[edit] Advertisements
Hi! I had to delete the Kream King article as an advertisement and as having limited if any notability outside your local area. If you can establish the restaurant's widespread notability and avoid using "adspeak," please feel to recreate it. Thanks and happy new year! - Lucky 6.9 20:09, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and has been reverted or removed. 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. Thanks. Mark1 20:47, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] My User Page
Thanks for the small add on my user page, I enjoyed it! --Winter 23:29, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Electric Fetus
Hi, nice work on the Electric Fetus article. I had to remove a couple of lines because they didn't conform to a formal encyclopedic tone. --Muchness 01:15, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Goo image
In Image:OriginalPhotoforGoo.jpg which you tagged NoRightsReserved, where did you get that image, and who was the photographer and when or where did they release their rights? (Presuming it wasn't you yourself!) -- Kevin Ryde 21:48, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
- I guessed that might have been it. (Could get almost any two people in the back of a car and reproduce that scene :-). I think you will want to change the license tag to fair use or some such, and cite the source, I doubt I'll be the only one to wonder. Personally I would think, unfortunately, it can't be used. Even if the photographer has gone to the big dark room in the sky and the picture is sprayed around the internet I'd imagine there's a publisher or photo library somewhere who owns it. -- Kevin Ryde 22:29, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

- Without meaning to be provocative, I dropped the tag to unverified and added the blog URLs. I'm pretty sure norights shouldn't be the tag, but someone else will have to assess what it ought to be. -- Kevin Ryde 23:07, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Yes, it's true, you need specially strengthened boardies or the sun will burn them away in just minutes and you'll be left standing there in the buff! :-) (Actually though what you need most is good sunscreen and a rashie if you're at the beach in the middle of the day.) -- Kevin Ryde 00:52, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hiho!
Thanks for the thought, but I can't support vandalizm. I appreciate your kindness though. Ardenn 02:12, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] My User Page
Hello. Thanks for commenting on my user page! My user page is written in third person as a sort of parody of a wikipedia aritcle following the wikipedia rule about avoiding self refrence. It's an article about me if you will.
I'd like to request that you please sign and date any comments you leave on my talk page from now on for historical accuracy using --~~~~. Thank you. --The_stuart 04:29, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photos
Hi. I noticed your photo of the COWS' star on the First Avenue wall. Do you have any other photos showing the other stars? In particular, I'm looking for one that could be added to the Arcwelder article. Thanks, dfg 19:55, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use images on your user page
I've removed a number of album covers and logos that, by law, can only be used in encyclopedia space. Let me know if you have any questions on Wikipedia policy in this respect. Ral315 (talk) 02:06, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- The problem is, we don't know who's going to sue and who isn't. Record companies could conceivably get annoyed at your usage and sue- after all, they would own the rights to that image. And they likely wouldn't sue you, they'd sue the Wikimedia Foundation, which at this point would be bankrupted by any major lawsuit. The reason the McLaren photos were deleted was because you provided invalid licensing- the template on the page said that you had taken the photos, but the page said you didn't. The Dark Side of the Moon one is fine, however, because it's not an image of the cover- rather, it's an image of a prism similar to the one used on the Pink Floyd cover.

[edit] Music
Hey. I'm doing a survey to find the most liked songs of all time. So far I have over 300 songs in the list. I was hoping that you would be willing to contribute your top ten.

[edit] ======================================================
Hi, I'm the anon user that inputted all the stuff into The Process of Weeding Out by Black Flag, just wanted to srop by and say that glad you liked it, all the other stuff I wrote for the albums got deleted, perhaps you could take a look at it and let me know why you think that was? My email is guy@lunch-break.co.uk
[edit] Hi back
Thanks for the "rule insanely" remark. I'm flattered. I just listened to Loveless about an hour or so ago. :) As for your question, I prefer Sonic Youth (Daydream Nation, Goo, and Dirty especially) out of all of those... But I noticed your affinity for 80s hardcore punk rock... One of my favorite eras/genres/periods of music ever. :) Thorns Among Our Leaves 02:07, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

- P.S., I also like The Velvet Underground some, too. "Heroin" is a great song. And I don't have Zen Arcade yet, sadly. Can't find it anywhere. All I have is NDR and Landspeed Record. Thorns Among Our Leaves 02:08, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed on both charges. Minor Threat are very brutal; as is Landspeed Record. Crazy stuff. Thorns Among Our Leaves 02:05, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Eraserheadscreensh.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Eraserheadscreensh.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. Durin 18:10, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use image use
Fair use images are not permitted to be used in userboxes, nor any other non-main article namespace page. Please see Wikipedia:Fair use criteria item #9. If you have any other questions about this, I'd be happy to answer.
Also, you have a rather significant number of fair use images on your userpage, in violation of this same policy. --Durin 20:53, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- You were made aware of the policy at Wikipedia:Fair use criteria item #9 and chose to violate it any way by re-inserting Image:Eraserheadscreensh.jpg into Template:User Eraserhead. This constitutes vandalism. If you continue to do this, you may be temporarily blocked. I have reverted your re-insertion of the images, and removed the fair use images from your userpage [1] that I mentioned earlier. Again, do not reinsert fair use images onto userpages or templates in violation of this policy. If you have questions about this or are uncertain as to the status of an image and whether or not you can use it, by all means feel free to ask. However, simply re-inserting these images or adding other fair use images to userpages or templates may result in a temporary block. --Durin 00:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Image:Eraserhead.jpg is an image of a dvd cover. As such, I have retagged it as {{dvd-cover}}. The original author retains rights, and the image may only be used under terms of fair use here. I have removed the image from the userbox, and tagged it with {{orfud}} because the image is not used in any main namespace articles. --Durin 21:50, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- You do have rights to whatever creative effort went into the creation of the photograph of the DVD cover. Additionally, the creators of the movie Eraserhead maintain rights to the DVD cover. You have the power only to release your rights, and can not release theirs. As such, the image must be used here under terms of fair use. --Durin 00:10, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

