[edit] LeDoux article

Hi! I admit to being surprised at seeing a red link pop up for Chris LeDoux...but we now have a slight problem. Since you did the rewrite over the original page, the copyright violation is now a part of the edit history. You might want to drop a howdy over to an admin who can likely help fix it up for you in turn. User:Raul654 is one of the best. - Lucky 6.9 19:44, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. I'll contact him. Dave C. 22:52, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I spoke to Raul and he indicated that it's pretty much accepted that copyvios will become part of the edit history. Other than that, do you see any problems with my edits to clear the vios? Thanks. -- Dave C. 01:06, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • None I can see. Looks good now. If the copyvios are only in the edit history and not the current incarnation, I guess we're in good shape. BTW, "Apostrophe" is one of my all-time favorite albums as well! I used "Yellow Snow" as part of a final exam in my college broadcasting class years ago. Have a great weekend. - Lucky 6.9 20:32, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Very cool! Thanks, have a good one yourself! Dave C. 01:19, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Time Cube

We are facing a pointless revert war with 211.28.*.*, and based on the talk pages he/she has a lot more patience than any of us. I think we need to move this into mediation or at least a survey (so we can have an official consensus favouring a simple page). I've proposed this idea to 211.28.*.* on the talk page, please feel free to join in and add similar comments. Cheradenine 18:25, 1 May 2005 (UTC)

You are quite welcome sir, it was my pleasure. :-) ~~Shiri — Talk~~ 04:45, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Please vote

Could you please vote to get the user we call "Time Cube Guy" banned (Wikipedia:Requests for comment/211.28.*.*)? It looks like you tried to deal with him in the Greenwich Mean Time-related articles. —Sean κ. + 16:48, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mermaid Avenue

It's not about whether I think it's a folk album or not...it's straight category cleanup: Category:Billy Bragg albums is already a subcategory of Category:Folk albums, so Mermaid Avenue doesn't need to be simultaneously filed in both categories. Wikipedia actually has a stated policy about not filing articles in redundant categories. Bearcat 04:48, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] cubism

It's easier for admins to revert. The easiest way for non-admins to revert is to click on the "history" tab of the article, click on the date of the version you want to restore, click edit this page (it will warn you it's an "out-of-date" version), fill in the edit summary ("rv" would do), and click the "Save Page" button. That's four clicks or so - a bit more odious than the one-click admin revert. But still often worthwhile<g>. You mentioned copying the old source...that really would be a pain in the butt, so I suspect the method I just outlined might be new to you? - Nunh-huh 06:08, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Glad to have taught you a new trick. Remember, then: never for evil<g>. - Nunh-huh 06:16, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

Awesome! -- Dave C. 16:28, 14 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Frank Zappa discography

A bold move. I don't know many other artists (not even Miles Davis) having pages to themselves just for a discography. Good decision, it could not be possibly fully featured on the main page for longer, the article size is veering towards 40Kb

I noticed that The Beatles have their own discography. So do The Rolling Stones . FZ was 42kb; it's down to 39 now. Not sure that saved much bulk, but physical length of the article is much less. -- Dave C. 00:39, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Foreign invasion of U.S. soil (Alaska)

I guess great minds do think alike!--Lordkinbote 07:45, September 9, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Peter Rowan discography

When adding "New Freedom Bell" to the Peter Rowan discography, I noticed 2 albums listed for 2009 ("Peter Rowan and the Red Hot Pickers" and "San Antonio Sound". I can only assume this is a typo, but I don't know the correct years. Cmadler 13:51, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for welcoming

Hello Dave Cohoe, thanks for welcoming me and also for sending me that nice link about this MIT studie concerning mobile phone activities in Graz. Some of the pictures you can download are really amazing. I also had a look at your user page and I was quite astonished to how many countries/states you have already been. I like that kind of visualization and if you don't mind I will just copy it for my page. If that's not alright with just let me know. Have a nice day, Thomas Schenkeli 10:59, 20 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] major editing

Hi Dave C

I am planning to make major additions to the article on Igor Andreev...just thought I should let someone know before I start. Thanks Aabha R 07:12, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi!..umm..I have edited the page Igor Andreev..am just a bit apprehensive because its my first piece of work. Oh, and thanks for welcoming me onboard! Aabha R 13:27, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Looks fine to me. BTW, you don't need to check with anyone; just make common sense edits. It looks like you've done that. I am a bit curious about the copyright of the picture you've added. I don't think I've seen that tag used before. -- Dave C.talk | Esperanza 03:07, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Mainsail

Ah! Okay, that makes a lot more sense. It's always quite satisfying to decipher a garbled spelling like that, mm? DS 12:12, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Absolutely. I'm a bit of a sailor myself, so it just clicked. Cheers. -- Dave C.talk | Esperanza 15:45, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio template

Well the reason I created that template was in response to a trend that I noticed. Most new users on Wikipedia simply do not understand the concept of plagiarism or the policies Wikipedia has on it. Whether it simply wasn't taught in their school or maybe there was more tolerance I do not know. What I do know is that most repeat offenders of copyright violations do "Google dumps" believing that they are improving Wikipedia's breadth of content. Once they do a dump, they move on and create more pages, not knowing that are violating copyrights. This is because it is mostly the users reporting these violations do not alert the users on their talk pages. I noticed that it was not a recommended policy to alert copyright violators on first offenses so I took it upon myself to create such a template and alert every user on Wikipedia:Copyright violations but it became too daunting of a task to carry on.

