User talk:Colbuckshot

This is my open forum page. No cursing or swearing. No using the Lords name in vein. No Spanish (I can't read it and I don't intend to ever learn!) Nothing vulgar. Bloody and such won't be considered swear words. Failure to abide by this stuff will probably get your message edited or removed. I reserve the right to change my user talk page in any way I please.

License tagging for Image:Dmcs.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dmcs.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

DMCS

I was fixing various problems within [[Category:Lists of schools in the United States]]. I removed that category from this article because this article is about a school in the US, but it's not a list of schools in the US. I also removed the categories [[Category:Schools in the United States]] and [[Category:Private schools in the United States]]; they're not needed because they are supercategories of [[Category:Private schools in Iowa]].

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Dmcs.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Dmcs.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 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.BetacommandBot 03:42, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Template:User Antifeminist

A tag has been placed on Template:User Antifeminist, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per speedy deletion criterion T1.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[Talk:Template:User Antifeminist|the article's talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. - Mike Beckham 01:10, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting user subpages

Hi,

I noticed that you moved some pages from your old account to nonsense titles and blanked/redirected them. I interpreted this as a request for deletion and, given your edit summaries, a request for the old account to disappear under the right to vanish. Please let me know if this is not what you intended, and I'll remedy the situation. In the future, you can request speedy deletion of your own subpages by tagging them with {{db-userreq}}. — TKD::Talk 23:17, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Warning Regarding three-revert rule

You have now reverted a section relating to the article Reconstruction three times. The section is properly documented by a reference to Eric Foner’s “Reconstruction” -- the leading work on that era. If you have a valid issue take it to the discussion page. Before you make any further reversions you should review WP:3RR since you are approaching a violation of the Wikipedia three-revert rule.

Common Era

Please don't change articles from using CE and BCE to using AD and BC. Either dating style is acceptable, but changing existing articles from one to the other is not.-gadfium 05:28, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:TI-NspireCAS.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:TI-NspireCAS.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
