User talk:Sarahedw
Hello. That's fine, if you send an email from pwconnection2@aol.com to my personal email address (ultrablue at gmail dot com) confirming that you yourself wrote that text, and that you are licensing that copyrighted text under the GNU Free Documentation License (which allows people to freely distribute it and alter it at will) then I would be happy to add your text back into the article. As it was, you were an unregistered, anonymous user submitting a large chunk of unaltered text from a website which says "Copying, redistribution or downloading of any content not offered specifically as a download is strictly prohibited" -- if you think we're supposed to somehow magically know that you are the person who wrote it, then you need a reality check. - Mark 01:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for sending me those confirmation emails. I am adding the material back into the article. - Mark 13:00, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Uploading pictures
[edit]Uploading is easy, just click on the "upload file" link on the left. You might want to spend a little time first reading over the potential licenses at Wikipedia:image license tags. "GFDL-self"is a popular choice. Let me know if you have any problems. Cheers, -Will Beback · † · 00:32, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
- "Fair use" is not a tag you'd want to use. We aren't allowing fair use pictures of living people anymore. -Will Beback · † · 00:56, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Spam in Save Me A Dream
[edit]Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Save Me A Dream, by Kww (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Save Me A Dream is blatant advertising for a company, product, group, service or person that would require a substantial rewrite in order to become an encyclopedia article.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Save Me A Dream, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 00:41, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
