Please do not add Canadian lakes to "Lakes of Canada" category, this category has got already a subcategories. Subcategorization is common policy on Wikipedia. -- Darwinek 11:00, 27 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No. They should be added to apropriate categories. New Brunswick, Nunavut etc. should be created. It's not true that categorization is Wikipedia standard. Subcategorization is Wikipedia rule! Look at category "Explorers", you won't find a single article there. All are in subcategories. Subcategorization is more logical, imagine all rivers in the USA in one category, total chaos. Deal with the Wikipedia's rules or the community will eat you alive. This is what I have learned here for being here almost two years. -- Darwinek 16:33, 1 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed you've made some quick stubs for a number of French communes. Note that most regions of France have their own stub category (see the subcategories at

Here is Wikipedia's stance on issues such as this: Manual_of_Style: Disputes_over_style_issues

Fowler says that words ending ...our retain the 'u' when 'ist' is added, but it's not important enough to argue about. And styles have probably changed since Fowler wrote. I give in. CanOfWorms 10:56, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recently, you've added a number of copyrighted, fair use images to templates. For example, [1][2]. Please be aware that per Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria item #9, the use of such images on templates is not permitted. Myself and others have gone through and removed these and other additions by you. Please do not put these images or any other fair use images back on the templates. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. Thanks, --Durin 14:36, 30 April 2007 (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 (18:44, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).[reply]

Hello. This articel has been nominated for deletion. Please see the article and

section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright

infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
