Welcome to Esperanza

Welcome, K-UNIT, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member, you might be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. We have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee , KnowledgeOfSelf, JoanneB, Titoxd and FireFox. The elections have ended.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact me via email or talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to be!

Thanks! M ^o P 23:35, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to welcome you. — nath a(?)nrdotcom ^{(T • C • W)} 03:09, 29 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Carnegie Mellon & Popular Culture

Hey - Could you check out the Talk page for Carnegie Mellon about the popular culture section? We've been having a conversation about separating it and integrating it, and I'm interested in why you re-integrated into the main article without discussing it first. --Matt 21:59, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, it just seemed such an obvious article to integrate it never occured to me that there would be some sort of controversy about it. It seems as is references to popular culture are integrated in every other Wikipedia article, and I didn't realize this would have been any different. If this caused any confusion or disruption, I apologize. K-UNIT 02:04, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Marijuana Wiki

Hi there,

I see that you are a pro-Cannabis Wikipedian so I hope this will be of some interest to you.

I've started a Marijuana wiki (aka The Sticky Wiki) which I think you might be interested in. I'm hoping you can help me get started with this project. Whereas lots of articles about weed get speedy-deleted on Wikipedia, they would be totally cool over at MarijuanaWiki. But really I want the site to be more of a marijuana community than merely an encyclopedia.

To give you an example, I want to have city guides about where to score, find pot-friendly cafes, marijuana events, and what represents a good price in that city. Etc. (You can check out the featured article: "Toronto" to see what I mean). Of course, I want to see articles about the negative health effects and the drug laws in each of the countries. I also want to have grow diaries and marijuana blogs. All in all, basically more communal than encyclopedic.

I am in need of admins/moderators, and people experienced with MediaWiki to help build policy, categories, and templates, etc. If you'd be interested in helping me with this project, the URL is MarijuanaWiki

Thanks for your time and consideration. Hope to see you there!

sXs

I dont see how you are striaght edge. Straight edge (sometimes abbreviated to sXe or SxE) is a lifestyle and (counter cultural) subculture, closely associated with punk, hardcore punk, and—more recently—heavy metal music. It advocates total, lifelong abstinence from tobacco, alcohol, and recreational drug use—especially psychoactive and stimulant drug use. Some straight edgers also abstain from promiscuous sexual behavior. MegaloManiac 18:48, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't use tobacco, alcohol, or any other sort of drugs and never plan on doing so. However, I do recognize people's right to do such things if they so choose, which I suppose does make me pro-cannabis. Also, I'll have you know that I do enjoy punk and heavy-metal music a great deal. But now that we have cleared that up, I'll start spreading the word that all us straight-edgers need your approval to identify themselves as so, oh Great SxE God...

Deletion review

I would like you to consider the deletion review of an article that was deleted without even 5 days review. No one gave a legitimate reason as to why it should be deleted. It was the first time I posted something on Wickepedia, I enjoy using it so I figured I would contribute something. See below: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Legacy_of_the_Home_Run

The article was already voted on and acheived a consensus for deletion. In my opinion this is validation enough for its deletion, regardless of its content. Futhermore, I would agree with the consensus opions by those expressed here for its deletion. Lastly, it's spelled "Wikipedia," not "Wickepedia." However, thanks a bunch for getting started in the Wikipedia community and my best wishes are for your next edits and articles to be more successful. All you have to do to succeed is keep in mind the Five pillars when editing. Also, be sure to sign your comments with four tildes, like this: ~~~~. Good luck! K-UNIT 22:51, 3 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A short Esperanzial update

As you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter.

As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections.

AWB

Hi Tkevin1. Thanks for contributing with AWB. I have to, however, point out to you that the number of insignificant minor edits you're making are in violation of the rules of use.

Avoid making insignificant minor edits such as only adding or removing some white space, moving a stub tag, converting some HTML to Unicode, removing underscores from links (unless they are bad links), or something equally trivial. This is because it wastes resources and clogs up watch lists.

See you around! —Mets501 (talk) 12:31, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I wasn't aware of that rule. However, those are the only edits that seem to ever come up with AWB. Do you have any suggestions that could put the program to better use, as I am so new with it? Would a bot account be more acceptable for that sort of thing? --K-UNIT 20:51, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, no kind of account. would be appropriate for that type of thing. Basically, you should not just run through articles on AWB applying minor fixes like that. It is more useful for a specific purpose, like changing a spelling, substituting a template, changing references to a category, etc. —Mets501 (talk) 17:25, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Carol Yager question

Kevin, Sorry to bother you again, but I'm still learning, and I consider you something of a mentor. I just noticed that on the 'Mediation' page, there is a section for entering 'Additional issues to be mediated'. Is it too late to enter new issues, after the article has been accepted for mediation? There are a couple of points I'd like to bring to the table. Tnx for any advice you can give.Terry Yager 22:16, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not completely familiar with the Mediation committee guidelines, so what I recommend is to ask Essjay at User talk:Essjay. He is the Chairman of the mediation committee and is very helpful. I'm sure he will be able to answer this and any other questions you have.--K-UNIT 22:32, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanx, I'll try that (I wasn't sure if I was allowed to ask Essjay such questions or not). Terry Yager 22:41, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin.

