    Hello and welcome. Just a quick entry to set this up. That way, I can see the contents incase the first post here was very large. - EarthPerson

    [edit] WP:PROD

    Just a quick heads-up - policy is NOT to re-insert a {{prod}}. It is for proposed unchallenged deletion of articles. Anyone is entitled to remove it, hence implicitly challenging the proposal. Once challenged procedure is to propose AfD not re-assert the {{prod}}. This came to light with regard to DeConcini, McDonald, Yetwin and Lacy which has now been put to AfD (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2006 August 30). Cain Mosni 02:32, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

    Thank you for the notice on the prod tag. My apologies. I was confusing this with the AfD tag. You were one of two who let me know. Yipes! :) --EarthPerson 02:45, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
    (also mirrored on your talk page)
    I saw the reply. Thankyou. Most courteous. Anyhow - no worries. Confusion is easy. I can only be smug about it because I happened to look it up less than half an hour ago. Prior to that I'd always gone through AfD. Cain Mosni 02:49, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Prod

    Per the Wikipedia:Proposed deletion policy:

    “ If anyone, including the article's creator, removes Template:Prod from an article for any reason, do not put it back, except if the removal was clearly not an objection to deletion (such as blanking the entire article, or removing the tag along with inserting blatant nonsense); however, if the edit is not obviously vandalism, do not restore it, even if the tag was apparently removed in bad faith. ”

    The removal of the prod tag from DeConcini, McDonald, Yetwin and Lacy by Harvardlaw (talk • contribs) was clearly an objection to deletion and therefore should not have been reverted. The proper thing to do in such cases is to take the article to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion rather than reinsert the prod tag; I have therefore nominated the article (deletion discussion). Please do not revert removals of prod tags in the future, regardless of how much the article deserves deletion. Happy editing! -- Jonel | Speak 02:27, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

    ditto from above --EarthPerson 02:48, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
    (also mirrored on your talk page)
    I added the following to Harvardlaw's talk page in reference to this issue;
    Note: Removal of the 'prod' templates is allowed and taken as indication that someone believes the article should be kept. The 'prod' template should never be re-added to a page. Further, this demonstrates the problems of the 'wr0' and related templates. IMO these should never be used as being forced to display a past warning is insulting and can become harassment... but is especially bad when the warning was incorrect. It is too easy to make mistakes about process or have different interpretations of what is 'neutral point of view' or 'vandalism', and thus we should not be edit-warring to enforce display of potentially mistaken or subjective warnings. --CBD 11:58, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Fictional astronauts

    The order is (ideally) in terms of technical difficulty - which for the most part corresponds to distance from Earth, so, Moon bases < Venus missions < Mars missions < Jupiter < Saturn < interstellar travel. The idea is to give the fictional works in the context of a kind of "future history" with increasingly ambitious and technically challenging missions, so that someone using the list can find the works with similar subject matter immediately adjacent to each other; but the assignment of fictional dates by the various writers turns out to be so random that they can't be used for that purpose.

    [edit] Vandalism?

    Ummm...I'm not sure how to contact people on this site, so forgive me if this is wrong, but I'm a little confused as to what I did to make you think I vandalized something. I checked the page you said I vandalized (something about July 8th?), and I don't even remember viewing that page, much less editing or vandalizing it. So unless I have amnesia or something, I'd like an explanation. (70.187.226.94)—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.187.226.94 (talk • contribs) 21:38, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

    Hi. You contacted me correctly. Forgive me if you took offense at my message. I'm referring to the edits to the article July 8, 2004 shown here [1] and here [2] which I reverted here [3]. The first two edits were done by the IP address you are using. You can see edits for any page by looking at the History tab for an article.
    Since IP addresses can be dynamic, it most certainly could have been someone else. You can see other messages from other editors on your IP address' talk page, so it looks like this IP has been used before for disruptive editing.
    My apologies as I did not mean to insult you. Please feel welcome to Wikipedia. Please read the Introduction and you may want to consider creating your own account for editing. That way, you won't be mistaken for other user who may have used the same IP address as you. --EarthPerson 22:18, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
    (Note: this was also posted, along with your post for context, to the 70.187.226.94 talk page.)

