Hey, there, Hereford. Quick favor to ask of you - if you ever feel like changing your signature, please don't... as similar as our names are, it's likely we might get a bit confused if our signatures look too similar. ;-) Thanks (although feel free to change it if you like, of course). Happy editing! Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 16:32, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

SUL

According to [1] , those names are taken on those languages. You could try usurping them. The es. one has no edits, the nl. has two, hopefully non-GFDL significant. –xeno (talk) 16:49, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Try going to WP:USURP and following the interwiki language links. You'll need to create a dummy account over there and file a usurp request. –xeno (talk) 17:29, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

• nl:Wikipedia:Verzoek_voor_hernoeming_van_account, es:Wikipedia:Cambiar_el_nombre_de_usuario. Use simple english or a machine translator. Or just say "SUL usurp" or something, that should be enough for a reason. –xeno (talk) 17:33, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Your user page at foreign wikipedias

Hi. I just saw your user page at no.wikipedia. The translations of the sentence "Hello I am Hereford Please contact me at English Wikipedia in your native language but please state what your native Language in english." seem to be made by a computer. If you are interested, here are some improved translations of some of them: Danish: "Hej, jeg er Hereford. Venligst kontakt mig på Engelsk Wikipedia på dit modersmål, men det bedes oplyses, hvad dit modersmål er, på engelsk." Norwegian: "Hei, jeg er Hereford. Du kan kontakte meg på Engelsk Wikipedia på ditt morsmål, men vennligst opplys på engelsk, hva ditt morsmål er." Greek: "Γεια σας, είμαι ο Hereford. Παρακαλώ επικοινωνήστε μαζί μου στην Αγγλική Wikipedia στη μητρική σας γλώσσα, αλλά παρακαλώ να αναφέρετε στα αγγλικά ποια γλώσσα είναι." Many of the mistranslations seems to come from the fact, that the english sentence lacks the verb "is" (unless I misunderstood the meening). Out of curiosity, which program have you used for the translations? After all, they seem quite good compared to other computertranslations. Wikijens (talk) 17:37, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

lol, i screwed up english. HereFord 18:13, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

ko:사용자:Hereford

Your Korean translation on your Korean Wikipedia user page was very awkward; I guess you used a translator such as Babel Fish of Google Translate. I'm here to tell you that I corrected your translation.

This was your translation:

안녕하세요 저는 hereford 문의하시기 바랍니다 [[:en: User Talk:  : Hereford| 영어 위키백과]]의 모국어 그러나 귀하의 기본 언어와 영어로 무엇을 말씀해주세요.

I changed that into this:

안녕하세요, 저는 Hereford입니다. [[:en:User talk:Hereford|영어 위키백과]]에서 당신의 모국어로 저에게 토론하실 수 있습니다. 그러나 당신의 모국어를 영어로 말씀해 주세요.

suggestion

Consider something much simpler, in English. Anyone who is going to collaborate with you is going to need to speak at least a minimum of English. See my interwiki userpages at say nl:User:Xenocidic. Feel free to copy for your own purposes. –xeno (talk) 17:43, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Since you made all those INterwiki's today, you might be interested in my new interwiki matrix template: {{iw-matrix}}. –xeno (talk) 06:02, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Sims3-coverart.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Sims3-coverart.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:37, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Hereford at nlwiki

Hi, your account has been renamed. --Erwin85 (talk) 08:39, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

ACC/username

I honestly have no idea. You'll have to ask another list admin, or SQL. —Giggy 00:03, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

There's probably no pressing need to change your username at ACC. Just update your sig if you're using the auto-welcome feature. –xeno (talk) 00:07, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
