I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome!

Okay, thanks for the tips, guys. User:Croman_mac_Nessa 01:16, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd like any further pointers on the maze of twisty wikipedia policies and guidelines, or otherwise, do feel equally free to drop me a line. Alai 03:33, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ivernic

(Continuing here) Indeed, now I see what you mean. Yes, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ivernic language has quite extensive quotations from your work which will turn up on google. I can quite easily keep them out of google's greedy robotic grasp, if that would help. Let me know. You can leave a note here, or on my talk page, whichever is easier. Angus McLellan (Talk) 00:30, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And, of course, the offending paragraph should be rewritten and your work credited as a reference! Angus McLellan (Talk) 00:32, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, good enough. Many thanks. Croman mac Nessa 00:35, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I notice when I go to the Primitive Irish Language article (or when I go to the link for "Ivernic Language" which redirects to the Primitive Irish Language article), even on another computer which hasn't been there (and so does not have the older version in its cache), that the "citation needed" link is still present and that my article is not included in the references. After refreshing, it appears as I have edited it, with the link to my article in the body of the text and my article included in the references. Will this be resolved any time soon?

I also notice, apparently due to the GNU Free Documentation License, that other sites (like About.com and similar sites) have sometimes taken entire articles from Wikipedia and reproduced them on their own servers. There were a few such sites which had used this article on Primitive Irish Language. Do you know if they update those on any sort of regular basis? (This is a legitimate concern, but I'm primarily doing this addition to my talk page to see if my new signature is working).

Mórrígan

Hi! I saw your comment at Talk:Morrígan that "Both spellings 'Morrígan' and 'Mórrígan' appear in Old Irish." This would be really useful information to add to the article. I wonder if you could cite some of the sources for this, or even better, cite a reputable book or article that makes this observation. I don't know the source material very well myself, but would be very pleased to add this to the article if you could furnish the citations. I've left a comment to the same effect at the talk page there. Best wishes, Fuzzypeg ^talk 23:58, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 02:56, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
