User talk:BMT

I may be overstepping my bounds but I'd like to keep a tidy page so I will prune irrelevant, daft or nuisance messages. Old messages will be archived.

You should know that User:TheEditor20 has called you out over at AN. A Train ^{take the} 16:36, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another thing: blanking or "pruning" your talk page is bad form. You should be archiving instead. Blank talk pages make it very difficult to help out with disputes like the one you're having over Ben Thompson. A Train ^{take the} 16:43, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll look into it. --BMT 16:44, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding reversions[1] made on February 10 2007 to Ben Thompson

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.

I've edited through the text to remove the stuff that the references didn't back up, or was copied ad verbitim from the references. If you want to reintroduce that stuff, do, but either provide extra sources, or re-write so its not breaking copywrite. It looks like a perfectly good article now, though. --Robdurbar 22:00, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good work on this article. --Robdurbar 11:04, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:WindowsLoadingDriversVPC.PNG

I see that you're disputing my upload, I don't really mind if it doesn't meet fair use, all I would say is that it, as you know, does replace Windowsloadingdrivers.jpg so I was working on the basis of it being precedent, but it's the first non-free image I've uploaded so I don't know one way or another. --BMT 06:22, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the late reply. The issue with this image was that it didn't add anything useful to the article that couldn't be represented with text, a screenshot of Linux, etc. —Remember the dot ^(talk) 23:46, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:CAT Banner.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:CAT Banner.gif. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Orphaned non-free image File:CAT Banner.gif

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:CAT Banner.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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
