[edit] I like it..
Hi Corpx, what's up? I just wanted to tell you that it's usually not favored to explain your votes in any kind of debate with phrases like "I like it". Just a heads up. ← ANAS Talk? 14:52, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WikiGnome award
Hi Corpx- You recently opposed my WikiGnome personal user award proposal because it does not really resemble a barnstar. I placed additional comments on the proposal page here that I would appreciate your reviewing in hopes that you would change your position. Also, I am open to suggestions as to how I can make the award more look like existing personal user awards. Thanks. -- Jreferee 20:45, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User:68.196.251.220
I had to do a correction of Flight 19 due to the unwanted attention of this individual. Due to the large amount of vandals on Wikipedia, I may have to enroll in anti-vandal school! Carajou 22:18, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] nofollow
- I know external links are nofollow now. It is still considered spam to add an actual informational link that happens to be on a commercial site?
- Obviously if I know it's a nofollow I am not posting a link looking for benefits of linking to an authority site or PR help - that's what spammers are looking for. It certainly isn't for click through traffic, there really is no future in relying on that. The main reason really is to give the anglers something they are actually looking for, use your logic man and common sense - don't over analyze.
- Since everything is nofollow now Wiki should consider being a bit more flexible on some of the resources they will accept. I am making an assumption but you probably aren't the outdoors type so you wouldn't know that an up-to-date fishing report is a resource in great demand by anglers that fish for all species, bass or other. Just a thought.
- I won't post again but I sure get a little discouraged when I see other commercial sites sit up there for days on end that are nearly identical to a few of my sites. Not counting ESPN, did not mean to delete that really in my haste.
- You have a nice weekend. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.10.139.87 (talk) 04:26, 27 January 2007 (UTC).
I had looked at your discussion page here and it seems like the a lot of other people also thought your links might not be suitable for wikipedia. The best way before adding what might be considered controversial is to discuss it on the discussion page. People browsing these pages will be much more informed about the validity that people that are just checking the recent changes. Corpx 15:00, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your report on 64.53.84.195 to WP:AIV
FYI: [1]
Just wanted to let you know that I removed your report without action because the IP hadn't vandalised since your final warning. I'm not sure if you were using a tool such as VandalProof to make this report, but it's best to wait until an IP has vandalised after the final warning before making the report. Thanks, Deathphoenix ʕ 17:43, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] those crazy warnings and {{test}} tags
yeah, i don't throw down a lot of warning tags... i go into it in greater detail here: [2]. -- frymaster 17:52, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Gianna Michaels
Please do not add direct links to xxx videos/pics for sites she has worked for. This can be construed as promotional material for the sites. Corpx 21:29, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- I can understand not publishing the external links but how can you cite sources or references if you won't allow a direct link? - User talk:24.72.109.227
-
- I'm not familiar with the bangbros sites too well, but it should be pretty easy to navigate to her scene once at the site, right? Corpx 01:24, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
If you go to the bangbros website (www.bangbros.com), it will only give you links to their individual sites inlcuding Big Tits, Round Asses (BTRA). With both sites, they have an Adults only warning.
Once you click enter on the BTRA website (www.bigtitsroundasses.com), you are taken to thier pages of most recent models which may or may not include the person we are citing a source or reference to. The link I provided (http://www.bigtitsroundasses.com/t1/pps=skoopy/shoots/btra2316.htm) is the direct link to Gianna's most recent solo shoot with BTRA.
I would suggest that if the sources or references cited are considered as "promotional material", even though they do confirm that she is featured on the website, that the citation tag be removed and it is taken on good faith that she has appeared on the websites listed.
[edit] Ivy Queen
Hi i am not sure if this is where i am supposed to contact you but i just wanted to clarify in no way shape or form did i consider my addition to the ivy queen page vandalism. I was careful to use all the proper puncutuation and grammar and it is a valid claim that some people have argued. I thought that was one of wikipedia's main goals, having a diverse array of points of view. Please do not delete my valid edits. Thank you.
- Your edit was "It is rumoured that Martha either had a sex change or was born intersexed because of her masculine face, her low-pitched voice, and the curious name of "Ivy Queen" (a common term for transvestites).". You provided no sources to it at all and wikipedia frowns upon "rumors". Corpx 05:18, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Navasota ISD Page
You let me know how I can appropriately let everyone who views the NISD page know that the whole student body despises Brett Rumbo and I'll quit "vandalizing" your precious Wikipedia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by GSki11 (talk • contribs) 07:12, 13 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Coltmccoy-corpx.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Coltmccoy-corpx.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

You reverted Lisa Leuschner back to the old page... I don't understand why. No vandalism... I was trying to improve the page. Reasons?

