[edit] Freeware Lists

I applaud your work on removing the list of commercial -> freeware -releases from [Abandonware] article and putting it on the [List of freeware games]. For months I've thought this should be done but lacked the spine and muscle to do so myself. Good effort! evktalo 11:22, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome, it just had to be done. That list was really confusing there. It still needs some cleanup, but I guess it's a good step. Sega381 03:13, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Paganitzu.png

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Paganitzu.png. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images lacking such an explanation 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. ResurgamII 22:47, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, added the rationale, to it and other images. I hope it's what it was supposed to be. Sega381 03:52, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Commander Keen series

applause for working on the commander keen articles. they are most important.-- ExpImptalkcon 10:10, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, they were in need of cleanup and some expansion.Sega381 12:56, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

As another Keen fan, I'm glad to see more people working on improving the articles.

One piece of comment though; the last 150-or so sequential updates (not counting a few updates that got inbetween) were all made by you, turning the article's history into a big mess. Some of them just added a comma or exchanged 2 sentences or something other tiny. All these could've easily been a few big updates. Of course this isn't as important as the actual article, but it's still nice for others to be able to check what happened easily. You can use the "Show preview" and "Show changes" buttons to see what looks better, and what still needs changing. I personally sometimes simply drop everything in a file on my computer, work on something over a longer time, only upload when I'm done. Of course when somebody updates in the meantime, you may (if the edit wasn't vandalism or something) have to incorporate those changes manually.

I hope I don't sound too negative; I don't mean to be, just trying to help improve the History aspect of Wikipedia as well. :) Retodon8 19:19, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry, I was actually kinda embarassed about that when I realized it. It's just that the moments I have to work on the articles are quite erratic, leading to multiple, small edits. But I'm working on that :). Thanks for the comments.Sega381 23:05, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Nope, sorry.... just was helping to make a more coherent entry. I'm not really informed on the subject, and I don't have an account... If I can help you in any other way, just tell me.Sega381 17:54, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
