User talk:JoJan/Archive 3Talk pages from July 2005 till December 2005 lots of edits, not an adminHi - I made a list of users who've been around long enough to have made lots of edits but aren't admins. If you're at all interested in becoming an admin, can you please add an '*' immediately before your name in this list? I've suggested folks nominating someone might want to puruse this list, although there is certainly no guarantee anyone will ever look at it. Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 14:22, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC) AdminshipI noticed that you put an asterisk next to your name on RickBlock's list. I would be happy to nominate you for adminship.

Until a more informative tag is provided, it will be listed as {{no source}}. Could you add a better tag to let us know its copyright status? If you made the image yourself, an easy way to deal with this is add {{gfdl}} if you're willing to release it under the GFDL. Alternatively, you could release all rights to it by adding {{NoRightsReserved}}. This would allow anyone to do whatever they wish with your image, without exceptions. However, if it isn't your own image, you need to specify what free license it was distributed under. You can find a list of the tags here. If it was not distributed under a free license, but you claim fair use, add {{fairuse}}. If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the images by posting to my talk page. If you do this, I can tag them for you. Thanks so much, Superm401 | Talk July 4, 2005 03:12 (UTC)

RedWolf 05:29, July 12, 2005 (UTC) Image files from Molecule editorsI didn' fully understand the question you posed me, but I will try to give you some information anyway! You cannot "cut-and-paste" images into Wikipedia pages: you must upload the image file and then link to it from the wiki-code. The file can be uploaded in any format which wikipedia supports (including .jpg and .gif) but we find that .png images work best for chemical diagrams, even if they are somewhat more complicated to produce. Once your diagram is finished, select the Export item in the File menu: this will give you a choice of file formats to choose from. ACD/ChemSketch allows you to export the image directly as a .gif file, or as a .tif file which can be converted into a .png file by most image processing software. If you cannot produce a .png file, do not worry! A .gif image is far far better than no image at all. Once you have saved the image on your hard disk in the chosen file format, you can upload it to wikipedia in the usual way, by clicking on the Upload file link and following the instructions there. Please do not forget to include a copyright tag: chemical diagrams are usually considered copyrightable, and so a tag such as {{GFDL-self}} or {{PD-self}} should be used. Hope this answers your problem, en goede teken! Physchim62 11:02, 13 July 2005 (UTC) Wikipedia:WikiProject GastropodsPlease accept my apologies. I was going through Category:WikiProjects and making sure they displayed in alphabetical order and I noticed a lot of projects which were inactive, and in some cases consisted of one line. I drew an admittedly very arbitrary line and decided any project that hadn't been edited since before June I would mark as inactive. I had meant to place a message on each talk page once I had done so, but my computer crashed around 5pm BST and I've only just got back online. I did not mean to cause offence, and please feel free to remove the template, or let me know and I will do so.

