[edit] Fireworks kaboom

Hello! Thanks for the "news" about the fireworks explosion, but it is probably not something we should keep in a city article, it's not that important in the long run. And... see my comments on it. I hope I did not distract you from future writing! I do not mean to. --grin ✎ 23:02, 2004 Aug 7 (UTC)

Fair use? Public Domain? ...

[edit] Image tag

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

  • Image:EZPA.jpg

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status?

You can use {{gfdl}} if you wish to release your own work under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{PD-self}} if you wish to release your own work to the public domain, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use of someone else's work, and so on. Click here for a list of the various tags.

If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the image from, and I'll tag it for you. Thanks so much. Denni☯ 03:47, 2004 Dec 16 (UTC)

P.S. You can help tag other images at Wikipedia:Untagged_Images. Thanks again.

[edit] German Visa Affair 2005

Hi Marc,

I notice that there's a lot of untranslated German material in this article - are you translating it? -- ChrisO 23:28, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Similarly, I'm noticing that, well, no offense, but your English needs some work. If you want to drop a note on my talk page when you're all done with the preliminary translation, I'll go through and copyedit and tidy things up. --John Owens (talk) 23:51, 2005 Mar 19 (UTC)

I'm now ready with translation. There are a lot of difficulties because some words are not available in the English language, so I had to do "word-to-word translation". It was really difficult to translate.

Hi Marc, I think the article really isn't neutral. At least you should clarify who said what -- the press statements of CDU/CSU discuss the visa "affair" (I don't think even this title is correct) in a totally different light than the press statements of The Greens. Maybe a good idea would be to write the article in the German Wikipedia first, then waiting until a consensus forms there about it's contents, and only translating it after that? -- till we ☼☽ | Talk 13:32, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

"Tillwe" I witnessed that you are a pro-Green and SPD-supporter because you have worked on many articles about the Greens / SPD. That means the statement above is biased.

[edit] Request for Comments on Current events

Hello Marcschulz –

I'm trying to get some discussion going on two proposals regarding the current events page, but so far have gotten little to no response. Since you have recently edited the current events page, I'm asking for your input on these two proposals:

  • One proposal (this is the big one) involves putting the daily events from the current events pages into article-templates, a lá the monthly pages from 2003 to 2005, as well and having a consistent number of recent days on the current events page instead of a monthly archive. This would allow for the current events page and the respective month pages to be updated simultaneously without the monthly archival. For more, see the current events talk page.

Your input on one or both of these issues would be appreciated. joturner 22:16, 4 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:WWM.gif)

Warning sign
This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:WWM.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. meco 19:23, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bitch.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bitch.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 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 fair use images 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. —Angr 14:04, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your request for adminship

Hi, I have removed your RfA from WP:RFA since the actual request was missing You also posted your link at the bottom instead of the top of the list of current RfAs.

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:Bitch.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Bitch.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr 18:09, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
