Ah, thank you! I appreciate that. I have already had a look at some of that, but will look around a bit more. And I will definitely be staying, thanks. Agent0042 22:57, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Puck (videogames)
The reasons for the cleanup tag were obvious, and hardly needed explaining. It wasn't presented in Wikipedia MoS form, and the language was unencyclopædic. Half of laboured an obvious point in an unnecessarily tentative way, and seemed to think that Shakespeare invented Puck... Taking out the speculation about the origin of the name, there was one sentence, which essentailly said that it was a character in a game. I've made it a redirect to the game-article. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 10:34, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
- Taking out the speculation --- there was one sentence that essentially said he was a character? There was a fair bit more than that --- I said that he was the first character Vivi met and that he was a Prince of Cleyra. As for the Wikipedia MoS --- I was just providing basic info to get things started --- surely you or somebody else could have added more, instead of just sending people over to the Final Fantasy IX page, which has *nothing* to say about Puck. And, in any case, if the Cleanup tag refers to people to the Talk page, then you should have posted something about it on the Talk page!
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Franklin_Feature_Movie.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Franklin_Feature_Movie.jpg. 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 07:15, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
- I can't verify it. I believe it to be a small image designed for general press purposes. However, if it's not acceptable, than just delete it. Agent0042 18:17, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

- I'm going to go ahead and add a fair use tag. Agent0042 05:08, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Aria di Mezzo Carattere
I can indeed hear some similarities between the Aria di Mezzo Carattere and Aeris's theme, but can you provide any source attesting to the fact that the Aria was the "inspiration" for Aeris, or is this simply your speculation? Andrew Rodland 11:37, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't have any firm sources at this time, so I guess it is just speculation. Maybe something, though, could still be added that there are noticeable musical similarities, even it's not an "inspiration." Agent0042 03:27, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] TV.com edits
Hey. Can you please cite the information you added? Please see WP:CITE on how to do this. Thanks. Jtrost (T | C | #) 02:16, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
- The information you added about editors and some users of certain levels being able to contribute content needs to be cited. Authoring information off the top of your head is considered original research. You need to cite somewhere on TV.com where that information has been previously published. Jtrost (T | C | #) 13:26, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
- I think your basis for saying the information I added counts as "original research" is sketchy at best. However, since I can think of places where that information is posted, I will add citations for them as soon as I have a chance. (Probably sometime later today.) Agent0042 18:13, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
Look at today's featured article for an example on how to reference sources. Basically, use the pages from TV.com that you got that information from and add inline citations using the {{ref}} and {{note}} templates. Jtrost (T | C | #) 23:05, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks, I'll get on that... Agent0042 23:10, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Toad Patrol Character Shot.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Toad Patrol Character Shot.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 18:39, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
