Hi After Midnight. Would you please provide some guidance on what is remiss re licensing here? Would you share with me or give a little guidance as to what license you would like to see used? Thanks. CApitol3 18:34, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

I left a message on User talk:Anoshirawan's talk page, with some further advice about how to address the problem that although native English speakers think they know "Afghan" means a person from Afghanistan, people with local knowledge of the reason say that Afghan only refers to people from the most numerous Pashtun ethnic group.
In my comment I made some suggestions, and I suggested that you might offer some further help. I hope you have time to read it. And, if you have any further advice I hope you have time to offer it.

Hello After Midnight. I am attemtpting to add some information to the DREF section of the DST page. I not sure how to cite sources and references. I was attempting to post the information first. Then it was my intention to go back and post the sources where I obtained some of the information, before I could do so Miranda deleted my information and said that I copied without providing a source. Well, when I attempted to go back and cite the source to some of the information Miranda deleted my DREF sections again. First, I am not an expert. Are posters given an opporunity to correct or make changes to the information before it is deleted? Even now when I attempt to go back and post the sources with the DREF inforamtion cited she deletes it. Thanks for your help. You can also email me at historicdst@yahoo.com. Also, I post under ueser name HistoricDST (which was created first) and HistoricDeltaSigmaTheta. I was not sure if I could get my account back when I decided to leave initially. Also, if I am wrong can you show me how to cite the sources correctly? Thanks. HistoricDST 23:43, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
I agree that there's no particular benefit in correcting capitalisation / spelling of text within reference tags, but since there's also no particular harm, I don't bother to override the 'corrections' suggested by the AWB typo script if other genuine corrections are made at the same time.

Hi. You recently reverted an I9 speedy that I tagged this image with, with the edit summary of "rv - fair use was asserted - please read the CSD criteria that you are using to tag this". I have reverted this because you didn't check the previous content. The fair use summary was for a Buffy the Vampire Slayer image and had evidently been copied and pasted from another image the user had uploaded (which I checked in their contribs). Therefore it remains a copyvio. Seraphim Whipp 08:12, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Regarding Wikipedia:User categories for discussion/Archive/September 2007#Category:User programmer, I'm concerned about the process followed. I noticed when the {{ cfr}} (not cfd) template was placed on the categories, and decided "I don't care one way or another if they are renamed in the stated fashion" so I thought nothing further about it. Then today a bot comes along implementing a "delete" verdict, which causes me to think "WTF? It was supposed to be a rename discussion!".

Hi, some time ago you closed this CfD and deleted Category:User ke and subcats. Now, a friend who was on wikibreak at the time, NikoSilver, tells me he would like it back ( [1]). His point, which I think has some merit, is that "Ancient Greek" and "Koine Greek" are sufficiently different that many people would classify themselves as knowing Koine without knowing A.G. to the same extent. I guess this applies especially to many native speakers of Modern Greek, for whom Koine is significantly easier than "real" A.G. Indeed, there are a good number of users who give themselves higher Babel ratings for Ke than for Grc (see besides User:NikoSilver e.g. User:Kimon, User:KRBN, User:Brianbeck, User:Kupirijo, User:KaragouniS).
This has quite a practical significance for Wikipedia: if you seek a fellow editor who can verify a Greek quote from the New Testament for you, you might want to turn to somebody different than if you need someone who can translate a line of Homer.
Is the lack of an ISO code a serious problem? I'm not aware if there is a general consensus that only ISO-coded languages can be Babelised; I guess practical Wikipedian considerations should always take precedence.
I'm not sure this is an issue for WP:DRV, because it's not a procedural challenge of the deletion closure, which was obviously valid. It's rather just an application of "Consensus Can Change". Would you mind terribly if he just re-created the category? We have no standard "official" process for allowing such recreations, I think. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:12, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

It seems that you are deleting many nonfree images without rationales where it is unclear that a rationale is needed in addition to the template.

How do you mass tag images like on WBBM-TV with Twinkie? ViperSnake151 12:49, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
Is there currently any procedure for putting a note on talkpages of articles that link to an image that's been nominated for speedy deletion? Alternatively, is there any procedure for undeleting images? The image DangerousLiaisons Screenshot OpeningScene.jpg was an integral part of Dangerous Liaisons and, as one screenshot from a 2-hour film, used for the purpose of illustrating a notable scene, certainly qualifies under fair use - if I'd only known it had been tagged I could have said so! Now it's leaving an unsightly and unnecessary gap in this article. -- Zeborah 19:14, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

As a neophyte trying to get me head around the rules, can you explain why the image flying_primates.jpg was deleted from the "Flying primates theory" page? There was an associated text explaninig that the image was not copyrighted and that its creator had no objections to it appearing in Wikipedia. What would be the appropriate licensing arrangement in that case?

Q: Jack, is the drawing of the flying primates theory (in allegorical form, as branches of a tree) that is in your web page copyrighted? If not, would you object to have that picture uploaded to a non-profit online encyclopedia (Wikipedia)? A: It is not copyrighted. I had the drawing commissioned by Schouten, so it belongs to me. I have no objection to it appearing elsewhere. All the best, Jack
I see that this image was deleted for some reason by you, though I'm not quite sure why the image that was here was deleted, also not sure on how to restore the image since I believe the image was deleted incorrectly. Please advise on how I should proceed on this from here, and why the image was deleted in case I'm not understanding the reasons for it. BeoHF 22:32, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

As a neophyte trying to get me head around the rules, can you explain why the image flying_primates.jpg was deleted from the "Flying primates theory" page? There was an associated text explaninig that the image was not copyrighted and that its creator had no objections to it appearing in Wikipedia. What would be the appropriate licensing arrangement in that case?

Q: Jack, is the drawing of the flying primates theory (in allegorical form, as branches of a tree) that is in your web page copyrighted? If not, would you object to have that picture uploaded to a non-profit online encyclopedia (Wikipedia)? A: It is not copyrighted. I had the drawing commissioned by Schouten, so it belongs to me. I have no objection to it appearing elsewhere. All the best, Jack
I see that this image was deleted for some reason by you, though I'm not quite sure why the image that was here was deleted, also not sure on how to restore the image since I believe the image was deleted incorrectly. Please advise on how I should proceed on this from here, and why the image was deleted in case I'm not understanding the reasons for it. BeoHF 22:32, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
I believe is its time to be deleted, it was never adopted is only fair. Anyway thank you for letting me know about it. Greetings. John Manuel - 00:32, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Why do you delete such an image when the authors have given it for use by wikipedia? You are expected to use discretion to promote quality of Wikipedia articles and not be an automat who deletes everything you don't lile. YOu've detracted from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.135.120.126 ( talk) 15:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, can you illuminate me on your speedy close of the above MfD? The argument was that the pages were a violation of the protection policy. I'm not sure why you're saying that the forum was incorrect. Regards - Videmus Omnia Talk 18:52, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
