[edit] 28/3/05

Why is it that non-neutral facts against Israel are not POV and neutral facts in third person point of view giving both sides are POV? You should either give both sides or have 2 seperate articles. Your Anti-Israel views or so hypocrtical. When I write so-called "POV" views I try to make it neutral giving both sides not taking sides but you think being NPOV automatically means Arabs are right and Israel is wrong.

I don't see how changing Baruch Goldstein to remove all instances of "massacre" and changing references of Hebron as a Palestinian city to a "mostly Arab populated" one is you making the viewpoint more balanced as opposed to spreading pro-Israeli propaganda, but you can believe what you want.--FarQPwnsJoo 06:03, 28 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Aotearoa is at stake

Wikipedia Maori needs you, bro!

Two months ago I thought you might be the shot in the arm that it deserved, but not yet eh? You can surely give us a few words about mi:Waikato and mi:Akarana. Or get your classmates and teachers onto it?

E noho ra. Robin Patterson 08:30, 10 May 2005 (UTC) (This message will not self-destruct)

[edit] Source needed for Image:Tieinterceptor.jpg

Hi FarQPwnsJoo, I tagged this image with the {{no source}} tag because it currently does not list any source information. Can you please provide a source for this image (URLs would be preferable) so that we can appropriately tag the image? Thanks, — EagleOne\^Talk 03:30, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image Tagging Image:FN Scar Light.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:FN Scar Light.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is 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-self}} 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. Stan 04:00, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Persian people#History

Could you take a look at the first sentence in this section? It claims that Persians are descendants of some "Aryan tribes" migrating from Central Asia. Sounds like outdated racial theories to me. The same source (Britannica) says Persians are of mixed ancentry, but when I try to add this in people remove it. I don't think this is consistent with WP:NPOV. Could you take a look at this and leave a comment? Thanks, Aucaman^Talk 06:44, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Megadeth logo chrome.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Megadeth logo chrome.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.
