Soeben habe ich festgestellt, dass Du unter dem Eintrag über Monthey (VS) ein falsches Bild eingestellt hast. Das Bild zeigt nicht Monthey, da Monthey mehrheitlich in der Rhone-Ebene liegt und die Kirche, gut versteckt inmitten von Häusern, im alten Dorfkern liegt. Ich habe Monthey am vergangenen Donnerstag für wikimedia intensiv fotografiert. Du kennst mich indirekt, weil Du im Artikel über Stans (mein Heimatort) Fotos von mir übernommen hast, wofür ich Dir danke.

hi I see I haven't done a good job on my refs for the simon marriott page (its my first attempt) He is a member of the royal society of art, has a published book which is available on amazon and has been a recipient of the Florence trust residency (a fairly prestigious award) so these are the refs I wanted/thought would make him an acceptable candidate for an article. His "the Society for Curious Thought" already appears on wiki any advice gratefully received - andrew Yeltep (talk) 17:42, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi, I tried to create a page on Mu sigma. This is a pure play analytics company with high growth rate. This company was in inc list of fastest growing companies two years consecutively as well as ranked as No.1 KPO organization as per Data monitor. Most of the references are independent, reliable, published sources like bloomberg, wall street journal, Data monitor.
It will be very helpful for me if you provide the specific reason for declining the addition, such that I can improve the article by incorporating them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Menotmeterm6 (talk • contribs) 19:57, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hey, thanks a lot for helping with the article; I don't have nearly enough time to complete it, as you can see. However, I really hope you weren't planning on keeping the copyvios in the description boxes, because I find it's much harder to formulate into our own words based on that small bit of text than if we were to go off of the original text. Then again, if you were just copy-pasting, that's a horrible idea and we'd have to take it down. EricLeb01 (Page | Talk) 03:39, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Hey Toby, thanks for re-assessing & creating the article on This Wicked Tongue. I realize that I could have created the article, as I did with Nancy Zhou and Hugo Guinness, but I am not familiar with how AFC works. I wanted to see the full process, and also a second opinion on whether the article should be created. I think you do a move to make the articles, so the attribution for the others is probably wrong... There are probably other clean up type things you do in AFC after creating an article.

Hello Tobyc75, thank you for your message. I think it's confusing that these towns are in the category. Neither in the French nor in the German version these towns are listed in the category. For example, in Montreux there are several cultural properties of national significance (class A), that does not mean the Montreux city is also in the list of cultural propertis as a whole.

I would respectfully suggest that your time spent on Template:Infobox Swiss town is not well spent. Why does there need to be a seperate template for Swiss towns? Would it not be easier to use the standard template ((Infobox settlement)). If that does not work properly, it would be better to work on this template which would then benefit all countries' towns.

Hi. A little background first; I was browsing trough Romansh speaking municipalities of Switzerland when I come across the Donat article. It states that when it recently merged with other municipalities, the other municipalities names were changed to Romansh because the majority of the population spoke the language. So I got interested because there is really few municipalities that have a majority of Romansh speakers. The article originally stated that as of December 2012 the population was over 7500 people. So it was implied that there was a population of more than 3300 Romansh speakers in a single municipality. That was impresive. So I scroll down to actual tables of habitants by language, and to my astonishment it said that 106 people spoke Romansh, and that it was indeed the majority. I couldn't believe that from 2000 to 2012 there could have been an immigration of over 3000 people over to the remote alpine village. So I checked the official Donat municipality website (which indeed is written in Romansh). I do not speak the language, but I'm a native Spanish speaker, with a good level of French and German, so it wasn't hard to read that the municipality currently has 234 habitants. So then I checked the reference number one, entered the search parameters for permanent residents of the Donat muncipality of the Hinterrhein district, and it returned 209 habitants for 2012. Clearly, somewhere along the line of the history article (hopefully recently) there was a vandal that introduced factual errors. I checked the history and... I found out that the edit that introduced the errors was yours. At first I didn't noticed, it was just a cleanup and an introduction of templates using AWB, seemed legit. And I'm sure that you meant no harm. But the fact is that the introduced community identification number was wrong. The SFOS number for Donat, Switzerland is 3705, and not 3722 as you introduced. 3722 is the SFOS number for Domat (with an M), a municipality in the Imboden district, within the same canton as Donat (with an N), the real subject of the article.
I have not used AWB. I know what it is, but I somehow have never convinced myself about using it. I guess it was AWB that erroneously chosed Domat instead of Donat. But, what I'm trying to say here, is please be careful about the edits YOU make with AWB. Yes, it is the tool that is actually making the edits, but ultimately it is you who is responsible for the edits. I also know that these edits were over 3 years ago, but that is precisely why this is so serious. Because you are a respectable wikipedian, and because it was assumed that edits made with AWB were safe, there was no reliable source checking. I urge you to check the edits you have made that have been suggested by AWB, in order to assure that you have not introduced further good faith factual errors. Thank you very much.

