Your message at Talk:Other Rangers and Ranger-like Allies[edit]

I'm not exactly sure as to how I should take that.

And a very simple decision solves 90% off all discussions here. Congratulations again, Ryulong.

Thank you. And I apologize, it's just hard to discern such things over the internet. Ryūlóng 05:03, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:WesBattlizer.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:WesBattlizer.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. 02:02, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Micah Sanders[edit]

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! --Madchester 19:18, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia did not provide specific references or sources. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. Editors may choose to remove material you have contributed if it is not verifiable. Please provide specific references in your contributions to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content. You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! Could I suggest that mundane editorial disagreements are most likely to resolve quickly and productively when editors observe the following:

Remain polite per WP:Civility.
Solicit feedback and ask questions.
Keep the discussion focused. Concentrate on a small set of related matters and resolve them to the satisfaction of all parties.
Focus on the subject rather than on the personalities of the editors.

Thanks! --Madchester 02:56, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nov 9[edit]

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --Madchester 03:08, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please read up on Wikipedia policy before making false nominations, based on previous incivil behaviour and comments. See edit "Daring" or threatening other editors is not the way to go here. Again, please read up on WP:NOR and WP:RS before making any further edits based on personal interpetation/theory, and not descriptive fact.

And FYI, I am an administrator. I saw the article being littered with personal conjecture on that particular scene, and they had to be removed per Wikipedia's "No original research" provisions. --Madchester 03:40, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You keep making edits that violate WP:NOR, namely personal interpretations of a primary source. Talk page warnings templates do not constitute harassment, when they are used to tell editors about their problematic edits. --Madchester 04:00, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Again, according to WP:NOR,

Any interpretation of primary source material requires a secondary source.

If you want to make the claim that technopathy was involved, then it needs to be supported by a secondary source, other that the actual television show. Unless, Micah or another character explictly states that the power is technopathy or technology-based on the actual program, such a claim cannot be made in according with the original research policy. If this was a fansite or messageboard, such speculation is fine, but it is not allowed on Wikipedia.

And please assume good faith in the edits of other contributors. Making faulty 3RR nominations when WP:NOR was being violated is not cool. I want the article to be accurate and that's only possible w/o the speculative writing present.

Cheers, --Madchester 04:28, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:WesBattlizer.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:WesBattlizer.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.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 06:58, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your user name[edit]

I believe it is now Wikipedia policy that user names should not have "bot" in them, as it implies that the user is an automated bot. I see that you've been registered here since 2006, so it may not have been a policy back then, but if you plan to continue editing on the site, it might be a good idea to go to WP:CHU and ask for a change of user name.
