License tagging for Image:Extra hours.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Extra hours.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 20:06, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Cosmos patrol
[edit]An editor has nominated Cosmos patrol, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cosmos patrol and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

Gary Numan Tracks
[edit]Hi there. I'm doing New Page patrol and noticed that you are in the process of creating pages for individual tracks. Are you sure that this is a good idea? To meet the verifiabilitry creiteria we would need to have multiple non trivial sources for the information in each article and I'm sure that there are already articles for Gary Numan albums that could be edited to contain the same information. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this before I consider whether to nominate "the joy circuit" for deletion. Also, you need to consider reading the The manual of style as that article should probably be called The Joy Circuit (Song) or something like it. --Spartaz Humbug! 19:15, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
MY RESPONSE!
There is a whole category of Gary Numan Songs, many of them created by me. ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Gary_Numan_songs ) I just like to be the little computer fairy that starts pages off, I let Someone Else do the hard work! :-)
Seriously, please don't kill "The Joy Circuit", I really want to find out more about it and a part of that is creating wikipedia entries with my limited knowlege and then waiting for someone more knowlegable to come along and improve them.
--Badnewswade 19:32, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
PS: Also, I can't seem to find the link that lets you edit the page title! --Badnewswade 19:32, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, I thought I responded. I have asked another user more knowledgable than me about whether we will be able to properly source individual articles to meet verifiability and notability guidelines. In the meantime I am taking no action. To correct the title of the article, you need to click on the move tab and indicate the new location. I suggest you read the "how to" first. In the meantime, please carry on but remember to add {{music-stub}} at the bottom of the articles as it tells other users that the article needs some work. Regards --Spartaz Humbug! 05:59, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
- My colleague agrees that we should give it a whirl but we need to avoid the new articles simply being original research and fragments. Please do not add lyrics as they are copyrighted and we have a strict copyright policy. I suggest that you link your stubs to the article that the song came from by linking the article from the track listing. Please feel free to leave messages at my talk page if you need anything checking or want help with any mark-up, policy stuff. Good luck. --Spartaz Humbug! 06:09, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Article deletion
[edit]No need to move articles to "PLEASE DELETE ME" or another such title...just add {{db-author}} if you're the only editor who has made any significant contribution to the page. — Scientizzle 17:03, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Extra hours.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Extra hours.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:33, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of We Have a Technical
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Ambox_warning_yellow.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_yellow.svg.png)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article We Have a Technical, 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.

A tag has been placed on REMF requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 01:38, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
Quantum Entanglement question
[edit]I know you're not conducting a tutorial here, but...
In the Quantum Entanglement discussion, you said, "So when you measure the one, you also know what the state of the other atom is through deduction, but as the states of both atoms change randomly over time this does you no good at all..."
I've tried to understand as much as I can about Quantum Entanglement (as a layman), but I hadn't realized that the state of each atom changed over time. If that's the case, I guess that a change in one coincides with a change in the other, which is why they're said to be "entangled."
My question is: Since measuring the system essentially destroys it, how could anyone know this?
I suspect that the answer might be WAY over my head, but I thought I'd ask anyway in the hope that there might be a very-high-level layman's answer that I cold grasp.
