[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Gov_Keating_signing_bill.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gov_Keating_signing_bill.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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 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 non-free media 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. Rettetast 22:30, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Presidency of v administration
I wanted to know your reasoning for changing the names of the articles on presidential administrations, from "Administration" to "Presidency of", the term presidency is rarely used in public discourse i.e. scholarly journals and mass media, which almost universally uses terms such as administration, government, or white house (for example the "Reagan white house" or the "Reagan administration"). My own feeling is that presidency is rarely used in a neutral sense, if used all. So perhaps it the term administration should be used instead.- thank you Astuishin (talk) 22:25, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Possibly unfree Image:Octavian_and_Antony.jpg
An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Octavian_and_Antony.jpg, 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. Iamunknown 23:25, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:George_Nigh.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:George_Nigh.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. MER-C 05:33, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wikiproject Oklahoma Newsletter
Greetings! This is a random delivery of the WikiProject Oklahoma newsletter, the "WikiOkie Reporter". You will not recieve this again unless you sign up.
 WikiProject Oklahoma's Newsletter |
Your second or third stop for WikiProject Oklahoma News |

WikiProject Oklahoma releases new newsletter  September 2007 brings a new face to WikiProject Oklahoma: a newsletter. As in all of Wikipedia, the new WikiOkie Reporter (tenative name) is intended to be a collaborative effort among editors. Anyone can edit it: this month's newsletter is placed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/aug07, but next month's will be placed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/oct07, with the following month at /newsletter/nov07, and so on. While this month's article's were initially written by User:Okiefromokla, it is hoped other editors will be excited to contribute to articles, content, layout, and ideas. This is a completely new child of WikiProject Oklahoma, and it should reflect the collaborative work of everyone who's bored and has nothing to do for a few minutes. As such, anything can be discussed here: anything - layout, color scheme, pictures, content, etc. The behind-the-scenes workings for the WikiOkie Reporter will be simple: anyone wishing to recieve the newsletter in their talk page may place their name at sign-up list, but they are more than free to remove their name from the same list at any time. Anyone wishing to discuss ideas or anything at all related to the newsletter may look no further than here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Oklahoma/newsletter/talk. Several WikiProjects already have ongoing newsletters, including Wikipedia: WikiProject North Dakota, from which WikiProject Oklahoma's newsletter has been based. For the time being, Okiefromokla will assume distribution responsibilities for the newsletter, maintaining the template, and writing articles from scratch if other editors have not done so by the 1st of the month. Promotions on the rise For many Wikipedians, summer is a time to kick back, relax, and make an occasional minor edit to their favorite few pages. Not so in WikiProject Oklahoma. Between May 12 and September, editors have been busily working on Oklahoma, Tulsa, and Woody Guthrie, and all three have been promoted. Prior to May, there were only seven Featured or Good articles in WikiProject Oklahoma. On May 12, Tulsa was promoted from B-class to FA class after a few months of extensive editing. Its primary editors were User:Nmajdan, User:SandyGeorgia, User:Okiefromokla, and a handful of others. On August 25, Oklahoma was promoted from B-class to FA class after a month-long blitz. User:Okiefromokla, User: SandyGeorgia, and several anonymous IPs contributed heavily to the article. On June 13, 2007, Woody Guthrie was promoted from B-Class to GA class after two failed attempts at promotion. User:Dannygutters, User:Gaff, User:Maenpong, and a handful of others contributed most to the article. |

[edit] WikiProject Oklahoma Newsletter October 07
 WikiProject Oklahoma's Newsletter |
Your second or third stop for WikiProject Oklahoma News |
 Modest boost in assessed articles during September WikiProject Oklahoma's massive list of unassessed articles got smaller over the month of September, as 45 articles were assessed by bots and editors. Assessments made on August 31 bring the total to 62 assessed articles over the 31-day period. On September 15, BetacommandBot assessed 40 articles from no-class to stub and start class. This bot automatically updates the talk pages of articles included in more than one WikiProject if at least one WikiProject has already assessed the material, bringing each interested WikiProject's ratings into compliance with the assessment. No B-class or higher quality assessments were given out over September, and only a small handful of importance assessments were granted. On August 31, one Low, Mid, and High importance rating was given to three separate articles. Leroy McGuirk was given the lone high-importance rating. Oklahoma categories receive help from Texan TexasAndroid, an administrator, assisted WikiProject Oklahoma by categorizing nearly 100 Oklahoma-related pages on September 24. The additions were made mainly to Tulsa-related pages. "I've done the major cities in Texas in the past, and was thinking about what to do next, and decided to stay relatively close to home for now. Thus OK's big cities got done," TexasAndroid wrote on his user page.  Meet WikiProject Oklahoma's "sub-project" Taskforce Tulsa, a collaboration of editors operating under WikiProject Oklahoma, has been created to increase the scope of Wikipedia's coverage of Tulsa and its surrounding areas. Taskforce Tulsa is many things, but most importantly, it is a way for editors to have a place to put Tulsa-related requests (pictures, article, expansion, collaboration) for other editors interested in Tulsa. News, guidelines, and category trees related to Tulsa articles can easily be accessed and added through the task force's project page. The taskforce is not its own WikiProject. Instead, it works in conjunction with WikiProject Oklahoma to increase the quality and scope of Tulsa-related material. Because of the increased clutter and unnecessary waste of space that would be created with a new WikiProject, editors have opted for a taskforce, or workgroup project. Rather than having a Wikiproject Oklahoma banner as well as a Wikiproject Tulsa banner on most Tulsa-related pages, editors can simply add the Tulsa Taskforce note onto the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner. Cleaner, clearer, and more efficient. In edit mode, such a banner would appear as this: "{{WikiProject Oklahoma|class=FA|importance=Top|tulsa-task-force=yes}}". In other words, simply adding "tulsa-task-force=yes}}" to the existing Wikiproject Oklahoma banner on an article's talk page would include that article into the Tulsa Task Force. According to an explanation on the taskforce's project page, "The Tulsa Task Force is a 'sub-wikiproject' operating 'beneath' Wikiproject Oklahoma, and is designed to assist it by focusing specifically on Tulsa-related material. Editors who are interested in expanding knowledge of Tulsa on Wikipedia may wish to consider themselves part of Taskforce Tulsa as well as Wikiproject Oklahoma." Interested parties can sign up much like a stand-alone WikiProject. |

