From Conservapedia

Thanks for your picture uploading. It really improves this site, especially because many of us have not been able to get the feature to work.

If you have time, I have a "picture request" for the John Brown article. Thanks. MountainDew 03:11, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

Also if you can upload a pic of the Hon. Rose Bird. Geo. 03:12, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

Reagan Pic

THANK YOU!! --~ TerryK ^MyTalk 03:56, 27 March 2007 (EDT)

And your b-decay picture, too. You are posting a lot of interesting stuff. --Ed Poor 11:16, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

Perhaps you could edit the help file on uploading and placing pictures? Both entries say exactly the same thing, and are pretty useless... Thanks again, I saw several more (and much needed) pictures placed by you today. :-) --~ TerryK ^MyTalk 19:38, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

Please provide this site with an entry for spinach. Thank you for your attention in this matter. --Huey gunna getcha 11:48, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

Great pic! thanks! GodlessLiberal 18:17, 29 March 2007 (EDT)

Atheism

I noticed you removed Steven Hawking from the list of confirmed Athiests. [1] I believe you are correct. After reading the following article by Dr. Henry F. "Fritz" Schaefer, III Stephen Hawking, the Big Bang, and God, I don't believe Hawking was an athiest. Crocoite^talk 12:09, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

More about uploading

Hi, Jaques. You seem to have mastered the trick of Conservapedia:uploading images. Please tell us how to do it! Many of us are frustrated and floundering. --Ed Poor 13:40, 2 April 2007 (EDT)

Obama Photo.....

Really! Is there some reason you thought that cartoon appropriate? --~ TerryK ^MyTalk 20:45, 2 April 2007 (EDT)

Ellipse

Thanks for this illustration, it's exactly what I was talking about! [2]

Someday when we all meet for our first national conference, I want to take you out to the best restaurant it town. Your contributions are really making this project successful. :-) --Ed Poor 09:59, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

Hey

Drop me an email some time. I like how you helped me out with Herpes.--PalMD^talk 14:29, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

Yikes! Bet there's an interesting story there! Czolgolz 00:01, 14 April 2007 (EDT)

Movie pic

Thanks for your image upload and link to my Motion picture article. One word: that's no "minor" edit. But I still accept it as entirely friendly.--TerryH^Talk 22:36, 6 April 2007 (EDT)

Thumb

I've found when using the thumb(nail) option for pics it automatically provides a frame for a caption. To me it then looks bare w/o one so on the David Hume photo I added one. I'd've put in the artist's name as well but I don't rightly know who painted it. Cracker_talk

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to you, Jaques!

The eleven disciples went to the hill in Galilee where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him, Jesus drew near and said to them, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to obey everything I have commanded you. And I will be with you always, to the end of the age." Matthew 28
Then Peter began to speak: “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts men from every nation who fear him and do what is right. You know the message God sent to the people of Israel, telling the good news of peace through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all. You know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee after the baptism that John preached— how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. “We are witnesses of everything he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed him by hanging him on a tree, but God raised him from the dead on the third day and caused him to be seen. He was not seen by all the people, but by witnesses whom God had already chosen—by us who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one whom God appointed as judge of the living and the dead. All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” —Acts 10:34-43 NIV

Pic Uploading

Is there a trick to it? I've tried changing the name of the file, saving it as a different file type and I keep getting an "upload error" type message. Jrssr5 13:41, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

RMS Titanic pic

The pic of the Titanic's bow may be copyrighted. You have to provide a summary as to where it came from, the date, and a fair-use reason that the pic is displayed; otherwise it has to be removed. Karajou 17:12, 10 April 2007 (EDT)

Prostitution

More of a social vice than an element of the economy, wouldn't you say? --Ed Poor 18:34, 11 April 2007 (EDT)

Not in France and Nevada.--Elamdri 17:54, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

