Hello Glenn

I assume since you are Danish that you are not Glenn, but I thought you might be interested in knowing there is an article with that name. 66.245.208.69 22:36, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Unverified images

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

Image:Large_hailstone.jpg

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{PD-self}} if you wish to release your own work to the public domain, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. Peter O. (Talk, automation script) 21:25, Dec 25, 2004 (UTC)

P.S. You can help tag other images at User:Yann/Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

Hi Poccil

I am pretty certain that I have not uploaded this picture to the english Wikipedia. But - I think I did found the site where the picture comes from. I found it, when I used the picture on the danish Wiki. I have put the site on the page and it contains copyrigt information. My username is there because I made a link to the danish wiki uploaded picture!

It is the automated conversionscripts fault that the original user, that uploaded it, can not be found.

Interwiki link to en:

Hi,
At comparator, you added interwiki links to da:, de:, and sv:, and also one to en: enclosed in an HTML comment tag. What is the purpose of this link (or rather, non-link)? --Smack (talk) 01:03, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Hi Smack. The purpose is to ease en-link on non-en-wiki articles. Glenn 19:24, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)

First, is that really necessary? They can just copy and paste the page title. Second, is it really clear? They might (misunderstanding the comment tag) think that it's some arcane sort of link to another page. Third, will it confuse our own contributors? Tally up one already. --Smack (talk) 19:53, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

WikiCommons

Hi, when you move images from en: to WikiCommons (such as Image:PencilSharpenerBatteryOp.jpg, don't forget to include important information such as the name of the photographer and the image history. The copyright owner has a right to be credited according to GFDL. Also, images with incomplete information may be deleted from WikiCommons. Regards, Thuresson 12:16, August 3, 2005 (CEST)

Removal of Content

It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from an article. Please be careful not to remove content from Wikipedia without a valid reason, which you should specify in the edit summary or on the article's talk page. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Kaspazes ^talk 12:06, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kaspazes. If you mean [1], then it was on purpose, because the Scandianavian countries is a proper subset of The Nordic Countries, and not the other way around. Even in Denmark it happens that people make that mistake. --Glenn 12:13, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Glenn, My mistake. While I don't know exactly what is meant by a 'Regenerative cycle' is, you're correct that the Rankine cycle, Kalina cycle are phase change cycles. I had intended to alphabetize, and overlooked your categories. I believe I've now put it back the way it was, but you may want to double-check. thanks, FWIW, perhaps someone should make stubs for the Regenerative cycle, etc.

Hello, Glenn. I removed the links to news articles from Archaeology because the article could very quickly get too long if we carried on including them. It would be different if you could guarantee to update that section at regular intervals. See Talk:Archaeology for a fuller explanation. Deb 14:01, 16 Aug 2003 (UTC)

subject

Hi Glenn, I've removed links from the scientific name of eg Whooper Swan because it's a self link back to the article. It's better just to create the redirect from Cygnus cygnus, which is already the case for, eg American style lower case versions like Whooper swan.

You can create the redirect article from the browser navigation bar, without having a real link.

Hi, I've moved Ringnecked Pheasant to Common Pheasant, and redirected all the numerous links to that. I hope this makes sense, if not we had better discuss it before we get into an edit war (although I'll be out most of today). You seem to have Green Pheasant as a subspecies, my book gives it as a species, but I've no strong views on that.jimfbleak 05:38, 6 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Hello. Stop making Kielesguhr link to itself as I've said before. I can understand making the mistake once, but to insist on it even after corrected I do not understand. Morwen 10:44, Dec 27, 2003 (UTC)

Hi - please don't make self-links - that is articles that link to a redirect to the same page. It is a waste of time for someone clicking on them. People keep removing them but you keep readding them! Secretlondon 10:46, Dec 27, 2003 (UTC)

Hello! I have a request, assuming that you speak dannish... (Actually my father grew up in Copenhagen) Can you translate the Pachypodium lamerei of the danish wiki to the english? We have some Pachypodiums but not that one. Cheers! Muriel Victoria 16:09, 3 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Hello Muriel

Your assumption is correct - I am a dane - and from Copenhagen.

