Hi, just happened to notice that you had some problems with 200.83.101.199. After 5/6 years of reverting vandalism I recently stopped editing because of comments by that IP. I understand how you feel. Regards Denisarona (talk) 15:21, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
Sigh. Rather an awkward situation .... because you know ... I am right now more worried about the admins who backed him up than him, because they are both my friends.

Hafs,
Everyone will be very glum without you to cheer us up and decorate our talk pages. Listen to Yunshui - he is very wise and always gave me good advice - have some tea, or better still some Irish coffee, take a deep breath and an hour or two away from the computer.
You know I'm not very patient and will end up reverting your user page ... ... SagaciousPhil - Chat 11:06, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

CAN ANYONE at least EXPLAIN WHAT IS ME AND MY ILK is DAMAGING IMMENSELY THE ENCYCLOPEDIA, - what is ilk. Hafspajen (talk) 17:38, 27 February 2015 (UTC).
"Me and my ilk" is "me and people like me". You are not damaging the encyclopedia, but are a valuable contributor, both to article and user space. I think of Bestknownfor as sandpaper- useful in some circumstances in taking the rust off, but you wouldn't want to lick it. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 19:01, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
"ilk" is Scottish language for "same", and because of its use in Highland clan titles "of that ilk" & variants have come to mean a type. Johnbod (talk) 19:13, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Hafs you have such a gift with images. That one above is really worthy a thousand words. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:51, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
Maybe - but just for the record - this editor is a blocked editor who was unblocked, here high up. Two admins, Drmies and Yngvadottir, have unblocked with a WP:0RR restriction. Looks to me that he was on called 1RR (one-revert rule) or 0RR (zero-revert rule). That means he should never been reverting anything at all - ever, he was under restrictions. This strucks me a bit weird. Why was he left free running arround like this? Hafspajen (talk) 21:25, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
I never know what's going on around here. Sca (talk) 23:10, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

This site really can be a pain sometimes. You do not have to be sorry as it was not you that caused my frustration, and, as you noticed I just cleaned house and moved on. Wrapping up a project right now and will have time for stuff later, I just need a week off to get my stuff in order. I will cover the FP SpaceShipOne caption and summary in a day or two, I have a TON of media to offload and need that done first. I have some ideas to improve that section and, once I recover from the last week I will reconsider my contributions if everyone is willing to work together, and refrain from unloading on me/mytalk page :), do not despair ok. It looks like others have at long last stepped up and are contributing, and it has been pre published in a timely manner. That is a good start. Cheers! talk→WPPilot 04:05, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Editor looking for stolen paintings
Latest comment: 9 years ago7 comments3 people in discussion
Ideallandschaft bei Mondschein 17 Jh
Hi Hafspajen,
Came across this edit to Looted art. I removed it, then I saw what you said at David nachman (talk·contribs)s talkpage. It looks like it may now have been removed from WP totally, as they added it to four pages. I also Googled it, and it's everywhere!
As a person interested in 'art', which I'm not really, perhaps you might know the current state of the Warka Vase?
Someone said your page is like a museum, and I agree. I like the stained glass up there ↑ somewhere. "Ryūko-zu Byōbu" (dragon) by Hashimoto Gahō is neat too. 220ofBorg 12:11, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
We have our own art collector and Wikipedia's art detective, Xanthomelanoussprog - why not ask him? Hafspajen (talk) 12:24, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
Well, it's more of an antiquity, looted from the National Museum of Iraq in 2003, but unfortunately returned, in somewhat worse shape. Said museum has just reopened, and I updated it's page, which is what got me started on this editing track. Do you think Xanthomelanoussprog could help? 220ofBorg 12:40, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
Pretty sure about it. Xanthomelanoussprog is more into the contemporary part of the art, art theft and art evaluation and collecting - than me. I am good at art history, while he is much better on this. Hafspajen (talk) 12:52, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
…arrives here breathless. recovers breath. Good evening everybody. Hadn't heard of the Warka vase, but according to this, written by Sean Kleefeld there's no information on its current state, and no update since May 2003. He says it was recovered in 14 pieces; photos on this site show that the vase may be missing the top half altogether. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 20:54, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
Xanthomelanoussprog Thanks for the feed back guys. That was an interesting blog,(about comics?) I may drop blogger Kleefeld a Vase update message if I get a good source. Going off very recent memory here, but I think that the Vase is on display right now for the reopening of the National Museum of Iraq. IIRC the museum officially reopened on Saturday, and was open to the public on Sunday (1st March). Looking at the "vase as recovered" picture [4], it certainly seems to be missing "the top". I had hopes it was all recovered as apparently it was "returned in 14 pieces" but later read that it was initially dug up "in 14 pieces" raising my hopes (though its WP page also says after recovery it broke into "20 pieces"!). This PDF from the UOC website dating from 2003 has some interesting details about the Vases return. On page 6 it says "... returned in mid-June but was severely damaged with its top register broken off"., as you said. 220ofBorg 05:16, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