    Well, it must have been someone else, because as I said, I've never been to that page, and I certainly didn't make those edits. I'm not exactly computer-savvy, so I have only the faintest idea what an IP address is, and I don't know what you mean by shared IP address and all of the rest...all I know is that the person who's typing this right now (and the person who saw your message) didn't make those edits. It's no big deal or anything, I just wanted to figure out why I was getting a message to stop doing something I hadn't done. (70.187.226.94)—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.187.226.94 (talk • contribs) 01:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

    Okay. No harm, no foul.  :) I'm often under the incorrect thought that most people who are here are people editing, when the number of people who are just reading is surely much higher. Again, welcome and please feel free to edit if you desire or just to use Wikipedia as a reference. --EarthPerson 01:54, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Talk pages

    1. That page was junk and vandalism, not a collection of a comments to improve the article. 2. I dont need junk about edit summaries. 3. I dont mean to be rude, its the readers fault if they assume so. Thats why I removed the text from my page and brought the talk page on the article back to its clean slate. Pogo 21:23, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Your edit to Polyphasic sleep

    It seems you actually accidentally vandalized polyphasic sleep. The vandalism was already reverted when you edited the page, so you ended up restoring the vandalism. This has now been corrected. Please be careful in your edits. A reply to this comment is not necessary and will not be reviewed by me. --Amit 23:32, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

    Whoops! Thanks. I didn't catch that. --EarthPerson 23:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Harvardlaw

    Good catch. I just noticed user:72.204.225.148 but I see you were way ahead of me. If he hadn't insisted on once again inserting vain material into the project I'd have let it pass, but he seems unable to do so. I've blocked the IP, which appears to be used by him exclusively, for two months. That's unusually long for an IP, but thenthere is a long history with this user. -Will Beback · † · 08:54, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

    He is someone that I've gotten in the habit of checking up on. He does have a huge set of IPs used in the past. I thought about making a subpage on these, but didn't since that would be tantamount to stalking. He does have great potential and I think that's why he is tolerated over other more vandalous editors. I would think that someone with nearly a dozen IPs would be banned, but he's like an exasperating student. If he were to create pages on some of his interests outside of Wikipedia, some could be excellent external links.--EarthPerson 15:14, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
    Yes, he has potential, but he tends to distort facts. His work on the USS Simpson article became increasingly fanciful. He is not entirely tolerated - user:Harvardlaw was blocked indefinitely. I hope that blocking this one IP doesn't disturb your ability to track him. It may, of course, just push him onto a different IP. -Will Beback · † · 17:39, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
    user:Harvardlaw doesn't show as blocked on the talk or (not created) user page, so I was not aware of that. I thought someone would have blocked the myriad of IPs and encouraged him to use the named ID. After reading his edit to Pinal County, Arizona, I agree with the word fanciful.  :) --EarthPerson 19:27, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
    Here's the block: [4] If you're a fan of Silver you may enjoy this edit, the one that led to this latest block: [5] Still, it doesn't compare to one of the greatest bits of vanity I've seen on Wikipedia: [6] It's really kind of funny. -Will Beback · † · 22:12, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] comment from User:82.12.252.122

    (Moved from my User Page to my Talk Page)

    Why are you messaging me, huh, 82.12.252.122 22:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC), is it about my comment on the M. Donald discussion page, in my opinion it wasn't fair, I wasn't rude. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.12.252.122 (talk • contribs) 22:15, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

    First, please use my Talk Page and not my User Page to communicate. And please sign your posts properly. I'm commenting about your additions to both Talk:Emmett Till and Talk:Stand!. I have attributed these to you based on the page histories and then removed them. You can see them in the respective page histories. As for your remarks on Talk:Michael Donald, all I did was to attribute them to you as one was unsigned and the second was signed by another user who did not appear to be you. They are baiting, but are not as inflammatory as the first two. You or whoever else edited under your IP address left remarks here and here that serve only to spread hate and uncivil behavior. If these remarks were not made by you then I do apologize. You may want to create an ID if you want to edit. --EarthPerson 22:46, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Adoption

