AfD nomination

Hey, I see you nominated Adam moshcatel for deletion, and I completely agree with you, but please read WP:CSD, which can help us remove pages such as this much faster. Thank you for helping to keep the wiki free of nonsense! Michael Billington (talk • contribs) 03:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Next time you can use {{db-attack}} for that sort of thing, thanks, Mak (talk) 03:23, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

San Jose problem corrected

Law and Gov section heading back where it should be--needed to close a prior footnote. Thanks for your diligence. --rinari

GWB Revert

Thanks for the heads up--I thought that might be what happened. I just put my edit back, but I'm not sure whether you noticed the 'thumping' reference down the bottom; I think I'm its fairly safe ground POV-wise (it's his words, after all) but feel free to edit or remove it if you disagree Cambridgegames 17:11, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Don't know, it looks ok to me. --Guinnog 18:24, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

totally agree with you on the trolls policy but if you check my edit you will notice that i did indeed removed the word suck. and so put that. I will try to stick the more mundane rv from now on in the case of the word suck Trey 20:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Maiko obi.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Maiko obi.jpg. The image description 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 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.

Broken Link

I went to the discussion on the board, because the amount of information in Economic Policy is pitiful compared to other information given in the article. On the discussion I was suggested to make a main article containing that information instead. I, myself, do not have the time to make such an article, but I would like to see more information on the topic, thus the link. 65.172.9.135 02:00, 16 November 2006 (UTC) Forgot to sign in Fephisto 02:02, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My error. Sorry, I was in a anon-vandalism reverting buzz and mistook it for a test comment by an anon. Had I noticed it was a reliable user, I wouldn't have touched it. Gzuckier 14:53, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"titular" really is a valid word, although it was used wrong in that context. :) Danny Lilithborne 01:36, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Sachi.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Sachi.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. 05:10, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Red links

Hey, Iriseyes, I note you've been unlinking red links. There are definitely times where that's the correct thing to do, but in fact it is usually better to leave them there. Perhaps you have already read up on this question, but just in case I thought it might be helpful to point you to Wikipedia:Red link. Hope it's helpful! --Iustinus 05:14, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Thanks for fixing my talk page"

I think the message you put on my Talk page wasn't for me: "That guy was getting back at me for warning him about putting the same message on Moeron's user page. Thanks for reverting it so quickly! --Iriseyes 13:04, 5 December 2006 (UTC)" Best wishes, Pol098 15:00, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, I realized that after I posted that message. --Iriseyes 22:17, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your support in my my RfA, which passed with a tally of 117/0/1. I hope that my conduct as an admin lives up to the somewhat flattering confidence the community has shown in me. Please don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page should you need anything or want to discuss something with me.

You opposed this nomination partly because the photo was a jpeg. I'm just letting you know that photos are supposed to be in jpeg format. See Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Format.

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.

I have a question

This will sound weird since we don't know each other and just because how it sounds but I am getting somewhere with it, trust me. :)

Do you play RuneScape? — $PЯINGεrαgђ 04:47, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I was only wondering. Way back when I played, there was a girl there that I knew, with a username similar to yours, and I had wondered if you were her. — $PЯINGεrαgђ 19:12, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fortunately none of the friends I had there (by the time I gradually left I had about 105 but only about 20 were on regularly) were any closer than a "Hi how are you" when we got on and a "bye have a good one when we got off. Here, though, I'm glad I have e-mail addresses, chat handles, &c. :) — $PЯINGεrαgђ 03:32, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is, but it was getting too hard for me to keep up with all the updates which was probably the main reason I left. Apart from that it's probably my favourite game on the whole Internet. — $PЯINGεrαgђ 21:16, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What??? I don't understand your comment (??!!). The three-finger-salute is the salute used by Serbian nazis. I see you don't know anything about Serbia. If so, why do you change contributions about something you don't know anything? Inform yourself before you change things. Thank you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.179.62.12 (talk) 14:18, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:Etiquette. When I work to revert vandalism, I work quickly. When I see the word "nazi" and "ultranationalistic" replacing "some", I assume it to be vandalism. In addition, while quickly going over the article, there doesn't seem to be any nazi influence on the sign as it was popularized in 1991 and is usually used in sports matches by youth. Before you write inflammatory remarks on my user talk, please check your references and be polite. --Iriseyes 19:44, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Darker Than Black

The impersonal tone of the episode titles indicates that 'the' is better than 'my'. It's hard to explain, but it's like you'll know it when you hear it, or an experience type of thing with Japanese.

