[edit] Alexis Thorpe

What is the source of that picture? It needs a tag, like whether it is fair use, etc. Also, James E. Reilly didn't create the Gemini twins. He didn't come back to the show until mid-2003...so all he did to Cassie DiMera was "kill" her. Mike H 12:49, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Alexis Thorpe Photo

(Actually, that came from http://www.tvtome.com. Type "Alexis Thorpe" into the search box, and click "Gallery" when you get to the biography section. I hope that clears things up...)

[edit] Possibly unfree Image:Stephen Dorff.gif

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Stephen Dorff.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

[edit] Image copyright problem RE: Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg

Warning sign
This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page:

  • The copyright holder, and
  • The copyright status

The copyright holder is usually the creator. If the creator was paid to make this image, then their employer may be the copyright holder. If several people collaborated, then there may be more than one copyright holder. If you created this image, then you are the copyright holder.

Because of the large number of images on Wikipedia, we've sorted them using image copyright tags. Just find the right tag corresponding to the copyright status of this image, and paste it onto the image description page like this: {{TAGHERE}}.

There are 3 basic ways to licence an image on Wikipedia:

  • The copyright holder can also release their work into the public domain. See here for examples.
  • Images from certain sources are automatically released into the public domain. This is true for the United States, where the Wikimedia servers are located. (See here for images from the government of the USA and here for other governments.) However, not all governments release their work into the public domain. One exception is the UK (see here for images from the UK government). Non-free licence governments are listed here.
  • Also, in some cases, an image is copyrighted but allowed on Wikipedia because of fair use. To see a) if this image qualifies, and b) if so, how to tag it, see Wikipedia:Fair use.

For more information, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. Please remember that untagged images are likely to be deleted.

If you have uploaded other images without including copyright tags, please go back and tag them. Also, please tag all images that you upload in the future.

If you have any questions, just leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again. --Admrboltz (T | C) 00:30, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Its close enough for me, please license it as you are the copyright holder. --Admrboltz (T | C) 18:05, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging for Image:Alexis.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Alexis.JPG. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Shannyn Sossamon?

I saw your recent edit on the Law & Order: SVU article and I agree with you---this absurd habit of highlighting a name multiple times in an article really gets out of control. But, I'm not sure I quite understand your Shannyn Sossamon reference. Can you enlighten me? ---Charles 05:21, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, in case you did not see my response on my talk page, I want you to know that I appreciate the sense of humor, and hope you maintain it. Wikipedia can get frustrating, but humor sure helps. Keep up the good work. ---Charles 05:53, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Price Is Right

Since Steve is a bit of a polarizing figure lately, I'll ask the question. What good does wikifying a year really add to the encyclopedia? Do you really expect someone's going to be reading an article and say "Hmmm... 1974? What is that? Why isn't there a link?"

I'm not trying to cause trouble, mind you. I'm just curious as to why this is something that certain members feel needs to be done. Lambertman 18:49, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, you've had plenty of time to write... well... whatever that is on your userpage, but you couldn't answer me, so I'll assume that you don't even think it's worthwhile to wikify dates? Lambertman 21:52, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Devon Aoki

I tried putting a request for semi-protection at WP:RFP but they turned it down. Guess it's up to editors to revert the article till the vandals get tired. Dismas|(talk) 01:32, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries

I would like to compliment you for having the most comprehensive edit summaries I've ever seen. However, I still don't understand most of them. --Liface 17:43, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandals

Even if they are vandals, you should not call them names (even @$#). I know how you feel but aside being against WP:NPA, some vandals like the attention and it makes things worse. I agree the IP should be blocked, nonetheless. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 16:48, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, I found your comments hard to follow (I think I'm too old :o)). Maybe it is just someone annoyed with you for any reason or just a random vandal. The IP has been blocked for 48 hours, so you should get some peace. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 17:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
I reported the new vandal. This should be blocked soon too. --E Asterion u talking to me? 20:18, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism to English law

I've only just recently started taking active steps against vandals. Don't know much about either of your media references but thought I'd reply out of courtesy. There were no racial slurs: just swearing.--Lucifer 16:58, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I semi-protected your userpage due to all the vandalism it was getting. I can remove the offensive edits from the history if you want me to, but that's a bit of a hassle. -- Steel 15:51, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Now your talk page is protected too. This often prevents legitimate users contacting you, so is only temporary. -- Steel 16:27, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg

Hi WTGDMan1986. You may have noticed I deleted commons:Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg. Prestige Portraits retains the copyright to the photos they take, and even though you are the subject of the photo, you cannot claim any rights to the image. Also, it is extremely likely that Prestige Portraits had a clause specifying stating that proofs may not be reproduced or distributed.

