[edit] Category:Images with no copyright tag
Hey, I saw your note on ANB a couple weeks ago. I'd like to help out with the backlog at Category:Images with no copyright tag, but I'm a brand new admin without much image experience, and therefore timid about deleting stuff and whatnot, since I'm afraid I'll mess something up. Do you have any advice about how to proceed? Thanks much, delldot talk 05:12, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks a ton for the awesome advice. I hope you'll let me know if I make any missteps! Peace, delldot talk 15:38, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] close
The least controversial approach might be to simply leave a note at the very top of the page stating in some fashion that the show's over because Jimbo asked Essjay to resign. So further endorsements, commentary, and such should be carefully considered to be sure they'll be productive in light of this event. An actual close is going to be a mess right now, but people would likely respect a gentle suggestion to leave well enough alone. Derex 07:57, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Excellent summary about Essjay
It's too bad we can't place your comment in big bold letters on the top of all the pages discussing this. It really hits the nail on the head. It's the best summary I've heard about the situation so far. -- Ned Scott 02:53, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Indiana Jones
Can you explain why you've removed the old Indiana Jones picture from the Indiana Jones page? You claim it was a redlink - it appears the picture has been deleted - by you? If so for what reason? Mikejstevenson 04:13, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

- Have just confirmed that it was you that deleted the picture. Presumably you are planning to delete every other picture in the article as well? The character of Indiana Jones has been portrayed by numerous people, and it's perfectly reasonable (and fair) use to have a picture of each in the article that relates to that character. In the same way, the Jack O'Neill article has a picture of Kurt Russell. In the Batman article, there are pictures of both Adam West and Christian Bale.
If you're adamant that, in your view, the Elderly Indiana Jones picture has no place in the article about the character, I really don't see why a picture of Harrison Ford should be there either. After all, the article is about the character, not the films. The way I see this, you have two options.
a) be reasonable, replace the picture. b) Delete every single picture in the article (and then go about vandalising every other character article on Wikipedia in the same way).
Which is it going to be?Mikejstevenson 04:28, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

- OK - now I understand. People like you are actually detrimental to this site - a drain to the community. You contribute nothing - in fact, less. You're not interested in discussion, neither are you interested in justifying your decisions. You couldn't care less about having any logical reason for your actions, neither do you feel it necessary to be open to being questioned about them. You are nothing more than a vandal - the only difference being that you actually seem to enjoy being open about it.

You know perfectly well that your action has invalidated a section of the article, without good reason. You know perfectly well that I have a valid point, but, being the person you are, you take pleasure from the fact that you aren't forced to listen.
Never mind. Enjoy the rush this vandalism gives you. Mikejstevenson 05:18, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Look Teke, say whatever you like, but the bottom line is this - if you think it's not fair use to include a picture of a portrayer of a character within the article about that character, then you've got a lot of work to do. Can I suggest you start by deleting any pictures of Roger Moore from the James Bond page? Mikejstevenson 06:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] My question in the Admins' noticeboard
Hello,
Thank you for answering me in the admins' noticeboard about my question. I apologize for having put the question there, I didn't know where to put it. I will do as you suggest: create the modifed article in my own userspace, then ask for the others contributoirs if they agree with the new version. Then I'll propose it as a featured article.
The article I want to rewrite is about Rene Guenon.
Thanks again,

[edit] Thanks
Thanks for improving my userpage. - Gilliam 07:18, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Move request of Karlovy Vary
The result of the proposal was no consensus, not moved. is nor correct, 15:5 is consensus to keep. That statement might force somebody to think there was no consensus and try to move it again. ≈Tulkolahten≈≈talk≈ 11:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Who/whom
Glad we got that [1] straightened out. Christopher Jost 15:52, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Images
Hey. Thanks for the offer to help, but they're all tagged. I'm not sure why you're removing some of the tags, such as PUI-disputed; we need to be able to demonstrate that an image is actually in the public domain, not just assume it is because it looks old, and it needs to be sourced in any case. Can you explain why you're doing that? Jkelly 01:19, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, are you planning on deleting them all? I was just going to leave them in the various deletion queues I put them in. Jkelly 01:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD
Hi Teke, this is a message I'm posting to everyone who participated in this AfD. I have nominated the same article for deletion again here – you might be interested. Regards, KissL 09:00, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] RfA nomination
Thanks for nominating me. I added my answers. The page needs only to be transcluded in RfA. --Meno25 19:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] My RfA
- Thanks for voting in my RfA. I've decided to withdraw my acceptance because of real WP:CIVIL concerns. I will try again later when I've proven to myself and others that my anger will no longer interfere with my abilities as a Wikipedia editor. Thanks again, and I'll see you around here shortly. :) JuJube 04:44, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
