Orphaned fair use image (Image:Sodaconstructor Daintywalker.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:Sodaconstructor Daintywalker.png. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Durin21:40, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
Fair use image use
After I removed a fair image from your userpage with a detailed edit summary [1], you re-added the very same image back to your userpage [2]. Please be advised that per policy at Wikipedia:Fair use criteria item #9, the use of fair use tagged images is not permitted on userpages, templates, or any other non-main article namespace pages. I am re-removing the image. Please do not re-add it as this violates policy. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. Thanks, --Durin16:11, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
My schools IP adress has been blocked from editing Wikipedia. It probably happened because a few kids at my school thought it would be fun to vandalize. Anyway my whole school shares the same IP address. lol Sodaplayer talkcontributions01:32, 15 February 2007 (UTC) I found out the school IP. See what some kids did. I can't believe that they would want to hurt wikipedia. :(
Check out the contributions by 205.127.66.4 and Special:Contributions/205.127.66.4
Currently, the method of tagging articles is to place {{WPFS}} at the bottom of the article. There's a discussion on the WPFS talk page as to whether the tag should be placed on the article or talk namespace, or both.

Hide/Show Code
Here is the code: {| class="toccolours collapsible collapsed" width=99%
|-
! colspan="2" | text/title
|-
|thing you want to be hidden or shown
|}
The class says "collapsed". If you want the table to be shown when the page is loaded, delete the "collapsed". ^_^ KeybladeSephiTalkContributions03:34, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Adoption
Hi; unfortuntely, I'm all booked for adoptions :(. I'm sure there are others who are free and willing to adopt though. — Deckiller13:37, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I am an adoptee, I am looking forward to adopt you. Please leave a message on my talkpage if you want me to adopt you. Thanks! Real9601:09, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Sodaplayer, I have been watching your contributions and achievements and am honored to award you this Exceptional Newcomer Award for just being an exceptional newcomer! Good luck in the future, NSR7721:35, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
Congrats!
Congratulations!
Congratulations on your recent adoption, Sodaplayer, and welcome to Wikipedia! I saw that you have expressed an interest in being adopted by an experienced editor. Being an experienced editor myself, I accepted your request. Whether you want to learn about wiki markup, find something to do, or just talk to somebody, I'm the person to see about it - just leave a message on my talk page. Remember, I am willing to help you and make your time here more enjoyable. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have, and remember to "be BOLD!"- I'm here to help you; no question is a stupid one. In the mean time, here are some pages that you might find helpful, in case you haven't already gotten the official welcoming:

Hi! You asked at Real96's talk page about getting on IRC, so I hoped that I could help (if you don't mind). I noticed that you use Firefox (so do I!), so a convenient IRC client should be ChatZilla, an extension that is downloadable here. Assuming that you want to get on #wikipedia (the channel for Wikipedia, etc.), you can do the following:
Download ChatZilla
Restart Firefox
Go to Tools, and open ChatZilla
Type "/nick Sodaplayer" in the box (you'll see it)
Click on "freenode", a blue link
Type "/join #wikipedia" when connected
I'll see you there, hopefully :) If you have any questions, or would prefer to use another IRC client (such as mIRC), please leave a note at my talk page. Thanks! GracenotesT § 01:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the barnstar! I didn't even notice until today, sorry about that. Thanks for watching my page! I was really active on Wikipedia for most of last year, but I slowed down significantly this year due to school stuff, so I might not catch a lot of things. :P –- kungming·2(Talk)06:08, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
First, congrats on accomplishing the "Presidential Environmental Youth Award" for your outstanding efforts to improve the environment. Second, I see that you are familiar with Wikipedia and how to get around, so I am congratulating you in completing the Adopt-A-User program (see below). Third, if you want to have your page worked on, please go to Wikipedia:Trading Spaces. Cheers! Real9610:19, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
Dear Sodaplayer, Congratulations for completing the Adopt-a-User program!!! If you have further questions concerning Wikipedia or the policies, please let me know! -- Miranda
I added welcome on the top of your userpage so that you will have a reference to the core policies. Real9601:38, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
In the absence of other nominations, free software is the article for improvement by the WikiProject for the week of 4/22-4/28. Please help rearrange the article, primarily, and make any improvements that you can think of. Hopefully, as the article is already pretty good, we can bring it to an FA. Thanks! --Liπus the Turbogeek(contact me)12:22, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
Wasatch Talk
John, we really don't need things like "I am planning to work on this page". Really, what's the point? We can delete stuff like that, but not anything on discussion. Please, use your brain, logic, and common sense on this. KeybladeSephi(Talk)(Contributions)03:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
That guy don't have the mind of his own copying others works like that. I am just going to ignore him. Anyway, Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your concern. Chris23:45, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
Well KeybladeSephi is my friend. It's pretty funny how we found out he copied his page. At school we were finding images of the solar system so when looking at the section with pages with this image we found "testing3". Then KeybladeSephi got really mad at Matthew.
ay, the 'bot' i run is an assisted bot which requires me to approve each and every edit it makes. i use it to welcome new users and other time taking tedious changes. are you in need of a bot ? Matthew Yeager19:00, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I removed the speedy deletion tag you placed on this article. At least one uninvolved user has disputed the deletion on the talk page, and as a dean of a university's school, I would also think at first glance that Pettigrew is sufficiently notable. This lack of certainty regarding notability means that any further request to delete should probably be made through an avenue like AfD. Thanks. Johnleemk | Talk08:23, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
The redirect to the islands sounds best. I don't think another page is needed, maybe just a note at the top of the page. Godlord201:43, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

If you did not create this media file but want to use it on Wikipedia, there are two ways to proceed. First, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list if you believe one of those fair use rationales applies to this file. Second, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.
