They are not copyright infringement they are pictures I TOOK OF MY OWN PERSONAL COLLECTIONS! Thank you. JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:34, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
If they were copyright infringement everyone who ever posted their own personal collections would get arrested for it. It's not copyright infringement and what I've posted is correct, they are my personal collection and I give permission for them to be on here for the use of my user and I use them on my user page. So please everyone stop messing with them. JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:39, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
UH no just cause the CD's are doesn't mean that what I do is wrong. Like I said posting your own personal collection is not copyright infringement and as such my pictures should not be on the whole WP:CSD for any reason. JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:44, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Okay I'm not gonna ask you again get off my pictures they are not copyright infringement and as they are mine I have the right to remove that so back off! JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:50, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE NO FUCKING RIGHT TO DO THAT! NOW BACK THE FUCK OFF MY PICTURES! JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:53, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
And if you look at the pictures they have stuff in the background which overrides what you are putting and makes them free. JamesAlan1986 *talk 10:58, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
You are rude how DARE YOU COPYRIGHT INFRINGE MY PERSONAL PICTURES! YOU INFRINGED MY RIGHTS! JamesAlan1986 *talk 11:05, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
You just cost Wikipedia a contributor. Hope you're happy. Goodbye. JamesAlan1986 *talk 11:18, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Crisco, could you take a look at what I posted at Talk:Tom Skinner? Thanks. Carcharoth (talk) 01:33, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Hokusai
Luckily, I can read Edo period hentaigana. However, I'm a little rusty because I haven't worked with it in a while, so a transcription would help in some respects, at least to make sure that I'm reading things consistently. MSJapan (talk) 03:08, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
Yes, I saw the transcription on the page. Even when I worked with texts that were transcribed (and commercially published) for academia in modern Japanese, there were always a few mistakes, but in much lengthier material - this should be fine. I'll get this sorted as soon as I can. I will see how long this takes me, and let me know if there's other stuff as well. MSJapan (talk) 06:15, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
To a certain extent, classical is classical - just like in English, there are words that are denoted with particular meanings in particular time periods, and the doctionaries don't discriminate. Even if someone is a period specialist, it is very rare that said person has not worked on something from every period. Frankly, I find the earlier material easier, as there's less variation in the writing style. MSJapan (talk) 06:32, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
I can do it, but I haven't had the chance as of yet. MSJapan (talk) 06:05, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi Crisco 1492, I just entered the corporation Forsalebyowner.com on Wikipedia. You were very kind to help with my first contribution of Damon Giglio. Thank you! Unfortunately it was deleted and I took your advice and changed article to the buisness instead of the person. Can you please give it a quick glance.

Opinion on image
thoughts on this image?
Hi Crisco. I was thinking about nominating an image for FPC, but I have to admin, I know little or nothing about image quality. The image is File:Doom Bar from Hawker's Cove.jpg, which shows a sandbank at high water - you can still see the shoal under the water level. I'm confident that it does have the encyclopedic value for Doom Bar, and the compostition looks fine to me, I'm just unsure if the quality/colour levels/light levels are up to FPC standard. As I've seen you on FPC a few times I thought I might beg your opinion? Is it even worth nominating? WormTT· (talk) 10:35, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Also, if there are any adjustments you think could be made to improve the image (say, scaling?) I'd appreciate the suggestions (or you're welcome to do them yourself!) WormTT· (talk) 10:41, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
It's a fairly nice view, but I don't think flat lands will get much support. What part of the image is the sand bar itself, the one at the right edge or across the bay? The grass along the bottom doesn't seem to have much encyclopedic value, so I'd crop that. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:46, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Can crop that without too much difficulty. The one we're looking at it towards the forefront of the picture, with the waves breaking over it. You can see the shape of it from the colours of the water. WormTT· (talk) 10:49, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Hmm... I'd go for a higher angle preferably as we are describing a fairly flat landmark. Does the bar include some of the grasslands, or just the sand? I've done a crop and touched up the levels a bit, but my connection is rather slow so I do not know when it will finally upload. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:55, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Here's my edit. I'm not exactly a miracle worker, but it seems a little better than before. To be honest, I'd probably give weak support to the image as I feel that a higher angle would be better. Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:59, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
