Whereof one has nothing to say, thereof one must stay silent.

I'm from the Czech Republic and work as a software developer. I am trying to improve the coverage of Czech cities and villages. See User:Pavel Vozenilek/Locations for progress (quick info: very slow).

I also spend my spare time fighting with vandals and general Wiki maintenance.

During the time I have been here I have seen an increase by a factor of 3-4 in the number of articles, visitors, contributors etc; yet the tools to maintain Wikipedia quality remain insufficient. IMHO, unless they improve, Wikipedia will grow worse and eventually it will acquire the reputation of being a garbage bin.

"high" quality version

• Template:Infobox settlement (extensive help Template Talk:Infobox settlment on the template use)
• Template:Infobox Region noC (version when no coat of arms is available)

Whither hence?

"Whereof one has nothing to say, thereof one must stay silent." You might consider altering one or more -hereofs', for example, "Whereof one has nothing to say one must stay silent." (Depending whether your're seeking a translation or quoting one.) Unfree (talk) 00:52, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

now come on! The 'whereof/thereof' combo, apart from its pleasing assonance, is a perfectly acceptable rendition of Wittgenstein's 'wovon/davon'.--Smerus (talk) 08:21, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