[edit] Controversies of Rudy Giuliani
Hi, Seeing as you were the original creator of the article, I'm hoping you might be able to help me recover/restore/recreate the missing citation from the first section of Controversies of Rudy Giuliani. All it says is "ref name=Gaynor", and that's what it said when you started the article. Can you tell me where the text you started the article with came from? (Please reply on my talk page.) Thanks. Cgingold 12:31, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, that was what I figured, but I wanted to be sure before I started hunting through the edit history to find the missing citation. I did find the info in question and I've inserted it where it belongs, so that material is now properly cited. Yay. :) Cgingold 00:02, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Joseph W. Alexander
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Joseph W. Alexander, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of the page.

[edit] Gene Stipe
Considering your extensive history with respect to Oklahoma-related Wikipedia articles, I was wondering if you would be willing to assist me with the article I created on former Oklahoma State Senator Gene Stipe. I have searched both Yahoo! and Google looking for information on him beyond his legal and health problems, but I have hit a bit of stumbling block. Any asistance you or any other user affiliated with WikiProject Oklahoma could provide would be most appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 02:26, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] George Washington
Hi, I just came across this edit you made a few days ago. In among some useful changes, you added icons of the modern-day flags of the UK and the US to an article on someone who died in the late 18th century. We have a manual of style section which deprecates using flags like this, and in fact I recently used this on the discussion page there as an example of 'how not to do it'. You may not be aware, but both flags have changed significantly since Washington's day. So using the flags like this is not just completely useless (in terms of utility of the article) but actually misleading to the reader.
It also took me a while to track down your addition because you didn't mention in your edit summary what you had done. You also marked the edit as minor, which it certainly was not. See Help:Minor edit if you are in doubt about what a minor edit is.
Sorry to be so critical, but we are all learning as we go along here and I thought you might value this feedback on this edit. Best wishes, --John (talk) 17:28, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
- I undid your addition of (historically correct) flags; as I said, WP:MOSFLAG deprecates this sort of flag usage. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough about that previously. Thanks for at least using a proper edit summary this time. --John (talk) 22:53, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

- Thanks for your message on my talk page. It's probably easier if we keep the conversation all in one place. An infobox is not a table or a list; the flags are valued where they save space, which is not the case here. What, in your opinion, do the flags add to the article? Or, to put it another way, in which ways is "
.svg/22px-Union_flag_1606_(Kings_Colors).svg.png)
British" better than "British" in an encyclopedia? --John (talk) 23:07, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of John Reif (judge)
A tag has been placed on John Reif (judge) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Pumpmeup 06:30, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] John F. Reif
Hi there Mr. Oklahoma. I think that you were incorrect in moving the page. See Wikipedia:Naming conventions where it states that the name of the article should be the name that the subject is known as. I'm gonnat try to get an admin to move it back, unless you disagree. Let me know what you think. Best, --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 06:45, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, I'll take your word for it, I'm not familiar with the man. But I find it funny that he is better known by his initialled name then by his non-initialled name. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 06:52, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:BradHenry-NationalGuard.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:BradHenry-NationalGuard.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) 05:02, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sooner Slam
Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Sooner Slam, 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.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Major General Harry Wyatt.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Major General Harry Wyatt.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. High on a tree (talk) 18:50, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation
This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.wildlifedepartment.com. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 08:54, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Template:Economy of Mexico requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes.

Please remember to mark your edits as minor if (and only if) they genuinely are minor edits (see Help:Minor edit). Marking a major change as a minor one is considered poor etiquette. The rule of thumb is that only an edit that consists solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearranging of text without modifying content should be flagged as a 'minor edit.'
