Gotcha edit

Salut Alex,

Grâce au lien que tu m'as envoyé sur le RFID, j'ai consulté l'historique de la page et j'ai retrouvé ton compte. Je présume que tu en as aussi un sur le site français, mais j'ai vu qu'il n'y avait pas de lien interwiki actif sur ta page d'utilisateur. Si tu m'indiques quel nom d'utilisateur tu utilises en français, ça me fera plaisir de m'en charger : ) Ciao. Stéphane Thibault 08:20, 29 January 2006 (UTC)   TalkReply

A belated welcome! edit

 
Sorry for the belated welcome, but the cookies are still warm!  

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Lordsatri. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! Trafford09 (talk) 14:42, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Categories edit

Hi Alexandre, and welcome back to English WP. Nice to have a fellow Go (game)-player active on Wikipedia.

A point re Wikipedia:Categorization#Category_organization:

The above advises that "If logical membership of one category implies logical membership of a second, then the first category should be made a subcategory (directly or indirectly) of the second. For example, Cities in France is a subcategory of Populated places in France, which in turn is a subcategory of Geography of France.".

From this, I've read somewhere that one should add 1 category per article, if the other(s) are higher up the same branch of the tree. So, the higher categories see here are picked up en route.

Hence this edit was unnecessary - just thought you'd like to know why I've reverted it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trafford09 (talkcontribs) 14:54, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

- Hi Trafford09 - thanks for the nice reply, this is appreciated. Thanks too for the explanation on categories. What actually a annoyed me is that the parent category doesn't show at all pages in subcategories until someone clicks on it. Cheers - Alex Lordsatri (talk) 15:33, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Salut - thanks - that was a quick reply! Oh, I also wondered if you'd seen Wikipedia:WikiProject_Go#Userboxes. Regards, Trafford09 (talk) 15:49, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

- Yes, I've been using the 'Go player' userbox since this morning... yes, I found out about it from your userpage :-) Cheers - Alex Lordsatri (talk) 16:17, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Ah - very good :) Trafford09 (talk) 16:59, 23 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image File:Animoog logo.jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Animoog logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 14:52, 4 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

- Thanks @ShakespeareFan00:, Those two images, the Animoog logo and the splashscreen, were provided to me by Moog themselves. I am not myself related to Moog Music (other than being a beta tester and customer). You are correct, the state of these images licenses are unknown. Another Wikipedia editor recently removed those images from the Animoog article. I'm fine with this. And yes, this means these images can now be safely deleted. One day I might try to clarify the images licenses with their source. Sincere regards -- Lordsatri (talk) 00:19, 5 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

Request reason:

Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is 2606:54C0:1480:270:0:0:46:1D. I am not using a VPN or any proxy. I'm using a regular and common ISP provider in Montreal, Colba.net. First time I get blocked from editing, clearly an error. Let me know if further action is required. I was trying to contribute to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Web_mapping when I found out about this block. Thanks! -- Alex Lordsatri (talk) 21:20, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

That IP address belongs to Cloudflare and is indeed a proxy. Yamla (talk) 22:17, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Ah, thanks a lot @Yamla , your reply helped me pinpoint the issue! It's Wikipedia blocking Apple iCloud Private Relay. I forgot I turned that feature on. Good for privacy, but I can understand Wikipedia wanting to reduce spam edits... Editing with Firefox works for me though, thanks. Lordsatri (talk) 00:57, 30 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
