Hello Royalguard11. I see you did the last archive at WP:RFPP. VoABot has not been active lately. User:VoiceOfAll has just resumed editing, but he has not responded to queries about the dead bot. Is it time to advertise for creation of a new bot, through Wikipedia:Bot requests? Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 17:49, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

No action needed, the VoABot has risen from slumber. EdJohnston (talk) 20:41, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank You

Dear Royalguard11,

Thanks for reverting the vandalism on my userpage.

I am always rollbacking vandalism, and I didn't even notice it on my own userpage!

Once again thanks

I've moved your wonderful picture of Taylor Field to Commons

Thank you so much for your great-looking, high-quality picture of Mosaic Stadium at Taylor Field. I've just transfered it to Wikimedia Commons, where it is (for now) the only image of the stadium, and is thus very important to the project. You can see it here. I've requested that the local file here on Wikipedia be deleted, but the transfered picture has the exact same name so there shouldn't be any visible change or problems. If there is a problem, please contact me and I'll do my best to fix it. Again, thanks for your excellent photograph! TFCforever (talk) 17:59, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Pre-emptive indefinite semi-protection of John Laws

Hello,

I would like to draw your attention to a case of pre-emptive indefinite semi-protection that I find unjustified.

The protecting admin has been challenged about it. Only after the issue was reported to WP:RUP did the admin come up with something resembling an explanation, which was accepted by the investigating admin. The justification was in my opinion extremely flimsly: "there has been in the last varying degrees of speculation in tabloid press and elsewhere".

As you may remember, pre-emptive semi-protections were recently rejected (scroll down) due to an evident lack of consensus. Not only that, but this justification falls even short of that proposal, since it's not clear to me how unreferenced "speculation in tabloid press and elsewhere" is a "high-profile event that has a history of drawing vandalism".

I would appreciate your views on the matter on the protecting admin's talk page. Thank you. 114.148.236.155 (talk) 18:25, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Please ignore the above request, since I was informed that this is WP:CANVASSing and it is frowned upon. I have opened a discussion at WP:AN#Pre-emptive indefinite semi-protection of John Laws. 123.225.192.66 (talk) 21:52, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

FYI

You recently participated in a discussion here. This issue has been raised again here, where you may wish to comment. Best regards, –xenotalk 15:26, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

Fun

Hi Royalguard11. I noticed your comment here. The work you've done with protection and protection policy over the years has been a credit to the encyclopaedia. Good luck with whatever you're doing now. -- zzuuzz (talk) 14:14, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

Ditto that. Thanks for all your work here. I was going to say that "less than 50 times since the beginning of 2009" still sounds like you have a use for the tools, but of course it's your prerogative. Best of luck. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 22:41, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

I have nominated David Marit, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/David Marit. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Cat-five - talk 00:51, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Spcbmo.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Spcbmo.png. 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 'file' 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 "File" 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. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:00, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Notice of change

Hello. You are receiving this message because of a recent change to the administrator policy that alters what you were told at the time of your desysopping. The effect of the change is that if you are inactive for a continuous three year period, you will be unable to request return of the administrative user right. This includes inactive time prior to your desysopping if you were desysopped for inactivity and inactive time prior to the change in policy. Inactivity is defined as the absence of edits or logged actions. Until such time as you have been inactive for three years, you may request return of the tools at the bureaucrats' noticeboard. After you have been inactive for three years, you may seek return of the tools only through WP:RFA. Thank you. MBisanz talk 00:20, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Userbox POTY 2006

Hi, Royalguard11. This is a courtesy note to let you know about an edit I made in your userspace. Since you are advertised as semi-retired, I figured you wouldn't mind. I think the new link makes it easier to understand the point of the userbox – but do let me know if you're not pleased! Cheers, – Wdchk (talk) 01:11, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited St. Joseph Seminary (Edmonton), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Albert (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Non-free rationale for File:Nfl-NC-open.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Nfl-NC-open.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 01:28, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
