Germar Rudolf/ Claus Wolfschlag
[edit]"We're so glad you're here!": yep. A tip: don't waste time and energy discussing with sockpuppets and trolls (and trolling SPs!), you can't win. Stick to what's needed to convince rational thinking others or the eventual admin reading the talk page. SPs and their ilk love to troll and to water the talk page with heaps of ..it, so future mediators will be discouraged to read them. Don't tell'em they're SPs, they know, they can't be shamed - and won't admit it anyway. Unless you have enough technical evidence to ask for a sockcheck, just don't bother. Related: there's one nazipedian on Germar Rudolf - you'll guess the name. This has to go or be amended. I'll see to it on weekend, help welcome. Cheers: --tickle me 02:31, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Tickle me, thanks for your warning which is very warrantable! There's no use in discussing with sock puppets, indeed. Besides, I find it quite alarmingly how many right wing extremists hang about in Wikipedia vandalizing articles. --Bogart99 11:16, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
Huntington Library images
[edit]Hi, Although the Huntington may assert a copyright, the do not, in fact, have a copyright. See Bridgeman Art Library v. Corel Corp.. In short, under US law in order for a work to be copyrightable, originality must be used to create the image. A slavish mechanical reproduction, such as a photograph does not require the creativity to qualify for copyright, This true even if producung the copy requires a great deal of skill and effort. Since the frontispiece under discussion is a public domain image any photograph of it will also be public domain. Dsmdgold 13:14, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
[edit]Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Bogart99. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Bogart99~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
