[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:NasmithGandalfBalrog1.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:NasmithGandalfBalrog1.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) 19:06, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re: "Nazgûl" or similar-sounding names as real names in the real world: relevant?

Dwarvish is based largely on the Hebrew language, so I've at least got reason to believe Nazgûl being based on Arabic or something else in the area is possible. Octane [improve me?] 18.03.08 1436 (UTC)


[edit] Tagalog Wikipedia

Tagalog Wikipedia Campaign March 2008!

Tagalog Wikipedia is campaigning for your participation in writing, editing, assessing and translating articles!
The purpose of this campaign is to expand and improve articles at Tagalog Wikipedia. Your participation will be highly appreciated by the community.

There are over 16,000 articles to view, read, review, edit, and expand, so please visit the Wikipedia Café and the WikiProject Philippines at Tagalog Wikipedia to help out!

The campaign includes seeking your assistance in:

Or just anything you can do to help us just like what you are doing there at the English Wikipedia.

Thank you in advance and regards, Tagalog Wikipedia Community

Finally, Wikipedia is the 7th most visited site in the Philippines. Then why is it that the Tagalog Wikipedia, the Wikipedia in your own language remains unknown to most of the Filipinos? The mission of this campaign is to change that. Will you join us?

[edit] Philippine-American war first shots, William Grayson, etc.

Hi.

You and I had an exchange recently in Talk:Philippine-American_War#First shots. I've been looking for more info on this, and have today stumbled across what looks like a good source. See the note mentioning the book America at War: The Philippines, 1898-1913 at User:Wtmitchell/Work1, and also this link.

I've just quickly glanced at a Manila street map, but the account given there seems to disagree with recent revisionism reported here.

Also, for some detailed info from sources other than Filipino historians writing long after the events, see the following two books (full text available online)

Cheers. -- Boracay Bill (talk) 08:01, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Treebeard

Hi I've completely re-written the Literature section in the Treebeard article I need some reliable sources for the text in the that section only. I'll re-write the other sections and hopefully get it up to GA status.

(The Watcher in the Water article was also very well done. Thank you for the sources in that article.) LOTRrules (talk) 23:56, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] War problem

Hi, different sources say differently, but did america leave philippines after world war 2 and what year, date, name of agreement? 1913 was end to fighting, what was the reason? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.99.3.81 (talk) 23:16, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] ME horses merge

Hi Uthanc. The merge of the ME horses popped up on my watchlist. I was wondering, as it was one of the B-class articles (see Talk:List of Middle-earth horses), was there a reason for merging this? I'm worried that the list of animals might end up a bit long. Carcharoth (talk) 01:33, 27 April 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:BakshiAragorn.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:BakshiAragorn.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 19:02, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Middle earth prods

What do you mean by "for now"? Judgesurreal777 (talk) 03:50, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

the only way to catch articles that were prodded and can be merged is to check prodsum yourself. Fortunately, looking every 3 days or so is sufficient. DGG (talk) 11:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
