Alexis Thorpe

[edit]

What is the source of that picture? It needs a tag, like whether it is fair use, etc. Also, James E. Reilly didn't create the Gemini twins. He didn't come back to the show until mid-2003...so all he did to Cassie DiMera was "kill" her. Mike H 12:49, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)

Alexis Thorpe Photo

[edit]

(Actually, that came from http://www.tvtome.com. Type "Alexis Thorpe" into the search box, and click "Gallery" when you get to the biography section. I hope that clears things up...)

Possibly unfree Image:Stephen Dorff.gif

[edit]
An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Stephen Dorff.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. Please go to its page for more information if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Warning sign
This image may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law. We need you to specify two things on the image description page:

  • The copyright holder, and
  • The copyright status

The copyright holder is usually the creator. If the creator was paid to make this image, then their employer may be the copyright holder. If several people collaborated, then there may be more than one copyright holder. If you created this image, then you are the copyright holder.

Because of the large number of images on Wikipedia, we've sorted them using image copyright tags. Just find the right tag corresponding to the copyright status of this image, and paste it onto the image description page like this: {{TAGHERE}}.

There are 3 basic ways to licence an image on Wikipedia:

  • The copyright holder can also release their work into the public domain. See here for examples.
  • Images from certain sources are automatically released into the public domain. This is true for the United States, where the Wikimedia servers are located. (See here for images from the government of the USA and here for other governments.) However, not all governments release their work into the public domain. One exception is the UK (see here for images from the UK government). Non-free licence governments are listed here.
  • Also, in some cases, an image is copyrighted but allowed on Wikipedia because of fair use. To see a) if this image qualifies, and b) if so, how to tag it, see Wikipedia:Fair use.

For more information, see Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. Please remember that untagged images are likely to be deleted.

If you have uploaded other images without including copyright tags, please go back and tag them. Also, please tag all images that you upload in the future.

If you have any questions, just leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again. --Admrboltz (T | C) 00:30, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Its close enough for me, please license it as you are the copyright holder. --Admrboltz (T | C) 18:05, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image Tagging for Image:Alexis.JPG

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Alexis.JPG. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as {{db-unksource}}.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Shannyn Sossamon?

[edit]

I saw your recent edit on the Law & Order: SVU article and I agree with you---this absurd habit of highlighting a name multiple times in an article really gets out of control. But, I'm not sure I quite understand your Shannyn Sossamon reference. Can you enlighten me? ---Charles 05:21, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, in case you did not see my response on my talk page, I want you to know that I appreciate the sense of humor, and hope you maintain it. Wikipedia can get frustrating, but humor sure helps. Keep up the good work. ---Charles 05:53, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Price Is Right

[edit]

Since Steve is a bit of a polarizing figure lately, I'll ask the question. What good does wikifying a year really add to the encyclopedia? Do you really expect someone's going to be reading an article and say "Hmmm... 1974? What is that? Why isn't there a link?"

I'm not trying to cause trouble, mind you. I'm just curious as to why this is something that certain members feel needs to be done. Lambertman 18:49, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you've had plenty of time to write... well... whatever that is on your userpage, but you couldn't answer me, so I'll assume that you don't even think it's worthwhile to wikify dates? Lambertman 21:52, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I tried putting a request for semi-protection at WP:RFP but they turned it down. Guess it's up to editors to revert the article till the vandals get tired. Dismas|(talk) 01:32, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

[edit]

I would like to compliment you for having the most comprehensive edit summaries I've ever seen. However, I still don't understand most of them. --Liface 17:43, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandals

[edit]

Even if they are vandals, you should not call them names (even @$#). I know how you feel but aside being against WP:NPA, some vandals like the attention and it makes things worse. I agree the IP should be blocked, nonetheless. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 16:48, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I found your comments hard to follow (I think I'm too old :o)). Maybe it is just someone annoyed with you for any reason or just a random vandal. The IP has been blocked for 48 hours, so you should get some peace. Regards, E Asterion u talking to me? 17:40, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I reported the new vandal. This should be blocked soon too. --E Asterion u talking to me? 20:18, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism to English law

[edit]

I've only just recently started taking active steps against vandals. Don't know much about either of your media references but thought I'd reply out of courtesy. There were no racial slurs: just swearing.--Lucifer 16:58, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

[edit]

I semi-protected your userpage due to all the vandalism it was getting. I can remove the offensive edits from the history if you want me to, but that's a bit of a hassle. -- Steel 15:51, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now your talk page is protected too. This often prevents legitimate users contacting you, so is only temporary. -- Steel 16:27, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi WTGDMan1986. You may have noticed I deleted commons:Image:WTGDMan1986.jpg. Prestige Portraits retains the copyright to the photos they take, and even though you are the subject of the photo, you cannot claim any rights to the image. Also, it is extremely likely that Prestige Portraits had a clause specifying stating that proofs may not be reproduced or distributed.

