Are you looking for a message you left here a few moments or days ago? My talk page got a little bit too large in size, and your message may now be archived.

reasons why not to delete my article

on the talk page and summary, i stated why this article shouldnt be deleted. please talk about it on the talk page before you consider having it deleted.--Cman7792 (talk) 01:02, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not place your signature in the headings. I have read your arguments and still believe that it fails WP:NF as it doesn't have any real plot here. You can't use Google as a source, and why in the world would a reader of our encyclopedia have to Google your movie in order to find a source? We believe in in-line citations here. Now, I hope not to come across as uncivil or BITE-ey, but please read these guidelines before introducing an article into the mainspace; it covers some of the things an article should include before making it "live." You are free to participate in the AfD for that article. At this time, it is up to the community to decide. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 03:17, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]


image-upload impossible mission

dear Duncan/ESanchez013, thanks for the help, now i'm totally new to wiki and wikipedia, so please help me with that consent letter. i should write to system3 that they should write a letter to wikipedia, right? what license should they use? they created the game but screenshots are different product. 217.150.130.180 (talk) 12:36, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, here an admin said that He will need to formally license the image, following the format at WP:CONSENT. but fair-use says Regardless of copyright, screenshots may still be legally used under the principle of fair use in the U.S. or fair dealing and similar laws in other countries. Do we need to email that guy again apart the email we already got? --phpmoli 17:00, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm. I guess we can upload it under fair use. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 07:13, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thanks, what's the procedure, do we need to make a request again or can we alter the previous request? --phpmoli 13:46, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
{{adminhelp}} this is pointless. you can upload any copyrighted text but not fair-use images? i had massive enthusiasm to help edit wikipedia, i even read nearly all help pages. all i got now is a huge wait sign blinking that i'm waiting for years to give go. no. i stop. it was useless and pointless to create an account. i deeply sorry for the time i've spent with wikipedia. admins read this as you were took part in this --phpmoli 15:33, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sir, I am sorry you decided to leave, and if you think your short experience here was full of being bitten. However, you must understand that I could not swiftly respond to your inquiry, as I am rather busy in real-life; any other person at WP:FFU could've helped, or using the {{helpme}} on your own talk page. Don't always expect a fast response. To answer your question, if you ever decide to return, no, you do not need a new request to upload a fair use image if you have a registered account; yes, you need a new request if you do not have an account and are using your IP address to make a request. Farewell. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 22:46, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oops! Thanks!

My morning coffee hasn't kicked in yet. Good catch! Daniel Case (talk) 12:56, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User:WinterLightning

Obvious sock of User:Editor XXV. That guy has a rather bizarre modus operandi: tagging his own socks immediately after creating them, for instance. Not banned yet, but I'm working on it. --Decepticon Shockwave, signing off. (talk) (contributions) 13:30, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and this one was a sleeper. My guess is he was trying to wait out the 4-day limit before you can become autoconfirmed, but got impatient. --Decepticon Shockwave, signing off. (talk) (contributions) 13:32, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What a guy. Well, I'm sure he has more sleepers somewhere; I think after this, we have enough to take him to AIV or request a CU on his accounts. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 13:37, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There already was a CU. (Came out positive, shocking, I know.) Unfortunately, he's operating from a dynamic IP, and the range he cycles through is huge and can only be blocked for a short time. I'm trying to get him community banned. --Decepticon Shockwave, signing off. (talk) (contributions) 13:41, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, bugger, I missed him again. Thanks for the revert, Duncan. It's always nice to know one's a sockpuppeteer. xD Is there any way I can help with the community ban? --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 15:19, 2 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There's currently a discussion on WP:ANI#User:Editor XXV; I'm sure we could give our opinion in the matter there. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 00:32, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Already commented. May I say how much I hate AN/I as I told xeno here? --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 00:39, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I'm on a MiFi card and it takes me forever to load that page. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 00:44, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ow. It took me a while even with a proper, wired connection. --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 00:49, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Really? I get it instantly. --Decepticon Shockwave, signing off. (talk) (contributions) 18:01, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Right now, it varies every time I go there. (shrugs) Maybe I just have too many windows open. --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 18:07, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah. I also have a slow machine (Vista) on top of it all, so I don't always get it instantly. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 23:59, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You bought Vista? Excuse me while I facepalm. (facepalm) There, all done. :P --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 00:01, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

LOL Yes. The whole Aero and window-flip (plus the insistent salesperson) made it seem oh-so-very cool. But, I have learned my lesson: do not buy hastily-coded operating systems. Windows 7, anyone? :P —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 00:05, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard mixed on that. I actually asked for my new PC specifically to not have Vista. xD Of course, the XP was stolen and the shop has closed. (rageface) --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 00:15, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I'll wait just a few more months and I may cave :-D. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 06:19, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
(looks at your page history) ... err... what the hell was that IP's poetry about? --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 11:59, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
He was mad that I removed his copy-paste lyrics of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air on 15lsoucy's talk page. So, he came on here and (I guess, trying to prove something?) pasted them here. He's blocked now. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 20:12, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
IPs... they scare me sometimes... --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 20:18, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. They are stalkers. :-P —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 01:25, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I just noticed you need to update your userpage. The infobox down the right still labels you as E. Sánchez. Secondly, is the picture/text wrong or does my screen need adjusting badly? You say you're white and hispanic but (alters screen setting slightly) the picture looks a lot like an African American. (is very confused) --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 14:22, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, to be fair my real name is E. Sánchez. And I am white race, and of Hispanic ethnicity (White Hispanic and Latino Americans). I think it's my over-grown hair, but that's me in the picture. :-D —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 23:40, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hadn't considered it was your actual name. (facepalm) Oh, well, then. Guess I need to alter my screen. O.o --ThejadefalconSing your songThe bird's seeds 22:59, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
=] Yeah, that's me! lol Yeah, Duncan is my late teacher's name; he was awesome. —Duncan (that's me!)What I Do / What I Say 00:02, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In response to your message

Hi, I understand that the WP:COI rules would still apply, regardless of username. Could you kindly approve the change in my user name from cecn to funshine? Cecn (talk) 20:08, 9 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
