[edit] Images
I notice that you have uploaded several images. Please check Wikipedia:Image use policy. All images need to have image copyright tags indicating their copyright status or they're subject to being deleted. Thanks, -Willmcw 02:11, Jun 6, 2005 (UTC)
When I have time, I'll go through all of your pages. ;-D So far, your delete requests have not been so popular Baxter2 20:11, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Multiple accounts
I see that you're editing as User:Baxter2, User:Baxter3, and User:68.10.35.153. While there's no policy against using multiple accounts, it's strongly discouraged, and any account that's used to violate policy is likely to be deleted. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet. Many thanks, SlimVirgin (talk) 03:38, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Bill White (activist)
I've just about finished the rewrite of this page. If you take a close look at it, I think you'll find that it's a fair and well-sourced write up. (In case it's been changed since I last looked, check the last version under my name.) I've tried to stick closely to what the third-party sources say, and linked to them whenever I could - though sometimes I had to link to websites other than those of the news organizations, because not all the articles are online. Rather than reverting, how about letting me know what specifically you disagree with, if anything? Or if you think something important has been left out, or something has been emphasized unfairly, please say how you think it could be rectified, bearing in mind that it probably shouldn't get much longer. Regarding the list of articles you wanted, Willmcw suggested as a compromise that we put a link to the list on your website under External links; he or I will do that as soon as we can access your site.

[edit] LNSGP edit
Baxter2:
Some folks (including me) are a bit confused about one of your edits to Libertarian National Socialist Green Party and posed some questions on it's talk page (here). Some background on one of the changes that you made would be appreciated! Thanks! -- Seth Ilys 00:40, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Daryle2.JPG
|
Thanks for uploading Image:Daryle2.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 07:28, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
