[edit] C100 FM/CIOO

Hi there...just so you know, Wikipedia articles about radio and television stations have to be titled by the station's proper call sign, not by the brand name that they use on air. The issue is that a brand name like C-100 isn't necessarily a unique identifier. (Just take a look at how many stations are listed at Q107...and there may still be more to be added.) The article can mention the brand name, yes, but the actual title of the article must be the station's four-letter call sign (with AM, FM or TV suffix if necessary), because that's the only identifier a station has that's always unique.

[edit] Image uploading

Hi BoyoJonesJr.

When you indicate that images are uploaded under the GFDL it is important to indicate who the image author/publisher actually is so that credit can be given appropriately. Could you be sure to tag your images with that information when you use the {{GFDL}} template? (Here's a list of all your image contributions: [1]).

For any image that you created yourself (that is, it is a photograph that you took) and that you want to release under the GFDL, you can use the {{GFDL-self}} template.TenOfAllTrades(talk) 23:32, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Also, take care that the image copyright tag that you add is correct; Image:Antigonish.gif, for instance, is covered by Crown copyright (as noted here) and should bear the tag {{NovaScotiaCopyright}}. (Most government documents and images are not available under GFDL.) TenOfAllTrades(talk) 23:46, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Moving pages

Re ATV (Canada) -> CTV Atlantic: In the future, please use the "move" tab at the top of the screen. See Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages (under "Renaming"). Cut-and-paste effectively removes an article's history and makes things much more complicated than they need to be. Thanks! - Stickguy 02:57, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Hi Boyo, Image:Stfx-science-centre.jpg and Image:Building_bloomfield.gif have been tagged as "orphaned fair use" for more than seven days. If they are not fair use, please fix their license information. If they are fair use, please note that they aren't allowed on user pages, so unfortunately they will have to be deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Xhall-png.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Xhall-png.png. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. Sherool (talk) 20:05, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Townhall.jpg

Why did you label this image as Nova Scotia - I'm sure that its the one in Stornoway. Are there two near identical buildings?--JBellis 17:57, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use images on user page

Hi,

You need to remove the fair use images from your user page. Please see WP:FU if you have any questions, specifically policy #9. Fair use images should only be used in the article namespace. Used outside article space, they are often enough not covered under the fair use doctrine. They should never be used on templates (including stub templates and navigation boxes) or on user pages.

[edit] Sobeys

Just thought I'd fill you in on the logo. It actually was edited, although the change was minimal. I've worked with Sobeys from 2001 through 2006 and am a graphic designer, so I tend to notice all the little details. It was also mentioned at the conference I attended in 2002 covering the changes that "Ready to Serve" was to introduce. I managed to dig up a couple of references. Old logos: http://www.rcsretail.ns.ca/images/sobeysLetter.gif http://www.cthrc.ca/eng/images/Sobeys%20at%20NSCC.jpg Like I said, it was a minimal change, but when you compare to the new logo, you can see the the S was altered to wrap around the o. The last s was also changed to match. Also, my line on Compliments Balance was referenced from Sobeys' own website.

Feel free to contact me :)

[edit] Antigonish Regional Development Authority

Hi BoyoJonesJr,

The Antigonish Community Profile is simply to add more detailed information under the economy section. We are a public, not for profit organization that is funded by various levels of government. Let me know if the link to the Antigonish Community Profile is alright.

Thanks!


[edit] Image:Antigonish.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Antigonish.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) 19:20, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of Festival Antigonish Link

Hi BoyoJones!

I was just wondering why you deleted the link that I just put in for Festival Antigonish Summer Theatre. It's one of the big cultural events around the town and would seem to belong there, or maybe there needs to be a section for culture or something like that? Or do you have any other ideas what we should do. (If I was supposed to ask before I added it, I apologize!) It seems like it does belong someplace on in the Antigonish listing. And boy, I sure could use some help with Wikipedia. I'm trying to put together a page for FAST and it's more complicated than I thought it might be. I live in Antigonish and am on the board of FAST. Thanks for your help. LEMca Nov.29 LEMca 02:18, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:Ant-town.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 13:38, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Ant-county.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Ant-county.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Quit vandalizing Joe buck

Quit vandalizing Joe Buck, the guy might be a horrible broadcaster [most likely the worse ever] but you don't need to rewrite history because of it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Stoked (talk • contribs) 01:17, 1 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Joe Buck

When something is a sports headline for a few days afterwards it deserves to be there. He was taken to task by every single major sports show about reading blind items. PTI had a multiple segments on it. Around the horn did as well, the NFL network has a 15 min segment on it during their weekly recap and they wondered if Joe buck stammering backward apology was enough. The following week during every pregame show (even the one on fox) had AT LEAST a 5 minute segment on it. So when you say that that is not controversy, you are either Joe himself, or have no perspective on American football. And i know you are from Canada, so maybe you don't realize how much of a big deal this was in the America sports world, but it was big. And yes, I don't like the guy,there isn't a sports fan who does, and that is why i watch this entry, to make sure people get the real facts about him and future sport casters can see exactly what not to do, like not blindly reading items that are handed to them (think Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Stoked (talk • contribs) 18:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
