Comments on contributions from the user

Christian Fraternity

Thanks man for fixing that up, it looks great and the information is very good. We agree one hundred percent with it! Jczupjczup

Vanderbilt University

Thanks for bulking up the Vandy athletics information!

Sigma Phi Lambda

Watch the editorializing on the Sigma Phi Lambda page. --Jczup

Welcome

Welcome to wikipedia and thanks for your mondo edits to Vanderbilt University and specifically the athletics sections. It looks great. --Ttownfeen 04:11, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kappa Upsilon Chi

Who did you talk to since you said you had confirmation from officials at Kappa Upsilon Chi. I called one of the Board of Directors and he instructed me to change the trivia and history back and we would like to correct the person who gave you any form of an unauthorized confirmation.

Christian Fraternity Category

Can you make a Wiki ring similar to one for IFC or Panhellenic for Christian Greek Organizations? I have no idea how to do that.

Thanks man! Jczup 15:07, 14 June 2006 (UTC)jczup[reply]

New articles

Please don't make a whole bunch of new articles with no actual content in them. If you want to make a list of articles which are needed in your userspace, do that. Write the articles when you have time to actually write them. I'm going to WP:PROD them now, instead of speedying them, however be aware that they may be speedy-deleted. Mak (talk) 03:12, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:STUB. The articles you were creating were not substantial enough even to be called stubs, since they contained absolutely no information specific to the specific article. Stubs are good. Pages with only templates and stub notices in them are not so good. Mak (talk) 20:28, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tennessee spam

See [1] and [2]. -Will Beback 20:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks -- I was just curious

That's quite alright - you shouldn't hesitate to question edits that look odd. Cheers, -Will Beback 21:58, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re:AFDs?

You said: I'm curious: if you're not an admin, how do you have authority to delete? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Diezba (talk • contribs)

I don't have the delete privilege assigned to my account. What are you talking about? Alphachimp ^talk 03:17, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A wikify tag isn't so much a statement that "this page violates policy", as it is a suggestion that the stylistic and title elements of the page need to be fixed. This could also extend to the inclusion of information that is not necessary for wikipedia (e.g. the founders of the frat). Although a talk page mention is suggested in the template, editors rarely use the talk page for the cleanup or wikify tags. I hope that helps. Alphachimp ^talk 03:21, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. That definition is different from the one I was using. No worries. It wasn't a condemnation of the article. Alphachimp ^talk 03:23, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also push the signature button

located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you!Alphachimp ^talk 03:36, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

wiki-marxists

This is a request for immediate help from Kmaguir1 07:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC). If you have time, I'd like you to examine the Bell Hooks article and talk page. It's a scholarly article about a controversial writer, someone who drew the ire of a conservative commentator. They wanted me to go get the quote from her book, and I did that. But now, they're arguing it's not notable. As a follower of Wikipedia, you will know that of all the meaningless academic trivia included on her page, that what they wanted to exclude was really ridiculous: that she says as an opening to her book, Killing Rage, "I am writing this essay sitting beside an anonymous white male that I long to murder". This may in itself be notable, but David Horowitz wrote about it in 100 Dangerous Professors, and it was written about on front page mag, and all the citations are given on the page. I would appreciate your help--I'm contending with some very difficult Marxists who are attached to her work, and think that they're defending the liberal cause, but really, they're just keeping out material that is very easily notable.-Kmaguir1 07:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings. In the interest of disclosure, I'd like to inform you of a conduct RfC on Kmaguir1. It's here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Kmaguir1. If you have time and are so inclined, feel free to provide comments there. Meanwhile, if you go to the bell hooks page, please do join in the discussion. If you read the Talk page and look at my and others' edit histories, you'll see that the picture is not quite as Kmaguir1 paints it. (I have no idea who the Marxists are he's referring to, and I've also edited his text for improvement, and left it in the article, vs. what he's saying here.)

Bottom line: welcome to bell hooks, be aware of the RfC, and feel free to join it. Cheers,--Anthony Krupp 17:26, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

VU athletics

I noticed that you've removed the {{citeneeded}} tags from the Vanderbilt University article and replaced them with a link to vucommodores.com. I'm going to edit those where possible to replace them with links to actual websites. It would be helpful if, in the future, you could cite the actual articles, rather than just "Commodore History Corner" from vucommodores.com. None of the Commodore History Corner articles I read contained a reference to W. L. Granbery, for example. Esrever 02:57, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WAY-FM

I realize it's been over 6 months, but I was wondering if you could explain this split: [3]. Both articles seem to imply that these two articles are on separate subjects, but the larger one lists the stations in the smaller one as belonging to them. Long story short: what is the difference, if any? Thanks! JPG-GR 07:47, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are two WAY-FMs -- one is a national, Christian radio network; the other is a local station that has no affiliation with the national network but uses a similar "handle," or station identifier.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Vanderbilt University Seal.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Vanderbilt University Seal.jpg. 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 '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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 17:20, 28 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Baptist_Hymnal.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Baptist_Hymnal.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 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 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. Bigr Tex 19:20, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of mayors of Rogersville, Tennessee

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of mayors of Rogersville, Tennessee, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of List of mayors of Rogersville, Tennessee. -- Huntster ^{T • @ • C} 06:52, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Rogersville images

Greetings Diezba, nice work on documenting Rogersville, but I would like to bring two issues to your attention.

