[edit] Why?
Hi. Why did you remove the notice I gave you earlier? Please do not remove notices from your userpage. If you don't want them, you can archive it. I didn't revert it because you might remove it again, causing an edit war. Removing notices without properly archiving it can be seen as vandalism. Usually it is only archived when it gets very long. Thank you. AstroHurricane001(Talk+Contribs+Ubx) 21:01, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:Eltiempo1.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Eltiempo1.JPG. The copy called Image:Eltiempo1.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.
This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads.

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Medellintram.jpeg
Thanks for uploading Image:Medellintram.jpeg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, 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 files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 13:36, 22 October 2007 (UTC). 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.

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Magicbat3.JPG
Thank you for uploading Image:Magicbat3.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. -- STBotI (talk) 19:41, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Speedy deletion of Magic bat
A tag has been placed on Magic bat requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ~Matticus UC 19:52, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Europe Portal logo/banner
I see that you have been trying to adapt a common logo format for the different continental portals. Good work! But that's not an argument for having the same thing in the Europe portal. IMHO the calligraphy logo you made illustrates an extreme stereotype of an old-fashioned and retrospective Europe. That could be perceived as non-NPOV or negative. It's also hard to read. And I don't think having the main Wikipedia logos here and there in raster images is a good idea. Your PNG is very tall and big. - S. Solberg J. 10:59, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] A random question from someone you've never met!
Hi! I found your user page simply by looking for people who speak Spanish (based on one of your user boxes), so apologies if this seems like something from out-of-nowhere. I was wondering if you could help me with something small, but Spanish-related. I'd like to ask a Spanish-speaking Flickr user if they would grant GFDL permission for the use of an image of theirs. So, I was wondering if you could help me compose a letter to that person, obviously in Spanish, that does so. Specifically, I would need a request for permission translated, and then help with any additional correspondence. Actually, to make things even simpler, that page has a Spanish equivalent (es:Wikipedia:Modelo de petición para la reproducción de imágenes, though there doesn't seem to be alot of stuff on that page, so maybe not), so perhaps you could recommend one of those pre-fabricated letters, and help me plug-in all the necessary info. If that seems like a hassle don't worry about it, there's plenty of other Spanish-speakers on Wikipedia, you're just the first random person I clicked on. Either way, thanks alot!

