Unspecified source for Image:Jayne_cap.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Jayne_cap.jpg. 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}} 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 06:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Videmus Omnia Talk 06:56, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Leaving?

[edit]

I just noticed your comments on the sandbox talk page. I was about to comment, but I saw your userpage first. Why are you leaving Wikipedia? :( Nishkid64 (talk) 19:33, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I kinda thought that I give up explained it pretty well ... actually, I haven't been able to kick this habit completely, so I just do anon WikiGnome stuff when I need a "fix". -) --Dennette (talk) 16:54, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Internet celebrity

[edit]

I am not sure if I follow. From my understanding, it seems your asking how to appropriately correct ref #8 on your bio. Is that correct? Nishkid64 (talk) 20:06, 2 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant ... I'd like to move that up to the opening paragraph as an "assertion of notability". :-) I guess List of Internet phenomena#People is what I was thinking about, so I'd like to "claim" membership in that group. --Dennette (talk) 13:46, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

hello

[edit]

I am very new here...maybe 5 weeks. I am captivated by the width and breathe and potential of Wikipedia. It has replaced internet poker as my "residence". In my wanderings thru the nooks and crannies, I searched for a focal point...a base of operation. Early on, I started to read discussion pages and soon realized how much time was being "wasted" in defense of or promotion of such miniscule factors within articles. I also realized how entrenched POV's can become. I had a few little battles, felt sucessful, but realized that POV battling was not the arena that I wanted to be drawn into.

Let me get to the point of why I reach out to you. In my travels within WikiWorld I started to realize that quality editors (my POV) were leaving. Of course, I wondered why. Let me say, reading your page and others like it was VERY enlightening and rewarding. And it tied into an idea I had a week or two back. Maybe, with a little help from my friends(?), I could be like Mighty Mouse and "Save the Day". Or maybe it would be a place I could hang my hat for a few hours a day and get some real work done. What is it, you ask? (at least I hope you ask). "IT" is only in the Genisis stage. It's still in the shell,so to speak. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/wikiknights I hope it sounds interesting to you. Please let me know what you think. Maybe its not "planted" in the right place...maybe its a reinvention of the wheel and is already in place...maybe it will become my own little windmill. I dont know. Thanks for your time and good luck. --Buster7 (talk) 12:03, 19 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