I just noticed that there's a new box on the 'talk' page, referring to the 'Wikipedia Biography Project'. I've tried following all the links, and I just find myself getting buried deeper in rules & regs, guidelines, etc, while not absorbing much in the way of useful information. Could wou point me to any links that might be of help? Terry Yager 00:35, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

First of all... I suggest you don't get involved in the biography project until the dispute is resolved, as that could easily complicate matters futher. But once the dispute is resolved, just add your name to the main biography page and form a workgroup for Carol Yager and see who wants to help out with it. Depending on the decision of the arbitration committee, you may or may not be able to contribute directly to the article but your input will certainly be useful no matter what the outcome. However, for now while the dispute is ongoing it would be best to keep things as simple as possible. But once that is done I'd be happy to answer any more questions you have. Also, I'm sure the two admins at the biography project will be glad to help also (as they undoubtedly would know more that regarding the project). Just explain your situation to them and ask what you can to to help. Here are links to thier talk pages: User talk:Kingboyk and User talk:Kaldari.--K-UNIT 02:38, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Prod

If a prod has been removed from an article, you cannot re-prod it. The fact that Marudubshinki removed the prod from Human World without any explanation does not matter. You cannot re-prod it and you must take it to WP:AFD instead. Please see WP:PROD or ask me if you have questions. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 22:09, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's ridiculous what you have to go through to get something like this deleted around here. For 8 days I have been waiting for an admin to come along and see it. And now just because somebody (not you) decides to remove a tag without any explanation or changes whatsoever I have to go through more and more bureaucracy just to get shit wiped clean that has been hanging around here for months already. If you think a certain article merits deletion, help out, don't just delete tags and point me to more pages with names like WP:PROD or WP:AFD. I don't speak in acronyms and I'm pretty sure no one else does either. I'm sorry if I seem to be ranting or attacking you (I can assure you I have nothing against you). But this is just very frustrating.--K-UNIT 22:21, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion policy is designed to ensure there is consensus for deletion. The intent is to avoid a single point of view determining what is deleted. The deletion policy specifies the three deletion processes. Speedy deletion has a very limited set of criteria to deal with obvious cases. Articles for deletion (AFD) handles the cases where there is debate over whether something should be deleted. Prod is for the border line cases where deletion might be uncontroversial. However, with prod, anyone can object, and if they do, it is no longer eligible for prod and must go to AFD if the nominator still wants it deleted. Each deletion process has a different time frame, but occasionally administrator tasks get backlogged and it will take a bit longer than the stated time. Also, with prod, if someone objects after it is deleted, the deletion will be reverted.

As for the acronyms, I did link AFD to the page describing it. Also, if you get involved in the process side of Wikipedia, you will find that most people here do speak in acronyms and it will help you to become familiar with the more common ones.

As for this specific article, I do not have an opinion. I have not researched the topic so I am not going to weigh in on whether it should be deleted. I simply came across the topic while closing out prod nominations and saw this one was not illegible for deletion via prod. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 23:11, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As the history shows, the PROD tag was there for more than 5 days with no objection. After that, it is supposed to be deleted, no?--K-UNIT 23:19, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

5 days is a minimum time. If someone objects after that time, it is still a valid objection. If it had been deleted and they then objected, it would still be a valid objection and the article would be restored. -- JLaTondre 23:34, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:Harrysmith.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Harrysmith.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.

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:Non-free content, 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 01:47, 11 October 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nikki311 01:47, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Lords of conquest 01.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Lords of conquest 01.gif. 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 (talk) 17:09, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Rational Skepticism WikiProject member asking for look at Theosophy entry

Since you are an active participant in the Rational Skepticism WikiProject, would you mind looking over the Wikipedia entry on Theosophy to see if you find any concerns?

I've been ordered to fix the page so that it accords with my understanding of the NPOV policy. I'm happy to do that but I have a lot of work at my job.

Now I've been told that I must make the changes by April 30th or the NPOV tag will be removed. I simply can't learn how to use Wikipedia as a newcomer, become familiar with all the sources, and make the edits if I must do it all by April 30th.

Would you look over the Theosophy page? Also, can you recommend anything? Thanks much,Factseducado (talk) 15:22, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:The Twelve Tasks of Asterix.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:The Twelve Tasks of Asterix.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 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 '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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:03, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
