[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Lack.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Lack.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] Thanks for your edit to Stanley Marcus

Good catch there - kind of funny I didn't think of it myself, as I made the category and Marcus article and have done a lot of research on his high school. Goes to show the many benefits of all these editors working together! :) Lawikitejana 04:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] More thanks

And thanks for making my middle name public. Hope I can do the same for you someday. >:^) Kylegann 02:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] South Dallas

Hello again! First, thanks for your contributions to Category:Graduates of Dallas ISD. As the creator of the category (and — you guessed it — a proud DISD grad), I appreciate help in fleshing out this category so that people can see what a long tradition the Dallas public schools have, and the effect they've had on the larger world. Can't say it's always a proud tradition, but it's indisputably a long one.

Now I'd like to ask for any help you can offer with regard to fleshing out the South Dallas article. It's pitiful! When I came along this morning, it basically just said, "South Dallas is black and poor and dangerous. Here are the neighborhoods and roads." That's just inexcusable. I'm not promoting boosterism — certainly the negative associations of the area are part of telling its story — but to leave it at that is simply unacceptable, you know?

I saw that you contributed quite a bit to the Skyline High School article, and while I know Skyline can be considered an East Dallas school, certainly the area borders South Dallas and some people wouldn't distinguish ... so it seems to me a person with info about that area is a person who might have input for the South Dallas article. I do note that your message on the Skyline talk page indicates that you filled in the history partly from "personal knowledge"; if we put fact tags on things where we need people to provide a citation, that'll be OK, or we can put such material on the Talk page with a note that we need help getting it past original research. I've got a Dallas Public Library card, which means the ability to access a database of DMN articles for ~1888-1977; that's proving quite handy for looking up things where I merely "know" they're true without having backup to prove it. :)

Don't want to take up your whole talk page, so I'll stop here. Hope you have some time and will to help expand and improve this article! Lawikitejana 15:41, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

P.S. Read your homepage and the ("LOOOONG version" of the) bio. You don't seem to be the userbox type, but you might be interested to know there are userboxes both for Ukrainian and Ashkenazic ancestry — I have both, myself. :) Checked through your RootsWeb info (fine work! BTW) out of curiosity, but saw no overlap; ours mostly settled in South Texas, with a branch in Mexico City who didn't get the government OK to stay in the States and a handful in the Dallas-Denton area. Small world, as they say.

[edit] RFC:Conductor infoboxes

currently underway is an attempt by a just a few editors to prohibit the use of infoboxes in articles of all classical musicians. in my view, the manner in which the policy was adopted was just a bit underhanded, and skeevishly done. if you are at all interested keeping the infoboxes, please go here and join the discussion. if you would like to loose them...well...just ignore this message. cheers! --emerson7 03:34, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] lampens

[edit] Wright article

Hi there, I appreciate your effort with Wright and other musicians. I am just trying to keep it within an unbiased framework, so that if someone from the public uses wiki as a source, the subject's notability is portrayed in a realistic way. Thanks and please don't take my edits personally. --Jkp212 (talk) 06:24, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you too. ----Jkp212 (talk) 21:51, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Female classical musicians

I see that you are adding this cat to many of the female singer pages that I watch. Are you sure that singers go in this category? There are already voice part categories, singers by country, etc.? Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 19:36, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

I am suggesting that the category may not have been intended for singers, but only for instrumentalists, since there are already other categories that seem more applicable. I think that populating the category with singers may be duplicative and make it less meaningful. I don't know enough about the entire category heirarchies to be sure, but I am not sure that the thing to do is to populate this category with singers, who are already properly categorized as sopranos, mezzos, etc. and also already categorized as singers by country. I leave it to you as to whether you feel you have done adequate research on this issue, but if you have not done so, I don't think you should assume that this category is intended to include singers. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:33, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Skelton

Please don't put comments about an edit on the editor's personal Talk page, because then others can't see and join in the discussion; put it on the article's Talk page. I'm moving your Skelton comment to the Longest Word ... Talk page and responding. This way we'll see if others have an opinion, one way or the other. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 20:52, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
