Hi, I'm writing to you because of your football photos posted on flickr. I noticed, that some of them you put on Commons servers, but all of your's work on flickr is copyrighted. Is there a possibility to upload here some of this photos? If you could, please unswer on my polish site discussion. It will be easier for me to notice your answer, thanks. Arvedui89 kjak

For example
* Nice, sharp picture
* Great close-up
* Nice close-up
* For Víkingur Gøta article
* For articles about both FC Suðuroy and B68
* For AG article
* For B36 article
* For article about FC Suðuroy
* VB, which is a photo not to be repeated
As you know, there are good (in quality) photos of just one match from 2008 (HB-NSI), so every big, sharp picture is a fullworthy one :) There is no picture of ÍF, KÍ, B68, poor image of AG etc.
You know the rules about licences, so I don't have to remind you. Also you know, that ypu're free to choose wich pics you want to upload. Just give them simplier names, not like Jón Krosslá Poulsen A Faroese Football Player.jpg. If I can ask you, don't use diacritic signs in file's name. Instead of Hjalgrím Elttør A Faroese Football Player.jpg, Hjalgrim Elttor.jpg or Hjalgim Elttor (2010).jpg would have been great.

Hi, thanks for the info. Well, I have been a bit confused about all these different terms of copyright and non-copyrighted photos. I have chosen the recommended category on Wikimedia commons, but on Flickr they are called by different names and none are recommended especially, so I have obviously chosen a wrong category, I thought it was okay for Commons, but I can see now that I was wrong. And thanks for your suggestions about the name of the files. Anyway, I have uploaded two of the phots which you mentioned above and added them to the articles about Víkingur Gøta and B36 Tórshavn, I have chosen another photo of B36 Tórshavn which is not on Flickr. I don't have time to continue right now, but I will do it later.
Greetings from the Faroe Islands.

Hello! Please, could you translate these words to Faroese: inflow (Danish: tilløb), outflow (Danish: afløb). Thank you in advance. RgC 23. apr 2011 kl. 13:40 (UTC)

:Hello. Outflow (Danish: afløb) would be "Frárensl" in Faroese. I am not sure about the other word (Tilløb in Danish, Inflow in English). In which context would you like to use it? I can see three different meanings of the word Inflow on Wikipedia, hydrology (In hydrology, the source of the water in a body of water), meteorology (air that flows inwards to a thunderstorm) and Infiltration/Inflow, inappropriate connection of surface runoff drains into sanitary sewers. Which of theese meanings is it that you wish to know the Faroese word for. I can't seem to find the word right now, but if you tell me in which connection the word is, then I can ask someone who knows about these tecnical terms. EileenSanda 23. apr 2011 kl. 15:07 (UTC)

:: Talking about words inflow and outflow I mean hydrological terms (and nouns). RgC 23. apr 2011 kl. 18:51 (UTC)

: Hello again. I have asked a teacher about these two words, he gave me this answer (it is in Faroese):
Í ensk føroysku orðabókini stendur fyri "inflow" (The English Faroese dictionary says):
innrensl, innrák, tilrend, tilfløðing, tilflutningur, veiting
og fyri "outflow" (and for "outflow"):
1) (serst. um løg og pengar) útstreyming, útrensl, floymur (t.d. steady outflow of illegal currency)
2) (fl.m.) floymur (t.d. outflow of bad language).

Hej igen, Eileen!
Jag arbetar vidare med kategoriseringen, men eftersom jag inte är så bra på färöisk grammatik, är det ibland svårt att hitta rätt balknamn. Är Fólk eftir land eller Fólk eftir landi bäst namn på en balk för balkarna :Bólkur:Danir, :Bólkur:Føroyingar, :Bólkur:Sviar, och så vidare?
(Alltså det som på engelska heter :en:Category:People by country.)
PS: Jag rättar inte så gärna på andras brukarsidor utan lov; men om du vill, så rättar jag gärna länkarna på din engelska brukarsida :en:User:EileenSanda. Du har råkat länkat till fo:EileenSanda i stället för fo:Brúkari:EileenSanda, som du väl tänkte, och glömde på samma sätt "Bruger:" i den andra länken.

*Hey Joegen, "Fólk eftir landi" er tað rætta. Eg dugi ikki at síggja at eg havi skrivað brúkaranavnið skeivt í tí ensku brúkarasíðuni hjá mær, men tú ert vælkomin at rætta tað um tú sær feilin aftur. Vinarlig heilsan EileenSanda 20. mai 2011 kl. 20:37 (UTC)

Hei Eileen! Tusen hjertelig takk for hjelpen med artikkelen om terrorangrepet i Norge. Jeg syns du gjør en kjempebra jobb her! Niceley 24. juli 2010 kl. 16:03 (UTC)

: Hey Nicolai. Takk fyri tað, og sjálvur takk, tú hevur gjørt sera stórt arbeiði á tí føroysu Wikipediuni. Ræðuligt hatta sum hendi í Noregi. Vinarliga EileenSanda 4. aug 2011 kl. 09:58 (UTC)

Guten Morgen Eileen, ich habe gerade gesehen, dass du die Kategorie:Medien (Fjølmiðlar) angelegt hast. Kannst du mir sagen, was "Mediengeschichte" auf Färöisch heißt (:de:Kategorie:Mediengeschichte)? Grüße aus Deutschland --Wiki-Updater 2.0 4. aug 2011 kl. 05:06 (UTC)

: Guten Morgen. Ich glaube das es heißt "Fjølmiðlasøga" auf Färöisch. Grüße aus Suðuroy - EileenSanda 4. aug 2011 kl. 09:54 (UTC)

