re:Christian Leden

Hi Rosiestep. Sorry to say, but no luck in finding an image of Christian Leden. I suspect that this has to do with the fact that he mostly worked abroad. The fascist aspect might play a role as well. Did a few edits to the article, though. Is it a translation of the Norwegian article? Those rarely have proper sourcing, but I guess you might be able to find the sources necessary. Cheers.

And Happy New Year! Manxruler (talk) 14:15, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Hello Manxruler. No worries about not finding a photo. I had put translation attribution on the article talk page, and what I couldn't find English language references for, I removed. I figured someone who speaks Norwegian can add the politics stuff if they can include the appropriate citations. --Rosiestep (talk) 04:37, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
I'll have a look at the Norwegian sources later, when I find the time. Manxruler (talk) 17:01, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi Rosie. I looked around and dug up a few Norwegian sources. They're now added to the article. If you know of other sources in Norwegian you would like me to have a look at then just give me a nudge. Cheers. Manxruler (talk) 06:57, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks Manxruler for collaborating on this article and expanding it with the Norwegian language material. --Rosiestep (talk) 05:26, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
No problem. It was my pleasure. Interesting character, Leden. Manxruler (talk) 17:29, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

up-dating en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisbon_Treaty

Hello Rosiestep, You kindly welcomed me as a new contributor about a year ago. Now I need help. This concerns the main Wikipedia article on the Lisbon Treaty, which as you know entered into force on 1 December last. The article is excellent, but needed some updating which I was in a position to carry out. I consider that the comment at the beginning requesting up-dating should now be removed, but I do not see how to do this myself, and my repeated suggestion to this effect has been ignored. Further, as there is remarkably little up-to-date and accurate information on the Treaty on Internet, and as I have put my own up-to-date article about it on Internet - http://LisbonTreatyCommentary.wordpress.com - I added this to the references. I've tried twice or three times, but somehow it always gets deleted. I don't see any explanation in the "discussion". Lots of people must be looking for this information at present, and I happen to be able to provide this commentary, which complements the information in the main article. Is it against the rules to put in a reference to a work of one's own?

A Portuguese Wikipedian

Dear Rosiestep,
Thanks to welcome me, for a new (Portuguese) user this is a great surprise. I use to edit articles in the Portuguese Wikipedia, but some times it could be interesting to contribute to others Wiki. I hope that we're going to stay in touch, even if I have an horrible English. Waiting for a new talk. Goodbye. by DBRPOVOA (talk) 22:39, 7 February 2010 (UTC)

Categories

No error, just duplicated categories. For example Cory Bay was in Bays of Qikiqtaaluk Region and Foxe Basin, which is also in Bays of Qikiqtaaluk Region. Or Breakwater Islands was in Islands of Kitikmeot Region and Islands of Coronation Gulf. By the way nice article on an old friend of mine, Richard Condon. I checked and oddly enough I don't seem to have a picture of him but I do have one of his oldest daughter but that's not much use. something lame from CBW 01:12, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

I just moved the Bernard Harbour as the subdivisions of Nunavut template links directly to it. I didn't do the Padlei right now. I saw a couple more places that were name, region, Nunavut and they could probably do with being moved as well. I'll try and look later when I go home. I'm sure that I just saw an article that said "... lake is an uninhabited lake..." but I don't know which one. something lame from CBW 01:45, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Ah, I see you found several of them. something lame from CBW 05:03, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Ahn Trio

I removed the neutrality template from the page for Ahn Trio. There has been no new discussion of the matter since last December. Frankly, the page could use some work, but I don't see anything that a few good faith edits couldn't fix. I see nothing that rises to the level of a neutrality dispute. You've been very helpful before and I wanted to run this by you for your thoughts. Michaelh2001 (talk) 19:57, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Ahn Trio update

I saw your reply to my question about Ahn Trio. I certainly agree that the article could be much better. However, my knowledge of them is limited to merely having seen them in concert and nothing more than "original research".

Some time ago, before I fully understood what Wikipedia was all about, I made some major changes to the Ryan Donowho article. Looking back at the Donowho article recently, I cringed. But, there were major problems with it before I began as well so I was not sure how to proceed. I decided to add several templates to it, asking for improvements.

I have noticed that the "puffery" template is being considered for deletion, so I chose the "peacock" template, as well as the references template. I always try to assume good faith, even in cases like the Ahn Trio page. After all, at the time I thought my edits to the Donowho page were in good faith. Actually, they were made in good faith but on retrospect were puffery. For many editors, there is a learning curve that must be rounded. I got around it and check when I'm not certain about something. Others will get there too. Michaelh2001 (talk) 07:18, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
