[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Ruby Band Logo.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Ruby Band Logo.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) 12:20, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Twinkle damage in Nathan Bedford Forrest

Hi Kresock, I came across this Twinkle edit that removed a number links and categories from the article Nathan Bedford Forrest. My bot already restored the interlanguage links, but could you please have a look at the article and undo the rest of the damage? This is caused by a nasty bug in Twinkle. --Silvonen (talk) 13:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Another user seems to have restored the missing article content. I hope the bug will be fixed soon. --Silvonen (talk) 17:10, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Joseph E. Johnston

The information is duplicated in Early life, hence the removal from Postbellum life. --Tombomp (talk) 20:09, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] History of Confederate States Army Generals

Thanks for the formatting & clar. help on the page, and for the kind words. Losing the caps on the section "Generals" has messed up the redirects I made to them, but that was a minor fix. The page does look better and more complete now, and a lack of such an article has been bothering me for a while. I am pondering whether to include a table for the top 25-40 major generals as some of them were promoted and would be redundant (though one for the 350+ brigs probably is not gonna happen) and would love your imput on this and any other ideas for expansion. Perhaps on the talk page?. Kresock (talk) 00:27, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Oops, sorry about the redirects. I think your decision to tabulate only the three- and four-star generals was prudent. You could have a section called something like Other Notable Confederate Generals, but the selection process would be pretty arbitrary and subject to abuse. And there is also another list article that has all of the generals anyway.
Other suggestions: Figure out what you want to put into the Legacy section, at least in outline, or remove it. I, for one, have no idea what you intended to put in there. And if you want to be more complete/anal, you could include the nomination and confirmation dates for the generals. Sometimes the dates of rank are a little confusing to readers because they were often backdated, but the nomination date indicates when the government thought the officer had done a good job.