For the final episode's title, you lost the 'miru' and 'kurayami' at the very least in your translation. -Atashi 05:04, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tite Kubo (resolved)

How much of the information was false? Zombie Powder was cancelled, and later Bleach rejected, was it not? And I think TV.com is an official website, not a rip off Wikipedia. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 18:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you're not gonna bother answering, I will revert your edits and mine to Tite Kubo by assuming TV.com is not a fansite. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 14:46, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You still didn't answer my initial questions. I read the comments on the talk page, but how much of it is true? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 05:52, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Then TV.com is a confirmed fansite? Which dates are you referring to? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:17, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

{sighs}, you still didn't answer my concern on whether TV.com is verifiable or not. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:22, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is different from what you're telling me. It's quite possible you're misunderstanding the situation. I'd like for you to review the edits carefully. Thoughts? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:35, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See my comments on your talk page. I'm going to sleep now, so this blizt can wait until tomorrow, ok? =) --iriseyes^talk 06:44, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Here are several websites which support my belief: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. There's probably more where that came from. Are all of these not verifiable to your eyes? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 06:48, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As I told you...five exchanges ago, if you can find a reference to back those claims up, by all means put them in. If only you had collected these links beforehand... --iriseyes^talk 17:00, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I gave you six different links, all supporting my claim, what are you currently asking of me? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 20:08, 12 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vivica Genaux Fair Use Rationale Question

I don't believe the use of the Vivica Genaux photo you've added satisfies that fair use rationale for such images, as it is not used "for identification and critical commentary on the film" as you have described. NickInBigD ^(Hey!) 21:10, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No fair use rational on Image:Vivica-rosina.jpg

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Vivica-rosina.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Vivica-rosina.jpg is an unfree image with no fair use rationale uploaded after May 4, 2006 which has been tagged as not having a rationale for more than 7 days (CSD I6).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Vivica-rosina.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Fair use rationale for Image:Vivica-rosina.jpg

BSS

Fansubbing is illegal and Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning the respect of copyrights, so no direct promotion of illegal activities here.Folken de Fanel (talk) 11:27, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then why is there a fansubbing article? --iriseyes^talk 21:35, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Because it doesn't promote teams releasing illegal stuff.Folken de Fanel (talk) 21:52, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Neither does a reference to it in the BSS disambiguation. I'm going to replace it now. --iriseyes^talk 23:45, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't remember agreeing with you on this point, so don't revert the article again by invoking this talk. It's useless if you're the only one agreeing with your claims.

To be clear, once and for all: there is no valid justification whatsoever for the maintaining of the reference in what you wrote here.

Of course, the mentionning of the precise name of a fansub team without any justification is indisputably a gratuitious promotion, because it allows the reader to clearly identify the team and to find it quickly on the web even if there is no direct link. Making it easier for readers to download copyrighted materials is not the aim of Wikipedia. Besides, one has to wonder what "Bullet Speed Sub", something that barely has 50 hits on google -and mainly on torrents search engines or fansub forums- would do on WP anyway. This team has no notability whatsoever, and basically, no existence except for the confidential group of people downloading from this team. The mention itself doesn't even direct to an actual WP article, contrary to all the other entries in the BSS disambiguation page (remember, "Wikipedia is not a directory of everything that exists or has existed"). These are some of the reasons why this reference cannot remain here, and why your insistence on keeping this reference on the page appears as a non-neutral, personal agenda aiming at promoting fansubs, while WP is not a tool for gratuitous promotion, moreover when it involves copyright violations.Folken de Fanel (talk) 12:11, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More than that, it seems like you have a personal agenda against fansubs. I can see from your talk page that you've been actively trying to remove references to fansubs in several articles, and stepping on some toes while doing so...In any case, BSS is indeed notable in the fansubbing community. Most fansub activity doesn't take place on websites, which is why you saw relatively few google results, but on IRC networks, usenet, etc. Aso, I don't get 50 hits, I get several thousand. Are you trying not to see something? --iriseyes^talk 18:53, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: BSS as a fansub group is the fourth result out of over eight million in a search for BSS. Hmmmmm??? --iriseyes^talk 19:11, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are you trying not to see this ? WP isn't a tool for gratuicious promotion, moreover when it concerns copyright violations. Making up false google results won't change this.Folken de Fanel (talk) 22:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That policy is obviously in regards to articles using illegal material, such as copyrighted images, etc. There is no policy stating "articles about illegal things are prohibited." And it's not a made-up google result, dear. Do one yourself and get the same results. --iriseyes^talk 14:59, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

What the heck, I'll throw in my two cents. Yes, we can talk about things like fansubs and things that may or may not be illegal, as long as the topic is notable. It's one thing to cover the topic and another to promote it. In any case, BSS might be notable, but noting about them is verifiable, thus we don't have an article for them. If we don't have an article for them then we don't add them to the disambig page per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) and/or WP:DISAMBIG. I'm greatful to BSS for all the work they've done (just finished watching their subs of GL the other day), but there's not much we can say about them on Wikipedia until such groups are verifiable and pass some basic notability guidelines. -- Ned Scott 07:59, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Finally, a voice of reason! I agree with you on verifiability and notability. I'll look into it and see what can be done. And yes, TTGL was great. :) --iriseyes^talk 22:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image without license

Unspecified source for Image:Lernerlogo.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Lernerlogo.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL.

Time for resolution

Hiya. For several months now, the article naming for 18th Century British royals has been ever-which-where — all over the shop. In an attempt to solve this, I have prepared a page for discussion: here. Please, please, please come and discuss, even contribute to the Poll. Cheers! D B D 15:31, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Westover1.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Westover1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:22, 16 December 2009 (UTC).

File permission problem with File:Maiko obi.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Maiko obi.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Orphaned non-free image File:Ain't I a Woman? (front cover).gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Ain't I a Woman? (front cover).gif. 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 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:23, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
