[edit] hello!!!

hello!!!! i am a 6th grader from the philippines and i appreciate your editings in philippine related articles (especially the philippine trench, for some unknown reasons). i just want to ask on how to put images on articles. and keep on working on philippine related articles!!! user:reviewgirlerika

Hiya, thanks for the compliments. :) To upload an image to Wikipedia, click on the "Upload file" link on the toolbox at the left side of the page. Use that form to select your file and add information about it... be sure to follow the guidelines on that page, or the file may eventually be deleted! To make the uploaded file appear in an article, add the text [[Image:Filename|thumb|Caption]] to the article. For more information, see Wikipedia:Uploading images, Wikipedia:Images, and Wikipedia:Extended image syntax. :) Coffee 09:59, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Nomination?

Hi. Thanks for both the compliments about my editing and the expression of faith in me. I have sometimes thought that it would be helpful to have the ability to delete articles as I go through Recent Changes and New Articles (I get especially eager to remove those which are copyright violations). Before we discuss the idea further, though, I was wondering where it was that my editing came to your attention, as I don't recall having collaborated with you. My suspicion is that you may have noticed my edits at Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use. I did look over your contributions, and, regardless of where our conversation goes, I think its great that you have been so active in improving Wikipedia's coverage of the Phillipines. Jkelly 16:40, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. Let's take it to the community and see what people think. Jkelly 17:08, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
I posted it up, after accepting and answering the questions. Thanks, and I am crossing my fingers! Jkelly 18:29, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
It's rewarding to see that a number of people have confidence in my candidacy. I notice that, of the respondents, a small number are from Wikipedia:WikiProject Music, another small number are from Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use and a rather large number are editors that I have encountered primarily at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Since I presumably have not voted precisely the same way as they have on every article, I wonder if the reputation that WP:AFD has for being faction-infested is a little overblown. Jkelly 18:19, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the nomination. It seems that, thanks to your nomination and support, I've been made an admin. I'm looking forward to pitching in and doing some cleanup-work, but, before I do, I wanted to express my thanks again. Jkelly 08:30, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My RFA

Image:WikiThanks.png Thanks for your nomination and support. I've now been made an administrator. I'll do my best not to let you down :) --Sherool (talk) 02:21, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Maps

I greatly appeciate if you can have some time to edit the Map of Pangasinan. You can get your "inspiration" from the Government website of Pangasinan www.pangasinan.gov.ph -Docrx 19:47, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright header

Hey there. Why not leave the (very long) list of interwikis in the header where there is less (probably zero) chance of a newbie doing things to them by accident? They originally went there to keep the size of editing the page down to the bearest minimum. Since the page finishes up with them after the includeonly I don't see the need to have them anywhere but in the header. -Splashtalk 22:18, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

I know - I made the subpage structure. The interwikis in the header keeps them out of harms way and will confuse newbies less. Plus, it makes the wiki code for the mainpage much the cleaner and there is absolutely no change to the interwiki/cat status of the page. Note that the includeonly means that the header itself doesn't acquire the interwikis/cats, only the main page. -Splashtalk 22:24, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
Yes, I saw you doing that, and I think it is much better for it. It's a pity that the general instructions don't lend themselves to a much simpler expression entirely. But so few things here do...Oh, and I don't much mind about the interwikis, it's a matter of +/- a few bytes. -Splashtalk 22:36, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Unlinked nosources: updated report

I've updated User:Gmaxwell/query_nosourcenolink and I just thought you might be interested. --Gmaxwell 19:53, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted Images

Hey Coffee, you deleted all the images I uploaded to illustrate the dreadlocks article. All had a Creative Commons Attribution and/or Attribution-ShareAlike License (just like the Image:Trustafari.jpg which illustrates the Cultural appropriation article). According to the Wikipedia guideline, images with attribution and attribution-ShareAlike license are allowed to be used on Wikipedia. [1] Could you please tell me, why you deleted them regardless? Thanks CoYep 10:15, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

FYI, here are the original links:

  • [2] Sadhus.jpg -- by-nc-nd license
  • [3] DreadlockWoman.jpg -- by-nc-sa license
  • [4] Trusta.jpg -- by-nc-nd license
  • [5] Trustafari.jpg -- by-nc-sa license

