Hi Member, {{welcome}} to wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions to Goleta Union School District and Brandon School. I hope we can keep Brandon School but unfortunately detailed lists of staff etc don't go down too well around here, but if you look at the wikiproject schools WP:PJSCH and maybe BEEFSTEW you can find things which are more acceptable to include. I think the Accountability Report Cards have a lot of usable info. Kappa 09:34, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC) Hi, might I ask what is the purpose of Member/Wikipedia Front Page? If that is a personal page, it should probably be in the user namespace, at User:Member/Wikipedia Front Page. Eric119 04:04, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC) Template:Current-now-aniv & Template:Current-now[edit]Template:Current-now-aniv & Template:Current-now, both which you created, have been nominated for deletion at Templates for deletion.

The naming of national football teams in Wikipedia is standardised as "<countryname> national football team". -- Arwel 22:13, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC) What specifically in the Accra article do you think would benefit from a clean-up? While the article could benefit from expansion and perhaps division into sections, I'm not sure of the purpose of your tag. Warofdreams 23:40, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC) Tyler Garrett[edit]Thank you for helping to maintain the integrity of Wikipedia by tagging articles you see as requiring speedy deletion. Please note, though, that 'vanity' is not currently a criterion for speedy deletion, and such articles should be listed at votes for deletion. If you are not sure of the criteria for speedy delete, please look here. Denni☯ 03:24, 2005 July 16 (UTC) Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom[edit]You made an edit which caused formatting problems.

I'll be contributing to SB-county related articles; it's fun when I'm not writing about music. Thanks for your contributions too!

I am wondering what you are hoping to achieve with the article List of well known mathematical formulas. I am afraid that Wikipedians will get into long discussions about which formulas are well known and which are not. We already have a List of equations and List of mathematical identities; see List of lists of mathematical topics for more lists related to mathematics. So, what do you think? -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 20:09, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
I can't really be bothered about it. However, somebody else nominated the article for deletion; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of well known mathematical formulas. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 13:25, 20 November 2005 (UTC) Anything faster than a one-hundered twenty eighth note?[edit]Is there anything faster than a one-hundered twenty eighth note? --Member 01:14, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
DP[edit]Ah, yes, my high school. :-) There's already an article: Dos Pueblos High School, and it's not bad. Have a look! They will need to be merged/redirected. Antandrus (talk) 05:04, 11 December 2005 (UTC) Author citation (re Wollemia)[edit]Hi Member - there's a difference between conventions in botany and zoology in this, with plants one doesn't cite the year of publication in author citations, with animals the year is cited - MPF 16:46, 11 December 2005 (UTC) NPOV on Veganism[edit]Hi member... Could you elaborate on the reasons for the NPOV tag you placed on Veganism? I and others have just gone through a long and tiring edit war with the veggie-brandishing hordes, during which the page was protected for like 10 days. The current version is what we came to by consensus, and I'd rather not upset the fairly delicate peace we have at the moment without a good reason. Cheers, Skinwalker 23:00, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

