User talk:Javier Arambel
Dear Javier, my apologies for changing Spear of Destiny to Spear of Longinus. I didn't check the link, and certainly didn't realise it would point to an Australian rock band. A genuine error on my part, and not intended as vandalism. Apologies again, --Dogbertd 11:48, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
Please stop tagging entire families of birds as poultry. Unless you can provide sources, for example, that all 300 species of dove are kept for that purpose it is not appropriate. You might as well tag bird, since some birds, like some (one species?) doves, are kept as poultry. jimfbleak 21:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- no problem, I've fixed those on my watchlist, sorry about the tone of the comment above, it could have been better phrased. jimfbleak 08:58, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
- I've no problem with eg chicken, I'm surprised it isn't already tagged. jimfbleak 12:58, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

- P.S. a little whoopsie, but when you need to wikilink to a category, add a colon to the start of the word "Category". You accidently made User:Jimfbleak part of Category:Poultry... which though amusing isn't quite what categories are there for... - Ta bu shi da yu 06:42, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
Wikimedia Stories Project
[edit]Aloha!
My name is Victor and I work with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. We're chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade new people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who use Wikipedia have so much to share.
I find stories that drive our annual fundraising efforts. It's important to convey the incredible diversity of people who've come to rely upon Wikipedia every day.
I'd really like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia.
I will be in Buenos Aires from the 10th - 11th of March 2012.
I'm hoping you will elaborate on your story with me. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project!
Thank you,
Victor Grigas
