Articles to expand

Hi Eileen. There are four articles I created in Faroese that need to be expanded: Fever, Body Language, X, Aphrodite. Regards. Hypuxylun 20. jan 2012 kl. 01:58 (UTC)

speedy deletion

Hi Eileen! Some admin could look into the category for speedy deletion. I think category Strikingarboð is the category for this because template Delete causes this categorization. It seems no admin have looked into this category for months. Greetings Stefan Knauf 21. feb 2012 kl. 20:35 (UTC)

Hi Stefan. I have deleted all the pages, images and categories, which were in the category for speedy deletion. I have deleted some pages there not so long ago, but I wasn't sure about some of the pages, but I guess it was ok to delete them, most of them were empty and replaced by others. Best regards EileenSanda 21. feb 2012 kl. 22:39 (UTC)

Hi Eileen! Thanks! I hadn't look at all things which were in this category. As I cannot read Faeroese, I cannot really check anyway. I can only admit my responsibility for the six deletions where I put the nomination onto the page, this deletions are certainly correct. Greetings Stefan Knauf 22. feb 2012 kl. 00:38 (UTC)

Ok, and anyway, if I have deleted anything which shouldn't have been, it isn't too late for another admin to revert it, as far as I know. But I think it was ok to delete everything which had the tag "strika", and it had been there for quite a while anyway. Heilsan EileenSanda 22. feb 2012 kl. 13:20 (UTC)

Liten konflikt?

Hej Eileen!

Kan du hålla ett öga på vad som händer med grenen Monako? Det verkar som om två brukare har olika åsikter om vilken version av en bild som skall ligga där, och ägnar sig åt ett långsamt "redigeringskrig". Det verkar inte så farligt just nu, men om det blir värre, så behövs kanske ett ingripande av en administratör.

Med vänlig hälsning, Jörgen B (talk) 14. mar 2012 kl. 17:07 (UTC)

Hej Jørgen, ja, jeg har lagt mærke til det, men jeg ved ikke hvem der har ret, ved du? Den ene påstår, at den andens billede er brud på copyright, men billedet har ligget på Wikimedia i flere år og er på flere artikler, det burde vel være der, at "krigen" opstod og ikke her? Hvis du finder ud af, hvem der har ret, og kommer frem til, hvat vi bør gøre, så siger du bare fra igen.

Med venlig hilsen EileenSanda (talk) 14. mar 2012 kl. 17:36 (UTC)

Trappubrøðurnir

Hi Eileen!

I've just translated the article Effo to de:Effo, but there is still one question: Can you tell me what "Trappubrøðurnir" are? Literally translated it seems to mean "Treppenbrüder" ("stair brothers") which is used to describe members of a "Brøðrasamkoman" in German language.

Is this right? Was Effo founded by Free Church members?

Thank you very much in advance and "farvæl" to the lovely Faroes! --JøMa (talk) 1. apr 2012 kl. 21:02 (UTC)

Hi JøMa, I actually didn't know, what the name "Trappubrøðurnir" means, I have often heard about them, but I newer knew what the name meant, or I had forgotten. But I have asked the question on Facebook, and I got this answer: "Trappubrøðurnir vóru av Trapputrøðni í Havn. Tað er har sum SMS er í dag..., men hvar hendan trappan hevur verið veit eg ikki, hevur neyvan nakað við aðrar brøður at gera. Stendur uttan iva okkurt um teir í havnasøguni."<br

In English: "Trappubrøðurnir came from Trapputøðin in Tórshan. It is where the shopping mall SMS is today..., but I don't know where this stair is, and I don't think that it has got anything to do with some other brothers. No doubth that the book "Havnarsøga" (History of Tórshavn) write about them."
If I hear something else, I will let you know :) Kind regards EileenSanda (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 10:03 (UTC)

One more answer from one of my Facebook friends: "Tað vóru brøðurnir Dánjal, Petur og Niclas Haraldsen, av Trappuni í Havn, ið keyptu fyrstu sluppina til Føroya, "Fox", í 1872". In English: The brothers Dánjal, Petur and Niclas Haraldsen from Av Trappuni (From the Stairs) in Tórshavn, bought the first Faroese smack to the Faroes, which was called Fox, in 1872.

Hi Eileen, thank you very much for your research – how exciting that even Faroese don't know the answer by heart! :o)

Yes, I found that "Fox" story on the internet, too. So we know those brothers did some trading, bought oil an ships. Obviously, "Trappubrøðurnir" meant something professional like the "Hanse" (but slighlty smaller). ;o)

Am I right that "trøðin" means something like "path" "place"?

