Hi, I'm 20-dude. I have considerable experience with wikis in general and I actually have my own. I'm currently more commited to other wiki's and therefore lack time to make significant contributions to wikipedia. However, as frequent reader of this wonderful site, I promise that if I notice mistakes or missing data, info or links, I'll make productive edits.

The purpose of this account is to meet contacts that could help me with some of my other projects. I'm particularly interested in Wikipedia's "problem users": disruptive editors, vandals, etc. but specially in the ones with tendencies to add "too much unencyclopedic information". I think I can succesfully teach them how to become productive editors.

I'm also looking to meet editors intered in pop-culture (tv, movies, music, sports, fashin, technology, etc), religion or kid's stuff or children education.

My crap

Hello. I found your sandbox in Category:WikiProjects, and because I suppose you don't intend that page to be part of that category I commented out the categorising line in your crapsandbox. Nothing really problematic, but it's one of the quirks that can occur when you copy stuff around the wiki. -- StevenDH (talk) 15:59, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job saving information. One thing you should probably be aware of is that text copied from WP needs to be kept under the GFDL, and there needs to be a way for people to find the edit history so the writers (or their ips) can be credited. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 00:36, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

CHAFLÓN OLMOS, Carlos.

Can you provide a copy of this source, or let us know where we can consult one? I'd like to see what it says about the items for which you cite it. I can't determine even what it is, and can find no online mention of it in book search sites, etc. Dicklyon (talk) 18:14, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

help

{{help}} The wikipedian above, Dicklyion, doesn't stop erasing entire sections of List of works designed with golden ratio. We both want the article to be perfectly sourced, actually I asked for his help first for that reason. He doens't help providing some, and only eliminates mindlessly, even when I'm sure he knows there is a great deal of sources he could be bringing instead. The stuff he is ereasing would be like erasing "Newton enunciated the gravity law[citation needed]. just because, although already pointed, the line doesn't cite a source yet.

He was the most insistive in the section that made less sense to erase, it was sourced before he started his erasings, once I proved that (to my surprise) not only other internet pages use the source, but also other wikipedia related articles, he moved on to other irrational erasings. As you can see in his talk page, I'm not the only one that disagrees with his procedures. He might already broken 3RR, but I'm not sure.

Even though I explained myself I was the first to notice I didn't find the correct template for the copyright license of those scans of part of a book page (2 are big parts of the pages, and one is less than half). The source is in Spanish, but acording to WP:SOURCE I know it is ok, because it's mostly for graphic self expalining material--20-dude (talk) 00:36, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like a dispute. Would you like to try WP:ANI or dispute resolution? BoL (Talk) 04:23, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A translation of Frederik Macody Lund is now amongst us. It might need a cleanup. Have a nice evening. --Orland (talk) 22:25, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good job. I cleaned it up a bit, but some words are still uncertain; I changed Fredrik to Frederick, since that's the only spelling I can find associated with Julius, and it's the more common one I find in books. My friend in Oslo writes: "Macody Lund was from Farsund, close to my home town. My parents grew in Farsund and my father talked a lot about this guy. Husan is a famous building Macody Lund used to live in. Not sure, but maybe he build part of it as well. I will try to get hold of that book." Dicklyon (talk) 22:39, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, and yes. It should have been Frederik all along. My wrong. --Orland (talk) 23:07, 16 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
