Hi everyone!

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

• Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
• Multi-Licensing Guide
• Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Burger

I, Suffice, award you a cheeseburger for your work on the cheeseburger article: -- User:Suffice, Mar.13, 2005

• Thanks! :D knoodelhed 06:22, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Area code stubs

Hi Scott - I see you're dealing with a few US area codes at the moment... when you do, could you give them {{US-geo-stub}} rather than just {{stub}}? It'll save us stub sorters a little bit of work! :) Thanks, Grutness|^hello? 06:20, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• No problem. I'll remember that. ;) knoodelhed 06:24, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bodyboarding corrections ;-)

Thanks Scott, for writting down the proper name o Michael Epplestan on the bodyboarding article. I was writing it very late at night and I did a lot of mistakes, but I was hoping someone would correct these, as is always the case in this wonderfull project, the WikiPedia: the community always get things right. I saw your user page and found that you are interested in Sci-fi and also Capoeira... As a brazilian I did also like Capoeira, did you practice it? I am more into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but I have Capoeira in a very high steem, since it´s a beutiful form of fight from Brazil. And I´m a big fan of sci-fi and extreme sports (of course, I´m a very mad, go for it bodyboarder as you could expect reading my contributions!)(I apologize for the poor english!)

[edit] Greek text

I'm not sure what happened, but your most recent edit appears to have munged the Greek text in an article (See [1]). Don't worry, someone's already fixed it, but you might want to check your setup. -- The Anome June 28, 2005 08:46 (UTC)

Do you use IE for Mac? Then please change to another browser (for example Firefox), as the IE for Mac destroys all unicode characters. As en: has been converted to unicode with the recent Mediawiki update the number of articles containing non-ascii characters is increasing fast. andy 11:22, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

I've noticed a warning in the edit/compose screens from IE5/MacClassic, which does not appear from Netscape 7.02, which I can run on my creaky old machine. I'll run that if I find myself needing to edit anything with non-ASCII content.. knoodelhed 18:35, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Interested in an L.A.-area Wiki meetup?

It appears as though L.A. has never had a Wiki meetup. Would you be interested in attending such an event? If so, checkout User:Eric Shalov/Wikimeetup.

[edit] Police shootings at the 2001 EU-summit

Hi. I moved the section you contributed to Self defense and defense of others to that articles talk page, to seek a consensus as to whether it properly fit the tone of the article. I have no strong objection to it, and I think it's well written, but I'm trying to work all the common law articles into more generically informative pieces not focused on particular events (except where they were important in forming the law). Please make any reply on the article's talk page. Cheers! -- BD2412 ^talk 21:06, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Birthday

Happy Birthday! Here's a tasty Birthday cake. Best wishes to you! Hope you enjoy your day. Now, get on out there and have some fun! ;)

[edit] Memory Alpha

You up for the job? I'm not a bot man really (i.e. i have the programming skills of a monkey). I try and make sure any featured episodes mentioned on the portal have been improved before listing them...although i need to watch the DS9 linked with the featured quote. Hmm, i'm slippping.

[edit] Nearer my god to thee

Hi I was just wondering if you were going to create the Nearer, my God, to Thee article or if you just made a mistake with the redirect? Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 06:15, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

No problem. I thought that perhaps the redirect was supposed to be the article. Done that my self. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 06:45, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Check1005.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Check1005.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then 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 media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 20:24, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for notifying that. It has been tagged properly according to given information. Can you add these lines, whatever you written to me on the image page. Thank you. Shyam ^(T/C) 22:15, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Note from concerned browser FYI, I work at a bank, and the information left on teh check is enough for me to simply steal the identity. I suggest immediate removal.

[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 13:48, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sunday Times Golden Globe Race

Hi, I thought you might be interested to know that the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race article is up for FAC. If you like, I'd welcome your comments on the FAC review page. — Johan the Ghost _seance 16:46, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Tony hawk crossbone.JPG)

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Tony hawk crossbone.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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. —Bkell (talk) 06:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I believe that image was brought in from another language Wikipedia, so it should be okay to put back with the article. knoodelhed 06:58, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

The problem is not the source of the image. The problem was that the image is a screenshot of a video game, used under a claim of fair use, which was not illustrating the video game itself (and thus could not qualify for a fair-use claim). So I removed it from Tony Hawk. Now the image is orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles. Wikipedia does not allow fair-use images unless they are being used in articles, so I'm letting you know that the image is subject to deletion in seven days. Let me know if you have any questions. —Bkell (talk) 07:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Happy Birthday

Just a happy Birthday message to you, Scott Sanchez, from the Wikipedia Birthday Committee! Have a great day!

Havea great day :) -Ladybirdintheuk 05:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

• Thank you, ^_^ and you do the same. knoodelhed 15:38, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question

How do you block a user?Sonic34 13:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)Sonic 34

If there is a problem, you should contact an administrator. see: Help:Contents. knoodelhed 15:51, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Star of Life

It's been a long time since you asked the question, but I responded (or attempted to) to your question on the Star of Life talk page. Not sure if you're still interested or if you'd already ascertained the information, but it wasn't in the article that I found, so I may endeavor to add it later. Jcsimpson 19:29, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Capital Punishment

Calling capital punishment homicide is POV in my opinion, and I reverted your edits as such. JCO312 05:36, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Servatius

Thank you for contributing this stub, which I have announced at the Germany announcement page. If you add more articles on Germany-related topics, please announce them there and consider joining the Germany project. Could you add some references to the article, so it can be verified? Thank you, and happy editing, Kusma (討論) 14:50, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

As I note at Talk:Robert Servatius, I was largely guided by a stub in another language, apparently the only reference to Servatius at the time on the whole project. QV for further. knoodelhed 16:56, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Guaifenesin

Replied on the Guaifenesin talk page. HTH, Fvasconcellos 17:42, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Germans in the South West Pacific theatre

Hi Scott, I agree that the German subs are worth mentioning in the article, but all of the German raiding ships left the area before Japan entered the war, and therefore before there was a "South West Pacific Area (command)". Suppy/support services aside, there there were no joint operations between the Japanese and Germans/Italians that I'm aware of, although a couple of Italian subs and U-862 were handed over to the Japanese in Singapore/Penang when the Italian and German surrenders occurred.

[edit] V981-79

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article V981-79, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. ✤ JonHarder ^talk 00:44, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
