[edit] License tagging for Image:Albert.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Albert.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. 17:04, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] not sure

I'm not sure what you mean by It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with Ace Combat X: Skies of Deception. If you mean by adding the link to the page I've done that.Sam ov the blue sand 23:55, 30 November 2006 (UTC)Template:Emot

[edit] Your edit to Henry Hill (mobster)

On December 5, 2006, you reverted Henry Hill (mobster) back to the state as it was in November, 2005. I'm guessing you saw the recent vandalism by 24.20.46.134 to military discharge, and then also reverted their ancient vandalism from Nov 16, 2005 - causing the article to revert to an ancient state.[1] Please be careful when the vandalism is not the "top" edit.

[edit] Brokes

They were different people; however, one of them is notable, and the other is notable almost entirely as his brother. I looked up his military careet, and it consists largely of being assistant Quarter-master general in various campaigns; he wasn't even guilty of scandalous misconduct. Therefore, since all the facts in one article are in the other, a redirect is customary. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:50, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Feel free to take out the redirect if you find a claim to notability, of course. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:55, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] George William Rud

I would prefer that the Wikify tag is kept in place, and that you also correctly Stub the article while it is a work in progress as per the Manual of Style. thewinchester 19:15, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blunt and refs

This is a difficult page. I'm not really the type to hunt down refs. I usually stick to album pages, gnomish organization/creating chapters on pages, and typos. However, the way I see it, the first place to start would be finding proof that "blunt" is used to refer to cigars of this sort. This should prove easy. Next, prove that cannabis may be smoked in these cigars. The last, and not all that important, task is finding refs for each of those idiotic slang terms. I personally hate to use blunts. It's a good way to waste a lot of weed real quick, and disguise its pure flavor with tobacco. Give me a decent chillum any day. However, it would make a decent project if you're interested, and I, as a general contributor to cannabis articles, salute you. Just let me know if you need any help with anything.

Thank you for reporting copyright violations (e.g. Henry Doelger). This is to let you know that the contents of an article should be blanked/replaced when adding the {{copyvio}} template. Happy editing, and merry christmas! :) - Mailer Diablo 13:58, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Janusz Zurakowski

Your comment==Why POV== This article, a number of times, used words like noble, brave, reknowned, etc, which is quite inappropriate, rather like desribing a general as a badass or coward, etc. The opinion that Zurakowski was noble, etc, is self proved by his actions and medals (i.e. to win a V.M.) and be an ace fighter pilot. Cheers V. Joe 01:26, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Reply to comment: Where the term "noble" is used refers to the "noble Polish pilots" (not necessarily Zurakowski) that served in Britain, "brave" is not used in the article and the fact that he is renowned is not in dispute, the article is testament to that fact. IMHO, there is no POV here and I am taking the notification off. Your first recourse when you do such a drastic and damaging statement is to post on this discussion page. You did the opposite, placing a POV tag there without any discussion is tantamount to vandalism and is treated as such. Bzuk 01;35 22 January 2007 (UTC).
The Zurakowski article is based on a number of reference sources. I will place citations to validate any factual or contenuous issues but I do not consider an article that has been in existence since January 2004 and has never been challenged before for POV violations, to be worthy of such a statement especially from an editor who has never made any previous contributions to the article. Your comment implying that I am writing about "relatives, friends or oneself;" let me clarify: I am his biographer and I have submitted editorial changes to correct inaccurate or misleading information. I do not intend to rewrite my biography but I am cognizant that the article should be as accurate as possible. Bzuk 12:12 22 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Admiral Brown

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Admiral Brown, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Los Buckleys y el idoma castellano

I added a link at Spanish in your article on William F. Buckley, Sr.; seems odd you'd link English and French but not Spanish, so in case there was a reason I thought I'd give you a heads-up. Also, I'd be interested in seeing third-party documentation of WFB (Jr)'s childhood history of language acquisition. I find it implausible that he really wasn't introduced to English till he was 7, though it's quite possible it wasn't his strongest tongue till then. Implausible, but not impossible. But Bill Buckley is quite a raconteur, and not always the best source of impartial data on himself. Do you know of any documentation on the question that doesn't come through Himself? --Haruo 16:22, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

And while we're at it, did Buckley père die in 1957 or 1958? Your article is inconsistent on the point. --Haruo 16:31, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

And my apologies for somehow thinking you were the original author... Still, these are questions you may be able to address. --Haruo 16:39, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DC Meetup notice

Greetings. There is going to be a Washington DC Wikipedia meetup on next Saturday, July 21st at 5pm in DC. Since you are listed in Category:Wikipedians_in_Virginia, I thought I'd invite you to come. I'm sorry about the short notice for the meeting. Hopefully we'll do somewhat better in that regard next time. If you can't come but want to make sure that you are informed of future meetings be sure to list yourself under "but let me know about future events", and if you don't want to get any future direct notices \(like this one\), you can list yourself under "I'm not interested in attending any others either" on the DC meetup page.--Gmaxwell 22:09, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of K K Singh

A tag has been placed on K K Singh 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. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 03:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
