About your move of Sulpher Springs Water Tower[edit]

Hi there BRoys, welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. I noticed you tried to move Sulpher Springs Water Tower to the correct version, Sulphur Springs Water Tower. That's great, but please note that at Wikipedia we move pages using the Move tab at the top of each article. (Not by copying and pasting). This helps the software keep the history of the original article. This particular page has been fixed; however, if you need any more help, please see WP:MM. Thanks! - Tangotango 16:59, 19 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ferrando in Il trovatore[edit]

I noticed you edited "Ferrando"'s name and changed to "Fernando" with message "Wrong spelling". To avoid being edit again and again by others or you, I put both names there. It pronounced "Ferrando" and also written as "Ferrando" in the Il trovatore libretto but some articles and opera pronounced it as "Fernando". For reference, please go to Il trovatore Ferrando role - Jay 07:14, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Sulphur Springs Tower at Night 004.jpg[edit]

Hi. When you uploaded Image:Sulphur Springs Tower at Night 004.jpg, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with {{GFDL-presumed}} and, for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image and you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted.

This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided.

If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually {{GFDL-self}} or {{PD-self}}. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image.

If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, and cannot make the image compliant with Wikipedia:Non-free content, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. All other non-free images must follow these rules.

Please feel free to contact me on my talk page or leave a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions with any questions you may have. Thank you. Aksibot 07:39, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you![edit]

The Special Barnstar

Hi! My name is Marcin Wichary, and I’m writing a book about keyboards (you can learn more about me and the project at aresluna.org). I caught your comment “I grew up (1959 'till his death) living next door to August Dvorak” and I was wondering if there was a chance to chat with you more about Mr. Dvorak.

I’m available at mwichary@gmail.com or at Twitter at @mwichary (my DMs are open). Thanks in advance! Mwichary (talk) 21:41, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
