Will read this DYK message (on Durova's talk) more carefully later today. Wonderfully informative. Thank you. And happy holidays, of course. :-) Proofreader77 ( talk) 22:32, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
It's been an exciting December for me at Wikipedia ... and my userpage is MUCH improved. :-) ... I.E., A lot is flowing right now ... and the female warrior theme struck a chord when I saw it. And by the way, I've known vaguely about WP:DYK existence, but no idea what it means as a process of work. Learning. :-) Again, thank you for the good information, and I'll see if I'm supposed to do some work in the topic area above ... as 2010 rolls in. Cheers.

You said that you had an issue of Entertainment Weekly that contained development information that could be used for Characters and wildlife in Avatar. I am working on this article, and I was wondering if you had any free time to help implement such details? Erik ( talk) 03:48, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
← Have a Happy New Year! We'll work out these details in 2010. :) Erik ( talk) 17:10, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
I don't want the Mercenaries character articles to stagnate like other "rescued" articles. Don't do the rescue project a disservice by forgetting about them. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 03:42, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

We are currently working on several proposals to improve the project for 2010. These include bringing the Milhist Academy up to full operational status, as well as spicing up and streamlining the task force structure. Also, any help you can offer to clear the current backlog of Military History good article nominations would be appreciated. For the Coordinators, TomStar81 ( Talk) 11:10, 26 December 2009 (UTC) |

The article you added a section to was worded improperly and the quotes material doesn't look quite right. Can you go back and revise it. It seems you are quoting from the book by Neal, but the quote is talking about the book ain the third person, as if it was a review of the Neal book. The reference you used was the Neal book itself. Were you quoting a blurb review of the book from the jacket? -- Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) ( talk) 19:41, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:PlayStation 2 Resident Evil 4 covers.jpg. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 07:34, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
I never thanked for your condolence note last year, but I appreciate it more than I can possibly express. All the best, in friendship. Guettarda ( talk) 16:22, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
As a contributor to one of these articles, would you like to comment at the merge proposal? Vmenkov ( talk) 03:07, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

There has been some back and forth reverting on the Resident Evil 4 article. You add the image, and User:StarScream1007 removes it. I don't feel particularly strong about the issue, although I do feel the image has been rendered somewhat redundant by other images in the article. The issue of fair use might require some discussion, as you well know Wikipedia is strict about that. I suggest you engage in discussion before once more adding the image, as this is unlikely to be settled by reverts. Regards, -- Atlan ( talk) 16:39, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
I added a video of a real exorcism in the Exorcism article at the link section but it was removed by someone?? It was both instructional and showed a real live exorcism. Should videos not be added to wikipedia articles? Please help? Peace! Humilityisfine ( talk) 15:06, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