I've deleted the image here on Wikipedia because its use would be limited to your user page, and fair use images are not allowed on user pages. Remeber that images can be undeleted, but also realize that you'd have to make a very strong argument to have it restored. Thanks. ~MDD4696 16:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for deleting it. I think this was the reason why my Userpage was vandalized by Korean vandals using racist attacks. I mean, what the HECK are "flying d***s"? --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 17:54, 14 September 2006 (UTC) 17:05, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to jump in, but it's a shame about the racist attacks. I've received some of them myself, being a Chinese Canadian, so I can sympathize here... -→Buchanan-Hermit/?! 17:07, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I would appreciate it if you kept your comments on Talk:Dawson College shooting on topic – that is, discussing improvements to the article. In my not so humble opinion, your attempts at humour are rather inappropriate. Thanks. --Qviri (talk) 18:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the vandalism revert

[edit]

Thanks for helping revert the vandalism to my user page - much appreciated. Gwernol 17:02, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reporting vandalism

[edit]

Thanks for the vandalism reports, but please don't go to WP:AIV unless the vandalism issue is serious for that IP. Go through the warnings as appropriate, and only if the vandal keeps on doing it, should he/she be reported. Thanks. --Nlu (talk) 17:08, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reporting vandals to WP:AIV

[edit]

Hey there, fellow vandalism fighter. When you report a vandal to the Admin intervention against vandalism, they should have been issued a final warning, have vandalized after receiving that warning, and still be at it. Otherwise, I suspect the page would get clogged with random one off school boy vandals, or genuinely confused new users and real, persistent vandals would not get blocked as efficiently. Cheers Dina 17:12, 15 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

69.27.252.245

[edit]

Thanks for your message. I don't recall racial attacks by the "bored school boy", just nonsense comments about whatever teacher he had that period and fellow students, etc. He did use the word "retarded" in one edit. HGB 17:06, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Racial Vandalism

[edit]
I don't get it. What's the link between korean people, racial attacks and "flying ****" vandalism? Raja Lon Flattery 17:24, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I was checking where the vandalism came from by clicking "WHOIS" for that IP. The vandalism came from someone from Korea. Then the instigators allegedly deleted stuff from my talk page and replaced it with words like "flying d****s" and racial slurs. I had to delete my picture from my Userpage because of that. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 20:49, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I understand that. I was wondering about the reason that drove the Koreans to such outbursts of vandalism. Raja Lon Flattery 09:02, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing that I'm African-American, they have made fun of my race, using a racial slur. (Asterion) blocked both IPs, and then one other vandal I didn't see took cues from the recent MOO vandal (by clicking WHOIS for that IP, the vandalism came from a computer from Reston, Virginia). He got blocked indefinitely. I think this was because I tried to revert their edits made to Steve Irwin and its Talkpage and tried to prevent them from making such edits by providing confusing edit summaries. So far I've been messaged twice about that (Liface couldn't understand most of my edit summaries, Theoldanarchist couldn't understand a reference I made to Shannyn Sossamon in an edit summary when I was editing Law & Order: SVU for bad grammar). I respect your concern, but I don't like it very much when people like that use demeaning racial slurs like n*****. Isn't that considered disorderly conduct? --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 12:12, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry. I do not tolerate these kinds of attacks either. The Koreans are hardly in position to use racial slurs. Raja Lon Flattery 19:57, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Now Argentinan and German vandals are following examples from the Korean vandals with the racial slurs. They were blocked as I saw their IP adresses. It seems every time I log in to check for messages, the vandalism disappears. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 18:55, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Talk pages

[edit]

I have removed your comments from Talk:Platte Canyon High School shooting and Talk:Duane R. Morrison. Those comments had absolutely nothing to do with the improvement and development of the article and were just your personal opinions on the shooter. Article talk pages are for discussing improvements of the article. Thanks, Metros232 15:22, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries?

