Adam, I can understand how you might feel about the extremely well researched and valuable article that you've imported from WP (to which I assume that you've made substantial research contributions), but mass reversion of good faith edits without debate is a practice we want to discourage. It's my intention (after a short wait to allow some deliberation) to reverse your reversal. Can I ask you to then dialogue via the talk pages about the issues involved.  Constable [[User:David Tribe|David Tribe]] 07:59, 25 February 2007 (CST)

Apologies that vandals created strange results in your watchlist.

Revision as of 09:10, 25 February 2007

Adam -- To answer your questions as best as I can. The photo issue has been discussed and is being worked on. The problem is copyright; so many of the wikipedia images have dubious status. I am not sure of the exact status of this work, but the technical people have been working on it. Check out the forums, http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/board,18.0.html, someone there can almost defintely give you more info.

Your live article looks fine to me.

Send the bug to http://forge.citizendium.org/gf/project/caesarwiki/tracker/ . I suspect there are more pressing bugs, but the technical people are keeping track at least.

Oh yes, plenty of teething problem. You need to register separately for the forums (and probably for the tracker, I haven't used it). However, the registration is easier for the forums as manual activation isn't required. Just register, I think there is a confirmation email, and you are set.

Saw your note, and would enjoy collaboration, although I'm a bit out of HIV this last ten years. Strangely I have 12,000 photos of Italy, mainly buildings, cities, statues, but not Roma regrettably, which Ill have to fix the expensive but best way. David Tribe 08:54, 26 January 2007 (CST)

Vandalism

Apologies that vandals created strange results in your watchlist. Be assured it was vandals; I was one of the Constables dealing with them, and the new registration procedures and other security measures were introduced to stop them.
