[edit] Johnny Bright

  • You did a GREAT JOB putting up the Johnny Bright page. It has to be only 1 in 100 articles that are as thoroughly researched and put together as this one was. You are a credit to Wikipedia! george 12:31, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikilinks

You don't need to link every occurence of the same subject in an article, ie linking CFL everytime it appears in the article. One link to each subject per section should be more than enough. If there gets to be too many links it can get distracting. Otherwise keep up the good work! Qutezuce 20:53, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

One other thing to note is that you don't have to remove wikilinks to non-existant article (red links) if you feel the subject deserves an article. Excellent work on the BC Lions history! Happy editing. Qutezuce 09:02, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] CFL articles

Hi SunDevilEsq, I wanted to thank you for the great work I've noticed in the past several weeks you've done in Toronto Argonauts and British Columbia Lions. It's great to see some depth and history there, finally. Also, I see you haven't been welcomed yet, so better late than never...

[edit] Excellent Work

I don't know if I've said it before, but I just wanted to thank you for the excellent work you've been doing to CFL articles (and other articles), particularly the BC Lions page. Hopefully every CFL team can get a great history as good as the one you've done for the BC Lions. Qutezuce 08:06, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] CFL

I don't own a copy of the CFL records book, but the libraries up here in Canada keep plenty in circulation, so I can borrow a copy and check anything for you if you need. I guess libraries in Arizona don't stock too many copies of the CFL record book? :) Qutezuce 22:42, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cosel translation

Ask someone at the German Wikipedia to translate a summary of the article in German then cut and paste it into a new entry here. THe people there have been good at translating summaries for me.

[edit] multiple references for Tanzler

I figured out how to get the references condensed into one for each source. I added "name=Swicegood" or "name=Harrison" for the books, and they show up as A, B, C. Take a peek and make sure its correct before I go further. I also have photocopies of material that the family sent me somewhere. I may still have a few of them scanned. I will add them to findagrave, and we can link to findagrave. I dont want to transcribe them and have them deleted again. I can also add them to Google Base. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 20:40, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

Good job! That's exactly what I was looking for when I cited to the references (and I think that's what the other editor was talking about on the Tanzler talk page. I'd love to see Tanzler's actual obituary (we should get that linked for sure - if you can find it). I'm also looking for Celia Hoyos' death date; from Swicegood's book, Nana was last to die in '44 (from Hoyos' immediate family), so Celia must've preceded her (the entire family was wiped out by TB). I wonder if any of the girls' children survived (and if any descendants remain in Key West)? Sundevilesq 04:17, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Information on STBot

Hi! my bot removed the cat Category:African American football players in response to a WP:CFD discussion that was closed today with a consensus of 2 delete(s), 1 keep(s), and 1 speedy rename(s). The deletion discussion can be found at WP:CFD. Thanks! ST47Talk 21:08, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

there IS a deletion review at WP:DRV - from the page:

1. Deletion Review is the process to be used by editors who wish to challenge the outcome of any deletion debate or a speedy deletion unless:

  • They are able to resolve the issue in discussion with the administrator (or other editor) in question (this should be attempted first - courteously invite the deleting admin to take a second look);
  • In the most exceptional cases, posting a message to WP:AN/I may be more appropriate instead. Rapid correctional action can then be taken if the ensuing discussion makes clear it should be.
  • An administrator (or other editor) is correcting a mistake of their own, or has agreed to amend their decision after the kind of discussion mentioned above.

2. Deletion Review is also to be used if significant new information has come to light since a deletion and the information in the deleted article would be useful to write a new article.

This process should not be used simply because you disagree with a deletion debate's reasoning — but instead if you think the debate was interpreted incorrectly by the closer or have some information pertaining to the debate that did not receive an airing during the AfD debate (perhaps because the information was not available at that time). This page is about process, not about content, although in some cases it may involve reviewing content.

If you do happen to do that, and it suceeds, I can instruct the bot to restore all items to the category. Thanks! ST47Talk 10:16, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Steady B V.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Steady B V.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:09, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

The album cover is fair use, and I noted it as such when I uploaded it. I am totally confused as to how to add a "copyright tag." Please advise. Sundevilesq 01:42, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Figured it out and addded tag. Sundevilesq 17:06, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mantronix

Wow! Excellent Job on the Mantronix and Kurtis Mantronik pages! That's great work. On that album cover problem you were having with one of the comp's, I'm not sure But it's possible that an image maybe be loading strangely due to the "&" in the title, it's just a hunch, but you could try to re-upload it with a different title or something. I can't promise anything, but I hope it works! Andrzejbanas 11:21, 12 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Image:BryceWilson.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:BryceWilson.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image 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 image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject 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 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. --feydey 15:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Remixed & Rare (Mantronix).jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Remixed & Rare (Mantronix).jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Fritz S. (Talk) 11:30, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

