User talk:Benlisquare
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Benlisquare! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Ryan. 05:34, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] AMD
Benlisquare, I saw your edit over on AMD (disambiguation), but your addition does not have any links to any other pages in Wikipedia. Disambiguation pages are meant to help people get to where they're trying to go. Are you going to write an article about AMD as a CS clan? - grubber 18:57, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Image Tagging Image:Playgear Pocket.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Playgear Pocket.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 23:23, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] RE: Need sources for "Anti-Japanese sentement" - Popular culture in China. help?
I don't have satellite TV, (and barely have cable for that matter). So I don't usually watch/read Chinese news. I'm far more interested in the ghosts of a bygone era and its forgotten stories of strife and heroism. /melodrama
I have a few poorly-made pseudo-socialist piece-of-crap anti-Japanese flash cartoons that my friends sent to me, if you want. Some pretty interesting photos of the last great anti-Japanese riot (that there are Japanese in China to begin with is an indication of the inconsistency of the application of their "principles"), and a few articles blasting these guys. There are some bao-diao (ie. protect diaoyu dao) groups from HK and ROC with their websites, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.
Nothing official of course. The CPC (Capitalist Party of China), in a dazzling display of saving face and spinelessness, is willing to sell out their people for a few coppers. Some bao-diao websites (that threaten vigilante action) are banned for example, and they lick Japanese boots (clogs, I suppose) hoping to get a morsel from the booming Japanese economy, which, coincidentally, is revitalized ENTIRELY by China.
You probably didn't ask me to rant. So I'll stop. Don't think I can help you there. Besides, I'm not sure what you would qualify as "anti-Japanese" websites. A site which documents Japanese war crimes? That seems to qualify under the criteria of certain people on Wikipedia. Or does it have to spew some pretty vitriolic anti-Japanese venom? -- 我♥中國 15:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
