Blocking of "Mrbowtie"

Hi, please do not assume that my challenge of your block of my IP on Wiktionary is a clever ploy by a vandal. I haven't actually used that account since June, as I only really edit Wikipedia, which, admittedly, I do not do to any great extent. However, when I attempted to edit an article today I discovered it to be blocked. Please assume good faith. Mrbowtie 16:05, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

• Also, upon closer inspection, I discover myself to be in the same predicament as Wolfdog. Mrbowtie 16:08, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
  • It in fact seems that you have, to some extent, targeted users who share the same ISP [that being Tiscali UK] as a certain "Wonderfool" against whom you appear to have a vendetta. Honourable as it may be, your fight against vandalism should try to avoid too many civilians caught in the crossfire, so to speak. Mrbowtie 00:52, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Image:Barbara Follett.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Barbara Follett.gif. 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 {{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. 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. Chowbok ☠ 04:51, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you Knaggs...

Codes and Great Ordinances

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Codes and Great Ordinances, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

CAEDS

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article CAEDS, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of Family History Society

Family History Society, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that Family History Society satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Family History Society and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of Family History Society during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. ^demon^{[omg plz]} 18:39, 25 October 2007 (UTC) 18:39, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
