Seen the newest irreverent edits on The Latymer School? Now I finally know how the strike happened. --AdamM 18:22, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Fantastic! I wonder who is the vigilante editor in search of the truth? By the way, nice detective work finding me! --Minglex 18:34, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Not too difficult, thanks to Nick Worth and your artistic additions to his user page. --AdamM 19:42, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anti-humor

Why did you make such a destructive edit on anti-humor? Andre (talk) 19:01, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for your kind words on my user page! I will move them to my talk page, but I appreciate it :) Nach0king 00:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists

Please don't create duplicate articles. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:34, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

  1. You mustn't move articles from one title to another by cutting and psting the contents; that loses the edit History. Moves must be done using the "Move" button.
  2. The title you're trying to change to is poor English; we normally insist on correct punctuation and capitalisation, even if publishers, record companies, etc., don't. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 18:41, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Although most often used as full stops, exclamation and question marks can stand in for any stop, including commas and semi-colons. The exclamation mark is ungrammatical here in any case ("The Pirates" is clearly not an exclamation), but given that it's there, it must be acting as a comma at most, as "in an adventure with scientists" can't grammatically follow anything else; it's not a complete sentence or even a complete clause. Prepositions shouldn't be capitalised unless they start or end a sentence. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 19:07, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Image legality questions page. Thank you. CLW 09:43, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images 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 Image legality questions page. Thank you. CLW 09:43, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Picture of Jimbo

Hi, I took and uploaded the new picture of Jimmy Wales on his user page. I mentioned to him that I didn't like the picture on his page and volunteered to take a new one. He said he had been meaning to get a better picture, and agreed to let me take a new one. I don't know if he has seen it yet or not, but I think it should be his call whether to keep it or revert to the old one. -- Samuel Wantman 19:50, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the misunderstanding. As I did not see the vandalism, it appeared as though people were reverting to the older photo. When a picture looks like vandalism, vandal patrollers need to check if the picture has been vandalized or the page has been vandalized. In your case, you reverted the wrong one. Once the offending image was removed, it is very difficult to know what your intentions were unless they were explained in the edit comment or a comment on a talk page. Your only comment was that you were reverting. Yes, I should have assumed good faith, but then so should have you. -- Samuel Wantman 20:20, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Booshyetti.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.

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.
