[recensere] Ioannes and Ioannes (nomen)

What about moving the homines-section from the page Ioannes (nomen) to the discretiva page? We could write the translations of the name and all its variations on the ...(nomen) page and list all "homines" on the discretiva page. (oder sollte das eigentlich schon so gemacht werden, bei Iustinus (nomen) und Iustinus sieht das ja so aus?) ich geh jetzt erstmal schlafen, muss um 5 Uhr wieder aufstehen... --Amphitrite 21:52, 19 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

I read this discussion some time ago and after reading it a second time today, I decided to stay away from all these name-pages, until someone else will find a solution ;-). But actually I like your proposal of having only one main page and all other pages being redirected to this page.
(for example we have at the moment
with a link to Ioannes (nomen) and a link to Iohannes
with a list of "homines"
with a link to Ioannes
with translations of the name into other languages
with a list of "homines"
with a list of "homines"
with a link to Ioannes
and maybe one main page would make it less complicated)

[recensere] New formulas

I just wanted to say that I like the current designs. We sometimes go overboard with borders, flashing lights, etc. These two formulas (non latine and non stipula) look neat, practical and official! Andrew Dalby 13:06, 21 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

Then take no notice of me -- just do what comes naturally! Andrew Dalby 19:59, 21 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
I like the wider margin. Andrew Dalby 19:55, 22 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Thank you!!!!

Thank you so much for what you wrote me. I suppose I was quite rude while saying what I said, and I forgot you have too many work to do here. Sorry!!! :'(. From now on, I'll use that template almost every timeImago:Smile_eye.png.--Le K-li 22:14, 27 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Sorry!!!

Sorry!!! I didn't want to do anything wrong. Well, I guess I'd have to create that new template.--Le K-li 23:53, 27 Februarii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Periodicum?

Cur "periodicum" in pagina de Kalendis Aprilibus? --Alex1011 14:39, 3 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Please

could you check my Latin in Ernestus Kantorowicz, because I added a lot of things. Thank you--Massimo Macconi 20:18, 5 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] thank you very much

I asked you, because I saw that you were inserting the formulas about the level of Latin used in the pages. Ciao e grazie--Massimo Macconi 21:11, 5 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] conservapedia

Tuum exemplum mihi delendum esse videtur quia interea haec pagina in conservapedia elaborata est. Etiam in nostra vicipaedia nonnullae paginae sunt quae primum breviores sunt antequam amplius elaborabuntur. --Alex1011 19:47, 6 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Salve!

Any recommendations on what I should do? Shall I join again with another username? I could do that. Amphytrite 04:52, 8 Martii 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the resources list! It helped a lot. Hopefully this name won't create as much confusion! Agriope 00:10, 9 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Latinitas

I just noticed your -7s on some Russian towns. Actually I think the Latin in these articles was quite good (as good as my average, anyway). I adjusted the mark. OK? Andrew Dalby 21:28, 8 Martii 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I understand now! Fine. Andrew Dalby 11:03, 9 Martii 2007 (UTC)
My feeling about TUGS is that it just isn't Latin (although, by random chance, some of the individual words are Latin!) So I put {{Non latine}} in place of Latinitas: maxcorrigenda. Revert me if you disagree. Andrew Dalby 14:09, 12 Martii 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the Latinitas:pessima! I have added it to TUGS now. Andrew Dalby 12:35, 13 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Nexus carentes

Hab' ich schon gesehen, aber da ich nur in der deutschen Wikipedia suche, weiß ich auch nicht, ob es wirklich keine Interwikilinks gibt ;-) Aber ich denke, dass vor allem viele unserer Namensartikel in eine solche Kategorie fallen würden...--Amphitrite 12:47, 11 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Nice selection of pics on physica electromagnetica

Dear Rolandus, thanks for the nice pics you posted on "Physica electromagnetica" and also about the advice on logging in which I will try out.Rafaelgarcia 00:52, 25 Martii 2007 (UTC)

If I close firefox, then reopen it and then go to my usor page, it indicates I'm logged in but I am not, even if I previously cliked "Tesseram meam inter conventa memento". If then I click on "Conventum concludere" and then "Conventum aperire" I have to reenter the first letter of my name, it autofills the rest and fills in my password, and then I'm actually logged in to Vicipaedia. Rather unnecessarily involved!Rafaelgarcia 03:09, 25 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Formula:Comitatus Angliae

Quod problemam habes de hac formula? --Alex1011 10:01, 25 Martii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Zacynthus

I deleted a discretiva page you made a while back. I hope you don't mind. In reality Zacynthus the place in Ionia and Zacynthus the Ionian island are the same, and I don't think they will ever want two separate articles -- but if you disagree I'll bring it back!

Incidentally, I notice you are bringing to light lots of Dubcats and Nexus carentes right now. Very necessary work. Andrew Dalby 21:47, 1 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Rursus salve!

