Good luck!
No! It is not correct. Thankyou for bringing it to my attention. Tannin 23:29, 19 Sep 2004 (UTC)
I left a response for your comment on my talk page. Pollinator 02:03, Sep 23, 2004 (UTC)
The page says its from Bikini Science, but I can't find any text that says the image is in the public domain or that it's otherwise compatible with the GFDL. Did you get explicit permission to use this image on Wikipedia? Regardless, it'd be great if you could add an image copyright tag to the image. Thanks! -- David Iberri | Talk 18:26, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC)
I noticed your change of grass snake to ringed snake in Common toad. I know there is a stud article called ringed snake, but I have never in 42 years heard them described as anything but grass snakes in the UK (and I have had them as pets), so I think most British readers would find the term confusing. And as the only English speaking country where the snake is native is the UK I think we should go with the usual British name. I will take my argument over to the Ringed Snake page when I get the chance! Billlion 22:48, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC)
NO, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT HE IS STIPE. All my life I've been pronouncing it Stripe. On www.ateaseweb.com (Radiohead site which frequently mention St(r)ipe) I see him as Stripe. Even I think that on www.nme.com he is known as Stripe. I didn't do it just to fuck with the tread. I did it with an itention to correct this "mistake". If I'm mistaken - ok, it's me. I fuck it up. But don't bann me because one blunder. I'm not a wanker... I'm doing my best about Radiohead, Oasis, Blur and britpop overall...
Hi. You've helped with the Wikipedia:WikiProject Wiki Syntax, so I thought it worth alerting you to the latest and greatest of Wikipedia fixing project, User:Yann/Untagged Images, which is seeking to put copyright tags on all of the untagged images. There are probably, oh, thirty thousand or so to do (he said, reaching into the air for a large figure). But hey: they're images ... you'll get to see lots of random pretty pictures. That must be better than looking for at at and the the, non? You know you'll love it. best wishes -- Tagishsimon (talk)
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man ( comment| talk)
Hi! I read your question about creating subpages at Wikipedia:Help desk#Subpages don't work. As I have posted there, creating a subpage to the list you mentioned works just fine for me. You might want to try again and if unsuccessful, to describe your actions in detail. Good luck. -- Plek 10:07, 5 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Good evening. On 23 Jan, you nominated List of music videos: A for deletion. I just closed the discussion on that article by redirecting it to the original article. In your nomination, you noted the problem with forks in articles. I agree. However, I prefer to solve them with redirects. A big part of why I prefer to solve them that way is that a redirect does not require a VfD vote nor an adminstrator to take action.
In your nomination, you noted that there seem to have been more of these popping up. If you are so inclined, I believe you could use Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of music videos: A as a precedent/justification to be bold and redirect the others as appropriate. Thanks. Rossami (talk)
There is at least one other photograph in that series handing around somewhere, which shows clearly that the man is fellating himself and not a penis dildo or another man. -- Tony Sidaway| Talk 15:19, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
SORRY for editing volcanos.

Please note that I have disputed the neutrality of this article. Jguk reverted my NPOV template, claiming that the NPOV dispute is just a personal campaign of one person. Whig 09:52, 15 May 2005 (UTC)
The images you list were taken from Ron's site which permits this for non-commercial and educational purposes. If that is not adequate, please delete them. the Dalmatian Pelican is a copyright free image from 777life, probably not tagged since it is a larger version of an image that may have now gone?? jimfbleak 04:50, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
You are right, I have started Crimson article 2 years ago and a Cochineal by-product has resulted. I don't remember where the questioned image came from nor what is the license. I have removed that image from cochineal article. I think it is right to delete this image now
The links to Buy.com are one sentence excerpts from reviews and are pointless. I don't want to get into a revert war, but any superior additions of mine that are reverted will be changed back. It seems to me you're just getting sore because your efforts were improved upon. BGC 15:22, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
I can see that there might be a problem with Ron Eggert's images, since his terms for use may not be totally in line with GNFU. Do what you want with those.
I can't see why the Liz Leyden images are a problem. At the time I downloaded them, her site waived copyright on the images, with just a request not to link and therefore steal her bandwidth -surely this must be puplic domain by any criteria? jimfbleak 05:48, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
I actually preferred Image:BonaparteGull23.jpg to some others and it included an immature bird as well. Enough said. On Image:Larus philadelphia, California.png, why did you bother converting it to .png when .jpg is the prefered format for photographs? -- Big_Iron 10:17, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
hi Hapsiainen, i assume your vote is for delete, so i've appended that to your comment. (well technically i suppose i've pre-pended it :P) please correct this if i am wrong and i apologize if you did not want me to do this. i've continued the discussion there rather than here so that everyone can read it. cheers.

As I'm still a newbie to Wikipedia, I'm just wondering...
Why did you remove the See Also links just because they were already in the text?
I can imagine myself going into a text and just wanting to find further reference without needing to read the whole text to be able to do that. And those links you've removed are good references.
Sorry to sound bitchy, but I may be missing something here, and I wish to know. :)

I don't know what this template revert war is about, but I'm seeing it happening on a number of articles. Please resolve this problem through discussion (or provide a link to an ongoing discussion) or I'm going to start locking all of these articles. I have left the same message for BGC. Gamaliel 20:54, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
On the suggestion of an admin, I'm preparing an RfC regarding user:BGC (formerly user:PetSounds), particularly with regard to his conduct in recent disputes. Assuming I can draft a reasonable statement, would you be willing to certify an RfC? I'm not asking for a binding commitment, but simply an indication that you believe it's appropriate to bring the dispute up to this level. Monicasdude 22:49, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
I wasn't referring to you. I was referring to him. That ID number (from one of the R.E.M. article reverts) is his own. And it's not the first time he's used it. BGC 23:04, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
Here's the contributions page for the alternate user name: [5]. I know how this guy works. Trust me - it's intentional. BGC 03:20, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

I was under the assumption that rivers were not exactly places. It's not 'Multiple-geography names' it's 'Multiple-place names'. Rivers were on the normal disambiguation pages when I started, so I was just going by precedent. At any rate, I didn't go through everything of mine you removed, but the first one I checked was Baranof - which if you'll check, disambiguates to both place-names and a non-geographic page, so it's not a pure multiple-place name disambiguation page.
If you can cite something other than your opinion I'll be happy to change my ways... but I don't really think I'm doing anything wrong. -- W.marsh 19:00, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Since you have taken an interest in links. Please be kind enough to vote for my new bot application to reduce overlinking of dates where they are not part of date preferences. bobblewik 20:31, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Dear Hap—you may be interested in putting your name to, or at least commenting on this new push to get the developers to create a parallel syntax that separates autoformatting and linking functions. IMV, it would go a long way towards fixing the untidy blueing of trivial chronological items, and would probably calm the nastiness between the anti- and pro-linking factions in the project. The proposal is to retain the existing function, to reduce the risk of objection from pro-linkers. Tony 15:04, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Forster's Tern.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:Image:Forster Tern.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[Image:Forster Tern.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. -- Erwin85Bot ( talk) 06:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Aix galericulata, Hannover.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.
