Fossil Fuel Alternatives

Hi. The page Fossil Fuel Alternatives you created seems to be identical with How Stuff Works. I put a Copyright violation notice on it, and will list it on Wikipedia:Copyright problems. Feel free to comment on this page. If i am mistaken, then my apologies. -- chris_73 07:07, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Blimps vs airships

Thanks for the addtion to the blimp article about high altitude applications. I took the liberty of moving this to the more general "airship" article. The contents of the blimp page focuses fairly narrowly on the existing type of airships and applications. Regards. Blimpguy 15:03, 16 Jun 2004 (UTC)

OK on the airship move. I'm glad somebody is interested in it and organizing the articles. It strikes my imagination. Launch pad into outerspace, castle in the sky etc.. --Jondel 00:16, 17 Jun 2004 (UTC)

NG & MGA

Hey John,

I noticed that you added Section 6.2.2 concerning the pronunciation of NG and MGA. Do you think it's necessary? I really don't think so dahil ipinaliwanag ko ang pronunciation ng mga 'yun sa Section 5.1 (Nouns). What do you think?

--Chris 10:04, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Chris ,I do feel it is needed even if it is repetitive. To the amusement of Filipinos, I've heard many non-filipinoes mis-pronounce or literaly pronounce those words. Readers may miss out on the lengthy grammar at section 6. and may want to focus on spelling only. I need to see it very clearly said. However, if it will dampen your devotion to contributing and maintaining the article please go ahead and delete with my blessing. Keep up the good work. Jondel

John, you do have a point. I decided to keep the section but I modified it. :-)

Malay Words

Locating Malay borrowings into Tagalog can be tricky. There are many words in Tagalog & Malay that are the same. Many of these similar words come from a source - Proto-Western Malayo-Polynesian which was a thousand or so of years ago.

The cognates you listed such as lima and anak are these kinds of words. How so? They are attested in other Austronesian languages throughout the world. Tagalog didn't borrow it from Malay and vice versa.

To find Malay borrowings, one has to look at vocabulary from languages that are related to Tagalog. When I was looking at my wordlists, I realized that only Pangasinan and Tagalog use masaráp while others used words like lami or namit or whatever. I did find that Malay had sedap and determined that if sarap were a native Tagalog word, it would've been *sirap. (See the historical phonology part). It's kind of like saying the English word hand is borrowed from German but they're really from an earlier language.

In any case, I removed the words you added except for tulong. I'm unsure of this origin. I know it's used in Ilokano & Pangasinan while tabang is the norm in Central Philippine languages. I'll leave it on the list.

--Chris 10:24, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Chris, Sorry for my non-linguistic /non-categorization approach. Lima and anak were probably not borrowed but in the original Tagalog. I just wanted to place words that were the same or similar. But then it might become difficult for you place all the cognates like Hawaiian, Tausug, etc.. My source of words were Indonesians classmates. I assumed that these basic words are the same. My classmates here in Japan were from Malaysia and Indonesia. I never expected other foreigners to look like Filipinoes. I was amazed at their similiraties. From afar, Malaysians and Indonesians sound like Filipinoes. They taught me these words and some phrases. I communicated more with the Indonesians than with the Malaysians. The words may or may not have been borrowed but I am very sure of these words are the same or similar in Indonesean(spelling may be wrong):tulong-tolong, lima, lalaki/lelaki, kalapati/merpati, inum/menum (Japanese nomu), si(to indicate the person),mahal, mura, baho, badwords like puki, baho(I thought it was Spanish at first), etc.. 'Tolong' does exist in their language. It is probably not borrowed but probably part of the original ancient Tagalog as with all other Austronesian language. Sedap sekali means very delicious. To eat , they say 'makan' like in Ilokano and Pampangueno(?). Where are you going is 'Perrgi kerr mana?'(Spelling is bad).Also like visaya, they say ini(this). I will leave this to you edit/categorize.--Jondel 10:52, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

No problem. And yes, you're right about those observants. Those are indeed cognates and would be more appropriate under a cognates category. I made the Austronesian Comparison Chart but the scope is limited to 12 words.

KA(A)N is the rootword in Ilokano and Kapampangan, but when affixed to ma- it changes to MANGAN. The word for eat are derived from the Proto-Austronesian, if I remember correctly, *kaen.

