Rolling Stone Album Guide

Sorry if the grammar changes were incorrect, in school they always taught me to either use all past tense or all present tense when describing something for instance. He was a very nice man and he gives his time to charity. It makes more sense if it were either He is a very nice man and gives his time to charity or He was a very nice man and gave his time to charity, it just sounds better if they have the same tense that's why I did it, for the changing of the old volumes of the guide, I thought of it like when comparing something that became outdated.

If you look into a history text book it would say "Germany was founded by Prussians" not "Germany is founded by Prussians." If Germany was founded in 1871, It's not saying that the Prussians no longer founded it once its say "was" its just that that happened in the past, use past tense.

If the update of the volume happened in the past it made sense to me to say volume 6 updated volume 5 instead of volume 6 updates volume 5. Say the update of volume 5 by 6 happened this year then it would be more commonly used as "is" because its so recent.

The events happened in the past I'm just using past tense towards them, one updated one 30 years ago its just natural to want to give it past tense.

My flashlight was made in China or My flashlight is made in China, both are acceptable in this case, which is what I now think the Rolling Stone Guide situation is like, both ways they're acceptable.

Its not worth fighting over grammar so if you still think that my logic doesn't' make sense then go ahead and revert whatever edits you think I screwed up, Its not that big of deal.

On the album review guide, I'm sorry about changing the definition of the stars, you can immediately change those back if they're quotes from Rolling Stone, I just tried to make them less confusing because half the reviews say "a record" and then describes characteristics and then the second part says "records" so they switch from using single to plural, I was just trying to make it the same, either saying "records' or "a record" every time but I didn't know that those were exact quotes so I made a mistake, sorry.

Anyways to sum it all up, change whatever you feel necessary and where I made an error, I was just trying to help and I hope above I explained my logic well enough to try and convince you that I had good intentions and in my mind it made sense but I see where I might have made mistakes if you look at it differently, thanks for giving me a heads up before editing it and you have my permission to do whatever with what I wrote, Thank you -- Patman2648 18:23 22 March 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Idaho

There is a new Wikiproject for Idaho. Hopefully the project will coordinate the creation and editing of articles related to the US State Idaho, its cities, sites, history, etc. It aims primarily to expand Wikipedia's resources on Idaho and present the state in a fair and accurate manner. Check it out. You can leave a message on the WPIDAHO talk page or on my talk page --Robbie Giles 16:16, 4 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Allanshermanpublicity.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Allanshermanpublicity.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 13:10, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:FT Waiting.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:FT Waiting.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 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 '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.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Pryor something.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Pryor something.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of The Goldmine Comedy Record Price Guide

The article The Goldmine Comedy Record Price Guide has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NBOOK or WP:GNG

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
