[edit] Scarsdale cars

Hey one thing I need help with. Do you remember anything else about this car, or this one (this seems to be the interior)? I don't recognize these at all but they're kind of cool... --SFoskett 14:28, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Oops got it - they're Bitter SCs. --SFoskett 14:39, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong ip

<BODY> <FOCUS> <CONCLUSION, SUGGESTIONS> <THANKS> <SIG>

   <CHANGE>
INTRO::

Hey, you sent someone a message about bad edits to this ip. First I would like to say that the message you sent was clear and neutral, very effective.

BODY::

1) It wasn't me 2) I am at a hotel on wireless internet

 //   Relevant because I don't know how ip adresses are assigned on wireless
FOCUS::

3) Either

 a)   Anyone who connects to the wireless at this hotel gets the same, or a number of the same, ip address(es)
   or
 b)   Somehow someone else's ip was randomly assigned to me, which is some ridiculous once in the universe chance.
CONCLUSION, SUGGESTIONS::

1) I would usually just not worry about it because I really don't care 2) But, if there is some <don't message> or <don't allow these people to edit> list of ip addresses, then this is one of them to put on it.

THANKS::

The edit made from here was pretty stupid anyway, why do people without accounts have the ability to edit? No matter, thanks for putting your time into editing, makes Wiki that much nicer for the rest of us. Have a nice day!

SIG::

~~newly password-protected hailf.cbpb.com server only accessible through koregate deathwarez lets you know:~~ `~FEEL FREE TO USE CLEARTHOUGHT SYNTAX, BUT PLEASE JUST ON MESSAGE BOARDS, EMAILS THAT LOOK LIKE THIS JUST MAKE YOU LOOK IGNORANT~`


CHANGE::

Didn't see the 4-tilde was code-enforced, but my comment hasn't shown up on your talk page, so here's try number two: 65.208.137.50 05:57, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confirmation

Yeah this is shared, so if there is a block list, throw this one on...only good can come of it. If anyone really wants to edit usefully, I'm sure they'll get an accounts. No need to respond, I'm gone this morning. 65.208.137.50 15:00, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Gilad Shalit.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Gilad Shalit.jpg. The image description 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.

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.

[edit] bad edits

you messaged me about some vandalizations that i had made on the oc page (fox tv show) and "kiev oblast". I didn't make these changes, and i have no idea what either of those things are (though after reading their wikis i am sufficiently more informed). I don't really care about the warning or whatever since I didn't do it, but the changes that I myself have actually made are small corrections and typo fixes, which I believe helps the wiki community. Please get back to me if there was a decision made in error @ freemoney1@gmail.com.

[edit] Image:Emory Quad Panorama.jpg listed for deletion

[edit] Request: Permission to use image in upcoming Superformance wikipedia article

Howdy, I was wondering if I could use your picture, "[Image:Shelby_Superperformance_427-435hp_Driveable_Chassis.JPG] [sic]" in an upcoming wikipedia article for Replicar company Superformance (spelling is correct [[1]]). Thank you for your time. - BMan1113VR 23:23, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! -BMan1113VR 00:04, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Emory Crest.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. MECU≈talk 03:23, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No assertion of permission for Image:Emory University Seal.gif

I have tagged Image:Emory University Seal.gif for speedy deletion. Per the source you cited, the image is restricted to official use only, and there is no indication given that Wikipedia has received clearance to use the image. Accordingly, the image appears to infringe on Emory's rights as owner of the image.

As it is unfree, I am also reverting the image out of the Emory University article.

This issue was previously discussed at Talk:Emory University, including the specific issues of the restrictions on Emory's seal. Please discuss the issue further there before making changes to the image. Thank you, —C.Fred (talk) 02:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

As it is a university logo, I don't think it would be unreasonable to claim fair use on it, and the rules on the Emory visual identity site don't really apply to us for our purposes. The problem is that it's not the seal used on 99% of university correspondence and web sites, and the PNG I uploaded a few months ago is. Whether it looks like the seals used by other universities isn't really a concern. At any rate, the consensus in the discussions we've had on the talk page have concluded that the simpler seal is the preferable logo for the article. —ptk✰fgs 03:12, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Emory Eagle.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Emory Eagle.gif. 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 20:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Emory Eagle.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Emory Eagle.gif. I noticed that 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, then 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, then 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-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 20:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.Betacommand (talk • contribs • Bot) 20:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:Emory Eagle.gif

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Emory Eagle.gif. 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.BetacommandBot 04:38, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:Secunia.gif

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Secunia.gif. 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. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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.BetacommandBot 04:18, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:CRAZY copy.gif

You created this image but tagged it as nonfree. Although it is a screenshot, the copyright is yours; the screenshot copyright tag is intended for other uses. Please consider changing the copyright tag to a free license such as GFDL. — Carl (CBM · talk) 18:03, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Possibly unfree Image:CRAZY copy.gif

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:CRAZY copy.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Image:CRAZY copy.gif

Is the graph in that image a function preprogrammed into the caluclator, or did you type it in yourself? I am working to find a way to mae a free image illustrating the Ti89 graphing ability. — Carl (CBM · talk) 00:39, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Is it true you would like to release your work under the GFDL? If so, I will take care of cropping the image and tagging it appropriately. — Carl (CBM · talk) 00:55, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
That's great. I have cropped the image to Image:TI89graph.png and added to the Calculator article again. Please feel free to update the image; I credited it to you. It's the TI89 user interface that is problematic. — Carl (CBM · talk) 01:13, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:EverclearBand.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Everclear.jpg. The copy called Image:Everclear.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy.

[edit] Emory Alumni Section

Hi, Nrbelex. Thanks for the note on my talk page.

I am indifferent on keeping the section on the Emory Alumni Association. The section, even in a reduced form, is marginally informative. A quick scan of other university articles shows that alumni organizations usually don't merit their own section.

However, I'd suggest using a more collegial approach in deciding its fate. What if we post a note on the article's talk page suggesting that the section be eliminated? Assuming that there are no objections, then we delete it. And if someone really wants to keep it, we can counter by suggesting that the section be spun off into its own article and then eliminated from the main Emory article.

What are your thoughts? Please let me know -- thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Majoreditor (talk • contribs) 12:39, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I have posted a comment on the article's talk page suggesting deletion of the section. Let's give it a couple of days and see if there's any feedback. Majoreditor 01:30, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
No one has suggested keeping the section. Should be OK to delete it. Majoreditor 02:38, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Request for 3rd opinion: Emory

Hi, Nrbelex. Can you please offer a 3rd opinion on this edit at the Emory article? Thanks. Majoreditor (talk) 15:08, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Much appreciated. I have removed the material (again) per your suggestion. Majoreditor (talk) 17:39, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