Danke! --Wiki-Updater 2.0 4. aug 2011 kl. 19:52 (UTC)

Hej, jag håller på med att rätta färöiska systemmeddelanden på translatewiki (genom att föra över meddelanden som allaredan finns lokalt omsatta här på Wikipedia). Av de vanligaste meddelandena saknas dock en omsättning för "Read", som finns ovanför varje artikel. Jag vågar dock inte omsätta det själv, så jag undrar om du skulle vilja hjälpa mig? Skulle skoða eller lesa/les passa?
(Jag hoppas att du kan läsa svenska, om inte kan jag gärna skriva på engelska =) ) Diupwijk 2. sep 2011 kl. 14:47 (UTC)

Jeg ville tro at "Les" ville være det korrekte ord at bruge. "Skoða" betyder mere "Se" (Look). Det hedder "at lesa, eg lesi, tú lesur, hann lesur, vit lesa, tey lesa" og Les i "boðshátti".

:Tack för hjälpen. Les låter bra. Diupwijk 3. sep 2011 kl. 14:01 (UTC)

Hej igen, Eileen!
Jag tänkte försöka få litet ordning på kulturbalkarna. Det är ju litet konstigt att ha både :Bólkur:Savn och :Bólkur:Søvn í Føroyum, både :Bólkur:Ítróttur och :Bólkur:Ítróttur í Føroyum, och så vidare, i toppbalken :Bólkur:Mentan. Det blir ännu rörigare om det kommer artiklar om museer, idrott, dans och kyrkor i andra länder, och vi skapar balkar för dem också.
Mitt förslag är att lägga in de färöiska kulturbalkarna i en ny underbalk för färöisk kultur, i stället för direkt i toppbalken. Jag undrar dock om denna borde heta Mentan í Føroyum, Menta í Føroyum, eller Mentir í Føroyum. Min ordbok ger "Mentir (f. pl.)" (motsvarande huk. fl.) som "kultur", så det är vad jag skulle ha trott vara bäst. Huvudkategorin fick namnet Mentan av Quackor; men jag vet inte varför.
år man många kulturbalkar, så kan man lägga in Mentir(-an, -a) í Føroyum i en ny underbalk Mentir(-an, -a) eftir landi till Mentan, men just nu behövs inte detta, tycker jag.
Vad tycker du?
Med vänlig hälsning, Jörgen B 11. okt 2011 kl. 19:04 (UTC)

Hey Jørgen B. Mentan er tað rætta, ikki Mentir ella Menta, bara Mentan í Føroyum. Jo, jeg tror at det ville være ok, om du opretter en ny gruppe for kultur på Færøerne, (uden at jeg har undersøgt dette), umiddelbart lyder det som en god idé. Jeg villle bara skynde mig at svare, så du ikki opretter gruppen med forkert navn. Mentan har vistnok ikke nogen flertalsform, ligesom Kultur på dansk heller ikke har flere former (ental, flertal). Når man taler om flere kulturer, så hedder det på færøsk "Ymiskar mentanir", men i det tilfælde som du nævner, så skal det bare hedde "Mentan í Føroyum" (Kultur på Færøerne). Forresten, gruppen "Savn" skulle hellere være i flertal "Søvn". Med venlig hilsen EileenSanda 11. okt 2011 kl. 20:11 (UTC)

:Nå, ingen risk, så bråttom var det ju icke.

:(Du får gärna svara på färöiska, om du vill; jag läser färöiska utan stora problem, men har svårt att skriva korrekt.) Inte minst vet jag ofta inte vilka kasus som skall användas i olika sammanhang. Jag gissade t.d. nyss att svenska i sång och sägen blir í sangi og søgn på färöiska; men det kan vara helt fel. (Du får gärna språkvaska Norska Løva, som jag inte kunde balka utan att lägga till litet text!)

:Du har naturligtvis rätt vad gäller :Bólkur:Savn!

:Med stort tack, Jörgen B 11. okt 2011 kl. 21:05 (UTC)

::Eg havi rættað tekstin í greinini um Norsku Løvu, og lagt nakrar keldur og skrivað meira tekst, sera spennandi søga. Ja, tað hugsaði eg nokk, at tú skilir væl at lesa á føroyskum, annars hevði tú nokk ikki verið so aktivur her :) Vinarliga EileenSanda 12. okt 2011 kl. 00:05 (UTC)

:::Flott!

:::Jag har skapat den nya :Bólkur:Søvn, och flyttat allt innehåll dit, och ändrat i :en:Category:Museums. (Tyvärr kan man ju inte flytta en balk direkt! Den gamla balken ligger nu i :Bólkur:Strikingarboð, som du kan se.)

:::Mitt intresse för färöiska och Färöarna beror egentligen från början på ett stort intresse för nordiska så kallade medeltidsballader. De färöiska kvädena är ju de allra förnämsta av dem, åtminstone av dem man känner till. Det gör att mitt språk kanske blir litet snedviklat...

:::Jag kan nog utan svårighet översätta t.d. De kastade ankar på vitan sand, och först satte N.N. foten på land till färöiska, men det är nu så sällan man har nytta av den sortens meningar i wikipediaartiklar:-) Likaså, när jag skulle hitta rätt ord för vad som hände med Norska Løva, så fick jag utgå från Hørspuríma:

::::"Søkk nú, søkk nú, systir mín; eg skal hava biðil tín!"

:::för att hitta något ord att slå på. Jag har fortfarande bara ordböcker från färöiska till svenska eller engelska, vilket gör det hela extra krångligt... Det är därför jag mest ägnar mig åt balkarna!

