[edit] California project

Some California-related stuff going on at Wikipedia.

[edit] Google Wifi

This really isn't the place to ask that stuff, but check Google's FAQ and the forum referenced on that page. (John User:Jwy talk) 21:31, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

Hmm, or are you asking that be put in the article? (John User:Jwy talk) 21:39, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Old stuff follows

hi, just so you're aware, you've misspelled the word 'and' in the filename of the file "IRAQ map black nad white.jpg" Zmbe 00:14, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Deep Springs Valley

Hello! I noticed that you added information about CalTrans to the Deep Springs Valley article. Deep Springs College bought that station some 10 years ago (it is now called Henderson Station by the college). I studied there 2002-4, and at that time, Caltrans had reduced their presence to a collection of road signs and occasional equipment that they kept near the station. Unless they've recently expanded this collection, I feel that 'operates' and 'facility' are strong words. Where did you get your information from? Unless I'm mistaken, I'll correct your paragraph in a few days. Jugander 16:40, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Images listed for deletion

The following images that you uploaded or altered have been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there 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 their not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Re: Two Girls and a Guy

Thanks for adding the stub categories to Two Girls and a Guy while I was busy rifling through the list of all possible stubs... User:David Jordan 11/19/2006.

No problem! I'm surprised that it didn't already exist, considering the cast list. It's a good film. Perhaps you can look at the film infobox template as something else to add to raise the standard of the article, along with all of the great information that you have already contributed? Regards, (aeropagitica) 23:02, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Do not repost deleted material

You have recently re-created the article Image:CRISCO systems.jpg, which was deleted in accordance with Wikipedia's deletion policies. Please do not re-create the article. If you disagree with the article's deletion, you may ask for a deletion review. —Psychonaut 14:19, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GIF images

Hi, I noticed that you have uploaded a number of images in the GIF image format. As I try to convert all of these to the smaller, lossless PNG format, would you like me to change the images on your userpage as well? If you'd like to give me a hand with converting all of them, it would be appreciated, as it will take me quite a while on my own, if it gets done at all. ---Remember the dot 05:35, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Mood fart.gif is a great example of an image which has been significantly distorted by being in the GIF format. The GIF format is limited to a palette of 256 colors, making it really really bad for photographs. Please save your images in the PNG format instead because it is 100% lossless - it will not distort images in the slightest.---Remember the dot 04:12, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:OLD MV2.JPG, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 08:55, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Snow Creek Village

Hi Brien. Snow Creek Village, California is south of Interstate 10 near Cabazon, I think. It's between Beaumont and Whitewater somewhere. It consists of about 40 homes: a small place. It was described in the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection Riverside Ranger Unit Fire Management Plan 2005. The plan talks about areas with vegetation fire problems — so someplace of similar size out by Blythe might not be listed. User:David Jordan 11/27/2006.

Hi David. I still can't find much information on Snow Creek Village, you are right--it must be quite small. I have, however, stumbled into more unincorporated communities in Riverside County from the County's Building & Safety page. Some of them, like Glen Valley and Glen Ivy, are also found in my Thomas Guide. If you're still interested in helping track down small inland empire communities, there are a lot of good leads here. Thanks, Brien Clark 16:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Guinevere_dvd.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Lewis_and_clark_and_george_VHS.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Lewis_and_clark_and_george_VHS.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:OLD MV2.JPG

Thank you for uploading Image:OLD MV2.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. 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) 15:50, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
