Hey there.

Hey there, Afil. I've gotten about 900 of the Romanian River articles ported over, and I am continuing to port them over as we speak :) Just thought that I would let you know :) Cheers, Razorflame 21:45, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

I believe that there are some help files about this...I will try to dig them up for you :). Please allow me to continue the porting of the articles at my own pace. It would be very helpful if you can deal with the semantics (meaning the disambiguation pages for the rivers that have their name as many seperate rivers (all of the articles with parantheses in their names), as well as any of the redirects that I might have missed and/or iw links) for all of the articles that I have already ported :). That would be very, very helpful :). After you have finished that, you can help me with the porting of the articles. Please make sure that you word them as closely to what I have done already as I believe that to be one of the simplest ways of putting each article. I greatly appreciate the permission that you have given me as the original article writers to port the articles over to this Wikipedia nearly word for word (I just added a sentence or two at the end of each article stating what a tributary is). The reason why I port them over like this is because they are already extremely simple to understand as it is, so there was not much that I could do to simplify it or change the way it was presented. I appreciate all of the word that you have put into each article on the English Wikipedia as that has helped me numerously throughout my time of porting these articles over to this site :).

Here is one of the most helpful help pages that I could dig up: Wikipedia:How to write Simple English articles. Hope this helps :)

Me and a few other users who helped me in the past (6 of the 1,197 articles on here) have created about 1,200 of the romanian river articles so far :). Cheers, Razorflame 22:33, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Reply Copy-paste labelling

I'm very sorry I added the Copy-paste label to your article about the Grindu River. Now I've seen the other article about rivers in Romania I agree with you it was unfair, my mistake. However when I looked at the article in English, it was identical. Never mind, I'll be more carefull next time. Sorry again.Yotcmdr (talk) 20:05, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

Well done!

2,000!

Congratulations on getting Category:Rivers_in_Romania past 2,000 articles! --Gwib ^-(talk)- 20:32, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Very busy?

Very nice job with the creation of the Romanian River articles whilst I have been gone :). It is very helpful to know that someone was continuing along with my efforts since I have been gone. I am now back, and I will start helping you create new river stubs in that category now :). Hope to see you around :). Cheers, Razorflame 23:58, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Another thing, instead of saying that means that it flows into the <insert river name here> could you say this means...? I believe that it sounds more gramatically correct. Cheers, Razorflame 00:07, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Rivers with symbols in their names

Hi there Afil. Can you please create redirects for the river articles with the symbols in their names if they already exist over on the English Wikipedia? I know that sometimes, the naming of the rivers can coincide with the river titles (the redirect page name is an actual river), so you don't have to do those, but for all of the other ones, could you please check if they have a redirect before you move onto the next river that you will create? I have spot checked at least 50 or 60 of the river articles that you have created, and I have already created several redirects here that already existed over on the English Wikipedia. It is to help with the ease of searching for these rivers with symbols in their names :). Cheers, Razorflame 22:22, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Replied on my talk page. Razorflame 22:34, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

sorry you're failing 3s/7o Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 23:58, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

please

review me. Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 19:41, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

please. oh and your RfA sadly failed 1/10. (2 supports were by sockpuppeteers) Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:11, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

It hasn't failed yet. The RfA is still going until someone closes it or if you, Afil, withdraws. – RyanCross (talk) 20:12, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

I never thought of it that way. Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:13, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

please review me now. Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:31, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Ric, please stop asking. This is a form of canvassing. If Afil wants to review you, then s/he will when s/he gets to it. No need to repeatedly ask one editor for reviews. Asking once is enough. Thanks! – RyanCross (talk) 20:35, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Oops, sorry. I'm a failure. Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:36, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

You're not a failure. You just made a simpler mistake. No need to hurt yourself from it. – RyanCross (talk) 20:39, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Oh... *head banging on desk* Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:40, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

For the record. This response has been posted on ShockingHawk talk pageDear Ric. You are obviously not a failure. You are just impatient. I am still going through your contributions to understand what you did and where I have something to say. 20:44, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

I replied at my page. Ric ^{is ShockingHawk} 20:45, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

I can haz stub?

Hi there. Can you please add {{romania-stub}} to all of the Romania river articles that you make here please? Thanks, Razorflame 20:48, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Attributing articles

Hi there. Could you please attribute your articles to the English Wikipedia articles please? Simply add Start stub from [[:en:<name of article at en>]] to your edit summary. Thanks, Razorflame 20:51, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