[edit]

Can you please explain some of your recent edit summaries to article pages, such as: "SICK AND TIRED OF IT ALL: the McMahons and villains in real life, TV, and movies. I wish Jun Kazama would just kill them all. Add categories. THERE" or "Player 1 K.O.'ed Jun Kazama! D'oh! Announcer: Player 2 Defeated. (Added myself; can't stop laughing about D'oh! (*laughter ensues*))" or "In Keyes' honor, I have supplied the categories. I am now letting Jun Kazama beat the $#&% out of Vince and Shane McMahon for what Duane R. Morrison did. SO THERE" How are these even CLOSE to being appropriate edit summaries? Metros232 13:25, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Metros232, I was angry with the headlines at one point (Platte Canyon High School shooting, Dawson College shooting), and then couldn't stop laughing at certain running gags (D'oh!) I heard, and tried to use a creative way to explain my edit. I apologize if this offends you, but I'm just trying to express how I feel at the point of the edit summaries. I get creative whenever I delete a vandalistic edit as well, in case you didn't notice. --D.F. "Jun Kazama Master" Williams 14:45, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, but there's no award for "creative ways to explain an edit". Edit summaries are meant to state what the edit is and that's that. This isn't about your personal feelings on an issue. It's about the edit. To be completely honest, other editors don't often care what your feelings are, what your emotional state is, what your personal interests are, etc. We care about the encyclopedia and how your edit is affecting what we have in an article or a talk page. What do Vince and Shane McMahon, Duane R. Morrison, Emily Keyes, and Jun Kazama have to do with an addition of a category to an article? If you want to express your personal feelings, leave it to your user page (which I see you've already done much of). Metros232 14:56, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And I see you're still continuing this. Why can't you just say "reverting vandalism" instead of "Revert Alex Varkatzas and Matt Heafy following by 69.37.169.238 (Vandalism) to last version by Orz. Please do not use private parts." What do these singers have to do with the vandalism at ALL?? Also...why did you report that user for vandalism on WP:AIV if they only had ONE edit ever and you never warned them? Metros232 21:05, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, what in the heck do you need 4 edit summaries in a row that state "Add the father in "Blast". Still, pay no attention to the handsome young man Shawn Reaves entering the SVU set, mind you."?? This has NOTHING to do with your edits and EVERYTHING to do with your interests. Metros232 16:48, 12 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Personal attacks

[edit]

Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on the contributor; personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks may lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. This is in reference to your edit summary: REVERT Vandalism by a lunatic to last version by Lid. PLEASE do not refer to skate punk kids as rich kids on LSD. at this edit [1]. Also, please note that your revert was inappropriate. "Rich Kids on LSD" is the name of a band, it wasn't put in as a description of skater kids. Metros232 17:01, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Assume good faith

[edit]

You removed this comment as being vandalism. That was a message left on your talk page regarding an older message you left on user Asterion's talk page. I meant no malice whatsoever and your action was rude and disrespectful although it is your right to remove anything but warning on your talk page. However, you always tend to assume bad faith, as this was the case, and this will lead you only to conflicts. And you can get ride of those userboxes: "this user is polite" and "this user wants to be your friend" i saw on your userpage since, obviously, they do not mirror the real you. Ko Jumong 12:10, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


One more thing: with this attitude, no wonder people vandalize your page. Ko Jumong 16:13, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

[edit]
Welcome, WTGDMan1986/Archive 1 to WikiProject Colorado! We hope you can contribute to our ongoing effort to create, expand, organize, and improve Colorado-related articles to a feature-quality standard.

Some useful links:

What you can do:

  • Add {{Project Colorado}} to talk pages of all Colorado-related articles.
  • De-stub Colorado stubs.

Hello! I blocked the IP vandal of the above page but I haven't placed it under protection. The history of the page doesn't show rapid, repeated vandalism in a short space of time. If it does so then there may be a case for semi-protection. If you think that it should be semi-protected right now then you can make a case for this at WP:ANB. Regards, (aeropagitica) 18:19, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Felony vandalism

[edit]

You just referred to something as "felony vandalism." I'm uncertain what you mean by that, and would caution against the phrase - it's both a violation of WP:AGF and awfully close to a legal threat. Phil Sandifer 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but it wasn't vandalizing the main page - it was the talk page. And also, indefinite blocks != felonies. Phil Sandifer 18:54, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Vertical Lists

[edit]

Eh, I'm on the fence about your edit to my userpage (though I totally don't mind or anything.) I usually use asterixes for longer lists -- for a brief list of things (like pages I'm trying to remind myself to work on) a horizontal list takes up less space and let's me see my whole user page at once. But it's totally a work in progress and I'm going to leave it your way for a while and see what I think about it. Cheers! Dina 19:07, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removing semi-protection

