[edit] Talk begins here :D

  1. Please refer to my user page.
I can't move my section heading ==talk...... below the table.
It's working as intended since tables are not supposed to break the test flow. Maybe you can add blank lines to make the text start afterwards? I move this section below the welcome text :) I leave the helpme tag here since I didn't give you a definite solution :) -- lucasbfr talk 20:48, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help :D Remember to comment on my user page so that I can improve it :P --ADouBTor 20:57, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
Problem solved - by adding < br>s. Big thanks to helper(s) who helped and wants to help :D --ADouBTor 21:11, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Avanza_Front.JPG

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Avanza_Front.JPG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 07:05, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Remember to Warn Vandals

Remember to Warn Vandals
Hello and thank you for your contributions as a Vandal Patroller! Regarding the recent revert you made to America's Army: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you.

[edit] Edit pages

Yeah, I probably should try to condense my edits somewhat - when making large edits I sometimes like to do them in bursts to prevent large amounts of work from being lost, but with smaller stuff I should use preview more often :) WhisperToMe (talk) 06:27, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Woah, you sure replies fast. Nice to hear that =D))))). hmm.. just for my personal interest. are you a pilot? =X . no offense. where did you get the informations with regards to all the aviation article? i love them. ADouBTor 06:33, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
I'm a university student in Texas... I had an interest in aviation since I read an in-flight magazine while in the third grade :) WhisperToMe (talk) 07:32, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] assistance required in the renovation of my user page

{{help-me}}I am currently renovating my user page to a somewhat more neutral looking one. i noticed the small little introductory boxes like {user Young Adult} (disabled). I like to know where can i find them? ADouBTor 06:40, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Userboxes#Gallery has loads of them, sorted by type. Algebraist 06:47, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sorry to hear you ditched Wikipedia

I know how you feel. I used to be an avid fancruft editor myself from late-2005, until I found out how bitter and pointless disputes surrounding what should be included and what shouldn't could flare up, when the focus on real-world topics are sidelined. I'm done with pop culture; let's the basement dwelling fanboys and fangirls have it their way.

Doesn't mean the rest of the site is less unreliable either, and your little speech hold water. I know I was right when I told my younger cousin not to cite Wikipedia for his college assignments, as was his lecturer. But I'm sticking around for a little longer to fix up a few Malaysian article, got plenty of photos to upload to Commons too.

If this fails, might start a photoblog anyway; settle down to finally focus on old-school architecture and urban planning in Malaysia. I heard many of those pre-war buildings in Malaysia are not well protected.

By any chance you could provide an e-mail address? I love to keep in touch. - Two hundred percent (talk) 16:38, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Toyota_Avanza_Interior.JPG

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Toyota_Avanza_Interior.JPG. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 23:36, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dispute about use of rims

I told Zerotta that he should contact the Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Automobiles and discuss the issue with the rims. Please do so too. He seems to be making a good faith contribution so both of you should discuss the issue on the WikiProject. WhisperToMe (talk) 22:15, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
