[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello Tiburon, welcome to Wikipedia!

If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing, Alf ^melmac 13:07, 21 September 2005 (UTC).

[edit] Rugby league

Hi there, you're doing a nice job creating pages about rugby league players. On point though: you created Category:Rugby League Players, but we already have Category:Rugby league players, so it's not actually needed. I'm removing from the pages, hope this is cool. Grinner 09:28, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

Oh by the way you could add the players to List of footballers (rugby league) if you like.

[edit] Sources for Are You Involved?

Hello, good work on Are You Involved?, and thanks for the contribution. However, you forgot to add any references to the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. What websites, books, or other places did you learn the information that you added to Are You Involved?? Would it be possible for you to mention them in the article? Thank you very much. - SimonP 04:17, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

That's not a problem, though what specific parts of the article are you having problems with that need sourcing? Obviously the charting of the album does, which I shall fix everything else I just pulled straight off the CD. Thanks Tiburon

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Cronulla sharks peachey david bust.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Cronulla sharks peachey david bust.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is 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) 14:41, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Robert Doherty

Hi there - just wanted to leave a note to let you know I've moved an article you wrote. Robert Doherty is the pseudonym of a military/science fiction writer, the real name of a writer for Star Trek: Voyager, and the rugby player you wrote an article for. There were 10 links on wikipedia pointing to the article, of which a few wanted the Voyager writer, and all the rest wanted the other writer. As such, I created a disambig page and moved your article to Robert Doherty (rugby player). Just in case you were wondering what had happened :) --Mnem e son 01:48, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edit to Ron Emory

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "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.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. Cynical 13:42, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RL Project

Under my real name a couple of month back I've written a brief article on Norm Provan and a better one Ken Kearney. Not sure if you want to cross them off your list. Are you able to help me delete an article ? See article Cyril Abotomey which must surely be bogus (see the playing dates & # of games). Also my article on Kevin Ryan is appearing under both Kevin Ryan (footballer), duplicating Kevin Ryan (rugby league footballer). Are you able to delete the former??

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:The Joykiller Ready Sexed Go.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:The Joykiller Ready Sexed Go.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. 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. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed 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.

[edit] Cyril Abotomey

Hi Tiburon, I'm a little confused by your article on Cyril Abotomey. Did he play between 1966-1973 or did he play between 1923-34 ? I suspect it was the latter but did he really only play 21 games in 11years ? No wonder he had such a long career. Is this article for real ? Sticks66 07:45, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your Additions

Regarding your sports additions (rugby players). Please add a {{sports-stub}} tag at the bottom.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nenyedi (talk • contribs) 13:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Cronulla sharks rogers matt bust.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cronulla sharks rogers matt bust.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL.

[edit] WPRL Article Improvement Drive

Hey I've noticed you're a regular on rugby league articles, particulary NRL ones. I need your advice on something I'm thinking of starting up on the project. Many WikiProjects have Article Improvement Drives which have different levels of success. I'm thinking of starting one up for this one too, but instead of voting on an article I would rather strive to improve one NRL club every fortnight and bring it up very close to featured status. Now it seems as though there'd be a lot of work involved, but there are also a lot of club fans out there who'd probably be willing to participate. Basically there are 30 weeks in the NRL season and there are 15 club pages that are not yet featured. I propose that we all have a schedule to work on one new article every second round, in alphabetical order. By the end of the season hopefully we will have 15 near-complete, if not complete articles. My only concern at this stage is the dedication of editors to help out other team pages that they are not interested in. Basically in order to get the support of editors like these, we need a few leaders in the project. If you are willing to dedicate a bit of your time every week into this and if you have any further suggestions, could you let me know at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Rugby league/Article improvement drive? Thanks, --05:59, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Darrel Chapman

This fine footballer, teacher and academic who died tragically early deserves an article. I can write it but do you have any info? I have approached SCU where he was working when he died for additional info. Thanks Albatross2147 03:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that stuff, Where did it come from? Albatross2147 03:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Paul Gibson

As you may know the new NSW Minister for Sport has in the past claimed that he played grade for Manly Warringah in the 60s. Have you any information on this? Thanks

[edit] AFL

Why have you reverted my edits twice on the AFL disambiguation page? As you're probably aware, the Australian Football League is easily the biggest and most popular football league with this acronym. It is now lost at the end of a list of other football leagues, some of them quite obscure. Please tell me you're really trying to improve this page. Easel3 08:06, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