AcorusHi Jo - I took out the links to Acoraceae and Acorales, as they are just redirects back to Acorus (the sole genus in the order). On an aside, the Sweet Flag (Acorus calamus) page needs either some heavy editing or merging with Acorus, as (with the new breakup of Acorus calamus into two or more species), the Sweet Flag page is now no longer about a single species, it is nearly the same as the genus page - MPF 20:50, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Grand Turk an authentic replica of HMS Blandford?You wrote in the article Grand Turk (frigate) that she was built as an authentic replica of HMS Blandford. I followed the career of this vessel, since before the first HH miniseries. And this is not my recollection at all. My recollection is that construction of the Grand Turk began when she was going to be used in a big budget film about the Crusades, that was to star Arnold Schwarznegger. The film was cancelled. The vessel was half-built. The vessel remained half-built until the producers of the HH films acquired it, and completed it, trying to adapt it to look more like a frigate than like a 12 century vessel suitable for a film about the Crusades. If you look at the Grand Turk in the first HH film she doesn't really look like a frigate. The producers could have rented the reproduction of HMS Rose, which is based on a real frigate, as the producers of "Master and Commander" did. Presumably using it would have been too expensive. Do you know where you got the info that she was authentically based on HMS Blandford? -- Geo Swan 13:11, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
Dry "Period" or Dry "Season" for Pachypodia.JoJan, I have a question that maybe you could help figure out. Stoive has suggested that the term "dry" when used to modify a period of time be linked to the Wiki:dry season for Pachypodia. I think it is a strong intuitive move because, as Stoive has observed that the Wiki: dry is meaningless as it is written; whereas the Wiki: dry season is not. Certainly this prolonged period for which Pachypodium species experience without rain could synchronize with a notion of a "Dry Season." See the Wiki: dry season. Apparently (a) there is an oscillating "belt" of both a "Wet" and "Dry" season around the equator that cycles North and South from the Tropic of Cancer to the Tropic of Capricorn. The Wiki: Tropic of Capricorndemonstrates that the Tropic of Capricorn bisects Southern Africa and Madagascar. Also the Wiki states that (b) "local geographical" conditions have a significant affect upon this oscillating belt, which might explain how a "Wet Season" could occur in a xeric, geological landscape. Local conditions are probably influenced by the Oceans (South Atlantic and Indian) and topography (Mountain ranges). The "Wet Season" could be indeed "wet" but slight given this influence. That is, the oceans and the topography minimalize the amount of rainfall, but rainfall occurs nonetheless. Where I am unclear is about a "dry season" as part of this more global explanation of wet/dry cycles. I am clear about the geography of South Africa and Madagascar. It is a xeric landscape for large areas. I am pretty sure without looking at my notes that the shortest dry period or "season" for Pachypodium is about 5-6 months. All and all, this hypothesis that the dry "periods" mentioned in the literature I have read be part a global cycle of wet/dry seasons seems tempting. There is also a pragmatic reason to define "dry" as "dry season." The Wiki: Dryness is not informative; so Stoieve switched it to "[[[dry season | Dry Season]]" so as to give the link meaning. I think that instinct is good too. This way the term "dry" carries a lot more meaning to the reader. Nevertheless, I have some reservations about making this inference: Is this prolonged period that Pachypodia have to endure without rain a "Dry Season" or rather a "Dry period. . . ? (1) Why does none of the literature I have read not make mention of this tropical wave of "dry/wet" seasons. . . ? Its omission in a book like Rapanarivo et al. has me wondering because the authors specifically address a larger context to the habitats of Pachypodium. Yet, this omission might not be such a big deal; too, because I know that Southern Africa is divided into, I believe, an Easterly Winter Wet Season and a Westerly Summer Wet season. I know this climatic geography from studying Haworthia and members of the Mesembryantheum family (e.g. Lithop, Conophytum, etc.) that inhabit the Horn of Africa. Rapanarivo et al. do not mention this large scale continental climatic geography either so, maybe, as authors, they choose not to go that far with the larger context of Pachypodium. (2) Having stated that this "East-Winter-Wet" and "West-Summer-Wet" prevailing continental, climatic geography already exists to my knowledge, the question becomes: "How does this tropical oscillating Wet/Dry cycle from the Tropic of Cancer to the Tropic of Capricorn fit together with the aforementioned known continental pattern, which seems to be more dependent upon the Oceans and Topography than a macro global cycle. Yes it is a "Continental" cycle but not one that effects the whole globe like the el Nino effect off the West coast of South America. I can not answer this question either. (3) Without an explicit reference stating that this tropical "wet/dry" seasonal cycle plays a decided role in Madagascar and Southern Africa, are we not acting presumptively. I mean I am uncomfortable with making a statement that I cannot point to research or documents that state clearly what I am suggesting. I mean, the global, tropical oscillating "wet/dry" season is a compelling conjecture, one that I would like to make, but do we have the authority to make such a claim. . . ? (4) Lastly the amount of wetness and dryness varies greatly for Pachypodium. In Madagascar, the East Central coast is a jungle. Yet to the North, it is xeric. But the South of the island, by far, receives the lest amount of rain. This rainfall pattern is clearly documented. As I spoke earlier, Southern Africa has three zones of overall climate: (a) Easterly Wet Winter; (b) Westerly Wet Summer; and (c) a zone in between the two where rain occurs naturally all year. Pachypodium inhabit all three zones as well as all of Madagascar except the Jungle (hydric) and the more mesic areas. I do not know really what to do here. It is compelling to think of the dry period for Pachypodium as a global phenomenon. It enriches the article with a larger context. But without any direct reference is it not just speculation . . . ?. And if it is speculation, that does not seem not to be proper for Wikipedia. One might might allude to the possibility of this tropical global "wet/dry" seasonal phenomenon as a possibility, but I would not hasten to claim it for truth and fact without a rigorous source. So I am not sure what is best . . .I thought you might have an answer. I have been discussing this subject with Stoive a while ago but forgot to follow up on it. I am doing so now, as I suggested an Administrator might know what is better to conclude. tdwin476 Tim Winchester 19:22, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
I have been unclear apparently. I am sorry. Five species of Pachypodium do reside on the continent of Africa--Pachypodium bispinosum. P. leallii, P. namaquanum, P. saundersii, and P. succulentum--the Type species for the Genus. But your implication is correct; in that the other 20 species are residents of Madagacar. They sufficiently inhabit diverse habitats that vary geographically. I think, but can not be certain, that a contributing factor to the moisture regime is the typhoon season in the Indian Ocean. I wish I had the book that I think that reference is in currently. For Madagascar, I have a pattern but no real marco-climatic cycle that explains the island's weather. As I state above, and I believe I have the geography correct, Southern CONTINENTAL Africa is dicvided into the aforementioned three zones--(a) East-Wet-Winter; (b) West-Wet-Summer; and (c) and intermediate zone. Pachypodia are found in all three locations, I believe. At this point, the more I think about it, it seems more rigorous, despite the loss of richness, to stick with what can be documented. It might be pointed out that a possible "Wet/Dry" Cycle does occurr between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn that could possibly explain the wet/dry "period" that Pachypodium experience. Without a reference; however, it remains a conjecture--a very compelling one. So guess I am with you on the part of staying to the individual habitats and not venturing into a global explanation. Simply the Wiki for "dry" needs to be deleted, unless it can perhaps point to "xeric," rather than link to Dry Season or Dryness. I will inform [[User: Stoive | Stoive] about this correction I plan to make to the afffected articles that link dry months and dry period to dry season.