- I have seen the movie. Saw it shortly after it came to video actually. Rather amazing movie. Depressing as all hell, but amazing nonetheless.
- As to the copyright problems; just taking a picture of something doesn't mean you gain all rights to it. Let's say you took a photograph of the Coca-Cola logo. Does that mean you can then go make a million shirts with the logo and sell them? Coca-cola would be on your doorstep faster than you could put one of the t-shirts on. You do have rights to the creative effort needed to create the photograph, but Coca-cola would absolutely retains rights to their logo. Similarly, David Lynch and/or Libra Films retain rights to imagery from the movie, including the cover of the DVD package. Now, since you took the photo you have rights, but they have rights too. For instance, they could not use your photo unless you gave them permission to do so. Similarly, you can not use the photo unless they give permission to do so. You both have rights, and both sets of rights have to be released under a free license in order for the image to be usable outside of the main article namespace here on Wikipedia.
- I know you're a good guy in this, and are trying to do the right thing. I really appreciate that! --Durin 00:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for starting the Vex page. I added summaries of each pedal. Tremspeed 08:44, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
He's a testy dude. I posted a tongue-in-cheek comment on his myspace page demanding clips of the then-prototype Box of Rock and he deleted it! I have a sparkle kanjii FF! Really want a Wooly Mammoth next. Tremspeed 10:05, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Get lots of fluids. Hope it's better soon -- Samir धर्म 00:40, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Some image problems
I retagged Image:Nirvana2764startupwindow.JPG as {{software-screenshot}} since it is a screenshot of copyrighted software. I've also tagged it and Image:Z Vex Logo Inverted.jpg as orphaned fair use images since neither is used in a main namespace article. You've done good work on tagging a number of other images, and I thank you for that. I'm just correcting a few errors I see. --Durin
[edit] What you talkin' 'bout, Tom??
I saw your message on the reference desk and thought I ought to ask what's up? I have no experience in stuff like this but if you want to talk about what's been bothering you, I'm willing to listen. --Seans Potato Business 02:49, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] something random
Hey. Well, so now u know I like emo, along with a bunch of punk rock bands, with the exception of the Beatles and Bob Dylan. 1) Why do you want to committ suicide? (I saw the question about the gun when I went to check if somebody else bothered to help me with my chemistry question). I just want to know, cuz I actually thought about it too. I almost slit my wrists when I was really depressed, and now I just want to know what drives other people to do it? It's really creepy when you think about. but when you find that somebody else did or wanted to do it, its somehow comforting in a weird and sick and twisted way. I talked with my two best friends, both used to cut, one actually landed on the psych ward, because his parents were weird like that.
and
2) Can you list and briefly explain all types of metal rock? My friend tried explaining them to me (a kick-ass die-hard pixies fan) and I lost count after 15. And its all confusing when you dont see it written and you just hear about it.
and lastly
3) Rant about emo. What's so bad about it? Maybe you'll actually give me a reason not to listen to it (but AFI, well the first two albums, are so addictive!).
and plz reply to my email kasia21_pl@yahoo.com partly cuz I'm not a wikipedia afficionado like you are. I use it as a primary source of research, but my love stops there. ;)
Rock on and peace out

[edit] Hey there
Hi NIRVANA2764. I saw your question at the science reference desk. I don't know what to say, except that I've been somewhere near where you might be now, and I finally sought professional help, and the help helped. I don't wish to intrude, but you can e-mail me anytime if you want, I enabled my account. Being a jazz freak and having read your userboxes, I want to know more. Please take care of yourself. ---Sluzzelin 06:05, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Free Your Mind...And Your Ass Will Follow
Hi Tom, not sure why you think that the sentence you removed from this article has NPOV issues. It was just an attempt to explain the clever ambiguity in the title, and the way that this is reinforced by the way the gatefold sleeve is designed. Rather than remove can you suggest a better way to express the same thing? Cheers, Ben--Bwmodular 09:18, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Nose Picking
In response to your question about the photo I posted under "Nose Picking," no it isn't really a candid shot, and I updated the image description to reflect that. Sorry to have concerned you! Harmanx 12:37, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
