Heh[edit]

You know, sometimes, even when you're in the midst of very fervently disagreeing with someone, you reread something, you chuckle, and you tip their hat to them for that bit of cleverness, if not for anything else. — Mike • 15:50, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Netwriter[edit]

Since you seem to be having the same problem with this individual, I'm wondering if you could advise me who I should raise a complaint with? He is continually posting my name on his userpage against my wishes, and despite my continually removing it. In additon, he keeps deleting my requests from his talk page that he not do so, in an apparent attempt to hide them. Thanks for any help. Nick Cook 22:52, 26 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your help! Nick Cook 09:03, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, wanted to drop you a note here rather than on User talk:Netwriter re this Afd. I'm sure you didn't mean it to sound this way, but noting that "very little of Netwriter's contributions survive in the current revision" can come across as if to suggest his contributions were less than constructive. Particularly for a newer user, this can foment a "the rest of the community is against me" feeling. Thanks for taking this into consideration. :) RadioKirk (u|t|c) 19:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your edit to Independent film[edit]

I am referring to this edit[1]. It seems you are mistaken in calling this link spam, that site is both on-topic and non-commercial. Please try to assume good faith in the future. HighInBC 20:37, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Once again you have removed my link for 'self promotion'. As I already pointed out to you and the talk page of the article this is not just reason for removing something. It seems as though you are simply reverting me repeatedly without attempting to discuss it. I gave 24 hours notice on the talk page asking for peoples opinions on this link and that is the place to discuss it. Please stop unilaterally reverting my edits without justification.

To quote the guideline WP:NOT that you pointed out to me:

You are free to write about yourself or projects you have a strong personal involvement in. However, do remember that the standards for encyclopedic articles apply to such pages just like any other, including the requirement to maintain a neutral point of view, which is difficult when writing about yourself.

Simply being involved with the website in question does not preclude it. If you have an objection regarding the encyclopedic quality of this link please address that. Do not simply revert me. Thank you. HighInBC 17:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have just read your response on the talk page now, thank you for addressing the encylopic value of the link this time. Please assume good faith in that this was not an attempt to promote my site. While it does retain it's copyrights it does not turn a profit and is ran for the sake of other independent film enthusiests. HighInBC 17:27, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

filmmaking links[edit]

Just wanted to let you know that I reverted the links you restored to the article. They are indeed good sites that showcase low-budget films, but at the end of the day they are sites to view films, and a limited genre of them at that. Per WP:MOS, article links should be minimal and directly pertinent to the topic. Personally, I feel that even the links that remain are too biased towards indy filmmaking as it is, but that's certainly not surprising, as it is the mode of filmmaking that far more people have experience with. In any case, just wanted to let you know of my edits, in case you wanted to discuss further either on our user pages or on the article discussion page. Thanks!

Animaniacs[edit]

I never said Pinky and the Brain contained Animaniacs shorts. I'm aware that PatB was its own show at that point. I just meant that since PatB spun-off from Animaniacs, it should be included that the PatB DVDs come out the same day, just as a tidbit. That way, fans of both shows would know when both come out in one easy sentence as opposed to having to search individually for Animaniacs and then Pinky and the Brain.

List of Indenpendent Films[edit]

TheRealFennShysa (Talk | contribs) (revert - HOW is that film significant?)

Commenting on you edit removing Video de Familia from the list of Significant Independent Films. That film caused a commotion upon its realease in Cuba, critics hailed it and the audiences were devastated it for it's sincere portrayal of a taboo subject. This is english speaking Wikipedia, not Anglo-culture only. It would be more appropriate if you researched the topic somewhat before making such desitions and potentially discouraging involvement.