[edit]

Hi. I've removed the semi-protection on your talk page. I know that vandalism of talk pages can be a problem, but it's important that users be able to be contacted by newbies with questions and concerns about things they don't understand. I hope you understand - please feel free to contact me with any questions. Phil Sandifer 19:28, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Taichung City

[edit]

I am new on WikiProject Cities. I have added considerable content to the first city I am working on, which happens to be the city of my residence, Taichung City. Would you mind taking a few minutes to look it over and leave comments on how you think I can make it better to bring it up to WikiProject Cities standards in a section of the discussion page for the city’s article page that I have set up.

Thank you. Ludahai 03:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Recent additions to WP:AIV

[edit]

I hate vandalism and I hate vandals, but unless I missed something, it isn't really proper procedure to report users after giving them a single warning, and then not waiting for them to vandalize again. Vandalism after the final warning is one of the criteria that is supposed to be satisfied before listing them on WP:AIV... --Onorem 17:08, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Inappropriate edit summaries

[edit]

For about the 3rd or 4th time, PLEASE stop with the inappropriate edit summaries and reports to WP:AIV. Stop categorizing things as "John Cena edits" or "Vince MacMahon like vandalism" or "children". Such comments are completely inappropriate. Please simply state something like "revert vandalism" without adding your own comments. Thanks, Metros232 18:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage Content Removed

[edit]

I removed a large amount of content from your page, as it appeared you were using your user page to write a story. You do have a decent degree of latitude when it comes to your userpage, but the excessive irrelevant content does not belong on Wikipedia. Perhaps you should put them on one of your finely-crafted personal websites. Thanks. -- tariqabjotu 22:52, 29 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wheel of Fortune

[edit]

I restored the last names of the show's record holders. If the first names are relevant, so are the last names (mostly taken from the show's official records), and contrary to your edit comment, some of us DO care about the last names, for the sake of historical completeness. If you'd like to discuss this, I'd be happy to. JTRH 15:54, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is to inform you that Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports Car Racing has finally been launched. Due to your expressed interest in the project, it'd be greatly appreciated if you'd check in on it and help in any way possible. The359 02:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Aloha, WTGDMan. Good intentions with your warning at User talk:22113letitsnow, but I don't think that this template was the way to go. The "You are potentially offending people" line is just confusing given the context, and blanking a talk page is never the way to go unless we're dealing with an indefinitely blocked user, which letitsnow is not at this moment. Remember to assume good faith; the kids on that page had never been told that their behavior was inappropriate. Cheers, A Train take the 14:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Although I appreciate your help in keeping an eye on 22113letitsnow, it didn't do us any good for you to delete their comments as vandalism. Other admins might have different opinions on this, but by removing their talk page comments and leaving only our warnings, it appears at a glance that I've indef blocked a user for no reason whatsoever. "Vandalism" is hard to define on talk pages, but what they were doing (although certainly not appropriate) was not vandalism. Your edit summaries are also a little harsh. I see from your user page that you'd like to be an admin. One of the single biggest criteria for adminship is keeping a cool head. Making rash edit summaries and coming up with theories that blame minor celebrities for orchestrating vandalism don't demonstrate that quality. Try to take it a little easier. Thanks again for your help, though. A Train take the 15:31, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject Automobiles Notification

[edit]

Hi WTGDMan1986, you were on the list of members at WikiProject Automobiles and we are introducing a new way of listing members, as the old list was becoming too long. Our new method involves having all of our members in a category.

To add yourself to the category just add the userbox to your user page by putting {{Wiki Auto Project}} where you want the userbox. Alternatively if you don't like the userbox you can add [[Category:WikiProject Automobiles members|WTGDMan1986]] to your userpage.

If you no longer wish to be a member of the project, simply don't add the userbox or category, there's no pressure. Thanks for your time, James086Talk | Contribs 04:40, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Simpsons WikiProject

[edit]

Hi, there has recently been some contention over the isse of whether Simpsons character pages need "episodes featuring" lists and it's been decided that the issue will be put to a vote. As a member of the WikiProject, your opinion on the matter would be appreciated. Join the discussion here. Thanks, Scorpion 05:03, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please chime in if you have a view

[edit]

There's an interesting experience going on over at WikiProject California, and WikiProject Southern California.