My thoughts was simply that Wikipedia needed an extra provision in reporting copyright violations, that when a user reports a violation of a copyright, that they also alert the user. My template would facilitate such a task. I now see that since then, Wikipedia has added that provision. I do think that the nothanks template is lacking. Should we start a movement to improve it along the lines of my template? — oo64eva (Alex) (U | T | C) @ 17:56, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Grammar on Tietê River

Thanks for your help! Anyway, a "invader" is one that occupies an area ilegally, or "invades" it. Can you think of anything better to call them? fetofs Hello! 00:14, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I would suggest "squatter" (squatting), if that seems accurate to you. In fact, São Paulo shows up in the list of "notable and well known squats" in the squatting article. Also, see Prestes Maia. Cheers, Dave C.talk | Esperanza 00:45, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] August Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: To-Do List
The Esperanza To-Do List is a place where you may list any request, big or small, for assistance. If you need help with archiving your usertalk, for example, all you need to do is list it here and somebody will help you out. Likewise, if you need help with some area of editing on Wikipedia, list it here! Again, any matter, trivial or not, can be placed on this page. However, all matters listed on this page must not be of an argumentative nature. You do not need to be a member of Esperanza (or this program) to place or fulfill requests on this page. If you don't have any requests, consider coming by and fulfilling a few! This program has not been very active, but has lots of potential!
What's New?
In order to help proposed programs become specific enough to make into full-fledged programs, the In development section of the proposals page has been created. Proposals that are promising, but need to be organized in more detail are listed here. Please take a look at what is there, and help the proposals turn into programs.
To improve both the layout and text of the front page, in an attempt to clarify the image of Esperanza, the front page is going to have some redesigning take place. Please take your creative minds to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Front page redesign to brainstorm good ideas.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. In order to make sure all users who join Esperanza are welcomed, a list of volunteers who are willing to welcome new Esperanzians is at Wikipedia:Esperanza/Members#Esperanza_welcomers. Please add yourself if you are interested; we want to make sure all new Esperanza members are welcomed!
  2. The In development section of the proposals page has been created.
  3. Proposals page: Some proposals have been moved to the aforementioned "In development" section, some have been left as a proposal, and others have been archived. For those proposals that were a good idea but didn't necessarily constitute a program, General Esperanzial Actions has been created.
  4. Two small pieces of charter reform will be decided on in a straw poll at Wikipedia talk:Esperanza/Governance. One involves filling the position of any councillors who may leave, the other involves reforming the charter.
  5. Until cooperation with the Kindness Campaign is better defined, it remains as a proposed program.
  6. There is a page for discussing the front page redesign.

[edit] September Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Barnstar Brigade
Here in Wikipedia there are hundreds of wikipedians whose work and efforts go unappreciated. One occasionally comes across editors who have thousands of good edits, but because they may not get around as much as others, their contributions and hard work often go unnoticed. As Esperanzians we can help to make people feel appreciated, be it by some kind words or the awarding of a Barnstar. This is where the Barnstar Brigade comes in. The object of this program is to seek out the people which deserve a Barnstar, and help them feel appreciated. With your help, we can recognize more dedicated editors!
What's New?
September elections are upon us! Anyone wishing to be a part of the Advisory Council may list themselves as a candidate from 18 September until 24 September, with the voting taking place from 25 September to 30 September. Those who wish to help with the election staff should also list themselves!
Appreciation Week, a program currently in development, now has its own subpage! Share your good ideas on how to make it awesome there!
The Esperanza front page has been redesigned! Many thanks to all who worked hard on it.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  1. The proposals page has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  2. Since the program in development Appretiaion week is getting lots of good ideas, it now has its own subpage.
  3. The September 2006 Council elections will open for nominations on 18 September 2006. The voting will run from 25 September 2006 until 30 September 2006. If you wish to be a candidate or a member of the elections staff, please list yourself!
  4. The new Esperanza front page design has but put up - many thanks to all who worked on it!
  5. TangoTango has written a script for a bot that will list new members of Esperanza, which will help those who welcome new Esperanzains greatly!

[edit] November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.

Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.
What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
The last AC meeting (full log)
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
  • The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
  • In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
  • A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
  • Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.

Thanks for uploading Image:Leon Russell.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.

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. Rossrs 13:53, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm in contact with Ozomatli's management to get free-use license for this image or a free-use replacement. Will keep you posted. regards, guyzero | talk 22:06, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Do you happen to have a backup copy of this image? It was removed last week. regards, guyzero | talk 08:05, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:New Riders - Panama Red.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:New Riders - Panama Red.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.
