[edit] Uploading of photos of WIS highways
I was confronted by another user (see photos my talk page) about "poor quality photos" being on Wikipedia articles - and also there seems to be a consensus against photo galleries in WP:USRD. Just to let you know about it. An optimal solution to this would be to move the images to Wikimedia Commons, then apply {{Commons}} or {{Commonscat}}. The CC sharealike license is allowed in Commons so I don't see any problem - but they will have to be transwikied over. If any questions, let me know thanks -- master_sonTalk - Edits 21:56, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Ouch! I found their discussion, and the discussion appears to be over. There are close to 100 images that would need to be reuploaded, which would take many DAYS. I wish that I could get help from someone with a super lightning fast internet connection. Royalbroil T : C 12:37, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'll help out where I can over the next few days - I have a copy of the Commonist app. I'll make sure to maintain the same license and credit you as the source. -- master_sonTalk - Edits 04:16, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Please add any images that I took to the Commons category Commons:Category:Files by User:Royalbroil from en.wikipedia. Also add them to Category:Cities in Wisconsin if appropriate. My class schedule prevents me from doing much Wikipedia in the first half of the week. Royalbroil T : C 13:21, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Banjo Matthews
Hey. I started an article on him, so if you still have that photo of him, we can add it now. Recury 18:14, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] User:Fatwhales
I just checked the block log, and all his sockpuppets have been blocked. We can drop the WP:SSP case now. :D. Retiono Virginian 18:44, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Note: I was looking through the history of the Kiel city in Wincosin and I found previous vandalism by this user User:Tyler Dhein Who appears to be another sockpuppet of Fatwhales. Who was blocked indef but had vandalised in very similar patterns to him. So, be on alert for more socks, and if this continues should we start a request at WP:RFCU?

[edit] Disambiguation of IndyCar
Hi Royalbroil. I've spot-checked several of your changes and they look fine to me. (I was actually checking them as you went along). I think American Championship Car Racing was quite an appropriate target for most of the links. I also agree that it's OK for some pages to link to the IndyCar disambiguation page. Thanks for your efforts. DH85868993 05:36, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