Some time ago, WikiProject California members had placed their project tags on all articles about California cities. Those tags have been in place for some time. Recently certain members of WikiProject Southern California, after discussion on that project's talk page (only), decided to remove the WikiProject California tags for (almost all) Southern California cities, and replace the tags with WikiProject Southern California tags - only.

That is, the WikiProject Southern California members didn't simply add the WikiProject Southern California tag to Southern California cities, the WikiProject California tags were completely removed. This was done apparently without consultation with the WikiProject California members.

We are gathering responses to the following questions on those projects' talk pages:

  • Do you have a view whether the WikiProject California tag should be removed from a large number of cities in Southern California?
  • Do you have a view whether city article for Southern California cities should have more than one WikiProject tag?

Please let us know if you have a view! Spamreporter1 16:05, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rock music Wikiproject invitation

[edit]

Hello WikiProject Metal member.
WikiProject Metal music is important in expanding encyclopedic coverage of the metal. It brings attention to the lesser-known bands, and significantly improves the quality of the famous ones. Five Featured articles and two formers is proof of that.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently resurrected WikiProject Rock music. I hope to also attract attention to rock music articles of all sorts, and hopefully change some to GA or FA status. I invite you to come join us, and embrace the links between metal and rock music in general.
Rock on.

Proposed deletions

[edit]

The proposal is under WP:PROD, so if you disagree with deletion, you may remove the prod tag (any editor may remove a prod tag for any reason, though it's certainly much appreciated if a rationale for removal is provided). This will stop the proposed deletion process. However, you may want to review WP:N and WP:BIO, to see what's generally required for articles in general, and some good guidelines to what generally works for biographical articles. Has she been covered in any secondary (independent) sources, such as a newspaper or magazine? I wasn't really able to find a thing on her other than primary sources.

New WikiProject Illinois Collaboration Division

[edit]

Hey, saw you were a participant in the Illinois WikiProject. I thought I would let you know that there is a new Collaboration Division up for the project. The goal of the division is to select an article or articles for improvement to Good article standard or higher. There is a simple nomination process, which you can check out on the division subpage, to make sure each candidate for collaboration has enough interested editors. This is a good way to get a lot of articles to a quality status quickly. Please consider participating. More details can be seen at the division subpage. IvoShandor 11:29, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Greetings. There is going to be a Washington DC Wikipedia meetup on next Saturday, July 21st at 5pm in DC. Since you are listed in Category:Wikipedians_in_Maryland, I thought I'd invite you to come. I'm sorry about the short notice for the meeting. Hopefully we'll do somewhat better in that regard next time. If you can't come but want to make sure that you are informed of future meetings be sure to list yourself under "but let me know about future events", and if you don't want to get any future direct notices \(like this one\), you can list yourself under "I'm not interested in attending any others either" on the DC meetup page.--Gmaxwell 00:27, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimania Atlanta

[edit]

Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs. If you would like to contribute more, please write on my talk page, the talk page of the bid, or join us at the #wikimania-atlanta IRC chat on freenode.org. Have a great day!

P.S. While this is a template for maximum efficiency, I would appreciate a note on my talk page so I know you got the message, and what you think. This is time-sensitive, so your urgent cooperation is appreciated. :) Mike H. I did "That's hot" first! 07:24, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notice to all members of WikiProject Maryland

[edit]

There are a few things going on right now in WikiProject Maryland that I thought all members should know about, especially the first one.

  • Not too long ago, Marylandstater raised the question of exactly how many members of the project are still active. For this reason, I'm asking everyone who is still active, and wants to remain in the project, to put an asterisk (*) after their username on the project's participants list. You have until the end of November 17, 2007 to do so, sometime after that, all the names that do not have an asterisk will be removed. This is just to clean up the ever expanding list. If you've been gone and come back to find that you've been removed from the list, don't take it personally, just re-add yourself! I won't feel bad at all if no one gets removed, in fact, it would be nice if all 30 members still consider themselves active. Also, this won't affect the two subprojects, but speaking of the subprojects...
  • As of sometime next week WikiProject Baltimore City College will be no more. Myself, Golem88991, and John Carter have decided to make it into a task force of WikiProject Maryland. If you have any objections, concerns, or comments, please post them in the talk page topic concerning this.

Now for the exiting news:

  • I'm pleased to announce the creation of the Baltimore Task Force! Those interested in contributing to Wikipedia's numerous articles related to Maryland's largest city, now have a place to collaborate.
  • I'd also like to take this time to propose a project newsletter. Any comments should be directed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maryland#Newsletter.

