Re: Al-KindiThanks for pointing out the transliteration in al-Kindi, I can't believe I missed that! I wasn't sure whether it was rude to change the barnstar, so when I found out it was the wrong one I figured I should leave it be :-P Alexander.Hainy 13:09, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
My RFAHey, thanks so much for supporting my recent RFA. A number of editors considered that I wasn't ready for the mop yet and unfortunately the RFA did not succeed (69/26/11). There are a number of areas which I will be working on (including changing my username) in the next few months in order to allay the fears of those who opposed my election to administrator. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you sincerely for your support over the past week. I've been blown away by the level of interest taken in my RFA and appreciate the time and energy dedicated by all the editors who have contributed to it, support, oppose and neutral alike. I hope to bump into you again soon and look forward to serving you and Wikipedia in any way I can. Cheers!

Barnstar!Thank you very much! I very much enjoy contributing here with or without barnstars, but it's nice to get one. :) --Delirium 15:39, 12 January 2007 (UTC) Al-Kindi peer reviewHi, just wanted to say thankyou for your suggestions on the peer review of al-Kindi. I have implemented a number of them in the article, and I will be looking into how to include his major accomplishments in the lead section per your recommendation. Thanks again, keep contributing!

However, if none show up as members within 48 (12:19GMT - 1/18/2007) hours, then I guess the project page must go. - Qasamaan 12:22, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Photo of St. George MonasteryHello, I am Hovic from Syria. I congratulate you on the great work you are doing in improving Wikipedia articles related to Syrian archaeological and historical sites, it is a great addition to the world-wide known respected online encyclopedia. Through my surf in wikipedia, I accidentally got to the article about St. George monastery, where I found a picture, which is taken from my album http://www.flickr.com/photos/syrialooks, or from my blog http://syrialooks.blogspot.com, without mentioning the source of photo. It would be beautiful to back-link the photo to one of it's original sites. I wish you more of courage and enthusiasm to continue your thankful work. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hovalp (talk • contribs)
Other Castle in SyriaHello, you are right the photo mentioned was in discussion. Thanks for the change you made. As to new articles, I suggest creating pages for Najm castle (north-east Aleppo by 120km, on banks of Euphrates), Misyaf castle (in town of Misyaf), citadel of Aleppo. If you write articles on these places, I have photos of them in my www.flickr.com/photos/200000 account or blog. Feel free to use some of them. I am continuing my journey in Syria. Soon new castles and new destinations pictures will be added. Approximately every month I go to 2-3 places, on weekends. My friend accompany me in travels. His site is http://syalp.blogspot.com.Hovic. P.S. I am new to Wikipedia, and don't know how it works. I am not HTML or web expert, but I can use fairly some applications. For opening blogspot.com pages in banned countries, try www.inblogs.net or www.pkblogs.com —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hovalp (talk • contribs)
The photos of my albumsHello Anas, I clearly mentioned that I changed the "all rights reserved" to "some right reserved" which coincides with Creative Commons ShareAlike 2.0 (2.5), I didn't see any difference between two by the way. I even included the link of Creative Commons' site page that states my license category. Hope you enjoy your time :) See you. Hovic 21:32, 18 January 2007 (UTC) Peer review of Prince Sadruddin Aga KhanHi Anas. I read the valuable feedback that you provided in the Al-Kindi peer review, and I thought I might interest you in looking at Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan. I would really appreciate if you would take the time to read the article and provide your comments at the article's peer review page. Kind regards Cimm[talk] 02:14, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
FACHello again Anas! I thought I would let you know that I have just nominated the Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan article as a Featured Article candidate. The feedback and encouragement from you and the other reviewers is what motivated the nomination. Thank you again for all your support! Cimm[talk] 00:03, 25 January 2007 (UTC) Anas - thank you for your support in pushing this article all the way to FA status! Best, Cimm[talk] 11:45, 9 February 2007 (UTC) Excellent User Page Award
LanguageHello Anas! How are you? I wanted to ask you, since you are Arabic language native speaker, about one language issue. We have a small edit war on As Salif tiny article on how to sort it in categorization. Should As Salif be sorted under A or under S ? Thank you very much, btw why you don't wish to be an administrator in future? - Darwinek 14:40, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

MarmarītāGreetings. While I do speak the language, I can't read it. But what you wrote was off by one letter; you wrote Marmarītā but its Marmarīthā in Syriac. the th part sounds like the word thinking.

