[edit] Your question

I saw a question you'd asked, about notability. It is a bit of a nebulous concept, but it's also a very important one; obviously we shouldn't have an article about what Joe dropped on his shoe this morning (granted, not all questions of notability are so clear-cut). The relevant guideline in the case you asked about would be found at WP:BIO. Luna Santin 18:01, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 100 Inning Game

I think the article needs some references to external news coverage if it is going to be considered notable. Please look for and add those. Thanks, NawlinWiki 16:30, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:100inningLogo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:100inningLogo.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:

Hi. Re: your article, 100 Inning Game, it appears that it is not on your watchlist. Please consider adding it since unwatched pages are vulnerable to vandalism. Thanks!  :) —Wknight94 (talk) 10:38, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Infinience

Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia by creating the page Infinience. Your test worked, and has been or will soon be removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. Please see WP:CORP. NawlinWiki 15:05, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

Oops, I am sorry. I read WP:CORP, and will abide by it accordingly from now on. Thank you! -- Ubergenius 15:11, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] welcome!

Big shiny welcome!

Hi, and welcome to the Firefly WikiProject! As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Firefly's coverage of topics.

A few features that you might find helpful:

There are a variety of interesting things to do within the project; you're free to participate however much—or little—you like:

  • Starting some new articles? Our style guidelines outline some things to include.
  • Want to know how good our articles are? The assessment department is working on rating the quality of every Firefly article in Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask another fellow Browncoat, and we'll be happy to help you. Again, welcome! We look forward to seeing you around! Keep flyin'plange 01:14, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Are you involved with Into the Black?

I just heard from someone that Joss gave his approval? Is this true? That would make a big difference on putting it on the main Firefly page. But regardless, we should definitely put it on the Browncoat page... --plange 01:48, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

I am not directly involved, no, but I have been following the project since January, and yes, Joss Whedon gave his direct approval using Whedonesque.com, his blog site. I will find the permalink to the entry that is somewhere in the message board of ITB. Additionally, Nathon Fillian not only voiced his support for ITB, but also gave some of his own money to help finance the project. -- Ubergenius 16:26, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
If you can dig up that link on Whedonesque, that would be great. --plange 16:31, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Quincy Grays

A tag has been placed on Quincy Grays, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of either already posted material, or of material that was previously deleted in a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how Quincy Grays is different from all other articles, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:Quincy Grays saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions. Calton | Talk 11:38, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:100innings logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:100innings logo.gif. 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.

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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Indians.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Indians.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. User:Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr) 13:59, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

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

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Boston Hurricanes.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 04:04, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Cutters.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Cutters.jpg. 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 12:24, 5 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 12:24, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Bmbl logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Bmbl logo.gif. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
