Well done on creating your first Wikipedia article, Shea High School. I'm sure it will be the first of many!--File Éireann 14:34, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:3091737 l.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:3091737 l.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

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

[edit] Empty articles

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. - Lucky 6.9 23:56, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chris Crocker Myspace

The article Chris Crocker Myspace has been or soon will be deleted from Wikipedia. This happened because the article seems to be about a subject but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. You might also want to read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. See Wikipedia:Verifiability and WP:BIO. NawlinWiki 20:40, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Gottii.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Gottii.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. --Slowking Man 14:58, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Tila Nguyen

This is the only warning you will receive.
Your recent vandalism will not be tolerated. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --LBMixPro <Speak|on|it!> 05:52, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Oh, sorry. That was supposed to go to User:67.43.193.102, who wrote something stupid about Tila. --LBMixPro <Speak|on|it!> 06:36, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Why did you remove the {{sprotect2}} from Execution of Saddam Hussein? Khoikhoi 09:16, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Only admins can protect pages. When you originally added the tag, it wasn't protected (that's why it was removed). However, now the page is protected (see log), and the tag is necessary. I am an admin, and when pages are protected, they need tags that say so. When they aren't, they shouldn't have them. Khoikhoi 09:27, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

My fault, didnt realize it. im kinda new so i must edited it by accident.

No problem. :-) Please note that it hasn't been getting any vandalism since the page was protected. Khoikhoi 09:34, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Rubus.jpg

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

[edit] Re: Protection

You are not an administrator. Only administrators can protect pages. Please contact an administrator in order to have a page protected. Real96 03:21, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

You shouldn't have placed any page protection templates upon a page, unless an administrator protected the page first. In order to protect a page, please go to WP:Request_for_page_protection. Real96 03:25, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Real96 is correct, Mcoop. If you put protection templates on pages, you're going to end up accused of impersonating an admin, which is usually handled with a block. Have a look at Wikipedia:Protection policy if you're confused, or feel free to ask me any questions. In the meantime, I'm semi-protecting the page (for real), because you are correct that the anon vandalism is out of control. | Mr. Darcy talk 04:06, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Because Google, the New York Times, and CNN seem to have nothing on his death. Funny... Natalie 03:43, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Minor edits

[1] Please remember to mark your edits as minor when (and only when) they genuinely are minor edits (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one (and vice versa) is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'. Thanks! --Mel Etitis (Talk) 20:02, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shea High School‎

  1. Do not remove temploates such as {{Notability}} and {{unreferenced}} unless you've provided the required information.
  2. Do not revert other editors' copy-editing and formatting out of pique.

Both these things are disruptive, and can lead to your being blocked from editing. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:01, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools and Wikipedia:Schools for guidelines. There are millions of schools in the world, and we can't have an article on all of them; most are not notable for an encyclopædia artcile, and it's not clear to me why this one is — but I'm willing to be convinced. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 21:43, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Creek Rage Crew

Got it, thanks. NawlinWiki 04:01, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Shea High School

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:38, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Removing legitimate warnings, without any response, doesn't help your position, and may make a block more likely. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:44, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

I don't quite understand your message, but what you did at the page was remove the {{unreferenced}} template (which should be placed at the bottom of an article) without adding any references. This isn't the first warning you've had about disruptive editing. If you're in doubt, ask — but never remove templates without good cause. --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:44, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
When archiving, you should leave messages, especially those in continuing discussions, for longer than a few minutes... --Mel Etitis (Talk) 10:49, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
