adminship
[edit]Hey. I've noticed some of your edits, and I think you have gone a great job at Wikipedia thus far. That being said, I was wondering if you would consider running for adminship over at WP:RFA. I'll gladly nominate you if you wish to take the plunge. Let me know of your reply :)--Wizardman 00:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Alright. In the meantime, do a bit of XfD participation, there's a handful of admins who jump over people who don't have much there. As for the online symbol, there's a program for it, lemme try and find it in my monobook and I'll put it on yours.--Wizardman 03:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
Jonathon Band and userboxes
[edit]Hi, thankyou for reviewing the Band article, its been waiting quite a while! I have made the changes you suggested and replied them one by one on the talk page. I have however not done the inline citations as I do not agree with them. Under current WP:WIAGA criteria inline citation templates are not neccessary for GA. The criteria states that they are preferable for longer articles but are not required. Inline citation templates are a matter of personal or article preference - Wikipedia:Citation templates and they are not required by WP:CITE and are neither encouraged nor discouraged by any other Wikipedia citation guidelines.. Please feel free to change them yourself but it is not GA necessary. I believe that your other points have been answered. Thanks again.LordHarris 21:25, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
BTW, looking on your userpage I noticed you were able to count how many people used your userboxes. Could you please tell me how you do this? Thanks! LordHarris 21:35, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- I have addressed the other points you raised and commented on the lack of information in regards to parents, countries etc. Thanks for telling me about the userbox count, Ill give it a go tommorow! If you still have concerns about the Band article, drop me another message. Thanks again. LordHarris 23:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
- Just to say thank you for fixing those remaining spaces and for your comments to reach GA.

Thanks for you comments. I have addressed most of your concerns. I have made some comments on the talk page a couple of confusing points, especially when there are a clear references. The JPStalk to me 10:59, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Upgrading info
[edit]Hi, I'm on a wiki-break due to technical problems, but soon I will have my new computer and will join you. What you are looking for is Template:Upgrading needed. Yes, it sounds good about free images. I think we should make project pages for further upgrading info instead of fighting it with templates. If you think templates are better, ask PhantomS. I'm neutral. Hoverfish Talk 22:34, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
Rock Springs Massacre
[edit]I was wondering if you might lend some outside eyes to Rock Springs Massacre which I am soon to nominate for FA. It needs some input and copy editing from unaffiliated eyes as I have undertaken a major overhaul since its promotion to GA. My progress is charted on the talk page so you may want to check that out to avoid redundancy. If you don't have the time or whatever that's cool too. Thanks. IvoShandor 12:03, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Chris Young GA on Hold
[edit]I have addressed almost all of your concerns for Chris Young (baseball pitcher). My editing was unusually extensive for a GA on hold due to the conflicting subsequent GA review also found on the talk page. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 22:18, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Thegoldencompassmp.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Thegoldencompassmp.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).
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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. -Panser Born- (talk) 06:53, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Years in film
[edit]Hi, there is a user, Banacek555, who is doing some changes in 2000 in film. As a result he had removed the year's Films released in 2000 section. The new system is full of thumbs, and the per date release have colorful months and images. I wish this could be discussed, as the series is huge, the images are in fair use only if used in the film article and the year's releases have taken me months to set up. By the way, Blofeld followed by Aussiepete are also making lists containing images (Argentine and Australian). I am still having problems with being on line to discuss extensively and to research in detail the goings-on. Can you please check if the use of images as done in these 3 lists is within fair use? Else we have to interfere before this spreads too far. Thanks. Hoverfish Talk 15:04, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