As this will be a weekend, it will probably also appear on the MainPage. You look like you may be an editor who knows more about this flower than most, so could I ask you to check the associated caption at Wikipedia:Picture of the day/September 4, 2005. -- Solipsist 11:03, 31 August 2005 (UTC) Orchid Genera: Acineta & AeridesThere is a reference in the Acineta genera that there are 15 species contained therein; however, there are actually 16 species listed in the Species section. So, would you happen to know if one the species should not be contained... or if the number should simply state the genera contains 16 species? Also in the Aerides genera there is a 25 vs. 27 mismatch similar to the Acineta numbering mismatch.
Orchid Genus abbreviations, not botanistsIn the latest revision of the Laelia orchid genus "Lindley = abbr. Lindl.: Linnaeus = abbr. L. - already mentioned in the taxobox" I think there is a bit of a disconnect. I was trying to to include both the botanist's abbreviation Lindl. and the actual genus' abbreviation L.. I agree the text-based Lindl. reference should be removed and left in the taxobox... my miss for Laelia. Once some of the other genera stubs get taxoboxes I will move text-based botanist references to the taxobox to be consistent with this practice. Beyond the botanist reference, what I was actually trying to improve was that none of the genera had a reference to the actual genus abbreviations... hence my addition of (abbreviation L.) for Laelia. Do you have a suggestion of where an orchid genus' abbreviation might be placed? Maybe we could start something we could be consistent with, then we could both attack this minor but valuable addition to the multitude of orchid genera. Maybe the orchid genus abbreviation should go in the taxobox, too?... or, Maybe a whole new "List of Orchid Genus Abbreviations" page? Maybe these abbreviations should all be on the Orchid Genera List page? What do you think? {Brett Francis 07:35, 11 September 2005 (UTC)}
Orchid HybridsHave you come across any guidelines for adding Orchid Hybrids to the genus pages? Some genera have naturally occurring hybrids only and others have man-made hybrids. Brett Francis 16:09, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

Greenhood Orchid GenusI started chatting with BerndH about the possible incosistency that the Greenhood genus entry simply should be an alias to an actual Pterostylis genus entry that doesn't exist yet.

