[edit] Thanks for your kind welcome, Dandelion1.

Thanks for your kind welcome. You make some suggestions which are very vague. Want to be more specific? The only specific criticism was that the word clothist is not widely used. Well, I think it's as widely used as many of the others. Besides, we can include rare words, can't we? I'm not sure I'm typing this in the right place. It really should be available for the other contributors to read, shouldn't it? Korky Day Korky Day 08:32, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not move pages by cut and paste

but use the "move" function so as not to destroy the Wikipedia:Page history. I will delete Social nudity now and restore the previous version at Naturism because it appears to be simply copied content. To rename a page like this, I would also advise you should first go seek consensus at Wikipedia:Requested moves. Kusma (討論) 00:38, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

The use of the "move" function (see Help:Move) would also automatically move the talk page and leave appropriate redirects in place. Cut and paste is very confusing. Kusma (討論) 00:43, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] redirect

Strange; you know about redirects enough to redirect your talk page, so why did you do the absolute no-no of copy-and-pasting naturism to social nudity.? -- RHaworth 00:46, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Social Nudity

Please examine recent user contributions by User:Cyndiann. She removed all content from Clothes free movement and Clothes free people and redirected it to article titles with the NPOV term naturism in the title in them, then rewrote the articles using NPOV naturism. Can you please help me get an admin involved this dispute? I'm sorry if I made errors. Where is the best place to discuss this? I'm concerned that any article that is in the middle of an edit/revert/move war could lose the dialogue. Please Please help!!!! Thanks. Dandelion1 01:05, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your help! What can I do about the two other articles? I have requested both of them to be moved back. Thanks! Dandelion1 01:45, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

About the title of Naturism versus Social nudity, I don't want to take a side in this dispute. (Actually, I don't want to take sides in this dispute at all, just trying to repair your cut&paste moves). Wider discussion on that one is maybe not a bad idea. I don't quite understand what the POV involved here is: is it a "naturist" versus "nudist" thing? I'm sorry, I am used to easier questions like whether to use the German or Polish name of some obscure villages in Poland ;-) Kusma (討論) 01:48, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Oh, and the history of Clothes free people was deleted, so if you feel WP:BOLD and are sure that's the right title, you can move the article back there yourself. Kusma (討論) 01:51, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you! Yes, I am very WP:BOLD. Cheers! Thank you so much for your help and patience with people like me!! Re: POV dispute, yes people can create an article on either naturism and nudism and they would be virtually identicle, so it is better to use a more broad term, see the dicussion page on what was Social nudity. My associate, who is the editor at large for Nude and Natural magazine has spent over a year working on an article showing how each country has a different interpretation and usage of those two words. Germany even adds FKK to add to the confusion more. Cheers! Dandelion1 02:06, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Do you know how I change my signature to automatically be Dandelion instead of Dandelion1 when I sign? Thanks! Dandelion1 02:53, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Go to Special:Preferences, check "Raw link" and enter

[[User:Dandelion|Dandelion]]

in the "Nickname" field. Maybe even better would be a signature including talk and contributions links:

[[User:Dandelion]] ([[User talk:Dandelion|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Dandelion1|contribs]])

because your method of redirecting your use page hides your contributions a bit. Hope that helps, Kusma (討論) 03:02, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeehaw!!! Thank you so much! You are so awesome! Cheers! User:Dandelion (talk|contribs) 03:44, 13 April 2006 (UTC) (testing signature)

[edit] Image:PaintedCyclists2005_1.jpg

Based on your other uploads it does not appear that you are the copyright holder of this image. How do we know that "The copyright holder allows anyone to use it for any purpose, provided that copyright holder is attributed."? Have you communicated with the copyright holder? --Gmaxwell 17:57, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes, please refer to my e-mail communication at User talk:Dandelion/Archive 1. Cheers, User:Dandelion (talk|contribs) 00:50, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3RR-warning

I would be carefull to revert to Social nudity again because of violating WP:3RR.KimvdLinde 04:05, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your thoughtful note. So how many reverts do you have left today? User:Dandelion (talk|contribs) 04:08, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Locked out of the wiki

Daniel -

Michael Nedell here - one of the organizers for WNBR Burlington Vermont 06. I am locked out of the wiki, and wanted to put the times and location and such stuff up there. The reason given is, vandalism on photo or something like that. Please help!

My IP address is 69.171.204.199. Please include this address in any queries you make.

Our ride is going to be big this year! I started a myspace for it and have gotten some support from the biking community early, so the word is gettng out there already...

