Hi
[edit]Hi April, good to see another permacultralist on wikipedia. You edits to permaculture look good, although I feel the page might be repeating itself a bit. The whole article could do with a tidy and restructuring. --Salix alba (talk) 13:41, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
Your edit to Kransky Sisters
[edit]Message posted on Friday, May 18, 2007
[edit] Please do not post copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder, as you did to Kransky Sisters. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites (http://perthfestival.com.au/index.cfm?go=events.view&Category=regional&Event=sisters2 in this case) or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) then you should do one of the following:
- If you have permission from the author leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page and send an email with the message to "permissions-en (at) wikimedia (dot) org". See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for instructions.
- If a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain leave a note at Talk:Kransky Sisters with a link to where we can find that note;
- If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page. Alternatively, you may create a note on your web page releasing the work under the GFDL and then leave a note at Talk:Kransky Sisters with a link to the details.
Otherwise, you are encouraged to rewrite this article in your own words to avoid any copyright infringement. After you do so, you should place a {{hangon}} tag on the article page and leave a note at Talk:Kransky Sisters saying you have done so. An administrator will review the new content before taking action.
It is also important that all Wikipedia articles have an encyclopedic tone and follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Vaudeville edits
[edit]Just dropping a line to say that I'm reverting most of your recent edits on the vaudeville page. I must confess I don't understand where a lot of the contentions come from. Vaudeville was (and the genre is avowedly past tense in the 21st century) not a melodramatic form. As an historically situated dramatic genre, "melodrama" has a fairly well defined place in theatre history. (See David Grimstead's Melodrama Unveiled for a good overview.) If, however, you employ the term "melodramatic" as a metaphor (i.e. overly emotional, overly dramatic), it was not that either (in any cumulative sense). Some sketches were brief melodramas, of course--though few--but others were juggling dogs, yodelers, or opera vocalists. More important, the vaudeville written of in this WP article is the historically situated United States/Canadian entertainment form that lasted from the the early 1880s to the early 1930s. Traditionally, it began with Tony Pastor's "clean show" (1881) and ended with the Palace shifting over to predominantly cinema (1932). Definitionally, vaudeville depended on a performer base, a travel route, circuits, a star system, etc., It has therefore not been practiced in any real sense for over seventy years. Sponge Bob and Monty Python are in no way vaudeville. One might say they often play upon the Rabelaisian spirit associated with many vaudeville comic acts (e.g., The Three Keatons), but keep in mind vaudeville also contained harp soloists, classical recitation, clog dancing, scenes from "Faust," and lectures from famed explorers. Simply locating one small element in other forms--in this case, the madcap comedy you seem to seem to associate with it--does not resuscitate a deceased form of entertainment. Many of the examples you name, in fact, would be more fairly described as "variety performance:" variegated acts presented in a related sequence. "Muppet Show" or "Saturday Night Live" would also be instances of this. Folks who use the term "vaudeville" to refer to any of these phenomena do so in the loosest, most colloquial, and/or least historically grounded manner. One would never include the example of Watergate, which John Dean described as "a cancer on the presidency," for example, in the WP article on cancer. For a good overview of vaudeville, see Robert Snyder's The Voice of the City. Thanks for all your interest in the field. --Patchyreynolds 05:46, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:ZonesASK.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploading File:ZonesASK.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 uploaded by following this link.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Chris G Bot (talk) 00:12, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
File permission problem with File:Keyline irrigation channel at Orana.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Keyline irrigation channel at Orana.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 23:25, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