Crusade move[edit]Hey, if you're going to move a page, never, ever, do it manually like you did with the crusades page. And if you're going to move a page, don't move it to a worse title. Adam Bishop 02:07, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
This image needs more information. Could you please tell me either where you found it, or put on there that you created it. Sorry if this seems a little pushy, but there really wasn't any info on the page. Palm_Dogg 06:41, 15 January 2006 (UTC) Edits to my user page[edit]Why were you editing my user page? If you were just fixing something, that's fine. In the future, please leave an edit summary that answers the question, "Why did you make these edits?" --TheLimbicOne(talk) 20:38, 16 January 2006 (UTC) re. Direct domain[edit]Yahoo and Google register domain names in the same way that anyone else does, by going to a domain name registrar and paying to register their domain names for a certain length of time (for example, the domain name "google.com" is registered through the registrar MarkMonitor until September 2011[3], when someone at Google will have to remember to send them some more money.) Who you need to go to, and how much it costs, varies according between top-level domains, but it doesn't cost much. Regarding your question, "Are there free or one time fee registars?", there is almost always an anual fee, although there are some sites that offer free domain names, typically in return for advertising - just type something like "free domain name" into google. -- AJR | Talk 23:50, 20 January 2006 (UTC) Request for edit summary[edit]Thank you for your contributions. And I have a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries more often when you contribute. An edit summary helps others understand what you changed when checking the watchlist or the recent changes, and often times complements studying the diff. Think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. I hope you don't mind. :) Cheers – Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:55, 29 January 2006 (UTC) Re: Sibelius[edit]I'm still unsure what you mean, I suppose because I haven't used Finale very much. What is "mass" copy and paste as opposed to ordinary copy and paste? Can you describe what you're trying to do, instead of how you would do it in Finale? rspeer / ɹəədsɹ 19:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Confirmation that Kwantus passed away[edit]You left a message on User:Kwantus's talk page that the editor passed away. Can you confirm this, including (if possible) a link to an obituary or something. I have created a page at Wikipedia:Deceased Wikipedians and would like to honor Kwantus on the page but need more information and a source of info to do so. Thanks for any help you can give.--Alabamaboy 00:01, 23 March 2006 (UTC) I noticed your request that you be informed of your approval as an AWB user; it seems that Bluemoose has added you. Cordially, Joe 23:44, 27 March 2006 (UTC) Main Page banner[edit]I just want you to be aware that there is a Main Page banner template. Whenever Wikipedia, as a community, has something to say to the public, it's on the Main Page. It's been there since 2004 and is edit protected (does not apply to you, of course). --hello, i'm a member | talk to me! 17:38, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

However, it's not really at a level to be included in the article. It's been commented out for now, but do you think that you could go back and make it easier to understand? Thanks so much. --Mets501talk 01:19, 6 April 2006 (UTC) Image copyright problem with Image:False potato beetle.jpg[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:False potato beetle.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy). The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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.

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. 04:07, 4 March 2007 (UTC) ADQ party colour[edit]Regarding your changes to Template:Canadian politics/party colours/ADQ, you need to note that the colour you've insisted upon is too close to, and not easily distinguishable from, the colour already in use to designate the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Clancampbellcrest.jpg[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Clancampbellcrest.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 (talk) 20:17, 13 February 2008 (UTC) Sorry[edit]Sorry about my formal catchphrase.

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list. If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006! If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate.

Nothing is certain yet, wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Last week everyone was certain he was moving to Liverpool. When a transfer is made and a contract signed, then we can update the article to say he has moved. At the moment he hasn't moved and it is incorrect to update the article as such in my opinion.

California High-Speed Rail[edit]Hi. I've converted several of the report links from inline-with-description to reference-footnote format. Where I thought the title was important to the text I left it as is. If you think anything should be changed, please let me know, and why. While I try to follow the guidelines, I am not a slave to a style-convention when it works against the purpose of the text, and I use "guidelines" as merely that, guides, not a straight-jacket. As it stands, it is a fairly comprehensive review of the whole project, and has good links to other sources. Length is long (but not too long), and organization is far better than what was there before. I have considered splitting the article into two parts, probably a history part, and a current and future part. However, I'm resisting that as long as I can. As before, if you've suggestions, let me know. As to your concern with headings, I don't know what you're referring to. The TOC was too long because I had too many subheads, and I got complaints about that. So, I revised the format to shorten the TOC, and merely bolded the subtopics in each section. This makes it far more readable and referenceable. I don't see what else I should do to improve things here, so if you've suggestions please let me know. Thanks for your time and effort!

Speedy deletion nomination of Template:0809sbwildfires[edit]![]() A tag has been placed on Template:0809sbwildfires requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion because it is an unused duplicate of another template, or a hard-coded instance of another template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted. If the template is not actually the same as the other template noted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page explaining how this one is different so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{substituted}}</noinclude>). If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page's talk page, where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project. Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template. ArbCom 2023 Elections voter message[edit]Hello!
