Wikipedia arrival, 2003[edit]

This section is not for new discussion, please see section Current talk

bonjour !

You have done a good job so far in Wikipedia (a.k.a. 'Pedia or WP). I can see that you're a serious Wikipedian interested in improving our project. If you stay for a while, you'll discovered that collectively, we're a cooperative and friendly community. We are all here to learn, and hopefully can give something back. If you have questions or doubts of any sort, do not hesitate to post them on the Village Pump, somebody will respond ASAP. Other helpful pages include:

Just keep in mind that while relevant discussions and constructive criticisms and are welcome, anything unproductive and/or destructive in nature is not. More importantly, we do not tolerate discrimination of any kind.

Who knows? Perhaps you'll soon become a Wikipediholic and make it into the list of Wikipedia:Most active Wikipedians! :-) --Menchi 14:54 12 Jun 2003 (UTC)

Thanks for the greetings, both of you :) - fraise

N'hésites pas a passer sur la french wiki. Tu es la bienvenue (j'ai récemment décidé d'utiliser le féminin tant que je ne connaissais pas le sexe de mon interlocuteur-trice :-)) Ne serais ce que pour mettre a jour l'article sur la http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/fraise (misère ce que j aimerais que soient mis en place ces liens directs). Ou mettre des recettes américaines. Je n ai toujours pas reussi a faire un corn bread correct :-( ant

Tu as bien fait d'utiliser le féminin dans mon cas! Je ne connais pas grand-chose sur les fraises, à part que j'aime bien en manger. Pour le corn bread, c'est une question d'ingrédients - aux US on utilise une sorte de farine de maïs que je n'ai encore jamais trouvée en France. D'ailleurs la farine de blé toute bête est très différente en France et aux US, car aux US on utilise une farine "brute" qu'on ne trouve pas ici. La farine "française" est trop tamisée pour réussir la plupart des recettes américaines. (Heureusement que la cuisine française n'a pas beaucoup à envier à la cuisine américaine :) - fraise

cela peut etre une explication. Il est toujours trop "sticky". Aucune légèreté. Ca tombe dans l estomac, horrible. Aux US, je l ai vu faire avec une sorte de petit lait en prime. J en trouvais dans l est de la France et en Belgique. Mais ... je n y suis plus.

pour la farine de blé faiblement tamisée, peut etre dans les magasins bio ?

C'est tout de meme vexant :-)

Une wikiwoman

Ca alors, en dix ans sur internet ça ne m'était jamais arrivé, rejoindre un grand site et rencontrer une femme en première :) c'est bon signe, il était temps que ça arrive!

eheh. Nous ne sommes pas nb par ici. Moins d'une dizaine sur en, plus deux postulantes au sexe féminin, sur fr, nous ne sommes que deux. C'est pour cette raison que j ai commencé la page WikiWomen :-). Merci de t'être ajoutée et de m'avoir corrigée. Dès que je vois un prénom à consonnance féminine, je suis attentivement. Note que dans ton cas, c'est la ratatouille qui a attiré mon attention cependant!

Revenons au corn bread - la recette que j'aie n'utilise pas de petit lait, ni de lait du tout, mais le corn bread c'est comme le coq au vin, tout le monde a sa recette. Sinon voici un site sur le cornbread (ça s'écrit avec et sans espace): Cornbread, The Bread of the South, il y a plusieurs recettes. Ah oui, buttermilk! En fait tu peux faire du buttermilk toi-même, en rajoutant une cuillère à soupe de vinaigre de vin blanc pour 200ml de lait. Ca n'aura pas exactement le même goût, mais ça marche assez bien.

bon, il faut que je réessaye absolumment. Justement, en été, avec une ratatouille...ce devrait etre tip top. Un autre plat que j essaye actuellement (avec peu de succès), c'est la galette faite à base de semoule de blé et typiquement consommée en Algérie. En hiver, je cuisine assez traditionnel (les boeuf bourguignons, potées, blanquette de veau et autres punti), mais en été, je pratique plutot la cuisine type méditerranéenne (matinée de tous les lieux ou j ai pu habiter - à Marseille par exemple). Tiens, c'est aux Etats Unis que j ai appris a faire du pain. La température était idéale pour faire monter la pate, et vu qu'il n'y avait aucune boulangerie autour...:-)

