==Please Use Edit Summaries==
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

[edit] Snowboard Kids
I looked at his contributions to the article and they do indeed appear to be detrimental to the article. To avoid WP:3RR, I suggest that you post a message on his talk page or the article's talk page. I'll keep the article on my watchlist, but I'm hesitant to revert anything that is not vandalism. If he refuses to stop, please contact me again. AmiDaniel (Talk) 04:46, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:SlashPlus.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:SlashPlus.gif. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:05, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image licensing
I've just fixed licensing issues on about fifteen images you uploaded of characters in the game Harvest Moon: Magical Melody. The only thing that saved them from being deleted was the fact that they were being used. When uploading images from a website, please make sure that you are allowed to do so under copyright law or select a fair use category in the drop down box.
I have changed the license from {{don't know}} to {{game-screenshot}}. You will need to add a fair use rationale to each image explaining why it is needed and a more specific pointer to the source, otherwise it will be deleted in a week's time. I haven't added the appropriate templates for "no fair use rationale" in a sign of good faith.
