SPA

Don't worry too much about the SPA tag. Closing admins do due diligence on things like that and it will come out in the wash. That user was being a little bit strident about it, but answering in kind doesn't help any. (No admin would miss those things even if you didn't comment.) Let it be water off a duck's back and all that—remember, it's never personal even if people try to make it so, it's only about the quality of the articles.

Thanks for your help and professionalism, Saxifrage. Marriedtofilm 05:01, 21 September 2006 (UTC).[reply]
You're welcome, and thanks for appreciating it. I'm good at giving the "don't worry about the ego" kind of advice because I constantly have to remind myself to do it... — Saxifrage ✎ 05:23, 21 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:US 191 Utah.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:US 191 Utah.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:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 06:07, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

re: Hersh discussion

I found some more of the guidelines and policies and added links to what I'd written in that article talk page earlier. I keep learning more and more about what is ok and so forth as time goes on. I just now realized you've been doing this a while and that you didn't just start editing here with this one music article as a fan; in fact you don't focus on music articles most of the time, so I think that's a good thing. I had a lot of things I was trying to say for the general benefit of future wiki newbies visiting the article (since I may not be editing that article much in the future) but I don't think you fit into that description. Anyway, I just learned a lot by reading the biographies of living persons policy and other guidelines I linked in my previous comments and then tried to make my references to those accurate, but the gist is generally the same. I see that article subjects can participate in wikipedia though, which is interesting. I had always thought they could and then I saw an argument about it on a talk page once some months after I'd started and I was less sure after that. Anyway, the links are just added as reader aids and I was trying to correct my wording; that's all. Emerman 06:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I do find article subjects input interesting. Barring vanity pieces and those who have a posturing agenda (political figures come to mind), I think their analysis of an article can be valued, although, like you, I believe this website should be scrupulously unbiased. Yes, I don't spend alot of time editing music pages, even though I view them alot. I did recently create one music stub, alt country artist Paula Frazer. As I'm not too familiar with this artist, the page can definitely use some expanding. --Marriedtofilm 08:11, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I know the feeling re: Frazer; I'm aware of her work but not that familiar with it. I didn't look at that article yet. Basically it takes a lot of work for me to add something to articles at wikipedia because I generally work hard at adding reference listings for everything I do. And as a result I've come to not have as much time to deal with editing here. I look in occasionally out of concern for vandalism from time to time, but somehow the community here has been really good at stopping most vandalism without my needing to worry. Anyway, thanks for the invite to the frazer article. If I have time to look, I will, but to me it means looking up articles for any addition I would make and I currently am backed up with work. Best wishes on your contributions at wikipedia! Emerman 15:50, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: The Depot at Santa Ana / Santa Ana (Amtrak station)

Well, I didn't create the stub, I just changed the tag from {{train-stub}} to {{US-railstation-stub}}. I'll do the merge shortly... Slambo (Speak) 10:14, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Slambo (Speak) 10:58, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

IEOC at Oceanside

Sorry to change your edit, and i posted this when explaining my revert, but right now 1 round-trip per day runs from SB-Oceanside. Also, 3 Saturday round-trips and 2 Sunday round-trips on the IEOC to Oceanside. Metrolink very seldom updates their line pages. I also updated the IEOC Wiki page as the top said SB-Oceanisde but stations south of SJC were not listed. --PSurfliner 02:40, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On Wikipedia, we always want to cite references and sources for confirmation. I won't automatically doubt that the line serves this station (I have no reason to believe you're making it up), but we do need a reliable source for this information. --Marriedtofilm 02:44, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

RfA thanks and good luck to you

Thank you for participating in my RfA discussion! I appreciate you contributing your voice to the debate and its outcome. I hope how I wield the mop makes you proud. Thanks!

And good luck with your new username. Under whatever name you will re-emerge with, thank you. — Saxifrage ✎ 19:27, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Afd for airline destinations

Someone renominated airline destinations for afd. Since you voted to keep last time, I thought you might be interested. DB (talk) 20:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

New article on Steve Omohundro

I found some new information on Steve Omohundro that was not brough up in the original AFD discussion - 17 publications and a US patent - and thought this significant enough to warrant restoring the article. After restoring it, I made enough edits that I feel it's a new article rather than a restoration (it would have been easier to start from scratch than to restore), so I have removed the CFD tag. However, I wanted to invite you to take a look at the article as you participated in the original AFD discussion. --Zippy 00:09, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
