I changed his birth date so it is before his death date :) Not sure of the truth but it seemed more correct. Cheers, Ansell 06:11, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Refactoring user page - Removing_ warnings
Hi, removal of warnings is not generally considered a good idea--A Y Arktos\talk 23:12, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Warning Removal
Your talk page is intended to serve as a place to discuss your contributions. It ends up being a sort of a history of the work you've done and the conflicts you've been in, or the praise you've received. It's alright to archive comments or warnings, but blanking your talk page is not considered acceptable, as it is not yours. Please read WP:USERPAGE and WP:TALK. Please instead contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, and please don't continue to blank other users' comments. -Kukini 16:45, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] User talk page etiquette
Regarding user talk pages, it is best to not delete notices on talk pages, but instead, to archive them. You will find how to do this here [1], under "When pages get too long." Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages is often interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil. This can become an issue in arbitration or other formal proceedings. For this reason, if your deletion of notices and concerns on your user talk page is to keep the "clutter" down, I suggest that you instead create archives for these messages. I would be happy to help you do just that if you ask me to. I note no evidence of actual archives of your talk page, despite the fact that when you delete the warnings, you call this behavior archiving. -Kukini 16:58, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- I see that...but there are numerous notices from non-bots...such as this [2] that you have also deleted instead of archiving. Why not just create archives and dump them into there? It would make things much more transparent in nature. Just a suggestion. --Kukini 19:32, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Cobb & Co. coach No 48.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Cobb & Co. coach No 48.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation 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.

[edit] AfD Nomination: Proteus (WAM-V)
An editor has nominated the article Proteus (WAM-V) for deletion, under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the nomination (also see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on why the topic of the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome: participate in the discussion by editing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Proteus (WAM-V). Add four tildes like this ˜˜˜˜ to sign your comments. You can also edit the article Proteus (WAM-V) during the discussion, but do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top of the article), this will not end the deletion debate.

[edit] Your comment on IFD about Image:Picture(5)_new.jpg
Hi. On IFD, you asked that Image:Picture(5)_new.jpg not be deleted so that it could be used in Piccadilly Circus tube station. I have uploaded this image to Commons as Image:Piccadilly Circus tube station.jpg. Commons images can be used transparently on Wikipedia - you can add this image to an article just as you would any image stored locally. Please feel free to add this image to Piccadilly Circus tube station if you so desire. Thanks. --BigDT 04:12, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Request for you opinion: Image:Sketch-4race-transparent2.png
I noticed you had some well thought out arguments about AverageIQ-Map-World.png being deleted, do you think you could weigh in on the deletion debate over this image? --futurebird 21:05, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
