Userpage misformatting

Thanks for letting me know! That was actually an edit from a bot which appears to be malfunctioning. I've stopped the bot temporarily while the problem is examined. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 01:47, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Boulan

A tag has been placed on Boulan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Russ (talk) 18:46, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

You suck. You just had to spill the beans on me, didn't you? Killer cellos!!! 15:39, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Grim tuesday scholastic.PNG)

Thanks for uploading Image:Grim tuesday scholastic.PNG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:13, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

{{Math-comp-stub}}/{{Math-comp-bio-stub}}

Hi - a stub template or category which you created has been nominated for deletion or renaming at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type, which was not proposed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, does not meet the standard requirements for a stub type, either through being incorrectly named, ambiguously scoped, or through failure to meet standards relating to the current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 00:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

I nominated it for several reasons, all of which I mentioned at Wikipedia:Stub_types_for_deletion/Log/2007/October/20: It's incorrectly/ambiguously named, one of the two categories has no permanent category parent, and size is of concern - though, as you pointed out, that might be fixable. To sum it up, the math-comp-stub is probably fixable fairly easily, the bio-stub is just unnecessary and more of a problem in other ways. Note that, even for stubs which are connected closely with wikiprojects, such matters as naming and size still matter for stubs, which is why we have a proposal process (basically, the reason is that stubs aren't just used within a wikiproject, but by editors across Wikipedia, so its important to keep all of them as consistent across the whole of Wikipedia as possible - if you want WP-specific templates, then talk page banner templates like {{WPBeatles}} are usually far more useful). Grutness...wha? 01:04, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Math ratings

Both priority and importance work for the name of that parameter. The template itself always says "priority" on the talk page, so using that for the name of the field makes sense. — Carl (CBM · talk) 01:44, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip. Temperal^xy 01:58, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Mathlinks logo.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Mathlinks logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:25, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

wow...

Temperal, you are extremely ambitious. If I could give you another approval award, I would. - 1=2 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbabbitt2003 (talk • contribs) 22:40, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Itestlogo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Itestlogo.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Boulan bronco.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Boulan bronco.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:56, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Successful RfA - Thank you!

Thank you for supporting my recent RfA. It was successful, and I was promoted to Administrator today. I appreciate the support! — KieferSkunk (talk) — 23:10, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Tower Defence

Baka, I'm talking about Tower Defence the GENRE, not the actual GAME. I might do a brief bio on some of the games, though.

Furbish Lousewort

I'm not clear about why you rejected my article on the Furbish lousewort. You said I provide insufficient context, but it's a plant. I say what it looks like, where it's found, it's taxonomy, that's it's endangered, when it was described. There's more you can say about it, but I reckon it's enough for a start. That's what's great about Wikipedia, the article can start out like that and more folk will come along and add more.
