Cillian Murphy photo

I saw that you replaced the photo of Cillian Murphy with the higher-resolution original; but the thing you didn't notice was that these were two different versions of the same photo. The original uploaded by the photographer was cropped so that Murphy fills the frame of the shot, as is appropriate for the Cillian Murphy page. The version you replaced it with was not cropped; therefore, when viewed on the page, his face was very small within a big photo -- his image was reduced in size! Therefore, I reverted back to the photographer's original file. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melty girl (talkcontribs)

AfD notification

First off I apologise if this is considered an attempt to "vote-stack", but I think it's a slightly different issue since you already" voted to keep the article George W. Bush pretzel incident back in March...it's now back on the AfD list, despite it's earlier "Keep" verdict - and I'd appreciate an extra voice if your opinions are unchanged. It is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2002 George W. Bush pretzel incident (2nd nomination), much thanks. Sherurcij (Speaker for the Dead) 04:50, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

SVG logos

Hi, thanks for the notification of listing Image:NBC logo.svg on the WP:IFD. I noticed that you listed several other SVG logos there too. SVG conversion from EPS is a slavish transform, under Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp.. It has no originality, and so therefore does not create a derived work. Vector graphics by definition do not have a resolution, so WP:NFCC#3 does not apply. Furthermore, if this image were to be deleted for these reasons, all of the images using {{SVG-Logo}} and {{Brands of the World SVG}} would meet those criteria also. Those templates have already undergone TFD requests and results were keep and keep. SVG logos are appropriate for fair-use in Wikipedia. As such, I have voted for 'speedy keep' on all four of your nominations. Thanks. --ChrisRuvolo (t) 12:01, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another sock of Roitr?

Sorry, I was already offline when your msg arrived. Anytime Roitr appears the best thing to do is to report him asap to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. This will get him banned within minutes and to all the images he uploaded you can add db-banned|Wikipedia:Long term abuse/Roitr inside these brackets {{}} and they will be speedily deleted. best regards, --noclador 08:10, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Digby

read it but couldnt figure out what you wanted to do. it looked like the result was that there would be no article at all, because it seemed to me you could just have edited the existing one. I'll delete it now. DGG (talk) 19:44, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
and, stupidly, I didnt realize it was you--or i of course would have realized that you knew very well what you were doing !! DGG (talk) 19:46, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
done--by the way, I noticed his most "translated book" is a pamphlet. I'm now trying to clean up the spam from the bio of his wifeDGG (talk) 19:56, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion tags

Please READ WP:CSD and speedy deletion tags BEFORE you use them. Image:AABofficeA.jpg has NOT been tagged as unknown source for over 7 days, which is a requirement for an i4 deletion. -N 15:40, 7 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It was an orphaned image with an invalid tag and no source or permission information of a door. I don't figure it's ever going to be used as it's corresponding article has been deleted per consensus. Wikidudeman (talk) 03:57, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Your cavalier attitude towards established policy appalls me. And it is not an invalid license tag, a COI editor probably did take that picture himself. -N 12:46, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, You need to WP:AGF, saying I have a "cavalier attitude towards policy" isn't assuming good faith and is borderline WP:NPA. Secondly, The image is orphaned and the page itself, which it was meant to occupy, has been deleted per consensus twice, See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A A Baig & Co., Chartered Accountants. The image will be deleted in a few days regardless and I was trying to speed the process up. The image had probably even been created and deleted before hand when the original article it went to was deleted for the first time. Wikidudeman (talk) 13:00, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: TfD nomination of Template:Advertising-section

You wrote: Um, why did you even write that template? -N 19:45, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Taking the time to type "Um" in this way is rude. Were you looking for an answer to your question, or just looking for a way to be rude? Demi T/C 23:18, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
