Fair use image

Hi. This is just a quick note to let you know that I have removed a copyrighted image from your user page. Unfortunately, the fair use criteria restrict copyrighted images for use in articles only. If you have any questions, please let me know. :) Road Wizard 03:07, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. Don't worry about it, there is no harm done, I didn't learn about that policy until a few weeks ago myself.

By the way, you can keep the flag on your page if you want. The flag image is listed as being in the public domain, meaning that you can do whatever you want with it. Sorry if my message above confused you, but it is only copyrighted images that you have to worry about. Road Wizard 03:15, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reason

Please make a sincere effort to retort my query with historical arguments and any tool of ratiocination you please. I won't edit the article, then. Take your time if you need a few days.

I want you to stump me.--04:52, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

removing warnings

The following is copied from my talk page. Ginkgo100 ^{talk · contribs · e@}

I was recently reading your comments on a user's talk page to whom I had given a warning. You told him that removing warnings even once the discussion was over was illegal. I was wondering if I could remove it, since i gave it in the first place, because after a lengthy discussion the user has accepted my comments, completely redrafted his edit, made it not POV and thus enriched the article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mikakasumov (talk • contribs) .

Well, first of all, nothing is "illegal" on Wikipedia except for copyright violations and slander. It can be "bad Wikiquette" or, worse, against policy. The former can get you enemies; the latter can get you in trouble with admins. From my reading, removing warnings on one's own talk page is considered vandalism, and rightly so in my opinion, at least in general. You can read the links I posted on his talk page. As for your question, I'd say the warner can certainly remove a warning if the problem has been rectified, though I've no idea what policy might say on the issue. The issue is with people removing their own warnings, which is sort of like tearing up a traffic ticket -- the cop can do that, but not the speeder! --Ginkgo100 ^{talk · contribs · e@} 20:18, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
