[edit] License tagging for Image:Spirit walker.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Spirit walker.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 10:08, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] King George V School

I would like an article assesment and importance rating on this article and ways of improvement.

After you made the assesment and importance rating could you please put it on the talk page in the template

{{WPSchools
 |class=
 |importance=
 }}


Put the assement rating on the class bit and the importance rating on the imortance bit. It will on the top of the page.

It will look like this:

Thanks a lot KGV 05:53, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Please see automated peer review suggestions here. Thanks, APR t 21:40, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trebor

I made the assessment at a B-class; I don't feel able to judge the importance. The main reason it won't get any higher at present is a lack of references. The whole article needs citing. It's also weak on history, and a bit too focused on more recent events. Trebor 23:37, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to Novels WikiProject

Hi, and welcome to the Novels WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to fiction books often referred to as "Novels".

[edit] Wolf Brother

Nice little article I have cleaned a bit - it is not normally acceptable to use "Blurb". If some element of it is required then it need properly referencing and included with in-line citations. Also not sure about the level of entries in See also most of these are referenced elsewhre in the article, it should really be used for "See other also". :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 11:15, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your request for adminship

I would suggest you withdraw your request for adminship, as it is almost certain that it would not succeed. People expect somebody to be here for at least three months before attempting to become an admin (there are other expectations too).

And a suggestion. It is good to use an edit summary when you contribute, so that other people can understand what you changed. Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:38, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism reverts

Thanks for cleaning up vandalism on Wikipedia! Also, thank you for putting warning templates on the vandals' user talk pages. Just one thing I'd like to mention: please substitute vandal warning templates when you use them; for example use {{subst:uw-vandalism1}} instead of {{uw-vandalism1}}. It makes the messages more personal, and limits the damage that vandals can cause by vandalising the warning templates. Keep up the good work! Dave6 10:12, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies

Seeing that you are an active member of the WikiBiography Project, I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [unassessed articles] tagged with {{WPBiography}}. Many of them are of stub and start class, but a few are of B or A caliber. Getting a simple assessment rating can help us start moving many of these biographies to a higher quality article. Thank you! --Ozgod 21:08, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Children'sLiteratureWikiProject template

Look's like we might have a little problem. You have recently added some assessment and category assigning code to this template - which is fine of course. However the categories you are using are the same ones that the NovelsWikiProject use in theirs. Obviously the subject areas of the two project overlap and we should be working closely with each other. However it is going to be "very" confusing if two different templates assign articles to the same assessment categories. My own view would be that your template should assign to a specific set of "class" category etc for your project.

I have have quickly made some changes to seperatre out the categories I trust they will be acceptable. My apologes if these cause problems. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the response. Tried to be as careful as I could. Did you have and thoughts about the subject below. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 10:29, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

One the subject of co-operation would we be able to develop a "joint task force" for scope overlap areas. We work on the stories, characters, locations etc. for all prose narrative fiction, loosely refered to as "novels" regardless of length. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:36, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arctic Monkeys

Not sure whether or not you were making a joke or not, but the Arctic Monkeys tag you put in the Arctic article in the section on animals redirects to a band's page. Thus, it's been reverted. If you were referencing an actual type of animal, I suggest you either create the article or find an appropriate one to redirect to. Thanks for your edits. Bullzeye 05:55, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RfA

I see that you have re-submitted, word-for-word, your failed RfA of last month. I have to say that nothing has really changed in the short time between these submissions, and I do not see any chance of this one succeeding, for the following reasons:- 1. Using exactly the same words guarantees exactly the same response. 2. You do not show, from the edits you have made, an adequate in-depth involvement in all aspects of wikipedia. 3. Your answers to the questions do not reveal an adequate perception of the role of an admin. 4. Your command of English spelling and grammar leave a great deal to be desired. (Did you really mean "incest" on your user-page?) The fact that you are still at school is of no consequence - many of our admins similarly are still in education. But you have to demonstrate competence in admin-related tasks, which at this time I do not see. I suggest that you withdraw your application before it gets jumped on, and consider coming back with a freshly-created application when you have another six months or so of experience and another 3000 or so good edits in your edit-count.--Anthony.bradbury 09:24, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

My friend, further to your reponse on my talk page, I would not dream of arguing with you, and it may be that by accident you re-submitted the old RfA rather than a changed one. But the old one is the one which showed in the RfA page.--Anthony.bradbury 08:04, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your RFA

I regret to inform you that I have closed your RFA per WP:SNOW. Please continue improving and once you up to the standards mentioned above by Anthony, consider running again. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:49, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fixed spelling

I fixed the spelling in the top part of your userpage from "incest" to "interest", but if you oppose it, then please feel free to revert. Abeg92contribs 21:19, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism warnings

I do not sign vandalism warnings - I only date them - because it makes it slightly less likely that my userpage will get vandalized, at least by people who don't know how Wikipedia works. Kat, Queen of Typos 02:16, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Vampirates tide.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Vampirates tide.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 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.

Congratulations to our 225 new members
From the Editors

The newsletter is back! Many things have gone on during the past few months, but many things have not. While the assessment drive helped revitalize the assessment department of the project, many other departments have received no attention. Most notably: peer review and our "workgroups". A day long IRC meeting has been planned for October 13th, with the major focus being which areas of the project are "dead", what should our goals be as a project, and how to "revive" the dead areas of our project. Contribute to the discussion on the the new channel (see below)

We decided to deliver this newsletter to all project members this month but only those with their names down here will get it delivered in the future.

This is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue. Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned or post news on the next issue's talk page

New irc channel

Lastly, a new WikiProject Biography channel has been set up on the freenode network:

#wikipedia-en-bio

Our thanks to Phoenix 15 for setting it up.

[edit] Theodore Epp rating

Hello KGV, Did you look at this article before adding the Biography Project stub-rating template to its Talk page or did a Bot do it? This article does have an Infobox and a photo, so the "needs-infobox=yes" and "needs-photo=yes" parameters are untrue. JGHowes talk - 13:59, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Arabic names don't work that way

Greetings!

I noticed you tried to interpolate an English style surname for someone with an Arabic name. No offense, but I believe that was a mistake. Generally people with Arabic names don't inherit their surname from their father, as people do in the English speaking world. So there is no value in sorting them on their last name. Generally their last name is their father's first name. Actually, it is more complicated than that. There are regional names, and tribal names, that can be added at the end. They aren't surnames either. IMO it is better to sort these guys solely on their first names.

So I changed your "listas" field.

Please consider holding back from trying to shoehorn Arabic names into the English style surnames.

Exceptions are those who have lived in a westernized Muslim country, like Turkey, or who have lived in non-Muslim countries. They often adopt the English style of naming. But very few Guantanamo captives fall into that class.

Further, the DoD proved unable to choose one consistent representation of the captives names. A very substantial fraction of those captives have multiple inconsistent names -- generally varying most in the last components.
