[edit] Han-Na Chang

I added the link back in, but made a notation the link is in Korean. User:Zscout370 (Return Fire) 22:01, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] re: Double

I agree — the indiscriminate capitalization of names by Japanese people (or companies) is annoying; and, so much so, that we have WP:MOS-JA#Capitalization of words in roman script which addresses WP:MOSCAPS and WP:MOSTM in the context of Japanese names. So, for Wikipedia, feel free to de-cap words, just like your personal song collection. Neier 15:09, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

To rename an article, there is a "move" tab at the top of the page beside the edit tab, etc. When it is finished, it automatically creates a redirect from the old name to the new name. In the move summary, I always put something like Remove stylistic capitalizaion, per [[WP:MOSCAPS]] and [[WP:MOSTM]].
Most of the time, the move tab works fine; but, occasionally, there may be an article or an older redirect at the new name, and you cannot complete the move (a red error message will appear). In that case you have to go to Requested Moves and ask an admin to take care of it. Capitalization fixes qualify as speedy moves, so, there is no need to go through the 5-day debate process on the article's talk page.
There is more help on moving pages at Help:Moving a page if I've left anything out. I'm glad that you'll be able to fix those pages which drive you nuts. :-) If you encounter any opposition, pointing to the pages I linked above should resolve any conflicts. Neier 22:05, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image linking problem

{{helpme}} I'm having trouble adding an image link in an infobox.

See this page for an example. The link to the album cover (the same JPG as used in the article Seo In-Young) resolves to a page to add the image, rather than to Image:Inyoungalb.jpg.

I'm following the documentation for Template:Infobox Album, and patterned this off of the Hitori Yori Futari article, where the same syntax works fine.

Clues?

For the image size of the cover, it is not accepting 200px, so you just have to remove the 'Cover size' line. I have fixed it for you :) Have a nice day! E talk 07:11, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Don't hesitate to contact me with any problems you may have. E talk 22:56, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Castor oil

Thank you for your note about maintaining the quality of the Talk page for this article. I should probably just forget about this article since it is a relatively minor piece, but the conflict of interest, POV and belligerent stance of Castoroil101 with me and other contributors just won't let me go. I was tempted to ask for comments on Castoroil101's behavior, but that seems like a lot of effort. Thanks again.Silverchemist 06:26, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Katrina disambiguation pages

Hi Terry, I just wanted to draw your attention to the 2 disambig pages concerning Katrina (I accidentally stumbled across the discussion). I re-worked them both a bit and was hoping this would address your concerns. Let me know. R. Baley 22:42, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:AmdahlLogo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:AmdahlLogo.gif. 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. BetacommandBot 14:40, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] castor oil

actually the {{reflist}} template was created to accommodate the <references/> function and is much more appropriate for this article per wp:foot. also i couldn't find anywhere that it is 'obsolete' or otherwise deprecated. cheers! --emerson7 | Talk 06:40, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Four Months Later…

[edit] table of contents in Punahou School Alumni

Thanks! I didn't know how to do that but wanted it done very much! User:Ronaldloui (hmm, how do I timestamp this...?)

yeah, those images justified right look nice too. I sort of like the band of images on the main page even though they have no names (they give a nice overview of the diverse population that has been a hallmark of the school), but will endeavor to distribute the images across the subordinate. i am headed into the M's of the alumni directory, but the eyes hurt (small print). i've started doing citation counts to weed the lightweights from the heavy scholars. it's a good exercise -- i had no idea harnish, bear, or tseng were punahou, even though they are my academic colleagues and i have their books and papers! i've even skipped their colloquia... but there will always be problems, such as jm chu who writes books and is a fulbright, but does not get cited. in the end, the 2-page alumni solution is good because everyone can aspire to the second page, but really only a few names belong on the front (and the correlation with individual wiki pages is not actually all that good! -- compare the commander of the 117th at normandy vs. a recent graduate who has a college filmmaking award -- the latter has a wiki page, but doesn't even make my 2nd alumni page). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.143.28.220 (talk) 22:59, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] images on James D. Watson

I was thinking it is odd that there is no image of a double helix in the article....if Watson had not played a role in discovery of the double helix, he probably would have led an unremarkable life, we probably would not have heard of him and Wikipedia would not have an article about him. --JWSchmidt 23:54, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Indigenous Intellectual Property Issue

You made minor edit on Green Island, Queensland, thanks. Not sure if you noticed in that article's talk page that I've been worrying away at Aboriginal knowledge economy/ intellectual property implications and ramifications of postings such as this - given the GFDL we agree to when making such entries.

Seeking you've been categorised, or have categorised yourself as a Wikipedia intellectual property lawyer, I was wondering if you might be able to lend comment, perhaps assist mitigate/mediate GFDL regarding traditional knowledge/indigenous intellectual property??

