Tom pictures[edit]

The pictures are, as tdh says, exactly identical (same res, same format). Unless you can prove differently? Will 16:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Still, it's CSD I1 Will 14:01, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fire + Water[edit]

You never explained why you needed to upload a new version rather then uploading over the old one, I reverted yours because it is crap and has no fair use rationale. Thanks! Matthew 08:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Lost_Title_Card.gif[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Lost_Title_Card.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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. 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 specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 03:02, 20 April 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — pd_THOR ^{| =/\=} | 03:02, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The image looks identical to the opening title of the show LOST. Isn't that what it is? If so, it's not public domain. --Minderbinder 13:25, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright problems with Image:Lost Title Card.gif[edit]

An image that you uploaded, Image:Lost Title Card.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Minderbinder 15:37, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reply[edit]

Why? There is a redirect from $pringfield and the title isn't THAT long. The way we do things with Simpsons episodes is go by what the official title is, not by which is the most convenient. -- Scorpion 16:43, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your point? Just because others do it doesn't mean we should go against policy. There is a redirect from $pringfield. That's enough. -- Scorpion.

Fair use rationale for Image:EricHarris-DylanKlebold.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:EricHarris-DylanKlebold.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Ban notice?[edit]

Hello. It has come to my attention that you made this edit on the 27th of this month. Now, I don't think a lot of explanation needs to go into how you should not A) impersonate somebody with sysop rights and B) sign as another user. Both instances qualify as disruptive behavior, and, if repeated, will warrant you a block. I am assuming good faith, reasoning that maybe you had a fair reason to do that, but please do not do it again. If you ever require the intervention of an administrator, there are over a thousand active ones who can help you. --Sn0wflake 16:54, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see... that explains a lot. Well, I personally don't see any harm in some wiki humor, but other admins might think differently, so I would suggest a bit of caution from now on. Signing as (or the blanket term used in the Wikipedia rules: "impersonating") another user is, after all, a blockable offense. Of course, each case needs to be analyzed individually, and this one is certainly of a harmless nature, but nevertheless, a fair complaint has been made by LeonSword, so I will have to ask for you to not repeat that joke. Just wiki policy. Feel free to address any further enquiries to me. Regards, --Sn0wflake 01:30, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Heaven's gate[edit]

The way it was you did it. Heaven's Gate (cult) was redirected to Heaven's Gate which has a link to Heaven's Gate (cult) which you just redirected. Nice circle there. :) If you want to do a move but can't because something has to be written over, please request a move at Wikipedia:Requested moves. For GFDL reasons, don't copy & paste a move. Garion96 (talk) 05:38, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See Heaven's Gate and Heaven’s Gate, different accent. Easy mistake to make. I deleted your copy & paste article. Garion96 (talk) 05:48, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Beats me. At least the one which is still there seems to be the correct accent. Garion96 (talk) 05:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Then...[edit]

That's for both of you to solve, no? Enter in direct contact with him. --Sn0wflake 05:43, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Archive[edit]

WP:ARCHIVE says "the first archive of User talk:Example user would be named User talk:Example user/Archive 1". But users can use any subpage naming system they like, I guess, because that's not policy or anything, just a recommendation. --Geniac 12:10, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User talk page deletions[edit]

I deleted text from my user talk page. You reverted my deletions. You said "You cannot delete other peoples messages". Please note the Wikipedia provision that states "Policy does not prohibit users from removing comments from their own talk pages". (WP:USER#Removal of warnings) WWGB 14:38, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

May 2007[edit]

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices, as you did with Appolyon. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. —Ocatecir ^Talk 08:13, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Edit counters[edit]

See WP:COUNT. I use Interiot's Wannabe Kate. --Geniac 12:29, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Lost Title Card.gif[edit]

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Lost Title Card.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

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. Pagra shtak 18:00, 10 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Paulo (Lost)[edit]

Hey, you constantly edit pages within the Lost Wikiproject and I was hoping that I could have your opinion on my nomination for Paulo (Lost). Thanks, thedemonhog talk • edits • count 17:29, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletes[edit]

Regarding the DHARMA station articles: Although it's pretty much a given that those articles should be deleted, they have to pass one of the parts of WP:CSD to be speedy-deleted. I've redirected them for now, and if it gets reverted we can just take it to AfD. -- Ned Scott 09:10, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:EricHarris-DylanKlebold.jpg[edit]

I think the source of this image should go in its caption in the Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold article, and the image page itself while you're at it, assuming you know it. --zenohockey 03:16, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(Re your message on my talk page) That's fine. Thanks. --zenohockey 02:19, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Lost Title Card.gif)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Lost Title Card.gif. 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 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 11:08, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image tagging for Image:Lost-3x22-Pryce.jpg[edit]

If you don't indicate the source and creator of the image on the image's description page, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided source information for them as well.

Fair use rationale for Image:Dying to say this to you.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Dying to say this to you.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:17, 3 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