Pour la farine de blé, en fait je ne peux pas en manger :( ni de produits laitiers, d'ailleurs. Il y a un an on a enfin trouvé pourquoi j'étais malade et fatiguée tout le temps: intolérance au gluten et à la caséine. Super quand on est en France de ne pouvoir presque rien manger du tout :/ Mais je me souviens encore du temps où j'essayais de faire des cookies avec la farine de blé tamisée, et qu'ils sont sortis du four tout collants et lourds! (Maintenant j'en fais à la farine de riz + tapioca + fécule de pomme de terre, c'est mieux réussi.)

ah, m......tu cumules ! C'est plutot inhabituel que ce genre d'allergie apparaissent à l'age adulte. Je connais surtout des enfants qui ont eu le pb, et pour qui la situation s est améliorée. Pour ma part, je consomme peu de laitages non transformés, le lactose ne passe pas du tout. Mais, c'est extrèmement peu contraignant (sauf aux US lorsque le toubib a essayé de me convaincre de boire un litre de lait par jour lorsque j'étais enceinte. Bad deal ! Cela doit quand meme bcp te limiter en matière de dessert.

J'ai oublié de dire pour le lait + vinaigre = buttermilk: il faut pas le laisser trop longtemps comme ça, sinon ce ne sera pas bon du tout. Le mieux, c'est de faire le mélange juste avant de faire le plat. - fraise

vais essayer...des suggestions de plats ? User:anthere

T^. Wolff[edit]

Bonjour, Fraise. Je passe juste t'informer que j'ai traduit en français l'article Toni Wolff auquel tu as participé (fr:Toni Wolff). Ton avis sur cette traduction serait bienvenu, puisque tu maîtrises cette langue. Archibald Tuttle (talk) 14:09, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Grab some glory, and a barnstar[edit]

Hi, I'd like to invite you to participate in the Guild of Copy Editors July 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive. In May, about 30 editors helped remove the {{copyedit}} tag from 1175 articles. The backlog is still over 7500 articles, and extends back to the beginning of 2008! We really need your help to reduce it. Copyediting just a couple articles can qualify you for a barnstar. Serious copyeditors can win prestigious and exclusive rewards. See the event page for more information. And thanks for your consideration. ɳorɑfʈ^Talk! 14:46, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Copyediting[edit]

Bonjour Fraise, pourriez-vous copie éditer Louis XVIII svp ? Regards, -- Jack1755 (talk) 14:55, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oui, merci pour l'astuce, je suis en train de le réviser ("copyediting" étant "relecture" ou "révision" en français :) ) Cheers --fraise (talk) 15:05, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merci Madame -- Jack1755 (talk) 20:34, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You![edit]

Thank You Fraise! You have done marvellous work on Louis XVIII! Your copyediting is idispensible. Thanks again -- Jack1755 (talk) 20:22, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Usurpation requests[edit]

I confirm that I am Fraise on enwiki, frwiki, cowiki, nowiki, commonswiki and enwikiquote. In preparation for a global account with username Fraise, I would like to usurp the Fraise accounts on ~~eswikibooks (0 edits)~~ done, ~~rowiki (0 edits)~~ done, ~~dewiki (0 edits)~~ done, and ~~metawiki (0 edits)~~ done. For the Fraise on svwiki (165 edits), rename is fine, just so that username Fraise is free. Thanks --fraise (talk) 09:47, 28 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your usurpation request at ro:Wikipedia:Schimbarea numelui de utilizator#Fraise was completed, but you need to create your SUL account as soon as possible (normally, this should be done before the usurpation request). Razvan Socol (talk) 07:01, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, but I actually have created an SUL account; it cannot yet be confirmed since there is still one user (on the Swedish wiki) not usurped/renamed. (I don't know why the SUL tool doesn't show the account that's in progress.) --fraise (talk) 08:21, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I'm a sysop of es.Wikibooks (Wikilibros). You ask for a SUL Request because there was a inactive user. You can do the SUL.

Regards. Kojie (talk) 00:30, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

PD: Excuse me my worst English...