SIM
[edit]Thanks for the review on Space Interferometry Mission, mostly those appear to be pretty easy fixes, I will take care of them asap, thanks for not failing it, you could have. IvoShandor 11:10, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- Concerns addressed, I do believe. I made a few comments on the talk page too. The images are a great thing for these types of articles, gotta love federal government, public domain images. I really don't like to use fair use, I prefer free, and not as in beer. IvoShandor 12:47, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- Good luck with finals, I always hated that week. An astrobiology class huh? Very cool. I don't know, you are probably aware of NASA's Astrobiology program. IvoShandor 15:58, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
- Further comments addressed (I have the day off today) Don't worry about being "nitpicky" I can't believe I missed so much copy editing stuff, just seen the article too much myself is all. Thanks for the thorough review, I appreciate it. IvoShandor 20:45, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
(undent)Thanks, I am glad you enjoyed the article and my conversations with myself are what keep me going. haha. You should've seen the one on the Rock Springs Massacre page before some other editors showed up to offer input. Thanks again for the review, the stuff you pointed out was really helpful as I simply glossed right over it, I hope to take the SIM article to FA after I do that with Rock Springs. Thanks again.

[edit]Thanks for assessing this article. I'll bear what you said in mind and hopefully take it to peer review soon. Thanks --Belovedfreak 18:55, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
We'd like to access your services again if possible?
[edit]Howdy Nehrams2020 - trust you are enjoying some fine San Diego weather (have been there & would love to go back). Some time ago you were kind enough to provide a GA review on Riverina which assisted us greatly in reaching that grade. We (generally the same editors) have been working on the article concerning the main city in the Riverina area Wagga Wagga over the past few weeks and think it is ready for a set of third party eyes. If you were able to provide us with a GA review on this article it would be much appreciated. Best wishes --VS talk 07:46, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
- Lovely - thank you.--VS talk 08:31, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks Nehrams2020 - my wagga wagga wiki colleagues and I will get to these final list of suggestions and then submit. Having assisted in reviewing a couple of GA and GA potential articles recently I also appreciate the prompt to actually add my name to Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles and will join up immediately after posting this message.--VS talk 23:54, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationales for GA nommed articles
[edit]Okay, so the images to which I believe you are referring are some book cover images and the like. As I understand it, such cover images fall under fair use if they are used for discussion about the book, DVD, etc. Is there some special way in which you are suggesting that I indicate this rationale or are you thinking that this rationale isn't good enough? Let me know how you think I ought to proceed. Cheers, DickClarkMises 18:24, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
- Disregard my previous comment. I found Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline. Thanks, DickClarkMises 18:57, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Drew Carey Show category
[edit]Whether the category should end up recreated (assuming it's deleted) would depend on what articles get written. To warrant a category, a subject would need to have multiple articles that are not easily interlinked with each other through the texts of the articles. In most instances, articles relating to a TV series are easily interlinked through the show's article and each other and a category isn't needed. Otto4711 00:29, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

The Rescuers article
[edit]Alright, I've added rationales for all images save for one and that's the one advertising the upcoming special edition DVD. I don't know what to add to that image and have not been able to find any examples, could you help me? I've also added references for the two theories on the controversy section; one of them isn't what we'd consider "reliable", but we're talking about theories about something that has never been fully explained and by random people, so good references are not likely to be found. T.W. 20:06, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
- Very well, I'll keep working on the article and I will try to sort out the trivia section and place each statement under a different section, I'll also work on "blending" the bullet points into paragraph form. Thanks for your help! T.W. 20:38, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:1408 poster.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:1408 poster.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. 07:05, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