Thanks... --Chris 18:57, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)

La Liga Filipina

Thanks for this post! It made me realize that there are plenty of topics regarding the Philippines that have not been posted yet! I wikified your entry and added the stated date of Dr. Rizal's exile to Dapitan to the 1892 list of events. Raymer

Sure. Have fun! There are a lot of things that really haven't been added. The article itself needs a lot of info. --Jondel 12:31, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Trace of original Spanish pronunciation in Tagalog

You wrote:

What is j used to be x, in Spanish and pronouced as the j ( jsh sound) in French. ->See 'The name' section in Mexico. Mexico should have been Mejico but due to Mexican nationalism, blocked this orthographical change

I looked back at my post and then read the section about Mexico. I found that I made a mistake. Since jabón was xabón, the x was pronounced like sh in English. That would be the ch in French and the x of Catalan and Portuguese.

Child Prodigy

Hi Jondel,

Thanks for your message on my usertalk. I moved Shakuntala Devi from the list of mathematicians because she is NOT a mathematician. She is exceptionally gifted in calculations with numbers but that does not make anybody a mathematician. calculations with numbers is to mathematics what alphabet is to Literature.

I removed Robert Gupta from the list because it is VERY common for not just 14 year olds but even 10 year olds and younger to enter music conservatories like The Juilliard School of music in New York city. If every one of those is to be listed as prodigy then the list would be literally unending. The list would then contain the likes of Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman, Gil Shaham .................

Ergativity in Tagalog

Does Tagalog qualify as an Ergative-absolutive language ?

Yes, it does. But ergativity is different in every language. Looking at the examples that were provided in that article that was written by the late Larry Trask, here's how I'd change it to reflect Tagalog.

Gizona etorri da. "The man has arrived."
Gizonak mutila ikusi du. "The man saw the boy."

Dumating ang lalaki. "The man has arrived."
Nakita ng lalaki ang bata. "The man saw the boy."

'In Basque, gizon is "man", mutil is "boy", and a suffixed -a shows the definite form ("the"). You will notice that gizon is different depending on whether it is the subject of a transitive or intransitive verb. The first form is in the absolutive case (marked by a null morpheme) and the second form is in the ergative case (marked by a suffixed -k).

In Tagalog, lalaki is "man", "bata" is "boy" and an article preceding it which could mean either "the" or "a". You will notice that the word preceding lalaki is different depending on whether it is the subject of a transitive or intransitive verb. The first form is in the absolutive case (marked by the article ang) and the second form is in the ergative case (marked by the article ng).

There is a tendancy to say that Tagalog is usually spoken in the passive, but that analogy really isn't accurate.

Ibanag

Just noticed and am curious. Why the interest in Ibanag? I've Ibanag roots (my great-great grandfather) and I find the language beautiful. --Chris 06:24, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

No particular reason. I just have a Filipino friend here, in Tokyo, who speaks Ibanag from the north.(I travelled as far as Tugegarao, Cagayan) I haven't learned any phrases. I have Ilocano blood though. Are there Indonesian and Spanish words, like makan(to eat) in Ibanag? --Jondel 07:02, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Makan (root kaan) is an Indonesian congate and not borrowing per se. But yes, Ibanag does have it. Here are some Ibanag phrases from my notes:

Anni kinnan mu ganguri? (Ano ang kinain mo kanina?)

Anni kinnan nu? (Ano ang kinain ninyo?)

Anni kankanan mu? (Ano ang kinakain mo?)

Anni noka i kanan mu? (Ano ang kakainin mo mamaya?)

Kumat tam ta labbe na. (Pagdating niya, kakain tayo.)

Maddakguk kami kuman turi ta labbe na. (Pagdating niya, kumakain kami.)

Nakakak kami nakwan nu limibbe yayya. (Kung dumating sana siya, nakakain sana kami.)

Ari ka kuman. (Huwag kang kumain).

--Chris 02:51, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Why not create a page then? I gatherred material and may rewrite them. Is it ok if I post the above phrases ?--Jondel 02:54, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I don't have enough information about Ibanag - other than my notes - to write a satisfactory article. A stub, perhaps. And go ahead and create Ibanag language with the phrases above.

Kinaray-a

Kinaray is not a dialect of Hiligaynon. Kinaray-a belongs to the Western Visayan language family and its grammar is very much different than Hiligaynon. It even has a vowel that Hiigaynon lacks - the schwa vowel found in Ilokano and Ibanag. It's more closely related to Aklanon and Onhan of Romblon. The languages also have alternative pronouns which I mention in my blog: [1]

Hiligaynon on the other hand is a Central Visayan language which is closely related to Romblomanon and Capiznon. Also to Waray-Waray. You can see the groupings at Visayan languages. --Chris 04:30, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Aum

Aum is an important concept, but I entirely fail to understand why you put in the word disambig page. Did you put it in as a counterpoint to the Christian sense of "word?" After all, "Aum" doesn't translate to "Word of God" or "the word," but rather to "Eternal yea" (according to the article.) Can you explain your edit? I'm of the opinion that disambig pages ought to be lean and mean; maybe there's a better article that we can make a link to Aum from. --Ardonik.talk() 02:02, Sep 8, 2004 (UTC)