Thank you! (and no worries, it's fine!) --fraise (talk) 13:53, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

French Language[edit]

I have reinstated some of the French language article changes, as the information you provided is not accurate, please join in the discussion on the talk page. Merci! --Mrboire (talk) 15:13, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Not accurate" is false, and you would appear to speak French well enough to be fully aware of that. Also, calling France French a "dialect" calls into question your neutrality on the issue. Please be less disingenuous in the future, as otherwise your comments about the specificities to Québec are worthy. Arguments can be made with the spirit of compromise and education (personally I'm glad to have learned that "comme ci, comme ça" is in fact a common expression in Québec; I had no idea, my Québecois French university professor never said it). --fraise (talk) 12:53, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Islam in Burma[edit]

I'm going to continue your copyedit. If you return, please post my on my talk before continuing to avoid edit conflicts. I'll also remove the GOCEinuse template when I'm done. ErikTheBikeMan (talk) 01:43, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Translating[edit]

Salut, Fraise. I saw you're listed among those who can translate content from French to English, plus have professional translation and technical writing experience. I wondered if you might be willing to translate Phare de Cordouan from the French Wikipedia?

The existing enwiki article comprises a paragraph from the 1907 Nuttall Encyclopædia and material on décor and origin added by an IP-editor in December '08. As the Nuttall content is patchy and far better sources exist, I'm fine with dropping it. The IP-editor's addition, cited to a 1959 book, has a 'floral' prose style which suggests that may be, uhm, shall we say 'closely paraphrased'. Again the better material of the French article and in sources available to me mean that's replaceable. Thank you kindly. –Whitehorse1 20:59, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A Weaver on the Horizon[edit]

Hi, I hope to have an uninvolved editor doing a copy edit of an article of the CHinese TV seriel A Weaver on the Horizon, for grammar and structrure. I would appreciate it if someone did. Thank you.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 05:30, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done! Thanks for the request, I enjoyed learning about this series. (I happen to have a strong interest in fabric arts and also in China!) --fraise (talk) 09:17, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the copy editing, and glad that you enjoyed learning about this series. If you like this, you probably would like Startling by Each Step. Thanks again.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 19:45, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Translation English to French - text already translated, requesting assistance to incorporate into French Wikipedia[edit]

Good Greetings - I created the article Olav Zipser and have had the content professionally translated into French. I personally do not speak French and so incorporating the translated text into the French Wikipedia is challenging. Please could I request you to assist with incorporating the translated text into the French Wikipedia and making all of the relevant links etc... not sure how best to go about this so asking for assistance of active Wikipedians I can find who are listed on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Translators_available

On communication from you I can email you the word document of the translation which has been completed per section.

Many thanks in advance for your assistance Quadtripplea (talk) 11:17, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please let me know if you will be able to assist with this request. Thanks in advance Quadtripplea (talk) 17:29, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I won't have time, sorry. Thanks --fraise (talk) 19:06, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 06:09, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion on 'Jacques Abeille' article[edit]

Hello there, Fraise, I'm Demian Stratford and I'm working on the article about Jacques Abeille. He was a French author who died on January 2022. I'm basing it on the original French article but with an expanded lead paragraph (as per recommendations), different section structure and different wording where it applies. I see you're part of Wikiproject France (where it's mentioned you can help with copy-editing) and you have also an academic background on literature. It's been quite hard to get people interested in this article (it hasn't even been reviewed), some tell me they would change the prose in certain sections but that's too vague, so I'm looking for someone to read it and see if they can do copy-editing to improve the quality of the article. If you have the time to help me that would be great, or if you could give me an opinion, that would also be appreciated. Thanks. DemianStratford (talk) 08:06, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Demian - checking it out now on this quiet, rainy Saturday! At first glance, you've done a lot of work, congrats. Will edit as I go. fraise (talk) 08:15, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Finished copyediting - the French translations did indeed need quite a bit of cleaning up. Formal French prose (like that often used on French literary Wikipedia articles) is quite passive and often needs rewritten for clarity in English. fraise (talk) 09:15, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to edit the article, it really means a lot to me, Fraise :D DemianStratford (talk) 15:25, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A bowl of strawberries for you![edit]
