dear cacophony , one of your very nice freinds has changed fog bow page in order to compare moonbow and lunar fogbow. moonbow has nothing to do with lunar fogbow. moonbow is a rainbow, which is seen at night usually at the more or less full moon. the changes your freind made to the page show one more time that i was right in removing my images and forcing people, who,like you, for example, are really interested in learning about fog bows to hit the links and read a reliable source instead of reading wikipedia, where anybody, who has no slightest idea, what he's talking about (like you and fir0002, for example) could change the page. the battom line is that changes your freind made should not be at fog bow page. i wrote that message for the history that i do not agree with the changes. i would have changed the page myself, but i'm really afraid of your and your freinds distractive power over all changes i've made for the last few days. thanks.-- Mbz1 00:06, 30 July 2007 (UTC)mbz1

May I inquire (again) as to why (specifically) you removed the spoiler tags from the plot section of the article? I have read the terms for the usage of spoiler tags and, considering how much detail is given in the plot section of the article, thought that they were valid and needed. The Plot gives away far more than a basic plot, it also covers the 'gradual developments' in the film, including the 'twists' that give the film it's effect. Stephenjh 02:57, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

When I first started uploading images to the commons, I found a large cache of smallish images from a US Forest database. I uploaded quite a few of images from there -- the web based database has a lot of problems, like I had to start at their first image instead of being able to easily find images from places I was more familiar with and other things (including speed). I have a phone number to somebody who is supposed to perhaps provide access to higher resolution versions of those images -- it has been a few months and I haven't called the number.
I am here typing away on your talk page right now because I was looking at one of your images on the Quality Image candidates thingie right now -- I dug out a couple of images that I found in that database and really loved:
I still tear up a little when I see them together; I love cameras because they do things like this. When I was in school and learning about my country, I was kind of proud also -- I sure wish I could have lived there. (*sniffle*)

Hi, I saw that you removed the wikilinks from the dates in the Charles Dickens article. I would encourage you to add wikilinks to dates when they contain date and year (i.e. September 2, 2007) because this allows user preferences to format the date display in a users prefered format. If the date only contains a year then I would agree that it is a low value link that should not be included, otherwise it helps to have the wikilinks.

I have reverted some of your latest edits to Andrew Cunningham, 1st Viscount Cunningham of Hyndhope under the provisions of the WP:MOS#Images. The Matapan map in the article calls on the provision:Except in the case of detailed maps and drawings. To me the meaning of the map is lost at default size. This was discussed in its FAC. This article is a FA and the images have not changed size since the FAC. This was just a note to remember that there are some exceptions to the default size ruling. Also, I used common sense with the DSO image which is the inverse of the Matapan Map, there is no need for it to be so large. The same effect is gained at 80px, than at 140px. Thanks.

This is re: your edit to Uranus. I'm personally inclined to give a large latitude to the article authors, myself, on this... a lot of those images are pretty much incoherent at 180px, most readers are not logged in, and those who are rarely have preferences enabled anyway. A lot of those images seem to meet the "detailed maps, diagrams or charts" or "small sections which are hard to read with too much compression" exceptions. Just my two cents on that.

I created a new section of Portal:Oregon, Portal:Oregon/Selected panorama, specifically for panorama shots. I added all that you had recommended at Portal talk:Oregon, if we add 2 more we'd have an even 10 panorama shots. Any chance you have 2 more? It'd be nice if they pertained to a specific Oregon-related article that we could link to in the bottom right for "More...", and if it's something different not yet used in a previous panorama shot.

