[edit] Template:Christianity

[edit] Welcome to the Fact and Reference Check WikiProject

Dear new member,

Welcome to the Fact and Reference Check WikiProject!

No doubt you're familiar with what our noble (and somewhat lofty!) goal is, and I'm really glad you've decided to help to try and make it a reality. Thank you so much for helping out in our noble cause :)

You might find the biweekly special article interesting. Every fortnight, an otherwise good article that lacks any sources is chosen, and the Fact and Reference Check team works collaboratively to add references to the article. The current biweekly special article is Johann Sebastian Bach.

Two convenient templates for adding references are {{an}} and {{anb}}. By specifying a footnote name (eg. "which_university"), these templates allow us to link to notes effectively.

For example, if you want to reference which university somebody went to, simply add {{an|which_university}} next to the fact. At the bottom of the page in a seperate "Notes" section, add {{anb|which_university}}, and then your website or book. Wikibib can be used for generating correctly-styled references. Titan (moon) is a good example of a nicely referenced article.

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the project's talk page. You can also contact me personally. Thanks for joining, and taking the time to read this!

[edit] Help on de.wiki?

Hello Peter,

You asked me to contact you in regard to additions to the article de:Englische Grammatik. If you need anything just write it in here or submit - as you proposed - your suggested contributions and I will do my best to correct them ;-)

Greetings, -- Totti 14:49, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Napster

Sorry for taking forever to notice this - I haven't done it, but I think the mention of Wrapster and other third party programs should be returned: see its talk page for more. Lovingboth 29 Jun 2005

[edit] Image:Heterochromia iridis 01.jpg

Thanks for your help in photoshopping my Heterochromia iridis image! Yours, Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 02:03, August 19, 2005 (UTC)

No problem. Glad you think it turned out okay. --Peter Farago 05:16, 19 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] This talk page

I'll handle this one as sensitively as possible, but have you had a look at the talk page recently? It's just, DeirYassin hasn't responded to my statement yet and I was wondering how either of you felt about it. Bobo192|Edits

My primary objection was that the images were originally presented in-line on the article page. I thought, for the reasons I stated on that article's talk page, that it would be a better idea to link to them. However, I don't feel that adding an explicit in-text warning is necessary - by the time somebody gets to that point in the article, they ought to be well aware that whatever content is behind those links might shock them. --Peter Farago 19:36, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
They certainly triggered me, although not to anything serious because frankly I'm over that phase now. I have a much cleaner self-harm pic around but I'm never going to upload it here. Why? Because I'm frightened of people having the same objection as me. Pictures of self-harm can be triggering to the wrong people, particularly the kind of people who would want to read the article..
I hope this is the right decision to make. I agree most articles need to be pictured up, but when the pictures might cause such reactions, their lack of usefulness would outweigh their pertinence to that particular page. Bobo192|Edits
For whatever it's worth, Wikipedia's image policy agrees that in-text warnings are acceptable for certain content. I still have to question what compelled you to click those links, and whether you really think a warning would have impeded your curiosity. It's sort of a "don't touch the big red button" effect, isn't it? --Peter Farago 14:32, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Return of the King (1980 film)

Actually, the animated Return of the King was done by the same director/producers (Rankin/Bass), and with much of the same animation staff and cast, as the animated Hobbit. Perhaps you were thinking of Ralph Bakshi's The Lord of the Rings? —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 02:32, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Ah, of course. Thanks for the heads up. --Peter Farago 03:02, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
No problem! —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 05:30, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Logic

Greetings Peter Farago, any attention to the Logical connectives would be wonderful. Currently, I am working on infrastructure stuff for the WikiProject Logic, so I haven't worked on them for a little while. You should sign up on the participants page (don't worry if you are not a "logic" person per se) . I think a subproject like this has potential. Gregbard 01:51, 19 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Five V. Four races

You should just move the Tau'ri then to the Five Great Races and take them out of the human catagory. They were declared by Thor in the show "You Are Now The Fifth Great Race" not to mention there are a few other items wrong in that template that are wrong that I didn't change and was thinking about it at the time. Do you ever watch the show? Rynknx 03:49, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Rilo Kiley - Self Titled.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Rilo Kiley - Self Titled.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 (talk) 04:27, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair Use

Yeah, policy shifted out of a general desire to use more free content and less fair use content, and to avoid using fair use content when free content is available. Basically, this added a second layer of rationale - one that goes beyond "justify why this is legal" and to "justify why this is necessary on a specific article." "Fair Use rationale" is a bit of a misleading term in that regard. I'll add one to the image for you. Phil Sandifer (talk) 02:47, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
