Wyatt

Tony still didn't like it; I do not want to revert him, I'm relatively patient. DGG 01:27, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up, I've dropped Tony a note. With the amount of legitimate G4 repostings on similar topics, I don't begrudge him the assumption. We'll talk over what his viewpoints are on the notability bar for these topics in general. Serpent's Choice 15:14, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

On editorial discretion and NPOV

I found myself agreeing whole-heartedly with your comments on the talk page for the Workshop of the BDJ/BLP arbitration case, and replied here. Thought I'd drop you a note in case you weren't watching the page. Carcharoth 11:34, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

I've now proposed a remedy on the Workshop page based on what you wrote. See here. Carcharoth 15:42, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

D&D wiki project consensus

A call to all members of the D&D wiki project. We are currently having a major dispute that needs to be settled by all members of the D&D wiki project. The dispute is as follows. 1. Should we put disambiguation tags on D&D articles preemptively or should we wait until there is an article conflict with some other Wikipedia article. Vote on preemptive or wait.

2. What should we label these tags? Example "child's play (module)", or "child's play (adventure)" and at this point we are taking all suggestions.

Image licensing question

Thank you for your recent review of the cryonics article. In it you wrote "And I have doubts about the licensing of the image in this article; for it to be released by Alcor under Creative Commons may require confirmation of that release with OTRS." I have been communicating with Alcor about the release of more images for this article. I suggested that officials of the organization upload with a Creative Commons tag, as that seemed to be the simplest way to authorize publication. Per the free licenses page, would Any-purpose

be a better license? Is there a problem with Creative Commons specifically? The free license page doesn't say anything about using the Open Ticket system for image licensing. If there is more to the process of releasing an image than uploading it with a credible authorization and license tag, can you enlighten me? Thanks. By the way, is there any license acceptable to Wikipedia that prohibits derivative work? Cryobiologist 21:59, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Basically, my concerns weren't anything to do with the CC license, but but making certain that the image is actually licensed that way. For images that are created by Wikipedia editors acting in their own capacities, licensing is easy. The creator says it is licensed, and so it is! But in the case of images owned by third parties or business entities, the situation is more complex, because Wikipedia editors might not adequately represent the businesses they say they do. But here, since you've been in contact with Alcor and they seem on board, the process is easy. Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission explains how this works; basically you email Alcor requesting the release, they respond, and you forward it to the listed address so the release can be documented. I hope this helps; let me know if you've got any questions with the process. Serpent's Choice 14:29, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Your reply was very helpful. I'll pass along the info. Thanks very much. Cryobiologist 06:27, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

Hey

If you can prove anyway that Extinctioners was featured in that magazine, I will re-close for good. All I need. Kwsn^(Ni!) 05:33, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I have improved the article in relation to some of the issues brought up by the review, and left a reply here. When you feel it is ready (after the lede has been fixed), you may want to review it again (to save it being another two weeks in the GA review backlog). Thanks! --Grimhelm 15:35, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Planar_HandbookCover.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Planar_HandbookCover.jpg. 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 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 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 19:51, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Image:MMIVCover.jpg

I have tagged Image:MMIVCover.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale.

Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 19:54, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