I see we have a shared interest in the Disdéri photo. Was going through his high-quality scans today, saw her, thought "Ooh, famous artist" and saw your talk page message. A little sensible rearrangement of the images, and it's in - I like starting with the best image we have of someone.
So, what d'ye think, restore and co-nominate? Adam Cuerden(talk) 09:50, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Good idea. Hafspajen (talk) 09:51, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Right. That'll be a few days. I want to get that nice painting of her featured first, as there's a fair bit of interesting pictures to grab of her. =) Adam Cuerden(talk) 10:19, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Oh, you mean This one? - I thought you were talking about the photo...(?) Hafspajen (talk) 10:48, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Ok, excellent. I just removed one row of black pixels from bottom and right of the Disdéri photo. These pixels were not needed in the image and in fact were a distraction. They were visible at ordinary scale as thin black lines. Now they are no longer. I just checked the original source of the photo, the black pixels are not there, no it must have been an artifact that came with the capturing of the image. Coldcreation (talk) 11:23, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
I plan to nominate both! Also, on galleries: With mode=packed, anything much below 150-170px in height (depending on the mix of proportions) looks completely and totally hideous on even a mildly wide-screen monitor. Adam Cuerden(talk) 12:20, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
I have wide screen. When I made that gallery, it was me who made it , you know, I tried to go for two rows. Right now on my screen is one picture hanging belowe two rows as you set it.
It certainly doesn't look good as you re-set it. Hafspajen (talk) 12:23, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Took 140 as a compromise. Otherwise I have to remove a picture, it will not work as it was thought to work. Hafspajen (talk) 12:30, 3 March 2015 (UTC).
On mine, at 170, you get 2 long rows, with one centred images below it - really hideous. This is really irritating that one can't make a gallery look good on all screens, how is one supposed to do a good job like this<+ Is 140 OK? Hafspajen (talk) 12:33, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Latest comment: 9 years ago6 comments2 people in discussion
Um... Hafs? You only edit with one window size, don't you?
"the gallery was composed to show up as it does now, 6 first row, 4 second. There is balance and thought behind that layout"
That's literally impossible to do with the gallery tag. It will put as many images in the first row that fill it, and all remaining into the second row, and so on. How many are in each row will depend entirely on how wide your window is so never decide the heights of images in a gallery based on how it looks to you. You have to try a lot of window sizes and compare. Some window widths will always have dangling images. That's completely unavoidable. Adam Cuerden(talk) 12:32, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

No I have several screens. Looks same.

Adam Cuerden have I told you lately that I think you are avery good editor ? Hafspajen (talk) 12:37, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Heh. =) I think 140 is a little on the small side. And I don't want to divide it into two galleries, lest we end up with:
* * * * * * *
* *
* * * * * * *
*
I can live with 140, but I'd be inclined to just go big. 250 or so and it won't matter so much; it's not like there's much content of importance under the gallery. Adam Cuerden(talk) 12:42, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Well, If you can live with 140, could you do that? I had a very rough time with some IP edit-warring, don't start broking my hart now you too... Hafspajen (talk) 12:44, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

I didn't protest too much when you wanted the nomination for Niagara Falls, from the American Side to be closed. That's because I knew that it could be renominated any time before April Fools' Day. Well, I'm now proposing that we do just that. You've said that your DYKs have been "difficult", and this one was particularly so. But the two recent DYKs which I nominated for you were approved without any difficulty at all. We would start a brand new nom for the Church, and hopefully this time it will go smoother. Worst case, if those long passages in the References section become an issue again, they can be changed; they could even be eliminated entirely just until the DYK runs, and then you could restore them afterwards. Your wonderful article about this great painting deserves its time on the Main Page. If you and Sagaciousphil are okay with it, it should definitely be nominated to appear on April Fools' Day. If Xanthomelanoussprog wants to nominate it again, that's fine, or I could do it. MANdARAX•XAЯAbИAM 21:17, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
Although you didn't explicitly say it, I gather from what you said on my talk page that you'd be opposed to renominating this. Oh, well. The best laid devious plans of mice and men.... If you decide you want to go ahead with it, there are still a few weeks to get the nomination in. MANdARAX•XAЯAbИAM 21:23, 5 March 2015 (UTC)

When Adam let loose on me I had enough, as it was not my obligation to cover for his delay in posting the template. I asked CorinneSD to assist me, so as to address the issues Adam had with that fast down and dirty edit done on last moments notice. CorinneSD seems like a interested and competent user and I would love to have the user assist me, in the first round drafts that I create in the FP section as her English skills are far superior to mine and I felt that would address the issues he raised.

Chopin VODKA? Vodka has to be ABSOLUTE, or it isn't any idea bothering. Hafspajen (talk) 14:58, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
Obviously, mój kolega, you've never lived in Poland, where the best vodkas are made from rye. Sca (talk) 16:03, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
No, I never lived in Poland. I speak no Polish either, but I got the impression they are very thankful. They say Thank you, thank you all the time. In Swedish... Hafspajen (talk) 16:19, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, tak (yes). But their cousins the Czechs say no all the time – short for ano (also yes). So they're shaking their heads "yes" but saying "no, no, no." Confusing.

The Absolute, also represented through other concepts as the Absolute principle of reality, the All or Whole, the OriginPrinciple or Primordial Cause, the Sacred or Holy or Utterly Other the Mystery, the Ultimate, the Ground or Urground ("Original Ground"), is the concept of an unconditional reality which transcends limited, conditional, everyday existence. Hafspajen (talk) 17:29, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
I am NOT. I sing the song of the PRAISE OF VINE, Bordeaux, for example. Anyone following this discussion, don't drink vodka, it's not good for you... I drink wine. Almost only wine... rarely beer, even I do like it. Very little strong alcohol - in the matter of fact, and only on special occasions. If anything I might drink regularely that would be red wine, nothing else... And how do you know she was sleeping???? UH? Hafspajen (talk) 20:33, 14 March 2015 (UTC).

