The [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions ParserFunctions] extension looks particularly useful (e.g., use it to calculate the next nundinum). One caveat is that there seems to be a conflict between ParserFunctions and [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cite/Cite.php Cite.php]. Since Cite.php is not the only way to do citations, and since ParserFunctions adds useful things, I vote for ParserFunctions and wait on Cite.php. [[User:M.

:Pages in German would go in the "DE: namespace". For example, the German version of the page "Ager Publicus (Nova Roma)" would be "DE:Ager Publicus (Nova Roma)" If the title is not in Latin, for example, "FAQ", you would create the page (in the DE: namespace) with whatever the German title would be and '''also''' create "DE:FAQ", which would be a redirect page that points to the actual German page.

This is an area where you leave requests for the Editorial and IT Staff of our Wiki website. We'll watch this space regularly, and remove the requests once they are responded to. You can post a question here only if you have an editorial account on this Wiki system website. If you don't have one, you can request the site administrators to create one for you, or you can ask your questions directly in email, or in our Main List.

Please make your requests in the following format:

== My Title ==

[[Example]] - place the article name in doubled square brackets.

[[User:Example]] - if the request is for some change to your account, link to yourself as [[User:Your User Name]].

Descriptive text: follow it with some text explaining what you want us to do.

Signature: end your request with four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (this will be replaced with your signature, that is, with your username and a date stamp).

Place new requests under this line. Don't remove anyone else's - just put yours after theirs.


Page Unlock

It would be exceptionally helpful to have this page unlocked, so that candidates may add themselves and their declaration pages, given that the calls for candidates have been announced. -- Q·CAEC·MET·POST 02:05, 25 October 2009 (CEST)

Possible Plagiarism

Is it not possible that they copied us? --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 18:47, 28 January 2013 (CET)
I'd like to believe so, but looking at the page, they note that their page was created (at latest) in 2003. If nothing else, the creator of the page on our site should give source citation (aside from the references listed at the bottom of the page), which would more easily allow review of the situation. Q Caecilius Metellus Postumianus 01:40, 29 January 2013 (CET)
  • Bureaucracy: This page appears to be a copyright violation of the publication from The Cato Institute. Appia Gratia Avita 11:38, 27 January 2013 (CET)
Do they say that others can not use their material? --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 18:47, 28 January 2013 (CET)
The item itself is available in PDF; the bottom of the first page contains a copyright notice. As the editing page of any page in our wiki notes: "Do not submit copyrighted work without permission!" The question for me, then, is whether or not the page creator obtained that permission, and if so, whether it can be placed somewhere (in the page itself, or on its Talk: page) for appropriate documentation, should it be necessary in the future.