:::Lev väl, Jörgen B 12. okt 2011 kl. 15:49 (UTC)

Hej igen!
Tack för att du tittar på de grenar jag redigerar... Du får mycket gärna titta på Skógfriðingarnevndin också; den skrev jag ju från grunden, så det blev mycket slående i ordlistor och grubbel över kasusformer. (Jag kom in på den därför att den flitige Ejler Djurhuus också hunnit med att sitta i denna nämnd, så den dök upp när jag googlade på honom.)
Bland annat no-wp har rätt trevliga mallar (fyrimyndir) för språkvask, som man kan lägga på själv (eller någon annan kan lägga på), om man misstänker att språket behöver förbättras. Det kanske skulle vara läge att göra på liknande sätt här. Vad tycker du?
En annan fråga: Har du funderat på om du skulle vilja vara en av administratrerna på fo-wp? (Se Wikipedia:Umboðsstjóri för vad det innebär; fast en del av det som räknas upp kan man också göra som vanlig användare, som att flytta sidor.) Då skulle du t. d. kunna gå igenom :Bólkur:Strikingarboð, och ta bort de sidor du håller med om borde tas bort.
Om du vill, så lägger jag upp ett förslag om att du görs till administratör! M. v. h., Jörgen B 15. okt 2011 kl. 20:21 (UTC)

Hey Jørgen. Eg havi rættað í greinini um Skógfriðingarnevndina. Eg hevði onki havt ímóti um eg gjørdist umboðsstjóri. Havi hugsa um tað onkuntíð, men visti ikki rættiliga hvussu man blívur tað, og um eg fór at duga tað. Men tað skal eg nokk finna útav, so tú mást gjarna skjóta meg upp til umboðsstjóra (administrator). Hatta tú nevnir viðvíkjandi málreinsan og fyrimyndir, tað kenni eg ikki til. Eg skal vita um eg finni tað á no-wp. Jú, tað hevði nokk verið gott at havt eina slíka fyrimynd her eisini, eg meini at eg havi sæð tað onkrastaðnis. Vinarliga EileenSanda 15. okt 2011 kl. 23:16 (UTC)

:Tack för rättelserna! Och du har igen förbättrat balkstrukturen! Jag undrar om vi också kunde skapa en balk för "ekologi"; vad heter det på färöiska?

:Titta gärna på t. d. :no:Mal:Uoversatt, och på Se også där, om du vill!

:Vad gäller "kraven" på en administratör: Det finns inga måsten för vad en administratör gör, men det är önskvärt att man har varit med ett tag, är aktiv i redigeringar och diskussioner, och har satt sig in litet i hur olika delar av wikipedia fungerar. Som administratör får du litet fler verktyg, vilket bland annat syns som fler flikar överst på sidorna. Du kan bland annat ta bort sidor helt (fast de förblir åtkomliga för andra administratörer), och blockera (banna) brukare som bara oseriöst förstör artiklar. (Lyckligtvis finns det inte så många sådana på fo-wp.)

:Titta gärna på "önskelistorna" under Brúkarakjak:Quackor#Umboðsstjóri_og_embætismaður eller Wikipedia:Undirhúsið#Umboðsstjóri_og_embætismaður!

Hej igen!
Du har upprättat :Bólkur:Føroyskir fótbóltsvenjarar, samt :Bólkur:Føroyskir svimjivenjarir... Det är inte alltid så lätt för oss stackars utlänningar att hitta rätt ändelser, när även ni ibland verkar litet osäkra!
Órðabókagrunnurin ger bara flertalsformen venjarar, så jag antar att det är den bästa formen, om man vill vara konsekvent? Jag har använt den i övrigt! M. v. h., Jörgen B 17. okt 2011 kl. 21:27 (UTC)

Haha, ja, pínligt, at eg ikki havi fingið endingarnar rættar har. Eg ivaðist um tað í hvørfall (nominativ) skuldi enda við ir ella ar. Men endingin ar sær út til at vera tann rætta. Eg eri suðuroyingur, og her úttala vit endingarnar annarleiðis, eg plagi tó at duga væl at benda, men í seinastuni havi eg veruliga verið í iva í hvørt t.d. venjari í fleirtal skal enda við ir ella ar. Eg veit ikki, hvat ið tað er ið eg blandi við, møguliga blandi eg við bestemta formin, sí t.d. bendinina fyri dómari her: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/d%C3%B3mari har sær man at í "Definite plural" eitur tað í nominativ "Dómararnir" og í akkusativ (hvønnfall) Dómararnar. Tað sama er galdandi í singular (eintal) í bæði indefenit og definit, har tað eitur dómari, dómara og dómarin, dómaran. Tað man vera hatta er knappliga eri farin at blanda við. Í Suðuroy úttala vit tað "Dómaron" og í fleirtal "Dómararnor" ella uppaftur styttri "Dómarnor". Nei, tað kann ikki vera lætt fyri tykkum útlendingar, tá vit føroyingar onkuntíð ikki finna útav at benda okkara egna mál rætt :) Takk fyri rættingina.

