"Hitler" Speech

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi, in response to your refdesk query on a radical tricking an audience with a speech by Hitler: the person who gave the speech was Emmett Grogan. He describes the incident in his autobiography 'Ringolevio'.

A bientôt, Rhinoracer (talk) 15:00, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for finding that for me! I'll go and find that book. Lesgles (talk) 03:55, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Beriberi#Etymology

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Sure I can help with this. I'm in a tight schedule, just give me 24h. FYI there's a Sinhalese physician who edit sometimes in Wikipedia. Drop him a message if you wish to expand Beriberi#Etymology. --♪♫ ĽąĦĩŘǔ ♫♪ ^{walkie-talkie | tool box} 17:50, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Excellent additions! Tim riley (talk) 21:27, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Thanks! I've added some info on his life from the Jenny McMorris biography and hope to do some more soon. It would be great to get this to a GA or FA. Lesgles (talk) 23:16, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

This gets better and better. Let me know if I can be of any help with anything. Tim riley (talk) 23:26, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Mmmm, precise attention to detail

Thanks for fixing the curly apostrophes left in La Cousine Bette from the French Wikisource. Please enjoy this donut as a token of my appreciation. Scartol • Tok 18:59, 5 May 2009 (UTC);

Talk:Article 49 of the French Constitution

Latest comment: 14 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

Salut ! I added a comment to your concern about the word « gouvernement » on the talk page noted above. — By the way, your translation of the article is generally excellent. I have made several very minor copyedits only to clarify it. Keep up your fine work ! Bien amicalement, Charvex (talk) 06:57, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

Hello again ! I was making some more little edits to the translation and came up with some alternative English words that, perhaps, have closer meanings to the ones frequently used in the original French article that you may find helpful. I put them on the « Talk » page above. — By the way, I agree with your comments. I become exhausted simply considering best choices for the words in technical articles like this one ! Cordialement, Charvex (talk) 09:07, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Ten Commandments in Roman Catholicism

Hi Lesgles, I reverted your edit to the "numbering" section of this article because it changed a referenced sentence to reflect information not included in the reference. I will look for a reference and try to readd it later or you can do same. Please do not change a referenced sentence though unless you have consulted the reference to see that the meaning includes what you are adding. Thanks, NancyHeise ^talk 00:45, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

(Resolved on article talk page). Lesgles (talk) 18:31, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for your terrific help on this article. I hope to work with you some more on this or other articles. I paged through your user page article list, all of which are very interesting especially Tolstoy. Let me know if you plan to take these to GA or FA and need a peer review, I would love to help out in some way. NancyHeise ^talk 14:12, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