[edit] Report on 63.175.185.131
Sorry, it wasn't me that made the edit to Stud inappropriately, it was someone else on my IP address. You can imagine that it was not hard to figure out who it was since he used his name in the edit :-P I've talked to him and he won't do it again. Didn't mean to cause any problems.
[edit] Image:Coachfran-corpx.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Coachfran-corpx.jpg. 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 that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - 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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, 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. Ytny (talk) 18:15, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] WP:AIV reports
Hey! Thanks for your reports to WP:AIV. However, in the future, please make sure that vandals reported have vandalized PAST the final warning. Most recently. User:165.234.180.57 was reported by you. This user has 1 edit today and 1 warning. They may repeat or they may not. Many admins will imemdiatly remove such cases to be reported later if the vandalism continues. Hope this helps and thanks again. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 15:19, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- The user in question had a bv less than 24 hours ago. Isnt that considered vandalism past final warning? Corpx 15:26, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- With that large a gap and it being an anon IP, generally not. There generally needs to be clear evidence that it is the same person commiting the act of vandalism and a gap that large, especially if it is a school ip, is generally not a large enough gap. I generally look for vandalism within 30 minutes, sometimes an hour but not 12 hours or so. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 15:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- I have again removed a anon WP:AIV entry that you reported that had not been warned in 2 days. I am not going to notify you again when I do this, but this is just a courtesy letting you know that, if vandals are not approriatly warned, many admin will just remove it from the list. -- Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 17:07, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A question
Since you're an RC patroller you might know the answer. Is destroying your own talk page considered under the family of uw-delete user warning series?Well, I've regarded so...But now I am confused since there is really no page stating so,or that page is unknown to me. 121.7.56.203 15:22, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
- I honestly have no idea Corpx 15:23, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Rick.png listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Rick.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] User_talk:88.231.15.41
Corpx, I noticed that you left a final notice on this talk page for spam links. This morning, I noticed that the user had added links to 10 more articles (Special:Contributions/88.231.15.41). I just thought I'd let you know since I was reverting the edits, but I'm unaware of what to do with the user. --Hamitr 17:01, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- I added the spam4 warning after after he/she posted the edit to FuseTalk. So, I was waiting for the user to make 1 more edit after final warning to report. Looks like the spammer has stopped though. Corpx 19:00, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] User 69.58.43.3
I noticed that you added a last warning to user 69.58.43.3
s/he did another bit of vandalism to Seneca Falls Convention which was undone by a bot. 69.58.43.3 shoulod be blocked now.

[edit] Very well
I'll stop, But I would like you to have an honest read of what I said. Don't just dismiss it as spam, because my intention was for it to be informative. Informative of the negatives of that particular subject.
[edit] New picture
Hi Corpx, I hope you are doing well. Thanks very much for uploading the new picture of Godzillatron. It is nice. I want to talk to you about a few points related to the image:
- Could you please upload it to Commons instead of Wikipedia? Since it is a free image, it would be useable then across all Wikipedia projects, not just the English project. Other projects may want a shot of a giant high definition video screen. Also, several other languages have articles on UT and on the Longhorns. We have a category on the commons specifically for the 2006 UT football team. It is linked from the bottom of that article. Let me know if you need any help with this.
- The image will need better info about its source. If you got it off a web page on HornFans, you will need to provide a URL. You will also need to archive a copy of the permission to use.
- It looks like you replaced all instances of the other photo. However, it seems like some variety would be better. I left the new pic on DKR and included both pics on Godzillatron since there is ample space.
- When you put the new image on the 2006 team article, you did not change the caption, and the new picture does not illustrate the same points as the old picture (appearance from far side of the field, small version of the six flags). Therefore, I went back to the old picture for this.
Thanks again for uploading the picture. Johntex\talk 15:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, there is a school-of-thought that says that a picture like this can't be totally free because the video being shown was presumable copyrighted by someone. That may make my point 1 above a bad idea but my point 2 above to be even more important. When I uploaded Image:Brahma beer advertisement.JPG I originally released it under a free license, but it was determined that it may be better off under fair use since it is showing a copyrighted image. Diligently providing all the documentation will help ensure that this picture does not get deleted. User:Rebelguys2 is active in a lot of image deletion discussions. I recommend you seek his advice. Best, Johntex\talk 15:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