Hi. I created some time ago the article in Faroese about Australian singer Kylie Minogue. It's a stub and lacks information, I'd like to improve it but I don't speak Faroese and I didn't find on the net a site where I can translate a text from English to Faroese. It would be great to have your contribution on that article. I have already typed a small text in English that only needs to be translated. Best regards. Mustashy 16. nov 2011 kl. 18:24 (UTC)

Hej. Thanks for your contribution on the article about Kylie Minogue in Faroese. It will only need a few adjustments. By the way, here's the text in English I wanted to translate in Faroese and I'd like to add on the article :
“After beginning her career as an actress on Australian television, she later started her career as a singer in 1987. Her first album "Kylie" (1988) and the single "I Should Be So Lucky" both reached first place in the United Kingdom.
Minogue then released her album "Kylie Minogue" (1994). The first single "Confide in Me" reached first place in Australia and second place in the United Kingdom, and was a success in several European countries in 1994.
Minogue later had a huge success in 2000 with the single "Spinning Around" and the album "Light Years". The song "Can't Get You Out of My Head" reached first place in over 40 countries, and the album "Fever" (2001) was also a success in many countries, including the United States.
Kylie Minogue has sold to date over 68 million albums and 55 million singles worldwide.”
I hope that will be fine. Mustashy 17. nov 2011 kl. 22:40 (UTC)

It is done :) EileenSanda 17. nov 2011 kl. 23:50 (UTC)

Hej Eileen!
Hur hårt drabbades Färöarna av den orkan, som norrmännen kallar Berit? Jag undrar speciellt hur det har gått med försöken till skogsplantering. Jag har ett minne av att en tidigare storm förstörde mycket av planteringen i Tórshavn.
Med vänlig hälsning, Jörgen B 28. nov 2011 kl. 18:58 (UTC)

Hej Jørgen
Jeg ved at orkanen gik hårdt ud over plantagen i Trongisvágur her i Suðuroy. Jeg har ikke hørt om skader i vores plantage her i Vágur. Der har været større fokus på materiella skader på huse, hvor hele overetagen og taget blev revet af. Jeg ved dog, at to store træer i min svigermors hava væltede, og hendes hus står lige i nærheden af Viðarlundin í Tórshavn, ved Dalagøta. Hvis du har en profil på Facebook, så kan du se Turid Vestergaard í Dali's billeder fra skaderne i Viðarlundin í Trongisvágur: Turid's billeder Jeg ved ikke, om andre som ikke er på Facebook, har mulighed for at se billederne, men prøv. Suðuroy blev hårdest ramt af orkanen, men skader var over hele landet. Nu fandt jeg en artikel på Portal.fo om viðarlundir på Færøerne, som fik skader under orkanen. Viðarlundin í Tórshavn (i Gundadalur) mistede ca. 100 træer. Viðarlundin í Niðaru Hoydølum mistede ca. 75 træer. De nævner også Viðarlundin på Debesartrøð og i Trongisvágur, men ikke hvor mange træer. Artikel på Portal.fo om Skader på plantager på Færøerne under orkanen Berit Umhvørvisstovan's hjemmeside us.fo har link til billeder af skader i Viðarlundin í Havn. Venlig hilsen EileenSanda 29. nov 2011 kl. 13:15 (UTC)

M. v. h., Jörgen B 28. nov 2011 kl. 21:53 (UTC)

Hej Jørgen. Hmmm, nei, eg haldi at "Samferðsla og flutningur" eisini er dekkandi fyri "Samferðsla". Eg hugsaði leingi um hvat eg skuldi nevna handa bólkin. Eg havi stovnað "Samferðsla og flutnignur", Quackor hevur stovnað hina í 2005. Kunnu vit kanska flyta innihaldið í "Samferðsla" til "Samferðsla og flutningur"? Har er bara ein síða og ein undirbólkur í "Samferðsla", so tað tekur ikki langa tíð. Eg vildi hava ein bólk har greinar sum eru um infrastrukturin onkursvegna, ferðafólkaflutningur, vegir og tunnlar, havnir, ferðamannaskip, men eisini flutningsfør sum flyta vørur og annað kunnu rúmast í. Eg hugdi at bólkum á øðrum málum, og so kom eg fram til "Samferðsla og flutningur", sum á donsku Wikipediuni eitur "Kategori:Transportinfrastruktur" og á ensku Wikipediuni "Category:Transport infrastructure". Jú, eg eri samd við tær í, at tað er ov nógv við báðum bólkunum. Eg haldi, at vit skulu flyta innihaldið í "Bólkur:Samferðsla" til "Bólkur:Samferðla og flutningur". Man tað ikki vera tað frægasta? Vinarliga EileenSanda 29. nov 2011 kl. 00:21 (UTC)

Hei Eileen! I just created two articles in Faroese about albums of Kylie Minogue (Fever and Aphrodite). They are both stubs and need more information. It would be great if you could expand them. There is one sentence to translate and to add to her main article (Kylie Minogue):
"Minogue later had a huge success in 2000 with the single "Spinning Around" and the album "Light Years". The song "Can't Get You Out of My Head" reached first place in over 40 countries, and the album "Fever" (2001) was also a success in many countries, including the United States."

Hi Eileen. There are four articles I created in Faroese that need to be expanded: Fever, Body Language, X, Aphrodite. Regards. Hypuxylun 20. jan 2012 kl. 01:58 (UTC)

Hi Eileen! Some admin could look into the category for speedy deletion. I think category Strikingarboð is the category for this because template Delete causes this categorization. It seems no admin have looked into this category for months. Greetings Stefan Knauf 21. feb 2012 kl. 20:35 (UTC)

Hi Stefan. I have deleted all the pages, images and categories, which were in the category for speedy deletion. I have deleted some pages there not so long ago, but I wasn't sure about some of the pages, but I guess it was ok to delete them, most of them were empty and replaced by others. Best regards EileenSanda 21. feb 2012 kl. 22:39 (UTC)

