The Humungous Image Tagging Project

Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes --Tagishsimon (talk)

Thanks for fixing my grammer mistakes :) [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|^(talk)]] 18:01, Dec 17, 2004 (UTC)

Lewis Carroll

Hi there. I'm not sure why you added [[Category:British fantasy writers|Gaiman, Neil]] to Lewis Carroll. If you want to add Neil Gaiman to that category, add that to the Neil Gaiman article. —MikeX (talk) 13:36, Jan 25, 2005 (UTC)

Sorry - was trying to add everyone from the English Fantasy writers to the British fantasy writers also, by copying and pasting that and changing the name to the appropriate author. Number 0 14:16, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Ah, it all makes sense now ;-). Thanks for your cataloguing work! —MikeX (talk) 12:47, Jan 26, 2005 (UTC)

What I don't understand is why you felt the need to add everyone from Category:English fantasy writers to Category:British fantasy writers in the first place. --Paul A 03:10, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Last time I checked being English makes someone British (whichever definition of British you use), and also something in a subcategory belongs to the parent category. Also if someone wants a list of British fantasy authors a good way to do that is to use the category page, so if you don't include the English authors on that it's incomplete.

Let me put it to you this way: All English fantasy writers are people; should we therefore explicitly declare all the English-fantasy-writer articles to be members of Category:People? --Paul A 03:23, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Okay, apologies if what I did was wrong. However if I did want a full list of British Fantasy authors how would I get it? Number 0 14:17, 1 Feb 2005 (UTC)

If you want a list of British Fantasy authors on a single page, you're probably not going to get it; but you can compile one by looking at the Category:British fantasy writers and then at each of the subcategory pages. It's worth noting, by the way, that if it's important that the list be complete, there are probably better places to look than anywhere on Wikipedia. --Paul A 03:47, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Nabokov's Congeries

Hmmm...I think I got it from here: [1], so since that seems to have the error in it too, I'd recommend either going with your judgement, or just deleting the reference to the stanazas. --Arcadian 13:50, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
