[edit] Biodiesel

Thank you for expanding on the Indonesian palm oil topic; this was useful addition to the page. Other sections have been removed, however. Two of the references vaguely referred to "biofuel" crops, with one of them mentioning ethanol. Unless these papers specifically mention biodiesel or oilseed crops, they're not appropriate on the Biodiesel page. If the publications do make the proper distinctions, please edit and repost. Note, I attempted to access the original documents prior to deletion. I was able to access the overview, but the full text PDF was corrupted.--E8 (talk) 07:49, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Although not biodiesel specific the reference from the University of Minnesota is appropriate for the article because the primary topic is the overwhelming estimate of carbon debt related to deforestation. Supplying biodiesel to the United States and Europe is resulting in deforestation.[1][2][3] The carbon debt estimate is not a vague reference. Because biodiesel manufacture is having an increasingly major impact globally as a biofuel, articles about biofuel can be appropriate for the article. Would you let me reintroduce this material minus the inappropriate ethanol related study from Princeton? - Steve3849 talk 10:07, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Nice work. Your augmentation to the deforestation argument seems appropriate and sound; thank you for clarifying and detailing. I withdraw objection to this portion of the content. My concerns about the "carbon estimate" remain, however. There is substantial variation in carbon intensity by crop (and in the accounting). If you have the original document, please email (pdf) it to me so I can look it over. Perhaps it would be best to more this post to the Talk page, including what you intend to add to the main. I know of at least one other editor that would be interested in working to clarify this issue (and he's more read in this specific area than me). —Preceding unsigned comment added by E8 (talk • contribs) 19:16, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Critters05.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Critters05.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) 06:15, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Deadweight Stroking the Moon.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content 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:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free 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 non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content 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, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 00:10, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Polly, you're putting me to work. :) - Steve3849 talk 16:48, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Album cover art is accepted because it is not replaceable (as long as it is low resolution) ... which this image is. - Steve3849 talk 06:49, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Good Job on the Human Highway article

I have to complement you on your excellent job on the article for Human Highway. Do you have any inside knowledge about when this classic will get to DVD (probably from one of those cheap-$1 DVD makers)? -TheOrgg —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.79.146.128 (talk) 15:53, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. Sorry, I've not heard of a DVD release for Human Highway. - Steve3849 talk 20:55, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