I refer you particularly to Wikipedia_talk:General_disclaimer#Traditional_Knowledge, and Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Traditional_Knowledge_Disclaimer. With thanks, in appreciation!! Bruceanthro (talk) 00:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Disputed fair use rationale for Image:ParkJungAh-Yeah-cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:ParkJungAh-Yeah-cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 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 (talk) 21:47, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vexatious litigation

I certainly understand why Leo Stoller is associated with "vexatious litigation", but that hardly qualifies as a category of person in List of Jewish American businesspeople. It didn't look very professional for Wikipedia, so I reverted your change. No offense -- don't sue! ;-) All the best, – Quadell (talk) (random) 13:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

We have similar problems with people who are notable primarily for having been victims of crimes, or having committed crimes. Few people want to be classified as "victims" or "criminals", and if that becomes an official category anywhere on Wikipedia, people will want to add Bill Gates to "criminals" for his arrest for driving without a license. Sometimes it's safest to be least specific, unfortunately, and use "other". Anyway, thanks for keeping an eye on all this. Out of curiosity, have you met Stoller? All the best, – Quadell (talk) (random) 17:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joshua Hendy

Thanks, yes, I have some good refs for this article, and it would be easy to reference each and every one of the statements made in the article, but Wiki guidelines make it clear that one shouldn't reference every statement, but only those likely to be challenged. Excessive references don't add anything to articles but only clutter them up and are likely to irritate the reader and discourage him from checking Wiki references in future.

Since the provided references are fairly short, it's pretty easy to confirm any of the statements made in the article anyhow. If there's some statement in particular you have doubts about, let me know and I'll point you to the appropriate reference. Regards, Gatoclass (talk) 23:28, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, yeah, as you noticed, I already included those :)
If you have an interest in the subject, you might want to take a look at the informational brochure I have now included at the top of the reference list. Some interesting info and very nice photos of some of the company's equipment. They sure built some big valves! Gatoclass (talk) 01:52, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Elizabeth K

It is extremely unlikely that her husband will be elected president, therfore your inclusion violates speculation of future events. Please refrain from adding this material when it involves a future event that has almost zero chance of occuring in the future. Arzel (talk) 00:07, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

You disagree? That is not a very good argument. Can you at least read WP:CRYSTAL which states quite clearly. Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation. All articles about anticipated events must be verifiable, and the subject matter must be of sufficiently wide interest that it would merit an article if the event had already occurred. Arzel (talk) 04:14, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of The Pop Shop Gallery & Stuido

A tag has been placed on The Pop Shop Gallery & Stuido requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

[edit] James Watson link

The red link I added to James Watson (DNA: The Secret of Life) was actually an article I was just about to save, but my FireFox has now frozen up completely such that I can't even get the text out of it (or close it!). FYI however, the red links page you linked to says I should link to a page that I intend to create, so don't be too overzealous removing these things (sometimes I also create a talk page before I've saved the page, for example, and some articles get deleted before the author finishes fleshing them out). Sadly I'm too annoyed at losing the article that I probably won't be recreating it for some time, so I'll leave it blank, and probably only add the link again after I've saved it.

Yikes, thank you for finding the quote. I'm not sure if he echoed her statement but the ref has her quote so that's better anyway. Not sure what I had seen but my apologies and thanks for catching it. Benjiboi 02:32, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Ronnie Lake

I have nominated Ronnie Lake, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ronnie Lake. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. Redfarmer (talk) 19:14, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Restoring deleted articles

Hi TJRC - you wrote: Hi, Grutness. I saw your comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ronnie Lake that very little is lost on Wikipedia, even if the article is deleted. I know that's true when text is deleted from an article, but is that also the case where the article itself is deleted? Can a mere editor obtain the text of a deleted article?

No, but it's one of the extra tools that admins have. If the character does turn out to be a regular character, find a friendly admin (like me), explain the situation and point them at the AFD debate. Chances are they'd be willing to restore the deleted material. Generally the only time that deleted articles are wiped completely is for legal reasons (e.g., if the article was libellous). Grutness...wha? 00:13, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] nag boxes

I see you're a fan of those big ugly nag boxes, even when they've been sitting atop articles for more than a year without causing anybody to actually do anything to improve the article.

That's my argument against them: They are often used as an alternative to improvement - somebody sees a crummy article, slaps a nag box atop it, and then feels like they've helped, thus removing their incentive to actually do some editing.

Aside from boxes which are needed to warn readers to take extreme caution (e.g., NPOV) they do more harm than good. Lesser subjects, such as the need for in-bound links or more references, should be put on the Talk page. (In my opinion, of course - many disagree.) - DavidWBrooks (talk) 19:13, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Tomboy (band)

A tag has been placed on Tomboy (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

[edit] Tomboy (band)

Hi TJRC - you wrote:

I had an article that I wrote last night deleted out from under me based on a claim of non-notability. This is frustrating, I've lost all the work. You've told me before that a deleted article can be retrieved by a friendly admin. Can you do that and get me a copy? I'd like to edit it in my sandbox, address the notability issue and replace it. If it gets eventually deleted after a discussion on the merits, I'm fine with that, but this was way unilateral. Gheezh, I know there's "speedy deletion," but it's pretty absurd to delete something just a few hours after it's created, advising the creator that he can use the {{hangon}} template, but deleting it anyway so that's not possible. And this was deleted overnight. There was never any chance to respond. If this is the practice, what's the point of the hangon template?

