[edit] SCJU vote

Hi. TrackerTV here. The same guy that you went (Merge as per) on the SCJU (SimCity Journal Union) log on AfD. Thank you. The content is valuable, but entire articles and categories don't work. Thanks. -TrackerTV 17:12, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

==Please Use Edit Summaries==

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labelled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

When you leave the edit summary blank, some of your edits could be mistaken for vandalism and may be reverted, so please always briefly summarize your edits, especially when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

I was creating a new category on a users talk page. I assumed the edit summary would be returned as the name of that category. Thanks for the warning, but I make better summaries for my edits than most users. You'd know that if you went to my contributions page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Jelligraze on average my summaries are at least a sentence or more long. --Jelligraze 04:49, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

It's just a friendly reminder nothing to take as a warning. I had been sending them to all the recent changes without summaries (most of them are chronic non-summarys). You do make more summaries than most. Thanks ¡Dustimagic! ^(T/C) 18:14, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PSYCH's handywork

Thanx, I've been looking for that. As I suspected PSYCH is drumming up support as was suggested on my userpage by two anonymous vandals. However, you are a bit late. This vandalism has been active across numerous pages for a few days now. Xtra 05:58, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Irony

"has proven that we understand something these Communists don't - Wikipedia is a community" hehe... that is extremely ironic. In fact, wikipedia embodies many communist ideologies. ---J.Smith 17:31, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I know, I chose to word it that way to strike a chord with them. :-) --Jelligraze 17:45, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Protect

I placed a semi-protection on your userpage. I'll get a tag on it. --DanielCD 17:37, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much - very appreciated --Jelligraze 17:45, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

If anything appears on the talk page, just revert it, unless you want that protected too. --DanielCD 17:49, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Well, technically the talk page is where the actual vandalism is taking place. --Jelligraze 17:50, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Just LMK when you want it removed. --DanielCD 17:52, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Third opinion

Hi, I was wondering if I could solicit a third opinion about the current reverting going on over at Star Sonata. Would you review the two different versions? Thanks! ---J.Smith 02:59, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Just did. It wasn't to the most recent version, but to what you and the anon were talking about 9 days ago - which seems to be in connection with the problems going on today. --Jelligraze 17:36, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

No, your right. It's the same edits going back and forth for about two weeks now. I'm becoming flabbergasted. Outright lies and content removal. If the pattern holds true things will calm down for 2-3 days and it will happen again.---J.Smith 18:01, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pepsi Blue

Hello there - I have responded to your request in the PB article. Apologies for not citing. I hope you have a Safeway store nearby! ~sunbun 05:05, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oakland Community College

I removed the copyright tag, but removed most of the material to the talk page. When you work on it, be sure to do your own writing, as even a paraphrasing can be considered by some as plagerism if it is too obvious. As you move the material back, try to perhaps reorganize and re-think it, just use your judgement; try to phrase it so that the copyright gestapo has as poor a case as possible. What they do is take a ten word selection and google it. If they get a hit and find the obvious place the material came from, paraphrased or not, that is a copyright issue.

It's always preferable to write your own stuff and use more than one reference, even if it is fair use or public domain material. I don't know how much you know, so forgive me if I seem to be talking down to you or rehashing the obvious. But I remade the article as a stub for you to continue working on. Let me know if you have any more trouble. If any of the material on the talk page is problematic, try to weed it out as quickly as possible so someone doesn't slap a tag on that too. Delete it from the talk page as you finish with it. Kind of a gray area here, but I don't see any need to delete the article as if you cut and pasted it. --DanielCD 03:49, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] City Life / Tropico

Tropico is considered a city-building game by Wikipedia's definition of it - it's listed on that page, in fact. Whether it's "modern" is arguable, but it seems disingenuous and unhelpful to narrow the definition of a game simply to be able to define one of its unoriginal aspects as "unique". --McGeddon 05:52, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removing semi-protection

Hi. I've removed the semi-protection on your talk page. I know that vandalism of talk pages can be a problem, but it's important that users be able to be contacted by newbies with questions and concerns about things they don't understand. I hope you understand - please feel free to contact me with any questions. Phil Sandifer 19:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Citylife screen10.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Citylife screen10.jpg. 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) 12:23, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
