User talk:Colin Marquardt
Hello there, welcome to the 'pedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you need pointers on how we title pages visit Wikipedia:Naming conventions or how to format them visit our manual of style. If you have any other questions about the project then check out Wikipedia:Help or add a question to the Village pump. Cheers! --maveric149
Hi Colin, nice pics on user page. I assume Death (band) and its members are American. Could you add that if it's correct - as you know, this is an international project, and we're not all au fait with this music. jimfbleak
- Yup, correct, I'll add that info. Thanks for pointing it out. Colin Marquardt
Heya. nice work on the encoding page. i sorta understand it a little better now ;-). RE your mt. shasta image, you shouldnt be afraid at all of providing a nice high resolution version as well. I always do see some of my images: http://www.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=Hfastedge user_talk:hfastedge
I hope Binary prefixes is a bit more clearer. You can go check if I haven't screwed it up any further :) Sorry about the confusion... Dysprosia 11:21, 5 Sep 2003 (UTC)

Article Licensing[edit]
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
Improving Wikipedia bibliographies[edit]
In case you're still interested, I responded to your Talk:Bibliography question. Hopefully Wikipedia will have a more standardized bibliographical format soon! --J. J. 20:20, 2005 August 24 (UTC)
You made this ?[edit]
http://opentiles.com/cmarqu/ ?? Wikigraphists (mapmakers) are fighting daily to create one-by-one such topographic maps. See several examples on fr:Wikipédia:Atelier_graphique/Cartes. They would LOVE this tools. And even more if we may cuztomize it to follow Wikipedia:WikiProject_Maps/Conventions's styles. Yug (talk) 16:33, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
Inkscape wiki[edit]
Hallo Colin,
Ich konnte keinen Weg finden, ein Benutzerkonto beim Inkscape wiki anzulegen. Ich sehe aber, dass Du den Carts and graphs Abschnitt des Tools Artikel bearbeitet hast. Das RSVG device von R wäre dort auch relevant, falls Du die Zeit findest, es hinzufügen.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen, --Slashme (talk) 09:06, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
