[edit] So long

I have unfortunatly decided that wikipedia is taking up too much of my time, and too much of my time on wikipedia results in a negative experience, although I have tried my best to remain as positive and cooperative as possible. I hope that my (half a) proposal on Talk:World War II is looked into, and someone figures out what to do with the sourced propaganda article Economics of fascism.--sansvoix 04:20, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

I would urge you not to give up - too many good users have been bullied into leaving by relentless POV-pushers and propagandists. A wikibreak might help, but the trick to stamping out propaganda is to be persistent and keep coming back... And, by the way, after you've been trying to reason with a user for a long time and got nowhere, you shouldn't assume good faith any more. -- Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 08:58, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Hi Sansvoix, I've unblocked you and I hope no one will restore it. It would be best not to re-add any fair-use images to your page in the meantime, although you can try to dispute that status if you feel it's inappropriate. Doc Glasgow has told me that his involvement is not connected to Gmaxwell (who doesn't appear to be an admin, by the way). Doc Glasgow is a very good admin who is generally very fair and whose judgment I trust. I think if you cooperate with him, things will turn out well for you. I hope you won't leave over this, though I know exactly how you feel. SlimVirgin ^(talk) 16:24, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

No no, this isn't why I left, if anything it was just a nail in the coffin. I am sure Doc Glasgow is a great admin, and I can appreciate his conviction to bring Wikipedia up to certain standards. What my concern here was with other (ie: some not admin) editors. It is unfortunate for me, but my areas of interest here were largly dealing with socio-economic topics, and for some reason the majority of the editors I have had to deal with are adamant "anarcho-capitalists" or have some other fundementalist black-or-white belief, and editied and reverted with an eye to ideology and rhetoric, rather than reality (historical relationships, precedents, statistics, etc). Thank you for your understanding, and keep up your positive effort here!--sansvoix 21:16, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Littleprince-businessman.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Littleprince-businessman.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 07:55, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