Best wishes from Leipzig/Germany --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 11:02 (UTC)

Not path, but a piece of land. If you understand some Faroese, you can read about it here: Trøð. It is a piece of land from the "Kongsjørð" (there are two kinds of land in the Faroes, kongsjørð and óðalsjørð). You can not own kongsjørð. Anyway, these "trøð" (traðir in plural) were sold to people, so they could build a house there and have sheep, hen, cows etc. It is mainly around larger villages/towns, that you can find these traðir. I don't know the English word for this, but it is a piece of land near villages. I think they got it as some kinf of loan to start with, and after a while, they could buy it, but I am not sure how and for how much money. Some history books must write about it, I am sure. Now they are mainly used for people who wish to hava a few sheep as a hobby. "Trøðin" has an ending "in", it is the same as "the" in English, "der, die, das" in German. In Faroese we have a definet ending in stead, just like Danish and other Nordic languages. Regards EileenSanda (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 12:00 (UTC)

I have a longer answer for you. Is there some way I could e-mail it to you, or should I just copy it in here?

Yes, feel free to use the e-mail function to contact me – I am courious to get to know the Brothers' background! :o) --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 13:24 (UTC)

Great, thank you very much! --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 14:12 (UTC)

Thanks and

Monmouthpedia thanks you for your many contributions Eileen. Please keep an eye on the points page as we will be announcing how you can watch the web stream. We have had to postpone the launch because we need the new Monmouthpedia Wifi to be in place to show off your work to people in Monmouth. If you can add your Skype name to the points page then that would enable us to contact you. We are intending to have a second phase of this competition but we wanted to make sure we kept to the deadline we had published.

Is would be great to complete these articles. Thank you. Hypuxylun 27. apr 2012, kl. 00:37 (UTC)

Hello Eileen, can you help me? Please, create page about Polandball (here in English or Icelandic). It is a popular internet meme/comics.

Thank you and best regards, --Tamara Ustinova (talk) 28. aug 2012 kl. 08:16 (UTC)

Hello, I have created a page about Polandball, I translated the word into Faroese Póllandbóltur, but I also created a redirect page, which redirects Polandball to Póllandbóltur. Best regards EileenSanda (talk) 28. aug 2012 kl. 10:10 (UTC)

Faroese speaker needs on Commons

Hi, I need a Faroese speaker to help with sorting out the copyright status of File:Coat-of-arms of the Faroe Islands.png, File:Mítt alfagra land.jpg, File:Mítt alfagra land (2).jpg, and couldn't find one on Commons. I don't even know if Faroes has its own copyright law or uses Danish copyright law - we have no documentation on this on Commons. If you can help, or suggest someone who can, I'd be grateful. I obviously don't come here often(!), so please reply on my Commons user talk page. Thanks. Rd232 (talk) 3. des 2012 kl. 14:04 (UTC)

Hi, I have answered you on your talk page on the English Wikipedia. Kind regards EileenSanda (talk) 3. des 2012 kl. 14:51 (UTC)

Om Jólaevangeliið

Hej Eileen!

Jag känner till Tostarpadius från svenska Wikipedia, och han är en seriös användare. Jag antar att han försökte dela upp interwiki-länkarna mellan artiklar om just Julevangeliet i Lukas och mellan artiklar som mer generellt handlar om Jesu födesel. Se till dömes artiklarna på danska om da:Juleevangeliet och da:Jesu fødsel. Han har gjort liknande rättningar på andra Wikipedior. /Diupwijk 12. des 2012 kl. 17:27 (UTC)

Hej, ups, ja så har jeg taget fejl, jeg kom også i tvivl efter at jeg havde spærret ham for et tidsrum af en uge. Jeg vil ændre det tilbage igen, hvis jeg kan. Tak for at du siger det! Venlig hilsen EileenSanda (talk) 12. des 2012 kl. 17:58 (UTC)

Hei Eileen, jeg har opphevet blokkeringen av Tostarpadius for deg. Niceley 12. des 2012 kl. 18:16 (UTC)

Tusind tak for det Nicolai :) EileenSanda (talk) 12. des 2012 kl. 20:23 (UTC)

Here's looking at you kid

Here's looking at you kid

Hi Eileen, in relation to the above Polandball-aviation thing, I am waiting on permission from a few photographers to be able to upload more Faroe-related aviation photos, but in the meantime, I thought I would upload Flickr sets/streams with a Faroe's theme. Would this be suitable for you, in case the aviation photos don't eventuate? If there are any Faroe topical photos we need on Commons, let me know, and if we can find them on Flickr, I can upload entire streams if required. Russavia (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 18:33 (UTC)

LOL, I just did a search for suitable photos on Flickr, and the first two results - one which I am already uploading -- and this stream (yours!?) If you ever want to make the entire stream available under CC-BY-SA, let me know, and I can upload the entire stream to Commons ;) Russavia (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 18:38 (UTC)

That is my photostream on Flickr, yes :) Don't worry about the photos which you promised to upload here, I actually thought that they were your own photos. Anyway, I don't write on Wikipedia in order to get something in stead, I write on Wikipedia because I like it. No, I don't think that I want my entire photostream on Flickr uploaded to commons, I have already uploaded quite many photos to commons :) Best regards EileenSanda (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 21:23 (UTC)
