Many thanks for the invitation, but as a UK resident who knows nothing about Salem, I think I must decline! I'm also pretty busy with articles here where I can contribute with some knowledge of the subject - but good luck to you! Kim Dent-Brown (Talk to me) 14:46, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unusual Adoption Request

Hi! Im an English teacher in Toluca Mexico (west of Mexico City). My Advanced B classes will be contributing to Wikipedia as the focus of their English course for Fall 2007. I am looking for people who would like to mentor my students (who will be working in groups) as they do the following assignments: Edit and article (adding a citation), writing a stub with a citation, translating an English language article for Spanish Wikipedia and for the final project, writing a full article for English Wiki (they can expand on the stub mentioned previously). What I would like to do is put a list of "mentors/adopters" on my talk page as a kind of short cut for my students, who have limited time to get things done. The semester begings Aug 6, but the real Wikipedia work wont begin until the beginning of Sept. If you would like to add your name to my list, please go to my talk page and add it there, perhaps with a short introduction, if you like.

Thank you!

[edit] Diatonic button accordion

Thanks for helping out on this page (though I can hardly bear to call it a diatonic button accordion)... Pittising 13:10, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. Does John Spiers credit himself as playing a DBA on his CD sleeves? Does John Kirkpatrick? Does anyone?! Unfortunately the term was there when I came to the article, with melodeon as a subsection. I know it's strictly correct but still... Kim Dent-Brown (Talk to me) 09:04, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:50 years of Wicca.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:50 years of Wicca.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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. NAHID 07:54, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