Thanks for your quick response. What if I contact the copy right holders and ask them to change the rights for those images? Would that be okay? CoYep 12:02, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Great! Sending out the mails now. Wish me luck! :=) CoYep 12:12, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Alright, got one response already. How do I proceed now? Should I post the email along with the image? What about the private informations such as our email addy's? Is there a place where I can post them so you can varify the permission but can only accessed/viewed by the admins? CoYep 13:32, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Hey Coffee, it's me again. I'm sorry that I have to bother you again, but I made a mistake and uploaded the wrong picture. The photo taken by Kristina Jelcic is unfortunatly not the Image:DreadlockWoman.jpg, it's the Image:Clubbing.jpg see [6]. I now uploaded the right one, could you please delete the Image:DreadlockWoman.jpg until I get permission to use it? Thanks a lot! CoYep 19:41, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] VCU

Tell me why you deleted images from the VCU entry that enriched the article and put the campus into perspective. --StevenL 03:58, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

All of the images I deleted had no source or copyright information, and they were all tagged with warnings that they would be deleted if the information was not supplied. The criteria for speedy deletion includes "Images in category 'Images with unknown source' or 'Images with unknown copyright status' which have been tagged with a template that places them in the category for more than 7 days". These images were tagged for nearly 5 months. You may reupload them if you can supply source and license information that verifies that they are free for use on Wikipedia. Coffee 04:18, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Peaces01.gif and Sfry_em.gif

I'm very mad. Why did you delete those pictures? They had a copyright. I just forgot to put in that there is a copyright on those pictures. You could've asked me if the pictures had a copyright or not. Dbalic 23:30, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

I deleted both of the pictures when processing listings at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. You can see an archive of their listing here. They were listed as having no source and "only used in an image gallery", and no objections to deletion were raised. I can see on your talk page that you were informed about their listing for deletion. If you wish, you may reupload them with the necessary source and license information. Coffee 23:43, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] WP:PUI

I agree with you wholeheartedly. I would like to see the process amended to:

4. After 7 days of Phase I, if the issues has not been cleared up, move to the section of Phase II for the date you move it and add {{unverifiedimage}} to the caption on articles the image is on.

Listings should be processed by an administrator after being listed in Phase II for 7 days.

Putting the unverifiedimage tag on the articles is very time consuming and a waste of that time in my opinion. I don't do it or expect anyone else to.

Would you like to put a "change of process" notice on the WP:PUI and outline the process change on the talk page? -Thanks Nv8200p talk 15:15, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted images

Hi, sorry to be annoying, but you deleted a lot of images which were fair use and appeared to be orphaned. Unfortunately they weren't orphaned - they were linked from various articles. Is there any chance of getting these images back? The pages were the images were linked are Final Fantasy bestiary (A-E), Final Fantasy bestiary (F-M), Final Fantasy bestiary (N-Z). Sorry but there are too many deleted images to link to here. Hope this can help. (This message posted as part of WP:PJFF) — CuaHL 16:38, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

  • re: Final Fantasy images — Ahh! Oh well. I completely understand why you deleted them.. I just realised they appear to be orphaned. Maybe we should have left a warning not to delete. Thanks for your help anyway, I'm sure a bunch of Final Fantasy obsessed Wikipedians can get the collection back up in no time at all. Cheers mate! — CuaHL 17:07, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Eagle

The eagle on the Coat of Arms of the Philippines is incorrectly drawn. It was copied from the coat of arms of the United States. Both pair of feets are holding both arrows and olive branches not in seperate feet. Notice the seals of the Department of Foreign Affairs], Department of National Defense, House of Representatives and the Senate all have the same design. --Exec8 19:32, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

For a closer look at the seal click on http://www.angelfire.com/ri/cybernet/images/11b.jpg

Oh? Well I didn't really draw the coat of arms myself, I just found it at a government website. Hmm, I think it was the Malacañang website... yup, here it is: http://www.op.gov.ph/museum/symbols_COA.asp Coffee 03:41, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

I have one here. I think this is better. Most official documents have two animals in yellow. I dont see anything that has a brown color on it. Got it from http://www.pennantshop.com/world_flag_mugs_d2_0112.html with minor editing. I dont believe what is used in the Malacañang website is the most accurate one. --Exec8 16:54, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

As you may have noticed, my RfA was successful! :-) As you predicted, it went very smoothly. Thanks for taking the time to nominate me! -SCEhardT 21:10, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image galleries

You have in the past commented on Image Galleries nominated for deletion. Most galleries are nominated because the nominators feels that galleries violate WP:NOT. The William-Adolphe Bouguereau gallery has been nominated for deletion (here). A proposal to modify WP:NOT is here. Please join either or both conversations and comment as you see fit. Dsmdgold 16:20, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Yuck Factor

Hi, you've deleted "yuck factor" (with user Scoo) under the reason of "disguised nonsense". I don't know if it's simply that I'm very bad at describing a concept or because you think the "yuck factor" concept doesn't exist ? I've just came accross this expression in an article yesterday and though it would be good to start documenting it. You can prove yourself this expression exist by looking at google. cf definition there [7] .

