[edit] Terminator Genesis VG article cleanup

Hi I tried to clean up the "terminator" article(Terminator (video_game_system)) that you tagged..I'm a n00b so it's hard. Not an native English speaker either. Oh well, I'm trying, I love that console. byee! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tonich03 (talk • contribs) 00:14, 5 February, 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Year 2038 Problem

Thank you for your continued efforts to clean up and extend Wikipedia. I am, however, confused by your recent edit to the Year 2038 problem article. Can you explain why you removed the animated GIF in favor of a static SVG? For the time being, I have reverted the change. Jouster  (whisper) 18:40, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Hmmmm. I think Privoxy on my machine must have staticized the image. My mistake. Emanla Eraton 18:54, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Please find a free image or media to replace it with, and or remove the image from your userspace. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 06:46, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help with userboxes

{{helpme}} I've placed a lot of userboxes on my userpage. You can see that they are not arranging properly. How do I align them to stay consistent ?

Hi there, the easiest way to position userboxes neatly would be to use a table and put the code for the userboxes in each cell of the table.

Basic Code for this would be:

{| class="wikitable" |- | {{user psychedelic}} | {{user piano}} | {{user band-2|Dead Meadow}} |- | {{User:Scepia/CVG music}} | {{User Indian music}} | {{User:Rugby471/Userboxes/vlc}} |- | {{User:Everchanging02/UBX/Most music}} |}

If you need anymore info on tables have a look at Help:Table Andy^reply 22:35, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The YnD

The article The YnD has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article seemed to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki 22:52, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help with galleries

{{helpme}} Would a gallery be the last section on a page, or right before References?

Typically it's set up right before References. However, there is no "rule" on where it goes. See WP:PIC#Photo gallery for more help. Hoof Hearted 15:26, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mountain pink

What plant precisely do you mean by Mountain Pink, the Dianthus cultivar Dianthus 'Mountain Pink'? In this case it has to go in as a cultivar. Are you using this as the common name for more than one species? In this case it should be a disambiguation page. Are you using this as the common name for a specific species of Dianthus, maybe Dianthus myrtinervins? In this case, it goes under its scientific name. Please let me know, and if you need any help moving. KP Botany 03:26, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm not exactly sure what plant it is. I asked USer:Stemonitis, but he said that it would be hard without a Latin name. I can take more pictures of the plant and put them up, if it makes it any easier to find out what plant it is. However, it does look like Dianthus armeria, in which any case, I could delete this article. Emanla Eraton 12:12, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

It might be a bit hard to tell just from pictures of a pink, unless you ask a local botanist, or know that it is a native plant and can confirm its natural in its habitat. Whatever you decide, the article has to be under its scientific name if its not a cultivar. KP Botany 17:09, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image source problem with Image:Bo2k 2005.png

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Bo2k 2005.png. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 20:10, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Hello Ksd5,

My name is Anthony, I'm french and I'm the principal administrator of Ekopedia. I've seen on Wikipedia that you spoke Kannada.
Would you like to create Ekopedia in this language?
