Orphaned non-free image (File:Gummi Lego.png)[edit]

You've uploaded File:Gummi Lego.png, and indicated that it's used under Wikipedia's rules for non-free images. However, it's not presently used in any articles. Wikipedia policy requires that non-free images be either used or deleted, so if this image isn't used in an article in the next week, it will be deleted.

This is an automated notice by FairuseBot. For assistance on the image use policy, see Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:12, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hellfighters (film)[edit]

Hi Rfc. I noticed that you added material to the above article. Thanks for your edits, but what does "t/c" mean? Also, this insertion, "(He has a notorious reputation for using fires to pick up women, and generally any woman he takes to a fire he ends up (implicitly) having sex with her; in the case of Buckman's daughter, he apparently didn't take advantage of her but instead they got married.) " While this is a plot summary, and there is no real source for it, are you sure that this is true? I haven't seen the movie in a while but I don't remember this part of the plot. If it was there, no problem, I just want to check. Thanks, Dabomb87 (talk) 05:28, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And in response I would say: (1) As to plot summary:

I'm not sure what the exact rules are, but since plot summaries are generally not published elsewhere they would, to some extent, have to be exempt from the "no original research" rule, e.g. someone writing a plot summary of a movie by definition would be including something which is either exclusive to Wikipedia or not available many other places. As for the plot summary, I've watched the movie many, many times and know it quite well.

(2) as to the notation t/c:

I have a habit of inserting entries in shorthand. "T/C" is shorthand for "Technical Correction", what it basically means is one of two things (1) someone else saved something missing a minor point, they misspelled a word, left off a semicolon or otherwise left some minor and otherwise trivial error that I have corrected; (2) (the more usual case, especially if the t/c change occurs right after a prior change) I screwed up and saved a rewrite without checking it because I thought it was okay, then discovered after I saved it that I misspelled a word and I had to go in, edit it, and resave it to make a correction that I shouldn't have made in the first place, and had I examined the edit before saving it I would have caught the error. Those are the usual reasons for a T/C change, e.g. a technical correction for a minor speling; punctuation: grammer or other similar minor ereor. :) Paul Robinson (Rfc1394) (talk) 05:19, 18 January 2009

Thanks. I really didn't doubt that your edits were right, just wanted to double check. Thanks for the thorough explanation; you probably do know the movie much better than me. I didn't think it was near John Wayne's best :/ Dabomb87 (talk) 05:35, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Generally I don't take reasonable questions about why I wrote something personally; in one case, someone who had serious involvement in an issue asked me about an article I wrote, where he had no idea about the subject. I checked and was unable to verify the item, so I've asked for it to be removed. Someone checking on something allowed me to remove crap and make the encyclopedia more useful. Most of us do understand that we all want a quality product, and I take questions asked in a civil tone in that fashion.

I don't know if it was John Wayne's best performance, however I do think the movie was far, far better than the critics savaged it, however. It personally is one of my three favorite films, having been knocked from number two favorite (after The Andromeda Strain) to number three (after Starship Troopers knocked Andromeda Strain to number two. Or it might be number four, I also like The Medusa Touch a lot and it could possibly be third or a tie with this one. (And I think Richard Burton's performance in that film shows how much he wasted his talents as an actor.) Paul Robinson (Rfc1394) (talk) 20:07, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of C-6 (explosive)[edit]

I have nominated C-6 (explosive), an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/C-6 (explosive). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

File:Triangle VA.gif listed for deletion[edit]

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Triangle VA.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of Cool "Disco" Dan[edit]

A tag has been placed on Cool "Disco" Dan requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Male Restroom Etiquette[edit]

Hi. I've nominated Male Restroom Etiquette, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. — TKD::{talk} 05:32, 21 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Male Restroom Etiquette[edit]

On March 26, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Male Restroom Etiquette, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

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).

