AfD

Either complete the AfD's for Soul Train episodes or delete them from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2006 January 24. At present they are just a red mess at the end of the AfD log page. -- RHaworth 23:27, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • You've asked me to "complete the AfD's for Soul Train episodes or delete them from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2006 January 24." Can you tell me how to complete these AfD requests? I thought I had done what I was supposed to. Iamvered 23:45, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The instructions are here. You have already done Stage III. It is a bit longwinded but there is no easier way, especially considering the volume of AfDs that there is. -- RHaworth 23:50, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar Award!

I hereby award Iamvered a Barnstar Award for his/her work on articles pertaining to Nashville, Tennessee. -- Kaldari 04:02, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The article on Athena Parthenos is excellent and your additions to the Parthenon and Centennial Park articles are great. Keep up the good work! If you ever need help with anything, let me know. Kaldari 04:02, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I went to UC Berkeley too, BTW :) Kaldari 07:43, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OK, you're going to think this is really weird, but I'm also a vegetarian nashville-native DDR-playing programmer who uses MacOS X :) Kaldari 07:46, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe, yeah I thought that was just a little too weird. There aren't that many UC Berkeley alumni in Nashville, much less ones that have all the same interests as me. BTW, have you been to Lipstick Lounge? They have great karaoke :) Kaldari 08:00, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whoa, that's awesome! I don't think I know you, but I've probably seen you around if you work at Lipstick. I live down the street from there. If you ever see a guy with a pink mohawk come in, that's me :) Kaldari 08:08, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, that article is 100% improved! I did a little bit of work on it back in 2004, but that was back when it was only four paragraphs :) It had certinaly become a mess since then. Now it's actually a coherent article. Nice map, BTW! Kaldari 01:55, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright?

You uploaded Image:Franklinwcounties.gif and placed a public domain tag on the image. However there is a clearly visible copyright notice on the image. These two points seem to be at odds with each other. Can you elaborate? olderwiser 22:23, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nashville, Tennessee

Nice work on the Nashville history section! Two suggestions: cite your sources (otherwise your edits may be deleted) and don't link years unless they are especially important to the subject (i.e. birth year, death year, year of founding, etc.) or part of a full date that is linked for formatting purposes. Kaldari 23:19, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a good idea to me, I was just repeating what the guidelines say: "What should not be linked: Months, years, decades or centuries, unless they will clearly help the reader to understand the topic." You may want to discuss the issue on the WP:CONTEXT talk page and see what they think about it. Cheers. Kaldari 00:20, 2 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

merging

G'day Iamvered,

User:Freakofnurture and I were working on something the other night, actually, when we discovered the existing Wikipedia:Proposed mergers. I don't know how much it's frequented by people who know how to merge, or how useful it is, but it seems that "Requests for merging" already sort of exists. I for one had never heard of this page before then!

If that doesn't work out for you, feel free to leave me a message on my talkpage at any time. I'll respond anywhere from ten minutes later to after a couple of days, depends on the time of the week. Cheers, fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 13:20, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

English language map

Hiya, what source did you use to determine which countries to color in Image:Anglospeak.png? It seems to be missing the Philippines, where English is an official language. Coffee 15:32, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops! I missed them. I have corrected. Good catch!

Image Tagging for Image:TPAC.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:TPAC.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use. If you want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Andromaque

Hi, thanks for translating this article from the French. As regards the list on the project page (Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/fr), what we're doing is actually removing the entries as they get done rather than striking them out, so the list gets shorter over time. (I've now deleted the entry you struck out.) Regards, --BillC 08:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A watered-down version of the proposed policy against censorship is now open for voting. Will you kindly review the policy and make your opinions known? Thank you very much. Loom91 12:52, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
