Great photos of campus!

Hey, as a fellow student of LSU, I just wanted to say the photos you contributed to the Louisiana State University page stood out as very high quality. The vividness of the colors is awesome. Thanks for contributing! 72.219.56.68 (talk) 11:22, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:FILMS Questionnaire

As a member of WikiProject Films, you are invited to take part in the project's first questionnaire. It is intended to gauge your participation and views on the project. At the conclusion of the questionnaire, the project's coordinators will use the gathered feedback to find new ways to improve the project and reach out to potential members. The results of the questionnaire will be published in next month's newsletter. If you know of any editors who have edited film articles in the past, please invite them to take part in the questionnaire. Please stop by and take a few minutes to answer the questions so that we can continue to improve our project. Happy editing!

NowCommons: File:St Louis wide.jpg

File:St Louis wide.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:St Louis wide.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:St Louis wide.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 16:26, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Louisiana State University

The article Louisiana State University you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Louisiana State University for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of said article. If you oppose this decision, you may ask for a reassessment. Nikkimaria (talk) 23:07, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you know, Benjamin's DOB is listed as 1985. I think you meant to put 1895. Thanks for putting that up, by the way. It's a great help. And awesome pics of the campus as well. Willcrys 84 (talk) 04:26, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Lsumike.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Lsumike.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 08:05, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted at LSU

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you indicated an association with Louisiana State University. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at LSU, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

If you live near Baton Rouge and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from the area who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 17:04, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:TownInterior1.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:24, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your image uploads

Hi. You have uploaded a lot of photos to Wikipedia. Are these photos that you, personally, own the copyright to? I ask because File:Lsuaerial.jpg seems to be a retouched version of the second photo on this page, which the user there says were part of a photogrammetry project. Are you a part of this same team? In general, if photos are taken using college resources, the school owns the copyright. Do you, personally, hold the copyright for these photos? --B (talk) 02:46, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

B- thanks for catching this. The photos were taken for a college project but no college resources were used. That said, Nowhereman86 appears to have uploaded this to wikipedia without my knowledge nor permission. (Stuadms (talk) 08:02, 23 April 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Thank you for nominating Columbia University for a GA review. Unfortunately, there are so many unsourced statements that it would not be practical to put it on hold for you to correct. It is an important and interesting article and I hope that you renominate it when you have more footnotes. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 01:22, 13 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sidney Lumet

Nowhereman86, with regards to the alumni section, we are not to dispute who has more accomplishments because many notable alumni represented are notable. Instead, we are trying to represent alumni from all fields. If you feel compelled to just remove any alumnus who does not cater to your preference with respect to accomplishments/notability, it is not a valid reason to remove them and plaster the alumnus you feel more notable instead.

If you really feel that Sidney Lumet is notable, it is fine. However, you must agree that science alumni are not represented at all in the Columbia alumni section, and Columbia does have many great scientists/researchers. It is a notable research university after all, and not just a film/art school. Please provide me with an option/alternative to represent scientific alumni in the picture gallery. Otherwise, I will undo your change and start a column, so that other wiki editors can join in to decide on the matter. Thank you Zoroastrama100 (talk) 13:36, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have placed your nomination on hold so that you can address several items. Thanks, Racepacket (talk) 16:38, 4 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pic Hamilton Hall

Explain a valid reason for taking off the Hamilton Hall (which is the admissions residence)

Zoroastrama (talk) 18:50, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These are not valid reason for taking down other editors' images, when it comes to formatting. Wikipedia does not have an established rules for formatting that unless complied warrants removal. If the image distorts the appearance of the article too much, then it is natural to remove such an image. The formatting mistake should be fixed; you can help as another wiki editor. It should not be the basis for removal. I think that there is no image more direct than plastering the image of the admissions office in the admissions section. The revision might not be what you like, but you are not the only wiki editor. It would be nonsensical if I remove your photo, because I find minute details that I do not like.

Thanks

Friendly reminder

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits.

Error in a table you created

File:Compsonfam.jpg

Hi, there's an error in this file you created →

Benjamin's birth year is way off. Could you please fix this? It seems that two numerals are transposed. I'm deleting it from various articles until fixed. Thanks! Softlavender (talk) 08:59, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

LSU Aerial Imagery Source Origin

The file: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lsuaerial.jpg states that you "created this work entirely by yourself" however, I am the original owner of the photograph and I would like that to be properly referenced.

I have updated the file to note my contribution.

Thank you!