A couple last things:

  • The portal is in desperate need of maintenance, anyone who's interested, go check it out.
  • It's probably a good idea to add the project page (and thus the project talk page) to your watchlist. That way, you can easily see when new comments are posted.

I hope you read through all that ;). Thanks to all members for your contributions to the project's articles so far, let's keep up the good work!
Sincerely, -Jeff (talk) 05:41, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Bob Levy

[edit]

Hi. I'm not really sure what the problem is. The Bob Levy link leads to a dab page, which in turn leads to - sorry, used to lead to - the correct redlink Bob Levy (producer). Notice Leslie Morgenstein is a redlink as well, because the article hasn't been created yet - neither has Bob Levy (producer), but linking to a page which has nothing to do with the Bob Levy we're dealing with is just irrelevant! See WP:RED for some info on redlinks :) You'll also see that many dab pages are filled with redlinks, they don't just link to already-created articles, e.g. Jack and Jill (there are some better examples, but that was a quick little search). Hope that clarifies any issues :) •97198 talk 14:04, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Vandalism" warning

"Vandalism" warning

[edit]

Ola. Regarding your warning, you claim that you reverted the edits when this is not the case. Someone from our own IP address reverted the edit, which was caught as vandalism. If you wish to use a template to communicate, at least use one which is appropriate to the situation. It seems you have a history of sending these messages out carelessly. --194.154.171.154 15:15, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Golden Gate Bridge

[edit]

Not quite sure why your edit summary says that you reverted one of my edits. I was trying to revert the vandalism from the IP that damaged the page (I'm using VandalProof to revert such infractions). I hope you don't take this the wrong way. No hard feelings. --DFW 15:21, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You reverted some of the vandalism, but not all of it, so in order to get back to a revision without vandalism, I had to revert not only the vandals but also you. This doesn't mean I think you did anything wrong. Unfortunately I missed the "h" at the end of the line, but it seems you have fixed that. Thanks – Gurch 15:25, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear User: IMPORTANT WIKI ARCADE GAMES PROJECT NOTICE

[edit]

As you should be aware the wiki arcade games project has been marked inactive and with good reason. I am trying to increase the activity of this project but first I need to know who is still actually interested. So to find out I have put inactive next to the name of every person who has put them selves down as a participant of the project. If for whatever reason you do not intend to participate in the project anymore please remove your name from the participant list altogether. If you do but not in the near future leaving inactive next to your username will be helpful. Not taking any action at all will of course lead to inactive remaining against your name on the participant list. If however you have every intention on continuing in participating in the project please come change the "inactive" next to your username to "ACTIVE" so that it is clear who does and who does not still have interest in participating in the project.

News

Cape Lookout Lighthouse

Hello WikiProject North Carolina members! A few of us at the The Newsroom Team decided to get together and re-energize the project, through these newsletters. This newsletter is hopefully the first of many to come. We want this project to be active in creating and expanding articles related to our state. If you're a current or former resident of the state, we hope that you will help spread the knowledge of how much there is to learn about North Carolina.

  • A great way to expand new articles is by keeping track of the new articles list. Please add any new NC-related articles or older ones you come across that have not been tagged with the project banner. When you notice an article has been added to the list, read over it and check for citations, grammatical errors, and spelling. If you've written a NC-related article in the past 5 days, read the requirements for Did you know... and add your article to the DYK nomination list. It might be chosen for the Main Page!
  • If you see a new member added to the project list, a great idea would be to leave them a welcome message on their talk page. Show them we notice new members and that we want them to become active participants.
  • If you have any questions in regards to the project, feel free to contact someone from The Newsroom Team. Thanks for all of your hard work and happy editing!

The Ohio Portal

The maintainers of the Ohio Portal are looking to get it to featured status. They would like to ask all project members to help improve it any way they can. What needs to be done most is the supplying of selected articles and images.

