Thanks for uploading that image, it's very fascinating. Is that what Chariklo actually looks like, or were you doing it by imagination? If it's round like that I wonder if it'll be classified as a dwarf planet.

Anyway, thanks! --IdLoveOne 18:37, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comment and sorry for the long wait for a reply. It was actually from my imagination; the best pictures of Chariklo are only small dots of white or yellow, so I decided I'd just think something up. It Isn't that round, but it is pretty round. About the dwarf planet thing, I don't think it has achieved a hydrostatic equilibrium, but I don't see why not... --Interchange88 10:23, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Nasa_sedna_art.jpg. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talkpage. Thank you. MECU≈talk 20:02, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I researched a bit, and found this: http://gltrs.grc.nasa.gov/reports/2006/TM-2006-214236.pdf. Hit ctrl+f and type "centaur flyby", or just look for Table XII, which contains flyby dates.

Hello Interchange88;

Roentgenium111 has noticed that your diagram for 10199 Chariklo is off by a factor of two. It should be closer to 130km. We were wondering if you could re-edit it for us? But as a positive the current version is as a great diagram showing what the radius of a typical small dwarf planet like 38628 Huya would look like compared to Pluto and the Moon. Perhaps you could make a new Chariklo diagram and label the old diagram to say "small dwarf planet (225 km, mean radius). -- Kheider (talk) 15:23, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I don't know what you mean. As I see it, it looks just fine--it's well-organized, contains too much information to make a merge feasible, and contains plenty of appropriate references to the source material, which serve to establish its importance.

Hi, you could find all the resources for modifying SVGs here. I will not be able to keep the map updated since I will be busy next week. It would be great if someone else adopts the map by changing colours when needed, it shouldn't take more than 1 minute. --

I will do my best, but in the case that I will not be able to work with the svg, I will replace it with the png.

Objection to the map

I do not believe the map you just placed gives the right idea. It is true that Misurata and Zawiya are constantly under attack, but those attacks are repelled and protesters are only gaining defectors and keeping control of the city, thus it should be marked red, under protester control.

Do you have any sources listing the Russian TOTAL losses throughout the whole siege? Those already claimed is from the assault only. And why do you keep to removing the adds I'm making? Even though I'm giving you sources you keep deleting them and that's not very "free encyclopedia" Imonoz (talk) 15:24, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply] Sorry, I didn't have enough time to go through the whole edit, let me review it one more time. I am not entirely responsible for the content of that article, so there's really no point in nagging me about it. Please, don't get angry or frustrated, it's just that WIkipedia has certain standards — I want to help you. I'm going to go through your edits one at a time: Commander edits - okay Casualties and Strengths: I have found a source for the figure of 439 troops under Schlippenbach. The Russian book "Peter the Great's Unknown War", ISBN 9785765441985 . Perhaps as a compromise between the varying sources, I can put "about 350". That same source also details Russian and Swedish losses, and artillery amounts. That was one of the original sources for the article; apparently someone forgot to put it in/deleted it. • Random style edits - completely unnecessary in most cases; you must be more consistent with numbering and date styles (i.e. "5 October"/"5th of October"/"October 5"). Also keep in mind tone and grammar. • About Torgils Knuttson - okay (watch tone) • Date edits: also largely unnecessary, although I'm not going to change them back because I'm afraid i'd mess them up. • It is, in fact, a "four-day" wait, not "four-days" (although you could say "four days' ") • More bad style edits — why would you deliberately make the grammar worse? Also, number over ten are written in numerals. I do appreciate the date changes, and thanks for reminding me of this article. I hadn't reviewed it in more than a year, and there were a lot of people (probably from Russia or Sweden) who weren't exactly in full command of English when they decided to contribute to this article. I'm more concerned why we're doing it completely after the Russian sources, or shall we say soviet sources? Swedish sources on Swedish strength are way more accurate than Russian sources. If you would go through the talk page, you would notice I send you a link of which pretty much proves that the Swedish force could not be bigger than about 200-300.. Why are you ignoring this? So you have to put 300-439 and all that? Hey, why don't we just go with 1,500-6,000 russians killed instead? As there's Swedish sources claiming that? And I see what you did there, you're completely wrecking this article by doing so, adding the lowest possible casualties for the Russians (which are probably from the Soviet era).. I can't take this serious. How about, as a suggestion, we don't use Soviet/Russian sources on Swedish strengths and casualties? And you don't go by the possible lowest numbers of strengh and casualties for the russians? Imonoz (talk) 20:36, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply] I've had enough of you and your Russophobia, do whatever you want. No source is ever 100% accurate, and Swedish sources are just as accurate as Russian ones. And don't even think about joking about Russia and communism. Interchange88 ☢ 20:43, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply] Hold on.. I was trying to discuss, and I didn't joke about neither Russia or communism. However, you seem to be pretty threatening by saying that. As you said no source is 100% accurate, but for sure one of these are more accurate than the other. And judging from what I showed you on talkp. this the Russian source is just pretty much impossible, and that will automaticly lead us to the casualty number. I'm not looking for some editwars, just trying to be as correct as possible. I won't change anything as long as this discussion keeps on going and none gives. How did the author of the book "Peter the Great" calculate that number? Imonoz (talk) 21:13, 25 August 2012 (UTC)[reply] Wikipedia isn't about researching which source is more correct. That's the source's job. Wikipedia simply takes those sources and reports them, regardless of their perceived accuracy. Read more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:V#What_counts_as_a_reliable_source. Basically, unless it's obviously unreliable, there really shouldn't be a question about how true it is. I'll tell you the truth: I used mostly Russian sources in this article because there are almost no English-language (British, American, etc.) sources, and I am fluent in Russian, not Swedish, so it's easier for me to understand them. I'm going to leave the article to you; I can tell you have an interest in getting down to the facts. Perhaps we could make a section called, "Differing accounts" that say some of the differences in Russian/Swedish sources? Hey, me again. I've come across some detailed work on the siege of Nöteborg by Bengt Nilsson. It seems, I was wrong and you was right. The number of defenders peaked at 'around 440' including the 34 grenadiers. I'm really sorry I bothered you with this, and tried to convince you I was right (when I actually was wrong).. However, here's the link to the work, best part is that it's in English.
