Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Auditing Link
While I was at work this morning, I thought to myself that the way I reworded the opening paragraph really called for a link to Auditing. And you beat me to it. Thanks.--Fredrik Coulter 00:04, Mar 2, 2005 (UTC)
History of Religion in the Netherlands
Hi Berek. I am pretty new on Wikipedia. I don't know if i am using the talk page the right way. I also lost my data about Religion in the Netherlands. I wrote more then a thousand words after the Frankish period, and it is all lost. Is it, or can i get it back somewhere? I forgot to log in at first. I am the user that started the page.
Daan
- Hi Daan, I can't seen anything more saved under the Franks in the history of the article, so I'm afraid it's lost. You did fine with the talk page, although we usually add new stuff at the bottom of the page (I'll move this there soon), and we also sign our names using ~~~~ , like this: Berek 6 July 2005 15:43 (UTC)
Elizabeth II renaming (round XXXIV)
You may have noticed *mega sigh* that yet another user has dragged up the lets rename Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom farce, only 9 days after the last vote ended. (What next? A vote every day on the issue next?) I have proposed instead this vote on Talk:Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom page:
That Wikipedia stop wasting time on endless revoting on this goddamned issue and ban votes on this issue from this page for at least six months.
Hopefully this will put this nonsense to bed for at least 6 months. Your (hopefully final) vote would be welcome. FearÉIREANN

Category:Europe
You reverted my edit to remove Category:Scotland from Category:Europe, saying that you see other countries there. You must have mistaken the articles in Category:Europe for the subcategories. Is it 'OK' to get Category:Scotland out of Category:Europe? Thelb'4 15:19, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