Okay, this is probably going to sound weird, so I'll explain first. I'm taking an Advanced Grammar and Comp course, and our final exam is to write a Vikipædia article and put it on here. In part I wanted to warn you that twelve really random articles about things like tennis and biology are going to (or should, anyway) pop up fully written around the beginning of May. Here's what I'm wondering: do you guys mind this? Would you rather the articles start small and grow slowly (I imagine that would be easier for grammar)? We don't really have a choice in this matter, but I'd like to know when I make new articles in the future. Thanks! Agriope 03:47, 12 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)

We only mind if you call it Vikipædia again... (noli uti k aut ligaturis). Other than that, we don't mind at all. Although, tenniludium and Biologia are already started... But I mean, as far as random goes... check out hangman, Magic 8 Ball, pesto, paper air plane, and Flying Spaghetti Monster. Randomness should not be your concern, but good Latin. Start with what you can manage in terms of size. Bear in mind, if you write a huge article, it might be harder to get someone to make corrections. I assure, for my part, that I will assist in any way you all need. Good luck!--Ioshus (disp) 04:10, 12 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Shoot, I almost forgot to add beer pong to the list of random articles =] --Ioshus (disp) 04:15, 12 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Of course, good Latin is always my first and foremost concern, whether I want it to be or not. They're writing on specific parts of biology and tennis as far as I know. I'm writing on a band called Say Anything--when I create the article, should I put the name in Latin (Dice Quivis)? Agriope 05:04, 12 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Well, we have the start of an article on Dies Viridis. ¶ Re: "Dice." You might want to recheck your paradigm. ::winkwink:: IacobusAmor 02:47, 13 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, a couple of things there. Proper imperative of dicere is dic. And as far as quivis it should be quidvis or maybe better quodlibet but certainly better aliquid. "Anything" and "whatever" are close, but not equivalent.--Ioshus (disp) 03:42, 13 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Quivis is stated in our book to be used for deliberate choice while quilibet expresses blind choice. Did you mean to say either of them would be a better choice than aliquid, or that aliquid would be the better option? Agriope 03:08, 14 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
I think aliquid is best...--Ioshus (disp) 06:18, 14 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Got it. Thanks guys--I'll probably be asking lots more weird questions as I get close to finishing my article. Agriope 00:00, 13 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Ha! Nothing in any wiki is ever "finished" ! IacobusAmor 02:44, 13 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
Lord knows that's the truth! Just check out Scacchi...featured article, yet, SOOO much work to do...--Ioshus (disp) 03:42, 13 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
An editor's work is never done. I'm still learning that one! Agriope 03:08, 14 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] deletion

Hi Rolandus,

could you please delete the userpage that has been nominated by me (see [1] )? It contains personal information and is an insult in german. Please also block the account. Thanks a lot. (I dont mention the page here directly, as that would be duplication of the insult etc, thanks for the understanding) Effeietsanders 09:31, 27 Maii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Emendationes tuae recentissimae

Non video quid emendaveris in paginis Thomas Morus, Tinti, Trachea, Urbanus VII et Teresia Lexoviensis. Nullam differentiam observare possum. --Fabullus 22:32, 27 Maii 2007 (UTC)

Hae mutationes sunt tam subtiles ut non cadant sub oculos. Exempli gratia, in pagina "Urbanus VII," Rolandus "MDXC]] )" ad "MDXC]])" mutavit. IacobusAmor 00:37, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)
Yes, in these cases I have just removed blanks before closing brackets which I think are typographically not correct. There is a page Vicipaedia:Dump/latest, which has a special section for this constellation: "Blank_before_closing_bracket". I create this list automatically from the periodical database dumps. Superfluous blanks are a minor problem but sometimes they are good indicators for other problems a page could have. --Rolandus 06:54, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)
Thank you both. I didn't mean to criticise you, I just really didn't notice the changes. If you change a letter the difference is shown in red, but if you change a blank, there is nothing to print in red, I guess. Best wishes, --Fabullus 07:06, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Backlinks

(comment on your user page) It's a very interesting point. But I often check for backlinks on other Wikipedias and add them myself if they are missing -- maybe you do too. No problem, but by doing this I might spoil your statistics! Andrew Dalby 08:30, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it would be useful to see that dump of English backlinks. Andrew Dalby 09:54, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)
Wow, that sounds like hard work. I don't want to give you work, Rolande! It's your choice. Andrew Dalby 10:12, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)
Interesting, those new files.
In the file Usor:Rolandus/temp/Interwiki_links_from_en_to_la, a redlink means (a) there's a special character that didn't work properly: well, never mind that; or (b) there's an interwiki link somewhere on English Wikipedia that leads to a nonexistent Latin page. For example, the redlink Papilio means that at en:Butterfly there's a link [[la:Papilio]] but no Latin article. Andrew Dalby 14:09, 29 Maii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Vicipaedia

Yes, I removed the two paragraphs intentionally as clean-up after incorporating the points in the portion I rewrote. But feel free to restore them if you want! Montivagus 20:40, 28 Maii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Danke

für deine Erklärung. Es ist jetzt mir klar. Ciao Massimo

für die Auskunft über Whitaker. Meine Frage war nicht rhetorisch - jedenfalls nicht ganz. --Neander 21:03, 9 Iunii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Danke

Ich hoffe, dass ich als Verwalter behilflich sein kann. Ciao--Massimo Macconi 07:59, 10 Iunii 2007 (UTC)

Aber sicher! :-) By the way, "Verwalter" is a very nice word for "Adminstrator" (which is used in the German Wikipedia). --Rolandus 08:15, 10 Iunii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Thanks

Thanks for the Ido template, Roland!

