[edit] A couple of notes

Just adding to that welcome with a few other things that new editors often forget. One is to use "preview" so that the history of an article doesn't get filled up, another is that we've got a strong guideline on external links that you may want to review. Keep up the good work.

[edit] Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 0% for major edits and 0% for minor edits. (Based on the last 121 major and 0 minor edits in the article namespace.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear impolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 02:30, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

Edit summary text box

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

[edit] A Poet's Life AfD

Hi. Please do not try to close this AfD discussion again. It is genreally a bad idea to close an AfD you ahve been involved with, particualrly if you are not an administrator. Thanks. The Land 21:47, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Virtual album.

While I respect that you created the virtual album article, I don't think the term is prolific enough to start rewriting articles in its shaddow. IE: I don't think you should start going through artists' pages and separating iTunes Originals into a completely separate category. Many physical CDs exist in digital form. I don't think that a release that is internet only merits the album being singled out. Internet releases have been around a lot longer than iTunes. Your own article gives an example. The Black Eyed Peas album was released as a CD. So why is it still a virtual album? nothing in the term "album" says what the format has to be. records were albums on analogue vinyl. Tapes were albums on magnetic cassette. CDs are digital albums on a reflective disc. Why should downloaded albums (on hard drives) be classified differently? I can see from the fact that you created the article for A Poet's life, which you claim is the source for the term that you probably have a fan attachment to the term and the artist who coined it, and I ask this with all due respect, not as an insult, but as a genuine question - is there any significant and notable outside use of the term virtual album besides Mr. Armstrong's usage (and his fanbase)? I just don't think it's right to relist all iTunes Originals as "virtual albums" and then have people need to look up what that means because noone knows the term. That would just be proliferating the term via wikipedia, instead of defining the albums by existing terms. Hope to hear back from you. TheHYPO 07:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:The operation.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:The operation.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Chowbok ☠ 17:41, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

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

Thanks for uploading Image:ESC_PWT.jpg. 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. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 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. MER-C 09:58, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Atticus: ...dragging the lake, Vol. 4

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Atticus: ...dragging the lake, Vol. 4, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Atticus: ...dragging the lake, Vol. 4.
