[edit] NASCAR Owners
I've created a NASCAR Owners Infobox. You can see it live on the Robert Yates Racing page as an example. Please look over and make adjustments, etc. See the WikiProject:NASCAR talk page for more info. 69.134.50.153 01:22, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] NASCAR rules
I am considering nominating the article NASCAR rules for deletion, since it has a lot of redundant information from other articles. But, first, I would like to invite you to see if it could be improved. Click here to help.--Esprit15d 14:29, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Barnstar Award
I enjoyed the update you made on "Pittsburgh Sports Lore" so much I had to check out your other articles. Great articles. Keep up the good work man. Mmeinhart 04:01, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Seemingly random question
Hi, good job on the NASCAR articles.
I have a question. Is Jeff Green your favorite driver? You seem to update his article a lot. Just curioius! --D-Day My fan mail. Click to view my evil userboxes 22:57, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks
For fixing my typo on the "Sports in Clevelandi".... —akghetto talk 06:31, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image problems
We might have a problem with the NASCAR images. The "fair use" criterion may not hold enough water. (Check my talk page to see why.) --D-Day My fan mail. Click to view my evil userboxes 16:05, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Award
I've noticed a lot of your NASCAR contributions. Please keep up the good work. Feel free to display this barnstar on your user page. Thanks. --TantalumTelluride 04:45, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] ARCA racers -> ARCA drivers
I have nominated that the category "ARCA racers" be renamed "ARCA drivers" in order to be more consistant with other categories like "NASCAR drivers", "American Speed Association driver", etc. Please click here for an explanation of the problem, and a link for you to leave your comments. The problem could significantly affect WikiProject NASCAR. Royalbroil 00:42, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Jeff Gordon
Please see my response on the Talk:Jeff Gordon page. I meant no one any insult: you, Gordon, or the anonymous IP. Iamvered 18:25, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject NASCAR proposed standards
WikiProject NASCAR needs your help! We are in the process of forming our proposed standards which, when complete, will hopefully become a Wikipedia guideline. The guidelines will help editors understand Wikipedia consensus about things like which NASCAR-related articles meet notability standards. Please stop by and let us know what you think!

[edit] NASCAR-related articles
Hey, I've been trying to understand where to put articles that are NASCAR related so that they show up in the "Recent NASCAR changes" --Tim Quievryn 03:18, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:FitzBradshawRacing.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:FitzBradshawRacing.jpg. 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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] GA possible
With just a quick glance over Jeff Green (NASCAR), I believe it could reach GA status. Look over the GA critieria and other passed GAs for examples on how to bring it up to GA status. Once you think it qualifies, nominate it here. --Nehrams2020 04:36, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Nascarthunder2003box.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Nascarthunder2003box.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. Seraphim Whipp 15:23, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
