[edit] Ridge Route
Hi! I took your advice regarding the use of the proper templates. The only B/W photo in the bunch that wasn't Caltrans is the one of the speed limit sign. I hope my fair use claim is correct. Could I impose on you to leave a message on the nomination page if this article meets with your approval? THANKS! - Lucky 6.9 22:32, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)
[edit] KY Medal of Honor
On the image upload page, it says "By uploading a file to which you hold the copyright, you agree to licence it under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License." That's fine by me. Do you think I still ought to specify on the image page that I do indeed agree to licence it under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License? – Quadell (talk) (help)[[]] 11:19, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] W. Mark Felt
Salve!
I went and nominated W. Mark Felt as a WP:FAC. As you commented on the article's talk page, I'd appreciate your comments at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/W. Mark Felt. PedanticallySpeaking 14:54, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Larry King
Wanted to let you know that someone reverted the "Financial & Legal Troubles" section of the Larry King bio that you did. I thought it was a very important part of his bio. DMoney 05:32, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Link problem
The reason the {{citenews}} template isn't working properly here, is because it has an additional required field: |url= which is not filled in. I'm putting the |url= in, but I couldn't find the citation, so I leave that in your capable hands. Tomertalk 18:38, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
