Spoken Wikipedia: Copyright
[edit]I'm currently about halfway through editing, but I had to stop a few days ago when some stuff came up. By the time I got back to editing, 2 or 3 sections had been added. Because it's so out of date, and because my voice wasn't very good (read 'was horrible') on the day I recorded, I'd be happy to turn the project over to you.
Here's a few hints:
- As far as I can tell from those unintelligible IPA symbols, 'prima facie' is pronounced prima 'fuh-SHE'. DO NOT say prima 'facey', as when I listened to my recording of this, I almost fell out of my chair laughing at how stupid I sounded.
- Make a friend who speaks and reads German. See section 6.1
Have fun.
One more thing: I've updated the info for currently active projects. You're now shown as working on Copyright. Lx45803 (talk) 22:14, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
onomatopoeic TARDIS
[edit]Hello, I changed the spelling back to "onomatopoeic", which is correct, but I didn't notice at the time that "onomatopoetic" (a form I hadn't seen before) is also correct, and means the same thing. The only difference is that onomatopoeic is the adjectival form of onomatopoeia (adapted into English from Greek by way of Latin), whereas onomatopoetic is the adjectival form of onomatopoesis (adapted into English directly from Greek). The Latin-filtered version is, in my experience, more common, but both spellings are correct. -Father Inire (talk) 01:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Aptera not a microcar
[edit]Here is why I don't think Aptera is a microcar:
- I could find no external reference listing Aptera as a microcar. According to Aptera themselves, their vehicle is officially a motorcycle in California.
- Other historical and modern microcar models are noted for their miniscule size. The Aptera is as large as a standard two-seater automobile in capacity, track width, wheelbase, and tire size.
- There is no official "microcar" vehicle size class in the US. There is a "two-seater" class and a "minicompact" class at the low end. Other countries have a city car class.
The best course of action is to ask Aptera what class it falls in. (In my opinion, it is in a class by itself!) If you don't mind, I'll move this conversation to the Aptera talk page; it is worthy of wider discussion. --IanOsgood (talk) 18:51, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Crash counting
[edit]The article Crash counting has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Does not satisfy WP:GNG. This subject is no more notable than the deleted SpadFS article, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SpadFS. "Crash counting" was invented by the author of SpadFS and appears to be not used anywhere else in computer science/storage literature.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. -- intgr [talk] 11:25, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