I've deleted the image here on Wikipedia because its use would be limited to your user page, and fair use images are not allowed on user pages. Remeber that images can be undeleted, but also realize that you'd have to make a very strong argument to have it restored. Thanks. ~MDD4696 16:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for deleting it. I think this was the reason why my Userpage was vandalized by Korean vandals using racist attacks. I mean, what the HECK are "flying d***s"? --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 17:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC) 17:05, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to jump in, but it's a shame about the racist attacks. I've received some of them myself, being a Chinese Canadian, so I can sympathize here... -→Buchanan-Hermit™/?! 17:07, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk:Dawson College shooting

Hi, I would appreciate it if you kept your comments on Talk:Dawson College shooting on topic – that is, discussing improvements to the article. In my not so humble opinion, your attempts at humour are rather inappropriate. Thanks. --Qviri (talk) 18:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for the vandalism revert

Thanks for helping revert the vandalism to my user page - much appreciated. Gwernol 17:02, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reporting vandalism

Thanks for the vandalism reports, but please don't go to WP:AIV unless the vandalism issue is serious for that IP. Go through the warnings as appropriate, and only if the vandal keeps on doing it, should he/she be reported. Thanks. --Nlu (talk) 17:08, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reporting vandals to WP:AIV

Hey there, fellow vandalism fighter. When you report a vandal to the Admin intervention against vandalism, they should have been issued a final warning, have vandalized after receiving that warning, and still be at it. Otherwise, I suspect the page would get clogged with random one off school boy vandals, or genuinely confused new users and real, persistent vandals would not get blocked as efficiently. Cheers Dina 17:12, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 69.27.252.245

Thanks for your message. I don't recall racial attacks by the "bored school boy", just nonsense comments about whatever teacher he had that period and fellow students, etc. He did use the word "retarded" in one edit. HGB 17:06, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Racial Vandalism

I don't get it. What's the link between korean people, racial attacks and "flying ****" vandalism? Raja Lon Flattery 17:24, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
I was checking where the vandalism came from by clicking "WHOIS" for that IP. The vandalism came from someone from Korea. Then the instigators allegedly deleted stuff from my talk page and replaced it with words like "flying d****s" and racial slurs. I had to delete my picture from my Userpage because of that. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 20:49, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, I understand that. I was wondering about the reason that drove the Koreans to such outbursts of vandalism. Raja Lon Flattery 09:02, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Seeing that I'm African-American, they have made fun of my race, using a racial slur. (Asterion) blocked both IPs, and then one other vandal I didn't see took cues from the recent MOO vandal (by clicking WHOIS for that IP, the vandalism came from a computer from Reston, Virginia). He got blocked indefinitely. I think this was because I tried to revert their edits made to Steve Irwin and its Talkpage and tried to prevent them from making such edits by providing confusing edit summaries. So far I've been messaged twice about that (Liface couldn't understand most of my edit summaries, Theoldanarchist couldn't understand a reference I made to Shannyn Sossamon in an edit summary when I was editing Law & Order: SVU for bad grammar). I respect your concern, but I don't like it very much when people like that use demeaning racial slurs like n*****. Isn't that considered disorderly conduct? --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 12:12, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Don't worry. I do not tolerate these kinds of attacks either. The Koreans are hardly in position to use racial slurs. Raja Lon Flattery 19:57, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Now Argentinan and German vandals are following examples from the Korean vandals with the racial slurs. They were blocked as I saw their IP adresses. It seems every time I log in to check for messages, the vandalism disappears. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 18:55, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Talk pages

I have removed your comments from Talk:Platte Canyon High School shooting and Talk:Duane R. Morrison. Those comments had absolutely nothing to do with the improvement and development of the article and were just your personal opinions on the shooter. Article talk pages are for discussing improvements of the article. Thanks, Metros232 15:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summaries?