:Hi Eileen! Thanks! I hadn't look at all things which were in this category. As I cannot read Faeroese, I cannot really check anyway. I can only admit my responsibility for the six deletions where I put the nomination onto the page, this deletions are certainly correct. Greetings Stefan Knauf 22. feb 2012 kl. 00:38 (UTC)

::Ok, and anyway, if I have deleted anything which shouldn't have been, it isn't too late for another admin to revert it, as far as I know. But I think it was ok to delete everything which had the tag "strika", and it had been there for quite a while anyway. Heilsan EileenSanda 22. feb 2012 kl. 13:20 (UTC)

Hej Eileen!
Kan du hålla ett öga på vad som händer med grenen Monako? Det verkar som om två brukare har olika åsikter om vilken version av en bild som skall ligga där, och ägnar sig åt ett långsamt "redigeringskrig". Det verkar inte så farligt just nu, men om det blir värre, så behövs kanske ett ingripande av en administratör.
Med vänlig hälsning, Jörgen B (talk) 14. mar 2012 kl. 17:07 (UTC)

Hej Jørgen, ja, jeg har lagt mærke til det, men jeg ved ikke hvem der har ret, ved du? Den ene påstår, at den andens billede er brud på copyright, men billedet har ligget på Wikimedia i flere år og er på flere artikler, det burde vel være der, at "krigen" opstod og ikke her?

Hi Eileen!
I've just translated the article Effo to :de:Effo, but there is still one question: Can you tell me what "Trappubrøðurnir" are? Literally translated it seems to mean "Treppenbrüder" ("stair brothers") which is used to describe members of a "Brøðrasamkoman" in German language.
Is this right? Was Effo founded by Free Church members?
Thank you very much in advance and "farvæl" to the lovely Faroes! --JøMa (talk) 1. apr 2012 kl. 21:02 (UTC)

Hi JøMa, I actually didn't know, what the name "Trappubrøðurnir" means, I have often heard about them, but I newer knew what the name meant, or I had forgotten. But I have asked the question on Facebook, and I got this answer: "Trappubrøðurnir vóru av Trapputrøðni í Havn. Tað er har sum SMS er í dag..., men hvar hendan trappan hevur verið veit eg ikki, hevur neyvan nakað við aðrar brøður at gera. Stendur uttan iva okkurt um teir í havnasøguni."<br

In English: "Trappubrøðurnir came from Trapputøðin in Tórshan. It is where the shopping mall SMS is today..., but I don't know where this stair is, and I don't think that it has got anything to do with some other brothers. No doubth that the book "Havnarsøga" (History of Tórshavn) write about them."If I hear something else, I will let you know :) Kind regards EileenSanda (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 10:03 (UTC)

: One more answer from one of my Facebook friends: "Tað vóru brøðurnir Dánjal, Petur og Niclas Haraldsen, av Trappuni í Havn, ið keyptu fyrstu sluppina til Føroya, "Fox", í 1872". In English: The brothers Dánjal, Petur and Niclas Haraldsen from Av Trappuni (From the Stairs) in Tórshavn, bought the first Faroese smack to the Faroes, which was called Fox, in 1872.

::Hi Eileen, thank you very much for your research – how exciting that even Faroese don't know the answer by heart! :o)

::Yes, I found that "Fox" story on the internet, too. So we know those brothers did some trading, bought oil an ships. Obviously, "Trappubrøðurnir" meant something professional like the "Hanse" (but slighlty smaller). ;o)

::Am I right that "trøðin" means something like "path" "place"?

::Best wishes from Leipzig/Germany --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 11:02 (UTC)

:::Not path, but a piece of land. If you understand some Faroese, you can read about it here: Trøð. It is a piece of land from the "Kongsjørð" (there are two kinds of land in the Faroes, kongsjørð and óðalsjørð). You can not own kongsjørð. Anyway, these "trøð" (traðir in plural) were sold to people, so they could build a house there and have sheep, hen, cows etc. It is mainly around larger villages/towns, that you can find these traðir. I don't know the English word for this, but it is a piece of land near villages. I think they got it as some kinf of loan to start with, and after a while, they could buy it, but I am not sure how and for how much money. Some history books must write about it, I am sure. Now they are mainly used for people who wish to hava a few sheep as a hobby. "Trøðin" has an ending "in", it is the same as "the" in English, "der, die, das" in German. In Faroese we have a definet ending in stead, just like Danish and other Nordic languages. Regards EileenSanda (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 12:00 (UTC)
I have a longer answer for you. Is there some way I could e-mail it to you, or should I just copy it in here?

Yes, feel free to use the e-mail function to contact me – I am courious to get to know the Brothers' background! :o) --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 13:24 (UTC)

:Great, thank you very much! --JøMa (talk) 2. apr 2012 kl. 14:12 (UTC)

Hi Eileen!
Here is the text in English to translate in Faroese and to add at the articles for each album of Kylie Minogue:

The final single "Come into My World" reached number four in Australia and number eight in the UK. The album has sold over 8 million copies worldwide, making Minogue's best-selling album to date."
Body Language : "The album was recorded during the summer of 2003 in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Spain. Minogue also worked for the album with previous collaborators. The album reached number two in Australia and number six in the UK. The album's first single "Slow" reached number one in the UK and Australia. The second single "Red Blooded Woman" reached number four in Australia and number five in the UK. The third single "Chocolate" reached number six in the UK and number fourteen in Australia."

