[edit] Amazing Race
I am loving the map w. the race locations. Wondering what program you used to make that? Was it Arcview? --Madchester 00:00, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

There's no need to wiki-link every entry in the Amazing Race.. Refer to What Wikipedia is Not. Also, with the links provided, they didn't pertain to the actual locations and tasks aired. Thanks. --Madchester 01:58, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding edits made to Mark Zuckerberg
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, CrazyLegsKC! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule facebook\.com\/p\/, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 16:51, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Bio-stub template
Thanks for trying to sharpen the {{bio-stub}} template in Homer Laughlin. Unfortunately {{US-artist-stub}} is not an accurate stub as Mr. Laughlin was not an artist, but instead an entrepreneur and industrialist. Before adding the stub to the article, I had searched for something more specific than bio-stub, but could not find anything that looked like entrepreneur/industrialist. --Kralizec!

[edit] #REDIRECTKonkani language
Can you provide any good reason why the Konknni page should be redirected? I had put the content there and removed the redirection for clarification. If you make any changes please have the courtesy to atleast provide a comment 06:36, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Bio-stub
You removed {{bio-stub}} from Jun Chen. The reason I put it there was to attract the attention of somebody with sufficient expertise to apply the appropriate stub template for someone described as "Chinese American", since I was unable to locate one in the time available to me. Please either do so yourself or restore the general stub for someone else to make more specific. TIA HAND —Phil | Talk 22:27, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A favor
Hi. I see you're a Penn State student, and I need your help. I've been trying to find an ancient painting for the mythological Orion, and it appears the only undisputed example is the Odyssey landscape of Hades from the Esquiline, but unfortunately the only place it's available online is a restricted Penn State website. It would be fantastic if you could upload image #18 there (and maybe #19 too, I'm not quite sure which is the right one), so we could use it in the Orion article. Thanks very much.--Pharos 11:53, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] CC templates
I'd be more than happy to updated the CC templates, I just have a few questions / concerns. First, the |- directly below the {{CC-Layout}} is unnecessary and should be removed from the new versions. Two, some of the current versions have an HTML comment above them indicating the license type (e.g., Template:Cc-by). It's your choice whether to keep that or not. Three, I'm going to create a /doc subpage for each of the templates; do you have any preference about which method to use: {{/doc}}, {{documentation}}, {{template doc}}? Once you've clarified these three things, I'll make the updates. --MZMcBride 19:02, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Character Pages
Hey, CrazyLegsKC, I respect the work you've done on the Desperate Housewives page, but I would like to know why have you deleted many interesting regular and recurring characters's pages by linking their names to the list of the show's characters. Many had great articles dedicated to them ( Xiao-Mei, Alma and Gloria, Preston and Porter, etc. ) and now only the continuing regulars ( not all of them, though ) and the former regular stars of the show appear on the template. If one tries to add new character pages, you somehow don't allow them. I ask of you to please let the show's article contain more character pages like it used to. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Renaboss (talk • contribs) 22:41, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
I completely disagree on what you did to the DH character pages, it was fast and without enough point of views and you took the liberty without being a moderator to take such a drastic and iportant action to delete all these pages.

[edit] Redirect of Taco pronto
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Taco pronto, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Taco pronto is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Taco pronto, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] Penn State explanation
Hi CrazyLegs, just wanted to clarify something about the debate about where Penn State's article should be. I agree that "Penn State" is the most common abbreviation for the university, and I can see why you think it'd be better to have the article there (I don't agree, mostly because I want to maintain consistency with other university article names). The solution to ambiguity, however, is not to tack on "University" to the article name. Ambiguity is solved by adding items in parentheses, so a more acceptable option than the rarely heard "Penn State University" would be "Penn State (university)". It incorporates the commonly used name and Wikipedia's standard disambiguation rules. However, doing this when there's a good alternative name (namely, Pennsylvania State University) doesn't make sense to me. Hopefully this clarifies my opinion on the issue. --Spangineerws (háblame) 18:56, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Revlon logo.gif
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Revlon logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 18:50, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:PA Lottery Logo.png
Thank you for uploading Image:PA Lottery Logo.png. 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. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. 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.BetacommandBot (talk) 15:21, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Improving Facebook to Featured Article status
I am currently working on improving Facebook to Featured Article status, and I noticed that you have made substantial contributions to the article recently. If you have time, I would appreciate it if you could help out and improve the article. Some comments by other editors have been left at the peer review, Wikipedia:Peer review/Facebook/archive2, so feel free to address those issues, also. Thanks for your time!

[edit] A question
Hello there, you probably don't know me. I am Keegan.
I have an interest in nominating you to be an administrator, I see by your contributions and your deleted contributions that you could use the tools in good faith for maintenance purposes. Though you have a low edit count considering time on the project, I think you have a good chance with a well written nomination and good answers to questions on your end.
The only issue I have is the number of images that you have uploaded and have been deleted spacing almost 8 months. This would be an issue in an RfA, and I was wondering if you had an explanation for that. You can reply here or on my talk page, happy editing to you. Keegantalk 06:04, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Specifically, is there a reason that you wound up with so many non-free images that resulted in tagging? Was it a case by case basis, bot sensitivity to wording and linking...those sorts of things. Appropriate legal image use is a huge concern for many editors (as it should be), based on the idea of free content. Thanks, Keegantalk 04:04, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Image:Ferranti.png listed for deletion
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Ferranti.png, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Ferranti.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Ferranti.png. 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) 12:33, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:AWrootbeerlogo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:AWrootbeerlogo.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. 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.