Area code maps[edit]

Hi, I noticed that you created many area code maps for the New York. However, this is a mistake in all of them. The mistake is in the inset image on the bottom left. You have 516 Nassau County (NC) pointing to 631 Suffolk County (SC). The county directly to the west of SC is NC. For example in Image:Area code 917.png, only the 2 leftmost counties (Brooklyn and Queens) should be colored red, leaving the county directly above the 917 indicator (NC) to be blue. The main image is fine, as 516 and 631 point to their correct counties. --Zimbabweed (talk) 03:59, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Noticed something similar on all of the (otherwise excellent) NY state area code maps. On the enlarged inset showing NYC and surrounding areas, all have the line from 516 pointing to Suffolk County. Also, Image:Area code 347.png needs the same correction as 917. I'll take a stab at it.oknazevad (talk) 17:48, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Further proving that I don't do anything useful at work, I just went through all of the NYS maps and corrected the line pointing out 516 in the inset for all of the maps.oknazevad (talk) 18:27, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File:Death_penalty_statutes_in_the_United_States.svg[edit]

You have made a change on 04 May 2009 on the map about death penalty statutes in the United States.

I can't make change on this map.

In this map, Massachussetts is blue, which means it doesn't had a death penalty statute.

But it's false. Massachussetts had a death penalty statute who was found unconstitutionnal in 1984.

Can you change this map and feature Massachussetts with the same color as the state of New-York ?

Also New-Mexico is blue but it had executed performed one execution since 1976 and the abolition of the death penalty in this state is not retroactive.

Can you change this map and feature New-Mexico with both blue and red color (as New-York who are both in orange and green) ?

Can you also make the file without state names the same.

File permission problem with File:Arlington_VA_200x440.jpg[edit]

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Arlington_VA_200x440.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 GFDL 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-en@wikimedia.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 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-en@wikimedia.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:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MBisanz ^talk 00:52, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Volunteer opportunity in Bethesda, Thursday, July 16[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation will be conducting an all-day Academy at the National Institutes of Health, in Bethesda, Maryland, on Thursday, July 16. The team that will be teaching at the Academy, a mix of paid staff and volunteers, is looking for four more volunteers to be teaching assistants, providing one-to-one assistance in workshops whenever a workshop participant has a problem following the instructional directions. (We currently have two editors signed up as teaching assistants, and are looking for a total of six.)

The NIH editing workshops are only for two hours, but volunteers are asked to meet the Wikimedia Foundation team at the hotel in Bethesda at about 7:15 a.m. (time to be finalized shortly) and to stay for the entire day, which ends at 4:30 p.m. Lunch will be provided. (The full schedule can be found here.)

The team is not necessarily looking for expert editors (though they are welcome), just people who can help novices who might get stuck when trying to do some basic things. If you've been an editor for at least 3 months, and have done at least 500 edits, you probably qualify.

If you're interested, please send John Broughton an email. If you might be interested, but would like further information, please post a note on his user talk page, so that he can respond there, and others can see what was asked.

File:Cumberland MD 760x350.jpg missing description details[edit]

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as File:Cumberland MD 760x350.jpg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers.

If the information is not provided, the image may eventually be proposed for deletion, a situation which is not desirable, and which can easily be avoided.

If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:00, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

If it's a free image, it would be better hosted on Wikimedia Commons :)

Could you please consider changing the image information which appears to currently limit it to Wikipedia, despite the 'free' licence? Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:34, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Corporation[edit]

Two problems: (1) The section contains no sources whatsoever. (WP:RS) As such, it reads like original research. (2) It is not written from neutral point of view. (WP:NPOV) Both are Wikipedia founding principles. Please be careful not to restore the section again without major correction. Dynablaster (talk) 23:21, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Area Code Box templates (see [[Category:Area code templates)

I created Template:Area Code Box 0/doc because it is much more simplifying to edit without distracting {{Area Code Box 0}}. As for others, they are too tough to handle because of {{Area Code Box Help}}. {{Infobox area code}} needs {{documentation}} because the page looks distracting. I think there must be some help; see {{Article issues}} and figure out why. --Gh87 (talk) 00:27, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Lists of U.S. county name etymologies[edit]

After this AfD, I nominated this template you created back in 2007 - {{Lists of U.S. county name etymologies}} - for deletion. All of the non-redundant etymology information in the articles has been merged with their respective articles in {{U.S. Counties}} and the etymology articles have been redirected. If you have anything to add to the debate, you can do so here. Thanks. JUJUTACULAR | (TALK) 15:21, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:The Cyrkle.png[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:The Cyrkle.png. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