I have translated the article about Pachypodium lamerei. I have got Madagascar Palms two times, but this is now a long time ago. regards, Glenn 11:42, 4 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Why capital letters -- Quality of Service, rather than quality of service? Michael Hardy 20:20, 27 May 2003 (UTC)[reply]

subject

I note that you have added a whole lot of new links to Distributed power (and the danish Distribueret_elproduktion that are more appropriately Renewable energy. I have just expanded the basic article. Can you please review all those links as I do not think a lot of them are really appropriate to this topic but should be on some other more appropriate page. Would you also like to translate the english to danish? ---- kiwiinapanic 10:28, 14 Jun 2003 (UTC)

subject

Your article on Distributed power would be more accurately titled Distributed generation. It is an article which fits well into the series of articles on electricity, electricity market, electric power transmission, electricity generation, and electricity distribution, which I have been working on. Distributed power is more about the distribution of power whereas "distributed generation" is a topical subject associated with how local generation can contribute to how future electricity needs can be met. I agree with kiwiinapanic that there are too many unrelated links. I would be happy to cooperate with you on the article, if you wish. Tiles 05:46, 15 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
Multi-Licensing Guide
Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk) 18:08, Dec 8 2004 (UTC)

lots of edits, not an admin

Hi - I made a list of users who've been around long enough to have made lots of edits but aren't admins. If you're at all interested in becoming an admin, can you please add an '*' immediately before your name in this list? I've suggested folks nominating someone might want to peruse this list, although there is certainly no guarantee anyone will ever look at it. Thanks. -- Rick Block (talk) 00:31, Jun 16 2005 (UTC)

Lip sync error

Please revert and thus restore the article and engage in discussion on the talk page. There clearly is no consensus and the article is all of two days old. Benjiboi 14:08, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have now restored the article Lip sync error, though all of it's information is in audio to video synchronization. I was just trying to clean up the article mess about audio to video synchronization. It was full of repetitions. --Glenn (talk) 14:17, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Having duplicate info in all three might not be the best but we also can sort out what makes the most sense perhaps it's fine to have all three. Where are folks most likely to look for the information and where can it be summed up only. I think we agree that a summary and link can go on the lip sync article.

Strange category title

Hi Glenn: This new category electrical energy gearing troubles me, as I've never heard that exact phrase outside of the Wikipedia. Gearing in particular is an unfortunate word, in my opinion. Can you explain what the utility of this category is? --Wtshymanski (talk) 16:17, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have made a short description. It might be that a better phrase exist. With gearing I mean impedance change. E.g. in category:electrical energy gearing it is electrical impedance. I just thought that gearing would be a better word for it in broad sense. See movement advantage, mechanical advantage and gear ratio. (How do gears make life easier?) --Glenn (talk) 09:55, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Energy control

I can understand Category:Electrical energy control, (without checking your specific article inclusions), but your addition of automotive control systems to this category seems odd. Can you explain?

If you can't, I'll propose the category for deletion, as it has neither inclusion criteria nor a home article. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 19:40, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Arthur

These automotive control systems intelligently manages the vehicles kinetic energy to thermal energy (in the brakes) when braking: Anti-lock braking system, Electronic Stability Control, Electronic brakeforce distribution.

These automotive control systems intelligently manages the vehicles (increasing) transmission energy under acceleration: Automatic transmission, Electronic Differential, Launch control (automotive), Semi-automatic transmission, Traction control system.

These control systems intelligently manages the engine: Engine control unit, Idle reduction.

--Glenn (talk) 20:29, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think that's too much conflating of different definitions of energy. Please write the description of the category before putting disperate articles into a category. Consider control rod for an additional article which might belong in the category. Please check Wikipedia:Category and see whether the categories you've created lately meet that guideline. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 20:40, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

To some extent control rod could be in category, but by itself, it is not major part of an intelligent energy control system. The nuclear control system does hovever.

When more articles is included there might be a category like: Category:Mechanical energy control.

I have read about Wikipedia:Categorization, but I can not find argument why it should not be there.

I can not understand the word "conflating". Can you please explain?