(Brett Francis 07:46, 16 September 2005 (UTC))
Divide List of Orchidaceae Genera pageSince the List of Orchidaceae genera page is a long page, I was thinking of splitting this List page into multiple indexed pages. First, I don't know how to do this; second I wanted to chat about it first to see if other long pages like this one get split in similar ways. I'd also like to learn about a more public place a change like this should be floated beyond your talk page. Example: The List of Orchidaceae genera page would contain the same overview text but have links to alphebatized orchid links: List of Orchidaceae genera/A-F List of Orchidaceae genera/G-M List of Orchidaceae genera/N-T List of Orchidaceae genera/U-Z ...which then possess the appropriately divided genera list. Another idea was that the division could be as follows... the page List of Orchidaceae genera would contain the same overview but simply have links to the following pages: Orchidoideae Epidendroideae Apostasioideae Cypripedioideae Vanilloideae ...and these pages would then contain appropriately divided ==List of genera== subsections. Of course this would take some more time and possibly even might be organized as a project... but the existing information would be more logically divided and categorized appropriately. My last thought is... why does this page exist when the Taxonomy_of_the_orchid_family page exists and with a little help checking all the genera in the List page we could reduce redundant entry of genera data in Wikipedia by moving any missing genera from the List page to the Taxonomy page. Thereby reducing the need for any synchronization or mismatches. Thoughts, or other ideas? (Brett Francis 05:50, 22 September 2005 (UTC))

nederlandsHoi, ik heb jouw naam gekregen van Uther SRG, ik had hem een aantal vragen gesteld m.b.t. het editen van Engelstalige artikelen als Engels niet je moedertaal is. Hij vertelde me dat ik niet bang moest zijn en gewoon moest editen, maar dat ik bij jou moest zijn als ik meer informatie wilde. Ik wil nu dus aan jou vragen hoe je het beste engelstalige artikelen kunt aanpassen. Is het heel erg als er spelling- of grammaticale fouten inzitten? Ik heb nog maar weinig toegevoegd aan Wikipedia, mijn belangrijkste bijdrage is over het artikel Carnivora, waar ik de paragraaf Phylogeny heb toegevoegd. Dat stuk lezen geeft je een beeld van mijn kennis van de Engelse taal. Zou je me wat adviesen willen/kunnen geven? Dank je! DaMatriX 12:24, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

As you'll see, I'm going to end the history piece about Pisa. I'm simply translating from the Italian article, plus using some books I have and a bit of Encyclopaedia Britannica. What I could ask you is to check at the end of the process my article and correct my grammar (I'm good English speaker but I doubt about my writing qualities), and also improve it the way you want. Image Tagging Image:Cypripedium.reginae1.gifThanks for uploading Image:Cypripedium.reginae1.gif. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, ie in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{gfdl}} to release it under the GFDL. If you can claim fair use use {{fairuse}}.) See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of image pages you have edited by going to "Your contributions" from your user page and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

The Modern Times ClubI am one of the organisers of The Modern Times Club, the article on which you deleted. We found the original article to be the most accurate representation so far of what the club is, whether on the internet or other media, as befits wikipedia, and as such would request that it be reinstated. I hope this is the correct way to go about this; I have created this wiki account for this sole purpose. As for the comments about not enough context - I'm not sure I understand exactly what more you want, but would be happy to supply any supplementary information to the article. Many thanks, David Piper Wyndham Piper 15:58, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
I've just found your and others' replies to this, many thanks. Although I guess in fact the presence of this article on wikipedia is not of life-or-death importance, it was a very good and precise description (the initial reaction was one of delight at seeing it, completely by surprise, and then chagrin at having it taken away). However, the article makes no claims for the club's importance or significance - and unless this is of specific meaning to wikipedia (I don't understand the phrase 'encyclopedic importance') I don't see why it is particularly relevant. A quick google for "modern times club" should, I would have thought, be enough to satisfy at the very least anyone's doubts as to its existence. And if it exists, shouldn't it be on wikipedia? 212.84.101.41 11:44, 12 September 2006 (UTC) Hello, I'm a bit confused about the deltion of this. Can you explain why it was speedied and why there is voting going on at Talk:The Llama Song? There are also pages that redirect to the deleted page. Thanks, -- JJay 20:34, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