Temporary insanity.
LOVE, n. A temporary insanity curable by marriage or by removal of the patient from the influences under which he incurred the disorder. This disease, like caries and many other ailments, is prevalent only among civilized races living under artificial conditions; barbarous nations breathing pure air and eating simple food enjoy immunity from its ravages. It is sometimes fatal, but more frequently to the physician than to the patient.

There's a request for comment opened on the "Involuntary Celibacy" article, with the same editor trying to restore it as the one who tried to do so previously with the latest Deletion Review. I thought you might be interested in this because of your previous involvement in the subject. I know you are probably as tired of this debate as I am, hopefully we can end it once and for all now.

The previous discussions are in the link provided, he put them in the page on the request for comment. This entire ordeal is very, very tiring and I hope we can be done with it once and for all. Either way, I hope a lot of people get involved so we have a very strong consensus this time (again). One that, hopefully, won't be ignored again like keeps happening.

"Charles I in Three Positions is a painting by Philippe de Champaigne (1602 – 1674) who was a Brabançon-born FrenchBaroque era painter, and a founding member of the French Academy for painting and sculpture. He was mainly active in Paris, where he portrayed the entire French court, the French high nobility, royalty, high members of the church and the state, parliamentarians and architects and other notable people, some more than once. And he was simply crazy about Cardinal de Richelieu, he painted him from the left, right, facing him, sitting, standing ... sometimes he painted him three times in the same painting too... he just simply couldn't have enough of him. Or was it the other way round*?"
Was only provisoric. Don't know where to link that, so I took the article where it figured. Hafspajen (talk) 17:18, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
OK; took Triple Portrait of Cardinal de Richelieu and dab to Cardinal Richelieu, is that all right, Adam? Hafspajen (talk) 17:21, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
I think it's better to just link the Richlieu part, but I got it. But you can't be talking about the Triple Portrait of Richlieu, and explicitly say you're talking about the Triple portrait of Charles I, obviously. Take it you meant to change the link? Adam Cuerden(talk) 17:31, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Hey Haf, sorry for reverting you but I thought it would be best to keep it out while we're talking. In my view, and the view of a woman I asked for comment, the last sentence is pretty sexist. While I'm very sure that it was unintentional (really, I can't stress enough that I'm not blaming or mad at you or anything like that), I don't feel that it should be in a description. Is that alright? Ed[talk][majestic titan] 13:20, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
Then I simply have to say, I do not agree. Which part of the :Their marriage was a happy one. Some say this kind of thing never works out. Reality says otherwise. Ladies, don't write off the young guys – it can work. - is sexist? It was maybe a joke, but part of it was serious. I am going to reinstate either way the: Their marriage was a happy one. Some say this kind of thing never works out. Reality says otherwise. - Can't find ANYTHING offensive with this. Not a word. About the part Ladies, don't write off the young guys – it can work... - I don't find it sexist at all. ON THE CONTRARY: In this world where people only look for women who are young, beautiful and all guys try to find YOUNG women, who are willing to look up to them because they are like ten years older and so called wiser and measures their value in youth and beauty - our friend Sheikh Mijwal al-Musrab stands out as a shining star. It is a man who married a woman twenty years older than him and made her happy. Excellent. Just wonderful. Every woman, every feminist, every person who cares about a woman should applaud this. It is a man who cared for a woman for what she was, and have seen her with his hart and not with his eyes. And succeeded to won her heart, above all stupid barons, all kings, a princes, a colonels, and counts who never succeeded to keep her for long, because she left them. That was no woman who knew nothing about men, I can promise you. I now reinstate the part: Their marriage was a happy one. Some say this kind of thing never works out. Reality says otherwise.' - I move this discussion to Signpost talk. And if you remove this once more I remove all the enrty and leave nothing but: Jane Digby (created by William Charles Ross, nominated by Alborzagros ) This miniature by the artist William Charles Ross portrays the fascinating Jane Digby. - That is what I have to say.

Re Le Grand Canal, flattered that you mentioned me but I'm undecided. It's a pleasant pic, but is this a different kind of Monet (& thus a learning experience)? Stylistically, isn't it similar to other waterscapes of his? Perhaps we need to 'de-Monet-ize' the FP queue a bit. Ditto Vicent. Sca (talk) 15:36, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Of course. Re "Less Known Works," you could nominate one of those – Maybe Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny or Road at La Cavée, Pourville.
Don't get me wrong – I like Grand Canal, but I think it's quite widely known. Anyway, it'll get promoted.
PS: You could make it "Lesser Known Works,' but I would check with Corinne first – if you can find her. Sca (talk) 18:15, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Latest comment: 9 years ago13 comments5 people in discussion
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Hafspajen. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Hafspajen~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Both are mine, dear. I can't really clash with myself, now can I? Writ Keeper was doing something with it when he changed Warrington to Hafspajen. Hafspajen (talk) 00:29, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

On the right of it sits Midas with very large ears, extending his hand to Slander while she is still at some distance from him. Near him, on one side, stand two women—Ignorance and Suspicion. On the other side, Slander is coming up, a woman beautiful beyond measure, but full of malignant passion and excitement, evincing as she does fury and wrath by carrying in her left hand a blazing torch and with the other dragging by the hair a young man who stretches out his hands to heaven and calls the gods to witness his innocence. She is conducted by a pale ugly man who has piercing eye and looks as if he had wasted away in long illness; he represents envy. There are two women in attendance to Slander, one is Fraud and the other Conspiracy. They are followed by a woman dressed in deep mourning, with black clothes all in tatters—she is Repentance. At all events, she is turning back with tears in her eyes and casting a stealthy glance, full of shame, at Truth, who is slowly approaching.

