Yes, I can read that. Wiki uses UTF-8 so almost all language scripts can be simply copied and pasted in. Let's set watches on each others pages. Welcome to wiki. Rlevse 20:20, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User page

I dropped some userboxes on your userpage. Hope it's okay, feel free to change around. Rlevse 20:25, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki uses its own markup language, it can also use HTML, style sheets, and javascript. Rlevse 02:59, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Someone took off the American flag and inserted this message:

Per the Userbox migration,

This user is proud to be an American.

was moved to

This user is proud to be an American.

Edited the user page, giving it a larger American flag and a rattlesnake (Gadsden) flag. Don't understand the Userbox migration. Only understand that someone took off the flag. William Bailey 04:30, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese speaker

Can you or someone you know make a better translation of the stuff on this page Talk:Yang Huimin? It was done by an automated web site and is obviously not perfect, Rlevse 10:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The text is thankfully simplified. Printed it out to compare the machine translation to the 中国字. William Bailey 15:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Featured articles candidates

Are you familiar with Featured Articles yet? See Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates for candidates and Wikipedia:Featured_articles for actual featured articles. I have two on the nomination list right now. If you're comfortable with taking a look at them and maybe voting on them, let me know. Rlevse 15:07, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments are concise and insightful. You are authoritative especially on anything dealing with Scouting, which is the subject of your Gilwell Park article. The other one shows your value as an editor in helping other users. How does one vote? William Bailey 19:37, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Bhumipol article made FA, but I'm still tweaking Gilwell Park. Rlevse 12:02, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Userbox

They messed with a userbox we both use, so I made a quick one of our own. If you come up with a better design, let me know. Rlevse 02:05, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
