[edit] Link

Here's a link I'm saving for myself for an article I'll be writing soon: http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/motleycrue/articles/story/5925213/motley_crue

[edit]  ???

Could you please tell me why the hell you keep removing the images I put on. I have given them source information. -Mike kelly09

[edit] New Busch

The page is crying for a nice photo of the new park, maybe similar to the one that was deleted, only with a game in progress and showing the distance markers so that question will be settled. If someone could take a photo from atop the Arch, like the other 3, that would also be good. I would do it myself except I'm 500 miles away. d:) Wahkeenah 07:24, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] World Series teams

Since you added the World Series team categories to Walker Cooper's article, I thought I'd ask a question I posted to Floydspinky71's talk page last month (and a few others since): Are the categories for members of World Series champions really necessary? I can't help thinking it would be more economical to simply include the roster of the champion team in the article for that year's World Series (most of the WS articles could use some serious expansion). There's already something of a glut of categories on some articles, including those for baseball players with numerous All-Star appearances. (Between All-Star games and WS champions alone, Yogi Berra would end up with 25 categories, in addition to another 15 already on his page.) I don't think it's advantageous to have that many categories on an article; at some point, it gets difficult to wade through them, and individual categories become easy to miss.

[edit] Indians images

I'm sorry, but why exactly is the MLB web site an invalid source for the image? I feel like we're splitting hairs here because as I had done it (add the source but tag it as an orphaned fair use image) it would still get deleted, but at least it would be deleted for the correct reason and not because you deliberately rejected the source. Regards, howcheng {chat} 07:08, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:April Downloads 014.jpg

Please do not arbitarily change licenses. All images on Wikipedia are required to have a source and a license. It is unclear from the image description page of this image what the source is. It might be User:Mdglazerman but it certainly doesn't say so. If it's to be licensed under the GFDL, as you had tried to do, then we still need to know who the author is. You'll notice that I'd replaced this specific image in the Busch Stadium article infobox with a properly sourced and licensed image (I only point this out to demonstrate that I'm not just attempting to get rid of good pictures). Regards, howcheng {chat} 07:16, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice work on Carpenter

I saw how you cleaned up his article and added the new record from last night. Good job on keeping up with things. I haven't checked yet but did anyone put mention of Izzy taking over the all time save record for the club? Sir hugo 11:51, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blue Jays Presskit

Can you direct me to it? I'd like to use some of the images. --Tykell 21:47, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KISS

Hello! I've been thinking about the KISS article for some time, and it is a shame that it isn't up to Good Article or Featured Article status by now. I see you heavily involved with editing KISS stuff, and was wondering if you'd be up for joining forces to spiff it up? --cholmes75 (chit chat) 01:57, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

  • I was thinking we could tackle one of the band biographies, or maybe even the main article. Thoughts? --cholmes75 (chit chat) 17:20, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Elder

I'm still waiting for KISS Album Focus to show up, but in checking out KISS Behind the Mask, Allan Schwartzberg claims to have done the drums for "I" and "Odyssey." I'll wait until the other books shows up though, to get more confirmation. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 16:59, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KISS Template

I went ahead and added the two singles to the template. To edit it, go to Template:KISS. I have the singles ordered according to release date, not alphabetically. I think it makes more sense that way, but I'm always open to alternatives. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 13:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Rock and Roll All Nite" article

As far as I know, the only singles released from SS&H were "Let's Put the X in Sex" and "You Make Me Rock Hard." I think RARAN was released to coincide with the release of the "KISS Exposed" video, though. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 20:15, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KISS forever single cover.jpg

Nice job finding the image! You should probably add the source URL to the image description page, as Wikipedia is getting very strict about things like that. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 21:53, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] KISS articles

Nice work on the new articles! One thing I was wondering - what KISS resources do you have available to you? For most of the KISS stuff I edit, I regularly use the following:

  1. KISSFAQ website (great resource, as I'm sure you know)
  2. KISStory book (pretty biased, but still has lots of good info)
  3. KISS and Sell (awesome book)
  4. KISS Album Focus (lots of great info that used to be on KISS Asylum)
  5. KISS Alive Forever
  6. Various magazine articles I've saved over the years

Those are the main ones. I think the next article I would really like to beef up is Wicked Lester. There's a ton of info out there and I think we can get that to Featured Article status much easier than we could with the main KISS article. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 02:22, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Nope, no disagreement at all! I just thought it would be good if we both knew what sources we were each using. I don't have Black Diamond, so it's good you do. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 03:54, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Talk to me 1980.jpg

Sweet screen capture - did you take it yourself? --cholmes75 (chit chat) 13:43, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unmasked

Hello - Just to let you know that when you moved the screenshot recently, it caused the track listing counter to reset. If you can find a way around that, cool, but otherwise you might want to just revert it back to the place I moved it. Thanks! --cholmes75 (chit chat) 19:44, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Request for input on KISS article

Hey, when you get a chance please head over to Talk:List of important KISS dates and weigh in. Thanks! --cholmes75 (chit chat) 16:05, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Rock and Roll Over contradiction

It's gold, not platinum. Someone else added the platinum bit, which I have removed. Thanks for the heads up. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 15:41, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wicked Lester

Check it out, WL is now listed as a Good Article! --cholmes75 (chit chat) 13:43, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Goin' Blind

Well, it is a real album believe it or not. But I don't think it's the same Noel Gallagher. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 03:06, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Let Me Rock You

A few alternate covers actually. One had a different Pete pose, the other (Japan) had a cityscape view. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 23:35, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Mikel Japp

Cool. To be honest I don't know much about him, outside of his brief association with KISS. --cholmes75 (chit chat) 18:23, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Americans

Please note that KISS is properly referred to as an "[[United States|American]] hard rock band" rather than an "[[American]] hard rock band." American is a dismabiguation page, and doesn't properly identify the band's origin. Thanks. --Russ Blau (talk) 17:58, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anthony Reyes

Why have you changed the picture of Cardinals Pitcher Reyes? The picture you put on there is way to big. I cited my source for the picture, and I believe that the one before was better. Please explain your change. Wasn't Getting picky, just couldnt understand the reason for your picture :-p. And i agree the more pics the better. OKH 20:47, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3EB Songs

Well thanks for improving them. I am right now working on a discography for them. And a template. I hope to add more songs, the disco, and template within the next few hours. Stranger-in-the-future 00:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Tigers DYoung 2006.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Tigers DYoung 2006.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. 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}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  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. --Chowbok ☠ 18:42, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Please do not remove the RFU tag again. It is considered vandalism. If you dispute that the picture is replaceable, please follow the dispute process outlined above. —Chowbok ☠ 02:10, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
Constantly reiterating the fair-use justification is irrelevant when there is no dispute that the image is fair use. I know it's fair use, and I know why it's fair use. The point is that it's replaceable fair use. Removing that tag is considered vandalism, and it will get you blocked if you persist. Trust me on this. (And it's "rationale", BTW.) —Chowbok ☠ 02:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Bagwell06.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bagwell06.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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.

[edit] KISS name change debate

Not sure if you've looked at the KISS talk page recently, but there's a debate over whether or not to change the article name to Kiss (band). --cholmes75 (chit chat) 22:30, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Bagwell2006HA.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bagwell2006HA.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:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  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, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

[edit] Crazy Crazy Nights

Hello, Darwin's Bulldog. It appears that you copied and pasted Crazy Crazy Nights (song) to Crazy Crazy Nights.

If there is an article that you cannot move yourself using the move link at the top of the page, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Also, if there are any other articles that you copied and pasted, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen.
