Does "on the wrong lane for TastyCakes" says anything to you? Yours, El_C 16:07, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

mm no sorry, I've never heard that before. Should I have? TastyCakes 16:13, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
I love TastyCakes, but I think I mistook you for someone else. Sorry 'bout that! El_C 16:16, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
A cyber-doppelganger... how flattering. TastyCakes 20:08, 1 September 2005 (UTC)
It's my friend Jason from San Diego, I don't think he made it to Wikipedia yet, though. Sorry, that's Kake with a k! El_C 20:10, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Semi-protection proposal

You wrote:

You know much as I'm sure there'll be huge advances in what we know about Chuck Norris in the next few months, can't we just lock the article for a significant length of time until he melts back into obscurity again? This constant reverting is getting stupid. They should have a setting on Wikipedia to lock individual articles against anonymous contributors but not registered people... Or do they have one already I just don't know about? It'd be cool if there could be a setting to stop anonymous posters and registered posters with less than a certain number of edits on certain heavily vandalised pages. --TastyCakes 00:53, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

There is a discussion (and a straw poll) taking place right now regarding just this. You may want to review Wikipedia_talk:Semi-protection_policy#Semi-protection_proposal_v.02 for details. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 10:37, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Cool, thanks, I'll have a read TastyCakes 17:37, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Regional-literacy-bar-graph.TC.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Regional-literacy-bar-graph.TC.png. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. You can get help on image copyright tagging from Wikipedia talk:Image copyright tags. -- Carnildo 03:38, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] UBC Frats

You may be hard pressed to find it at another university? What is that? Who do you think you are? UBC is a public university and Wikipedia is all up for adding information to it to make it a better and MORE COMPREHENSIVE website. UBC has a very strong Greek system and it should be equally reflected on their page on Wikipedia. Ok maybe not the second thing on the page I’ll give you that but it should not be at the bottom of the page. Fraternities and sororities help build relationships stronger than most friendships and provide strong connections for after university. if you are not a member of the Greek system which by your reaction I’m almost positive your not you would have no idea about this.

It seems ridiculous to keep posting like this should I give you my MSN and we can talk about this?

[edit] License tagging for Image:Albino gorilla.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Albino gorilla.jpg. 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. 17:05, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What is a dicdef?

[edit] Coconut99 99

Hey, there. I've noticed this guy is hitting other articles and blanking, adding POV tags for petty reasons, etc. If you want to start an admin referal process (I don't know how to do that), I'll add my support to it. I'll also get people from the other articles to add their support. He isn't going to listen to reason from what I can see. John Smith's 21:30, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Ya it could probably use an admin. I have a feeling he'll just get bored and leave after a while though. I'm not sure how to refer to an admin either.. I'll try and find out. TastyCakes 21:39, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
I've asked for mediation. Would you like me to add your name to it? John Smith's 21:41, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
Sure. Looks like its getting a little heated.. ;) I've also left a message for an admin, don't know if they'll get back to me. TastyCakes 21:42, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
I would really appreciate it if you could stick with this, as he doesn't seem to want to leave it, unlike many other "unhelpful" editors. I was a little angry, but really he is being unreasonable to demand a reference for everything. John Smith's 21:56, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: EU in country lists

It took me some time to found out where actually did I join such a discussion :-P . I prefer having EU listed but italicised. — Instantnood 19:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:All_Red_Line_Map_1902.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:All_Red_Line_Map_1902.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days.

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Syncrude mildred lake plant.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Syncrude mildred lake plant.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. 193.248.38.124 01:43, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
