salary and net worth stuff[edit]

  • This list shows all the people about whom we have an Infobox_Celebrity. I did not check all of them, but in checking a subset of 10, I found no one other than me personally about whom we would have the kind of unsourced non-information you posted about me. I question the wisdom and validity of this.--Jimbo Wales 21:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oh. I had read elsewhere that you aren't actively involved in pages/articles about you on Wikipedia anymore. Oh well. At any rate, I was modeling it after articles like Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, etc. From reading the talk page it looks like other editors are curious as well.

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Chris Diamantopoulos.jpg)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Chris Diamantopoulos.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. Quentin X 20:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Title change[edit]

Request for change in consensus: Change title to "Franklin Coverup Incident"

"A small group of editors can reach a consensual decision, but when the article gains wider attention, others may then disagree. The original group should not block further change on grounds that they already have made a decision. No one person, and no (limited) group of people, can unilaterally declare that community consensus has changed, or that it is fixed and determined."

The existing title is, in the opinion of many who have commented (Gyrofrog, Awfultin, Wayne, Tom1976, Conexion, Apostle 12), fatally biased. To start out saying that the subject material is a "hoax" is indefensible, especially when that point of view is hardly universal. A specially called county grand jury used the word "hoax;" that is all. And there is ample reason to believe that those who comprised the jury had a vested interest in protecting local people.

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

Thanks for uploading Image:Christianclemenson.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) 21:09, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
