License tagging for Image:Photome022006.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Photome022006.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:10, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Little context in Georges Poulet (colonial governor)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Georges Poulet (colonial governor), by UnitedStatesian, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Georges Poulet (colonial governor) is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Georges Poulet (colonial governor), please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Georges Poulet (colonial governor) itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 05:31, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Commmunes

I don't know mate I really thoughtthe columns and the map made it more understandable. Perhaps if the map was lowered to 200px it wouldn't overlap. I strongly want to keep the two columns as I'm sure you'll agree. I eventually aim to start all the communes!!! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 15:49, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

"Thanks for the kind words! You do great work, and I'm happy to fill in whatever gaps I can. Won't be long before the woefully under-worked West African history is filled out.

I'm taking a few days off, but when I do, I just got JSTOR access. If you don't, and come across anything you need a pdf of, lemme know.

Ghanna Empire

I appreciate you recent attention to revert vandalism on Ghana Empire. I suspect that article is going to need extra attention in the short term, thanks again. SaltyBoatr 15:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Usman dan Fodio

Hi. Thanks for the work you've been doing on Usman dan Fodio. I see you added a stub tag, but the article doesn't seem to be a stub in my opinion; stubs are short articles in need of expansion, rarely over 250 words. Picaroon (t) 23:31, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Cheikh Anta Diop University

Thanks for removing the tags on Cheikh Anta Diop University. I edited this recently but without the benefit of much reference, as I don't speak French. If you have the time, it could use a look from someone who does. I've made more notes on it under Talk. --71.146.89.17 (talk) 07:30, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

Raziq Faani

I am seriously considering removing the word "Tajik" in the first sentence of the Raziq Faani artilce. Generally ethnicity is not placed in the lead Manual of Style. The ethnicity is unsourced. The sentence already says that he wrote in Persian, which in Kabul is possible for any ethnicity, and writing in Persian is what is important for his notability. --Bejnar (talk) 16:51, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

According to "Afghan Poet Raziq Faani’s Life and Works Celebrated" 2006, he wrote in the variety of Persian known as Dari. It talks about "the poet’s great literary achievements and contributions to the Dari language and literature." --Bejnar (talk) 16:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
I agree that Afghan is the English demonyn for person from Afghanistan. I will remove Tajik in accordance with Wikipedia policy. If it is important it can be placed in the "Career and family" section with appropriate sourcing. --Bejnar (talk) 17:06, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Denonym for Afghanistan

Afghan (synonomous to Pashtun according to Encyclopedia Iranica and Encyclopedia of Islam) is not the only denonym for People of Afghanistan. Afghani and Afghanistani are also denonyms in use:


American Heritage Dictionary - Cite This Source - Share This Af·ghan·i (āf-gān'ē, -gä'nē) Pronunciation Key adj. Of or relating to Afghanistan; Afghan.

n. pl. Af·ghan·is A native or inhabitant of Afghanistan; an Afghan.


WordNet - Cite This Source - Share This afghani

adjective 1. of or relating to or characteristic of Afghanistan or its people

noun 1. the basic unit of money in Afghanistan 2. an Iranian language spoken in Afghanistan and Pakistan; the official language of Afghanistan [syn: Pashto]


WordNet - Cite This Source - Share This afghanistani

adjective 1. of or relating to or characteristic of Afghanistan or its people [syn: Afghani]

noun 1. a native or inhabitant of Afghanistan [syn: Afghan]

WordNet® 3.0, © 2006 by Princeton University.


user: Bejnar (who seems to be an Afghan nationalist after looking at his contribs) claims that Afghan is the only denonym, but after looking at these sources clearly he has lied and tried to push his POVs. HouChangMao (talk) 21:29, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Infobox

Please note. The infobox is not a "Spiritualism" relating to Modern Spiritualism. I think if you follow the academic references given you will see those that relate the spiritualistic activities of marabou to other spiritualistic traditions.

It appears to be a common difficulty for American editors but academics use the term far more widely. --Lucyintheskywithdada (talk) 15:56, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
