[edit] Future history scan
Hi Morgan; I noticed the scan of Image:Future history 01.jpg from Heinlein. Unfortunately I don't think the copyright has expired -- Heinlein only died 20 years ago, and I think Wikipedia's policy is 100 years. Anyway, before I put a copyright problem tag on, I thought I'd check with you to see if you have a reason I don't know about to believe that the copyright has expired. Let me know on my talk page if there's something, otherwise I'll probably tag it for someone to look at in the next day or two. Thanks. Mike Christie 02:46, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
- I will be the first to admit to a great deal of confusion on the whole copyright issue. I am not in the US and as such am not conversant with US copyright law. I know that in my country this image would be able to be used as fair use - as I believe wikipedia would constitute educational use and because it is a tiny part of the entire published work i.e. it is one page of a 256 page book, and also as public domain - as it is 80 years since it was published. I suggest you tag the image and get someone who knows a lot more about this than I do to settle this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[edit] Mediation of Dion Fortune
I've taken this mediation case; please feel free to ask me to give it up to someone else if you feel that I'm unsuitable. Before I begin, I'd like to clarify that there isn't any evidence on you to be presented. Now, I'm not accusing you of anything and please do not take it in a hostile way, but I need to be sure that anything like this won't come to light later on in the process. Please respond on my talkpage; thanks. —Xyrael / 20:23, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- All I'm asking is that if I asked the ip for evidence, what would he post? If you are able to do that, you show great responsability(SP?). —Xyrael / 15:10, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
-
- All the evidence is in the history of the pages in question. I am not sure what else I can tell you apart from what I have already posted to the Dion Fortune mediation page. Have you reviewed the history of the pages in question? Shall I repair the damage the user has done to the history pages?
- Morgan Leigh 15:29, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Not a problem - it'd be great if you could give me some diff links too. Thanks. —Xyrael / 15:36, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
- Please see the discussion on Dion Fortune mediation. It would be great if we could keep all the discussion one one page.

67.185.57.48 please do not continue to delete, or edit other user's posts on talk pages. I have requested mediation regarding this issue and I request that you do not edit this page or my user talk page any more until mediation is undertaken.

Do not excessively revert edits on the basis that it is a differing opinion. Do not post speculation. Do not post historically baseless nonsense. Do not use Wikipedia to create fanpages. More reverts without cause.
Posting personal information about other users of Wikipedia is an attempt to assasinate their credibility (Wikistalking).
DO NOT post my ISP address without my permission!
Mr. Leigh, I have tried to reason with you in order to show you a different point of view because the Dion Fortune page clearly reflects your admiration for her. However, if you continue posting my ISP address without my permission, I will consider legal recourse. Just because my ISP address is listed in the history, DOES NOT give you the right to repost it.
I have been the target of hackers in the past, but that doesn't mean that I'm just gonna crawl under a rock and die. I still have a right to communicate on the internet, but your actions are jeopardizing that. Please cease and decist.

- At present, the user is blocked for 6 weeks, since they made use of a mass of sockpuppets while blocked initially. --InShaneee 16:58, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Society of Inner Light
Hi, many thanks for welcoming my suggestion at Dion Fortune. Furthermore, please look at The Society of Inner Light: I reverted the deletion that the author him/herself has done. I am not able for now to check the factual verifiability of the information, so please accept my apologies if I did something wrong. --''clearcontent'' a.k.a. '''Doktor Who''' 03:19, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- That page does contain some erroneous information and some parts of it have been lifted verbatim from other websites. I will put it on my list of things to improve...

[edit] Help with Latin
Hello, could you give a look at Per capita, Per capita income, relevant talk/history pages and my talk page? I assert that the original form is 'pro capite, as I can find in a number of books here at my home. --''clearcontent'' a.k.a. '''Doktor Who''' 03:10, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- I have done a bit of research and added my comments to the per capita and per capita income pages.

[edit] Hello
Just to let you know, I removed Category:Occult after making Category:Kabbalah as subcategory of Category:Occult. As I am sure you know, an article should not also be in a supercategory of its approriate subcategory. -999 (Talk) 19:09, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for clearing that up for me. I wasn't aware that Kabbalah was a sub category of occult. Sorry.

I was blocked with the stated reason that my IP is a TOR exit node. In fact it is not. I did email Raul654 but got no response. You can check if an IP is a TOR exit node at the TOR key directory at http://moria.mit.edu:9031/tor/ my IP address is 88.198.252.148 and it is not listed at the above URL, therefore it is not a TOR exit node. Is it perhaps the case that wikipedia is only adding IP's to a list of alledged TOR exit nodes instead of checking regularily against the key registry? It is not the case that once a TOR node always a TOR node. Thanks. Morgan Leigh 08:58, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi (I am not an admin). Your IP, 88.198.252.147 according to the message is listed as being gwde4mmx at [1] (unfortunately the page and the page you provided both seem to be down at the moment). Maybe the page is outdated though. Best of luck! -- lucasbfr talk 13:17, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
In the decline above the reason was that port 80 was open on that IP. This does does not make it a TOR exit node Morgan Leigh 06:47, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
