Plame Timeline Work

User:Lawnorder - Hi! Sorry for the head bumping... I stopped editing as soon as I saw someone else was doing it. But I may have messed you up. Where did 2004 and 2005 end up ? I have a backup of it on my PC if you need it..

Nevermind, it looks great! Jules

Fair Use Issue

DRolfe 00:42, 22 Jul 2005 (PDT) - Hi. I want to politely address a problem with the way you contribute to this wiki. Much of the prolific work that you do on this site is wholesale copying-pasting from other wikis, consistently without attribution. I want to remind or inform you that this is unlawful (it's copyright infringement) given the terms of the license that you implicitly accept by submitting copied (and even modified) text here under the GFDL. For more information see here for your obligations when you copy from SourceWatch and also here for your obligations when you copy from Wikipedia. At the risk of discouraging you from reading those two pages sincerely I will summarize: You must attribute material that you use whole or in part from other GFDL wikis. If you look through my contributions over the couple days you'll see a number of "your" pages where I have added attribution. Please consider simply copying the attribution code that I've use in your future endeavours. The materials from Wikipedia and SourceWatch are not in the public domain, and as such, you only have permission to use them when you provide attribution.

Witness your own website:

Fair Use

If you wish to download and distribute art from here, we only ask that you give attribution to the site URL. The content and artwork are free to use and distribute with that provision.

Thanks for your time. I'll watch for questions or comments. Here's an example of attribution that you can keep handy...

References

This article uses material from the Wikipedia article "Seymour Hersh". Unless this article is re-written from scratch it must include this citation (See Wikipedia:Copyrights).

Thanks for the compliment. Trying to do a little something every day.

question

--Lemuel 16:01, 26 Jul 2005 (PDT) See that new entry about Canada a few change items down? Um...can we...get rid of that somehow? That's not a cool thing to have on here, but I don't know the proper way to wipe out a whole article.

The Bomb Canada Debacle

America a great nation because individual Americans have worked insanely hard to develop their natural abilities. The American people have demonstrated to the world that freedom and achievement are a matched set. The United States dominates in technology, science, higher education, the arts, and in protecting the oppressed of the world. The USA is a strong country because of individual achievement. If America keeps emphasizing personal responsibility and discipline, it will get even stronger. If it doesn't, the specter of a decadent Western Europe beckons.

What makes this so retarded is this:

US got 103 gold medals according to Truth Revealed
Canada got 12
US population 300 million
Canadian population 30 million.
Gold medals per 30 million capita:
- US: 10.3
- Canada: 12
- Australia: 75

Therefore, if gold medals are a measure of the relative merits of Nations' governments, Canada is better than the US, China, and Russia, second only to Australia. Canadians are therefore more "motivated and disciplined [and] can succeed in a huge way" when compared to Americans.

Bill stub articles and templates

I just noticed the stub article you set up at C110 S 1. On the Congressional Committees Project mailing list, we just settled on a slightly different naming scheme for bills, but we haven't really implemented it yet. I'm also working on a script for automatically making bill stub pages by importing info from thomas.gov -- the page I've set up to use as a target format is H.R. 1-110. It's probably best not to make pages using that naming convention for the time being, as my script may overwrite them.

We also had the idea of making a separate page for the text of each bill, and replacing the text as the bill changes, so we could use MediaWiki's version tracking and diff'ing to track the changes.

I also noticed that you're trying to write conditional templates. This version of MediaWiki doesn't support that (or parameter defaults, or expressions, or practically anything else). I've asked Centerfielder to upgrade the site, and he said he was working on it, but that was several months ago; I guess he's been busy with tagging-related stuff. —Abou Ben Adhem 12:29, 13 January 2007 (PST)