    Hi EarthPerson -

    Thanks for your comment about the Name - it is a difficult one - it seems every name you could choose has various meanings. Personally I think sponsor is a bit formal, a bit money orientated. But then again adoption sounds like a bond for life. I hope you will consider becoming an Adopter though - could do with the help, or indeed just the word spread around. Cheers Lethaniol 00:38, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

    I hope you will stay and make your contributions to WP:ADOPT. It is very useful for an outsider (i.e. I don't think you have "adopted" anyone) to comment and bring some thoughts to the discussion. Stops us getting too carried away.
    In terms of the term Adoption - I don't, and I suspect anyone else does care about the term - it is the principle of the system that we do.
    Cheers Lethaniol 14:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
    Lethaniol, I don't know if you'll read this or not (I know, I could post it to your talk page), but I did want to follow up on this, even if for my own need to decompress. I was bothered by this exchange relating to WP:ADOPT. What was said would never have been said if the term was mentor. I found this by looking over talk pages of people involved with WP:ADOPT.
    I've not taken the adoption project page off my watch list, but I rarely lurk there. Hope all is well. Ironic also that User:Flameviper is banned when they were the one that started the project. --EarthPerson 01:58, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] comment from User:82.2.52.167

    (Moved from my User Page to my Talk Page)

    WHY DO YOU KEEP ON REMOVING MY COMMENTS, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU, DO YOU WANT ME TO VANDALISE YOUR ARTICLES? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.2.52.167 (talk • contribs) 16:49, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

    Firstly, I don't want you to vandalize any articles. If you only want to vandalize, then you should't be here. Vandalism is not welcome. If you are the same user as User:82.12.252.122 then you either didn't read Wikipedia:Civility or you didn't understand it. I removed those comments because they were offensive. I don't understand why you are proud of them. You are welcome to revert them but they will get removed again. If not by me, then by someone else.
    Also, please comment on my talk page, not my user page and please sign your post with four tildes (the "~" character) in a row. That will put your ID and a timestamp by what you've added. Please give me a link to what you say I've done. You can paste it here in your reply. Or tell me the article or articles and I will check the history. As for it having nothing to do with me - Wikipedia is for everyone to edit. Please tell me what you mean.
    You may want to consider getting an ID rather than use an anonymouse IP. The one that you are currently using has only commented on my user page and so I really can't tell what you are referring to. Thanks. --EarthPerson 17:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Speedy deletion

    For future reference, to list a page that you created in error or one with only contributions by you, you only have to add a {{db-author}} to the article to list it on CAT:CSD for speedy deletion :D. I speedy deleted the MFD request, nonetheless. Cowman109Talk 01:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

    Many thanks. I'll keep that in mind. I panicked bit when I saw it was in the WP space. I just checked and the BJAODN link is correct now. --EarthPerson 01:54, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Thanks!

    for the revert on my user page.  :) NawlinWiki 22:43, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

    No problem. You may get to return the favor.  ;) --EarthPerson 22:45, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] comment from 206.131.152.91

    (Moved to its own section)

    Dear Eath Person, you've got the wrong man! I didn't vandalize nothin! For more details see the article on "Hitchcockian wrong man situations." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.131.152.91 (talk • contribs) 18:18, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

    Your talk page and contributions seem to indicate otherwise. If this is someone using a shared IP, then be aware that others are using it vandalize Wikipedia. You should consider making an account so as not to be mistaken for another person. --EarthPerson 18:31, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] How do you send messages?

    Hey, thanks for sending me the message! I'm a new user and I don't know how you send messages, would you mind telling me how? And one more thing, how do you edit pages with a lock on them? I wanted to add stuff to the evolution page - (the different kinds of evolution macro, micro, cosmic...) Would adding you on my watchlist be like adding you as a friend? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Daniel 19 (talk • contribs) 21:52, 12 December 2006 (UTC).

