[edit] Senators
GREAT work with the infoboxes! I know how boring it can be methodically going through and standardizing parts of their pages (note how all the Congress succession boxes read the same - that was me a few months ago), but don't worry, people who love order really notice this stuff. If you feel really ambitious, have a go at some of the ex-Senators :D! Thanks for your work, and hope you enjoy Wikipedia. Harro5 02:09, August 15, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the help.
Implementing my Infobox:Senator idea. It got pretty tedious doing it alone; much appreciated. Shem(talk) 09:36, 16 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Tremendous work!
Wow! I'm VERY impressed with the work on the Ron Kind article! Here's your first barnstar!
[edit] National Atlas maps
Hello Rushadthomas. I wanted to point out that I have moved your map of Delaware from the introductory paragraph of the Michael N. Castle article to the "See also" section, along with a link to the article on the district itself. Your map is a nice addition to the article, and frankly looks better than the one on the district's article, but seems to me to fit better in the body of the article than in the intro. Can you figure out a way to replace the existing map on the United States House of Representatives, Delaware At Large article with yours? I mean the actual map, not the link. I know it is public domain. stilltim 11:44, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Rc photo bio.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rc photo bio.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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 Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Chowbok 22:40, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Janet Napolitano.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

[edit] Copyright
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.
Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."
You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Jonathunder 14:41, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- Please, sir, review the policies linked above before making any more edits. I would hate to have to block you for copyright issues, but these are important. If you have questions, please ask. Jonathunder 21:39, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Democratic Governors Association Wiki-table
I was wondering if you would be willing to fully update the wiki-table you added to the Democratic Governors Association back in January, 2006, to reflect the results of the November, 2006 elections. I would do it myself, but I am not well-versed on wiki-table formatting. --TommyBoy 00:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Nevermind, I got another user to do it. --TommyBoy 07:03, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Ted Strickland
The image you have uploaded of Ted Strickland is not a work of the United States government and has been deleted as a copyvio and for lacking adequate information to prove otherwise. Unfortunately this is not the first time I have had to post on your talk page about this lack of concern on your part of image copyrights, and I see that others have posted their own warnings above. This, in conjunction with the fact that you have refused to attempt to correct this problem or talk about it, means that this will be your last warning. The next time you upload a copyvio image to Wikipedia, you risk being blocked from editing. --tomf688 (talk - email) 23:45, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Rushadthomas: please ask for advice about uploading again any image you uploaded before. You can do that here on this page. Please don't just upload it, though, as copyright is taken seriously. Jonathunder 23:58, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