Can you please explain some of your recent edit summaries to article pages, such as: "SICK AND TIRED OF IT ALL: the McMahons and villains in real life, TV, and movies. I wish Jun Kazama would just kill them all. Add categories. THERE" or "Player 1 K.O.'ed Jun Kazama! D'oh! Announcer: Player 2 Defeated. (Added myself; can't stop laughing about D'oh! (*laughter ensues*))" or "In Keyes' honor, I have supplied the categories. I am now letting Jun Kazama beat the $#&% out of Vince and Shane McMahon for what Duane R. Morrison did. SO THERE" How are these even CLOSE to being appropriate edit summaries? Metros232 13:25, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Metros232, I was angry with the headlines at one point (Platte Canyon High School shooting, Dawson College shooting), and then couldn't stop laughing at certain running gags (D'oh!) I heard, and tried to use a creative way to explain my edit. I apologize if this offends you, but I'm just trying to express how I feel at the point of the edit summaries. I get creative whenever I delete a vandalistic edit as well, in case you didn't notice. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 14:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Okay, but there's no award for "creative ways to explain an edit". Edit summaries are meant to state what the edit is and that's that. This isn't about your personal feelings on an issue. It's about the edit. To be completely honest, other editors don't often care what your feelings are, what your emotional state is, what your personal interests are, etc. We care about the encyclopedia and how your edit is affecting what we have in an article or a talk page. What do Vince and Shane McMahon, Duane R. Morrison, Emily Keyes, and Jun Kazama have to do with an addition of a category to an article? If you want to express your personal feelings, leave it to your user page (which I see you've already done much of). Metros232 14:56, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
And I see you're still continuing this. Why can't you just say "reverting vandalism" instead of "Revert Alex Varkatzas and Matt Heafy following by 69.37.169.238 (Vandalism) to last version by Orz. Please do not use private parts." What do these singers have to do with the vandalism at ALL?? Also...why did you report that user for vandalism on WP:AIV if they only had ONE edit ever and you never warned them? Metros232 21:05, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
Once again, what in the heck do you need 4 edit summaries in a row that state "Add the father in "Blast". Still, pay no attention to the handsome young man Shawn Reaves entering the SVU set, mind you."?? This has NOTHING to do with your edits and EVERYTHING to do with your interests. Metros232 16:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Personal attacks

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. This is in reference to your edit summary: REVERT Vandalism by a lunatic to last version by Lid. PLEASE do not refer to skate punk kids as rich kids on LSD. at this edit [1]. Also, please note that your revert was inappropriate. "Rich Kids on LSD" is the name of a band, it wasn't put in as a description of skater kids. Metros232 17:01, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assume good faith

You removed this comment as being vandalism. That was a message left on your talk page regarding an older message you left on user Asterion's talk page. I meant no malice whatsoever and your action was rude and disrespectful although it is your right to remove anything but warning on your talk page. However, you always tend to assume bad faith, as this was the case, and this will lead you only to conflicts. And you can get ride of those userboxes: "this user is polite" and "this user wants to be your friend" i saw on your userpage since, obviously, they do not mirror the real you. Ko Jumong 12:10, 6 October 2006 (UTC)


One more thing: with this attitude, no wonder people vandalize your page. Ko Jumong 16:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ellen DeGeneres

Hello! I blocked the IP vandal of the above page but I haven't placed it under protection. The history of the page doesn't show rapid, repeated vandalism in a short space of time. If it does so then there may be a case for semi-protection. If you think that it should be semi-protected right now then you can make a case for this at WP:ANB. Regards, (aeropagitica) 18:19, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Felony vandalism

You just referred to something as "felony vandalism." I'm uncertain what you mean by that, and would caution against the phrase - it's both a violation of WP:AGF and awfully close to a legal threat. Phil Sandifer 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but it wasn't vandalizing the main page - it was the talk page. And also, indefinite blocks != felonies. Phil Sandifer 18:54, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vertical Lists

Eh, I'm on the fence about your edit to my userpage (though I totally don't mind or anything.) I usually use asterixes for longer lists -- for a brief list of things (like pages I'm trying to remind myself to work on) a horizontal list takes up less space and let's me see my whole user page at once. But it's totally a work in progress and I'm going to leave it your way for a while and see what I think about it. Cheers! Dina 19:07, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removing semi-protection

Hi. I've removed the semi-protection on your talk page. I know that vandalism of talk pages can be a problem, but it's important that users be able to be contacted by newbies with questions and concerns about things they don't understand. I hope you understand - please feel free to contact me with any questions. Phil Sandifer 19:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Taichung City

I am new on WikiProject Cities. I have added considerable content to the first city I am working on, which happens to be the city of my residence, Taichung City. Would you mind taking a few minutes to look it over and leave comments on how you think I can make it better to bring it up to WikiProject Cities standards in a section of the discussion page for the city’s article page that I have set up.