About your suggestions to Kung Fu Hustle
[edit]Per your suggestions to the article, I've added the fair use rationale to the movie poster and moved 2 refs past the puunctuation marks. So, I think it should be ready for promotion to GA. Thanks.--Kylohk 08:47, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
I addressed almost all of your concerns I think. There are one or two I can't think of ways ot fix yet. Incidentally, thanks for putting it on hold I didn't realize how many grammatical errors and spelling mistakes were in there, I should have looked it over more thoroughly. Quadzilla99 13:08, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, I addressed more should be close. Have a look. Quadzilla99 13:54, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
I have addressed what can be address ed with the GA issues you had. I could not find a free image of her, but did add an external link picture and the FBI logo to spruce it up. As to the redlinks, I only removed a couple as all the others are people who meet WP:BIO and thus should have articles (especially the cop as he was already a local hero before he died and left a family of nine of which several children became cops). Let me know if everything looks good. Thank you. Aboutmovies 21:57, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Halton Castle
[edit]Many thanks for your helpful review of the article on Halton Castle. Sorry about the typos. I have responded to the first 8 points here. Point 9 refers to the grading of listed buildings by English Heritage. Grade II* lies between Grade I and Grade II and refers to buildings that are of more than local interest. Best wishes. Peter I. Vardy 10:57, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
Real Irish Republican Army GA
[edit]Made most of the changes you suggested. I eventually went with the first infobox, because the second one was problematic, as the field for which conflict they participated in is mandatory and I lack the technical prowess to create an infobox without it. The problem is that technically the period of the Troubles ended in April 1998, and there isn't a simple term available for the current phase of history in Northern Ireland apart from Northern Ireland peace process, and they are very much not a participant in the process.
I'm now thinking that the "Objectives" and "Origins" sections may need swapping round. Previously the "Objectives" section had to come first, as it made little sense to document their actions without first explaining why they were doing what they were doing and what they sought to achieve. However now the "History" section has been split up it's possible to move things round slightly, but I thought I'd get your opinion first to be on the safe side. On the subject of the new sections any problems with the names of the headings let me know.
Images are tricky, because as you can probably imagine free ones are nigh on impossible to achieve. There are images available which may constitute fair use, for example the ones in these news stories - [1] [2] [3]. However I'm not sure if any of them are absolutely essential to the article and can be justified, so I'm wary of simply adding images for the sake of adding images. Any advice on this would be gratefully received. Thanks. One Night In Hackney303 14:02, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit]Great work on getting it up and running. I've seen a lot of reviews done, and I've already done one. Hopefully this backlog will completely go thanks to this initiative. *gives cookies* G1ggy! 01:57, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Film lists and front pages features=
[edit]Hey the number of film or film related articles on the front page in the last few weeks has been outstanding!! Frustratingly Casino Royale has been about 9 weeks FA nomination but they won't pass it - after the clear consensus last time the FA official restarted -its very annoying indeed. -Goldeneye is also up but I don't know if it is strong enough yet. Anyway I have added a new side template to the years in film which I feel are much more useful than those untidy year related plates. I hope everyone likes them. where is Hoverfish? Its very quiet without him. The film lists are starting to form very well:
UK, France, Spain and Italy and Argentina are developing well. Hope you are well and not facing too many exams. All the best and loook forward to hearing from you ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 14:40, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Peru GAC
[edit]Hello, thanks for your review of the Peru article. I have made some edits to address your concerns, could you check it again to see if it is compliant now? BTW, any suggestions for taking it to FA level? Thanks again. --Victor12 15:09, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Thank you for your GA review of the Type Ia supernova article. I've attempted to address the outstanding issues. If you could take another look it would be appreciated. — RJH (talk) 18:42, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
I think that you must have been referring to footnotes when you quick failed my GA nomination "due to a lack of inline citations". By my count there are at least 45 inline citations throughout the article in the Harvard referencing style, corresponding to the 29 listed references at the bottom. While a few statements could probably do with a citation, I feel the amount of referencing in this article is comparable to other articles that have achieved GA status. Could you please take another look?--DO11.10 19:36, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
- It is no problem, I figured that is what happened, thank you for your offer to re-review it. I did note a few places where a reference could be added, I shall do that quickly now, would you mind holding off for at least a few hours? (if you had planned to review it now?).
- Some background on the article that might interest you when reviewing: 1) I translated this article from the German version, about half of the references came from that article, others were online references that I found myself. 2) The original German version used Harvard citations so I stuck with that. 3) I had considered switching to footnotes, but many of the original references included page numbers, it is not so easy (in my opinion) to work with page numbers in the footnote format, so again I left them as they were.
- I look forward to your comments. I will let you know when I have finished referencing the few lonely bits. Cheers--DO11.10 21:59, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! I think I've addressed all of your concerns. Could you take a look when you get a chance? Thanks again!--DO11.10 03:19, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