    Hi Daniel 19, I must have sent the message to the talk page of the IP address that you were using. Can you tell me what page it was that you edited? Sending a message is a simple matter of signing on a user's talk page, the way you did with me. When you did that and saved the change, it showed that I had a new message. It's very much like posting to an article's talk page (on the discussion tab at the top of each article's page).
    As for editing a locked page, I looked at Evolution and didn't see it was locked. You should be able to edit it. Read through the page first, to see if there are already pages or sections for macro, micro and so on. Some pages are locked to prevent editing by new or anonymous users. Often this is done to prevent vandalizing them.
    And adding a user's page to your watch list is sort of like adding as a friend. It would update your watchlist with any changes made to either my talk to user pages. There are various welcoming committees and such, including:
    Oh yes, and one good habit to get into is to sign posts on talk pages.--EarthPerson 22:25, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] China Center of Adoption Affairs

    Hi. I see that you're the sole editor for China Center of Adoption Affairs. Could you provide references or even just a brief comment on its talk page explaining why this is a notable organization per WP:N? --Ronz 16:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

    Hi Ronz. I've added some references on China Center of Adoption Affairs as it relates to international adoption to the US. I also added the globalize tag and explained on the talk page that I hope that the article grows to have parts on the CCAA's three main responsibilities (domestic adoption, international adoption and Chinese social welfare institutes). I can't seem to find much on adoption to other the countries from China, but these would all go through the CCAA. I've not looked for articles on the growing number of Chinese adopted abroad, but there must be something about it. After all, there is a whole generation that will grow up to be the lost daughters of China, not unlike the Lost Generation of the Cultural Revolution. Does the article meet the notable requirement? Please tell me what you think. I'd like to see the article grow and eventually split off an article on International Adoption from China or similar and others if needed. Thanks. --EarthPerson 19:21, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
    Wow! Great work! --Ronz 19:55, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
    w00t! Thanks!  :-D --EarthPerson 19:57, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

    [edit] Pansy Parkinson

    "Okay. I see it now. Pansy is in the same graduating class (or Year) as Harry. The way I read what was there it seemed that Pansy was a Slytherin during Harry's (single) year at Hogwarts (without saying if she was in the same class (grad year). Can you confirm that she is a first year the same year as Harry? There should be a more clear way of writing it. Thanks. --EarthPerson 19:55, 8 January 2007 (UTC)"

    Can I confirm that Pansy is in the same (school) year as Harry? Yes - she attends the same classes as Malfoy (definitely in Harry's year), she is at the First Years' flying lessons. It even said in the article that she was at a Care of Magical Creatures lesson where she did something with a unicorn. The idea that "Pansy was a Slytherin during Harry's (single) year at Hogwarts" wouldn't even make sense - Harry has been at Hogwarts at least six years. Just add 'school' before 'year', that'll make it clear enough. Michaelsanders 20:00, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

    Done. Thanks for the help. --EarthPerson 20:03, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

    I have removed the category from my User Page. However, I am not going to add "Wikipedians born in 1990" because it would probably ruin the clean look of the page. I'm trying to keep the User Page as clean and as neat as possible so I'm not told to remove material from it. Don't forget to warn other Users who also used the "1990 births" category as well.

    [edit] Kasamh Se article

    Hey just a heads up - I noticed some vandalism on the talk page and have deleted it. It was childish and I seriously don't like being told that I'm a moron, and that the author would like to kill me, even if made in jest. This page needs to be watched continuously as I think this is going to continue for a while. I think the people who add the comments page to the article share the same IP address, so probably the same person - any way of complaining to the powers that be if this continues and have the address banned? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kitushi (talk • contribs) 20:02, 14 January 2007 (UTC).

    I saw that too. I've added Kasamh Se to my watch list. You know how to do that, yes? Just click the watch tab at the top of any page and you will be able to see when a page or its comments change. I've not seen if the IPs are all the same or not, but yes, there ways to deal with editors who aren't following the rules. The death threat could get them banned indefinitely.