We need to talk

Many of the articles you just wrote have a vast similarity to there Wikipedia counterparts, and use the exact same pictures. This isn't allowed on the site. You have to write the articles from the ground up.--Elamdri 17:57, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

which one?Jaques 17:59, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

Well, Whale and Plankton for starters. Both use the same pictures as the Wikipedia article, and you didn't even bother to change the caption for the Plankton image. I'm going to get dinner, so I might now be back for a little while. I'm not blocking you, but we need to look over your edits, I want to make sure you don't get banned for something we can fix.--Elamdri 18:00, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

those pictures are public domains. And I did't write Whale and Plankton articles. Jaques 18:03, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

It still looks very bad for us to use the same images. Please try to find suitable substitutes. Thanks! CPWebmaster 18:07, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

What's the idea behind changing geek to read "Such individuals are often only interested in technology and information"[3]? --Hacker^{(Write some code)} 21:44, 12 April 2007 (EDT)

Category Technology vs. Technologies

Hi Jacques, you seem like a "friend of categories", I noticed you added them to a few articles I created. I am writing here to suggest that the "Technologies" category would phrase better if it was called "Technology". How do you feel about that? I'd encourage you, if you are so inclined, to move the 16 or so articles in the former to the latter. Oh, and then add that category to Engineering as well ;) Take care and keep up the good work, Human 00:36, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

Global Warming

What's your problem with the BBC report? Jacobin 18:18, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Ask the generals who wrote the report how global warming affects water. I don't knbow or care right now, what matters for the page is that the report was issued, whether you agree with it or not! Jacobin 18:25, 15 April 2007 (EDT)

Let's not use category tags to make points. We need to tell our readers why you ID or creation science are pseudoscience and eugenics is not.

I didn't add ID and creation science.

Need sig help, Jaques? :p --~ TK ^MyTalk 18:09, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

Internet & Usenet laws

Can you merge those 3 article together? Skanky, Godwin, baby zebra? --Ed Poor 20:35, 16 April 2007 (EDT)

Are you kidding?

A Hot spring is a natural hot tub? Seriously, that's the whole entry and that picture? Please try to flesh these out a bit. Thank you. Flippin 15:14, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

Really? Congress "hangs out" in the capital? C'mon dude. Flippin 16:35, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

sorry for my ceaseless arguing about the NRA, at the time i did not see your reference in the article.

Citation?

Hi Jaques, I was wondering if you could get a citation for this list you added. And have you thought about requesting adminship lately? You're on a lot, and would probably be a good candidate. Thanks! --Hojimachong^talk 20:22, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

it's at bottom.Jaques 20:22, 17 April 2007 (EDT)

Hitler

Compare me to Hitler again and I'll complain to a sysop and ask for you to be banned. Play nice. Jacobin 23:07, 18 April 2007 (EDT)

Stephane Dion

You wrote this: "Stéphane Dion has been criticized for unable to speak fluent english."

I shall now criticize you for being unable to WRITE in fluent English. Jacobin 00:29, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

Eugenics?

Why do you keep removing this from the list of pseudosciences? If you navigate to its page, you'll see that eugenics is clearly labeled a "pseudoscience." Flippin 16:22, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

eugenics is no a pseudoscience, even Wikipedia agrees.Jaques 16:58, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

If Wikipedia thinks that eugenics is "no a pseudoscience," as you so eloquently put it, why does the word "pseudoscience" appear in the listings at the bottom of their page?

Jacobin 17:15, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

If it is I sure as heck cannot see it.Jaques 18:00, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

Wait - look - there's more!!! "Eugenicists advocate specific policies that (if successful) would lead to a perceived improvement of the human gene pool. Since defining what improvements are desired or beneficial is perceived by many as a cultural choice rather than a matter that can be determined objectively (e.g., by empirical, scientific inquiry), eugenics has often been deemed a pseudoscience. " - from Wikipedia, "Eugenics."