Thank you. Ludahai 03:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New UNC articles

I just stared teh North Carolina Tar Heels article and the Template:University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and I thought you might want to help out to make these better. Remember 12:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks a lot for the nomination to administrator status. I'm not sure I deserve it yet, but I definately appreciate the vote of confidence. Remember 16:32, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hint (Sonic 2)

"Due to my recent hatred for vandalism, I am training to become a Wikipedia administrator. If you would like, kindly leave suggestions on how I can work my way to achieving this life goal."

Try to avoid edits like this because both the edit _and_ the summary let you look like a fool. --32X 18:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent additions to WP:AIV

I hate vandalism and I hate vandals, but unless I missed something, it isn't really proper procedure to report users after giving them a single warning, and then not waiting for them to vandalize again. Vandalism after the final warning is one of the criteria that is supposed to be satisfied before listing them on WP:AIV... --Onorem 17:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inappropriate edit summaries

For about the 3rd or 4th time, PLEASE stop with the inappropriate edit summaries and reports to WP:AIV. Stop categorizing things as "John Cena edits" or "Vince MacMahon like vandalism" or "children". Such comments are completely inappropriate. Please simply state something like "revert vandalism" without adding your own comments. Thanks, Metros232 18:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage Content Removed

I removed a large amount of content from your page, as it appeared you were using your user page to write a story. You do have a decent degree of latitude when it comes to your userpage, but the excessive irrelevant content does not belong on Wikipedia. Perhaps you should put them on one of your finely-crafted personal websites. Thanks. -- tariqabjotu 22:52, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wheel of Fortune

I restored the last names of the show's record holders. If the first names are relevant, so are the last names (mostly taken from the show's official records), and contrary to your edit comment, some of us DO care about the last names, for the sake of historical completeness. If you'd like to discuss this, I'd be happy to. JTRH 15:54, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Sports Car Racing

This is to inform you that Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports Car Racing has finally been launched. Due to your expressed interest in the project, it'd be greatly appreciated if you'd check in on it and help in any way possible. The359 02:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Warning at User talk:22113letitsnow

Aloha, WTGDMan. Good intentions with your warning at User talk:22113letitsnow, but I don't think that this template was the way to go. The "You are potentially offending people" line is just confusing given the context, and blanking a talk page is never the way to go unless we're dealing with an indefinitely blocked user, which letitsnow is not at this moment. Remember to assume good faith; the kids on that page had never been told that their behavior was inappropriate. Cheers, A Train take the 14:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Although I appreciate your help in keeping an eye on 22113letitsnow, it didn't do us any good for you to delete their comments as vandalism. Other admins might have different opinions on this, but by removing their talk page comments and leaving only our warnings, it appears at a glance that I've indef blocked a user for no reason whatsoever. "Vandalism" is hard to define on talk pages, but what they were doing (although certainly not appropriate) was not vandalism. Your edit summaries are also a little harsh. I see from your user page that you'd like to be an admin. One of the single biggest criteria for adminship is keeping a cool head. Making rash edit summaries and coming up with theories that blame minor celebrities for orchestrating vandalism don't demonstrate that quality. Try to take it a little easier. Thanks again for your help, though. A Train take the 15:31, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiproject Automobiles Notification

Hi WTGDMan1986, you were on the list of members at WikiProject Automobiles and we are introducing a new way of listing members, as the old list was becoming too long. Our new method involves having all of our members in a category.

To add yourself to the category just add the userbox to your user page by putting {{Wiki Auto Project}} where you want the userbox. Alternatively if you don't like the userbox you can add [[Category:WikiProject Automobiles members|WTGDMan1986]] to your userpage.

If you no longer wish to be a member of the project, simply don't add the userbox or category, there's no pressure. Thanks for your time, James086Talk | Contribs 04:40, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Simpsons WikiProject

Hi, there has recently been some contention over the isse of whether Simpsons character pages need "episodes featuring" lists and it's been decided that the issue will be put to a vote. As a member of the WikiProject, your opinion on the matter would be appreciated. Join the discussion here. Thanks, Scorpion 05:03, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Please chime in if you have a view

There's an interesting experience going on over at WikiProject California, and WikiProject Southern California.

Some time ago, WikiProject California members had placed their project tags on all articles about California cities. Those tags have been in place for some time. Recently certain members of WikiProject Southern California, after discussion on that project's talk page (only), decided to remove the WikiProject California tags for (almost all) Southern California cities, and replace the tags with WikiProject Southern California tags - only.

