Image:Musee croixrouge.JPG

Hi, did you take this photograph yourself? I'm asking so I can confirm the copyright status — Zeimusu | Talk 02:02, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I did! Julius.kusuma

Hi from Germany, would you be willing to specifically release your picture under the GNU FDL or as Public Domain? In that way, it could be included with the German edition of the Wikipedia. The rules for licensing of pictures are more strict there. For example, there is no "fair use" clause. All pictures which don't have a definitive source and a free license are not allowed (the preferred license is the GNU FDL). I would be happy about a positive decision. You can also contact me via my personal discussion page at the German Wikipedia at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benutzer_Diskussion:UW. Sincerely Yours, Uwe from the German Wikipedia

Sure, I'm happy to contribute under the stricter license. Enjoy! Julius.kusuma 17:21, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Hi Julius, thank you very much for your positive decision. I think it would be best to edit the Image page of the picture at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Musee_croixrouge.JPG and add a comment which clearly states that you, as the original creator of the picture, release it under the GNU FDL. In addition to that, it would be good to add your real name or Wikipedia username and the date when you took the picture. Right now, there is a message on the image page which says that there is no information available about the source or the license of the picture. For the US edition of the Wikipedia there is the "fair use" rule which keeps the picture from being deleted under such situation. But as there is no "fair use" clause in Germany, pictures which do not have unambiguous information about their source and license are promptly deleted in a timely manner. As I would be happy to include the picture with "my" German article about the International Red Cross and Red Crescent movement, I kindly ask you to add these information to the image page in the English Wikipedia, which would then serve as a reference. Sincerely Yours, Uwe from the German Wikipedia

PS: I left a comment on the discussion page of the English Wikipedia article about the International Committee of the Red Cross, asking for a small but important correction. Could you kindly check whether you could make the necessary changes? I abstain from doing it myself as English is not my native language.

PPS: Do you have other Red-Cross-related pictures available, for example the headquarter of the ICRC from a different angle, or a picture of the headquarter of the International Federation, or any other interesting pictures about the Red Cross/ Red Crescent?

Uwe, I've added the creator info as you requested. I probably do have a few more photos of the museum itself or the contents therein in my collection, but it will take me a few days to find them. Will contact you when I find them. Enjoy. Julius.kusuma 20:20, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for releasing the picture under the GNU FDL. I've included it with my German article about the International Red Cross and Red Crescent movement (a single article about both the ICRC and the Int. Federation). Though I use it as an illustration of the ICRC headquarter :). Take care & good by(t)e, Uwe from the German Wikipedia

Soeharto Additions

Thanks for putting the additions on the Soeharto entry, on electoral "reforms." A quick question on the other addition you made though - can you say which scholars have documented the "red/white"/"green" split in the Indonesian military?--Daniel 23:47, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)

There are many references in Indonesian, but I can't find any in English. I hesitated citing documents not in English since it's not very useful for an English-language dictionary. Here are a few examples:

A google search netted a review of the following book: Stefan Eklof, Indonesian Politics in Crisis: The Long Fall of Suharto,1996–98. Copenhagen: Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, 1999. However, I have not personally read it, so I don't know whether it's appropriate to put up a citation to a source which I have not even read myself. If you have suggestions, I'm all ears. I actually put up the information in hopes that somebody else would furnish the references (in English) for it. Julius.kusuma

Thanks. I was really wondering more for personal curiosity, though I'll check those out in the library.--Daniel 03:10, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)

Improving Indonesia-related articles

After thinking about it for a while, I've posted an appeal for a discussion on how best to improve Indonesia-related subs in Talk:Suharto. I'd like to hear what you'd have to say as a person who has some interest in this. If you could read it, and give me any feedback (and any assistance going forward) I would greatly appreciate it. --Daniel June 28, 2005 07:13 (UTC)

Regional notice board created!

I've created a regional notice board for Indonesia-related topics. It is available at Wikipedia:Indonesia-related_topics_notice_board.

Hope you can help.

Thanks

For the thanks. Great job on starting (and expanding) all those cyclist articles (a lot!).--Phlebas 00:03, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

Armstrong affair

Hello, can you give the link to the l'Equipe article mentioning Olano, Moreau, and Armstrong in the latest doping affair, please? I looked around http://www.lequipe.fr/Cyclisme/index.html just now, but can't find it. Thanks. Julius.kusuma 18:17, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's on the paper edition also available on subscription thru the Web

In few minutes, I'll give you the crucial sentences. 82.224.88.52 19:00, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Here it is (titled Pourquoi se focaliser sur le seul Armstrong). 82.224.88.52 19:19, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Il est vrai que six échantillons restent anonymes sachant que les quatre coureurs contrôlés lors du prologue - dont fait partie Lance Armstrong - sont tous quatre positifs à l'EPO. Serait-il alors respectable de donner l'identité des quatre premiers et de leur accoler une positivité à l'EPO .../... l'on pourrait demander à l'UCI notamment de fournir l'ensemble de ces noms.