When an extreme sports team from Sweden undertook a grueling adventure race through Ecuador, the teammates never expected to end up with a fifth member whose story would touch people’s hearts around the world.
Team Peak Performance, an adventure racing team, embarked upon the Adventure Racing World Championship, traversing the Andes, trekking through jungle and paddling on river. At times knee-deep in mud, the team members didn’t have the aid of GPS and were guided only by maps on the 430-mile journey. It was more like, ‘OK, he’s going with us. What should we do?’ We’re like, ‘We need to feed him otherwise he will die,” Lindnord said.
The dog, who they named Arthur, followed them through the rough terrain. When they put their kayaks in the river for the final leg of the race, organizers advised them against taking the dog, so, for his safety and theirs, they tried to leave him behind. Arthur threw himself into the river and started to swim alongside their departing kayaks, Lindnord added.
Deeply moved by the dog’s devotion, Lindnord turned his kayak and pulled Arthur up onto his lap.
“It was like, you know, ‘OK, you’re going with us,’ and that’s how it went,” Lindnord said. When the team crossed the finish line after racing for six days, Arthur was with them. Team Peak Performance ranked 12th overall in the competition that ended earlier this month, but theirs is the story that continues to resonate.
Lindnord, who doesn’t have pets at home, said he couldn’t leave Arthur behind. The dog had to be examined by a veterinarian, and Lindnord embarked upon rounds of phone calls, pleas and paperwork in order to get permission to take Arthur home with the team.
At times, the process was overwhelming.
“And I felt like, OK, if Arthur is putting so much energy to us, he deserves that I put this amount of energy on him,” he said.
A post on the team’s Facebook page said Lindnord “almost cried” when he learned Sweden would accept Arthur, and when Ecuadorian officials gave the application their support, he was able to get the final paperwork and take the dog home, where he arrived last week to a media blitz.
An article? Suggestion? Hafspajen (talk) 15:26, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
I think that Arthur is a nice story, Hafs, but, although you have lots of refs etc, it might get hit by the "One event" ruling. I'm fairly certain there was a merge discussion recently about an individual dog article; the dog had helped rescue lots of people from an earthquake or some such but it resulted in a merge to the event article? Others may feel differently, of course. SagaciousPhil - Chat 17:59, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Once upon a time there was a young woman who was traveling in a great forest with a family she served. While the party was traveling in the woods robbers ambushed the party and murdered everyone in sight, except for the young woman. She leapt out of the carriage and hid behind a tree and the robbers did not see her.
She was very sad that everyone had been murdered as she surveyed the carnage. She determined to sit under a tree and stay there and let what happened happen. After she had sat there a while, a white dove flew down with a key. It gave the key to the young woman and told her to use it to unlock a tree the dove indicated. Inside the tree would be enough food that the young woman would not be hungry. The young woman unlocked the tree and found bread and milk.
The girl was tired after this and was determined to find somewhere to sleep. The dove flew down once more with another key. The dove told her to open a different tree. Inside she would find a bed. The girl did open the tree and found a beautiful white bed. There she slept.
In the morning the dove came again. It gave her another key and told her in a different tree she would find clothes. She did this and found the most beautiful clothes. They were set with jewels and gold. The girl lived in the forest for a while. Each day the dove came and gave her everything she needed.
One day the dove came to her and asked her a favor. The girl agreed right away. The dove told her that she must go to a small house where a woman would be. The woman would speak to her, but the girl was not to respond. There would be a door that led to a different room. The girl must go in the other room and there would be many rings in there. The girl was to look for a plain ring amongst all the beautiful rings. When she found the ring she was supposed to take it to the dove as soon as possible.
The girl did as asked. She went to the house. The witch said good day, but the girl did not answer. The witch told her to go away, but she did not listen. The witch grabbed the girl’s gown, but the girl got away. The girl managed to get past the witch and into the other room. There were beautiful rings on a table there. The girl looked through them, but they were all ornate and not one of them was plain. She soon spied the witch, who was trying to get away with a bird cage. The girl followed after her.
The girl took the cage from the witch. There was a bird inside with a plain ring in its beak. The girl took the ring and went back to her spot in the forest. The girl thought the dove would come right away, but it did not. She sat down and leaned against a tree to wait for it. As she sat there the tree softened and twined around her. She was surprised because the branches weren’t branches anymore, but arms.
The tree was now a handsome man who embraced her and kissed her. The man told the girl that she had released him from the curse he had been under. He was turned into a tree by the witch and was able to be a dove for two hours each day. As long as the witch possessed the ring he was not able to turn back into a human. His servants and horses had also been turned into trees, but they were returned to their proper form. They went back to his kingdom, he was a prince, and they got married.
The End

The bit in the article about the date being set at 1804 to avoid angering coin collectors reminded me of a story about one of the first US ships to visit Japan- a priest onboard caused an incident by attempting to acquire some coins for his collection from a merchant, who refused as it was against the law. The captain confined the priest to the ship, but the local governor then sent a set to the captain. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 09:44, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

I am big into trying to recognize and give recognition to able assistance.
One of my main complaints about Wikipedia is that we do not give out as many 'attaboys' as we should. Editor retention is a big deal, and accolades should not be reserved for only the most deserving or visible. It's a systemic problem (and giving "thanks"—which is very nice—should not supplant barnstars, etc.)
We're all volunteers and a pat-on-the-head is not too much to give.
That's just my opinion. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:36, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, I got told off for writing that "artists "finished" their paintings once the canvases were hung on the walls." (this is the Royal Academy Varnishing Day).

