Conflict of interest

I saw the following on your user page:

Photo assistant for Ranger Rick Magazine, employee of the National Wildlife Federation.

Given your affiliation with the magazine and NWF, you should have a look at WP:COI. I'm not suggesting that you've necessarily done anything wrong, but you should keep this guideline in mind in the future when editing the Ranger Rick article. Dsreyn 13:37, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Removal of warnings

While there is (as far as I know) no official policy on the removal of warnings from user talk pages, it's generally considered best not to do that. See WP:TALK#User_talk_pages. Dsreyn 13:37, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok,

Since you was kind enough to warn me about Wiki rules, is it possible that check user confirm is User:Wallak a sockpuppet of banned User:Bonaparte? PANONIAN 20:17, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Also, do you see what he done here: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vlachs_of_Serbia&diff=150237304&oldid=150237061 He completelly destroyed article about well-known subject. Can you protect this article until dispute is solved? PANONIAN 20:19, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Will you stop with those accusations? You deleted sourced information. You know pretty well the agreement between the 2 Gov. and now Vlachs are recognised as being Romanians, so no need to push POV with your edits.--WallakTalk 20:21, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
And when I asked you about official links you don't have. So you don't have any reliable sources.--WallakTalk 20:22, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
No, I did not deleted "sourced information". The link that you presented as a source is in Romanian that nobody here cannot read and you do not want to translate what that link say exactly. I told you: Serbian government recognized as Romanians only those Vlachs that want to be recognited as Romanians, but not those that want to be recognized as Vlachs and I also presented sources for these different opinions among Vlach community: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Romanians_of_Serbia#.40PANONIAN:_Vlachs_in_Serbia_are_Romanians._Here_are_the_proofs Also, I asked you for official links and reliable sources as well, and you have none... PANONIAN 20:26, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Oh yes, I have Romanian foreign ministry The agreement was signed in 4 Nov. 2002. Serbia recognized them that they are Romanians. It's only from 5 years now but there are Serbs that still want not to recognize them, like you do. Anyway, your opinion is not important, official Gov. does.--WallakTalk 20:29, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
That source is in Romanian and neither I neither user DBishop1984 cannot read it - in another words, the source could be useful only if we find some neutral Wikipedia user with knowledge of Romanian who can translate this for us. PANONIAN 20:35, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
It's still official, wait then to be translated. An official link is an official link and you can't delete it or ignore it. --WallakTalk 20:36, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
It is official link of Romanian government, not of Serbian one and if two countries have dispute about one question, then we would have to hear Serbian side of the story as well. However, I have one English-language link here: http://www.banatul.com/info/banat-history-romanians-in-serbia.shtml The link say: "In Serbia there are two populations of Romanic origin. One lives in Vojvodina and is largely concentrated in Banat and the other is in East Serbia, in the valleys of the Danube and the Morava, in the Homolje Mountains and Timok Area. The first group is made of Banat Rumanians and the second is known as Vlachs.". In another words, the source do not say that "Vlachs are Romanians", but it say that they are "of Romanic origin" - in another words you have no single reason to delete whole article about Vlachs: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vlachs_of_Serbia&diff=150237304&oldid=150237061 PANONIAN 20:42, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Do you understand that it's useless to come with links from forums or "sources" that are not realiable? There is already an agreement between the 2 Gov. and Serbia recognize the fact that "Vlachs" from Eastern Serbia are Romanians. Before 2002, they were not. Now, there are people like you who wants to ignore this fact. There's already official link which is the most reliable source. Do you get it now or not? --WallakTalk 20:46, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Why this source is not reliable: http://www.banatul.com/info/banat-history-romanians-in-serbia.shtml Regarding "2002 agreement", I have only your own word that it exist and I cannot read the source that you posted, so we still did not went anywhere. PANONIAN 20:48, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Not my word. My word or yours don't counts. It counts only reliable, verifiable sources like the official ones. And I'm not the one who add it first in the article. It was edited long time ago. But, again, there are people in Serbia like you who want them to be divided, even if they are the same people. Untill 2002 it was like that. You didn't recognized them. After that at least you change it. But not you of course, you deny any official link and you like your forum links better.--WallakTalk 20:51, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Please focus on the subject, not on other users (I am not the subject of this story). I will ask you again: Why this source is not reliable: http://www.banatul.com/info/banat-history-romanians-in-serbia.shtml PANONIAN 20:53, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Because since it is you who wants to change the established version, you have to provide proof of your point in the form of quotations from reputable sources (rather than your speculations) which clearly say that Vlachs from Serbia are not Romanians. Take into account again that your Gov. of Serbia recognize them after 4. November 2002 --WallakTalk 20:55, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
I am one of original authors of both articles, so I am certainly not "one who wants to change the established version" as you claim. Also, you did not answered my question: Why this source is not reliable: http://www.banatul.com/info/banat-history-romanians-in-serbia.shtml PANONIAN 21:02, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
You don't "own" those articles. And if you didn't took into account that agreement between the 2 Gov. that's too bad. Also, do you recognize them officially like your Gov. or not? --WallakTalk 21:05, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Regardless, I'll check on the Bonaparte allegation. Also I'll be following up on the edit warring and 3RR violations if they happen. DBishop1984 20:59, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Sound Effects Table

Wow! You did a great job with the table! That really makes it easier to read. Thanks for your input on the Elliot in the Morning page. 165.176.241.130 18:34, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks :) --DBishop1984 18:37, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

EITM

I've managed to fill in the origins of some of the other soundbites as well. Also, to answer your question about a notable callers table, I think that would look great! 165.176.241.130 17:02, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

I reverted your edit, because there were still other vandalisms. Just letting you know... :) 165.176.241.130 13:46, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Good idea, Eitmluvr is my account name, I'll start using that one now. 165.176.241.130 16:45, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

I agree with you about it being a busy day on wiki, it seems that everytime the show mentions wiki, the page gets attacked all at once. Thanks for the lock, it will calm down by the time it expires. Eitmluvr 17:11, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

That tone tag has been there for months. Not sure how to get rid of it though. Hopefully someone knows how. Eitmluvr 18:39, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Rangerrick.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rangerrick.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. OsamaK 11:45, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Diversity Group

if they start that again, let me know too please --lucid 00:57, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Will do. --DBishop1984 03:35, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

EITM

And the vandals start again! Eitmluvr 13:45, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I've also noticed that the MP3 link (from Craig quitting) is no longer being hosted by the show's website. Should we remove the broken link and replace it with another? Or should we simply remove it all together? Let me know! I can have it hosted somewhere else if you'd like. :) Eitmluvr 17:03, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