But really, who cares what Wikipedia says - tell us how eugenics is not a pseudoscience. Jacobin 17:18, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

well, there is a difference between saying "eugenics is deemed by some people as psuedoscience" and declare "eugenics is pseudoscience".Jaques 18:00, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

So, tell me how it isn't one, then. Jacobin 18:25, 20 April 2007 (EDT)

global warming

That is really sad we can't edit global warming article...--Kádár Tamás 18:11, 25 April 2007 (EDT)

Why the massive deletion?

Why your massive, unexplained deletion in Koala. Here we let the reader decide, and we do not censor or withhold information for ideological reasons from the reader. Thanks.--Aschlafly 11:11, 5 May 2007 (EDT)

Please ignore my comment above. I see that you were right to remove that section. Thanks for your edits.--Aschlafly 12:20, 5 May 2007 (EDT)

Image:Artw 17.jpg

The image Image:Artw_17.jpg had been deleted last night by a sysop after a vandal replaced it with something else. The image page has been restored, but it appears that the image itself has to be re-uploaded. The history told me you're the original uploader, so it's likely that you still have the original file. --JLindon 08:37, 9 May 2007 (EDT)

Trapezium

Hi Jaques.

I think you have edited some math stuff before, and I think you might be US as opposed to Aussie or Brit. If so could you adjudicate on the Trapezium Article. I believe that in the US a trapezium is any quadrilateral with no parallel sides, but a trapezium has got one pair of parallel sides, wheres in the UK, a trapezium has got one pair of parallel sides (i.e. US trapezoid)

any ideas?--SeanTheSheep 14:52, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Your Che Guevara edits

I am concerned about the following two edits:

Conservapedia is not a video game, and photos of dead or injured people, even Che Guevara, are not family friendly. Furthermore, I am unclear if the photo is in the public domain (if it is, please add a note to the photo). HeartOfGold 18:36, 14 May 2007 (EDT)

Homophobia-phobia

I moved the section to the Talk page of the article, because it seems to be a personal essay, and because I don't think it's a word in any significant use. Continue discussion there. Dpbsmith 09:05, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

Image of Periodic table of elements

It's been a long time since I had chemistry, but I am quite sure I have never seen one of [[Image:Aqw.jpg|these]] before. Is it explained anywhere? HeartOfGold 15:21, 18 May 2007 (EDT)

Edit summaries

Hello. I noticed that you made about 18 edits to an article here, but the history indicates that you did not make use of the edit summary box. I do this from time to time too, but it does make reviewing an article's history easier if the contributor summarizes the edit. Thanks for contributing. HeartOfGold _talk 01:25, 21 May 2007 (EDT)

Hi there I was just in the middle of editing the article on Max Born when you made an edit. I don't think I reverted anything you added. Hannibal ad portas 00:29, 23 May 2007 (EDT)

Some nice work there, reverting the work of (sub)Human, the extreme liberal vandal! --Sysop-TK _/MyTalk 22:56, 6 June 2007 (EDT)

Another unjustified edit

Jaques, your deletion of "He did not discover the Lorentz transformation, or the Lorentz invariance of Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism." from Einstein was unjustified.--Aschlafly 12:32, 10 June 2007 (EDT)

Einstein did not discover the Lorentz transformation is pretty obvious isn't it? If einstein had discovered it, it would have been called Einstein transformation. Jaques 01:00, 11 June 2007 (EDT)

Thanks for bringing up tor. I had forgotten about it. I will email someone and see if access can be restricted. Geo.Complain! 23:57, 27 June 2007 (EDT)

Jackie Robinson photo

Jacques, your Jackie Robinson image was *not* public domain and instead it is being offered for sale over the internet. I hope you haven't uploaded other images in breach of copyright. I'm deleting it now. Please recheck your uploaded images. Godspeed.--Aschlafly 12:06, 17 July 2007 (EDT)

Another bad edit

Jaques, you replaced The Passion of Christ with The Godfather in Essay:Greatest Conservative Movies. I hope that was humor.--Aschlafly 01:08, 22 July 2007 (EDT)
