[edit] Dock boggs

I noticed you've got a Dock Boggs page and a Dock boggs page. I assume since you've blanked the one w/ the lower case boggs, that it was a typo. It is listed in the Orphaned Pages list, so I've marked it for deletion... --VikÞor 07:14, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Yes...I didn't know how to get rid of Dock boggs once I created it with an obvious typo. Thanks for helping to get rid of it. --Tribe 14:56, Aug 21, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Boxer pup photo

Cute photo! You've got it listed as "fair use" (that would be {{fairuse}}), and wikipedia is trying to use only photos that have free distribution licenses, such as the same GFDL under which the text of all the pages is licensed. So if it's really only fair use, that means that its redistribution is limited and we'd try to avoid using it. So you might want to consider changing it to {{GFDL}}. That's what I use for the photos I put up; I'm not by any means an expert on copyrights, though. Thanks. Meanwhile, I've commented out the photo in Wikipedia:List of images/Nature/Animals/Dogs because that's a page for free-distribution (public domain or GFDL or equiv) photos. If you decide to change the license, the page alignment is easy for me to fix. Thanks. Elf | Talk 04:36, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)

This photo is now GFDL. Feel free to use as you see fit. He's now going on six months and is about three times the size from when the photo was taken.Tribe 05:31, Aug 22, 2004 (UTC)

OK, I cropped it down and reloaded the file under the more descriptive name Image:BoxerPuppyCash.jpg. (Oh, yeah--it's amazing how quickly puppies grow--and how large!) Elf | Talk 06:31, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
