A good place to start ...
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 15:21, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, for the mistake. I ment killoton of uranium (in some countries a ',' is used as decimal point, so that confused me). But still, the conversion is incorrect. 1 ton is 1000 kilo and 1 kilo is more than 2 pounds. So you should have more pounds than kilos IMHO Lkruijsw (talk) 21:19, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Sorry, again. I see now that it is not a metric ton. Weird, converting a non-metric value to another non-metric value Lkruijsw (talk) 21:26, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Me again, numbers are not correct. A non-metric ton is almost equal to a metric ton. So, someone made the conversion wrong. Lkruijsw (talk) 21:53, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
I checked the report.
486,500 tonnes grading 17.38%!!!!
280,000 tonnes grading 26.33%!!!!
So, except for the factor 1000 (sorry, for that), my number was correct.
22:54, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Do, you agree in changing:
766,500 tonnes U3O8 at an average grade of 20.66%
into
766,500 tonnes grading 20.66% U3O8 at average
? (same wording as in the report)
Because, 766,500 tonnes U3O8 is incorrect, you have 766,500 uranium ore, not U3O8. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lkruijsw (talk • contribs) 23:06, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
Motto of the day
Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.
When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.
If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 02:52, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
Categories on user subpage
I've placed colons in the category links on User:Turgan/Sandbox2 so the page doesn't show up on the category pages. When you are ready to go live (move to mainspace), simply remove the colons. Vsmith (talk) 22:43, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
- That is a good tip to remember. Thank you. Turgan Talk 17:48, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
Request For Rollback
Hiya. I've approved your request. Please see WP:RBK or feel free to ask me for help. Please remember the tool is only to remove obvious vandalism. Many thanks. Pedro : Chat 09:41, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Spanish American Mine
An article that you have been involved in editing, Spanish American Mine, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Spanish American Mine. Thank you. Johnfos (talk) 21:01, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
- I have responded there. Turgan Talk 00:37, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
I noticed you placed a message tag on the top of the article I just created. Why did you do this?--I Really Love You, And I Mean You (talk) 15:15, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there, I reviewed your artical as part of the New Page patrol program. I placed the notability tag on your article when I reviewed it to point out an area that needed to be addressed to aviod deletion of your article. This is another way of helping editors improve thier additions. I see this has been addressed, so the tag can be removed. The AfD tag someone else added, however, can not be removed yet. Please feel free to comment on that discussion as well. Turgan Talk 10:50, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Thanks a lot Turgan
The name of Northern Cyprus was legally changed to North Cyprus and all relevant changes are gradually performed about this (Like http://www.northcyprus.com , http://www.northcyprus.org etc. ) Unfortunately, there is no BOT to make all the necessary changes in Wikipedia at once. So, I change the necessary shifting one by one. Then, I redirect all "Northern"s to "North"s. Thx a lot for your sensitivity. Cheapfriends (talk) 14:03, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- You are very right: Your suggestion is very nice and practical. Unfortunately, admins of Wikipedia are so slow that they lag behind the legal changes. There are two ways as you mentioned:
- 1: MOVE of the old page to the new name, and delete the old one.
- 2: RECREATE the old page and then REDIRECT the old page to NEW page or delete the old one completely.
- I mentioned this issue in [[1]]. The users who are aware of the change supported the 2nd way since the number of articles on NC is not so high and changes can be done very fast.
- If the page is moved, the old page automatically redirects to the new name. Once your account has been active for a few days, you can do the move yourself. An admin is not required for a page move. Just suggesting ways that might be a bit easier on you, and will maintain the integrity of the article. Turgan Talk 14:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- Thx a lot for your interest to the issue. Cheapfriends (talk) 14:13, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- Hehe, I was patrolling new pages, and they kind of stood out. Turgan Talk 14:20, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
- Nice word: "stand out". I look at its meaning in [[2]]. If you are in trouble about a Turkish phrase, don't hesitate to call me :) Cheapfriends (talk) 14:33, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I started a discussion about changing Category:Sub-surface mining to Category:Underground mining, I wanted to see what the thoughts of other participents of WikiProject Mining were.--kelapstick (talk) 17:48, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Page Blanking
This is my own talk page and I can blank it if I choose. Please do not revert another user's talk page as you do not have the jurisdiction to do so.79.66.16.15 (talk) 04:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
- As long as you actually read the warnings... I have seen too many warnings removed by anonymous editors for the wrong reason and may have jumped the gun. I will do what I have to while respecting the fact that it is your page. I apologize for the inconvenience. Turgan Talk 05:15, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
