[edit] Teensy Eensy Images

Why did I restrict my images to "non-commercial use"? Because Creative Commons normally give the author that option (and I am allowed to create my own license terms).

As a compromise, I will make the images very tiny for Wikipedia use to comply with the public domain policy.

Cheers

[edit] Userbox Migration

Hello! I noticed your script was migrating a very large number of userboxes lately. I wanted to suggest not trying to move every userbox, especially if they do not seem to be causing any sort of controversy. If someone migrated an uncontrovercial box and did not bypass its redirects, you might want to just move the userbox back to its original location instead of finishing their migration, which saves time and reduces headaches. It's my opinon that migrating userboxes which are not causing problems runs contrary to the purpose of WP:UM, which is to reduce conflicts and avoid starting new arguments. Thanks! —AySz88\^-^ 22:51, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you, though I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing; I guess I should give an example. I noticed that you moved a few interest boxes, like a Magic: The Gathering box and a D&D box. Those are probably harmless (or somewhat useful) enough to leave alone, unless I missed some sort of big incident involving those sort of boxes.
Happy editing. :) —AySz88\^-^ 23:25, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A while ago

... you(r script) marked Image:Queen of the North.jpg as a fair use replaceable image. I'm not exactly sure where a replacement can be found, as the ship has sunk. If you could impart some insight as to your rationale, I'd be greatly obliged. Thanks! theProject 05:05, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Automated message to bot owners

As a result of discussion on the village pump and mailing list, bots are now allowed to edit up to 15 times per minute. The following is the new text regarding bot edit rates from Wikipedia:Bot Policy:

Until new bots are accepted they should wait 30-60 seconds between edits, so as to not clog the recent changes list and user watchlists. After being accepted and a bureaucrat has marked them as a bot, they can edit at a much faster pace. Bots doing non-urgent tasks should edit approximately once every ten seconds, while bots who would benefit from faster editing may edit approximately once every every four seconds.

Also, to eliminate the need to spam the bot talk pages, please add Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard to your watchlist. Future messages which affect bot owners will be posted there. Thank you. --Mets501 04:41, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adina Howard

Just wanted to inform you I upgraded your article on Adina Howard to a B class. I am hoping you can fill in more details of her biography - her life, early years, etc. - so that the article can move onto GA or A class. --Ozgod 04:46, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help needed

The table on Mazharul Islam looks ugly to me. It's difficult to access, the size is intimidating, the last column that contains comments is way too wide, the projects coulmn or the second column doesn't project the projects strongly, and a grouping of the years may do it much good. Can you give a hand there? I have been advised by User:Real96 to take help from WP:TABLE, but since I am quite illiterate on this code thing it is not helping (I can steal codes from others fine, but writing or fixing it is way too scary for me).

[edit] Redirects

I have been fixing links to Peruvian nuevo sol which actually hit a redirect first, such as Sol (currency). I checked out your redirect page, and I found that you list "Peruvian nuevo sol" (which is not a redirect), "Sol (currency)" (which is), and "Sol (currency)(disambiguation)" (which does not exist and probably never should). Given that "Peruvian nuevo sol" is not a redirect, you may want to remove it, but perhaps I do not understand the goal of your redirect page. --Cromwellt|talk 20:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
