[edit] Welcome from Redwolf24

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. We as a community are glad to have you and thank you for creating a user account! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

Yes some of the links appear a bit boring at first, but they are VERY helpful if you ever take the time to read them.

Remember to place any articles you create into a category so we don't get orphans.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, please be sure to sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, or three tildes (~~~) for just your name. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome.

[edit] Self Portrait / McGuinn

Unfortunately, the story McGuinn tells about "Self Portrait" isn't accurate. McGuinn and the Byrds were recruited to work at the first "New Morning" session.

http://www.bjorner.com/DSN01790%201970.htm#DSN01810

The correct chronology is reported in Clive Davis' autobiography and in Heylin's original "Behind The Shades." McGuinn believed he was going to work on "Self Portrait" because he bought into the well-circulated myth that Dylan didn't start working on "New Morning" until after "Self Portrait" was released, but the Columbia session records have been dug out and published; they show that Dylan was working on the "New Morning" songs as early as March 1970, and all but one of the "New Morning" sessions took place before "Self Portrait" was released. Cf the Bjorner site linked above, Heylin's "Recording Sessions," Dundas' "Tangled (Up In Tapes)." Monicasdude 00:41, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Greatest White Wonder

There's no evidence that the "Greatest White Wonder" Landau mentioned ever existed, except as a title somebody wrote on a plain-cover bootleg LP. (And here were lots of those around in the early 1970s.) It doesn't show up as verified in any reliable Dylan discographies; nobody's turned up a copy, and the Google hits all trace back to Landau. Whatever Landau heard, there was a bootleg called "Looking Back" available in metro New York in early/spring 1971, and even that one may not have been the first.

[edit] Dylan chronology....

I hear what you're saying, but chronologies are for release dates, not recording dates. Perhaps mentioning in the preceeding album's article (recorded, that is) that Dylan recorded "The Basement Tapes" with The Band in 1967 (in Blonde on Blonde for instance). This way those who don't want to lose the chronology of the recordings can easily find a link to the next recorded project, even if it was released in thirty years later.

[edit] Mass reverts

That's not an actual rule, you just made that up. Furthermore, you seem to have a huge problem making mass reverts judging by the complaints you've been getting on your talk page, all of which have been deleted by you (they still show up in the history page). Whatever, if you want to indulge in your own obsessive compulsive behavior, knock yourself out.

[edit] Slane Hill

You created the Slane Hill article. I have proposed that it be merged into the Slane article. Please feel free to express you opinion of this proposal at Talk:Slane. -- Patleahy 02:37, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:1985-SunCity.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:1985-SunCity.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.

[edit] Butkus Photo

Please provie a fair use rational and source for the Dick Butkus photo you downloaded. Quadzilla99 17:45, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Photo17.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Photo17.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. Yonatan talk 14:13, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