Thanks for the information. I was actually hoping to read the reference to Moreau and Olano, because that's the part that hasn't been mentioned in English news sources. Merci bien! Julius.kusuma 21:03, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sources for Laurent Fignon

Hello, sometime ago you added a fair bit of content to Laurent Fignon. As you may know we are currently trying to improve Wikipedia's accuracy and reliability by making sure articles cite the sources used to created them. Do you remember what websites, books, or other places you learnt the information that you added to Laurent Fignon? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 15:14, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SimonP, most of the content are from various cycling magazines. I'll have to dig through them again at some point. The Cyfac reference is from the Cyfac website, which I added to the Reference section. Julius.kusuma 19:19, 15 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Romo Zoet

Thank you for starting this. matur nuwun. I almost met him, but when on sosrowijayan, there are issues. Also I am very fond of Muntilan. Your efforts are much appreciated, he deserves a good article. vcxlor 15:50, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Eddy Merckx

I saw your call for a cleanup of that article and had (an inexperienced) go at it. Just check it out! 81.188.79.35 23:42, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Halo

Halo! Anda orang Indonesia? Kok tidak berkontribusi di wikipedia bahasa Indonesia? Salam - borgx ^(talk) 08:22, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Right now I'm more interested in contributing to the road bicycle racing pages, and there are many more collaborators in the English version than there are in the Indonesian version! Julius.kusuma 13:14, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Indonesian pictures

Well I have been off from internet for more than 2 months, but I am back again! Yes I shall upload these images about Romo Zoet and Indonesian Chinese. But actually you can do it yourself. Why didn't you do that. Well anyway Happy New Year! Meursault2004 16:43, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Because going through those articles may compel you to add more things that I have missed, or improved on what I had written ;-). Thanks and happy new year to you, too! Julius.kusuma 20:47, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Always good to talk to a fellow cyclist!

I'm glad you enjoyed the quotes section from my user page (on bicycles). I'll see what I can do about adding it to wikiquotes. ;) --72.57.8.215 01:19, 7 January 2006 (UTC) --CyclePat [[Image:Ladies safety bicycles1889.gif|25px|<nowiki></nowiki>]] 01:20, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit to bicycle

Did you intend to revert all the edits User:LDHan made, or just the anon edit to the image caption? You may want to leave a note on the talk page explaining why if you intend to leave all of LDHan's edits reverted. (diff) -SCEhard T 21:44, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for bringing this up. I have have left a note on the talk page. I suspect the reverts were done in error. LDHan 23:43, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

ProTour races interlinking

Hello! Sorry, but I don't understand exactly what you mean about linking my contributions to the primary pages, could you explain please? Thanks ;) --Danilot 10:53, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant to say is that when one looks at, say, Liège-Bastogne-Liège, it is hard to see or know that some of the editions have a good narration, such as Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2005. I'm thinking of how to make it more presentable. It is your good work after all :-). Julius.kusuma 16:29, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Java

Maybe of interst: there's a revote on pointing Java at the island, at Talk:Java. -- Danny Yee 03:33, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, there seems to be some things that have the same pattern as gamelan notation :) somewhat circular? Sigh. SatuSuro 02:55, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Indonesia

Hey there, I'm a fellow Indonesian. I was thinking probably we could make a well-establish WikiProject Indonesia, apart from the regional notice board. It saddens me that even the Indonesia article is not a featured article. What do you think about that? Oh, have you checked the new Portal:Indonesia? Looking forward to your reply. Take care and cheers -- Imoeng 09:15, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A new collaboration page for Indonesia-related articles has been created. Please take a look at it if you have time. Cheers -- Imoeng 11:36, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sparse approximation

Hello. I've added Sparse approximation to the list of NP-complete problems. Since only that and the list of mathematics articles link to it, I've added an "orphan" tag. If you know of other articles that should link to it, could you edit those article to add the links? Michael Hardy (talk) 15:15, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion on Chinese Indonesian

Hello Julius.kusuma, I noticed that you have been one of the long-time contributors to the article Chinese Indonesian. I've taken up the task of rewriting the article from scratch and would appreciate any input you have on structure, content, images, sources, etc. Keep in mind that the current draft is still in its early stages, and much work is needed to reconstruct the text while eliminating original research and speculative information. I am doing my best to keep as much information as possible and using the sources already listed while seeking others. Feel free to put it on your watchlist if you are interested in monitoring its progress. Thanks again your previous contributions. Arsonal (talk) 02:31, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would rather you review my rewrites. Not that I'm taking ownership, but I think it might get messy if we try to do too many things too fast. Keep it on your watchlist and let me know if I'm missing something. I will notify you and others again when I think it's ready for review. Arsonal (talk) 01:56, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hey again. Two sections of my draft seem to be complete now: "Ancestral origins" and "Demographics". They should not change much from here on. Feel free to read through them and let me know what you think. Arsonal (talk) 17:08, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese Indonesian article is ready

Chinese Indonesians is live and ready for scrutiny by the public. I believe everything that you mentioned to me was eventually included during the writing process. From here on, use the article talk page if you have comments. Thanks! —Arsonal (talk + contribs)— 09:18, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Cote de saint nicolas.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Cote de saint nicolas.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 20:00, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free rationale for File:Wesemann rvv2004.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Wesemann rvv2004.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 14:58, 15 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Research Laboratory of Electronics at MIT

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Research Laboratory of Electronics at MIT, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari

I invite you to please join the discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari.

Hello, we are seeking help with the Sarah Azhari article, created in 2013 & recently the subject of a deletion proposal. At issue was whether or not the Indonesian language sources establish notability. I am inviting you to the discussion at Talk:Sarah Azhari#Help with Indonesian language sources because you are in the Category:User id-N & have a minimum of 1,000 edits across all Wikimedia projects.

I realize that some of you are very busy while others may no longer be editing. Nevertheless, I thought it wise to consult with you.
