A way to type Ossetic language

Hi, I know you're an Ossetian native speaker. I need a way to find out how to type Ossetian alphabet. Where can I download a input-method?--俠刀行 Talk 中国大使馆 (Минæварад Китай) 16:34, 22 июлы 2012 (UTC)

Hi! Thank you for developing relations between our Wikipedias.

You have two options:

• The first option is to install special program for Windows XP/Vista/7. Here is the download page. (Google translator)
• The second is to use this script in your JavaScript page. That script enables virtual keyboard for edit form only, but there should be no problem in applying it to search form. This option is good if you have non Windows OS or if you don't need Ossetian keyboard out of Ossetian Wikipedia. If you need in applying of that to the search form then just let me know.

I can also help you with Ossetian keyboard on Linux, but that requires quite more time. Let me know if you need it for Linux.--Bouron (ныхас) 17:10, 22 июлы 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your enthusiastic help, my computer is windows XP system. So Linux is not my type. I have downloaded from the website. I can't understand by the Russian document.--俠刀行 Talk 中国大使馆 (Минæварад Китай) 17:41, 22 июлы 2012 (UTC)

Collaboration/translation request

Hi Bouron, I was hoping you might be able to help me. I am trying to find an editor who can help to translate User:Russavia/Polandball (or ru:Polandball) into Ossetian. The article now exists in 56 languages, and it would be great to see it in Ossetian as well.

To encourage collaboration on this, I have uploaded (and will continue to upload in the future) 50 Russian (included Ossetian) aviation photos to Commons, which I hope that editors on Ossetian Wikipedia can use to create and/or expand articles in the future.

Any assistance you can give would be most appreciated. Feel free to contact me on my Ossetian Wikipedia talk page, or email me anytime. Cheers, Russavia (ныхас) 07:41, 27 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

My personal point here is that Pollandball is not encyclopedic enough. But Ossetian Wikipedia traditionally has weak restrictions for articles, what I don't like. So, I can't promise you to translate the whole article, but I'll write a brief description. I hope this will help you.

BTW. Any free aviation photo, connected to Ossetia, would be great for illustrating transport or military of North or South Ossetia. If you have one, please notify me.--Bouron (ныхас) 14:33, 27 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Ahhh, the old inclusionist-deletionist debate? It's always an interesting topic for Wikipedia, not matter what language project we are on it would appear :)

Any assistance you can give would be great, but it's not expected. Just so you know, the Polish article was translated by several editors, and it appears to have been patrolled by a member of the Polish Arbcom, so there is no need to worry about verifiability, etc, etc. That article is a direct translation of the article in my userspace as seen here on Ossetian Wikipedia.

In relation to Ossetian photos, the only direct Ossetian photos I so far have under a free licence are at Архайæг:Russavia#Alania_Airlines (Alania now being a defunct airline). Military photos from North or South Ossetia are going to be somewhat difficult to come by, due to the obvious security situation. There are a couple of military photos in Commons:Category:Dmitry_Medvedev_in_South_Ossetia,_July_2009 that I uploaded a few years ago. (I also wrote en:Russia–South Ossetia relations and had it featured on front page of enwiki on the 1st anniversary of the beginning of the war). But having said that, after the 2008 war, I got permission from Kremlin to use their photos (as per Commons:Template:Kremlin.ru), so I will be writing to mil.ru, etc in the New Year (after Orthodox Xmas, etc) and try to get permission to use their photos/videos, etc. It is these resources which would be best for "Ossetian" related military photos, etc.

Anyway, thanks in advance you can give with the article translation, and if you need anything in future, please do contact me. Cheers, Russavia (ныхас) 16:34, 27 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

I have created Полландбол with very brief description. --Bouron (ныхас) 15:47, 28 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Hi mate, thanks for that. I remembered that we do have access to photos from South Ossetia, and I see that you have added some to Commons yourself. If you refer to http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Cominf all photos from the galleries at http://cominf.org/photo can now be uploaded to Commons. This is an invaluable resource for us, wouldn't you agree? Perhaps we could put a message on os.wiki village pump to advise editors here on the project that this photographic resource is available to us? Cheers, Russavia (ныхас) 18:41, 28 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Yes, I am aware of cominf.org photos. It's really invaluable for Ossetia related topics. I'll notify them in village pump soon, but I think most of active users here already know about it. Anyway it would be good for newcomers.

Thank you for collaboration. --Bouron (ныхас) 20:56, 28 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Bouron, I have a little news for you. On cominf, they have some 270 galleries, with around 10 photos per page. Over the coming weeks, I have organised with one of our friendly bot operators on Commons to upload ALL of the images which we are allowed to upload, so before too long, there will be probably at least an additional 2,500 South Ossetian photos which we will be able to use on our projects. Once this done, there will be a lot of work needed to fix/add descriptions to images, fix/add categories to the images, etc, and it is at this point that assistance on Commons from Ossetian project editors would be invaluable. I'll keep you informed about this if you like, so we can perhaps work as a mass-team to do this? Cheers, Russavia (ныхас) 21:19, 28 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

We should be careful here. I think that OTRS permission from cominf.org covers only those photos, author of whom is cominf.org But a lot of works there have author other than cominf.org For example such ([1], [2]) galleries. Also almost all the photos have watermark in right-bottom. What do you think about this?--Bouron (ныхас) 18:46, 29 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Indeed, artworks and the like will not be uploaded, as they aren't the copyright holder. The watermark in the right bottom isn't a major issue. We simply add Commons:Template:Watermark to the image, and if they can be removed editors will remove them. All will work out; the major input we will need from Ossetian editors is categorising, descriptions, etc, once all is uploaded. Russavia (ныхас) 20:34, 29 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

OK. I think it will be very usefull. I will take care of categories and descriptions. Notify me when everything will be uploaded. Thanks again! --Bouron (ныхас) 20:57, 29 ноябры 2012 (UTC)

Beslan massacre

Thank you for starting the article on that subject in Ossete. I understand it was very traumatic for the Ossetian community and it is important to have an article on this subject in the Ossete language. WhisperToMe (ныхас) 03:22, 26 декабры 2012 (UTC)

I think it is among must-have featured articles in this wiki. When more users are active here, we will sure expand it.--Bouron (ныхас) 10:31, 26 декабры 2012 (UTC)
