Acarajé & Acaraje
[edit]Hello Qwerty qwerty! Funny that you (re)created the page right after I did! You're right about the lack of cleverness in Wikipedia not automatically directing you to the accented spelling – it doesn't make much sense, especially for those of us who speak a language that is practically devoid of accents (English, that is). In other languages an accent can mean the differenve between two totally different words: In Portuguese "avó" means grandmother while "avô" means grandfather, "maio" is the month of May but "maiô" means swimsuit, and make sure you ask for "suco de maçã" (apple juice) instead of "suco de maca" (hospital stretcher juice). For now, "Acaraje" redirects to "Acarajé", an article that could use some expanding if you've up for it. Morganfitzp 04:51, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
License tagging for Image:Loginsafaribrowser.png
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Loginsafaribrowser.png. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 03:05, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
