Selam CS, You're quite right, I requested that you be sysopped here as soon as I saw that you had begun to write new pages, and it would seem it's already been granted. To translate the interface, you can go to Special:Allmessages.

I am working on a couple of aricles but I think it woul be great if we all know the way things are coordinated? How can I also get registerd? Ermias


Hi, I have been working on some of the pages for some time now. But I see that there are some things that we should try to standardize in the translations before we go very far. Especially those terms and concepts we use in the outer structure should be standardized so that they mean the same thing wherever they appear. For instance terms like biology, geology, physics, etc should getonly one equivalent in the Amharic. I mentioned these just because I have been working on them. Otherwise, there may be similar things elsewhere.

Cheers, Ermias

I agree that having one standard Amharic equivalent would be ideal. Of course even in the larger wikipedias there is an ongoing process to try to achieve this. I will have to make "merge" templates so that when two articles on the same subject do arise, all the information can be stored on one page and the other can be "redirected". I am certainly open to any proposals you may have regarding standardizing what terms there are so far at this early stage. Regards, ፈቃደ 20:03, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[ለማስተካከል] do you know how

Amharic wikipedia is going graet. I'm doing the infobox for the states and their counties and cities. If you looked at this article ላ ፓዝ ካውንቲ, አሪዞና, the seal is big in size. I don't know how to add the the width of the image in the template to make it smaller picture. Any help is appreciated.

[ለማስተካከል] user-friendly

Selam. Thankyou for your solution of the template. I have been also thinking about the contribution of other people. For this wiki to expand we need a lot more people than us. I noticed there were other people registerd but I don't if they came back.

We have a great amount of work to do. The most imporant one in my opinion, is we need to establish a standard in english to amharic translation. For example should HTML be called ኤች.ቲ.ኤም.ኤል or something else, and should Northern Arizona Univeristy be titled ሰሜን አሪዞና ዩኒቨርስቲ or ሰሜናዊ አሪዞና ዩኒቨርስቲ or something else. Next we have to get the special pages up and running. Pages like መመርያዎች , የማብዛት ፈቃድ , የጽሑፍ አቀማመጥ እና አጣጣፍ መምሪያ , የጋራ ጥቅም እና የምርምር ምንጮች , አንጸባራቂ ንባቦች እና ፎቶዎች - ምክር ይጠይቁ -ዕቅዶች are very important. Another thing is we should make it even more easier to read the articles and offer all the help we can so people can be able to edit the articles. By the way I'm using sadiss as my text editor for amharic. I wonder if there is a way so that if you want, you can write in the search box and the edit box in amharic directly. This would make life really easy because you don't have to cut and paste. Thankyou. Elfalem 04:34, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

[ለማስተካከል] re:reply

Selam. You are right that wikipedia:naming conventions be moved to Wikipedia:የአርአስትና የስም አጻጻፍ ልምድ. I agree on the things you added to the page. I have the same opinion about the dates. Did you see the other regualtions and policies. By the way I'm using saddis 1.0 [1] to edit the text. I prefer it more than unigeez or anything else. It is the best amharic software I'v seen. I unprotected my page but I don't see any use if I do or not for now. Shouldn't you create sub categories for the languages because It seems we are going to have a lot of language articles.

[ለማስተካከል] what do you think

Selam, I think we have one or more new users. I hope they stay. I am working on the disclaimer page. It is in a sub page in my user page. I would appreciate it if you tell me what you think or add it and edit it. We should also work on the privacy policy page. If you find a suitable amharic title for 'disclaimer' page I want to hear it. Thankyou.

[ለማስተካከል] I agree

I agree on what you said.

[ለማስተካከል] help again

Selam. I am writing web related articles. Do you know any amharic definations for the following words.

  • web browser
  • HTML
  • web template
  • domain name
  • ISP (Internet Service Provider)
  • URL
  • text editor
  • html tags (such as
    ,<html>)
  • navigation bar
  • protocol
  • plug-ins

Thankyou for any help. Elfalem 01:18, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[ለማስተካከል] asking for advice

Hello, I saw your note in the enwiki article on Kurów and immediately recalled you from here, but now I can see that we can meet on angwiki as well. Ah, what a small wikiglobe this is :-)

I was thinking of asking someone competent for their opinion on the course of Amharic available here (each tutorial there comes with a web-based demo). I'd like to learn the language but there are virtually no textbooks in Polish (well, only for advanced learners, and it so happens that this semester at African Studies at my uni they don't offer a beginner course...), and I'm perfectly fine using English-based tutorials. Those offered by AfricanLanguage look fine as demos (bar the occasional mistake in their English), but I'm hesitating as to whether to trust them offhand. I have (of course) no idea how you learned your Amharic, but I thought that perhaps you might be familiar with their offer or perhaps can recommend something else. Naturally, all disclaimers apply and I will assume full responsibility for my final decision :-), The thing is that I need at least a thin basis to make any decision in this regard and I thought of asking you for your opinion. Thanks a bunch. Bansp 01:00, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! Will try it asap. Bansp 23:54, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[ለማስተካከል] Request for article

Greetings Codex Sinaiticus, Can you also help me write a stub http:[2] - just a few sentences based on this article? Just 5-7 sentences would be sufficient enough. Please. -- Jose77, 24 February 2006 (Note: I do not know what the correct title should be in amharic)

Thankyou so much for the article! It looks excellent!

Can you please do one more favor by helping me translate the "Subtitles" of the article into Amharic? Thanks -- Jose77, 28 February 2006

I am very grateful of your help. May God bless you!
Kind regards -- Jose77 04:38, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
If you ever need any articles to be translated to the Chinese, Cantonese or the Taiwanese language, I can always try my best to help you.

ሰላም ኮዴክስ I have added a css for my profile wich permits to read wikipedia am on computers where amharic fonts are NOT INSTALLED with IE.I believe it is a feature wich will please many people who visits wikipedia from places like cybercafés.Would you please tell me if you can generalize it?

I have looked into the rigths of sysOPs:"Admins can edit the style of the interface by changing the CSS in the monobook stylesheet at MediaWiki:Monobook.css.".We can work out the css so that it does not impact those who have their own fonts installed.Can you please tell me if it make sense for you to include it?

There could be also another solution:creating a guest account with the css settled.Those who can not see the fonts who simply log, and the fidels will appear.

I have seen that you explained how to create an account.Is it not a bit discouraging for people? (create an account, log, copy the css,go to the custom css, paste,...) tatari

Thanks for the welcome, Codex; I recognize your user name from the English wiki. As you can see on my userpage, I don't speak more than a few words of Amharic, but I'll help out when I can. If you'd prefer for me not to add commons images to articles so you, or someone else, doesn't have to give them Amharic captions, just say so, but I figure a captionless image is better than none.