You can request an image you uploaded yourself to be deleted by adding the {{db-author}} tag to it's description page. --Fritz S. (Talk) 11:04, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hiero did not form in 95 - Souls of Mischief

They were around long before them... they even had a website back then. The article did not state that they formed in 95. Not even close... please re-read the article. I will change the info back soon. There are numerous mentions on SOM and Del albums before 95 about Hieroglyphics and the Hieroglyphics logo on pre-95 albums. Just please re-read that sourced interview. It says nothing about 95.49erInOregon 19:43, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Posted a reply on the SOM talk page... I cited a record that featured them (in print) in 91. To old folks like me, that was a pretty memorable time and that song was also featured and cited in an early 90s skateboard video. 49erInOregon 12:47, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Kurtis Mantronix - Start?

After cleaning up and expanding a pretty sparse article (see Talk:Kurtis Mantronik), I was hoping for AT LEAST a "B" grade on the article, yet it was graded as a "Start." Could you please tell me why you believe it is a Start, and perhaps give me some ideas as to how to upgrade the article to the next level (B or above)? Thanks in advance! Sundevilesq 17:40, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Lately I've been rating large groups of articles, so to be honest most of my assessments are based on length a quick overview. That being said, what really made me rate Kurtis Mantronik as start-class was the lack of information on his albums. I was looking for more detail on each album (a nice example of a well-organized article is De La Soul). More details of this nature would likely garnish a 'B'-rating. Though it should be noted, this is all my opinion and someone else might disagree. To have the article rated by someone else, list it on the WikiProject hip hop Assessment page.--NPswimdude500 23:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your honesty in regard to the rating on the page. More detailed info on the Mantronix albums is listed in a separate article (see Mantronix). Kurtis Mantronik has only one solo album to date, and I believe it was discussed sufficiently in his article. Lastly, I tried the link to the Hip Hop Assessment page for another review, but it just took me to the main "Assessment" page. I really think the article needs to be reviewed again. Thanks for your help! Sundevilesq 18:35, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Ahh, sorry about that, didn't copy all of the link. Here's the correct link: Wikipedia:WikiProject_hip_hop/Assessment#Requesting_an_assessment. Yeah I did look at the Mantronix article. I didn't really know how to properly account for that when rating the Kurtis Mantronik article. I suggest listing it for reassessment.--NPswimdude500 05:10, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use problem with Image:Al Wilson.jpg

I notice you uploaded the image Image:Al Wilson.jpg with the {{Sportsposter}} fair use image tag. However, it appears that this tag is totally unrelated to the content of the image, and as a result it may qualify for speedy deletion. Image:Al Wilson.jpg has been tagged for deletion, and may have been deleted by the time you see this message.

If you can find a valid tag that expresses why Image:Al Wilson.jpg can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the {{Sportsposter}} tag that you have placed on it with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{Non-free fair use in|article name that the image is used in}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the image. If the image has been deleted, you can reupload it but please ensure you place the correct tag on it. However, you must not remove the speedy deletion notice. Thank you, and please feel free to continue contributing to Wikipedia. —Remember the dot (talk) 23:20, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

(replying to message on my talk page) — I've removed the {{db-badfairuse}} tag. It's not immediately obvious that this is a sports poster. You should clarify that and add a fair use rationale. —Remember the dot (talk) 19:59, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Jamie_Taras.JPG

There IS no problem with the Image:Jamie_Taras.JPG image. As is indicated, it is a SPORTING EVENTS POSTER of JAMIE TARAS (taken from a screen shot of a CBC broadcast of a CFL game in 1999), and has been properly identified and tagged as such. I don't know what the problem is...I followed the Wiki guidelines TO THE LETTER. Please remove your tag on the image. Sundevilesq 17:46, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Chopped and Screwed.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Chopped and Screwed.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.

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 insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

[edit] Jerky Boys images without rationales

I have tagged the following images as {{no rationale}}, because they do not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the images to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description pages.

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:Mantronik & Chamonix.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Mantronik & Chamonix.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.

[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Mystikal-Tarantula.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Mystikal-Tarantula.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:13, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Junior Ah You

Thanks for the nice work (as usual)! A considerable improvement on the small stub there a week ago.

[edit] Player pages format

I wonder if, sometime when you have some time, you could have a look at a WikiProject Canadian football/Player pages format style guide I developed and announced at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Canadian football. I'd like to get some feedback and improvements made to it before linking to it on the WP:CFL main page but think it would ultimately be nice to have a sort of template of what an ideal article would look like.

[edit] Johnny Bright

You know I've long been a fan of your Johnny Bright work. I think it is easily a GA, it just needs to go through the nomination process. It may also be an A or FA quality but Image:1962 Topps CFL Card (Bright).jpg needs a fair use rationale. You may also wish to seek a WP:Peer review. It would be nice to have a true CFL FA and this is a clear contender. Cheers! DoubleBlue (Talk) 03:25, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