The song reached number one in Australia and number four in the UK. "Wow" was released as the second single in the UK and Australia and the third in the rest of the world. It reached number eleven in Australia and number five in the UK. "In My Arms" was released as the second global single and the third in the UK and Australia. "All I See" was released as the first single in USA and the second single in Canada. "The One" was released as a single in the UK, Europe and Australia."
Aphrodite : "The album reached number one in the UK, her fifth album to reach number one in the country. It reached number two in Australia and number three in Germany. The album's first single "All the Lovers" reached number three in the UK and number thirteen in Australia. The second single "Get Outta My Way" was released in September 2010 and reached number twelve in the UK. The third single "Better then Today" was not very successful on the charts and reached only number 32 in the UK. However, it reached number one in the US on Billboard (Hot Dance Club Songs). "Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)" was released as the album's fourth and final single."
Is would be great to complete these articles. Thank you. Hypuxylun 27. apr 2012, kl. 00:37 (UTC)

You article about the Logting links that book about the history of the parliament. Can you find out if there had been election between 1852 and 1906? I need that information for a list of the elctions of that parliament.--Antemister (talk) 18. mai 2012 kl. 21:36 (UTC)

Hi, I need a Faroese speaker to help with sorting out the copyright status of :File:Coat-of-arms of the Faroe Islands.png, :File:Mítt alfagra land.jpg, :File:Mítt alfagra land (2).jpg, and couldn't find one on Commons. I don't even know if Faroes has its own copyright law or uses Danish copyright law - we have no documentation on this on Commons. If you can help, or suggest someone who can, I'd be grateful. I obviously don't come here often(!), so please reply on my Commons user talk page. Thanks. Rd232 (talk) 3. des 2012 kl. 14:04 (UTC)

Hej Eileen!
Jag känner till Tostarpadius från svenska Wikipedia, och han är en seriös användare. Jag antar att han försökte dela upp interwiki-länkarna mellan artiklar om just Julevangeliet i Lukas och mellan artiklar som mer generellt handlar om Jesu födesel. Se till dömes artiklarna på danska om :da:Juleevangeliet och :da:Jesu fødsel. Han har gjort liknande rättningar på andra Wikipedior. /Diupwijk 12. des 2012 kl. 17:27 (UTC)

Hi Eileen, in relation to the above Polandball-aviation thing, I am waiting on permission from a few photographers to be able to upload more Faroe-related aviation photos, but in the meantime, I thought I would upload Flickr sets/streams with a Faroe's theme. Would this be suitable for you, in case the aviation photos don't eventuate? If there are any Faroe topical photos we need on Commons, let me know, and if we can find them on Flickr, I can upload entire streams if required. Russavia (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 18:33 (UTC)

LOL, I just did a search for suitable photos on Flickr, and the first two results - one which I am already uploading -- and this stream (yours!?) If you ever want to make the entire stream available under CC-BY-SA, let me know, and I can upload the entire stream to Commons ;) Russavia (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 18:38 (UTC)

:That is my photostream on Flickr, yes :) Don't worry about the photos which you promised to upload here, I actually thought that they were your own photos. Anyway, I don't write on Wikipedia in order to get something in stead, I write on Wikipedia because I like it. No, I don't think that I want my entire photostream on Flickr uploaded to commons, I have already uploaded quite many photos to commons :) Best regards EileenSanda (talk) 28. des 2012 kl. 21:23 (UTC)

Hi! Could you please translate this into Faroese? It is to give information in Ido Wikipedia.
Velkommen til Ido Wikipedia. Ido blev først kendt som en reformeret esperanto og var lavet i 1907 efter syv års arbejde af en kommité af professorer og linguister. Du har måske bemærket at Ido ligner Esperanto lidt, men har forskelligheder som f.eks. en komplet mangel af "diacritical marks" (engelsk), brugen af bokstavet "q", og mange af ordene i sig selv.
Hvis du studerer Ido og gerne vil skrive på vores Wikipedia, så slå dig løs! Der er folk her som vil rette dine værk, hvis du skulle lave en fejl. Brug  tag når du tror din artikel kunne bruge grammatisk revision. Hovedsiden for Ido-sproget er her, Ido udgivelser er her, og den danske Wikipedia artikel om Ido er her.
En komplet liste af sider på Internettet på Ido er her. Sidst men ikke mindst er grundene for at lære Ido snarere end det kendte Esperanto samlet i denne artikel.
Thanks for your help. Chabi1

Hi Eileen! The Faroese Wikipedia is one of the very few that lacks an article about same-sex marriages, can you please create an article on that in Faroese? Bazzy11 29. apríl 2013

Jeg ser du la til Kategori:USA på artikkelen om California Lutheran University. Bør vi ikke heller opprette en Kategori:Universiteter i USA ("Bólkur:Háskúlar í USA" f.eks.)? Ser det ikke er noen Kategori:USA på andre universiteter hverken på færøysk Wikipedia (se f.eks. Harvard University) eller andre Wikipediaer. Setter forresten veldig pris på om du vil hjelpe meg å utvide artikkelen:)  Også en annen ting - håper ikke det gjorde noe at jeg fjernet et avsnitt du skrev på artikkelen om likekjønnet ekteskap ("Gongdin í Danmark og Føroyum viðvíkjandi samkyndum"), synes det ble litt for generelt siden artikkelen er om ekteskap, dessuten finnes det jo alt på artikkelen om Danmark.