I would appreciate extremely yor help on Egyptian films. I am attmepting to doucment every country and am currently on A Argentina. Category:Argentine films. SeeWikipedia:WikiProject Films/List of films without article/List of missing Egyptian Films I haven't got around for researhcing them yet Ernst Stavro Blofeld 16:45, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
I can see you produce work of a very high quality. if you could add as many Egyptian films as you can from that Egyptian actresses filmo. that would be terrific -less for me to add for the missing Egyptian film articles. Even if you just set up the stubs using info from imdb for any missing egyptian films it sets them up ready for development -I'm sure there are many Egyptian usrs who have a knowledge of the films.

Good stuff. and welcome. I'll ask my Greek-Austrian Wiki Film friend Hoverfish to welcome you officially. Yes the lists are the framework for everything.

Ernst Stavro Blofeld 20:04, 31 January 2007 (UTC) GreetingsHi Anas, Sorirart Biro'aitak. Good job you are doing in Egyptian films! The only thing that doesn't work (in my PC at least) is the Arabic characters in the infobox. It's strange, because in the main article they appear quite ok. Not that I know any Arabic myself (the above greeting I just copied - I hope it's correct). The only word I know is "shokran". A good old friend from New Mexico has leared Arabic and travels often to Egypt. Enjoy your edits and if you need any help, ask any time. Hoverfish Talk 21:42, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
RequestsI have two Omar Sharif Egyptian film requests both from 1960Hobi al-wahid (My Only Love) (1960) and Esha'a hob (Rumor of Love) (1960).

I set up a quick stub for Hobi al-wahid the poster enticed me sorry!- However I see what you mean about imdb not being a very good source for Egyptian film- very poor actually. Trusting to Omar Sahrif's filmography it was 1960 not 1961 as imdb suggests? If you could add the plot and arabic details when you have finished your current task and any other genre categories that would be great Ernst Stavro Blofeld 11:56, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

My RfAHey Anas Salloum, I just would like to thank you for your support in my recent request for adminship, which passed with a final tally of 54/13/11. I appreciate the trust expressed by members of the community, and will do my best to uphold it. Naturally, I am still becoming accustomed to using the new tools, so if you have suggestions or feedback, or need anything please let me know. - Gilliam 20:57, 5 February 2007 (UTC) I am glad, tooHi my dear Anas, I was not here in the last 3 weeks because I am a university student and as you know the term exams were in January. I am now back. Many things changed for better during my short absence. Faten Hamama was awarded GA status. (Congratulations.) You joined WikiProject Egypt (Welcome with us.) Portal:Egypt was created. The donation banner was finally removed. Thank you for asking about me. See you. --Meno25 04:04, 6 February 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for February 5th, 2007.

Arabic translation of Milestone toolHey Anas, sorry for the late reply, I was been busy with some other things outside Wikipedia. I've finally uploaded your Arabic translation of the Milestone tool--it's now available at http://tools.wikimedia.de/~tangotango/milestone.php?lang=ar, or via the language selector dropdown menu. I made various fixes to both the tool itself and the template script to support right-to-left languages, so hopefully it looks all right :) If any part of it looks strange at all, please feel free to tell me, and I'll do my best to fix it. You'll notice that some strings--most noticably the "Welcome" heading--are still in English. This is because these strings are stored in a separate "general" language file. I've attached the English version below; if at all possible, can I ask you to translate these into Arabic as well please? $lang['gen_error'] = 'Error'; $lang['gen_db-connect-error'] = 'Could not connect to database server (Zedler may be down); Error was: '; $lang['gen_db-select-error'] = 'Could not select database (The database you selected may be non-existent); Error was: '; $lang['gen_welcome'] = 'Welcome'; $lang['gen_invalid_dbname'] = 'Patently invalid database name'; $lang['gen_nonexistent_wiki'] = 'The project you selected is either non-existent or is not replicated to the toolserver.'; $lang['gen_query_failed'] = 'The SQL query failed with the following error: '; $lang['gen_query_failed_badrowcount'] = 'The SQL query did not return the correct number of rows.'; (Zedler is the name of the database server that stores the toolserver's data.) Thank you! - Tangotango (talk) 11:56, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Since i'm not a native Arabic speaker, i'd appreciate it if you listened to it and gave me your opinion. If you give me your OK, i'll go on and add voice recordings in Arabic to other articles.

If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged. As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use.
