[edit] Pokémon

Thank you for editting Pokémon, in future, please use edit summaries. Cheers, Highway Rainbow Sneakers 08:21, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] El Tigre

Regarding your edits to El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, as you see, I thank you for your edits, however, as you can see, in the infobox, you deleted Mexico as origin country. In effect, the show comes partly from Mexico, as it is were the publisher company, Mexopolis is located. Please refrain to erase things that are accurate. 201.218.79.120 (talk) 18:29, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Publisher company?? As for as I know, the show is completely from the US, seeing as Nickelodeon created, funded and produced the show originally for America. Unless it was co-produced by a Mexican company FOR Mexico, I see no reason to list it under 'Country of origin'. Smash (talk) 20:06, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] PLEASE slow down the categorization and read this

PLEASE, a lot of your categorizations of articles are unnecessary because they are redundant. An article doesn't need to have a category which is already a subcategory of another one. Please read the guidelines about categories and revert the contributions which you did that are concerned by this issue. Kariteh 17:43, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

What are you talking about? Smash 19:43, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Articles must not be in both a category "A" and category "B" if "B" is already a subcategory of "A". ...I'm probably not explaining it very well. But just take the time to read the guideline page I linked, it's long but necessary (because categorization is a complicated stuff), and at such a rate it's tedious for other people to revert the "mistakes" you may or may not have made.:
Well, take the example of the Chocobo games for instance. If Category:Chocobo games is categorized in Category:Video games developed in Japan, then there is not need to put Chocobo Racing, Chocobo Stallion, Chocobo Collection, etc. in the Category:Video games developed in Japan, because these articles are already in the Category:Chocobo games. See what I mean?
Also, this reasoning is also valid for the Category:Japan exclusive video games: there is no need to put an article in Category:Video games developed in Japan when it is already in the Category:Japan exclusive video games. Kariteh 19:52, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Oh, well, what's done is done. Smash 19:55, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Er, no, what's done has to be fixed, and it's going to take a while. Kariteh 19:57, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, well, good luck with that. Smash 19:59, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free use disputed for Image:Apeescape.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Apeescape.jpg. 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 19:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TMNT

Regarding the TMNT (2003 TV series) article, I understand what you were saying about the section you deleted, however, I think that you should make an appoint to edit certain information rather than deleting it entirely from the article, seeing as though someone else worked hard to put it together. Place the information where a fits rather than just deleting it. Thank you. CH 16:31, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

If you're trying to keep the information up, at least make an "International versions" section or something like that to add it in. "Japanese version" just doesn't make the article look neat. Smash 17:09, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Oh, okay. I just didn't want to add one thing into the section entitled "international", seeing as though I only have information based on the japanese version at the moment, and no other dubs. But I see your point. CH 17:23, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Boysbedvdcover.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Boysbedvdcover.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. Project FMF (talk) 17:52, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Berniemac.PNG

Thanks for uploading Image:Berniemac.PNG. 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}} 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 20:53, 4 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Project FMF (talk) 20:53, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
