The purpose of user talk pages is to draw the attention or discuss the edits of a user. Wikipedia is not a social networking site, and all discussion should ultimately be directed solely toward the improvement of the encyclopedia.

— from WP:OWNTALK


Editors should always treat each other with consideration and respect. In order to keep the focus on improving the encyclopedia and to help maintain a pleasant editing environment, editors should behave politely, calmly and reasonably, even during heated debates. This policy ... applies to all editors and all interaction on Wikipedia, including on user and article talk pages, in edit summaries, and in any other discussion with or about fellow Wikipedians.

Sources [edit]

Hi again. Did you get the e-mail I sent you on May 3 re acceptable sources and edits for Prem Rawat? I have given you a lot to consider, but as long as you got it OK and it's in the pipeline, that's fine. Rumiton (talk) 11:36, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Yes, I did get your e-mail. My apologies for not having written you back sooner. I'll need to check out the sources you proposed and see if I think any are usable. — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 20:28, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Me again, Rich. I hate to keep nudging you like this, but I really can't proceed with my appeal until I get more clarity on this subject. Did you find some time to look further? Rumiton (talk) 05:01, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Replied by e-mail, as best I feel I can without digging so deeply into this topic that I might become heavily involved with it (something I really choose not to do). — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 05:48, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
Thanks Rich. Most helpful, if not exactly what I would have liked to hear. :) Rumiton (talk) 06:04, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

File:Kreetassan Apology Closeup.jpg listed for deletion [edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Kreetassan Apology Closeup.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. —Justin (koavf)TCM 23:33, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Note to self: I commented on the above, proposing that the image be kept because "This screen shot illustrates the climactic scene of the Star Trek: Enterprise episode in which it appears." This was one of a batch of several dozen nearly identical deletion proposals, and many people have been commenting that most fair-use images in Star Trek episode articles are not really necessary (and, therefore, do not satisfy our requirements for use of non-free content). — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 01:34, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
Another note to self: I commented at Koavf's talk page about whether it was a good idea to nominate a large batch of Star Trek images for deletion all at the same time, and whether a larger community discussion ought to take place before these deletion proposals are acted on. Koavf and I will apparently need to "agree to disagree" on this matter. — Richwales (no relation to Jimbo) 01:38, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
