cvgproj tag

In principle the tag is applied to everything related to computer and video games, including people who are active in the industry. This has long been done like this for articles like Talk:Shigeru Miyamoto and Talk:John Carmack, so I recently went through the category Category:Computer and video game designers and added the template. Note that the template is also widely used on companies (for example Talk:Microsoft) and other categories. Hope that helps. If you disagree with these practices I suggest you raise it on the CVG discussion page. Cheers, JACOPLANE • 2007-01-9 07:00

Thanks for uploading Image:SondraCurrie.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please: i am 39 and haveno kids, i am boring

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. MECU≈talk 23:30, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Age category

Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that your user page is in a specific year category. Per a recent user-category per deletion, all specific year categories are to be deleted. If you wish to continue using year categories, you have two options:

Using an age group category, such as Category:Wikipedians in their 30s
Using a decade category, such as Category:Wikipedians born in the 1970s.

If you wish, you may do both. Hopefully, this change in categorization will be quick and painless. Happy editing! --An automated message from MessedRobot 12:37, 9 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

With respect, some questions re "How does Peter know he caused explosion? - NOT A FORUM."

I'm new at wikipedia. I don't understand why I can't discuss an issue regarding the show Heroes(TV Series).

I think people are assuming a person explodes and that the person is Peter. I haven't seen, heard or read anything that conclusively settles this.

I'm not trying to start an argument with you. I'm just looking for some guidance on the criteria used to remove my serious question, that drew three responses in less than one day, with one person commenting "Yep, that is an interesting question - I've been wondering about this myself... "--Raymm 19:45, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You answered me on my page. Where should I respond, here, or on my page? If I respond on my page, how will you know?--Raymm 21:29, 5 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Cleanup

Tha main problem I think the article has is the huge lists at the bottom. They take up more space than the biography section - • The Giant Puffin • 13:37, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah the fact that he has acted for so long doesnt help lol. If theres nothing you can do, remove the tag. The article doesnt need much more work in terms of cleaning it up - • The Giant Puffin • 13:53, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Of course it's a fact. Note, however, that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Dictionary definitions belong to Wiktionary, not on Wikipedia's disambiguation pages. Manual of style for disambiguation pages explicitly states that a Wiktionary link is sufficient and that dictionary definitions should not be included.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:49, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AGF

My apologies with the revert at Judy Garland. I often use the Rollback function for reverting vandalism for recent changes that I've pretty much forgotten the AGF rollback. Again, I apologize for the inappropriate rollback. --Ozgod 23:23, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done. It's rather vague explanations, but it does it's job for the most part. Rake (talk) 23:58, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:SondraCurrie.jpg

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:SondraCurrie.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. One Night In Hackney₃₀₃ 11:53, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mickey Rooney

Hi, I've had a look at the edits made by this editor, not just to the Mickey Rooney article, but to other articles, and there seems to be a completely lack of understanding of Wikipedia policies and principles. If it wasn't for this edit I'd say, give him/her the benefit of the doubt as they don't know what they're doing, but if they're going to make such a stupid comment, I'd be more inclined to just regard them as a nuisance or a troll. Have a look at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding reporting of improper behaviour, but also be mindful of WP:3RR. I've reverted but who knows how long that'll stick. Rossrs (talk) 14:09, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was reverted almost immediately, so I have given a warning. Talk page is full of warnings. Rossrs (talk) 14:28, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It was an oversight. I do apologize. Wildhartlivie (talk) 21:57, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Locomotion.png

Thank you for uploading Image:Locomotion.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator 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.BetacommandBot (talk) 13:16, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
