[edit] Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-05-02 Chuck Berry

Aloha. I have chosen to mediate Wikipedia:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-05-02 Chuck Berry. User:Dr. Gonzo has left on wikibreak, so I'm not sure how much progress we can make without him. —Viriditas | Talk 05:11, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Please see User talk:Dr.Gonzo for an update on mediation status. —Viriditas | Talk 01:45, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Hey, Mark, thanks for the message, and no, you're not bothering me at all. Just to be clear, I'm not entirely sure it's a good idea to give up on mediation just yet. Would you be willing to give it a go for another week? The reason I ask, is because I don't think the issue is resolved. You don't exactly have to do anything just yet, but if you could be willing to negotiate with Dr.Gonzo, if and when he decides the issue is resolved (along with you of course) I would really appreciate it. It would be great if we could get the both of you to come to some kind of an agreement. What do you think, is it worth your time? —Viriditas | Talk 09:23, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Hi. Well, I think that as long as you are open for mediation, the ball is in Dr.Gonzo's court. I also think we should take this slow. I'll try and add some more notes to the talk page and ask for your comments when I'm finished. You can take a look at some of my notes on Wikipedia talk:Mediation Cabal/Cases/2006-05-02 Chuck Berry. —Viriditas | Talk 07:17, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image tagging for Image:F-knoll01.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:F-knoll01.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the source and creator of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 04:08, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Note, I have also listed this image as having no source information. Please add such information else it could be deleted after 7 days. Thanks, Localzuk^(talk) 19:07, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Kilborn1996.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Kilborn1996.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. Localzuk^(talk) 18:48, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I don't quite understand your confrontational tone. (I don't play warcraft for one...) Second, I believe that the image doesn't add anything to the articles in question as you can't really show an example of 'pausing the show' in a single snapshot. I think that it can be replaced for the article about Kilborn with an image of him that has a free license.

Finally, I would remind you to remain civil and refrain from personal attacks when talking to people.

(PS. bear in mind I have tagged about 200 images in the last 36 hours, so even though I may have them right for 99% of them I may be wrong on one or two).-Localzuk^(talk) 19:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your age

Mark Farinas upgraded to Mark 2000 on the eve of the second Chistian millenia

That would be 31^st December, 1000, making you over a thousand years old! Wow! That's impressive. Perhaps you even merit your own article, given your unusually long lifespan.

The addition gave no sources or references, but more to the point, it is incredibly parochial. This species breeds across the northern hemisphere, and, like other beach-nesting waders, is adversely affected by human activity everywhere, despite legal protection. It is difficult to see why the beaches in one town in one country are special, and I don't think we want this to turn into a list of hundreds of beaches all over the world where this bird is threatened.

I've left it for now, to give you a chance to respond, but imho, unless there really is a reason why SF is different, it would be better to make this into a general comment on the threats to a beach nesting bird. jimfbleak 06:35, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
