I say we keep [[pferdestärke]] on VfD as we've already got the English equivalent [[Horsepower]] and there's already a German [[de:Pferdestärke]]. It's the author's fault and we shouln't let it waste our time.--[[User:HamYoyo|[[User:HamYoyo|HamYoyo]] [[User talk:HamYoyo|(Talk)]]]] 09:10, Jun 2, 2004 (UTC)
In [[1863]], [[Modest Mussorgsky]] also started writing text and music for an opera based on Flaubert's novel, but he never managed to complete the work.
:Yes, I speek some German, but I don't know physics terminology! Maybe I'll give it a shot.--[[User:HamYoyo|[[User:HamYoyo|HamYoyo]] [[User talk:HamYoyo|(Talk)]]]] 09:21, Jun 2, 2004 (UTC)
For the film score of [[Orson Welles]]' ''[[Citizen Kane]]'', [[Bernard Herrmann]] wrote an aria for the fictional opera ''Salammbô'' performed by Kane's wife.

Thank you for your efforts and reply. No problem with your formatting advise, etc., and copyright questions, I admit I had uploaded one item discovered by THUE as a breach, this was a legitimate error and was immediately rectified. (please delete it). I appreciate such astute observations and critisism, which have compelled me to read several Wikipedia help pages, still trying to get a feel for it. Must be a nightmare tring to police such a bold project. Keep in touch.

== Naval Air Station Whidbey Island ==
If you take a closer look at it, I did not revert your changes. I altered things again to a third format which is a compromise between the abbreviation NAS and the expanded Naval Air Station. It may sound picky but the correct way of naming a naval air station is to put the naval air station part before its name. It's the same with RAF bases which are always RAF ''Base'' never ''Base'' RAF. By way of contrast, if dealing with a USAF AFB the correct way is to put AFB after the name.

hey, I've even put up a more meaningful article which links it now.

Yup, still going! I've done world rankings for every year, almost all the tournaments, and almost all the players, so hopefully the bulk of the work will draw to a close soon. --[[User:Auximines|Auximines]] 09:36, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

the .bmp is fair use as part of the article I'm writing - rather than just leave the "List of Coats of Arms" just a list of images. Mark is a fellow society member, I have asked him for a better, smaller version to use. --[[User:Garryq|garryq]] 12:23, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

:Sorry for the delay in replying to your question. One thing that I do as well as spot checking a user's edits is to click "what links here" on their user page. This will give you a list of pages where they have signed their name. As sysops have the tasks of deleting pages, and dealing with vandals, I often expect to see that they have contributed to VfD or [[WP:VIP|vandalism in progress]]. If you follow those pages, you may well have seen their name in those places already, but if not, the fact those pages are on the "what links here" list can be a good sign that the user is interested in the areas that sysops have most of their abilities. I also check some of the talk pages linked to from the list to see if they have been involved in any conflicts, and if so, how they have dealt with that. The sorts of questions a user is asking or answering on the village pump, or on Wikipedia talk pages can also give you a good idea of how well they understand various aspects of Wikipedia. Again, this is easier to find from "what links here" rather than going through their contributions list. I tend to think that the way a user acts on talk pages may well be a better sign of how they will handle adminship abilities than simply basing it on what sorts of edits they make to articles. Hope that helps. [[User:Angela|Angela]][[user talk:Angela|.]] 04:13, 8 Jun 2004 (UTC)
== Category naming conventions ==
Thanks for your suggestion re: category naming, but honestly, I guess I didn't know where to look to find evidence of these styles, because category-wise, the U.S. State categories (and I have categorized ''way'' more than just a bunch of NYC articles) were a blank slate&mdashthere was nothing there, no guiding structure. I'm indifferent as to naming convention preference (though I do appreciate consistency), but I think the organization I have been setting up within the state and city categories is a very good one. Is there a way to do top-down reorganizing of a category, to change the name and consequently change the category name tag within each article that linked to it? Maybe a bot is the only way...know anyone who can do that one here? Otherwise, I think it's wasted time to go through changing everything that's been done so far article by article if the category names are totally functional, and creating duplicative categories with the "proper" headers is obviously even worse.
I also was wondering if the admins were eventually planning on making the category listings collapsible/expandible—having the capacity to see every article at once within the sub-categories of a given category would obviate disagreements about how specific categorizations should be (i.e., state by state v. undifferentiated national listings of airports). Do you have any info on this? The only FAQ I found on categories wasn't too helpful. [[User:Postdlf|Postdlf]] 2:06 9 June 2004 (UTC)
