Benotzer Diskussioun:Bastin

Hi Bastin,

and thank you for your kind comments on your user page. Let me return the compliments by saying that it is impressive to see what you do "over there" to foster the presence of luxemburgensia on the English language Wiki. Don't hesitate to write questions, if any, in English - more Luxembourgers know how to write in that language than in their own :-/ . --Zinneke 14:54, 25 Juli 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your praise; certainly, I don't take it lightly that a Luxembourger pays credit to me for my work on his country. Also, thank you for welcoming me to pose questions in English. Although I am aware that many Luxembourgers are perfectly fluent in the language of Shakespeare (as well as the languages of Voltaire, Goethe, and... Juncker), I felt as though such an intrusion may be unwelcome; at some other language wikis (naming no names, *cough*FRENCH*cough*), it's harder for non-native speakers to get a word in. Knowing now that your lot aren't so defensive, I'll advertise the WikiProject on the Haaptsäit talk page. Bastin 00:02, 26 Juli 2006 (UTC)
