship, i told you what i think about the elections. It does not mean that i am deciding who will get elected and when. Everyone is free to self nom any time. You clearly misunderstood what i told you about this detail.

The moment that you understand that the first situation did not involve a decision, but the second one did (which should have complied with the policy), you will see that i'm right.

1. débloquer les comptes nap:Special:Contributions/Zyxwvut-Bot et nap:Special:Contributions/Hégésippe (en indiquant par exemple : « avant renommage en User:Usurpated account », pour que ce marquage ne reste pas comme une sorte de « marque d'infâmie ») ;
2. supprimer les pages nap:Utente:Zyxwvut-Bot, nap:Discussioni utente:Zyxwvut-Bot, nap:Utente:Hégésippe, nap:Discussioni utente:Hégésippe ;
3. renommer les deux comptes usurpés puis les bloquer avec le nouveau nom ;

Thank you for the reply! I've read over your entire presentation, cover-to-cover, and seem to have more questions now then I have answers. You talk about requiring each project to have a color theme, what color would wikibooks use? I don't want to start making a logo now, only to find out later that the foundation has changed our color palette. That same thing is what stopped the logo selection process last time. Also, you are encouraging the logos to be unique and distinct? Should there be no unifying theme with the rest of the foundation? Should the Wikibooks logo vote wait for your report to go to the board before we start making decisions? I'll post a little status update on the logo discussion page about this, and I'll be waiting for your reply. --Whiteknight (meta) (Books) 16:34, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Hey Guillom, I just wanted to let you know that we've started the logo selection process for wikibooks and wikijunior at Wikibooks/Logo and Wikijunior/Logo, respectively. I would love to get your input on it. I would also like your help in contacting graphic artists to submit logos. --Whiteknight (meta) (Books) 16:39, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Checkuser verification

Dear Sir,

I'm asking help to some stewards because is urgent.

A group of users (friends) of Portuguese Wikipédia bring more illiberal policies regarding an non free wikipédia without a preoccupation with a environmental and social education.

This group of users (always the same) and some administrators propose and vote systematically to erase some pages with a total absence of knowledge about the subject, some of the articles with a high importance to the community. They have a chain of contacts to promote their vote and their contacts (friends) vote without common sense, reasoning, good judgment, brains or sagacity; They vote against the person and not against the article.

Less obvious for know, but perhaps as consequential over the long term, is a less participation of some users who TRY CONTRIBUTE to this projects with articles.

Because of this behavior from this group, I decide do not agree with their conduct and I write my point of view in there discussion pages (with total education) I have been blocked for suspicion of being a sock puppet after a checkuser. I know I am not a sockpuppet, so is impossible the checkuser be positive.

A several of times I and other users asked for a checkuser to my account, always reject for the “group of users”. But know, the “group of users” decide make the “checkuser”, it is strange and uncommon. Principally after reject my checkuser proposal to a ckecuser, They the ask a “checkuser” (2 days after) - strange? They admit in their discussion pages, they make a checkuser and the checkuser was negative… Know the new check user is positive. Is impossible. I know that.

All I ask to wikimédia foundation is that an administrator check the merits of the block. Please, verify the checkuser. Send me the results by email, because is impossible this result.

I think these groups (with administrators) are trying making a fraud to eliminate my participation. Put yourself in my shoes and imagine the frustration.

– The other user

– Me

[http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:CheckUser/Pedidos_de_verifica%C3%A7%C3%A3o&oldid=7251137 – The checkuser rejected by “the group of users”]

– The same checkuser approved by “the group of users”

Sincerely,

Rui Resende

Portugal

P.S. The checkuser was made by a proponent's friend, after a stranger message ask him to see the email and after they reject the same checkuser request two days ago. Very strange.

P.P.S. PLEASE REPLY:

1-Did I ever been Check'edUser?

2-How many times? When?

3-Who made the checkuser?

4-Conclusions for the checkusers?

5-Can you send me the logs of this checkuser by email?

I'm deeply sorry if I shocked any of you. I am really upset about this canvassing and harassment from many users from ja:wp towards Aphaia, who I consider one of the most devoted people to Wikimedia. And a little group of users is almighty only because the majority of Wikimedia community doesn't speak japanese. Now they're exporting their hate to meta. My words were badly chosen, but I still consider this canvassing/harassment is extraordinarily unfair to Aphaia. guillom 09:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Well I believe what happened in Aphaia's is regretful because wikimedia has a strong policy against Canvassing and Personal Attacks and Aphaia's Elections became a battle-ground of just that and what Guillom said was taken out of context cause it wasn't meant as a racist remark but more of "out of anger" remark and since he has apologized about it above, I believe we should leave it at that ..--Cometstyles 16:56, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

To whom may feel concerned

I have apologized right above, but it seems it is not clear enough, so here is another statement.

• I was really shocked by comments from users from ja:wp against Aphaia.
• I was really shocked that nobody dared at least ask them to stop personal attacks.
• I voted to support Aphaia and expressed some concerns in my vote comment.
• At that time I had not commented any of the "oppose" votes to avoid conflict.
• Someone came to comment my vote, and that added to many unfair comments towards Aphaia made me temporarily upset.
• I felt harassed by a group of ja:wp users and removed this comment using badly chosen words in the edit summary.
• I deeply respect Japanese people as much as everybody else, allegations of racism are simply ridiculous.
• I apologize once again for my badly chosen words.

I do honor you for your sincere apology about the words -- it's what I would like to have. To be fair, I must confess I also feel our manners in that vote were far from civil and your anger itself could be justified.--Kareha 14:57, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Guillom. I've created another version of that image, Image:OTRS Wikimedia 2.svg which has the white space removed and I was wondering if you wanted to use that as a replacement. Thanks, Mønobi 20:59, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah, okay. Wasn't aware of that visual guideline. Thanks, Mønobi 03:07, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

I sent you an e-mail a few weeks ago. Shall I resend it? John Reaves (talk) 23:15, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

About confirmation of Aphaia

Do you know there is canvassing against Aphaia going on at [10]? I think those who got involved with this canvassing should be banned. --Oblivion 07:47, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

OTRS

Salut Guillom,

Après de longs mois d'absence totale de wikipedia, je pensais me réinvestir un peu plus dans le projet, aussi en contribuant à l'OTRS. D'où ma question : quelle est la procédure à suivre pour postuler aux participants OTRS ? merci d'avance, --Markov 15:17, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

In case you hadn't heard

Thought you might have a thought to share about this: Proposals for closing projects/Closure of Beta Wikiversity.

BTW, we burned the horns off the little goats today... pics coming to commons soon! --SB_Johnny|^talk|_books 18:16, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