[recensere] Praenomina

Hallo, ich suche die Übersetzung für Namen: Armand, Gaëtan, Fernand, Aristide und Lionel. Some users haben mir gesagt, dass du mir helfen kann. -- Thoma D. 16:25, 4 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

So I suppose you can add in you list from the page Index nominum those first names: Caietanus,Aristides, Leonellus, Armandus. -- Thoma D. 06:42, 5 Iulii 2007 (UTC)
Done ... but it is not my list. ;-) Feel free to edit it. --Rolandus 12:45, 8 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] {{Finnia}}?

Hi, Rolande! I need some help. I'm currently spending a lot of time on Finnish Geography articles but I don't know how to make a formula. Can only Magistrati do it? I have the following formula: ↓VOILA!↓

Provinciae et Urbes Finniae
Provinciae: Finnia Meridionalis | Finnia Occidentalis | Finnia Orientalis | Lapponia (Finniae) | Uloa (Provincia) | Alandia
Urbes: Aboa | Arctopolis | Carolina vetus | Helsinkium | Neo-Carolina | Sala | Uloa | Vallis Gratiae | Vantania

Danke schön, mein freund. --Harrissimo 23:21, 6 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

Creating formulas is not difficult, every user can make and edit them. You have only to put your above formula in the formula-namespace, for example on the page Formula:Finnia (btw the plural of magistratus is magistratūs ;-)) --Amphitrite 12:14, 7 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Unsourced place names

Salve Rolande! Being a bit of an expert in this sort of thing, I thought you might want to look at the discussion in the Taberna about how to handle an unsourced place name and if we should include non-latin letters or not. Do we already have a policy on this? --Harrissimo 22:41, 17 Iulii 2007 (UTC)

Rolande?

[recensere] it's the first

time I do it. I had no idea. Could I increase the period? Ciao--Massimo Macconi 17:22, 3 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] there's a problem with my discussion page

there's a problem with my discussion page I can't see it anymore. Does it depend from vandalism? Thank you for your help?--Massimo Macconi 21:24, 3 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

Ciao, Massimo. Il stesso problema è con molte discussioni. Non sapiamo perché, è un "glitch" . . . Credo che UV Rolando ha domandato i tecnichi, e speramo che tutti saranno bene domani . . . --Ioscius (disp) 21:36, 3 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Thanks!

Thanks for the assistance with the category, Rolande. Now how do we make this category a subset of the category of (all) university alumni? IacobusAmor 13:32, 5 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] Categoria:Biographia

There are so many names, it would be helpful if, to find a name near the bottom, we didn't have to scroll down through the whole list. Could names starting with any given letter be keyed to a list of letters at the top of the first page of the list?—and eventually a broken-down list of letters, as in Aa–Al, Am–Az, Ba–Be, Bh–Bo, Br–Bz (or whatever)? IacobusAmor 13:47, 5 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

It has actually been said (by UV and others I think) that Categoria:Biographia was intended for articles about biography, not for biographies of people. Most people don't add biographical articles to this category. When I'm editing a biographical article I normally remove this category if I have another to substitute, such as years of birth and death. Similarly with Categoria:Homines. I don't see any use in them, personally. Andrew Dalby 14:37, 5 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] The dump

Just in case there's something you can do about this ... The sections no-cat and stub-but-no-cat are larger than they need to be, because in many cases the page does have a category assigned by a formula (e.g. {{Praefecturae Franciae}}). The listing would be even more helpful if it could manage to exclude such cases. Andrew Dalby 15:04, 7 Augusti 2007 (UTC)

[recensere] A and B

A: Hi, Rolande. Thanks for finding the WSJ article (link on your user page)! I had looked, but for some reason I hadn't been able to track it down.

B: There was discussion over at Disputatio Vicipaediae:Latinitas. I notice you didn't step in -- maybe you were letting it cool off. As you see, there was doubt about the various positive Latinitas levels, though the negative ones seem accepted as very useful. Well, I was wondering whether to experiment with L 1: first to make it show a small tick at the right-hand corner instead of a line of text across the page (I think I can do that); second, to make it produce one category instead of two. But I have held off, because surely there is a reason why they all produce two categories (Latinitas +1 and L +1); it's just that I haven't seen what the reason is. Also because it's a well-built system and I am frightened of changing something and spoiling what I don't understand. And thirdly because I'm wondering what you think about it! Anyway, let me know if you're around. Andrew Dalby 07:58, 18 Augusti 2007 (UTC)