It is Ok to remove the AUM. But for what it 's worth , this is the way I understand it. God, Infinity , the Cosmos can not be understood by infinite man. However , we need a referrence to him which is (to me)Logos and AUM . Logos/Aum represents the essence and vibration of God.--Jondel 02:12, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)

How about a sentence in Logos such as "Aum is a similar concept in Hinduism" (though I doubt that wording is accurate as it is.) --Ardonik.talk() 02:14, Sep 8, 2004 (UTC)

Since there is a Tao reference, I think that would be good. How about this wording: 'Perhaps a similar concept Hindu cosmology is the 'Aum'. ?--Jondel 02:27, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)

You know more about Hinduism than I do, so you're a better judge of what wording is appropriate :-) Given that particular sentence, I would word it as "Hindu cosmology also has a similar concept called the Aum." and put the sentence at the end of Logos. In fact, I just did it. --Ardonik.talk() 02:39, Sep 8, 2004 (UTC)

I think this is OK. I hope some comparative philosophist would edit it in the future. --Jondel 02:42, 8 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Henry the Black

You're welcome! it's an interesting entry. You've got to give us a translation of his title "Panglima Awang" however. Wetman 05:15, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I'm glad your interested. Panglima means the 5th. Awang, I don't know. I'm from the Philippines not Malaysia. The source of info on the Panglima name is Malaysian. The Filipinos don't know him as Panglima. Pls try to click on N. Enriquez(at the acknowledgements) at the bottom of the page. He is supposed to be a descendent of Henry the Black. He is very accomodating. --Jondel 05:21, 10 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Copyright violations

This article (Edgar Cayce on Karma) appears to have directly copied from http://www.thenazareneway.com/karma.htm. Please respond on the article's talk page and refrain from posting content copied from elsewhere unless it is clearly allowed. -- Netoholic @ 04:34, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

Netoholic pls understand that it is them who are doing the copyrignt violations. I recognize my own way of writing. I wrote this original. Please investigate.--Jondel 04:36, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

According to the article's history log, you posted it at "08:38, 2004 Aug 4". Google's cache of that page says it was available "Aug 3, 2004 06:32:18 GMT". -- Netoholic @ 05:56, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

You'll have to go to the older Karma Page. The article originally was part of the Karma page. It was about to be halved by user Lords of Shurya so I did it myself. Look at the Karma history page. Google says Aug. 3. I posted on the Karma page about Cayce as early as June to July. --Jondel 06:01, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Most of that text was posted in February in one edit, but's impossible to say for sure who copied what and when. Contact the website owner. Unless they can confirm that they copied it from here (and give Wikipedia proper credit), we'll probably have to assume that our text came from them. -- Netoholic @ 06:15, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

ONE EDITS

Single -edits occur because I write out my drafts then edit and correct before uploading which is a practise of good writing technique. MY ONE EDITS ARE NOT BECAUSE I MADE A COPY AND PASTE WHICH LAZY PEOPLE AND THOSE LACKING IN INTELIGENCE IMMEDIATELY OR ARE QUICK TO CONCLUDE.--Jondel 01:15, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Follow-up some parts may have been copied from [2] and placed into the article here. You do seem to prefer re-writing existing text rather than writing your own, based on all these things. -- Netoholic @ 06:23, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

My article is on the Edgar Cayce portion. The Hindu material is not mine.It will take time to contact the website owner, so pls give me time. My source came from books on his readings. They did not come from the reference you are siting above but they are very well known.--Jondel 06:19, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Are these your edits from before you registered? -- Netoholic @ 06:29, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

No. I don't remember what I contributed before registration. I don't contribute to Hindu/Indian articles , more of new age.--Jondel 06:54, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Did you also write HSDL-9100-021 proximity sensor yourself? Did all these websites and Agilent itself copy your text as well? I am still checking your other contributions, but this can lead to editing blocks, or worse. -- Netoholic @ 04:44, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

HSDL-9100-021 proximity sensor was rewritten and since they are press release they are semi-public domain.