On Wiki I can be anonymous. Checked how it works. They are asking after my real name, address, telephone number, and so on. If all that can be hacked than both e-mail and Wikipedia is more secure. Go.P. has an e-mail. I gave him permission to distribute it to you - Gamaliel, Resident Mario and Tony. Not to Pilot though. Isn't that possible to use that?

We want to discuss some potentially sensitive matters, so people may want privacy.

We also want to avoid third parties who have no interest in FC hijacking the discussion for their own ends or to create drama. Gamaliel (talk) 21:29, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
Oh. Thanks for explaining. What do you think of what Hafs said about Skype? CorinneSD (talk) 21:52, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
I don't give claims like password hacking any credence until I can find at least one reputable site that shows they work (Digiwonk, listed above, is mildly trustworthy, but their method requires access to the target's email or credit card information. If someone has one or both of those, Skype is the absolute least of your worries). Hafs, I don't use my real name, address, or telephone number on Skype. Just make something up! Ed[talk][majestic titan] 22:00, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
Huh. Doesn't sounds very honest. But there was also concerns of getting access to the target's email or credit card, yes. I don't know if you read those sites, or others - similar. Hafspajen (talk) 22:06, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
If you insist on privacy isn't an e-mail just as good? one can send email to several people. Hafspajen (talk) 22:22, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
Honest? Skype does not require you to use your real name. See their terms of use. As for email/credit card, I don't think you understand the article. To get access to a Skype account, the article advises that the break into the target's email or get their credit card information. That doesn't go the other way around.
Email is far slower, much more formal, and incredibly unwieldy with a large chain of people. I don't see why Skype is such a problem. Ed[talk][majestic titan] 11:44, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Well, I promised not to enable e-mail on Wiki for example, so I have to keep that promise. About enabling Skype, it is not something I discussed through, but I will check with our security. If they thin it is OK, I will. Otherwise you do already have an e-mail, only for communication purposes with you, Signpost redaction, through Go.P. --Hafspajen (talk) 12:43, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

I did meant shouting . Because I was thinking about something happened. Yesterday somebody was suddenly shouting insults at me - me, who he had never even met before; on the street and it was really unpleasant. Just because he thought I put my bicycle on the wrong place, who knows - probably HIS goat died or maybe his guinea pig. Or he lost his canary somewhere. But still, in Sweden we don't kill each others on the streets like Americans do (meaning that only an American can really think anyone would write a thing like that, nobody would think like this here.)

Racial, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ageist, religious, political, ethnic, national, sexual, or other epithets (such as against people with disabilities) directed against another contributor, or against a group of contributors. Disagreement over what constitutes a religion, race, sexual orientation, or ethnicity is not a legitimate excuse.
Responding to arguments by attacking a person's character, rather than to the content of their arguments. Note that it is not a personal attack to question an editor about their possible conflict of interest on a specific article or topic. However, speculating on the real-life identity of another editor may constitute outing, which is a serious offense.
Linking to external attacks, harassment, or other material, for the purpose of attacking another editor.
Comparing editors to Nazis, dictators, or other infamous persons. (See also Godwin's law.)
Accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence. Serious accusations require serious evidence. Evidence often takes the form of diffs and links presented on wiki.
Threats or actions which deliberately expose other Wikipedia editors to political, religious or other persecution by government, their employer or any others. Violations of this sort may result in a block for an extended period of time, which may be applied immediately by any administrator upon discovery. Admins applying such sanctions should confidentially notify the members of the Arbitration Committee of what they have done and why.
Threats to out (give out personal details about) an editor.
NO, this the above is NOT a personal attack.' If somebody is accusing me of making personal attacks, and doesn't even know 'what that is, I think one can actually explain what the concept is. The above is not: racial, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, ageist, religious, political, ethnic, national, sexual, or other epithets, it is not attacking a person's character, not outing and not harassment, or other material, it is simply information of WHAT personal attack IS. It is a simple information, one can be found everywhere on Wikipedia.

Why should my name in Signpost be linked to this old account, by WPP - an account that I never used since I abandoned it, linked here and also here? It is probably meant, judging by the Haf's bi annual meltdown comment to attract the attention to this account. But that was a fully declared, legitimate account that was abandoned 2013. It was started on the Swedish Wiki, and went global. It was simply merged with an other account started 2007 here on English Wiki. It is no crime and I identified myself in with both accounts for the administrators, and simply chose to keep the account with the most edits, and the other was abandoned. I never edited WP:Featured pictures with that account. Why does anyone need to dig this up, or link it in Signpost, that is the weird thing about it and that is the question here. Hafspajen (talk) 02:51, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

On reflection, I think his two supporters thought that the contributions of others were his, i.e. they took him at his own estimation. He did believe that he was responsible for the increase in readership, despite the fact that his writing was sub-optimal and was subject to trenchant criticism by at least three readers on the grounds of sexism, tendentiousness and and inappropriateness. Man's walking along a country lane, when he's attacked by a length of red tarmac. Bleeding from his broken nose, he staggers to the police station and reports the attack.

