Your activity[edit]

Hi. What exactly are you doing on pages like User:Bolo1729/Analysis/34380d71-f14b-3667-be1f-49317993f5a1? Please read about the scope of Meta and check whether or not these pages belong here. Please state here why these pages should not be deleted. --Thogo (talk) 13:51, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. These pages are related to Interwiki_synchronization, they are results of automated analyses which are otherwise performed "manually" by people engaged in the interwiki synchronization. They show the big picture: semantic drift occurring due to small differences in meaning introduced by some interlanguage links. I do not intend to clutter Meta with thousands of such files, I have only uploaded analyses related to the current or recently resolved issues. The page you've mentioned refers to this issue. All the pages are located in Category:Interlanguage_links_analysis, so batch removal is possible. However, IMHO the pages do not violate the policies of Meta. See Interwiki_synchronization#Automated_analysis for more rationale. --Bolo1729 16:19, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank You for the explaination and the work You are doing, please may I ask You to add a licence, source and author to the images, because we can't accept unlicenced images. If You also wish to use the images on other projects, I recommend to upload them to commons: (please note that only free licences are accepted there).

Thanks, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _(:> )=| 19:27, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I've added the {{GFDL-self}} template to the descriptions of every image that I'd uploaded. Is it enough? I believe that these images (at least in the current form) are of no use in other Wikimedia projects, so there's no reason to move them to Commons now. --Bolo1729 21:55, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your explanation. Yes, if you created them yourself, GFDL-self is sufficient. --Thogo (talk) 10:24, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any chance you could update your site with a more up-to-date Wikipedia database dump? Interwiki links change all the time. Have mörser, will travel 18:10, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
