Hello, Guaka. Welcome to Wikipedia.

Thanks for your contributions. I'm having serious trouble locating fr + nl for List of company registers, since I speak only very little french and no dutch at all. If you could google into this, it'd be great. List of company registers is very important for Consumerium --Juxo 12:47 5 Jul 2003 (UTC)


Hello Guaka,
I too am Dutch and I just happen to see your contribution on VPRO. I think you should refrase some sentences to make it a bit more clear for non-Dutch people. If you don't mind I'll do it for you. And, on your personal page: maybe you want to change 'disprove' into 'disapprove' ?

Hello Guaka, I'm afraid that my programming skills may not yet be sufficient to even attempt to extract data from Wikipedia's SQL files with Python. My programming experience consists entirely of one C programming class, and although I am trying to teach myself some stuff over the summer, I have never seen an SQL file or a Python program at work. However, keeping that in mind, I will do what I can :-) --Nelson 16:12 11 Jul 2003 (UTC)


Why did you redirect structural information theory to a page with every word in the title capitalized? Wikipedia article titles are not capitalized without reason. A lot of us keep moving such articles by newbies to pages with appropriately non-capitalized words. In the text of the article, "structural information theory" was not written in capital letters.

Well, I know. But how can I easily change the title of a page? Also, I started writing it non-capitalized, and then I realized that the capitalization is not really necessary. Guaka 18:02, 19 Aug 2003 (UTC)

Guaka, thanks for adding the Wiki links into my user page, but it wasn't necessary! I know how to link to wiki articles but i left out the links because I want people to view my page (and read it all), not click off to a page about a band or a movie. No harm done :-) but if I'd wanted links I would've put them there!! Regards, --Richard Corbin 22:13, Aug 25, 2003 (UTC)


Hello. I notice you've linked several articles to filter. But filter is a disambiguation page. I've changed some of those links so that they go to electronic filter. Michael Hardy 18:55, 25 Sep 2003 (UTC)


Hi - I noticed your edit on the anti-semitism page. Since I was the one who added the bit you asked about, I thought I'd contact you about it. Looking back on what I wrote, I think I probably put too much emphasis on it, but my main source was a statement by Abraham Foxman, the director of the Anti-Defamation League: "These findings undoubtedly create the climate in which anti-Semitism flourishes and in which governments rationalize it." I was putting particular emphasis on the last part, taking this to mean that governments are merely trying to disguise/rationalize anti-semitism (presumably with arguments that it's merely political opposition to Israel). In retrospect, however, the case looks a lot weaker than I thought it was, so I have no objection to the removal of the statement (as someone has already done). (The source of the League's statements is "http://www.adl.org/PresRele/ASInt_13/4390_13.htm", just in case you'd like to read the whole thing... again, I think I overemphasised a minor part.) Thanks. - Vardion 12:35, 22 Nov 2003 (UTC)