Panoramic shot of koinobori against Mt Fuji in Yamanashi during Golden Week 2015.
I thought I'd inflict my horrifying photography skills on you! I went fishing near here in Yamanashi during Golden Week a couple of days ago. It was the day after Children's Day, which is normally the last day of Golden Week, but one of the days fell on a weekend this year, so everyone had May 6th off in lieu. There was a hill covered with giant koinobori that we climbed up. The shot is actually much wider (almost 360°), but by the time I got the camera around the wind had died down, so I cut out all the koinobori that were on the right. If I hadn't been chasing four kids around I would have tried to get a better shot. Curly Turkey¡gobble! 00:43, 8 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for adding this to our increasing coverage of the Skagen Painters. I am however a bit baffled by the reference to the Jews in the Provenance section. As far as I know, Friede Springer was not a Jew and was not involved in the resistance movement. But if she was, you need to explain... --Ipigott (talk) 10:44, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) I checked, and the article says "His widow later, in 1986, donated the painting to the Danish people who together with the Danish resistance movement risked their own lives in 1943 to save the Danish Jews from perishing at the hands of the Nazis, managing to evacuate 7,220 of Denmark's 7,800 Jews, by sea to the nearby neutral Sweden." This is also the version prior to your editing the article- was there an earlier version with the reference you mentioned? Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 10:57, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
mmm… to me the two versions seem to have the same meaning, and neither imply the meanings above. Maybe it needs splitting into two or more sentences if it isn't clear- obviously she wasn't in the resistance as she was born in 1942, and probably isn't Jewish. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 16:32, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Friede Springer was not personally involved, no. It was the Danish fishermen, and other Danish civilans that brought the Jewish people to the harbour and shipped them over by night in small boats. We still have people living here who remember that day... They were rushed in covered carriages to the boats waiting, and people shouted at them to hurry because the German soldiers were hunting after them. They went through the hands of different people, who was building a live-saving chain. Many of them left their houses and couldn't bring with them anything ... Friede Springer's husband, Axel, however was for promoting reconciliation of Jews and Germans . Hafspajen (talk) 16:33, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Welcome back, we hope, Hafspajen. But was it by accident or design that your most recent edit removed the tweaks I had made to the provenance section? Awien (talk) 17:18, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi, Awien. Could you read the above? The point is showing that Friede Springer was not a Jew and was not involved in the resistance.. The other, well, that depends... Hafspajen (talk) 17:20, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
I don't believe I changed the meaning - all I did was tweak the phraseology … Awien (talk) 17:29, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
I don't mind at all. Ipigott thought that it should be reformulated. I just tried to clarify that Friede Springer wasn't personaly involved. You may tweak it again, Awien. Just bear in mind what Ipigott said. Hafspajen (talk) 17:36, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
I think this part: In 1986 Springer's widow donated the painting to the Danish people, who together with theDanish resistance movement risked their own lives in 1943 can be read that Friede was risking her life... Revert me, just clarify this somehow. Go ahead. Hafspajen (talk) 17:38, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Skilt ved maleriet Sommeraften ved Skagen Sønderstrand på Skagens Museum
What does anyone think of this: In 1986 Springer's widow, not herself Jewish, donated the painting to the Danish people in remembrance of their participation in the 1943 rescue of the Danish Jews. At that time Danish civilians together with the Danish resistance movement risked their own lives to evacuate 7,220 of Denmark's 7,800 Jews by sea to nearby neutral Sweden.