That is, the WikiProject Southern California members didn't simply add the WikiProject Southern California tag to Southern California cities, the WikiProject California tags were completely removed. This was done apparently without consultation with the WikiProject California members.

We are gathering responses to the following questions on those projects' talk pages:

  • Do you have a view whether the WikiProject California tag should be removed from a large number of cities in Southern California?
  • Do you have a view whether city article for Southern California cities should have more than one WikiProject tag?

Please let us know if you have a view! Spamreporter1 16:05, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rock music Wikiproject invitation

Hello WikiProject Metal member.
WikiProject Metal music is important in expanding encyclopedic coverage of the metal. It brings attention to the lesser-known bands, and significantly improves the quality of the famous ones. Five Featured articles and two formers is proof of that.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently resurrected WikiProject Rock music. I hope to also attract attention to rock music articles of all sorts, and hopefully change some to GA or FA status. I invite you to come join us, and embrace the links between metal and rock music in general.
Rock on.

[edit] Proposed deletions

The proposal is under WP:PROD, so if you disagree with deletion, you may remove the prod tag (any editor may remove a prod tag for any reason, though it's certainly much appreciated if a rationale for removal is provided). This will stop the proposed deletion process. However, you may want to review WP:N and WP:BIO, to see what's generally required for articles in general, and some good guidelines to what generally works for biographical articles. Has she been covered in any secondary (independent) sources, such as a newspaper or magazine? I wasn't really able to find a thing on her other than primary sources.

[edit] New WikiProject Illinois Collaboration Division

Hey, saw you were a participant in the Illinois WikiProject. I thought I would let you know that there is a new Collaboration Division up for the project. The goal of the division is to select an article or articles for improvement to Good article standard or higher. There is a simple nomination process, which you can check out on the division subpage, to make sure each candidate for collaboration has enough interested editors. This is a good way to get a lot of articles to a quality status quickly. Please consider participating. More details can be seen at the division subpage. IvoShandor 11:29, 10 March 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_Maryland, 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 00:27, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Japan taskforces

In order to encourage more participation, and to help people find a specific area in which they are more able to help out, we have organized taskforces at WikiProject Japan. Please visit the Participants page and update the list with the taskforces in which you wish to participate. Links to all the taskforces are found at the top of the list of participants.

Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you for helping out! ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 02:18, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WP:CVU status

[edit] Wikimania Atlanta

Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!

P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 07:24, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notice to all members of WikiProject Maryland

There are a few things going on right now in WikiProject Maryland that I thought all members should know about, especially the first one.

  • Not too long ago, Marylandstater raised the question of exactly how many members of the project are still active. For this reason, I'm asking everyone who is still active, and wants to remain in the project, to put an asterisk (*) after their username on the project's participants list. You have until the end of November 17, 2007 to do so, sometime after that, all the names that do not have an asterisk will be removed. This is just to clean up the ever expanding list. If you've been gone and come back to find that you've been removed from the list, don't take it personally, just re-add yourself! I won't feel bad at all if no one gets removed, in fact, it would be nice if all 30 members still consider themselves active. Also, this won't affect the two subprojects, but speaking of the subprojects...
  • As of sometime next week WikiProject Baltimore City College will be no more. Myself, Golem88991, and John Carter have decided to make it into a task force of WikiProject Maryland. If you have any objections, concerns, or comments, please post them in the talk page topic concerning this.

Now for the exiting news:

  • I'm pleased to announce the creation of the Baltimore Task Force! Those interested in contributing to Wikipedia's numerous articles related to Maryland's largest city, now have a place to collaborate.
  • I'd also like to take this time to propose a project newsletter. Any comments should be directed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maryland#Newsletter.

A couple last things:

  • The portal is in desperate need of maintenance, anyone who's interested, go check it out.
  • It's probably a good idea to add the project page (and thus the project talk page) to your watchlist. That way, you can easily see when new comments are posted.