Toby, I saw that you reverted my move of Gruyère District to Gruyère (Swiss district). I did not make that move on a whim, as I indicated in both my edit summary and at Talk:District#Article_naming_consistency. The title as you restored it is awkward in English, especially with district capitalized. In English, the title form of that district would be District of Gruyère. This is an issue I've encountered often on the English Wikipedia in the wake of well-meaning non-native English speakers applying awkward naming conventions to articles. The reason you cite in your edit summary--Every other District article in the country uses this format.--is not a valid basis for maintaining an awkward article title. I wish you'd discussed this with me and/or others first. Eric talk 21:04, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
Hi, I just want to say that despite us disagreeing on the value of Switzerland having its own infobox and the design of it, you're doing fantastic work on going through the communes of Switzerland with quality expansion. It's such important work which I've long been aware of needs doing so keep up the great work, it means a lot to the project. Consistency for me is very important across wikipedia, that's why I'm in favour of infobox settlement, not that I don't value what you've done, and I'm sure the others who support the infobox settlement would agree.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:48, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi Toby, Came across the translation, didn't read through the whole, entire thing yet. Although "Schlacht" does mean battle, it also means slaughter. Because (and the German wikipedia page also uses the term Pogrom) these were not battles (which would generally indicate "fair play") as such, but rather pogroms, I can't agree with the translation you used. You stated in parentheses "Jews' Battle". Slaughter (Massacre) of the Jews would be more appropriate.
While it's up to the individual reader to try to discern variable meanings for a single word, I don't think we can rely on an English-only speaker to fully appreciate the need to distinguish the subtlety in meaning as it pertains to this article. It may be taken at face value that it was a battle, and not a slaughter/massacre.
Therefore, I would disagree with your choice of translating Judenschlacht to Battle of the Jews. Slaughter may be substituted with the word "massacre". So, for clarity, I would encourage you to change to Jewish Massacre. I'm not comfortable editing your translation (yet), because I am still very new to the wikipedia community.

Thanks for all the help on the Schauenburg Castle articles. I have a simple question though, what happened to this information?
"The castle was built during the 11th century by Duke Berthold II to stop traders trying to evade the tolls of the Rhine River[1] and was expanded during 1200. It has a protective border around the east side and a moat to the west.[2] The castle then came to ruins in 1730. The Schauenburg Castle is maintained and protected because of Emils von Schauenburg (1826-1908)."
References

I kindly ask you to reconsider the rejection of the article for the following reasons: a) I am wondering why the article about him in German Wikipedia has been approved, but the English, more elaborate and source based version, is being rejected. See the German version here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siddhartha_Kaul.
b) As for your comments to the awards: all awards, except for the Princess Asturias Award, have been awarded to Mr Kaul personally, not to the organization. Unfortunately, I could not find a press article or similar source to all of these recognitions, since some of them have been awarded to him more than 20 years ago. I am referring to: Sri Lankan National Honour (bestowed upon Mr Kaul personally for his work in the country), the three honours received in Vietnam (all honours addressed to a single person, not an entire organization), two titles of honour received in Cambodia (special titles of honour bestowed upon a single person). I added further references on the awards, as far as possible.
Thank you very much in advance!
Hi,
Thanks for taking a look at the draft entry for the Swiss Museum of Games. I've updated the article with a couple of additional references. Also, I couldn't help noticing there is an entry on the same museum in the French version of the wikipedia, but there are no references at all supporting the French entry. Is there a greater burden of notability for English language entries?

Hello, we are the archivists at Lombard Odier in Geneva and wanted to improve the article relating to the bank, which is quite sub-par. We proposed a new version on the talk page, and the editor who replied to us kindly suggested we see with people from the Wikiproject Switzerland, where your user name is listed (we since also made a first round of improvements and fixed some formatting issues): here is the new draft.
Unfortunately the project's talk page sees little activity, and I'd like to come back to the editor with a strong consensus on the Project Switzerland side - hence the present message.
To be clear, the very same text has been posted in other languages (French, Spanish, German, and Italian), with editors there helpfully pitching in/editing afterwards[2][3] (as you know, German also implements gesichtete Versionen, so this text had to be reviewed by someone before appearing publicly). We're entirely fine with the article living its own life and being edited by anyone, we understand it and actually like the idea that people can research and improve content (we are big readers too!).
So if you have time, would you mind having a look and telling me if you see anyhing of concern, changes to be done, or if you think the new text is ready to go live here as well?