Selected Article: Indian Head Rock

There is a eight ton rock in Ohio that was removed from the Ohio River. This rock is known as the Indian Head Rock Dating back to the early 1800’s, this rock was seen sticking out of the Ohio River and used as a navigational mark for barges along the river. The names of citizens from the town of Portsmouth, Ohio are carved into the rock from the late nineteenth a early twentieth centuries. Some of the names were of well known families from Ohio. They would swim out to the rock, have their picture taken with it or simply carve their names into it.
With the advent of the Locks and Dams along the Ohio River, the rock eventually was submerged, but the legend lived on. A gentleman from Ironton, Ohio located the rock after searching a very long time for it, and he and a crew of scuba divers recovered the rock and took it to the shore to be donated to Ohio for historical value.
After hearing the news about the rock being removed, Kentucky introduced legislation against the removal of the rock. They also want the diver who found it to be prosecuted for removing the rock. Kentucky owns the greatest part of the land the river runs on. Even the Army Corp. of Engineers got involved as to how to move the rock without damaging it. Kentucky wants to have it returned to the river.

Getting the Project Moving
  • WikiProject Ohio as an entity doesn't have as much action as other state projects. For this reason it has been proposed that the inactive WikiProject Ohio Townships be added as our taskforce. There is a !poll going on at WT:OH and your opinion is essential in the matter!
  • Stepshep has also proposed sending an invite to everyone in Category:Wikipedians in Ohio with an invite to join the project. If you are already a member you would not receive the notice of course. Once again, please note your opinion on the project talkpage.

The Central Avenue Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located at 201 to 338 Central Avenue in Dayton, Ohio. It consists of late 19th and 20th Century Revival-style houses as well as late Victorian-style houses, which were all originally single-family residences.

On December 16, 1982, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Each month a new Ohio related stub is the selected article. If you have a new stub created feel free to nominate it at the NewsDesk.

Message from WikiProject Punk music

[edit]

Hello!

You may be interested to know that WikiProject Punk music has recently undergone a major revitalization. Please visit the project page to see our new look and check out some of our helpful new features, such as the Assessment Department and the Collaboration of the week. There are also a number of tasks on our Things to do page that you may be interested in helping with.

We are currently holding a roll call to help gauge how many active project members we have. Please visit the project's talk page and add your signature to the roll sheet to express your continued interest in the project. Also, if you have not already done so, please take a minute to add your name to the Participants page along with a brief summary of your punk-related interests, so that other project members will be better able to collaborate with you. If you do not add your signature to the roll sheet by November 30, 2008 your name will be moved to our list of inactive members. We may also take the liberty of removing the project userbox from your userpage if it appears there, to prevent you from automatically appearing in Category:WikiProject Punk music members. Of course you are free to rejoin the project and re-add the userbox at any time if you would like to become active in the project again.

Thank you and we hope you will continue to support WikiProject Punk music!

Dates

[edit]

Hello, WTGDMan1986. Wikipedia generally does not link dates anymore; this is part of the reason why I reverted your edit to the James Lafferty article. The bigger reason is that I wanted to restore the article further, to before an IP had edited Sophia Bush in under the spouse title. Bush is not Lafferty's spouse. Even though it said "Dating" before you edited it, I still had to revert further. Flyer22 (talk) 07:41, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject, or I happen to know personally).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:41, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Volunteer opportunity in Bethesda, Thursday, July 16

[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation will be conducting an all-day Academy at the National Institutes of Health, in Bethesda, Maryland, on Thursday, July 16. The team that will be teaching at the Academy, a mix of paid staff and volunteers, is looking for four more volunteers to be teaching assistants, providing one-to-one assistance in workshops whenever a workshop participant has a problem following the instructional directions. (We currently have two editors signed up as teaching assistants, and are looking for a total of six.)

The NIH editing workshops are only for two hours, but volunteers are asked to meet the Wikimedia Foundation team at the hotel in Bethesda at about 7:15 a.m. (time to be finalized shortly) and to stay for the entire day, which ends at 4:30 p.m. Lunch will be provided. (The full schedule can be found here.)

The team is not necessarily looking for expert editors (though they are welcome), just people who can help novices who might get stuck when trying to do some basic things. If you've been an editor for at least 3 months, and have done at least 500 edits, you probably qualify.

If you're interested, please send John Broughton an email. If you might be interested, but would like further information, please post a note on his user talk page, so that he can respond there, and others can see what was asked.

Noticed that you joined and that you may be a good editor. Could you look at the C class articles? Many of these need the grammar checked to advance to B class status. I'm not qualified to make that assessment. Welcome to the team. BTW, have you considered having your talk page automatically archived? If you want to make this happen use edit to look at the top of my talk page for the code to set up the bot to do the archiving for you. The bot should do its first archive within 24 hours of your adding the code. Vegaswikian (talk) 22:18, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dear WikiProject Video games member,

You are receiving this message because you have either Category:WikiProject Video games members or {{User WPVG}} somewhere in your userspace and you have edited Wikipedia in recent months.

