[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Saturdays warrior.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Saturdays warrior.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

[edit] Proposed Changes to the article Book of Mormon

Hello Tea and crumpets:

I'm putting this note here because I saw your name in the edit history of the Book of Mormon article. There have been two "batches" of changes to the article recently. As I explained in the Talk, I reversed these changes, not because of the substance of the changes but because of the "process". Talk:Book of Mormon#Reversal of Changes

I'm hoping you and others will look at the substance of these changes. I don't want the people who made the changes to think their efforts were reversed and then simply ignored. (And I'm not able to comment seriously on the proposed changes.)

The two batches of changes I'm referring to are the ones made on December 15 by 24.2.75.193, and on December 17 by DJ Clayworth. (Because the changes were reversed, the best place to see them is through the article history.)

Thank you, Wanderer57 (talk) 18:44, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

PS You may find this amusing. I saw your note "I am an autodidact" and thought, "I wonder what that is, maybe that's something I should take up".

So I followed the link and realized that autodidactism was one thing I could not take a course to learn. W

[edit] DYK

[edit] Help please

Hello! Can you constructively help me with this? I am slightly completely unprepared for it.

[edit] Portal:Africa Image

Hi. I just wanted to thank you for your support on the Africa Portal image. I made it because i think portals have the potential to look more attractive. Of course some people totally disagree. User CJ for instance has been chasing my works on the base of copyrights for the wikipedia logo. Which I have found baseless since i am not using it for commercial purposes or outside the wikipedia. The logo is being added within the Wikipedia and i do not see how it infringes any copyright. I have some other images in the Asia portal and the Latin America portal. I will be adding more images to the other portals whenever I have time. The Europe portal became a controversy because another user wanted to add his. I lost the feud because some comments found my banner a little unreadable and I totally respect those opinions. Anyway thanks.Camilo Sanchez (talk) 19:51, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Redflags.svg

Bulgaria definitely has red in its flag. The red originates from the Pan-Slavic colours - red, blue and white, but in the Bulgarian falg the blue has been replaced by green. Could you possibly fix the image? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.36.9.144 (talk) 15:58, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for alerting me. I took care of it. -Tea and crumpets ^{(t c)} 03:40, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
