We blank suspected copyright violations because Wikipedia is licensed under the GFDL, and anything that might be copyrighted has to be removed quickly to prevent problems. The text is still accessible in the history, so it's not that huge a deal. I'd recommend making your suggestion at WT:Copyright problems, as it's going to get much wider reception and comment there.
As for your image question, you could try posting a request at Wikipedia:Images for upload. As long as you are logged in, however, your IP address cannot be accessed except through the checkuser tool, which is only usable by a handful of trusted users for a handful of specific reasons, most generally to confirm or deny sockpuppetry. In your case, however, I'd recommend uploading the image off-site somewhere, then putting in a request at IFU.
Could I also ask why you needed to email me? It's usually easier to get in touch with me through my talk page, and emails are generally for private or non-Wikipedia-related communication. Hersfold ( t/ a/ c) 17:33, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Wow, speedy deletion really is speedy! A few seconds after I tagged the article on craylix for speedy deletion as incoherent nonsense, somebody contested the speedy by removing the speedy-deletion template. A few seconds after that, I went in to the article to put a {{subst:prod}} template with an edit summary of "contested speedy," but it had already been deleted. The entire series of transactions took less than one minute. Bwrs ( talk) 16:37, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

You undid my addition about her bulimia and the quote about her Playboy photo shoot. Why? The quote about the photo shoot was relevant to that part of the paragraph, and her struggle with bulimia is relevant as an event of her life. Jonjames1986 ( talk) 04:39, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi Bwrs. The word "liberal" does not mean exactly the same as "left-wing" in most of the world outside the US, and so writing [[left-wing|liberal]] in articles on British topics actually introduces POV. Besides, the councils were called by their friends and critics, now and at the time, "left-wing"-- why would you want to hide it behind another term, anyway?
As to "loony left", this is a phrase the tabloids used at the time to whip up public feeling against these councils; its use here as a reference is encyclopedic. (The article it linked to explains the phrase and its use, and it's appropriate to link to it. To hide the link to Loony left behind a link to something else is merely confusing.

"I actually do more editing while not logged in, than while logged in. But I assume that the rollback feature can only be granted to usernames, and not to IP addresses? Thanks. Bwrs ( talk) 15:33, 2 June 2008 (UTC)"
Yes that's right. No IP can be granted user rights. Are you asking also for rollback on your account? Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 15:36, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, it was just an edit conflict. I used that automatic script, and when I clicked decline, it was still normal. Soxred 93 03:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
I am curious as to whether the mediation committee has "clerks," similar to the arbitration committee and WP:RFCU. I assume not, but I figured that it wouldn't hurt to ask. Bwrs ( talk) 02:26, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Just to be clear, you aren't in any way related to User:Wrs1864 (who's also edited Open Mail Relay)? ff m
I came across a comment you left for DS. You are not the only person who thinks ID is non-neutral. In my opinion, mediation would not be useful if the mediator was some random passerby, but it could be useful if the mediator was well-respected for his/her experience in writing unbiased articles on controversial subjects. Gnixon ( talk) 17:11, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
No problem at all. If I'm unsure I try to state the gender neutrally or avoid it. Do you have any thoughts on the potential rememdies and such?

Most are male? That's funny... Probably just a coincidence. I'm a Christian, so I view marriage as a very sacred act of commitment. According to Malachi 2:16, God Himself does not approve of divorce, accept in cases of adultery or abuse. Happy editing! -- P.B. Pilhet 22:57, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
As bankruptcy law affects economics and business, it'd still be relevant to them - unless the code has amendments that are pretty much against the case itself.
The way an article is assessed for a WikiProject can be seen from their individual quality scales. Many WikiProject Assessment Depts. (including Law), although aware of the existence of C-class for the editorial team, are not willing to adopt C-class themselves (just yet anyway). In that sense, their quality scale may either stick to the old system, or with a system they have designed or modified.
The only assessment dept. (of the 3 relevant WikiProjects to this article) that adopts C-class is the US Supreme Court cases one. I'll respond to your comments @ review later. Ncmvocalist ( talk) 02:27, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
Yes, I appreciate it. I understand the position and the what it involves. I would like it make it this time but I will not get discouraged if I don't. I'll just keep doing what I'm doing then. But for now, I can only hope I can persuade you. Thanks ;-) -- ♣ẼгíćЏ89♣ ( talk) 05:23, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Haha. I took a look at that page. In June 2007, a random user posted a strange story about getting fired from a job for misconduct or some such.

