[edit] License tagging for Image:MotherPearl.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:MotherPearl.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. 19:08, 19 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Notes to self

Quote

Civil War historian and southerner Shelby Foote, stated "The CSA flag traditionally represented the south's resistance to northern political dominance generally; it became racially charged during the Civil Rights Movement, when protecting segregation suddenly became the focal point of that resistance. A 1994 Harris poll showed that 68% of blacks nationwide did not find the flag offensive. That same poll showed 92% of southern people, of all races, did not find it offensive.

[edit] Penn & Teller

Your link to what you consider to be a site that debunks one episode (out of around 50 to date) of their Bullshit series hardly merits inclusion in a general article about Penn & Teller.

Even if the link you provided was accurate and made its points well (it fails on both counts IMO), Wikipedia is not a link farm and it looks suspiciously like link spam to put the link on a page that has such a weak connection. A more relevant location would be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit!#Allegations_of_bias - but better still would be to incorporate the critique into the Allegations of Bias section of that article rather than just slapping a link at the end. --TheCenturion 16:51, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

You will also find http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links useful with regard to Wikipedia policy. Good luck. --TheCenturion 16:57, 12 October 2006 (UTC) --Slgrandson

Every statement is sourced to a peer review journal. Please point me to ONE single fact in that link that is wrong. Wacki 02:58, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits to Alexander Graham Bell

I've reverted those changes...that blog is not a legitimate link for that article, nor is it a valid source of facts. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 20:13, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough, I'll just put it in the talk page. Wacki 19:35, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Please don't do that. It will just be removed. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 19:42, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
What is wrong with the talk page? If others can confirm it then they will add it, via another source of course. Wacki 19:45, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
I went ahead and added it as a query on the talk page. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 19:53, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