If you agree it's an expression that exist, could you rewrite the stub article in a better way? Thanks Pieleric

[edit] Thank You

Hi TheCoffee, Thank you for your support on my RFB. I withdrew it with a final vote of 14/5/2 and am planning on wait awhile before possibly re-applying. Thanks again for your vote. JtkieferT | C | @ ---- 21:02, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Image:010405u.png

Hi you deleted a image "010405u.png" with the reason "not used in any article" however it was used and now you've created a broken link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hedley/April_Fool%27s_Day%2C_2005)

Ah, but that page isn't an article. Fair use images are not allowed in the user namespace. Coffee 17:59, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of Image:Koldingfc.png

Does this count for article drafts (such as User:AB-me/Kolding_FC)? WP:CSD states that "Reasonable exceptions may be made for images uploaded for an upcoming article". If the deletion is correct, then Image:Brabrand_IF.jpg, Image:Brønshøjbk.png and Image:Randersfc.png should be deleted as well. /AB-me (chit-chat) 21:34, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

If the draft was created recently, I'd say a "reasonable exception" could be made. Also, to be elegible for deletion, it has to be in Category:Orphaned fairuse images for at least 7 days. Coffee 03:21, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Deletion of SD.net image

You deleted a image from a personal user page without justification or cause. Nor did you inform me of what you were doing or warn that it might be against the rules. Since the image itself violated no rules what so ever, you abused your powers. If you delete this image again you will be reported for vandalism. Alyeska 04:22, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Had you even bothered to do even a little research into the subject you would have discovered that I am a Super Moderator from the forum in question and have the authority to allow such things on the page. That picture violates nothing and you deleted it without any warning or even researching the subject. Alyeska 16:57, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Stop vandalizing my user page in regards to the SD.net logo. I have permission from the owner of that image to display it and all you are doing is vandalizing my page for absurd reasons. Since there is no complaint and that the image was in use in the article before it became private, you have no grounds. Cease and decist your vandalism. Alyeska 21:55, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Your edits are not in good faith because there have been no complaints and you have refused to accept the fact that I have authorization to post the picture in my profile. E-mail the owner of the website in question asking and you will see what I am saying. Your being lazy by saying "rules violation" and doing nothing else. Furthermore, I did not abuse the vandalism in progress. You repeatedly vandalized a personal page after being told to stop. Alyeska 18:24, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
I've never tagged or uploaded an image before, so its somethingly completely beyond me. Rather then ask me to fix it or ask me to remove it or even ask for the information required, you just go about deleting it. As an admin, your job isn't just to go about randomly deleting things. You can fix the problem rather then erase it. Alyeska 18:33, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Coffee logo

I do not find a source for the logo used in Costa Coffee. I think it may be necessary to nominate it for removal. Do you agree with that? (I ask first, because I have not done this here before. If you know how to do that is Ok with me.) JohJak2 13:43, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't think it's necessary to delete it. Source information is usually required in order to verify the owner of an image's copyright to ensure that it really is free to use on Wikipedia. In the case of logos, it's very clear who the copyright belongs to and we can claim fair use on it. That's my understanding, at least. Coffee 08:05, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
Thank you. That clarifies it.JohJak2 16:19, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Newton

Well, if you read the article it makes considerable mention of the book and movie Treasure Island, including Robert Newton as the primary influence on popular notions of pirates, I think it qualifies as fair use in the context of the article. --Stbalbach 19:24, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] SDNet-Big-4.jpg

If that's your reason, you have a looooooooooooot of work to do. Get censoring, I suppose. Rogue 9 06:05, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] locator maps

Nice work on the locator maps. Seems you will finish the job I started and you did almost all of them! Good job. =) --seav 12:28, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

