Thanks for uploading Image:GTVA Logo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. 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. If you have uploaded other fair use 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. -- Durin 17:46, 1 August 2006 (UTC) You're welcome.

Okay, I followed your advice and included the macron in the title. Now I'm going to make all of the following into redirects. Thanks for the help! Haukur 08:58, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for notifying me. Originaly I created them out of boredom but now they have a usage in Axis of Evil and Outposts of tyranny articles. I have moved the images to commons with exact names so you can delete the en.wiki duplicates -- Cat chi? 14:49, 10 August 2006 (UTC) Thanks for uploading Image:Foo Fighter.png. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages 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.

I created http://nl.wikibooks.org/wiki/Sjabloon:Draaipagina2 on wikibooks-NL. At the end I would like it to be that I can create a template {Draaipagina2/Subject} with the code: {{Draaipagina2|Naam=Subject |1=... |2=... |3=... |... |n=...}} Then you can use in the articles just {Draaipagina2/Subject}, and it will give the thing you can find at the buttom of b:nl:Rekenen/Optellen. You can scroll to the next page. To make that possible, I have to tell the template that if N (one of the numbers) is not defined, it shouldn't show the row what starts with the first variable N. Do you know how I could do that? Thanks a lot! effeiets anders 11:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
{{ #switch: ''<comparison value>'' | ''<value<sub>1</sub>>'' = ''<result<sub>1</sub>>'' | ''<value<sub>2</sub>>'' = ''<result<sub>2</sub>>'' | ''...'' | ''<value<sub>n</sub>>'' = ''<result<sub>n</sub>>'' | ''<default result>'' }}
<- Previous module * Subject * Nex module -> See for instance b:nl:template:draaipagina and b:nl:template:draaipagina/Rekenen and b:nl:Rekenen/Aftrekken. With Template:Draaipagina2 I want to simplify the imput at Draaipagina2/Subject. I want to make it in such a way, that the imput can be as I discribed above. That way people who are not *very* good with templates can use it as well, and quicker. The only thing they have to do then is creating Template:Draaipagina2/Subject , define Naam=Subject and define the chapternames, 1 to N. I hope I am more clear now. effeiets anders 15:47, 15 August 2006 (UTC) Please don't restore that bad version of the page which had incorrect insignia, improper references, and false information. It seems the guy who added all that stuff that the Franz manual was God and disregarded all other sources, live action or otherwise. Restoring that page only posts bad information on Wikipedia. - Husnock 14:03, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, I really dropped the ball on getting back to you. Hope life's been less stressful of late; mine's been sort of jet-fueled, but I figured if I didn't respond now, it'd be another two weeks... Per our previous discussion, I said I'd try to give you some advice about how to handle disputes. The biggest thing I can think of is the old Fight Club mantra, "You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake." Wikipedia is about the collaborative effort of the many, not the shining brilliance of the one. Take a look at the history of Nupedia for how that other approach failed in spectacular ways. Wikipedia will manage just fine if you, or I, or Angela Beesley or even Jimbo Wales, at this point, were to disappear (though the latter would require an election, of course). It's become big enough and self-sustaining, on the whole. Does it make mistakes? Sure. Any big, disorganized, labyrinthine project to build such a massive encyclopedia is bound to have its false starts, digressions like the userbox wars, and collateral damage like vandals getting pages screwed up or deleted. But it's a wiki. It's almost uniquely well-designed to overcome all of those problems. EVERY SINGLE EDIT to an article is recoverable somewhere, by someone, unless a developer actually goes into the database and deletes it, and that's just not done very often. Even if a page is deleted by consensus, there's deletion review. If a subject gains notability/verifiability later that they didn't have in the 1st/2nd/5th draft, they can have a page recreated, and the old page(s) can be recovered from deletion if there's something worth salvaging in there. It's easy to fix. So what am I getting at? Slow down. Don't take everything personally, or feel like it's your "job" to "fix" things. We're doing this out of volunteer love for the project, or the subject material, or humanity, right? Volunteers can take breaks. They can step back and let someone else shovel for a while. The job still moves forward, even without you. If you're getting hot under the collar, go do something unrelated: sort some stubs, click random article and fix some grammar, or just log off and come back in a few hours/days. I've got faith that other editors can come to the right decision, even in my absence. Which doesn't mean I don't spend way too much time and effort here, anyway, because I do make valuable contributions - and so do you! See you around... -- nae' blis 16:38, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
