== on the ibm logo ==

I noticed you had a problem with the svg ibm logo.
Replacing the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:IBM_logo.svg with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:IBM_logo.png is decremental to wikipedia.

a) current form for logo is more suitable for vector image
b) svg version is higher quality, occupies less space
c) svg version of logo renders faster, clearer, png version may take twice as long to render
d) the IBM article without the ibm logo? - you might as well remove logos from [[Microsoft]] and [[Dell]]
I have sent an email to IBM requesting permission to use the logo in it's current high quality version in all 100+ articles,
It is fair use to present the IBM logo alongside IBM products.
I know that now every wikipedia-admin is also a mini-IP-lawyer, but please [[Meta:Don't be a dick]] :-P

::claps::

Not to sound condescending, but good on you! I tag images frequently because my time on WP is either on quick spurts (time enough to do little things like tagging), or in long drawn-out stretches. I'm glad that I could help lead somebody else to fix problems I've come up with. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 00:28, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting on CBC page

I created a category for CBC personalities a little while back. But I only seen the lists of personalities on the CBC page yesterday. There is no need to revert back because the CBC personalities category does the job of a list. A list is useless when there is more redlinks then blue. Please don't revert back. It's real not necessary to have lists and a category. Mr. C.C. 14:37, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I was looking at some articles and they make no mention of them ever being a CBC personality. Those lists don't give any insight whatsoever. I see those lists as redundant. Mr. C.C. 06:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

SVG logos

Insted of just putting that userspace tag on SVG logos, could you help transition the image back to a low-resolution image? It would help more. Also, remember that I7 requires that the uploader be notified and that a 48 hour delay occur for images uploaded since July 13th, 2006 until deletion, and a week for images older than that. Kevin_b_er 20:05, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd prefer if you could respond to my objection to the existence of your template on TFD. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 22:39, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Bssm9.png

Thanks for uploading Image:Bssm9.png. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|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 have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

Deleteable?

What do you think of Sailor Moon bootlegs? I don't want to be mean, but.... I'm not sure it can become a good article. I guess maybe if it has exact info about who are the ones selling these, but that kind of information generally isn't well-known, since they're illegal. And how to recognize a bootlegger belongs on a more general page. I dunno. --Masamage 18:33, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please advise of documentation plans regarding John Doyle. Memory is not documentation. Thanks. Erager 18:00, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pssst

Are you gonna respond to the stuff at Talk:Mamoru Chiba? I want to make sure everyone's happy. ^^; If you're just waiting to formulate a response, I totally sympathize. --Masamage 07:17, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just making sure you know that I plopped a deadline on the discussion. Responses had ceased, I didn't want us to get stuck in a deadlock forever. I very much want not to step on your toes, so if you still want to respond, I hope you will. If not, we'll probably just go ahead, and I hope that's okay. Thanks for joining in. --Masamage 06:15, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I just haven't had that same experience. --Masamage 06:22, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Orphaned fair use image (Image:CA NDP 2004 Logo.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:CA NDP 2004 Logo.png. 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. --Durin 13:41, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Denelson, you move-protected CBC. I believe there has been a healthy discussion already and the situation was resolved. Please see Talk:CBC. Quarl (talk) 2006-10-31 17:25Z