I am renoving the note on the Cleveland Indians article. The Curse of Rocky Colavito is a pretty widely used term in Baseball to refer to the Indians problems since the trade.

I was the creator of the article about Sally Eaton. It was nominated for deletion back in December of 2006, and was UNANIMOUSLY voted KEEP [1]. It has been improved since then. I don't see any evidence that Sally Eaton presently objects to the article, and in fact I know that she has stated that she had no problem with it as of February 2007. Please tell me why you believe she currently objects to the article. I will delete the prod if there is no evidence of current objection; however, if there is, I will vote to delete the article myself. I'll go along with her wishes, whatever they really are.

Thank you for your support in
my recent RfA, which closed successfully. I felt the process was a thorough review of my contributions and my demeanor, and I was very gratified to see how many editors took the time to really see what I'm about and how I can be of help to the project. As a result, some editors changed their views during the discussion, and most expressed specific, detailed points to indicate their opinion (whether it was
,
, or
).
A number of editors were concerned about my level of experience. I was purposeful in not waiting until a particular benchmark occurred before requesting adminship, because I feel - as many do - that adminship is not a reward and that each case is individual. It is true that I am not the most experienced editor around here, but I appreciate that people dug into my contributions enough to reach the conclusion that I seem to have a clue. Also, the best thing about this particular concern is that experience is something an editor - or administrator - can always get more of, and I'll continue doing that, just as I've been doing. (If I seem a little slow at it, feel free to slap me.)
I am a strong believer in the concept that this project is all about the content, and I'm looking forward to contributing wherever I can. Please let me know if I can be of any help. In the meantime, I'm off to school...
Thanks again!
I noticed that you made some subsequent edits ( [3] and [4] about the article image. However, User:PhilKnight had taken care of that earlier, so there was no further copyvio and no need for action. Please let me know if you have further concerns about this. I also noticed your congratulations on my talk page, for which I add additional thanks!
hope you'll remain on occasion. TravellingCari the Busy Bee 16:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Dear
Bwrs, thank you so much for your words of support, kindness, and your trust in me. My
request for Adminship has been closed, and the support the community has shown will be with me forever. I have no way to properly express how grateful I am, and all I can tell you is this: I shall try not to disappoint you nor anyone else with my use of the buttons... and if I mess up, please
tell me! :) If you ever need my help, either for admin-related stuff or in any other way, you are welcome to ask, and I shall do my very best.
Please take care. |
Looking through the soft redirect category (hey, someone might as well...), I noticed you made a soft redirect at Solid apple, to Option key. Generally, there's no need to make a soft redirect from one article to another -- as it seemed like a perfectly sensible redirect, I changed it to a normal, hard redirect. You can easily make them yourself. Just a note of advice! I saw above that you left for a while recently -- glad to see you back. I'm, currently, a very occasional user myself. Good wiki'ing! JesseW, the juggling janitor 08:33, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
I appreciate the help with housekeeping, really. But there is not a difficulty choosing the correct word in these instances.
FYI: the phrase "exotic terrain" means nothing, geologically speaking, and earth scientists do not use it. Although a geologist may well use the term "terrain," when describing landforms or an area of the earths surface. "Terrane" or "exotic terrane" refers to a discrete 3-dimensional portion of the earths crust. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CGX ( talk • contribs) 04:02, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I just noticed your undo of a test edit on Titanium, and all of your manual warning of the user. I'd recommend that you check out WP:TWINKLE if you haven't yet, it just makes life a lot easier (at least for me).

I agree that the link given was a link to a possible copyright violation. I changed the link to the actual article. DanielZimmerman ( talk) 20:05, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
is the one in the U.S. Capitol the original and the one in front of the state capitol the replica, or is the one in front of the state capitol the original and the one in the U.S. capitol a replica? Or are both originals?
I see that you make a practice of subst'ing various redirect templates, and I am curious as to why. It seems to me to be undesirable to subst these templates, since they add the redirect pages to various categories; if a future change is made to any of the categorization schemes, a change to the template would take care of it automatically for all transclusions, but all the subst'd instances would then have to be hunted down and edited separately. However, perhaps there is some other issue I hadn't considered? -- R'n'B ( call me Russ) 16:12, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Don't be sorry. Most people wouldn't apologize for their edits. Depending on the individual point of view, it may be relevant or not.

Hi Bwrs. I've just seen this comment of yours. As the editor had been warned for removing material from the very same article four days previously, and as this seems to be merely the latest incident in his long-term editing pattern (only briefly interrupted by blocks), in your position I might have chosen a more robustly worded template.

