Poppers
[edit]Hi Andeggs. I wonder if you'd tell me your objection to the image in the lead section of the poppers article, which you swapped out today. There's a group of editors trying to get this article into shape for a possible nomination for a Wikipedia Good Article award and we'd found an image that represented current products as well as was graphically appealig. I know there was a possible concern about copyright issues. Many thanks. Munatobe7 14:07, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
I love your "I won't die in a ditch over this"! I agree, no problem here, either. I'm hoping for an even better image. It'd be nice if someone could shoot some poppers on display in a store somewhere, I'd think.
I see on your talk page that you have lots of experience with featured articles. Do you think the poppers article is getting good enough to be a serious contender for a "Good Article" award?
There are many other articles you could be spending your time on, but this one, especially, welcomes high quality contributions and civil editors. Thanks for your contributions. Munatobe7 18:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
relevance vs. red herring fallacies
[edit]At the time these templates were merged, they were largely overlapping and inconsistently applied (not to mention only one was consistent with other philosophy templates). It does not seem to me at a glance that the new template contains links that are not fallacies, but I am no specialist. The "navbox generic" structure (which I peronally loathe) was imposed after the merge by a third user (this is the version that I last looked at). In the end, I think the best place to try and discuss this is Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Philosophy, not my talk page. Circeus 22:25, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I rated Francis Thomas Bacon only as a stub because of the lack of image (as you noted), an infobox, and separation of sections. You are welcome to change it if you wish. Captain panda 21:01, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Maybe to make it less stubular, someone could add some more details about his personal life, family, children etc? Ossie 23:58, 30 December 2010 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ossiemanners (talk • contribs)
Template:Law/Temp
[edit]Hi, I just noticed that a template you created, Template:Law/Temp, is unused and appears to be abandoned. I've marked it as deprecated, meaning it'll be deleted in two weeks' time if nobody objects. If there's a reason to keep it please leave a note at Wikipedia talk:Deprecated and orphaned templates and feel free to remove the {{deprecated}} tag from the template. Thanks.

Expeditions in Antarctica
[edit]Hi! I picked up your old map request. Have a look here and let me know what you think. It only shows expeditions until 1897. There should be another map (to be done) for the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration. bamse (talk) 10:59, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Regions of the world/Temp
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and the page that you created has been or soon will be deleted. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Mhiji 01:44, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Template:Scale has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for discussion page. Thank you. Mhiji 21:47, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
Disputed non-free use rationale for File:TenzingonSummit.jpg
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/c/cf/Copyright-problem.svg/64px-Copyright-problem.svg.png)
Thank you for uploading File:TenzingonSummit.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:16, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Hello,
Regarding your recent post at WikiProject Chem. I don’t think I can help with the Wikimedian-in-Residence role (if nothing else I already have a full time job), but I am willing to help-out in an ad-hoc manner; should there be any call for it. I’m based in Liverpool, so I could lend a hand with things happening in the North West area. Project Osprey (talk) 12:16, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
Notification of automated file description generation
[edit]Your upload of File:C major triad.png or contribution to its description is noted, and thanks (even if belatedly) for your contribution. In order to help make better use of the media, an attempt has been made by an automated process to identify and add certain information to the media's description page.
This notification is placed on your talk page because a bot has identified you either as the uploader of the file, or as a contributor to its metadata. It would be appreciated if you could carefully review the information the bot added. To opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions here. Thanks!

Amendments on Rees
[edit]I was curious why Martin Rees has honours in his page title, which are often omitted in other cases I've encountered, so I dropped onto the talk page to see whether this was discussed. The proper formality was discussed, if not the necessity.
While I was there I noticed your comment that you had edited this article on Martin's behalf, so I took a look at the edits you made there, some time ago.
I'm sure the text you added is fabulous, but it's not entirely cool to replace sourced statements with unsourced statements, no matter how direct or authoritative your personal connection.
I'm just passing through on this one, but I will leave a note on the article's talk page that sourced statements were replaced with unsourced statements in the edits you contributed, because it is sometimes a valid point of contention per Wikipedia editorial policy. — MaxEnt 11:24, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:Criminal case
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Template:Criminal case requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is an unused duplicate of another template, or a hard-coded instance of another template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is not actually the same as the other template noted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page explaining how this one is different so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>
).
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page, where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. – Train2104 (t • c) 19:38, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
