Schleswig

Hi Valentinian, good to see you back, sorry to see you're still experiencing the same kind of POV pushing that made you leave. I hope [1] this was a right action, I just presumed removing that was an accident. If not, please feel free to revert my edit. Regards, Finn Rindahl (talk) 22:26, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

No, that one was fine (and thanks for your other message as well. I'm busy IRL at the moment, and I never got around to answering it.) I just don't feel inclined to waste any more of my life on German nationalists and their Dane-bashing. But I guess these things will just never change, and this is one of the main reasons why Wikipedia will never evolve into anything that can be relied upon for any serious purpose, and why I don't belong on this project anymore.

My experience: the trick is to engage with such people in the right moment. Don't do it just before Monday when you have to work IRL because then the problem editors interfere with other kinds of everyday stress.--Berig (talk) 04:43, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree with that. In many disputes I've had, simply waiting for a few weeks usually did the trick... —Nightstallion 13:21, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

"Slesvig" in the Great Danish Encyclopedia

In Danish wikipedia "(Hertugdømmet) Slesvig" and "Sønderjylland" are described as synonyms. Is it the same in the Great Danish Encyclopedia? If they are, it would be a helpful information for improving German wikipedia.--Ulamm (talk) 16:47, 9 May 2008 (UTC)+Ulamm (talk) 21:55, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Swedish heraldry

Valentinian, I am working on expanding the Swedish heraldry article a bit, and I would greatly appreciate it if you could take another look over the article and help me find appropriate references for inline citations (such as in the lead). Thank you! Wilhelm meis (talk) 00:49, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:DK-Minoritetspartiet-logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:DK-Minoritetspartiet-logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:23, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