--Glenn (talk) 21:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I may be using a non-standard definition of "conflating", but I mean that "electrical energy transfer", "kinetic energy transfer", etc. only have the name in common, not any characteristics in common which might lead a person interested in one to be interested in another. In any case, I've nominated four of the categories for deletion. You're welcome to comment (or add any other categories which have the same characteristics). — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 21:32, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please put your "rename" comments in the CfD, rather than in the category itself, so that the discussion can be unified. If they were to be renamed, it would have to be done through a CfD anyway. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 23:24, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not replace a category under deletion with a new name, without copying the CfD notice. It's a clear violation of the CfD instructions to empty a category while under CfD. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 07:48, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. --Glenn (talk) 07:52, 15 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2008 March 3#Energy

I believe there was indeed consensus to delete these. Johnbod asked if they were otherwise categorised, and was assured that they were. I took this to be accurate. C J Cowie suggested renaming various categories. The renamed ones were not deleted. ~~It seems that you have recreated some of the categories. Please don't do this unilaterally.~~ I would think that you'd be best to discuss the sort of categorisation schemes you have in mind with other interested editors and to reach agreement in advance rather than present them with a fait accompli. Disputes just mean more work all round. Best regards, Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:05, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

D-STAR

Hello. I just noticed this where you had re categorized the article.

I'm not sure that is the best in terms of folks finding the D-STAR article through categories. I've made many improvements to the article and am an amateur operator, as well as an established Wikipedian, and think that the article could be better categorized in order to help its visibility. Dawnseeker2000 00:39, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

I also think that you also mean this change?: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=D-STAR&diff=next&oldid=341073429 ?

The reason I removed Category:Packet radio from all of the quantized radio modulation modes articles was, that many of the modes is used by amateur packet radio, and therefore you might as well go to Category:Quantized_radio_modulation_modes.

I have now reinserted the category Category:Packet radio in amateur radio related quantized radio modulation modes.

--Glenn (talk) 09:42, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Radioteletype = Packet Radio?

Hi Glenn. I'm not sure that I understand your reasoning here. Can you please explain? Wa3frp (talk) 13:52, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have now changed the category. --Glenn (talk) 14:26, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Glenn,

I am new to Wikipedia and am associated with an enterprise CMS. I am looking forward to add the details of the CMS into the wikipedia database and would be grateful if you could enlighten me on how to move forward with creating an page / article.

The reason I contacted you out of the blue is because I have no idea on where to start. It seems a bit confusing. I came across your ID in one of the pages related content management system and hence thought of contacting you.

Please excuse if you feel this is inappropriate.

Your contributed article, Liste af UNIX-værktøjer

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Liste af UNIX-værktøjer. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – List of Unix utilities. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at List of Unix utilities – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Keφr (talk) 18:49, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Speedy at Liste af UNIX-værktøjer

Hi Glenn, you recently removed a deletion tag from Liste af UNIX-værktøjer. Because Wikipedia policy does not allow the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an automated program has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - SDPatrolBot (talk) 18:50, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Radio Spectrum Scope

Hello Glenn.
I noticed your page Radio spectrum scope. I am somewhat concerned that you "... copied a paragraph ... and changed some".

I think at the very least you have to note what version of the spectrum analyser page you copied from. See Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia
Secondly, your sources include YouTube and a blog. These aren't reliable sources are they?
I also wonder if we need to split this information into a separate page, if it already exists on the Spectrum analyser page?

Just asking, :-) 220 of ^Borg 13:35, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi 220 of Borg - Answer:

Only this "survived" from spectrum analyser: "measures the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency", but I started with two sentences.
I did not supply any sources - just links.
No, Radio spectrum scope currently do not exist in its full extent in the article spectrum analyser.

I have added sources.

--Glenn (talk) 14:51, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Some sources are better than nothing I suppose, but something sourced to a ham operator could be dubious. I had a look though, and it seems legit, a shame 'N7RHU' doesn't give his sources. A few more sources would be good, but there doesn't seem to be much on-line. ARRL books may be one possibility, perhaps older radio/electronics magazines.

The gizmo sounds like a 'narrow' band, spectrum analyser that shows what is near the freq. you are using. 220 of ^Borg 00:01, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of RSID

Hello Glenn,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged RSID for deletion. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an unnecessary disambiguation page.

If you feel that the page shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
