Einstein quote

[edit]

Cutler, you appear to be responsible for the extension of the article on Felix Ehrenhaft. There's a quote by Einstein, which I find interesting. Unfortunately, it's not references. Can you add it? Many thanks in advance! --Suspekt (talk) 21:31, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fine by me

[edit]

Your "weird" article works for me and there are a lot of legal pages that are useful and this would be a nice example for DYK. The link to Matisse gives a nice hook (and illustration!). Tell you what is odd, I wrote Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations yesterday. It needs a co-author to take it to 2,000 words ... any interest? Victuallers (talk) 15:20, 6 March 2008 (UTC) ...o yours is now nominated. Not sure the picture can remain in your article under fair use ... it could be argued that the "true owner" is very likely to object to any showing of this image.

UK Legislation Infobox

[edit]

Just to let you know, I have folded the two UK legislation infoboxes together. I have taken the code from your version and made three tweaks. The IF statements that you had used for three of the rows at the bottom of the table have been altered so that if there is not text for those parameters the rows do not appear in the table at all. It is simply a cosmetic change to make the table appear more neat when nothing has been entered into those three rows. I have altered all of the links to the version that you created to the other version of the template, simply because its capitalisation is more consistent and more articles use it. I will add the table of links to legislation to the bottom of those articles which do not have it. David Newton (talk) 22:23, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DYK

[edit]
Updated DYK query On 10 March, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations, 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.

- no idea why this wasn't awarded by "central" DYK people ... but I saw it and "doesn't do" to moan at volunteers - we do our best. Victuallers (talk) 16:14, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updated DYK query On 11 March, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007, which you created or substantially expanded.

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:AJTC logo.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 16:04, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

sup vs. small

[edit]

At the time I used the <sup> tag rather than the <small> tag I did not have any particular reason for doing so. However, after having looked at the results of the two I think that the superscript tag is the superior one to use. The whole point of shrinking the text is to save space. Both of the tags create text that is the same size. However the superscript text has less white space between the lines and thus takes it considerably less vertical screen real estate.

Infobox UK legislation

You appear to have created a duplicate of {{Infobox UK Legislation}} at {{Infobox UK legislation}}. Is there any particular reason for this? Road Wizard (talk) 13:52, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I see from an earlier topic above that David Newton merged the code from the l box into the L box. I assume therefore that the l template can be made into a redirect. Let me know if you have any problem with this. Road Wizard (talk) 13:57, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Sir Sidney Rowlatt.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Sir Sidney Rowlatt.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:10, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Cutler, Thankyou for pointing that out. There were some serious confusions in what I had put in, and I can't explain how I did that unless I was very tired and my mind was playing tricks with me. I apologise for a false trail.

Proposed deletion of Christian Evidence Society

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Christian Evidence Society, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Unsourced stub on obscure 19th century creationist group. Has been in existence for over 3 years without any substantive content being added.

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, 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.

Hi Cutler, and happy new year. I just wanted to say, I've moved my article style to OSCOLA, because it appears that the House of Lords has too, and most (good?) journals are doing this now. I was just wondering if you'd do the same, so we're consistent on the English law cases? It basically means doing "v" instead of "v.", which saves quite a lot of keystrokes over a lifetime!

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:William Fairbairn.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media 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 image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image 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 image'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. Images 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. Skier Dude (talk) 06:49, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Crownest has expressed interest in reviving this. Since you were a member of the FD project (now converted into a taskforce), I'm wondering if you'd be a part of the Taskforce.

Hello Cutler! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 298 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Ben Greene, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

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.

MSU Interview

[edit]

Dear Cutler,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:

  • Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
  • Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
  • All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
  • All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
  • The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

[edit]

Information icon Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Ben Black (composer) moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Ben Black (composer), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Ben Black (composer), a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:25, 25 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Ben Black (composer)

[edit]

Hello, Cutler. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ben Black".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

The article Viscosity (imaging software) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) requirement.

If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus.