Hej Eileen!
Det var rätt av dig att flytta med sidhistoriken i fallet Quebec. Jag vet inte om du såg att också Montreal flyttades till Montréal på samma sätt?
Jag tycker visserligen att det är konstigt att en utomstående kommer in hit och flyttar på artiklar utan att lämna någon kommentar, men om inte du heller vet vad som är rätt får det väl stå kvar?
Vänligen //Diupwijk 17. mai 2013 kl. 05:04 (UTC)

Hey Djupwijk. Eg bleiv fyrst so glað, tá eg sá, at onkur nýggjur hevði upprættað tvær nýggjar greinar, men so bleiv eg skuffað, tá eg so legði til merkis, at viðkomandi bara hevði kopierað innihaldið av einari síðu sum langt síðan var upprættað og síðan víðaristillaði tað gomlu síðuna til tað nýggju, harvið missir man jú alla síðusøguna, og tað kann ikki vera rætt. Ja, sera løgin atburður. Eg skal flyta Montréal aftur til ta gomlu. Eg veit ikki hvat er rættast á føroyskum, eg havi ikki nakað føroyskt Atlas ella orðabók, veitst tú um nakra á internetinum? Eg hugdi at hvussu onnur mál stava t.d. Montréal, á norskum var tað við é á bokmål og við e á nýnorskum, og so var tað hipp sum happ, hvat ið tey ymisku málini brúktu. Summi mál brúktu Kebek, sum møguliga eigur at vera føroyski stavimátin, møguliga við tveimum kk í endanum. Men so er tað líka tað at ke úttalast che ella tje á føroyskum... so eg lat tað bara vera við tí upprunaliga kanadiska stavimátanum, sum hasin nýggi persónurin í gjár flutti innihaldið til. Eg skal rætta tað aftur, so síðusøgan í tað minsta fylgir við framyvir. Vinarliga EileenSanda (talk) 17. mai 2013 kl. 05:22 (UTC)

:En färöisk källa jag känner till på internet är något som kallas Alfrøðin på snar.fo. Deras artiklar om världens länder är kopierade/baserade på boken Heimsins lond. I artikeln om Kanada skriver man provinsen Quebecs namn utan ´.

:Heimsins lond finns även på Google books: , tillika en annan lärobok: Heimur okkara. Jag vet icke om detta är bra källor. Såvitt jag vet är ett nytt färöiskt skolatlas på gång just nu. I detta nya atlaset kommer man ändra några stavningar.

:Också på svenska är det oklart om man skall skriva med eller utan ´. Jag ser att den svenska artikeln heter Québec, men många atlaser och uppslagsverk skriver "Quebec". Jag är rädd för att jag inte kan giva dig ett bättre svar! /Diupwijk 18. mai 2013 kl. 10:12 (UTC)

Dear Eileen, can you please translate these political-orientated articles from Danish into Faroese: Venstrefløjen and Højrefløjen? Bazzy11 (talk) 17. jun 2013 kl. 19:53 (UTC)

Ok, I will translate a part of the article, but not right now. The Faroese word for "Venstreorienteret" is "Vinstrahallur" or "Vinstrasinnaður" (in maskulinum, that is, if the next word is a maskulin word, like "flokkur"/party or politikkur/politics). The Faroese word for "Højreorienteret" is "Høgrahallur" or "Høgrasinnaður" (the -ur ending is only used if there comes a maskulin word after and in nominativ).

Dear EileenSanda, I would be grateful, if you could take a look at the VisualEditor announcement and especially into the interface translations. I feel it would be very important to have the translations properly heandled by someone who actually speaks the language and is engaged in improving this project. Thank you and best regards, --JEissfeldt (WMF) (talk) 15. nov 2013 kl. 19:17 (UTC)

Dear JEissfeldt, I will have a look and translate as much as I can of the interface for the VisualEditor into Faroese, I have been searching for it on translatewiki but couldn't find it. I am looking forward for having the VisualEditor here on the Faroese Wikipedia, hopefully it will encourage more editors to be active here. Best regards EileenSanda (talk) 15. nov 2013 kl. 21:57 (UTC)

:Thank you, EileenSanda, for both your quick reply and help. To the best of my knowledge, all relevant interface messages should be here. I share your hope both for Faroese and more broadly for smaller communities in general, too. From the Spanish Wikipedia, the biggest community currently using VisualEditor as default, we know that it has the potential to improve participation generally. To that extend, the most important translation beyond the interface itself is perhaps the userguide. Best regards and a happy weekend from Middle Europe :), --JEissfeldt (WMF) (talk) 15. nov 2013 kl. 22:39 (UTC)

::Hello again :) I found the interface for the VisualEditor on Translatewiki, and found out that I (or someone else) had already translated more than half of it, but I completed the translation, so now it is 100%. I have already translated the user guide, but I can see now, that a part of is outdated, I will update it. Sounds good that the VisualEditor is a success on the Spanish Wikipedia, you too have a happy weekend :) EileenSanda (talk) 15. nov 2013 kl. 22:48 (UTC)

Dear Ms. Sandá, can you please help create an article about Lutheranism in Faroese? I'm also extremely thankful if you again could translate some parts of these articles into Faroese: Venstrefløjen and Højrefløjen. Thank you very much for all your great work here! & Happy Holidays!!  Bazzy11 (talk) 23. des 2013 kl. 02:07 (UTC)

I have just written Vinstrahallur politikkur (Venstreorienteret politik). I will write the other two sometime later. Happy Holidays to you too :) EileenSanda (talk) 23. des 2013 kl. 11:46 (UTC)

MediaWiki-kjak:Common.js

Hello, I propose to enable the tool created by Magnus Manske (creator of MediaWiki) to provide results from other languages and Commons (via Wikidata) when a page doesn't exist here: links are added to Special:Search and noarticletext. This helps to encourage translation and to make readers use your wiki more, because they can be sure to find something even if it's not local (rather than searching directly on the biggest wiki). The Italian and Polish Wikipedias, among others already enabled it by default.
Examples:   . More information: Magnus blog.
How to: just add the following line at the end of Common.js.
// Results from Wikidata
// [[File:Wdsearch_script_screenshot.png]]
if ( mw.config.get( 'wgCanonicalSpecialPageName' ) === 'Search' ||  ( mw.config.get( 'wgArticleId' ) === 0 && mw.config.get( 'wgCanonicalSpecialPageName' ) === false ) ) {
	importScriptURI("//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Wdsearch.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript");
}

