Rattray

Not sure why you marked this for deletion - do you know his work?

I rate him as VERY important!

Patrick7286

Why do you go around marking everything for deletion but dont explain a thing under the discussion page? Of course theres going to be little info on the page 2 SECONDS AFTER ITS CREATED! you have to wait a few seconds before you call things spam. Pages take a bit of time to become very relevant and they cant make it to relevancy if theyre marked for deletion the instant theyre created. —Preceding unsigned comment added by User:Patrick7286 (talk • contribs)

Userboxes

I have edited per Userbox migration. For that Smash Bros. character userbox, the argument had to be changed so that it would say "This user thinks the best Smash Bros. character is Samus Aran", instead of "This user thinks the best Smash Bros. character is {{{2}}}." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tedius Zanarukando (talk • contribs)

Richard Woolsey

Hi, I removed your undated comment from last July in the article Richard Woolsey, "Woolsey will appear in several more episodes of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis this season." You may want to go back and add more to the article now. Regards, Fayenatic london (talk) 22:51, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Move to Wikibooks?

The article's tone (advisory) and the direction it looks like it might take (extermely exhaustive) made me feel that it might not be appropriate for Wikipedia. But the work was actually good, and informative. I thought Wikibooks might be a good home for the information since the standards and objectives there are different, and more consultation like. With more development, it could become something along the lines of this featured wikibook: How To Assemble A Desktop PC. I'm always open to differing opinions, but I still feel like it was a reasonable proposal.--Esprit15d (talk ¤ contribs) 20:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll remove the tag, and just change to something about tone, since that is probably the biggest red flag.--Esprit15d (talk ¤ contribs) 20:28, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

test2

Thank you for blanketly reverting the page Fallacy of many questions on Wikipedia. Your attempt to ensure the article retains off-colour humor and borderline homophobia (as well as an unsourced statement) was successful, and I'm now powerless to do anything about it or I'll get tarred as a vandal and sockpuppet etc. etc. etc. Please continue using minor edits by anonymous editors for any further boosts to your edit-count you may want to do. Take a look at any given "real" encyclopedia to see a discernible lack of gay jokes, yet ignore this fact when continuing to edit Wikipedia. --209.222.52.99 21:07, 20 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kappa Kappa Psi

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Kappa Kappa Psi article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

Feel free to re-submit a new version of the article. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. Pagra shtak 05:03, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Vulcannervepinch.jpg

Hello BrotherFlounder, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Vulcannervepinch.jpg) was found at the following location: User:BrotherFlounder/Sandbox3. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not re-add the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Please note that it is possible that the image on your page is included vie a template or usebox. In that case, please find a free image for the template or userbox. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 06:38, 19 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:NASCAR-CoronaLogo.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:NASCAR-CoronaLogo.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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

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 05:01, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Martina christmas.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Martina christmas.jpg. 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 09:00, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Honorary Brothers - Kappa Kappa Psi

I was wondering about whether or not Chuck Norris is an honorary brother as well. However, after poking around for a bit I've come to find that it is actually possible he is an honorary of the Gamma chapter at Washington State. I'm currently looking into this with a brother from the chapter and I wanted you to know. I'll keep you posted on the status of my inquiries and, if he is in fact an honorary brother and I find it is verifiable I will post a message for you before I change the KKPsi page. AEA Fliry Vorru 03:10, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As it were, Dave Chapelle was voted in by Central State but they never sent in the paperwork AND they didn't put him through what they needed to put him through, if you catch my drift. His was a problem of a lack of follow through. The thing about the national website is that the site is outsourced to some guy and it takes them longer than it should to update it. Not to mention, the "Prominent Members" page hasn't been updated in a while and is updated whenever the guide to membership is. Robert W. Smith is on the list of Prominent Members on Wikipedia but he's not on the list on the national website. Yet because we have paper conformation that he is a legitimate brother it's all good. I'm just saying that we shouldn't be limited by the national website if there are other ways to confirm if people are honorary. That's the entire reason we have the "other sources needed" box at the top of the page. Fliry Vorru 16:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chuck Norris is on the official national roster as an honorary and was initiated in the Spring of 2006 by the Gamma chapter at Washington State University. I got in contact with the actual brother who changed the page originally and I saw a picture of the shingle for confirmation. I'm adding him back to the Prominent Members portion of the KKPsi page. If you need any other kind of confirmation just email Dixie at headquarters. AEA Fliry Vorru 21:41, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

First Strike

Hey,

A good example for the production would be this (though you don't need to write as much, of course). Basically the problem is presenting content in disorganised list form. Those continuity sections requite citations (or at least the ones I've seen). "Despite airing on the same night as the SG-1 finale "Unending", "First Strike" must take place some time later", why "must" it? That needs a source. Matthew 08:39, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Gatorbowl.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Gatorbowl.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia 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 non-free media 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. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

I understand now. It won't happen again. Thank you.--Padawan Animator (talk) 01:34, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Obviously, I do need to finish all necessary reading material about Wikipedia before I continue my good intentions. In fact, I think I'll make sure that I do that before I do anything else on Wikipedia.--Padawan Animator (talk) 01:38, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CSD tagging articles

Hi. Please do not tag articles as "nonsense" (as you did to Abby williams) unless it is: "an unsalvageably incoherent page with no meaningful content". Also note that nonsense does not include: poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, vandalism, fictional material, material not in English, badly translated material, implausible theories, or hoaxes of any sort; some of these, however, may be deleted as vandalism in blatant cases. This information is from WP:CSD#G1. Thanks, Rjd0060 (talk) 20:04, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
