Frogs Image[edit]

Hi Phlip - it looks like it was User:Interested2 that took your picture out on The Frogs, not the other translator. I think it's awesome you made a comic out of this play, but I think a lot of people are going to try to remove your image from the page simply due to the (unjustified) lack of respect that comics get. My personal feeling on the matter is a that we should try to get a piece of art from the time period the play was produced whenever possible, but failing that - use whatever art that best illustrates it. I've scoured the net for a good image for the Frogs several months ago, and came up with no good free ones. So the comic one is fine with me, but like I said - I wouldn't be too suprised if people keep removing it. - Ravenous 20:00, 30 August 2006 (UTC).[reply]

If I were using the Wiki to compete (like some other people I could mention), I would point out that the scene where Dionysus accosts a corpse is extra sick from the corpse's point of view.

However, I'm now actually reading a book on the topic (printed on paper! from a library!) and it contradicts a lot of our verbiage on Aristophanes. So I will relax even more about trying to fix things. ;-)

BTW I noticed your intra-wiki email while reading Executive_car. At the time, the page said, "EuroNCAP, a European organization founded to train cheese to become evil", so credit another win to the vandals!

++The only problem with the file is I can't find a button to switch it to copyleft. The automatic reprimanding messages imply I forgot (the second time my browser allowed me near the page) to switch it to "my image, pure copyleft", like I did before. I'm only 46, with a 25 year resume as a computer scientist, so please go easy on me with these user interface details!++

++And now, because someone keeps breaking the "three revert rule", the system accuses me of breaking it. Sheesh - delete once restore once!++

Please read WP:COI and WP:3RR and do not restore your own cartoon which shows you have a conflict of interest to keep in the article. Instead you can engage in intelligent conversation at the article talk to try and persuade other editors why your cartoon can stay in the article. Thank you.

++disregard previous snark. C-: someone added the cartoon in question to the cites, which is also appropriate.++

(image license issue fixed)

A tag has been placed on Blink (magic), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

File copyright problem with File:ZeekLand0296.png[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:ZeekLand0296.png. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

November 2011[edit]

Your recent editing history at The Frogs shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.
