[edit] Speedy deletion

I noticed that you tagged the page Jazz videos for speedy deletion with the reason "spam". However, "spam" is not currently one of our criteria for speedy deletion, so I have removed the speedy deletion tag. You can use Wikipedia:Articles for deletion if you still want the article to be deleted. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 22:15, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of abandoned buildings in the United States

I just wanted to let you know why I reverted your edit. You removed the user attribution, but how I licensed the photo when I uploaded it, I required the attribution in text. See Image:Michigancentralstation.jpg for the details. Thanks. -Rkitko 07:27, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion. I like the external link idea and will go ahead and change that. I'm not aware of any conventions when that specific licensing is used, either. Thanks again! Cheers, -Rkitko 16:23, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] User link -> external link

Just curious why you made the user link in Ben oil into an external link? Not objecting, necessarily, but I don't understand the reasoning. Waitak 03:38, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

I changed the user link to an external format link because article links should go to other encyclopedia articles (imho). It might be suprising to a reader to see a normal-styled link to a person, click on it expecting an encyclopedia article on that person, but get a user page instead. --Gnewf 15:42, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, but keep in mind that it's generally not appropriate to credit wikipedia editors in the article namespace. So in most cases it's better to remove the article->user cross-namespace link unless it links someone whose WP account is relevant to the article (e.g. linking User:Larry Sanger from Larry Sanger or User:Jimbo Wales from Jimbo Wales, etc.) --Zoz (t) 10:50, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit to PHP MVC

Your recent edit to PHP MVC (diff) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to recognize and repair vandalism to Wikipedia articles.

Messed up adding copyvio template. Oops, should have previewed first! --Gnewf 05:52, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bad mood?

Grrrr, this has put me in a bad mood. -- Hoary 06:18, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Oh, I'm often in a bad mood. It will pass. Think nothing of it. Happy editing! -- Hoary 06:51, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
OK. I don't quite understand what happened. I suspect some kind of inside joke. Have a nice day. --Gnewf 06:59, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: ImageMagick

Yes, you can edit images with it, but it cannot be used interactively. See the first lines of raster graphics editor. I know one can argue about the definition of editor (e.g., see sed, the text stream editor), but I think the most common use of that word includes user interaction. Maybe the category could be renamed into "Bitmap image processing software". – gpvos (talk) 19:17, 2 July 2006 (UTC) Addition: Sed, the example which I used, apparently isn't in an editor category either; it has been placed in Category:Text-oriented programming languages... – gpvos (talk) 19:24, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