It appears you only place references by themselves at the bottom of the page; it is strongly preferred that editors use the <ref></ref> system of referencing, so that readers can discover exactly what material came from what source, and so other editors can determine what material was added without any reference (perhaps by editors who come after you). I would encourage you to go back and create this setup, and if you need help in doing this, just let me know and I'll work with you to fix it up.
All of the images you are uploading are licensed as free use in one way or another. That is fantastic, except I must question whether the Chamber of Commerce is legally able to declare some of these images as such. Most recently, I see Image:PressmensHome.gif, which says that it was both a postcard (theoretically a commercial object) and that it is from 1925. Declaring the image as public domain requires that it meet certain criteria, and it appears that currently, only works from before 1923 may be declared public domain, though it may be something that needs to be checked on. Alternatively, if the postcard was produced for sale by the city/county, then yes, the current copyright holder could declare it public domain, thus releasing all rights. If, though, someone was hired by the city/county to take the photograph, a whole other set of copyright laws come into effect. Basically, it is messy. I'm not saying that anything is being done incorrectly, just that great care must be taken when it comes to copyright issues. Wikipedia definitely wants to avoid any legal issues that may arise due to improper licensing.

Cheers! -- Huntster ^{T • @ • C} 04:14, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Chamber of Commerce, of which my mom is the director (hence my familiarity with the material and the abundance of resources available to me with which to write), has the copyright to all the images that I have indicated; the Chamber, through its agent, has authorized the use of those images on Wikipedia for the purpose of (1) documenting Rogersville and its associated history; and (2) promoting and perpetuating the study of Rogersville and its history. The Pressmen's Home postcard was originally created by the Pressmen's Union; there were a limited run of the postcards; these were then given to the Chamber of Commerce, along with the rights thereto, once the Pressmen's Union abandoned Pressmen's Home (see the Pressmen's Home article for more information on the situation). Thus, the Chamber has the rights to the post card and its associated imagery (not to mention the fact that the photographer is dead, the Union is no longer extant, and the Chamber is the only one with the remaining postcards). Diezba (talk) 04:41, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's great to hear. So long as all the bases are covered, everything should be fine :) Thanks for your work in documenting these things. (Though I still hold concerns for point number 1 above!) -- Huntster ^{T • @ • C} 20:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

William Wilberforce

Thanks for your message. Infoboxes aren't used to keep track of articles but to summarize info for readers, and that is why they are placed at the top of articles. Categories, or links to wikiprojects on the talkpage are better ways of doing what you are after, and if you look on the talkpage you will see that WW is already part of the Saints project. In any case, articles only have one infobox and this one has one already. You put the extra one right at the bottom of the article, repeating a bunch of information about his name, background, age, date of birth/death, his picture, place of birth etc. etc etc, and listing his name as Saint William Wilberforce, which is not a verifiable name for the guy.[5] Anglicans don't call any post-Reformation people "Saint Anything", even if they are in the liturgical calendar. His feast day varies from country to country too. All in all that's why I deleted it. I realize and appreciate that you put some work into making it, and I'm sorry for this, but it really didn't improve the article I fear. I hope you understand. --Slp1 (talk) 01:31, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BYX Crest

Hey, just wanted to drop a line and say thanks for updating the crest. That had been bothering me and my knowledge of "Fair Use" is very limited! --Keylay 16:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I generated this image years ago during my tenure in TCU's BYX chapter. The current version on the page is low-resolution and probably a violation of copyright law. With BYX's permission, I can export a high-resolution version for you. Contact me at yayfrogs_at_gmail_dot_com. Thanks, Brian.

Hey man, thanks for putting up the Auburn information! I see you took care of the prospective chapters and the Christian fraternity page too! Thanks man!!! --Keylay 12:07, 1 November 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.27.111 (talk) [reply]

Image copyright problem with File:Charlie Chase.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Charlie Chase.jpg. 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.

Evidence of permission

I've tagged several of your images for potential deletion — a list follows my message. You have posted them with a free license or released them into the public domain, but you say that they're from the Chamber of Commerce. Wikipedia doesn't have anything against the Chamber, but you need to provide evidence that the Chamber is authorizing their uploading under these licenses. You have seven days to resolve the problem, after which time they will be deleted unless evidence is provided. At any point in the future, if you can get evidence of such permission, you could restore the images. Any questions? Ask at my talk page. Nyttend (talk) 04:49, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:RogersvilleHistoricDistrict.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:RogersvilleHistoricDistrict.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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

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 15:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stifle (talk) 15:55, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} 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.

Ken Givens

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: Ken Givens. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:11, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Ken Givens

The article Ken Givens has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Proposed deletion of File:Samford University Habitat for Humanity.jpg

The file File:Samford University Habitat for Humanity.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Recent edits to St Alban-on-the-Moors Church

Hi Diezba!

I noticed that you made a very substantial edit to the article on St Alban-on-the-Moors Church. Thank you for being proactive with this. I think that the edit is broadly constructive.

I have to ask where you got such significant information from. I notice that you didn't add any references for the information, which raises the concern that the text may have been copied from another source, and may not be freely available. If there are sources you have used, then please let me know, and the text can be referenced - if you gained this information yourself (from a visit to the church, for example), then please disclose this on the talk page.

I also note that you removed information about controversy about the church from 2020. Whilst I understand the motive to paint a good organisation in a good light (as a Catholic myself), Wikipedia is not censored, and the available news coverage was notable. If it is alright with you I will add this information back to the article - I can phrase it in a different way if you would find that more appropriate. In addition to this, some would argue that the section "Liturgy" is not in an encyclopaedic style, so I may reword it a bit.

Thanks! Bibeyjj (talk) 13:26, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