The Video games project has created a member list to provide a clearer picture of its active membership.

All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:

Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.

There hasn't been much activity at WikiProject Missouri or any of its child projects lately, and I saw your name on the list of active participants. If you are willing to jump in again, please consider helping to revive the project:

If you know anyone who might be interested in Missouri (its history, culture, sports, people, places, architecture, etc.), please pass this message along to them! If you are still interested in the project but aren't currently active, please add yourself to the list of inactive participants at the bottom of this list. Thanks!

WikiProject Professional wrestling newsletter message

[edit]

It has recently been brought to the attention of WP:PW that the newsletter is being to delivered to several users who have not been actively editing for several months. As a result, their talk pages have become increasingly large, unmanageable and slow to load due to a lack of archiving.
In response, this message is being sent to all editors listed in Category:WikiProject Professional wrestling participants to say that anyone who does not list their name at Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Newsletter/Active before May 16 will be automatically listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Newsletter/Nospam, and will no longer receive the newsletter or any notification of it. If you are added to Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Newsletter/Nospam, please feel free to remove your name if you desire.
If you wish to continue receiving the newsletter as normal, please add your name to Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Newsletter/Active. If you simply wish to receive notification of a new issue, but not have the full newsletter delivered to your talk page, please add your name to the notification only list.
If you have any queries please contact me at my talk page or leave a message at WT:PW. Thank you for your co-operation. ♥NiciVampireHeart00:36, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer

[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 01:12, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend participation by fashion editors on the Ugg boots article. This is fashion footwear worn by such celebrities as Sarah Jessica Parker, Kate Hudson, Jessica Simpson and Oprah Winfrey. In most of the world it's a well-recognized designer brand, but in Australia and New Zealand, it's considered a "generic term" and several editors, possibly representing knockoff brands or even counterfeiters, have been POV-pushing the generic term.

Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted in Troy, Alabama

[edit]

Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're a member of WikiProject Alabama. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Troy University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

I know Alabama is a big state, but if you happen to live near Troy and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from Troy who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 16:34, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question about WikiProject South Carolina

[edit]

Greetings, I have been watching WikiProject South Carolina for a while and it doesn't appear to be very active and I had a proposition for the members to consider. I would like to pull WPUS under WikiProject United States to some degree. I am not necessarily talking a full merger unless thats what the members of WPSC want but here is what I mean.

  1. The project would stay the way it is except for a couple things. I would like to replace {{WikiProject South Carolina}} with {{WikiProject United States}} and add WPSC to the list of Projects supported by WPUS. This would include replacing the WPSC template on the talk pages of the articles with WPUS/South Carolina (if you want to see an examply you camn look at Washington DC).
  2. I would also add it to the list of Projects supported by WPUS on the main WPUS landing page.

This would do a couple things that I think would benefit both projects.

  1. It would increase visibility of South Carolina and related articles to a much larger user base
  2. It would allow WPSC to more easily benefit from the Bots running for WPUS. This includes article alert bot that warns of Articles and Images for deletion or Promotion. This would ensure maximum visibility if an article relating to South Carolina was submitted for deletion or promotion.
  3. It would allow the South Carolina related articles to fall under the WPUS and South Carolina scope.
  4. It would somewhat reduce the maintenance required by consolidating the templates
  5. It would reduce the number of templates visibile on the articles
  6. In addition to the above, I typically cycle through all the articles in the WPUS scope every month or 2 fixing various things (sections, typos, persondata, categories, etc) and this would allow the South Carolina articles to fall under that much more easily.

Please let me know what thoughts or ideas you have about this and if the other members would be receptive to this. I also added a message to the talk page of WikiProject South Carolina. Thanks in advance. --Kumioko (talk) 21:01, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Colorado

[edit]

The year 2011 has brought many changes to the State of Colorado. Several users have asked us to reactivate WikiProject Colorado. We have a new Governor and other state officers, two new U.S. Representatives, many new state legislators, and a new Mayor of Denver. Many articles about Colorado need to be updated and many Colorado places, people, and organizations need new articles. Portal:Colorado needs some new featured articles.

Can you help us? Please see our list of some requested articles. If you would like to remain an active member of WikiProject Colorado, please leave me a message at User talk:Buaidh or e-mail me at Special:EmailUser/Buaidh. If you cannot help right now, you can go to inactive status and then reactivate your status later. Thanks for any help you can provide. Yours aye,  Buaidh  17:34, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
