User talk:Jose Ramos

Hello Jose, welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian. You can learn more on the how to edit page. The naming conventions and style guide pages are also useful. There is a sandbox which you can use to experiment in. If you have any questions, see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. Angela 18:19, 13 Aug 2003 (UTC)

Hi José! Thanks for the fixes on the UOA article. Good to see you about. :) -- Jonathan Ah Kit 1014 NZST, 18 Aug 2003.

Hi, thanks for noticing that weird sentence in The Birds...I always do stuff like that, write two different sentences and just forget to join them! Adam Bishop 17:45, 25 Aug 2003 (UTC)

I noticed the helpful corrections to bird. One query, do all birds have hollow bones - I'm thinking of the Ostrich and penguins in particular?. I've slightly modified the crepuscular bit, since some nightjars (and owls are much less prepared to fly at dawn and dusk than the US species (eg European and Standard-winged). jimfbleak 05:54, 26 Aug 2003 (UTC)

LOL. I hope you won't feel embarrassed, but basically, except a page I labelled as such, all pictures are from me (and a few from my husband), *but* the tree one :-) That is just fair, as I am no photograph, and no artist in the least. Whilst the author is KQ. It was a present from him, a day I was in despair. It was on my user page for a while, till one day I blanked everything and resisted deleting it and quitting for 2 weeks. It is on my french page now. Thanks :-)

btw, I have been living in Tempe :-) AZ is a gorgious state imho

I moved Ilocano to Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/copyvio. Good catch. Martin 21:29, 18 Sep 2003 (UTC)

"Hear, hear" on your recent remark on the CPUSA talk page. I'm haven't really waded into editing that article, at least not so far, but if you turn out to need to bring in people there who are concerned to keep this an encyclopedia article rather than a tract, feel free to ping me. -- Jmabel 05:58, 12 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Hi. I saw you listed at this Wikipedia page as someone interested in physics. I wonder if you can provide any help with this page: Why 10 dimensions? I am interested in Ramanujan Modular Functions and how they are used in String Theory. JWSchmidt 19:59, 31 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing[edit]

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 1000 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:

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:

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)

Strength of a rope[edit]

Hi. Doesn't look like you've been around for some years, but in case you see this, I'm wondering about your edit at Réaumur saying that a rope is stronger than the sum of the strengths of its strands. Could you tell me your source for that? Thanks. —JerryFriedman (Talk) 02:56, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Soil Association - Editor Required[edit]

Hi there - hope you are well. I noticed from looking at the organic farming page, that you are the original contributor of content there. I am seeking a skilled Wikipedian to review the Soil Association page. As you can see from the history on the page there is much dispute which has led to a page that is simply not fit for purpose. I have been trying to work with Wikipedians on that page to get it altered but am finding it very tricky. I have a COI as an employee of the Soil Association which makes it particularly difficult. I am seeking someone who can come in impartially, who has an interest in the subject matter and make it into a page that is up to date and factually correct. Are you able to help?
