Notice:
- I will reply here. If you ask a question here, please check back regularly to see if I have replied (or add this page to your watchlist). I want my threads to be in the same place, because otherwise the comments will be scattered around and out of context.
- Please feel free to leave messages in languages other than English, although I cannot guarantee that I will understand it unless it's in English, German, French, or Esperanto.
- All my "User talk" pages on other Wikimedia projects redirect to here. This is to ensure that all the messages you people send me are collected in a central place where I can manage and archive them. Also I will receive a "You have new messages" notification on the English Wikipedia this way; I use all the other projects rather rarely. So, please leave your message here.
- If you find any comments of mine insulting or hostile, then you are imagining it. Read the comment again and you will see that I am not being hostile, I am merely stating either logical conclusions or my own opinions openly and directly. If you find that insulting, then I'm sorry.

I have noticed old "mistake" in image Byzantiumforecrusades.PNG and you are last editor of this image so.... Serbia during this time do not exist and name need to be changes with Kingdom of Duklja or only Duklja. Hungary has annexed Croatia which will happen only in 1102 but this is greater problem which can wait +-20 years is not important). --Rjecina (talk) 19:44, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- Not important. Only now I have noticed that this is crusader map on which everything is wrong. Borders of Seljuk Sultanate is from 1087, borders of Serbia is from 1265, borders of Byzantium are from 1087 and borders of Hungary is after 1102.--Rjecina (talk) 19:48, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Bevor Du dir so viel Arbeit machst mit etwas was doch sehr fraglich ist, wäre es mE angebracht, die Autoren auf der Diskussionsseite anzusprechen. Ich halte Deine Änderung (Großschreibung in teilweise Kleinschreibung) für unangebracht und möchte Dich hiermit um Rückänderung bitten. Vielleicht erbarmt sich aber auch jemand und wartet nicht auf Deine Re-Tat. Übrigens: Retat ist besser retard (manchmal).--Heinz-A.Woerding 14:26, 3. Sep. 2008 (CEST)
- Ich finde nicht, dass das Ändern eines Großbuchstabens in einen Kleinbuchstaben "so viel Arbeit" war. Wenn das rückgängig zu machen nicht im Bereich der Möglichkeiten deutscher Wikipedianer liegt, ist es wirklich nicht sehr gut um die deutsche Wikipedia bestellt. — Timwi (talk) 12:31, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I'm 20-dude and I speak Spanish and English is my second language (which I love so much that I only edit the English wikipedia, haha). I was wondering if you could do me a little favor... Can you translate me this to English:
Ilch van der sar, guten tugan ier das track doitch gross volks dan bruten.
Thanks beforehand! And remember, if Spanish ever gives you troble, I'll be happy to return you the favor.--20-dude (talk) 01:32, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
- I don't even know what langauge that is supposed to be. It's certainly not German. It also doesn't yield any Google results, so I'm inclined to think it's probably gibberish. — Timwi (talk) 13:13, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
I thought so. I had the impression it has parts of German and parts of English. I think it is most probably bad German from somebody whose main language is Spanish, whose second language is English and has certain notion of German. It might also be confussing or coded on purpose. But you'd be the expert, what do you think? Do you have any idea of what is this person trying to say?--20-dude (talk) 22:06, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
- As I said, I think it's gibberish. It does not mean anything. He's not trying to say anything, he's just trying to set you off on a fruitless and pointless search for a meaning that doesn't exist. — Timwi (talk) 18:12, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
That makes a lot of sense, actually. Thanks you a lot. --20-dude (talk) 02:08, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
