Up to date?

Hello, I see you have made some improvements to Citrus Bowl.

I notice the article contains this statement, "The most recent was The Rolling Stones in December 1997." Is that still up to date? There hasn't been a major concert there for at least 10 years? If that is false it should be updated. If it is true then it would be interesting if we could explain why this venue is no longer hosting major concerts.

Disputed fair use rationale for Images

Paul Revere 250

I saw that you created a section on the Pepsi 400 article on the Paul Revere/Brumos Porsche 250. I have created a notice on the Pepsi 400 page that this section should be split into a new Article at Brumos Porsche 250 and a redirect to Brumos Porsche 250 made from Paul Revere 250 in keeping in line with WP:Name. I welcome your comments on the proposal talk at Talk:Pepsi_400#Paul_Revere.2FBrumos_Porsche_250_Split_Discussions. Sawblade05 (talk to me | my wiki life) 08:25, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help

There were a few statistics that I couldn't quite flesh out with the Perfect season article and your edits were definitely helpful in making it more than a NFL-only article.

Speedy deletion of Jim Trueman

I contested the speedy deletion and left a message to the nominator about slowing down the pace of nominating a little bit to give an author more than 2 minutes to work on an article. You should do things a little differently too. The best option is to develop an article in a user sandbox subpage before you copy it to mainspace. Here's the directions. I develop all of my articles in my sandboxes. A less popular option is to initially mark the article as {{inuse}} if you are actively editing the article, or as {{underconstruction}} if you plan to develop it over a few days.

Proposed deletion of Sid Collins

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Sid Collins, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rtphokie (talk) 23:59, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Iowaspeed.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Iowaspeed.jpg. 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. BJBot (talk) 12:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mole Hill?

Hey; Did they say during the episode that Kelley was halfway up the mountain with the scales? Because it was fairly clear from the shot that you could see the base camp with the other team still at the gold table in the background as the first team reached Kelley. That was my reason for writing a "short way" up the path, or whatever I said. I thought I'd listened for whether they said where he was, but I didn't hear anything. Thanks TheHYPO (talk) 05:46, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Imslayout.PNG listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Imslayout.PNG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Note: I have not nominated the image for deletion, I am simple notifying you. D.M.N. (talk) 21:35, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Indypro.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Fair use rationale for File:Richmondir.jpg

Possible FLC

Hi Doc, hope all is well in your world. I was working with User:Royalbroil, and he mentioned the possibility of bumping up the Daytona 500 pole position winners to WP:FL status. I looked through the article, and thought it was some great work, so I (we) have been looking for the right references to go in that direction. I wanted to mention that I appreciate your work on that article, and mention that we are going to try to head in that direction. If you have any resources that would help, links or anything, we'd be happy to do the tedious work of formatting per WP:CITE and improve the rating of the article. If you'd just rather follow along, that's fine too, so you may want to put it on your watchlist. Again, thanks for all the great work you've put into the article. As always, it's great to meet another race fan. ;) — Ched :  ?  18:25, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've been coaching Ched to understand how the process works. One thing that I brought up is that I think some of the information in the article is too far off-topic, failing WP:TRIVIA. So please watch the article's talk page and give your $0.02. I know you put a lot of effort into the article and I hate suggesting removing some of the content. Obviously I won't suggest it if I didn't think it was necessary. Royalbroil 12:21, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

American Championship Car winners

Is there any way to fix it, to include such stat? I had originally decided to try to include it when I had to count, by hand, where someone was located on the list, and saw that as the very definition of needing a new column. Unfortunately, lumping multiple entries together on a sortable table might be the very root of it, and I see no way to differentiate what would place one given 12-race-winner ahead of another.

Proposed deletion of The Big One (NASCAR)‎

The article The Big One (NASCAR)‎ has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.