Hafspajen, hasn't your wiki-break been long enough? There's a whole lot of people who miss you here. Please come back. CorinneSD (talk) 14:01, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
Yes, it's just no fun anymore without you. And DrMies' page is just one unbroken wall of text. And FC is now full of racist remarks about crackers. Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 09:10, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
Xanthomelanoussprog, I have been told to stay away from Signpost and the editor, unless I go Skype. I simply have nowhere to bring up this issue. And I don't believe in a group editors going off-wiki for discussing issues there; - like the Signpost editorial staff editors - instead of doing it on-Wiki. Also I think text should be rewritten and not copied from articles, too. The main issue here has always been that it is required per Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. But any times the issue was raised:
It was met by incivility by this editor, some diff above; mixed with occasional apologies, and then it was starting all over again, while nobody else took the issue seriously. I did try to discuss this several times, nobody listened. Calling someone ungrateful, unproductive, rude, childish, borderline, full of shit, ridiculous and crazy are WP:Personal attacks.
Nobody took the copyvio issue seriously either, nor the incivility the editor reacted with towards me. But it is required per WP:CWW:
Not everything copied from one Wikipedia page to another requires attribution. If the re-user is the sole contributor of the text at the other page, attribution is not necessary. Content rewritten in one's own words does not need attribution. However, duplicating material by other contributors that is sufficiently creative to be copyrightable under US law (as the governing law for Wikipedia), requires attribution.
See at WP:CWW. As stated I did try to discuss this with several occasions, nobody listened. Editor was reacting with increasing incivility when pointed out, escalating more and more, every time. There is no need to gather evidence (here is one), the whole last couple Signpost editions are full with bits and parts of copivio. Last it was me who was the author copied. But it went so far that Signpost chief editors were telling me not to criticize editor but stay away from him. Like here, this, for example, in the current Signpost version is entirely taken from the article Shakespearean tragedy. In the current version is not even a link provided to the article. Is not even linked to painter, nor tho the to right article, King Lear. Some of the descriptions include unexplained terms and generally look taken from somewhere. However providing a link to article is not attribution. Nobody ever discussed anything with me, about the issues raised above. And let's not forget the other parallel issue: the incivility, that erupted with every occasion this was brought up. I was told to discus it on Skype or nowhere. Now the editor was forbidding me to contact him, and the Signpost redaction is going off-Wiki to discuss where I never joined them. The e-mail I enabled for the Signpost-folks, it collapsed and is not working any more.
Hafspajen, disruptive editor
Is this: One of the most famous paintings of all time?
All this caused that I now have been accused by being disruptive, causing months of passive aggressive and intentional attacks, mainly because of the other editor said so, without taking up any diffs or providing any evidence for it. He never digged up any evidence himself at all, but expected everybody to believe him without any evidence at all. And actually in fact, there is no such diffs to support his claims. But I think some people indeed believed him. Like most of the Signpost editorial staff, I guess (guess because I have no idea what's going on behind the scene).
This is the kind of editor who was accusing me off being disruptive, but who for example placed an image of a fruitcake on a talk page of an user who identifies as being gay - (fruitcake is here), and who is involved in plenty of conflicts and controversies, an editor who (without providing any evidence for his claims) requires simply everybody just believes him. The whole Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#User:WPPilot is worth reading trough. It was bad of me to AGF him so easily I did, I should have checked the rather huge amount of conflicts he was already involved, when started editing Signpost. Others should have done that too. But the only thing anybody seemingly ever cared or remarked on was me offending (?) the editor, well, that was the typo. Now pick your choice if you believe that was trolling or not. One editor gifted with analytic ability remarked something here - and I say, she is totally right about my spelling (unfortunately) ... I think it is rather more balanced than the comment The user has now called me a potential murderer, though it looks like many believed the later comment.
One of the most famous paintings of all time?
And may I ask why current Signpost Featured content is saying Napoleon Crossing the Alps is one of the most FAMOUS paintings OF ALL TIME?
Because it is simply not true.
But under a whole week, nobody ever noticed it.
This newspaper is going out all over Wiki and it has a tremendous NPOV mistake in it. Guess who put than into it.
If one chose to use big peacock words than at least use them well, and truthfully. Napoleon Crossing the Alps, is one of the very moderately famous paintings, but no way one of the most famous paintings of all time. I would say that it is not that famous at all. Check refs.
Some find it stiff and lifeless, proof of David’s ineptness at capturing movement. Some see it not as art, but propaganda, pure and simple. Some snigger at its overblown, action-packed, cliff-hanging momentousness, with shades of “Hi ho Silver, away!” Some have it down as a sort of beginning of the end moment in David’s career, before he officially became Napoleon’s artist-lackey.
The only thing one might safely say of that painting that it is one of the most well know (famous*) portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte . (There are other; just as famous portraits of Napoleon, by the way.) It is a good painting, it deserves to be a FP, BUT IT IS not one of the most famous paintings of all time. This kind of remarks give bad reputation to Signpost, if any editor who knows about art discovers it, and there is a fair amount of art presented there every week.
And
I do think that before theses issues started with the editor joining, our work made Signpost more interesting and fun, and we all worked together fine, under extended periods of time, Adam was sharp, witty and funny, Xanty was doing interesting things and being crazy with his comments, and me contributing on arts, cultural topics, botanic, and occasionally being funny too. We all were getting along greatly. Observe that I never had any issues with any of those, ever, ever. It was great, and may good editions came out of it: [24], [25], [26], [27], [28].
Also mark that I did cooperated creatively with a huge amount editors, on articles, FPs, DYKs and so on. I am not known as a person who can't work together with others, as the Signpost redaction is now made to believe; me being constantly involved in a disturbing amount of conflicts with other editors.
Nobody seems to noticed, pointed out or recognized this fact in this conflict.
It was instead Ed who stepped in a rather unfortunate way, at times. His remarks were at times not to well formulated or researched.
This went on parallel to this was the other issue. Ed remarked, though in a polite way, that I made a sexist comment. But if anyone checks the definition of sexism: Sexism or gender discrimination is prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender - than the comment I made in Signpost about an older woman having a relationship with a younger man that can work, well, going by that definition, in fact it is the opposite of a sexist comment. There was no need to remove that. Using the word girl instead ladies, well, might been a point. Burt I had certain difficulties convincing anyone about comment not being sexist. Even bigger difficulties convincing him or Signpost editorial staff I was not trolling. That is kinda hard to digest. And how can I if they only discuss things on Skype?
Copying
About copying; At top of Signpost it say: Text may be adapted from the respective articles and lists; refer to their page histories for attribution. It doesn't say: Text may be copied from the respective articles and lists without no attribution.
About
going off Wiki, WP:EEML
13) All editors are reminded that the editorial process and dispute resolution must take place on Wikipedia itself, using the article talk pages and project space for this purpose. No discussion held off-wiki can lead to a valid consensus, the basis of our editorial process. Off-wiki coordination is likely to lead to echo chamberswhere there is a false appearance of neutrality and consensus.
(And skip the typo thing, my intention was different, but it is up to those to judge who are perfect, and never make mistakes. Show me something else).
Thank you all who said kind words above. Dr. Blofeld, you gave me a Wiki-defender barnstar on 8 April - I am afraid, I didn't managed to well this time. Apart from my personal feelings seriously hurt, the copivio is still an ongoing issue, and I am kinda banned from discussing it for different reasons. Hafspajen (talk) 15:15, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi Haffy- I came across this bank or promissory note with a bunch of early paper notes from Sweden. There was some comment about it being for commodities, but not necessarily reliable. This is not in any of the general reference books and I wondered if you might be able to translate what it says (Google translator is often useless), and/or if you had any other thoughts on it. Many thanks.--Godot13 (talk) 22:16, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

