[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Capbadge2.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Capbadge2.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. 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 meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:45, 31 January 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fang Aili talk 20:45, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fit Hybrid

It's is completely fine to report that there may be a Fit Hybrid that is being released. It's not ok report it as a fact when the source you supply clearly says it's completely unconfirmed and that Honda has not announced anything yet. Please keep this in mind when writing anything. Do not revert edits that removed unsourced material. This is all explain very clearly in the policy WP:RS. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Also please feel encouraged to start a discussion on the subject in the talk page of the article. Thanks. Roguegeek (talk) 22:49, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

This isn't about what is going to satisfy me. It's about what satisfies Wikipedia policy. Unsourced or poorly sources material is always subject to be deleted. If you want the information you add to stick, make sure you bring sources, that you accurately report what the sources are saying, and that you properly cite those sources in the article. If you have a problem with this, I encourage you to seek help from administration. I would also suggest you look into the policies which I've listed at the top of the Fit talk page.

[edit] An Automated Message from HagermanBot

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button Image:Wikisigbutton.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! HagermanBot 16:44, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Incandescent light bulb

Your edits to the referencing system of [Incandescent light bulb] caused major inconsistencies. This was because you added brackets "[ & ]" for several references, when they shouldn't have any so that one can view the whole address of the link.

Please keep that in mind. Thanks for contributing. --Ng.j 18:08, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for trying to enlighten me, but I think I know better on this issue. Since 2005 I've been formatting references as laid out by the manual of style WP:REF. What you should have done, if you wanted to improve the article after my edits, is add the title of each link's destination page within the square brackets. I appreciate that I probably should have done it myself, but I'd already done half the tedious work and I hoped a considerate and knowledgeable editor might finish up for me. Rather than revert it.
If you genuinely want to help a lot, try learning how to use the {{cite web}} template. It comes in very handy when citing internet webpages. — Jack · talk · 18:59, Monday, 12 March 2007

Geez, a little quick on the delete button there. I was still editing the article when you put it up for speedy deletion.

I was under the impression that Ovis ammon gmelini was an Armenian Sheep. Woodsstock 16:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My RfA

  • Thanks for voting in my RfA. I've decided to withdraw my acceptance because of real WP:CIVIL concerns. I will try again later when I've proven to myself and others that my anger will no longer interfere with my abilities as a Wikipedia editor. Thanks again, and I'll see you around here shortly. :) JuJube 04:45, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual Dungeon monster-related response

That is the only thing on the internet that has information on those monster. If they delete that, no one will know info on them and their pictures will be orphaned. Rtkat3 (talk) 2:18, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization

Job and ranks should be capitalized only when used in front of a person's name and used a title; otherwise, when sitting in isolation, they are lowercase.

Wrong: The Lieutenant got a promotion; Captain Smith is now and Company Commander.