Give search results even when page doesn't exist

Hi! I want to let you know that in near future badges will be deployed on Wikidata and the Wikipedias. They help us with displaying the good and featured article icons next to the sitelinks and will replace the javascript hack which is used at the moment together with the Link GA and Link FA templates. To avoid an overlap where the current system and the new feature conflict, I will add a minor fix to your Common.js which adds the class names to the interwiki links. This is part of my task as a global edit interface editor for the Wikidata team. Thanks, Bene* (talk) 18. aug 2014 kl. 20:25 (UTC)

Announced JavaScript change for badges implementation


Brúkarakjak:Rei Momo

You can of course leave me a message here, but I am not that often around, so the swiftest way  to contact me is on my Italian Wikipedia talk page

Hi, yes, I can do that. I wish you too a Happy New Year :) Best wishes EileenSanda (talk) 4. jan 2014 kl. 15:52 (UTC)

Ok :) Happy New Year to you too! EileenSanda (talk) 24. jan 2014 kl. 18:00 (UTC)

You are welcome :) EileenSanda (talk) 25. jan 2014 kl. 01:53 (UTC)

You are welcome, you too hava a nice Sunday :) EileenSanda (talk) 8. feb 2014 kl. 17:15 (UTC)

Hi Rei Momo, I am just fine, thanks, but the weather is bad and has been bad most of the time all winther, rainy and windy, but what can we do about it. I have translated the English text in your article about Marianna Madia. EileenSanda (talk) 6. mar 2014 kl. 23:45 (UTC)

Hi Rei Momo, it's done. Thanks I am fine, we had nice weather here yesterday, but today we have rain again, we had too much rain last winther, nearly every day, so I am looking forward for the summer. EileenSanda (talk) 18. apr 2014 kl. 14:42 (UTC)

You are welcome, and Happy New Year to you also. We got a lot of snow here yesterday, but nor in my island Suðuroy, here it is one or two degree warmer than in the northern islands of the Faroes, and tat was enough to make a lot of problems in the northern and western part of the islands with many people getting stuck in traffic. Today some people rented a private boat in order to get from Vestmanna to Tórshavn, after being stuck there for almost two days. It is rare that we get so much snow. The radio said that some people had to sleep in their cars inside the subseatunnel between Streymoy and Vágar. EileenSanda (talk) 16. jan 2015 kl. 23:21 (UTC)

Hello, the web-based Faroese dictionaries of Sprotin are open and free of charge for everyone now, you can find them here if you are interested. There is one from Faroese to Italian, but not from Italian to Faroese, there are also dictionaries from Faroese to English and from English to Faroese. EileenSanda (talk) 17. jan 2015 kl. 15:27 (UTC)

Faroese dictionaries free of charge for everyone

It is done, sounds interesting, I have never heard of these food-products. Have a nice and safe journey to France. Our Faroese airway-company, Atlantic Airways, had a direct line to Milano last year and the year before, but now they have stopped unfortunately, I would like to visit the area of Northern Italy some day.

You are welcome :) EileenSanda (talk) 2. feb 2015 kl. 21:29 (UTC)

You are welcome :) EileenSanda (kjak) 7. mai 2015 kl. 14:35 (UTC)

Just 3 minutes for [[Benedikta Boccoli]]

Hello, I am sorry to hear about your father! I have translated the English words. Angolskir is correct for plural. I changed "prestar", so now it says: "Bólkur:Angolskir katólskir biskupar". Best regards --EileenSanda (kjak) 9. sep 2015 kl. 14:56 (UTC)

Haha, cute photo :) Thanks a lot, I will also wish you a Mery Christmas and a Happy New Year, best wishes for 2016. --EileenSanda (kjak) 25. des 2015 kl. 09:30 (UTC)

You are welcome :) You too have a nice day. --EileenSanda (kjak) 1. jun 2016 kl. 13:20 (UTC)

Just a picture in [[Maurizio Malvestiti]]

Hello dear Rei Momo. I am glad to hear that you are okay, it must have been a shock for you to feel the earthquake. I learned about it in the news, terrible situation. I'm also sad for the victims. You too have a nice weekend. You are welcome to write about biskupur Borromeo. Best wishes --EileenSanda (kjak) 9. sep 2016 kl. 21:52 (UTC)

Hello. I am just fine :) We have a lot of wind here. I saw the mistake and I have deleted the redirect page. And I have also translated the English words. Best regards --EileenSanda (kjak) 16. mar 2017 kl. 10:55 (UTC)

Hello. Yes, but what means "Kerk"? --EileenSanda (kjak) 18. mai 2017 kl. 23:24 (UTC)

No, like you wrote in the article, it is "Kirkja". I have moved the article. Best regards --EileenSanda (kjak) 19. mai 2017 kl. 07:03 (UTC)

Hello, it is also cold here, we have a little bit of snow. I have translated the two lines. Best regards --EileenSanda (kjak) 20. nov 2017 kl. 12:16 (UTC)

Hello :) No, nothing happened to me, I have just been very busy and not been active here for a while. I have translated those two lines into Faroese now. Best regards --EileenSanda (kjak) 23. nov 2023 kl. 15:04 (UTC)