    [edit] Re: translation

    I'm sorry I can't give you a better translation, but you essentially have it correct, the literal translation is something to the extent of "Bosnia inside hearts, Serbia inside cocks" -- also the 2 words rhyme so it is most likely some sort common ethnic-related provocation term used. The most active native Serbian speakers I have encountered on Wikipedia are User:Hadžija, User:PANONIAN, and User:PaxEquilibrium and one them can probably put it in a better context if necessary. // Laughing Man 18:40, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

    Thanks. I will check with them. --EarthPerson 18:41, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
    Yep, this definitely violates WP:U. It basically means Bosnia's in my heart, Serbia's fucked (kurac, meaning cock, is used idiomatically in this context :)). So yeah, pretty offensive if you haven't been having fun on WP for 2+ years and aren't used to the out-there notions of civility WP users have :)--Hadžija 19:01, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

    User pages are supposed to be user pages. Not articles. You may want to consider moving your article content to a subpage. But you still can't have the copyrighted images on those pages. Thanks. --EarthPerson 23:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

    Is there a way to stop these images from being listed as orphaned. When your removed them that is what happened. I have also hit a breakthrough in my Creator of Light Horus artical. It should be fully functioning within a couple of days. If you notice that the images are added back that is because I am editing my userpage and will remove them once I am done. This is so all I have to do is revert to the last edit so I will be able to take off from there without problems. Please note when I am not on wikipedia that they will not be on my userpage. But when I am editing it they will be on it. Big Boss 0 14:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

    The best way to stop the images from being listed as orphaned is to place them in an article. Just go ahead and make your articles and add the images. --EarthPerson 19:39, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

    Yes I did do some editing to Kasamh Se. I'm not Indian. I like the title explorer.  :) Thanks for that. I'm glad you think I'm nice. I think the Kasmhe Se article needs some work. It should not be a gigantic description of the show. There are other forums for that. But I've not had the time to work on it. --EarthPerson 02:50, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Olympics image removal

    Hi, I noticed you have been removing the olympics rings image, Image:Olympic rings.svg, from a number of articles "per fair use policy". The image, however, isn't being used as fair use from what I can tell by looking at the image tags. The image is hosted on commons which should not have fair use images. Can you explain? VegaDark 03:05, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

    Hi. I'm basing it on this edit from User:Andrwsc. Also, looking at the green and yellow copyright boxes in the Permission section on the page for the image itself. I admit, the page is not that clear about usage, but I don't believe the image is to be used as part of the medal template. Does this make sense? --EarthPerson 03:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    Hmm...You should probably mention this on the Administrators' noticeboard and get a few opinions on this before removing any more. If it is fair use, it needs to be deleted from commons (and moved to Wikipedia). Even if it is fair use, however, it doesn't have to be removed from every page as long as there is a fair use rationale justifying it being on each page it is on. If it is a free image (looks as if the tags are conflicting, not sure on this) then it can be put back into all the pages without stipulations. VegaDark 03:47, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    Okay. Will do. If it is okay for fair use, it would be great to make part of the medal template. Thanks for the suggestion. --EarthPerson 03:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    Here's the entry on the noticeboard. Yipes! Why did I make the question so long? --EarthPerson 04:16, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    And the entry on WP:MCQ --EarthPerson 04:27, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    Ah, yes...I knew there must be a better place to bring it to than the noticeboard but I couldn't think of it, hopefully you will get a satisfactory answer there. VegaDark 04:52, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    I'm not the best authority on allowable usage, but I do remember an old Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports Olympics discussion about whether we can use them in the standard "medal infobox" or not. The consensus was that we shouldn't use the image that way. My edits have been to "enforce" the usage of the standard {{MedalTop}} templates to ensure uniform consistency for all athlete articles. If we get some expert opinion that says we can use this image in templates etc., then I would certainly welcome its addition to those standard templates, again ensuring consistency. But I will certainly continue to edit articles to make sure that the standard templates are used, with or without that image. Andrwsc 05:33, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
    Thanks. I'll keep an eye on any comments my post to WP:MCQ gets. --EarthPerson 05:36, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Silvery

