Policy in this talk page

Under my personal policy of "easier, simpler, better" I am organizing all entries under the correct user/paragraph and will be deleting old (and only old and out-dated mail, there will be no censorship) from time to time. It´s simply better for me to notice, find, understand and eventually to answer your mail. What can I say? I am simply lazy. Flamarande 21:24, 3 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hippalus - Roman Empire/reorganization

Flamarande, here is how to delete pages that were created by mistake: Wikipedia:Speedy_deletions and Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion.--Hippalus 07:19, 26 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Flamarande, have a look at what is happening on Roman Empire/reorganization. I don't think political junkie6's edits are getting it anywhere - please give your opinion. Cheers,--Hippalus 19:54, 20 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, Flamarande, I'm glad you are planning to invest in Roman Empire/reorganization. I follow the page on my watchlist, and make a contribution now and then, but I haven't got the time or the energy to really write the sections. I'm more of an editor than a writer. I do feel it is an important project though.

Hey, I notice you joined :) Thanks and welcome aboard. As you seem to have a reasonably good reference library for Roman topics, would you mind taking a look at the Biliography and Downloadable Books sections to see if there is anything you might recommend? It would be appeciated, thanks :) - Vedexent 19:07, 8 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Given the Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Classical Rome task force, I was wondering if you knew if there was a Wikiproject for Roman history? I havn't been able to find one. If there isn't one, what about the idea of creating one? It would probably have to work along with the CWTF, but I think that could work out well - but there's more to Roman History than the Military aspects. What do you think? - Vedexent 01:48, 10 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

Re: Historic maps

Sorry for the delay. You asked me how to create the historic maps. I did it with the Generic Mapping Tools and GIMP. But be warned: GMT may seem difficult to use; it is a set of command line tools. You would need to work through the GMT's own tuturial, after that see User:Captain Blood/GMT Example. The colouring and maybe the labeling can be done with Gimp or any other graphics program. Good luck --Captain Blood 17:10, 7 May 2006 (UTC) PS: if you have questions, it was right to contact me at de:User:Captain Blood, I am more often there than here. --Captain Blood 17:13, 7 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Military history WikiProject Newsletter - Issue II

The April 2006 issue of the project newsletter is now out. You may read this issue or change the format in which future issues will be delivered to you by following the link. Thanks. Kirill Lokshin 18:39, 30 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Kirill Lokshinin - Re: Commons

Yeah, there's almost no cleanup going on there; I suspect it's because all of the community structures like WikiProjects don't really work on what's basically an image database.

In any case, my hands are pretty full doing stuff here, so I'll leave the Commons categories up to you; feel free to do whatever you think will be a better way of organizing things. Kirill Lokshin 17:03, 2 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
