Fall Grün
Hi Realismadder,

for your "Fall Grün" timeline, you should give all the related pages a title that ends in " (Fall Grün)". You can rename existing pages with the "move" button. Categorizing them would also help.--Max Sinister 22:42, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you. I was already working on renaming all the Fall Grün pages to include "(Fall Grün)". -- Realismadder 07:42, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Syldavian-Bordurian War
Although it would make for an interesting timeline, use of trademarks and copyrighted material is not allowed on this wiki--Marcpasquin 12:20, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * What about the alternative history Red Napoleon (an alternative history based on Red Alert)? Wouldn't much of that be copyright material as well? -Realismadder 15:43, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Its scheduled for removal, Dan gave rusty a little time to make a copy before its removed. --Marcpasquin 16:08, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * May I ask what is the problem with creating a story with only references to the old story? - Realismadder 16:21, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Its mostly the use of protected Trademarks, in this case "Borduria" and "Syldavia" as well as any fictional chracters and/or their distinctive likeness.--Marcpasquin 16:24, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Doesn't that limit the use of pretty much anything? I mean, with some decency the fact that the alternative histories with references to Red Alert (or here, the Adventures of Tintin) would inspire the readers to buy the game/buy the album, which in turn would give profit/promote the works to the author/publisher and EA Games (Red Alert). - Realismadder 16:28, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * You would think so but some companies (such as paramount and game workshop) have been pretty heavy handed when it come to protecting their trademarks. Both of these companies have been known to send "cease and desist" letters to websites that were simply fan creation. Its mostly to avoid having someone spend months on something and then have to remove their material because the Powers That Be decide they don't like it. --Marcpasquin 16:35, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I would say they behave like douches. But wouldn't the copyright eventually expire? Afterall, the album I based the history on is quite old (1938) while Red Alert 1 is from 1996.


 * At least I can continue working on the Fall Grün scenario. At least here no one has made a alternative history and all photos needed has unknown photographers and are therefore not copyrighted. - Realismadder 16:46, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I pretty much have to agree with you regarding some companies behaviours. As to the copyright, its different depending on the country but is generaly the life of the author plus 50-80 years. In your case, as long as you don't scan images from the albums or use text verbatim, the problem you would have would be with trademarks (the names) which are renewable ad infinitum.--Marcpasquin 17:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * In case I should obtain permission of the publisher to write an altwiki article on this (with records to confirm the credibility of the permission) would it then be possible to continue? Realismadder 17:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Thats a bloody good question. You would have to ask Nik (*our* Power that be)--Marcpasquin 17:30, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Flag of the Democratic Republic of Iran
I would think that the soviet regime would remove the religious writing on the flag.--Marcpasquin 16:37, 9 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I would think that as well. Thank you for noticing it. Will be corrected ASAP. -Realismadder 18:04, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * EDIT: New flag finished: [[Image:Flag of the Democratic Republic of Iran.png|right|250px]]

Deutschland Siegt
For your POD, i suggest two things just a thought
 * 1: Invasion of the Soviet union is posponed until may 1942
 * 2: malta is invaded, in order to safeguard Axis supply lines, and allow additional re-enforcements to come to Rommel (7th Panzer Division Perhaps)
 * All good ideas, will take this into account. This idea is still in the planning stage. I plan this alternative history's POD should be my Fall Grün scenario. That would also give Germans time to modernise its army, along with Hungary, Romania and the other allies. But I would still like Germany to invade Poland at the same time as in OTL (but with a much more motorised army, having learned from their mistakes the previous autumn/winter).

Proposal
I'd love to know your opinion on this. --Karsten vK (talk) 15:14, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Deutschland siegt

Hello, i created that AltHis, i feel is a good and not used idea, is open to your (and everybody) colaboration. it say '''"In 1921 promising German theoretical physicist Albert Einstein dies in his first visit to the USA. He never makes contact with Ernest Rutherford or Leó Szilárd and the Manhattan Project never born. A world without useful atomic energy or Nuclear Bomb, a world without the Person of the Century."  a ending WW2 W/o nagasaki and hiroshima, a cold war w/o nuclear develovmen or a hot war, a energy real and early problem w/o nuclear energy and reactors, a world were france or UK are simil power like Spain because none nation have atomic power, a world without Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD), Biological and Chemical weapons ae the new Wapons of Massive Destruction, enjoy us and add your ideas, we will have fun, dont worry This is an open timeline'''. And for start a question, can eistein or anybody win a Nobel prize postmorten after her die? and i think URSS maybe invade hard-fastly east europe if USA have not the scary Fat boy, git it to my or write directly in the timeline some detalle about that, i know u know. Aniway thank U and i seen your work (sorry for any error, my engrish is...:) --Fero 00:58, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

Cecil's society
could you help me in Cecil's Society, especially the Global War section (i.e table, belligerents and their flags etc.). thanks. Buk5 11:58, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Tank you for your help on Cecil's Society. Maybe we could co-operate on the idea and you could get the tables for countries etc, while i give the text and all that. Buk5 18:43, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Sure, no problem. But I should remind you (and everybody else) that I am currently preoccupied with the current war between Georgia and Russia over South Ossetia, but I will do it when I have breaks from that. - Realismadder 19:04, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Special:Specialpages Special:Uncategorizedimages

everytime, you upload a image, you (please) must write (and others categories  maybe if you wan) in the descrition, we have a lot of fall grun images without category, and they are hard to find or used. do click here and see a good collection of ordem images --Fero 04:48, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Doomsday Talk
hello, i think Talk:1983: Doomsday is a good place to talk about, hawaii, the maps, ovservations, ideas, nuclear power and evething, i dont like surf all althiswiki to do that, i just a opinnion, but there is where i talk. other point, U was organized your images, congratulation and thank you --Fero 01:15, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Dansk/Norsk Pages
Are you the one writing them all from an IP address instead of logging in? What I was trying to say was that if we don't have the (ALTHISTORY NAME) tacked on the end of pages, it's very easy to get confused and not know which Althist anything belongs to. I wrote in Swedish because it seemed that whomever's been writing them (you or someone else) doesn't know about or care to follow the naming conventions on this wiki. Louisiannan 17:33, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh no, that isn't me at all (different IP adresses for one thing), so it must be someone else. - Realismadder 17:47, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay...I wasn't sure, when you responded like that on the Haeren page. My goal is just to make sure that everyone keeps everything organized well.  Tak så mycket! Louisiannan