    Yes, due to the correlation of edits it is certain that user:72.204.230.216 is the same person as the banned user: Harvardlaw. I'd noticed the account but hadn't spotted the specific edits you pointed out. While he has contributed positively to articles related to wrestling, his previous lack of perspective makes it difficult to assume that he is editing with a neutral point of view. Unfortunately, that makes it necessary to enforce the community ban on him. -Will Beback · † · 06:35, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

    Thanks for keeping alert. He's like the Energizer bunny. I've blocked the IP for 6 months this time. -Will Beback · † · 23:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Re: Sock attack

    Ahh, that's what this was about? The things that set people off, sometimes, heh. I'd be happy to unprotect your userpage at your leisure, or to leave it semi-protected indefinitely (no IP edits, no new account edits), if you prefer. Articles we usually try to keep free for editing, but userspace is a little different. – Luna Santin (talk) 18:07, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] virgin energy

    i noted that you deleted the page virgin energy, maybe you consider this subject nonsense, but this subject is a very serious and valid subject for wikipedia virgin energy was used for hundreds of years as evidence by the rights of kings and leaders to take virgins, and use for their own ends even when betrothed, this practice is still prevalent amongst tribes in south America and Africa. the illuminati who control all governments of the world have ensured that while laws are put in place to protect children, no laws are in place to ensure girls are virgins in western culture, while in Islam, Jewish and Indian cultures this is required In Christianity nunneries were created solely for the reason to harvest the virgin energy, by the higher ranking male members, and there are many cases of recovery and cover ups of newly born bay bodies. also in Christianity we have the virgin mary, supposedly by some esoteric force became pregnant, the reality is that virgins were used for their powers and respected, whereas it the 21st century they are consider an anachronism, however the virgin mary is a well known phenomena, meant to immortalise the power of virgins. latterly in Africa at the current time virgins are being violated in the belief that they can cure aids, phoenixeagle--Phoenixeagle 17:22, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

    Hi. I didn't actually delete the page, I marked it for deletion. It was deleted by an administrator. If you can contirbute to a related article about this subject please do so. You many want to check the items listed under the "See also" section in the Qi article. If you have enough material for an independent article, please remember to cite your sources and to avoid original research. --EarthPerson 17:50, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Ryan Mackman

    Earth Person, you wrote to me for trying to delete the page on Ryan Mackman. That is because I am Ryan Mackman. I'd prefer anything on that page pertaining to the Florida Panthers not be on there. Although I did do news broadcasting, I'm only interning with the team and am not a full time media relations rep for them. Either please erase that part of the page or delete it altogether. Thank you.

    Ryan—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 65.97.153.34 (talk • contribs) 18:06, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

    The nice thing about Wikipedia is that you can edit the Ryan Mackman article yourself. (I'm not an administrator, just an average person who edits.) If there is something there that should not be, you are free to remove it. However, please don't blank the article. You may want to take this to the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard and make an entry there. It's not that I don't believe you, but I have no way of knowing that you are who you say you are.
    However, looking over the article, it does not seem to be very neutral. Thanks. --EarthPerson 18:26, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Cornford & Cross

    Stop your insults.

    I thank you for interest but you are a little quick with your trigger finger. I was in the middle of putting up some pages about two notable UK artists when my browser crashed. My guess is that you know very little about modern UK artists and so I suggest you stick to your own areas of specialism.

    Thank you. Lulworth 18:42, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

    Hi. It was not my intent to insult anyone. Specifically, on the template was the text "This article or other page provides no meaningful content or history..." An article with only {{stub}} is certainly lacking content seemed to meet the criteria for speedy deletion. I didn't delete it, I just marked it. Please refrain from personal attacks. If you want to recreate the acticle, please do so and please remember that anyone can edit Wikipedia and there is no ownership of articles. Thanks and happy editing. --EarthPerson 18:56, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

    [edit] Image:Master Li high from falundafa org.jpg

    Thanks for uploading Image:Master Li high from falundafa org.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. — coelacan — 17:14, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

    Thanks for the note. It looks like it is being handled by folks closer to the main article. I've looked in the past for a free photo, but one is difficult to find for him.