I think it translates as "Diogenes seeking an honest man"; it was painted in 1905 (?) and the artist died in 1910 so licensing should be okay. I hope that's what you were asking, Gerda? SagaciousPhil - Chat 14:48, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
Could you perhaps add that on the commons? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:23, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
I've amended the licence on Commons to what I hope is the right one. The "translation" appears as the "title" of the picture on the Commons description file (that is the name the picture is given in the source of the image). SagaciousPhil - Chat 15:43, 6 June 2015 (UTC)

I wanted to revert all three edits to Gian Lorenzo Bernini because periods were added to captions that were not complete sentences. [29], which is not according to the MOS at WP:CAPFRAG, third bulleted item. But since I can't judge either the selection or placement of images, I wasn't sure about that.

Hello, I am working on a pet project to help digitize information about the field of metalsmithing+jewelry. I started with making a page for Art jewelry forum (AJF), and have a list of artists that I would like to make pages for as well. The AJF page has been nominated for deletion because it is questioned if the organization is "notable". I am reaching out to you because I saw that you edited some pages that relate to studio craft, and thought you may have an informed opinion (unlike the mathematician who nominated the page for deletion) about whether or not it is a "notable organization". If you have an opinion, one way or another, please way in on the articles for deletion discussion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Art_jewelry_forumClarefinin (talk) 20:23, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Hello Hafspajen, thanks for your recent edits to the Cultural depictions of dogs in Western art page. I had transferred to that page a number of art pieces from the Dog page and added the link from there to the Cultural depictions page. It is my opinion that if we are going to reflect any art on the Dog page, then representative samples and words should be provided by someone with an eye for it - which I do not - from the Cultural depictions page, rather than have people simply deposit their favourite pix on the Dog page. Please feel free to do with what I transferred as you see fit. If you have a moment, you might like to provide a sentence or two here: Dogs#Dogs in art. Additionally, I do not know if what is currently pictured there is the best reflection, although it is a nice ancient work. Regards, William Harris • talk • 22:32, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Your WP friends are waiting for you.
Hafs, please reconsider, and continue to participate at WP. I've told you before, but I'll tell you again, that your contributions are invaluable and much appreciated by those who can recognize it, ie., your friends, and your presence and delightful comments, images, edits, and assistance are appreciated and enjoyed by many. Don't let one disrespectful editor, and a few clumsy friends, get you down. CorinneSD (talk) 20:26, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
OK, I will think of it. But not now. I don't feel like sharing space and arguing with editors and admins who support an editor who is an indefinitely blocked editors sock, who with a range of various issues, while they start lashing out against me who never did any of these things. It gives me a rather weird feeling.
I don't like people who believe everything they hear either. WPPilot was constantly appealing to extenuating circumstances and was pleading for support and understanding instead of shifting the focus to his own behaviour, and tried to put the responsibility on others instead of learning from his mistakes and he was repeating them, the same ones, again and again. When he was pointed to them he responded with anger, he refused to address the problem and, instead, attacked the messenger - and voilá - some did even believed that too.
And, if anyone any more comes here on this page, telling me that I constantly attacked that user, DON'T COME HERE WITHOUT ANY DIFFS AND EVIDENCE, THANK YOU. And find out first what is the difference between attacks and raising a problem for discussion. I have very little interest in this project any more, it just feels like a rotten place right now. Hafspajen (talk) 05:00, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
Well said, Hpj—this is carefully constructed and elegantly composed. Keep away until you are feeling that you are deprived by not contributing to this project!

Also, there were many moments of: "I am sorry, I will not do this again" involved, showing remorse and just starting everything all over again. Many "I am sorry, please forgive me" - and then continuing exactly were it was left off. Nothing ever changed, it was then I started to demand changes instead of "I am sorry" -es. Hafspajen (talk) 16:48, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
Considered now
Thank you Gareth Griffith-Jones, you are a real friend. I was now thinking enough. I think retiring for the right decision.
I was upset enough, for this and that - but the main issue is still there. The fact that I was the one attacked by WPPilot, and there was plenty of incivility from his part, none from my side. Nobody said a word. And, and here comes the poor judgment of some users: if this wasn't enough, he was throwing the blame on me.
For all the things he did, he made me look like I was the one commiting all those things. This is a dangerous and nefarious game, that was played, and I do not wish to be part of this any more. Some people understood this from the begining, but said nothing. Wrong, - as Montanabw once said, there is a time to speak and not to be silent. Some understood later, well, it's better late than never. Some didn't understood, and still don't, too bad. Pity that people believe words instead of facts, but I guess - it's their choice. Hafspajen (talk) 13:16, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
I was travelling and had poor and sporadic internet access when whatever it was happened, so knew nothing about it. What I do know is that WPP is banished, which is vindication for you, and it would be a shame if the project were to lose as knowledgeable contributor as you.
