In the English-language article, I noticed you've added an interwiki link to the French Wikipedia, However, it doesn't lead to an article on David Grossman there. I'd like to help you fix the link; perhaps the name and title are written differently in French? Please check and revise as necessary. Also, you might want to add it to the other language Wikipedias as well. Merci, Deborahjay 22:02, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up:

Thierry, thanks for the update on

our recent war

, nevertheless I chose this task as deserving immediate attention.

You're the first French Wikipedian I've encountered, and I'd be pleased to collaborate with you again (only in the finest sense of the word, of course! :-) Feel free to visit my User page in English (and in French! though it's essentially dormant ;-) -- au revoir, Deborahjay 15:52, 20 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bonjour and welcome to the first WikiProject France newsletter!! It should become a monthly special of our project, but until the next issue, here are some points to consider for the month:

• In an effort to determine the active members from the inactive, all members are asked to simply sign on my special userpage.
• I have slightly rearranged and updated the Project page, putting all the featured lists in collapsible tables. This unclutteres the page and you only have to see them if you want to. Give your feelings at the talk page.
• I have made a
  Wikipedia advert for our project, Image:Qxz-ad108.gif
  , what do you think? Personally I feel the words need improving ...
• There are still
  Template:French commune
  - any help at resolving them would be greatly appreciated.
• What about starting a monthly drive? We currently have no Featured Portals (except for the Basque Portal which really isn't French any way), so how about improving Portal:France??? I don't know what's exactly wrong but the criteria can be seen at Wikipedia:Featured portal criteria.

It doesn't seem like a lot, so I hope we will still have enough problems for nexts months issue. Salut till the next issue,

It's been one high aiming month! The French WikiProject and related pages have been aiming high for Christmas - and have received an equal number of presents in return!

• Featured Portal!!! It passed its Candidacy with 100%. Special thanks go to NYArtsnWords
  and all those that have made this Portal work.
• The Newsletter has made it to a second issue. You can find its page at WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter and its archives at WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter/Archives.
• A new page has been setup (WikiProject France/Links) to provide an index of the Projects/Portals pages (as well as helping newbees). When creating any pages in the Project/Portal namespace, please add them to the index page. This page also give WP:FRANCE members a handy watchlist.
• As like last time, members are asked to renew their memberships at Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Members.
• I will be on holiday when the next issue is meant to come out so could some generous person(s) please do the next issue at Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter.

Well, that's this issue. Au revoir et à bientôt till the next time, ChrisDHDR (18:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).[reply]

I saw your questions at the Reference Desk. Let me know if I can help. (I have email activated.) I live in the Washington DC area, et je parle français au niveau moyen. Peut-être j'apprendrai aussi en vous aidant. OtherDave (talk) 01:16, 5 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

(in English) Thanks for the help proposal. My next question will probably about the US governor position. I would like to write an article about it on the French Wikipedia but I only find a List of current United States governors (same in French WP) and a short paragraph in the Governor article in the English Wikipedia. I think most of position elements between all the US States governors should be closed enough (power,qualifications, elections, relations with State legislature) for a such article.

(in French) Merci pour la proposition d'aide. Ma prochaine question risque probablement de concerner la fonction de gouverneur d'état américain. J'aimerai en rédiger un article sur le Wikipédia en français mais je n'ai trouvé sur le Wikipédia en anglais qu'une Liste des gouverneurs actuels (pareil sur le WP en français) et un court paragraphe dans l'article Governor. Je pense que la plupart de ce qui constitue la fonction (pouvoir, candidatures, élections, relations avec la législature de l'État, etc.) doivent pourtant être suffisamment similaires pour un tel article.}}

Salut, Thierry! Thanks for getting in touch with me on this topic. I'd be glad to pitch in, though it may take me a while; I hope this isn't urgent? I have some ideas on how to elicit content from Hebrew sources (possibly the Clandestine Immigration and Naval Museum in Haifa - it has great pix on the Wikimedia Commons, but no page??), so let's see what turns up. --Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 09:19, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

שָׁלוֹם, No urgency, I just want to improve the article with the full and interesting story of this ship, both on the french and english Wikipedia. Thanks a lot for your help. TCY (talk) 10:07, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One more question, then: the page presently includes the text, "...coastwise trade in the Mediterranean." I find the word coastwise in my Encarta dictionary, which I take to be a directional form parallel to lengthwise, crosswise, etc. So unless this a particular usage in the context of maritime commerce, I'd have written "coastal" (in mainstream

I also had a doubt on this word so I checked in very exhaustive the [grand dictionnaire terminologique], they translate it in french by cabotage means coastal shipping, a ship would not cross an ocean or go to far on blue water. TCY (talk) 14:44, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Thierry,

Thank you for translating the above article that you created at French Wikipedia into English. I haven't cleaned up the grammar yet, but will do when I have a spare moment. It was me that uploaded the picture of the house as it appeared in 1872, which I found when I was doing research into my cousin Harriet Howard (fourth cousin three times removed or something). The modern day image is also very enlightening, however was it the front porch of the house itself, or the gatehouse? Once again thank you very much.

-- role^player 11:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

PS how do you pronounce La Celle-Saint-Cloud? -- role^player 11:03, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Roleplayer

Thanks for correcting my translation which need it. The picture you uploaded shows the north facade, the picture I took yesterday shows the ruins of the central front building, on the south facade where the house main door was. You can also see picture of the whole ruins in 1956 and in 1960 on this website.

For the prununciation, hard for me to explain it in english... Let's try : La (the same sound than in the name Lara or Lafayette / Celle (like sel or selle in french, like (to) sell in english) / Saint (like saint in english but without pronuncing the t) / Cloud (like clou in french or clue in english but not cloud in english). Something like that.

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Setra (disambiguation), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Not a proper disambiguation page; one link to another Wikipedia article, and two external links "disguised" as wikilinks. Dabs should have 3+ wikilinks and few, if any, X-links.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's

Thank you very much for articles in two languages. I've tried to work on the English version a bit and negotiated for a photo in both pages; I hope to do more as time permits. Merci! --Thatnewguy (talk) 17:45, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the correction of my english mistakes. I've heard about Culin when I was a young boy in Normandy. I remembered it after a WE near the landing beaches so I created the article. TCY (talk) 02:21, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since you have asked some questions, on the Reference Desk, about the artworks displayed in the White House, I thought that you might find this article of interest. Deor (talk) 15:48, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