Yup, just 13 more provinces of maps to go! :) Not even I expected to finish them all when I started... Coffee 05:02, 26 December 2005 (UTC)

Very good work, indeed!. Only 7 to go, as of today, if I am right. I have taken the liberty to add the created images for the last five provinces you uploaded (South Cotabato, Southern Leyte, Sultan Kudarat, Sulu and Surigao del Norte) to the articles. Magalhães 11:19, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Oh, thanks for that. :) Only 5 more to go! Whew... Coffee 16:28, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Congratulations! I wondered how you were gonna treat Mapun, Tawi-Tawi and Turtle Islands, Tawi-Tawi. Nice job. =) --seav 23:00, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Just in time before the new year started! Congratulations! I have a lot of respect you the job you have done and I can imaging that you are really tired of it now ;) Magalhães 09:07, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

FYI: I have just completed the upload of all 1617 municipality and city locator maps to commons, for use on Wikipedias in other languages. See, commons:Category:Maps of the Philippines. Magalhães 13:32, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks mr. Coffee

Hey men thanks for cleaning up my act ok -Justox dizaola

[edit] DerekWeintraub

You deleted the biography of Derek Weintraub, and claimed it to be un-notable. Well, there were html errors, which will be fixed, but you deleted Derek Weintraub's, biography. Claiming it "un-notable!" Well let me tell you! That was completely notable. My son is a singer called D*RAD and has millions of fans! And even if he wasnt, he would still be notable. HOW DARE YOU! We will create another one, but otherwise, I will report you because you abused your powers. If you do it again, I will report you for vandalism! Derekweintraub 22:51, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, I don't remember deleting an article on "Derek Weintraub", but a Google search for the name gives 3 results. That seems very non-notable, if you ask me. Coffee 04:00, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

It does not matter if it is notable or not. And how dare you! Derekweintraub 18:08, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Geez, get a grip. It's Wikipedia policy to delete biographical articles that don't assert importance. In any case, if your son has "millions of fans" I doubt he'd need his daddy to write a Wikipedia article for him. Coffee 00:56, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

How Dare you! I am the manager of Derek Weintraub and do these things to promote him. You will be reported! 68.215.195.47 20:12, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

So you're saying that the article was spam? Oh alright, just inform me next time you re-create the article, so I can have it deleted again. Thanks! :) Coffee 04:22, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

NO I NEVER SAID THAT! YOU KEEP TALKING CAUSE YOUR BEING INVESTEGATED!!! HAVE FUN! :) 68.215.195.47 20:12, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, the important thing is that you don't add spam or non-notable biographies (like that of Derek Weintraub) to Wikipedia. Thanks! Coffee 20:36, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

Hi,
I just want to say thanks for supporting me on my request for adminship! It passed by a 58/3/0 margin, so I am now an administrator. If you need me to help you out, or you find that I'm doing anything wrong, please don't hesitate to contact me. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 19:33, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the advice! Btw, nice maps! Ever thought of doing geolinguistic maps [8]? --Nino Gonzales 05:46, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tingloy

Hi, I was adding the municipalities of Batangas to the Dutch Wikipedia, when I discovered a possible mistake in the map of Tingloy. According to the map, Verde Island in front of Batangas City is also part of the municipality. But I believe it is part of Batangas City. See also: The website of Batangas City under item terrain. Magalhães 07:37, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Hmm... that's right. Ok, I've uploaded new maps for Tingloy and Batangas City with the correction. Keep your eye out for any more mistakes! :) Coffee 08:57, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Surigao del Sur locator maps correction

Hello, in the Surigao del Sur locator maps, Surigao del Norte is labeled Surigao del Sur. =P --seav 18:45, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

All of them? :/ Hoo boy... I'll fix those tomorrow. Err, later today. Thanks! :) Coffee 18:53, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
All done! Coffee 12:10, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Syck

heh, stuff has gone to deletion review lately for being speedy deleted when it didn't break WP:CSD, is why I was listing that on AfD. I agree that some just really seem obvious deletes... but not everyone agrees... --W.marsh 05:24, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] ROTS soundtrack

I know this isn't common practice, but I manually moved the article on the ROTS soundtrack you had at Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Soundtrack, to Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (soundtrack), which had already been created by someone back in December as a redirect to the main ROTS article. Since there was only one edit for each article (you had made one edit to establish the page on yours, the other guy had made one edit in redircting), I simply copied from yours to the correct title, and redirected the page you had established there.