I've put the article at User:TJRC/Tomboy (band) - you should be able to work on it there without problems. As to {{hangon}}, unfortunately there's often not much lag between a CSD template going on and someone coming along and deleting an article. I suppose there should be a lag of say, 24 hours, but often articles are so obviously deletable that there's never been an official time lag put in place. the downside of that, of course, is that sometimes articles get deleted simply because two editors (a non-admin applying the notice and an admin doing the actual deletion) independently think an article is speediable. As for it being overnight, that's one of the things about WP being worldwide. It may have been overnight for you, but not for the other editors involved. {{Hangon}} does work, but unfortunately there's ot always the chance to use it. :/ Grutness...wha? 21:50, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Helen Keller photo

The copyright law and commentary pages I've read don't call out this exception, other than the vague "unless it was already in the public domain" exception.

Did the old law cover photographs which were never published prior to 1998?

Please update-and-improve any Wikipedia and Wikimedia copyright-related FAQs, with pointers to the old laws and any relevant case law, so others don't fall into this same confusion in the future. Thanks.

{{PD-USGov-NASA}} is for images, not text. I don't think we need to include this attribution template directly onto articles, especially since that text is open to change from people outside NASA.

[edit] van Rossum vs. Van Rossum

Regarding your edits to Python (programming language), please re-read the page you yourself cited (http://www.python.org/~guido/):

Spelling: my last name is two words, and I'd like keep it that way, the spelling on some of my credit cards notwithstanding. Dutch spelling rules dictate that when used in combination with my first name, "van" is not capitalized: "Guido van Rossum". But when my last name is used alone to refer to me, it is capitalized, for example: "As usual, Van Rossum was right."

Note the last sentence. In all of the occurrences of "Van Rossum," "Van" should be capitalized; all the occurrences of "Guido van Rossum," it should not. Tlesher (talk) 18:27, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alphonso Jackson

I've reverted your revert of the resignation statement in the section Alphonso Jackson#Conflict of interest investigation, for two reasons:

  1. The statement's reference repeats the tag used in the introduction, and so creates a redundant entry in the "References" section. If the reference is to be used more than once, it should be given a name and referred to by that name in subsequent references; see WP:FOOT#Naming a ref tag so it can be used more than once.
  2. Until there is a verifiable connection between the alleged conflict of interest and the resignation, any talk about the resignation has no place in that section.

[edit] House Report 94-1476

Thanks! Would love to have some more proofreaders inspect the page scans — see s:Index:H.R. Rep. No. 94-1476 if you’ve got any free time. Tarmstro99 (talk) 15:59, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

The color key for the index page is explained at s:Template:PageQuality. In brief: green = all done; yellow = probably OK, just needs another pair of eyes to look it over and spot any problems (and promote it to green if there are none); red = major formatting and cleanup still to do (generally these are still raw OCR output — and furthermore, the remaining red pages are all part of a section of the document where the OCR’ing is especially poor due to the nature of the original content). If you want to go after the low-hanging fruit, go with the yellow pages; I’ll be tackling the red ones a few at a time. Thanks for any help you have the time to offer, and I’m pleased to hear of your interest in the work. I teach Copyright also, and it’s rather surprising that this report hasn’t been freely available online before now.

Re Paul McCartney - that would be me, that it would! ;~) I'm afraid I still use whilst in ordinary conversation (and thus my writing). You may or may not be pleased to know that my article writing has somewhat reduced over the last year, so the presence of archaic Brit-Eng need not be corrupting the readership of the United States...

[edit] Conclusion: Image placeholders centralized discussion

Hi. I'm sending this to you because you participated in the Centralized discussion on image placeholders that ended on 23 April.

That discussion must produce a conclusion.

We originally asked "Should the addition of this box [example right] be allowed? Does the placeholder system and graphic image need to be improved to satisfy policies and guidelines for inclusion? Is it appropriate to some kinds of biographies, but not to others?" (See introduction).

Conclusions to centralized discussions are either marked as 'policy', 'guideline', 'endorsed', 'rejected', 'no consensus', or 'no change' etc. We should now decide for this discussion.

Please read and approve or disapprove the section here: Conclusion --Kleinzach (talk) 11:15, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Please note this message conforms to WP:CANVASSING and has not been sent to anyone has not already participated in the centralized discussion.

[edit] copyright

According to answers.com, copyright, verb, means "To secure a copyright for." Under current law, a copyright is secured upon creation. Put another way, works are automatically copyrighted. So, use of "copyrighted" or "owns the copyright to" is a matter of style and not necessarily correctness. ColdFusion650 (talk) 23:05, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rollback

After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback can only be used to revert vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback may be removed at any time.

If you do not want rollback, then contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some information on how to use rollback, you can view this page. I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, just leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Happy editing!
