Orphaned fair use image (Image:Daniel terdiman 150.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Daniel terdiman 150.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. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Can I ask why you created this page? It is dangerously close to violating this guideline. Please reply on my own talk page. J Milburn 12:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Per your request, I have replied on your talk page at User talk:J Milburn#Simple_page.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 13:16, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

Regariding your message on my talk page:

  1. Please do not leave me boilerplate templates on Wikipedia policy. I've been here a while and made a few contributions and I know our policies pretty well.
  2. With regard to censorship - "Wikipedia is not censored" is a notice to readers that they may find things here that might offend them. It is not an obligation forced on us to include things into articles. We can take out whatever we want.
  3. Your message is not very specific. I haven't editted that article in quite some time. Instead of a boilerplate template, perhaps you could provide a diff of an edit of the specific edit that brought you to my talk page.

Thanks, Johntex\talk 15:40, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, the diff is here.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 22:16, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay in relying; I've been on a mini-Wikibreak due to issues at work and related problems. I hadn't noticed TV Acres being particularly noxious, but if you see a better link, that would probably be better than adding a disclaimer. I also noticed that lots and lots of web pages (some news, some blogs) still cite the quote in passing, but offhand couldn't see any useful way to mention this. The intent was mostly to find an online definition that wasn't too woolly or rude. Also (and I haven't looked again and may be misremembering), that TV Acres page had extremely similar text to the Wikipedia article about the character before I edited the latter away from it. I don't remember offhand that I've ever looked at that site before, so I don't have any experience from which to advise you. Sorry! Regards... Karen | Talk | contribs 00:10, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