I normally wouldn't do this, but the page would not move since one was already there, and since there was only one edit to each of the articles, I saw no problem in manually moving the text. The Wookieepedian 08:28, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Alright, I guess that won't be a problem. Coffee 12:30, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Pls visit AfD Cyberservices, and see an article created by the same "user" - AfD Philippine Cyberservices Corridor. Pls encourage more well known users to make a vote.

I see you created this article and I just noticed someone making odd looking edits but I'm unable to decide if it's vandalism/POV or not. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 08:36, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

It's some pretty crude editing, but I don't think it's vandalism. I've cleaned it up a bit. Coffee 10:33, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: adminship

Yes, I would like to be an admin. However, I don't want to be nominated yet; I want to wait till some school-related issues are settled, so I know how much I'll be able to contribute to wikipedia. I'd say I really won't know about this until late March/early April. Thanks, Graham/pianoman87 talk 10:28, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adminitis

The page in question is ha ha only serious. Many otherwise nice people (though typically admins) on wikipedia have actually experienced similar symptoms.

Often they manage to cure it by going on wikibreak, though some have failed and gotten driven off the wiki. For instance User:Ed Poor who I've actually met in real life. There is just no way you could imagine that this man might ever behave anything other than in an upstanding way. Yet he has lost all his privileges on wikipedia, due I believe to (what we're now trying to call) adminitis.

Anyway, you do seem to be displaying some (early) symptoms of the syndrome. So hmm, like, please take care! Kim Bruning 17:33, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, well, nominating the page for MFD is explicitly listed as a symptom. ;-) Also not seeing the humor implicit in that page might be.
Basically, just try to imagine wikipedia as just a bunch of pixels on a computer screen. Rearrange the pixels a little, and you might get a show by Bozo The Clown, for instance. If you're having trouble visualising that, or if you're not having fun but are still here, then you may indeed be suffering from adminitis. :-) Kim Bruning 18:10, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Just PM me when you're on IRC :)--Shanel 18:48, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved

Entering holy ground, bowing and kneeling in reverence; Oh mighty admin, we have moved the article based on user hateless's suggested article title. It is now Philippines under state of emergency, 2006. We have done his bidding, I hope the master must be grinning, and is most pleased. ;) --Noypi380 03:24, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Ho ho, calm down there.. :p It was User:Hateless and User:El C that suggested that title, not I. Personally I think it would be more fitting for the article title to focus on the coup attempt rather than the state of emergency. But whatever, things have a way of fixing themselves on Wikipedia... Coffee 03:33, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Hmmm. Yes, true. coup attempt is the focal point. :) --Noypi380 03:58, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Lordsurya? Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about... But you can achive your talk page yourself. See Wikipedia:How to archive a talk page. :) Coffee 11:02, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] kevin frayne?

the kevin frayne article was simply amazing

though blatantly fictional, it was amazingly humourous in its grandeur and there was no page that was edited it it's making, rather, it was created for fun. I know the rules, but whovever constructed it was brilliant in doing so, seeing as time was obviously spent on it.

For shame, TheCoffee, for shame.

[edit] Provinces of the Philippines

If you want to make sure you get my vote on this, a very, very brief explanation about how the regions are numbered when they're mentioned in the lead, would do the trick. :) - Mgm|(talk) 20:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your support in my RfA, and I'm glad I had someone fooled into thinking I was one. :-) It passed with a final tally of 62/0/1. I'm touched by all the kind comments it attracted, and hope I'll be of some use with my new tools. You know where I am if you need to shout at me. Flowerparty? 15:54, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Crash

Hi there, Coffee. Fellow Blue Eagle Computer Science grad here. As someone who thinks Wikipedia rocks, I think it's cool to find you've made it here on Wikipedia (being an admin and 300th most active Wikipedian and all that).  :-)

Anyway, I was watching the Crash (2004 film) article, when I saw your Talk. Good film, huh. My take on the the "Chinaman" scene: it was to show that this seeming victim (who got run over and kept being called by a racial label) actually victimizes others (fellow Asian immigrants even -- in contrast to Ludacris's character, who draws the line at not robbing other African-Americans) for profit. The hurry to cash the check shows that he's motivated by money; it was probably a payment related to his human-smuggling, or maybe some kind of health or insurance coverage for his injuries.

OK, that wasn't so interesting. I just basically wanted to give a shout out. --Mercurio 09:59, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
