User talk:Tsja
Hallo Jan-Willem! Je bent hier lekker bezig Nederland in te kleuren, zie ik. Zou je dezelfde informatie misschien ook, al is het eerst in het Engels, op de Nederlandse Wikipedia willen zetten? Die loopt namelijk nog helemaal niet lekker. Misschien wil je anderen Nederlanders vragen daarop mee te doen? Ik werk zelf ook op beide versies mee. Alvast bedankt! --Thea Kemper
I thought I would just pass on a thought I had while doing 1600-?? the last few days, as I see you've picked up on 1 AD-??. In the timeline at the top that reads:
1600 1601 1602 1603 1604 1605 1606 1607 1608 1609 1610
(Or whatever set of years one is using) I'm thinking that the years surrounding the bold date should be the preceding five and the following five, rather than just the year placed within its decade, as seems to have been done sporadically so far.
My reasoning is:
1. It makes it easier to explore around the year within its context, and not have to worry about arbitrary decade boundaries (as one would have with years ending in "0" or "9").
2. If one is hopping pages year-by-year forwards or backwards, the link for the next page will appear underneath the mouse pointer when the link for the current year runs. If you're not sure what I mean, go to 1620, then from there go to 1621, then from 1621 go to 1622, and so on. It makes flipping through the years dead easy.
Do the years you select as you wish, of course, but I thought I'd point out what I was doing up here in the 16th century and see if you thought it a good idea. -- Paul Drye
Sounds like a good idea to me. -- Tsja
After some further thinking and seeing what MichaelTinkler has done to 840 I like this scheme best for the years:
The year and the decade are bold. In that way we can get rid of the the line "39 - decade 30s - 1st century".
I've changed the comma's in the decade line to dashes to make it more logical.
Is Tsja "well" as in "water supply" or as in "health/good state" or the frequent English interjection "w-e-l-l-l"? Thanks for all your work on chronology, by the way! --MichaelTinkler
No, it's like, "well..." or 'h'm..." It became my internet alias when I was asked for one and couldn't think of a good one. Now I'm stuck with it. --Tsja
- I like the insertion of ellipses into the translation - it makes it all clear! --MichaelTinkler
I like your new template for the years. Bookmarking it now....--Paul Drye
Article Licensing
[edit]Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Main namespace cleanup
[edit]In an effort to clean up the main namespace, I've moved your old main namespace userpage to User:Tsja/old, as there's some edit history you might want to keep. Otherwise just delete it. --fvw* 12:28, 2004 Dec 31 (UTC)
- And I've history merged the relevant parts of the page history with your actual user page. Part of it is still in the /Old subpage, though. Graham87 08:41, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