[edit] Mandala
Hi. There's been a move away from citing "In popular culture" with respect to articles unless the specific item is notable in and of itself. It's an aspect of the guideline about trivia. You just added that section to Mandala. Would you be OK if we omitted that from the Mandala article altogether? I'd prefer we didn't start a section like that there, it's going to attract all sorts of popular usage which over time will be merely trivial and detract from what a mandala is or what it means. Is that ok with you? Thanks! - Owlmonkey (talk) 01:18, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for the response. There are some official guidelines about this already and some ongoing discussion about it. For background please see the article Wikipedia:"In popular culture" articles for a discussion on "In popular culture" sections. Also Wikipedia:Avoid trivia sections. In there you'll find a suggestion that popular culture items that can included with a citation by "...a respected expert as attesting to the importance of a subject as a cultural influence". I take that to mean that a citation that just shows it's a fact is not enough, but a citation that it's notable in specific some way. In other words, that the relevance in popular culture was significant or impactful. So in the Last Mimzy case, did the use of a mandala at the end of the film have any impact on the culture or the use of mandalas. Can we find any citations showing that it was a unique usage, significant in some way? If it just occurred - is just an example of a mandala - then it's trivial and not notable and we shouldn't have it. And I'm worried about having the section attracting other non-notable trivia. That's what I was getting at. And yes all the "In popular culture" sections across the Wikipedia need reconsideration under that guideline; it's going to take serious work to remove that cruft. - Owlmonkey (talk) 06:40, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
- Changing the name of it doesn't change what it is. Also found a proposal to make those sections OK, which was rejected: Wikipedia:Notability (in popular culture). But I found a really great summary of the issue here: Wikipedia:Handling trivia where it reads currently:
Trivia is broadly defined as information that is not important. However, since Wikipedia consists of articles, we can be more specific — trivia is information that is not important to the subject it is being presented in relation to. -- Note that certain kinds of information can be more or less important, depending on the context. For instance, in the South Park episode "Pink Eye," the space station Mir (which really existed) lands on Kenny McCormick (a fictional character), killing him. The overall importance of this piece of information may be hard to define, but it is certainly important to Pink Eye (South Park episode), somewhat important to Kenny McCormick, and not very important to Mir.
- Framed by that example, I think it's fair to say that the Last Mimzy is not important to Mandala, but Mandala is important to Last Mimzy. So there should be a reference to the Mandala article in the Last Mimzy article, but there should not be a reference to Last Mimzy in the Mandala article. Currently the Last Mimzy article, however, does not mention the importance of the Mandala at all. Can you remove it from Mandala and add the importance to Last Mimzy? If not I'll make the changes. - Owlmonkey (talk) 18:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] World Cup
I'm not vandalising the talk page. I actually re-instated the comments by other users that you deleted. Please don't delete other people's messages just because they don't agree with you. Peanut4 (talk) 01:41, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- I might add that I am not making it hard for you, not even close. I am simply disagreeing with you and your reasoning. I don't see the need to move it and I don't like people using flawed arguments to subvert discussion. let consensus, not Voting take its course. Oh, please look up copyright law as well, it is perfectly acceptable under copyright law for us to use FIFA World Cup as the article name. Woody (talk) 08:20, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Please don't go making assumptions about mine or anybody elses common sense. Through this extraordinary medium of the internet, you cannot possibly make judgements on peoples personalities. My "flawed argument" comment was in relation to your hypothetical story. Now, if FIFA have a problem with Wikipedia using FIFA World Cup as an article title, then I am sure their lawyers will be in touch. This discussion has reached its natural conclusion Mr Sanchez, let it be. Woody (talk) 20:40, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- There is no need to be petulant or slanderous? Mafia? Have you been watching The Godfather (I liked the dead horse and Mafia analogy.) Consensus decided that the article should stay as it is, not me. That you cannot accept that reflects poorly on you. Woody (talk) 20:51, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the civility policy if you would like to learn more about interacting with others. However, unconstructive comments, such as those you made on FIFA World Cup ([2][3][4][5]), are considered not very nice and immediately removed. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Also, taking issue with a decision you do nto agree with and spilling over into other articles is not acceptable conduct (see forum shopping). Please stop, and consider improving the Wikipedia community rather than attempting to damage it. Thank you. 81.110.106.169 (talk) 23:39, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Yo
Please don't make comments like the one here which could be seen as a death threat. It's not nice for anyone involved, and it rarely helps. Play nice, and we can all get along. :) See also Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#Death_threat.3F. Regards, dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 10:29, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- (ec) Agreed, I don't think there's any question of blocking you at present, although other admins may disagree. Tempers often get frayed here, and it's better just to walk away and chill for a while. I note you apologised immediately afterwards, but that sort of comment really doesn't help. Sometimes things don't go the way we want; the bigger guy takes it on the chin and walks away. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 10:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Blocked
You have been indefinitely blocked for making a death threat to another user (diff). -- The Anome (talk) 11:30, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
Copied from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=206213432#Death_threat.3F :
- I've indefblocked this user. Death threats are not allowed under any circumstances. -- The Anome (talk) 11:33, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- Indeed, but I doubt the user was serious, and if he retracts/apologies/doesn't do it again, then he should be unblocked. -- Ned Scott 10:23, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
{{Unblock|I have openly apologized. I didn't mean for my comments to sound serious. It won't happen again, please unblock me.}}
May I ask where you have openly apologised? I am happy to unblock you myself if you can provide a link or if you retract it now. I know that you "apologised" after you said it but in which case, why say it in the first place? Woody (talk) 15:19, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
I suggest that you:
- Apologize again here;
- Demonstrate an understanding of why it was not appropriate;
- Undertake not to do anything like that again; and
- Undertake to strikeout the offending comment if unblocked.
Cheers, Bovlb (talk) 15:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] RfA
I have to say, it seems like a spectacularly bad idea to go to an RfA immediately after coming off a block for threats, and it is highly unlikely to succeed. I'd suggest you edit productively for at least a few months, then try it. PS, another tip would be to use edit summaries. henrik•talk 15:04, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hola & tag
I have removed your neutrality tag from Che Guevara as it was not accompanied with any rationale, talk page discussion, or past involvement with the article. A "drive by" tag is neither constructive nor helpful. I and others would be more than happy to address possible neutrality issues that you have with the article if you make those specific objections known. Also be aware that the article itself has gone through a long recent process of editing, review, FAR, etc where neutrality was questioned. Those disputes were eventually resolved. The usual first productive step if you have neutrality concerns is to first make them known, and why you believe they violate pov on the talk page, and then if those concerns go unaddressed, and are seen as credible by other editors while being based in reliable sources, then such a tag justified.