(edit conflict)It's a couple of hundred miles away, so I'm not sure when I'll get another chance to take one at a higher angle! ;) Thanks for doing the upload, there's of course no rush, it was just more of a curiosity, I've not done much image work before. The bar itself is just the sand, the shape is shown quite well in File:Camel Estuary 1825 and 2010.png (I was standing approx level with the word "Doom Bar"). I think I might put it forward then, just to experience the process. Thank you very much for your help WormTT· (talk) 11:02, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
You're welcome. Good luck! Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:05, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi, the Kris pic: I wan't in on the first nom, and it's a bit puzzling. Two knives, not one. And what did you mean by "derivative work"? Thanks. Tony(talk) 12:21, 16 September 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for finding the problem with The Shirelles and for more than fixing it. Moonriddengirl(talk) 14:26, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Obviously, you were working on this article before you found the issue, but it doesn't really matter to me. :) I can be highly disheartened when contributors put years of effort into an unusable base, as with this article. It makes me sick to see all that good faith volunteer time wasted. :/ Not having to roll back the article to this version makes me very happy. That the article we wound up with is far better than the copyvio one it replaced is just really, really fabulous icing on the cake. :D --Moonriddengirl(talk) 14:26, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Hey, just wanted to let you know that I updated the picture copyright (hopefully that solves the problem), and I have also commented on your review - I updated all the links. As to the "news article feel" of the entry, see my response on the DYK page. Frank0051 (talk)
Belated congratulations are in order, as you are among the select band of Wikipedians who have created or expanded fifty articles featured in the "Did you know?" section of the Main page, achieving this in only three months between May and August 2011. Focussing on Indonesian subjects, your wide-ranging contributions have also included such titles as Taaffeite and Women in Madagascar. Many congratulations, again! Moonraker (talk) 07:24, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
I got a bit confused because a reliable source that I used only talks about the potato meal aspect while a Google book reference shows that both locations serve (served in the case of the Las Vegas one) sandwiches, salads, and potatoes. I will fix the article and choose a different hook. SL93 (talk) 22:45, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

DYK
Hi Crisco! I recently got a hook reviewed at DYK (T:TDYK/David Hoberman). But, the reviewing admin forgot to list the hook at the prep area, and since I cannot promote my own hook, I would be much obliged if you comply. Thanks and regards, Avenue X at Cicero (talk) 16:06, 25 September 2011 (UTC).
Hi Cicero, I've taken a look and the nomination is still live. The reviewer is not required to promote the hook immediately (and generally shouldn't). Although it could be promoted, if I remember correctly the preps are full-up at the moment. Just be patient. Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:12, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Oops...I have always had hooks being reviewed by good editors like you, who immediately promote hooks reviewed. Anyways, thanks. Regards, Avenue X at Cicero (talk) 16:17, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi, is it good to go now.--Commander(Ping Me) 13:30, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
I was confused since it's been a long time after you marked and it has not yet moved to the Prep area. Thanks! --Commander(Ping Me) 13:42, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
Hello Crisco, thanks for having reviewed the DYK nom of at Template:Did you know nominations/John Palocaren. I've responded to the issue you raised. I'm not sure what should happen next. Many thanks -- Presearch (talk) 15:30, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
X
Regarding Template:Did you know nominations/X (The X-Files), I'm probably the wrong person to ask. I generally have a dim view of hooks that are made "interesting" by means of obscure or deceptive wording. I prefer to write hooks that are relatively straightforward. For that article, I might write something like:
... that in 2009 Entertainment Weekly listed X as one of 20 "black sci-fi icons"?
That's still a bit mysterious, but it gives the reader some context. --Orlady (talk) 02:02, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Ebony Bones
Regarding artist Ebony Bones. We request you refrain from adding incorrect photos of which are not her. Thank you for reading and hope you're happy with life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krugkris (talk • contribs) 05:47, 28 September 2011 (UTC) We can confirm this as her record label and ask you refrain from any further changes. We also ask you keep in mind not all females of color look the same. And yes we have full ownership of this photo. However what is unclear is your stalker like obsession for an artist you clearly fail to even recognize.
