[edit] Thanks!
It wasn't all me but I feel honoured that someone should consider me for a barnstar! Thanks! Readro (talk) 23:10, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:SuperMarioBrothers OverworldMusic.ogg)
Thanks for uploading Image:SuperMarioBrothers OverworldMusic.ogg. 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. BJBot (talk) 19:26, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] 1995 Japanese Grand Prix
Hi Alex, hope your fine. Recently, the Japan 1995 article was up for Peer review. You said you'd review it thoroughly on the peer review, but it has since been closed. Could you possibly (if you have some spare time) provide a review on the article's talkpage. I would be very greatful if you could provide a review of it on the talkpage. Thanks, D.M.N. (talk) 21:16, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- No I actually haven't thought of doing that, because for that article it is untrue. For the Qualifying results, I did not use the official F1 website, as they for whatever reason do not supply results for qualifying. It's also not like on the official site they put the distance (km and miles), who achieved fastest lap, what date was it held on etc., all they supply for the old races is the race result itself. All of the timings for qualifying I got off a different website. I also prefer to put the ref in the time column for the result table as it looks more professional IMO. Hopefully I've managed to word the above right - sorry if sounds a bit weird! :) D.M.N. (talk) 22:07, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

| For the suggestions you made in heping me improve the quality of the 1995 Japanese Grand Prix article. Thank you very much! D.M.N. (talk) 21:03, 27 March 2008 (UTC) |
- I left some more comments on the talkpage. On the Autocourse subject, Diniz won't be able to get to it for a week and a half, so I won't be able to use that at the moment. I'll use it later, hopefully by that time, someone should of reviewed the article for GA-status. D.M.N. (talk) 21:43, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] BTCC messup
Ew, what a mess. Thankfully a small one, I think - please let me know if I missed any. Very sorry about that - I'm now tweaking my regular expressions to be less overenthusiastic - David Gerard (talk) 22:41, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

That's a lot of reverts. I'm gonna keep my eye out for them as well over the next few days. Good luck in trying to catch them. Eddie6705 (talk) 21:02, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Yup, that sounds right to me. Readro (talk) 19:12, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

On 16 April 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Rondel Racing, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
It's always a pleasure to put a racing-related article on the main page! --Royalbroil 04:11, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] 1994 San Marino GP
Ofcourse it's suitable for the article, as if the drivers were using this device, Ratzenberger would probably be alive today (Kubica's last year accident in Montreal was almost identical to Ratzenberger's, and the Polish driver escaped the crash unharmed).I removed this sentence because it gave the impression to the common reader that the device was started to be used in the same year, something which never happened in real. So it should be made clearer when FIA started to discuss the possibilty of using the HANS device (1995-96) and when they decided to make it mandatory (2001)!--KaragouniS : Chat 09:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] {{sortname}}
Noticed you seem pretty happy with the template, Alex. Hopefully we can get a consensus going to use it in the season articles or something? --Phill talk Edits Review this GA review! 21:29, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
Hello, AlexJ. The Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca map looks great. Could you do a map of Phakisa? It's a motorsport venue in South Africa that has an oval course and a road course, with two configurations. Thanks for your time. Fclass (talk) 21:36, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
AlexJ, it's me, Fclass, again. Could you do a map for Gingerman Raceway? This is the last time I ask you to do something like this. I promise. Fclass (talk) 21:38, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Bbcscrumv logo.jpg}
Thank you for uploading Image:Bbcscrumv logo.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.
