Sakhalin Husky PDF

Hello, sorry for bothering you, but I found this PDF. i believe it is related to the sakhalin husky but I cannot read it because its in russian and google wont translate PDF files. I was wondering if you would be interested.

thank you for your work on the Sakhalin Husky article! SpookMew (talk) 18:11, 2 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a link to what I've translated so far https://docs.google.com/document/d/146PmtIMWvXbBy2oTR5pzqkX0Go8H2OpmnVkqDbjeL70/edit?usp=sharing Annwfwn (talk) 01:39, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! This is really interesting! SpookMew (talk) 01:47, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'd love to, but it may be quite delayed. I'm currently recovering from a brain tumor resection and my vision and energy aren't great. Today is my first time on wikipedia in months! Annwfwn (talk)

Userbox request - September 29, 2023

@JoeNMLC:Greetings, Asking for Userbox - Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub improvement, I cloned {{User WikiProject Buses}} (I'm a great cloner). The wikicode with "pre" is here. This may or may not be correct, and I know zero knowledge about how to install the right way. So I'm asking for your help. Thanks, JoeNMLC (talk) 22:14, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks great, I played with your first box changing "| info-a = {{{info-a|center}}}" to "| info-a = center." You could add a border-s value to change the thickness of the surrounding box and I made the Wiki letter bigger since I'm vision impaired. Example:




  1. The next step is to create a new page entitled "User:JoeNMLC/Userboxes/whatever you wanna call your userbox" and paste your code there.
  2. Then you can link to the page using {{User:JoeNMLC/Userboxes/whatever you named your userbox}}.

    If you get stuck, let me know. Here are your other two boxes just to admire:

Hi Annwfwn, Thanks for doing this request. Two things, the "br" needs to be moved to the left of the word "of"; the two-color shade appears on left side but is transparent on right side of the userbox. Is it Ok to create this as subpage of Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub improvement so it's with the WP instead of me? JoeNMLC (talk) 00:30, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yeah, all those weird spaces. How does it look now? And yes, the project is fine to use, you can use a Wikipedia project, template or a user. Annwfwn (talk) 00:52, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Done - Thanks Annwfwn for your help. Now I will create the Userbox subpage at the wikiproject. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 03:06, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
* Update - I did create Userbox as a Template, not subpage & it's Ok. FYI, those Userbox colors came from "Bubble colors" for Stub-class. Before it's archived, I did copy/paste here of that color spectrum. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 18:39, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks and hope you are well

Thanks for your contributions, attentiveness to detail and proposals worthy of discussion. (Productive editors should get occasional general thanks, in my opinion.) I looked at your user page and saw you were having medical issues. I can relate to that. I hope you are recovering and will be doing well now and in the future.