Press releases are not public domain, and cannot be treated as such. -- Cyrius|✎ 04:55, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

They were rewritten and I'm sure this option is condoned. Please see Alternatives .--Jondel 05:21, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Jondel - You may not directly copy words from another source. You are allowed to start from scratch and write an encyclopedia article about the subject, but if you base your work on an external source, you must add a References section and give proper credit. Get very familiar with Wikipedia:Cite sources and Wikipedia:Copyrights. I would suggest re-visiting your old articles which you may have borrowed from other sources, and reference them properly. If you directly copied any, post about them on Wikipedia:Copyright problems so that those versions can be removed. -- Netoholic @ 05:45, 2004 Sep 16 (UTC)

Pleae check the history of Tagalog (not Tagalog Language) the cross reference with Googles log for age the site you mention. Check the wordings. The Tagalog page should be the original.--Jondel 07:04, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Please continue to get confirmation from the website authors, but please understand that as a project, I don't think we can afford to just get your word. Please ask the authors to give proper credit to Wikipedia, if they used our words. To be honest, it is my belief that you tend to copy a lot of text directly, from websites and press releases, and then only slighty change it for inclusion here. Please check yourself on this.

I do have another concern to raise, on my Talkpage, and others, you've left many messages indicating that you feel I am insulting "your works".

I don't engage in revenge but I need to protect myself or works.

Please know that talking about articles as "yours" or "your work" is not a good way to act. I suggest reading Wikipedia:Ownership of articles for more about this. -- Netoholic @ 03:05, 2004 Sep 17 (UTC)

Responce to Netoholic

Dear Netaholic,

Thank you for your responce and participation it shows that you may be an ethical adult after all.,

I apologize for the uncivil remark.

1) >Please continue to get confirmation from the website authors, but please understand that as a project, I don't think we can afford to just get your word. Please ask the authors to give proper credit to Wikipedia
Ok, where do I post the e-mails replies? On the concerned pages or Here? I then would like to create a separate archive. All have replied. If this resolved , I can work on the Agilent next. I might be posting them on the concerned pages in a while.

2) One violator(embracezine.com) wants to apologize to wikipedia.
Whose 'official wikipidia e-mail address do give?

3) * I just want the pages restored. *

>Please know that talking about articles as "yours" or "your work" is not a good way to act.
Does this insult you? I apologize.OK so I don't really own the pages. The Ownership of Articles is good. It is helping me to understand things well.

I also have read that the articles will be edited mercillessly which I accept.

a)Are you going to delete or remove the page mercilessly then? b) Does this mean that the pages stay removed and with the status of Copy violation?

4) >I don't think we can afford to just get your word.
Hello, what are you talking about? There's not only my word now. There 's been plenty of evidence surfacing. The dates(about E.C. on Karma), which you yourself have checked strongly suggest that the Nazarane copied from the original Karma page. A similar situation with the Languages. Do I have to copy and paste here the replies Lupos, seav, Davodd, Golpez, DanBlackhams? By the way, I have the e-mails which you requested. So as in 1) where do I post the e-mails which will help clarify this?
Acknowledgements by the way to Lupos for his hard work in researching everything. Also the nazarene has responded not claiming copyright ownership.

5) >To be honest, it is my belief that you tend to copy a lot of text directly, from websites and press releases, and then only slighty change it for inclusion here. Please check yourself on this.
Come on Netaholic. With the Agilent press release I worked hard to reword this as well as produce a better article than the original. I'm cutting and pasting Davodd 's reply: >Re-writing original text does not violate copyright laws. Facts and ideas cannot be copyrighted.

I will take this up with you next but I will work on the other 2 websites first. I might e-mail the PR of agilent about this.

Best regards,--Jondel 04:56, 17 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't notice you had claimed this earlier today & I just went and translated it. You may want to cross-check. Jmabel 07:37, Sep 24, 2004 (UTC)

Slan

Are you sure on the Slan being the results of random mutation? Having looked at the reviews on the web it seems that most people think they are the result of deliberate manipulation. I'll have to go back and check the book... - User:Fritz freiheit.

See the last external reference and do check the book. The first slans were twins then single child (children) were born. The Amazon.com review is wrong.--Jondel 13:06, 4 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I think that's the first time I've ever seen a test page become an article. I didn't even know who he was. Thank you. SWAdair | Talk 10:45, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

But it does happen. That is also a way to get an article written. Like an article request. The anonymous guy who posted it probably doesn't know wiki policies. And only Filipinos would know if he was significant. Else, it should be deleted.--Jondel 10:59, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

esTotW

Since you put your name down as a spanish to english traslator i thought you might be interested in the new Spanish translation of the week collaboration project. This weeks collaboration is Género chico.(Disclosure: this is a bit of a "mass mailing", I'm working my way down the list of Spanish-to-English translators.)

Thanks! Mucho fantastico. So...What article?--Jondel 23:24, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The Sandbox

When editing in the sandbox, please do not change the line that says "please do not change this line" as it contains a very important notice. I would assume it was simply a newbie test, but judging by the size of your talk page you probably aren't. In future, please confine your tests to the lower section of the page. Thanks,--Honeycake 07:05, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Sorry, ok.--Jondel 07:10, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)