I hope you read through all that ;). Thanks to all members for your contributions to the project's articles so far, let's keep up the good work!
Sincerely, -Jeff (talk) 05:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Bob Levy

Hi. I'm not really sure what the problem is. The Bob Levy link leads to a dab page, which in turn leads to - sorry, used to lead to - the correct redlink Bob Levy (producer). Notice Leslie Morgenstein is a redlink as well, because the article hasn't been created yet - neither has Bob Levy (producer), but linking to a page which has nothing to do with the Bob Levy we're dealing with is just irrelevant! See WP:RED for some info on redlinks :) You'll also see that many dab pages are filled with redlinks, they don't just link to already-created articles, e.g. Jack and Jill (there are some better examples, but that was a quick little search). Hope that clarifies any issues :) •97198 talk 14:04, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Vandalism" warning

Would you care to explain the warning you left on my talk page? I don't see how any of my edits were 'disruptive'. Thanks.--Michig 14:13, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

It's OK - I just saw that you removed it.--Michig 14:16, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Disruptive editing?

Please explain the very severe notice you placed on my Talk Page before I go straight to the Admin's noticeboard. I have acted correctly throughout. I am entitled to blank my Talk Page if there are minor notices on it ony which have been dealt with. I commend you to reading carefullyWP:Good faith. Christchurch 14:32, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey there, CC--I just replied to this post on your talk page! --DFW 14:37, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Vandalism" warning

Ola. Regarding your warning, you claim that you reverted the edits when this is not the case. Someone from our own IP address reverted the edit, which was caught as vandalism. If you wish to use a template to communicate, at least use one which is appropriate to the situation. It seems you have a history of sending these messages out carelessly. --194.154.171.154 15:15, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Golden Gate Bridge

Not quite sure why your edit summary says that you reverted one of my edits. I was trying to revert the vandalism from the IP that damaged the page (I'm using VandalProof to revert such infractions). I hope you don't take this the wrong way. No hard feelings. --DFW 15:21, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

You reverted some of the vandalism, but not all of it, so in order to get back to a revision without vandalism, I had to revert not only the vandals but also you. This doesn't mean I think you did anything wrong. Unfortunately I missed the "h" at the end of the line, but it seems you have fixed that. Thanks – Gurch 15:25, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Anyways, we had a lot of good feedback for the last newsletter. We not only received feedback at the newsletter's talk page, but I also received some messages on my talk page as well. Thank you to those who responded. The only complaint we received was about typos, and we will try our best to keep the newsletter error-free.

Please continue to offer feedback and new ideas for the next issue. The more we have, the more we'll know how to improve the newsletter. Again, thanks!

[edit] Dear User: IMPORTANT WIKI ARCADE GAMES PROJECT NOTICE

As you should be aware the wiki arcade games project has been marked inactive and with good reason. I am trying to increase the activity of this project but first I need to know who is still actually interested. So to find out I have put inactive next to the name of every person who has put them selves down as a participant of the project. If for whatever reason you do not intend to participate in the project anymore please remove your name from the participant list altogether. If you do but not in the near future leaving inactive next to your username will be helpful. Not taking any action at all will of course lead to inactive remaining against your name on the participant list. If however you have every intention on continuing in participating in the project please come change the "inactive" next to your username to "ACTIVE" so that it is clear who does and who does not still have interest in participating in the project. Thankyou for your time. --Hybrid360 (talk) 20:24, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject North Carolina May 2008 Newsletter

NEWSLETTER
Issue One • May 2008 • About the Newsletter

Cape Lookout Lighthouse
Cape Lookout Lighthouse

Hello WikiProject North Carolina members! A few of us at the The Newsroom Team decided to get together and re-energize the project, through these newsletters. This newsletter is hopefully the first of many to come. We want this project to be active in creating and expanding articles related to our state. If you're a current or former resident of the state, we hope that you will help spread the knowledge of how much there is to learn about North Carolina.

  • A great way to expand new articles is by keeping track of the new articles list. Please add any new NC-related articles or older ones you come across that have not been tagged with the project banner. When you notice an article has been added to the list, read over it and check for citations, grammatical errors, and spelling. If you've written a NC-related article in the past 5 days, read the requirements for Did you know... and add your article to the DYK nomination list. It might be chosen for the Main Page!
  • If you see a new member added to the project list, a great idea would be to leave them a welcome message on their talk page. Show them we notice new members and that we want them to become active participants.
  • If you have any questions in regards to the project, feel free to contact someone from The Newsroom Team. Thanks for all of your hard work and happy editing!

[edit] WikiProject Ohio Newsletter


Issue II - May 2008
From the editor:

Here's Issue II of the project newsletter. We're trying to decide if this is sinking or floating. If you would like to contribute to next month's newsletter please jump right in at the News Desk! Have a great May.
The Ohio Portal

The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images.
Selected Article: Indian Head Rock

There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it.
With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value.
After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river.
