[edit] Cheat codes
The Computer and Video Games WikiProject advises against putting cheat codes in game articles, unless they are famous enough to have their own article. That kind of information is more suitable for Wikibooks. Spottedowl 16:37, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Star Destroyer
The Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser is a 600 m long ship, Star Dreadnoughts are ship much bigger than ISD like, the Executor, the Eclipse, the Sovereign or Mandator classes please stop changing the link. Elfwood 13:57, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- My apologies. I had changed the link as "dreadnaught" redirects to "dreadnought" which is itself a disambiguation page for a number of articles, only one of which refers to a Star Wars related article.
[edit] WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request
This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I may have found your page based on your contributions or your link repair user box on your user page. If you are not a member, please consider including your name on the project page. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 23:12, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Date formats
Regarding your edits at Brendan Nelson, the standard Australian date format is date followed by month by year and this is the format used in Australian articles. Further, WP:STYLE#Dates says that commas are not used between the month and year. Accordingly, and as you expected, the dates have been changed back to what they were.

[edit] Copyright problems with Image:Pokemon card game in progress.jpg
An image that you uploaded, Image:Pokemon card game in progress.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Powers T 15:11, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:1990s CD based encyclopedias.jpg}
Thank you for uploading Image:1990s CD based encyclopedias.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check:
-
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.
