[edit] Internal links

I noticed on some of your recent edits, that you are using unnecessary underscores on internal links (such as [[Portuguese_language|Portuguese]], when you should use [[Portuguese language|Portuguese]].) To learn more, see Wikipedia:Editing FAQ#How do I make links.3F. (EhJJ)^TALK 18:23, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Deleting images in Wikipedia

Although it is recommended that you be careful not to make any errors when uploading images, mistakes sometimes happen. If you would like to have an image you uploaded deleted, the best thing to do is to add {{db-author}} to that image and it will automatically be listed for speedy deletion.

[edit] Problem with image

OK, I have no idea what was going wrong with that image, but I've uploaded it here now: Image:Nero Burning ROM screenshot2.png. Cheers, JACO PLANE • 2008-03-28 13:32

[edit] Screenshot themes

I have replaced your image at Image:Transmission_screenshot_ubuntu.png with one using the GNOME default Clearlooks theme. I think that having the default Ubuntu theme is wrong as Ubuntu != FOSS. Also mine is of a later version of Transmission (in fact a SVN version). bruce89 (talk) 00:22, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for updating the link to Ubuntu in my CUPS user box at User:Ahunt/CUPS!! - Ahunt (talk) 22:42, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Link placement on wikis

Hi - you probably should be aware that a bot is monitoring the placement of cdimage.ubuntu.com links across wikis. Thanks --Herby ^{talk thyme} 12:56, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pages moves

Hello. I was just wondering why you are moving lots of Linux distribution pages? I noticed you moved the Ubuntu page recently, and have just moved the Fedora page, but I can see no actual reason for you doing this? ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 14:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

I've replied on my talk page. ~~ [Jam]^[talk] 16:40, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ubuntu-restricted-extras merger

Greetings,

I have merged the ubuntu-restricted-extras page into the main Ubuntu page under the heading Availability of Proprietary Software. The content presnted is insufficient for its own article page, lacking both sufficient volume and notability. Latiligence (talk) 17:00, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Forgot to mention: links to ubuntu-restricted-extras have all been updated as well. Latiligence (talk) 17:01, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Ad-aware 2007 screenshot.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Ad-aware 2007 screenshot.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. --06:02, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] talk page

No problem and history now merged to this page here. With the 'author request' tag i just didn't realize that this was intended as housekeeping deletion for a history merge. If you want you can now reuse User_talk:SF007/Archive_1 for copy and paste archiving. --Tikiwont (talk) 08:16, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Karaboudjan move

Hi, I see you have moved Karaboudjan to Karaboudjan (band). I disagree with this move, since there is no article about Karaboudjan being anything other than a band, and that the shorter title should be used if possible. Would you be willing to give your explanation? Thanks in advance, Zouavman Le Zouave 17:32, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi, sorry for time I took to reply to your message... Regarding the change of the name in the article I changed it because I was considering to create an article about Karaboudjan, the ship from the adventures of Tintin, so I changed pre-emptively, to make the article "Karaboudjan" a disambiguation page or about the ship from tintin... If you really disagree with that you can change it back, no problem at all since there is no article about the ship yet. SF007 (talk) 01:04, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Oh okay, if you're planning on creating an article about the ship, then no worries. :) Good luck! Zouavman Le Zouave 07:19, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

OK, then I'm glad you asked and didn't just reverted my move without even considereing the reasons why I moved it. Thanks ;) SF007 (talk) 18:15, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

^^ This is what I generally tend to do (apart from vandalism of course, but your move was clearly good faith). If you need any help on this article, I have the whole Tintin collection, it might help. ;) Zouavman Le Zouave 19:14, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] lego digital designer

Hey, I was wondering how you managed to get LDD to work with Vista... I've been trying and trying all day and I just can't manage to get it to work. It always comes up with the error that it cannot open and must be closed. Thanks Banana Girl (talk) 02:10, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, first of all, sorry for the very late reply, regarding Lego Digital Designer: I simply downloaded and installed the software! :) I had no problem at all, I installed it on Windows XP, Vista RTM, and Vista SP1, it worked fine everytime, it must be a problem with your software or Hardware... Note that you need Quick Time installed... Can you at least install it? you can try to extract the files from the installer with WinRAR, since the setup.exe is just a self-extracting zip file... and then try to install it... maybe some files of your windows installation are corrupted or something... You can also try a portable version I made (with VMware North Star), it should work on Vista RTM or SP1, here is the link:

Oh, and of course I did not put any virus or things like that in it, but you should be carefull and always have a good and up to date antivirus, if you have any problems or something, feel free to ask ;) SF007 (talk) 18:44, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! Actually, i feel kinda bad now... I had tried LDD LeoCad and other types of programs and NONE would work. I gave up and reset my computer for a service pack and it worked! All of them!!! Thanks for your help anyway! That portable one may come in handy though;... Banana Girl (talk) 02:36, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Ad-aware 2007 screenshot.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Ad-aware 2007 screenshot.png. 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) 09:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