Take care and thanks-

MIchael

[edit] Some advise

I am going to give you some well meant advise (although you might experience this differently). The advise is to leave the Nudism Naturalism etc pages alone for a few days and cool down. There is to much venom in you writing at the moment resulting in personal attacks, and that is not going to work to get a consensus. KimvdLinde 02:25, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Seattle Weekly and Bike Ride

Hi Daniel,

I hope I have your correct email address. I work with Seattle Weekly in the advertising department. I would like to talk to you when you have a moment this week about placing in ad in our paper for the World Naked Bike Ride 2006. Our weekly circulation is 100,000 + and we distribute as far north as Everett and south as Olympia + on the Eastside. My contact information is listed below. Thanks and I look forward to talking to you!

Best,

[edit] Primal Scream

I had nothing to do with organizing it, I just watched it. Good luck! Briancua 02:26, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help?

Will you consider commenting on some AfD nominations and merge-delete propositions that I believe are an attempt to drive off a good editor? (OK, she's my wife. But she's exhausted by this fight; her articles are written in good faith and this editor is making a mockery of WP.)

[edit] Image:VisionsYoga.jpg

I see you have restored Image:VisionsYoga.jpg. This image was previously deleted because the copyright holder demanded others ask for permission to use the image. Has the copyright holder sent a license grant to permissions@wikimedia.org? --Gmaxwell 03:11, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

What does a license grant look like? Thanks. User:Dandelion (talk|contribs) 02:25, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Timeline of non-sexual public nudity

The article was nominated for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Timeline of significant non-sexualized public nudity activities and moved to the current title per the discussion. However, since the article seems to be copied from another source and there's no indication that it's used with permission I blanked it and listed it on Wikipedia:Copyright problems/2006 August 5/Articles. If you hold the copyright to it, or you have permission to use it under the terms of GFDL, please indicate so on the article's talk page and under the article's listing on the aforementioned copyright problems page. Thanks. - Bobet 13:41, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing that up, the page is back to normal now. - Bobet 07:33, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please help

Sorry to bother you, but as an things are getting desperate and I need to appeal to your for help. We are facing a situation where a deletionist admin is free to declare inclusionist arguments "absurd" and ignore them at will. If you don't agree with this situation, please share your opinion here.

[edit] Nudity in combat

Dandelion, I was reviewing articles on combat and came across the Nudity in combat article. To me the topic was nudity in combat. I understand this to be similar to nudity while fighting, which the balance of the article is focused. The topic was not nudity in prison or nudity in humilation and degradation. I deleted the picture of Abu Graihb (sp) and some of the narrative you added recently. Articles need to stay focused on topic and not "bleed" into other topics. Cheers.

[edit] Image:NRT6_2001.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:NRT6_2001.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there 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 its not being deleted. Thank you. —Hornetman16 18:29, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Petra+fishermen.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Petra+fishermen.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Abu badali (talk • contribs) 03:25, 14 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:CFportal.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:CFportal.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. 68.190.119.253 11:08, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture

Thanks for adding the photograph I took of a female model at the World Bodypainting Festival to the body painting article. This is the first time I have seen someone else use images I have created. JIP | Talk 17:44, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Naked yoga photo & Ernesto Bustamante

Daniel,

The photo of the lady doing nude yoga really seems inappropriate as it pertains to yoga. Yes, the pose is a yoga pose, but it's too explicit IMHO (as both a lifelong nudist and a yoga teacher).

Also, I noticed in the history that you added Ernesto Bustamante as a nude yoga teacher in NJ back in December. I can't find any reference to him teaching such classes here.

I've been teaching a nude yoga class for over 3 years here in Morristown, NJ. It started at Sky Farm in Basking Ridge and is now done in my private studio. There is a growing community of people here and I can't find anyone who has heard of Ernesto Bustamante before. Where did that reference come from?

[edit] Cascadia

I've noticed that you have an userbox which points to the Cascadia disambiguation page, instead of pointing to Cascadia (independence movement). You might want to change your userbox. --Pi (π) 10:14, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image:HorsesCM.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:HorsesCM.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there 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. Atom 02:25, 5 February 2007 (UTC) Sorry. No offense intended. I saw that the copyrighted image has been used as fair-use but was not used within fair use. I always send these for deletion so that they won't be mis-used again. Atom 02:26, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mountain Biking on Mount Tamalpais

Hello, An article that I created as a part of Wikiproject Cycling called Mountain Biking on Mount Tamalpais and linked to the Mount Tamalpais article, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mountain Biking on Mount Tamalpais. Thank you, Bob in Las Vegas - uriel8 (talk) 10:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clearly nudity is an area of personal interest for you...

...but that doesn't mean that it should be in every single article you can possibly conceive of working it into. If you feel that strongly about including nude images in the Sun Tanning article, then maybe you should check out the Talk page and speak to the numerous issues raised regarding the image in question (all of which have not been even remotely addressed thus far). I think you're letting your personal interests cloud your judgement, as well as your willingness to enter appropriate discussion of the subject at hand. I'll look forward to hearing from you. Thanks! 70.94.32.98 04:41, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
