[edit] Marking of English sources
About Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga, I put en icons back, altough I realise that links are assumed to be in English, if not specified otherwise, there are some reasons why these should be marked anyway. It is easier to browse references when sources are in several languages, it even may be confusing sometimes if some sources specify language, while others don't. Sometimes the source can acctualy be bilingual or gives an option to swich languages, but the texts in different languages may differ, specificaly in this case president.lv, which could prove to be good source, is such a website, it may not occur to some people that if they swich languages they might miss something, if it is not specified that references is English ---- Xil/talk 12:55, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joining WikiProject:Latvia
Hey Zalktis. I would be glad to join project Latvia. But please note that I'm very new to contributing to wikipedia and don't now wikiformating good yet.
How do I join? And how do I get banners for my profile page?
Thanks.--Cliff (talk) 00:57, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
I'd love to help where and when I can. I translated the pages for Wilhelm and Friedrich Kettler, for starters, but feel free to correct any of my mistakes! Zilonis (talk) 05:09, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] A new Oxbridge user box
Zalktis...I am currently in the process of writing a user box for all of the colleges that are part of Oxbridge. This template is meant to replace your current college template. Please take a look at the work in progress and comment on it. My main concerns are college abbreviations and color choice. I am using scarf colors for the colleges. Thank you. - LA @ 18:08, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Latvian legion
Hi, you might want to take a look at Talk:Latvian_Legion#Introduction. I thought you might have opinion on this as you did when use of plural and singular was discussed ~~Xil * 23:08, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Can you grab a photo of Zoya?
Dress vs. pants I can't answer. (Maybe a comparison to the young lady with a gun at Ploschad Revolutsii might suggest an answer!)
But could you take (and donate with proper license - e.g. "public domain") a good photo of Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya at Metro Partizanskaya? The problem with all those other pix, is that there is no copyright clearance.
