[edit] Image:Styles-clash.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Styles-clash.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:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- 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 ☠ 04:45, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SVG highway shields
Most SVG highway shields are made in Inkscape, though some users prefer Adobe Illustrator.
SPUI's gone dormant, so shield resources are avaliable at WP:USRD/S. —Scott5114↗ 21:37, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit to Osceola Parkway
Please read the linking section of WP:USSH. Thank you. --NE2 11:21, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keeping the links with the parentheses makes it easier to find articles that use the incorrect style using "what links here". I also expanded "SR" to "State Road", which makes it clearer for the reader. --NE2 13:55, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Indian-river-lagoon.gif. 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:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - 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] Minor Edits
Hi, I'm glad to see your continuing work on Wikipedia! However, I'd like for you to be a little more careful in your use of the "minor edit" checkbox, however. Regarding your recent edit to the Statue of Liberty play page, you added an entire paragraph of text and marked it as minor. This isn't a minor edit. It looks as if you were adding back text that was deleted by a vandal, but without an edit summary (say something like "rv vandalism" if you're reverting vandalism without adding/changing anything to the page) it's hard to know. For more info, see Help:Minor edit and Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol. Thanks, and good luck continuing to contribute! --Rodzilla (talk) 07:52, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Altonbrown.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Altonbrown.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. 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. MECU≈talk 00:46, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Bafta
Bafta or BAFTA? The BBC News has it has Bafta... which is correct do you know? Kneale 13:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
Had an email of the BBC:
Thank you for your email.
It is the style of BBC News Online to spell all acronyms that are read like a word (Unesco, Aids, Nato and Unep) in lower case. Acronyms that have each letter sounded (BBC, IPCC and FBI) are written in upper case.
This style is intended to help the reader scan the page. It is adopted by a number of publishing groups and is not unique to us.
Regards BBC News Website http://news.bbc.co.uk/
Just incase you're interested! Kneale 01:54, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
I'm not arsed if BAFTA or Bafta is used! I was just passing it on just in case you were interested Kneale 03:08, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your opinion is sought about the Frank Caliendo article
An anonymous editor keeps adding what is in my opinion, extremely trivial information to the Frank Caliendo article. I am soliciting the opinion of other editors who have edited this article about the appropriateness of this "information" to the article. Please review the details at Talk:Frank Caliendo#Consensus about inclusion of specific football predictions and if you desire, add your thoughts to this section.

[edit] Matthew Joseph White
When I heard the news story I looked under Matt White and saw no article for him. Also I saw no mention of him under the two other Matt White articles so I started the article, however they put a merge tag on the one I started along with the one you started. Obviously they have to be merged. Please feel free to comment on what you think the more correct title would be and then we can merge under that title. Thanks in advance.

- What title do you thin is better? Quadzilla99 11:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- For now I'll do it real sloppily and put the old article on the new article's talk page and redirect later I'll fix it. Quadzilla99 11:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Ok it's done, the info from Matthew Joseph White is on Matthew J White's talk page. If someone wants to they can incorporate appropriate parts of it into the article, I don't really have much of interest to do so but it will be there in case someone does. Quadzilla99 11:38, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 300 Edits
Maybe you were new and unaware of this, but the use of the minor edit checkbox is for very small edits, like spelling or spacing, etc. Many people do not pay attention to minor edits, expecting that sort of thing. There are some deceptive editors out there who will mark as minor some fairly drastic edits, and it won't be caught immediately. I am not remotely saying you are one of these people, but understand that an edit beyond the simple stuff needs to be added as a normal edit. Thought I'd save you from some future headaches and misunderstandings. Cheers!Arcayne 12:54, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- Please not the tag above the plot. We are trying to trim the plot done, not add to it. Wikipedia is not a substitution for watching the film, so plots should not get into lots of details about what is going on. BIGNOLE (Question?) (What I do) 12:15, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