I just noticed your comment on your last edit. Does he no longer live in Trois-Rivières? If so then it is fine with me if you put the information that he did back in. I'm just concerned since it is a fairly small town and it seems like an invasion of privacy since someone could look up his family in the phone book. I've done the same kind of thing with some other living person articles. Wishing you all the best. Steve Dufour 13:06, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

fair-use images[edit]

The usage of Image:B5 delenn03.jpg in Mira Furlan is not consistent with the Wikipedia fair-use guideline on images. The guideline outlines television screenshots as fair-use "for critical commentary and discussion of the cinema and television." Furthermore, the requisite detailed fair-use rationale on the image's page specifies that "the image is only used to illustrate the fictional subject, and not to illustrate a non-fictional but related subject (such as the actor or illustrator)."

The image is not used for informational purposes of Mira Furlan, nor related critical commentary where it would be appropriate. It is only being used to show the reader what Ms. Furlan's character looked like on Babylon 5; a usage which would be fair-use on the character's page (and is), but not here. I've removed the image again and I hope this makes sense to you. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 22:22, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:ZachPicture.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:ZachPicture.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. -- Rossrs 03:55, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see you[edit]

I see that you are clearly just as annoyed as I am about the category changes to the various Star Wars articles from "science fantasy" to "science fiction" or even this new "science fantasy/science fiction (disputed)" trend that this user has attempted to begin. The dispute is being argued in the Talk:Star Wars page and I would really appreciate it if you would run in there and back me up. Thanks. :) The Filmaker 02:47, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question[edit]


Re: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Star_Trek:_New_Voyages&diff=92942190&oldid=92857422

I see you reverted my edit to the Star Trek New Voyages page; I uploaded an image, but this upload is not even in my contribution history.

Please be honest with me: Did you really find a red-link when you got there? If you say "yes," then I will believe you.

If you are innocent of this delete, then someone esle deleted my valid upload -I had copyright permission, as I had explained in edit comments.

Thank you in advance for your assistance; I don't much check my talk page; You may reply to me at Gww1210@aol.com

GordonWatts 10:21, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I certainly can't delete an uploaded image - that would take an administrator, which had already happened at the time, as the image link was displaying a red link to a non-existant file. Simple as that. TheRealFennShysa
That is right - I had all but forgotten how uploads work; I have not edited here in months if not years. Thank you for the info and the reply. If I am not mistaken, the admin deleting it must notify the person who uploaded it by a message on his or her talk page, and that never happened; I am at a loss on how to proceed; If I find time, I may go to the village pump or some similar page and see assistance. Thank you once agian, and take care.GordonWatts 02:50, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Academic Challenger (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) blocked the user indefinitely, but he did leave a note on the block log that it was a vandal sockpuppet. If the guy comes back tomorrow under a different account, then I'll consider temporary protection of the article(s). Nishkid64 00:02, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mrsupes[edit]

So it depends what happens next I think. If he/she get bored with constantly making new wiki accounts just to vandalize, then we win. If not and makes it into a sick game of some sort, as usually children have no real imagination these days, then we're in for a long battle.--LifeStar 19:38, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable images[edit]

Please refrain from removing the replaceable tag from images, such as you did for Image:Delenn.jpg. If you believe it would be impossible to create a replaceable freely-licensed image, please indicate why. Acceptable reasons include that the person is dead or in hiding. In this particular case, the image is clearly in violation of WP:FU and thus may not be used on the Wikipedia to depict Mira Furlan. --Yamla 15:24, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You said: "Actually, by reading the particulars on WP:FU, I believe I was correct in the edits I made - the page specifically states: Some copyrighted images may be used on Wikipedia, providing they meet both the legal criteria for fair use, and Wikipedia's own fair use guidelines. A little lower, it reads: Publicity photos: For identification and critical commentary. See Wikipedia:Publicity photos. The image in question is undoubtedly from the fourth season press kit for Babylon 5 (I scanned the original slide myself), and was expressly sent out for promotional purposes. As there is not yet a free image available for Mira Furlan, this image should, by my reading, be acceptable until replaced."

