[edit] Help?

Hi, I see that you are an experienced wikipedian: and I jujst need to ask a couple questions:

1. How do you change the name of an article?

2. How do you create a 'userbox'?

Thank you, --Alegoo92 16:26, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

I have no idea where to put this, but I got the PB 100 picture from google. I just checked again and it is not there...um?

[edit] Excel Saga a FA

Thanks again for all your help before and during the FAC: It's all greatly appreciated! As for what's next, I do hope to revamp NGE (there's a surfeit of secondary material in comparison to Excel Saga), but I want to finish up List of Excel Saga media and get that featured, too.--Monocrat 00:04, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Current mac project collaboration

Hey there. Would you like to help out at Apple II series, the latest WP:MAC collaboration? A models timeline would you good... — Wackymacs 11:21, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Apple Network Server.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Apple Network Server.gif. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --– Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 19:35, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Apple computer images

I noticed you posted a request for some images of Apple computers in Commons. I happen to have a Graphite G4, a blue G3 and access to a Quicksilver G4. I guess I'll have to remember to take pictures of them. However, I have a few questions:

1. What's wrong with the pictures that are there? They seemed okay to me.
2. What types of shots do you want? I will probably be taking these with film, then scanning them in. It would help for me to know what types of images you want (i.e. side, top, front, back, inside, etc)
3. I also have a Graphite Monitor. Do you want pics of that as well?

I also know of an old Quadra, but I'll have to take a look at it. It's sitting on a floor gathering dust in a room people rarely use, and I'm not sure of the condition.

If you could contact me on my user page here in en.wikipedia or you can send me an email at barista at gottahavacuppamocha dot com. If you do that, put wikipedia in the subject line to avoid my spam filters. I hope I can help out. --Barista | a/k/a マイケル | T/C 03:34, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Commons-Wiedergänger

Hallo grm_wnr,

ich habe eben gemerkt, daß ein auf der englischen Wikipedia bereits gelöschtes Bild unter gleichem Namen auf die Commons hochgeladen wurde: commons:Image:Mohenjodaro computergeneratedimage1.jpg

Kannst du dich darum kümmern? Ich habe keine Lust, selbst die übliche Prozedur einzuleiten, da der Fall klar sein dürfte. Das Bild scheint von einer etwas unwissenschaftlichen persönlichen Website geklaut zu sein, die ich gerade nicht wiederfinde, aber mir angesehen hatte, als ich die erste Löschung in die Wege geleitet habe. Besagte Hobbyseite gab als Quelle Austen Atkinsons Buch Lost Civilizations (S. 179–188) an, was ehrlicherweise auch z. B. im Artikel Mohenjo-daro angegeben ist. Es deutet aber nichts darauf hin, daß der Uploader mit dem urspünglichen Rechteinhaber identisch ist oder seine/ihre Erlaubnis hat, weshalb das Bild auch gelöscht wurde. Vielleicht sollten auch andere Uploads sowohl des damaligen (Jagged 85, glaube ich) als auch des diesmaligen Uploaders überprüft werden.

Ich schreibe dich als Commons-Admin an, weil du Einblick in den Deletion log hast und der Löscher von damals Pause macht. Vielen Dank! Wikipeditor 18:54, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Harappa.gif ist noch so ein Fall. Quelle im Artikel mit http://www.harappa.com/3D/7.html korrekt angegeben, aber nirgends eine Erlaubnis ("by Chris Sloan, courtesy of JM Kenoyer" steht so bereits auf der Website und bezieht sich wohl kaum auf Wiki-Nutzung).

[edit] Serial Experiments Lain

Hi Grm wnr (is that Grammy Winner?)!!

I am going through the process of having Serial Experiments Lain featured (Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Serial Experiments Lain‎), and the article appears to be in dire need of copyediting. Monocrat told me how much you helped with the Excel Saga FAC, so I ws wondering if you might give a hand. If you don't have the time or interest, maybe you know an equally experienced wikipedian with copyediting skills that would have it? You can answer here as I'll be watching your talk page. Thanks in advance, --SidiLemine 19:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