Dear Bwrs, here is a little note to say thank you for your kind vote on my request for adminship which failed with a final result of (40/19/12).
Thank you for your participation in my RfA which I withdrew after concerns of my knowledge of policy. Special thanks are owed to Coffee, who defended me throughout and whom I cannot thank enough for the nomination; to 2over0 for being supportive and helpful; to A Stop at Willoughby for the thorough, thoughtful and articulate support rationale; to IP69.226.103.13 for maintaining composure and for a pleasant interaction on my talk page and, last but not least, to Juliancolton who was good enough to close the RfA at my request and, frankly, because an editor whom I respect so much found the time to support me! If the need for more admins at the main page is still apparent in a few months, I may try again. Thank you all for a relatively drama-free RfA and for providing me with much material from which to learn from my mistakes. You're all welcome to drop by my talk page any time. God save the Queen Wiki!

A tag has been placed on SniffEx requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

In 2008. you created List of court cases citing to Wikipedia (and some variations of that) as a cross namespace soft redirect to Wikipedia:Wikipedia as a court source.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Circular reporting, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

We blank suspected copyright violations because Wikipedia is licensed under the GFDL, and anything that might be copyrighted has to be removed quickly to prevent problems. The text is still accessible in the history, so it's not that huge a deal. I'd recommend making your suggestion at WT:Copyright problems, as it's going to get much wider reception and comment there.
As for your image question, you could try posting a request at Wikipedia:Images for upload. As long as you are logged in, however, your IP address cannot be accessed except through the checkuser tool, which is only usable by a handful of trusted users for a handful of specific reasons, most generally to confirm or deny sockpuppetry. In your case, however, I'd recommend uploading the image off-site somewhere, then putting in a request at IFU.
Could I also ask why you needed to email me? It's usually easier to get in touch with me through my talk page, and emails are generally for private or non-Wikipedia-related communication. Hersfold ( t/ a/ c) 17:33, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Wow, speedy deletion really is speedy! A few seconds after I tagged the article on craylix for speedy deletion as incoherent nonsense, somebody contested the speedy by removing the speedy-deletion template. A few seconds after that, I went in to the article to put a {{subst:prod}} template with an edit summary of "contested speedy," but it had already been deleted. The entire series of transactions took less than one minute. Bwrs ( talk) 16:37, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

You undid my addition about her bulimia and the quote about her Playboy photo shoot. Why? The quote about the photo shoot was relevant to that part of the paragraph, and her struggle with bulimia is relevant as an event of her life. Jonjames1986 ( talk) 04:39, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi Bwrs. The word "liberal" does not mean exactly the same as "left-wing" in most of the world outside the US, and so writing [[left-wing|liberal]] in articles on British topics actually introduces POV. Besides, the councils were called by their friends and critics, now and at the time, "left-wing"-- why would you want to hide it behind another term, anyway?
As to "loony left", this is a phrase the tabloids used at the time to whip up public feeling against these councils; its use here as a reference is encyclopedic. (The article it linked to explains the phrase and its use, and it's appropriate to link to it. To hide the link to Loony left behind a link to something else is merely confusing.

I came across a comment you left for DS. You are not the only person who thinks ID is non-neutral.

Most are male? That's funny... Probably just a coincidence. I'm a Christian, so I view marriage as a very sacred act of commitment. According to Malachi 2:16, God Himself does not approve of divorce, accept in cases of adultery or abuse. Happy editing! -- P.B. Pilhet 22:57, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
As bankruptcy law affects economics and business, it'd still be relevant to them - unless the code has amendments that are pretty much against the case itself.
The way an article is assessed for a WikiProject can be seen from their individual quality scales. Many WikiProject Assessment Depts. (including Law), although aware of the existence of C-class for the editorial team, are not willing to adopt C-class themselves (just yet anyway). In that sense, their quality scale may either stick to the old system, or with a system they have designed or modified.
The only assessment dept. (of the 3 relevant WikiProjects to this article) that adopts C-class is the US Supreme Court cases one. I'll respond to your comments @ review later. Ncmvocalist ( talk) 02:27, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

I was the creator of the article about Sally Eaton. It was nominated for deletion back in December of 2006, and was UNANIMOUSLY voted KEEP [1]. It has been improved since then. I don't see any evidence that Sally Eaton presently objects to the article, and in fact I know that she has stated that she had no problem with it as of February 2007. Please tell me why you believe she currently objects to the article. I will delete the prod if there is no evidence of current objection; however, if there is, I will vote to delete the article myself. I'll go along with her wishes, whatever they really are.