No. "Copyrighted images that reasonably can be replaced by free/libre images are not suitable for Wikipedia." (WP:FU). Additionally, policy criteria #1 specifically prohibits it, as does counterexample #8. This is an image being used to show what Mira Furlan looks like. --Yamla 16:13, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please note that we are not permitted to use fair-use images until a free image becomes available. --Yamla 16:13, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Star Trek Audio Dramas[edit]

Recently there was an unsuccessul attempt to create an article for Pendant Productions, one of the production Groups that is making Star Trek audio dramas, specifically ST: Defiant. I negotiated to have it put on my talk space so that I could rehabilitate it by turning it into a split-off article on Star Trek fan audio dramas. Its starting to take shape now and I'd like a bit of advise on different formatting aspects of it: is it too big? Should i drop the actors wikitable? Am I using the InfoBoxes correctly? ... It currently isn't fully populated with data so it isn't ready to post as an article yet - when it is, I'll get your opinion as to its viability re: notability since I think the concept is as full of holes as a cobblers purse. I'd appreciate your help getting it set up before it get's released though so that the majority of problems are settled before hand. if you don't have the time yourself, is there someone you know who could help?

Orphaned fair use image (Image:TinyToyStories.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:TinyToyStories.jpg. 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:TinyToyStories.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:TinyToyStories.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 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BigrTex 22:23, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

US Network Schedules[edit]

Sorry, I was using a cut/paste edit summary and didn't realize what it said until later. Per User:JzG and User:A Man In Black, they want ALL schedules removed. Newscast or otherwise. Which, I apologize for calling it a newscast schedule before.

For some reason, they are siteing WP:NOT#DIR and even though this is part of WP:TVS's "Article Structure", WP:TVS is not fighting this at all.

I will be honest, I have tried to fight this, even proposing a rule change to allow them. Only to be met with ridicule, while being threatened by admins. So, I apologize if this deletion has removed your work (it has mine as well). Please know that I am not the one calling for the deletions, I am just doing the dirty work.

Please talk to User:JzG and User:A Man In Black or anyone at WP:TVS. Maybe you will have a better shot than I did. My apologizes...NeutralHomer T:C 06:16, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:SWFFA_trophy.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria.

Unspecified source for Image:B5discs.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:B5discs.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. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

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 07:55, 17 July 2007 (UTC).

Fan Wars as an open source film[edit]

I'd like to discuss about the inclusion of an article about Fan Wars[3], the open source movie project I'm working on right now. It is a future film. While it is a fan film, it will be similar to the 2008 film Fanboys. I do not want to be a spammer, I wish I want to add more reliable sources and verifiability to the article. Bryan Seecrets 08:06, 7 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's nothing to discuss. The film has not been made, and based on your posting history on TFN it's very likely that the film will not ever get made. If, somehow, it does get made, then, and only then, would there be the *possibility* of it being notable enough for an encyclopedic article, but that's very unlikely, based on current information. As it stands now, it's completely non-notable. Wikipedia is not a personal website for your to present information on your own project - go get your own webhost for that.

Fair use disputed for Image:MarvinHorrorHost.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:MarvinHorrorHost.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.

Image:Zacherley.jpg[edit]

I have tagged Image:Zacherley.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. 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.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:DinosaursDVD.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:DinosaursDVD.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:27, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:StoneTrek.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:StoneTrek.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia 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 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. After Midnight 0001 22:17, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Star Trek fan productions[edit]

Thanks for stepping back in with that article. A number of people have literally shredded the piece. I'll do what I can to back you up as it gets put back together. There's no reason that this article shouldn't be as complete as the fan film listing for the Star Wars titles. --Mhking (talk) 01:10, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Intellect spam[edit]

Thanks for the heads up on the anonIP editor continuing to spam with Intellect books entries. Initially, I added an additional warning; I then further reviewed the connection to the registered address as well as my warnings 2 days ago. As such, I've blocked the IP address. — ERcheck (talk) 17:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