doublechechecking GA drive shtuff
[edit]You don't have your email enabled. :/ You may wanna double-check all aspects (fair use rationale and.. oh just look...) of the GAC drive reviews of Beelzebub (Sand Land) and The Preuss School UCSD. -- Ling.Nut 02:34, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale
[edit]I looked over some other education GA and their school symbol (e.g. Image:Chicago Seal.PNG) but I don't get where is the fair use rationale. OhanaUnited 06:21, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- Do you mean fair use rationale like this one Image:Hamden tornado.jpg? It says "No free alternative is available, this outbreak occurred 18 years ago, and a free image is unlikely to be found." OhanaUnited 06:42, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- I added bits of FUR to Image:Preuss Logo1.gif. I can't think of anything else to add to that. OhanaUnited 06:55, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Gotta add my question to the mix too. Where exactly in the A&M article do we not use an image appropriately? Please be specific because we thought we covered all the bases with this article a long time ago. — BQZip01 — talk 07:36, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
- Addressed on the Texas A&M University discussion page. Are these sufficient? Please respond over there. — BQZip01 — talk 08:02, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
Tepper School fair use rationale
[edit]Hi, saw your comment on the tepper school discussion pages regarding the fair use of the images. It is my understanding that in order for an image to meet fair use, it must first give a description of its copyright status (or lack thereof), as well as describe what purpose it serves in the article. For the images I, and others, have included in this article, we have given detailed descriptions of the copyright status (none are copyrighted, all are attribution license). In addition, each image has a description underneath it demonstrating what it adds to the article. Is there a particular image that is questionable? Let me know when you have a chance, thanks PadreNuestro 01:35, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
- Saw your comment, I thought those would have automatically passed since they were logos. I will make that fact VERY clear so as to clean up any confusion. Also, in regards to the Merton Miller photo, I'll dig into it more. Its a busy week so it might not get done until Friday or Saturday. PadreNuestro 02:57, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Casino Royale
[edit]Yep - a disastrous nomination in the piepline since early April. The first nomination clearly showed the overwhelming support including from yourself, but it was restarted but very odd reasons and now the consensus isn't so clear chiefly because User:Sandy Georgia continues to oppose trivially. I haven't toucched the artiicle for over a month - it is a great article but not officially an FA yet. -still! Hope you are not bogged down with too much uni study, -shame about our core film images being deleted - the film reels - however I was discussing with Wise Kwai that it might give us a good chance to create some public domain cool new ones. I really wish Hoverfish would return and fix his computer!!! ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Expecting you" Contribs 10:36, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

John Wayne

It looks terrifc in my view - perhaps a little too detailed -normally I wouldn't approve for it being on more than one page but in this case I think it works. What do you think. I have also started the List of American films - a huge task but I hope will become a great resource for films -anyone who can help even if it is adding a few details every day would be great.

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Knockedupmp.jpg, by Throw (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Knockedupmp.jpg fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason:
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Knockedupmp.jpg, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page.

Wood Thrush GA
[edit]I've addressed the issues you listed on the talk page. Cheers, Corvus coronoides 23:59, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- Having heavily edited the above article since it was GA'd, I'm surprised that grammar seems not to be a criterion. This article veered wildly from singular to plural, often within the same sentence, and surely should have been cleaned up first. This isn't a criticism of User:Corvus coronoides, who has done a great deal of work, but is endemic to articles about NAm birds. It's not a criticism of you either, I'm just surprise that the rules are so lax. Jimfbleak 07:14, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