Thank you for your support in
my recent RfA, which closed successfully. I felt the process was a thorough review of my contributions and my demeanor, and I was very gratified to see how many editors took the time to really see what I'm about and how I can be of help to the project. As a result, some editors changed their views during the discussion, and most expressed specific, detailed points to indicate their opinion (whether it was
,
, or
).
A number of editors were concerned about my level of experience. I was purposeful in not waiting until a particular benchmark occurred before requesting adminship, because I feel - as many do - that adminship is not a reward and that each case is individual. It is true that I am not the most experienced editor around here, but I appreciate that people dug into my contributions enough to reach the conclusion that I seem to have a clue. Also, the best thing about this particular concern is that experience is something an editor - or administrator - can always get more of, and I'll continue doing that, just as I've been doing. (If I seem a little slow at it, feel free to slap me.)
I am a strong believer in the concept that this project is all about the content, and I'm looking forward to contributing wherever I can. Please let me know if I can be of any help. In the meantime, I'm off to school...
Thanks again!
I noticed that you made some subsequent edits ( [3] and [4] about the article image. However, User:PhilKnight had taken care of that earlier, so there was no further copyvio and no need for action. Please let me know if you have further concerns about this. I also noticed your congratulations on my talk page, for which I add additional thanks!
hope you'll remain on occasion. TravellingCari the Busy Bee 16:00, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Please take care. |
Looking through the soft redirect category (hey, someone might as well...), I noticed you made a soft redirect at Solid apple, to Option key. Generally, there's no need to make a soft redirect from one article to another -- as it seemed like a perfectly sensible redirect, I changed it to a normal, hard redirect. You can easily make them yourself. Just a note of advice! I saw above that you left for a while recently -- glad to see you back. I'm, currently, a very occasional user myself. Good wiki'ing!

I appreciate the help with housekeeping, really. But there is not a difficulty choosing the correct word in these instances.
FYI: the phrase "exotic terrain" means nothing, geologically speaking, and earth scientists do not use it. Although a geologist may well use the term "terrain," when describing landforms or an area of the earths surface. "Terrane" or "exotic terrane" refers to a discrete 3-dimensional portion of the earths crust. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CGX ( talk • contribs) 04:02, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

I see that you make a practice of subst'ing various redirect templates, and I am curious as to why. It seems to me to be undesirable to subst these templates, since they add the redirect pages to various categories; if a future change is made to any of the categorization schemes, a change to the template would take care of it automatically for all transclusions, but all the subst'd instances would then have to be hunted down and edited separately. However, perhaps there is some other issue I hadn't considered? -- R'n'B ( call me Russ) 16:12, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
Don't be sorry. Most people wouldn't apologize for their edits. Depending on the individual point of view, it may be relevant or not.

Dear Bwrs, here is a little note to say thank you for your kind vote on my request for adminship which failed with a final result of (40/19/12).
Thank you for your participation in my RfA which I withdrew after concerns of my knowledge of policy. Special thanks are owed to Coffee, who defended me throughout and whom I cannot thank enough for the nomination; to 2over0 for being supportive and helpful; to A Stop at Willoughby for the thorough, thoughtful and articulate support rationale; to IP69.226.103.13 for maintaining composure and for a pleasant interaction on my talk page and, last but not least, to Juliancolton who was good enough to close the RfA at my request and, frankly, because an editor whom I respect so much found the time to support me! If the need for more admins at the main page is still apparent in a few months, I may try again. Thank you all for a relatively drama-free RfA and for providing me with much material from which to learn from my mistakes. You're all welcome to drop by my talk page any time. God save the Queen Wiki!

A tag has been placed on SniffEx requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

In 2008. you created List of court cases citing to Wikipedia (and some variations of that) as a cross namespace soft redirect to Wikipedia:Wikipedia as a court source. Is there some reason you made it a soft redirect? My understanding it that cross namespace redirects are almost always hare unless there is some technical reason (such as redirecting to a sister project) that would prevent a hard redirect from working. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emmette Hernandez Coleman ( talk • contribs) 22:06, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Could you pick up on the statement at Talk:Digital mailroom with regard to copyright and potential COI? I have locked the OTRS ticket but this seems advice that can readily be given openly rather than by closed email correspondence. Thanks -- Fæ ( talk) 12:39, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
I believe this refers to the proposal for Burundi's new electoral code, which has just been passed by the National Assembly.-- Pharos ( talk) 09:35, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Finnish Santa Claus Foundation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Gbawden ( talk) 10:26, 27 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Circular reporting, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