Hi Cacophony, I've been enjoying your recent panoramas, the one of Cuzco is awesome. I can only offer limited help but I'll do what I can: What stitcher are you using? If it is PTGui then I think there is an option for setting horizontal line control points. Same with Hugin and Autopano Pro. If it is photomerge on PS then you need to do the horizon correction post stitch using the (Edit > Transform > Warp) or (Edit > Transform > Skew) commands. You need to correct the vignetting on the source files which it looks like went uncorrected. Thats easy in either Camera RAW or (Filter > Distort > Lens Corrections) I can do that bit for you, but I really would have trouble stitching for you about now. See I'm on a old PowerBook G4 and so its sluggish even when I'm stitching things under 12000px. Let me know if you upload one after removing the vignetting. I can probably correct the Horizon well enough. - Fcb981( talk: contribs) 04:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Hi Cacophony,
Sorry for the time it's taken but I've just kind of done it in bits and pieces around other things. I tried a few stitchers and am still not particularly happy with the result but thought I'd let you see it anyway:
Image:Seattle pano stitch fir0002.jpg. I've downsized it as I didn't have the RAM/CPU or the patience to do it at full res. The main problem is that your lens seems to have fairly bad vignetting and this creates unseemly dark areas in the sky at the seams. I guess it would be possible but it would be quite tedious as skies are very unforgiving for small mis alignments in the lighting gradient. I noticed you'd got it stitched quite well by someone else already so it may be redundant but I thought you might like to compare anyway. --

I have a question concerning the Interstate Bridge which you created. I know that both bridges have a lift to let boats go by, and the bridges also carries Interstate 5 traffic. Acording to the article, "The lift takes 10 minutes to open and does so between 10 and 20 times per month", so what I am wondering is when the lifts are in operation, what happens to the vehicle traffic?

A "beautiful" photograph is significant because it fully expresses itself in relation to its topic. Are you using a different definition of beautiful? Beauty is often defined as "an outstanding example of its kind", hence significance or importance is implicit in anything deemed beautiful. I would argue that there is no other essential criteria but beauty. File:Homeless on bench.jpg is one of the most beautiful photographs of homelessness I have ever seen, and the opposes were completely unjustified, with many saying that they wanted a photograph of an entire person. That's not acceptable, because not only would it be wrong to describe someone as homeless and show their face, but an image of just bare feet and legs on a park bench with garbage in the background is more informative to the viewer. The outcome of this vote shows that that the featured picture system is broken. Viriditas ( talk) 11:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi Cacophony. You recently removed an image that you felt was unencyclopedic, and I was just curious as to why you thought so. Thus far, it is the best quality image of Polamalu's hair that we have. His hair is a very distinctive physical feature, so there is a need to illustrate it using a high-quality photo. I tried to look for a guideline/policy that restricts the use of such images, but couldn't find anything--is there one?

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Calmer Waters 09:07, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (
consensus discussion, guidelines for use at
WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot ( talk) 20:40, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

For your many wonderful images. I'm always delighted to find one of yours when I'm hunting for photos at the Commons. Most recently that includes File:IndianPaintbrush1.jpg and File:PaintedHillsPano4.jpg, which I've added to John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. Aside from being directly useful in articles, your images are good models for other photographers, including me, to emulate.

dear cacophony , one of your very nice freinds has changed fog bow page in order to compare moonbow and lunar fogbow. moonbow has nothing to do with lunar fogbow. moonbow is a rainbow, which is seen at night usually at the more or less full moon. the changes your freind made to the page show one more time that i was right in removing my images and forcing people, who,like you, for example, are really interested in learning about fog bows to hit the links and read a reliable source instead of reading wikipedia, where anybody, who has no slightest idea, what he's talking about (like you and fir0002, for example) could change the page. the battom line is that changes your freind made should not be at fog bow page. i wrote that message for the history that i do not agree with the changes. i would have changed the page myself, but i'm really afraid of your and your freinds distractive power over all changes i've made for the last few days. thanks.-- Mbz1 00:06, 30 July 2007 (UTC)mbz1

May I inquire (again) as to why (specifically) you removed the spoiler tags from the plot section of the article? I have read the terms for the usage of spoiler tags and, considering how much detail is given in the plot section of the article, thought that they were valid and needed. The Plot gives away far more than a basic plot, it also covers the 'gradual developments' in the film, including the 'twists' that give the film it's effect. Stephenjh 02:57, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

When I first started uploading images to the commons, I found a large cache of smallish images from a US Forest database. I uploaded quite a few of images from there -- the web based database has a lot of problems, like I had to start at their first image instead of being able to easily find images from places I was more familiar with and other things (including speed). I have a phone number to somebody who is supposed to perhaps provide access to higher resolution versions of those images -- it has been a few months and I haven't called the number.
I am here typing away on your talk page right now because I was looking at one of your images on the Quality Image candidates thingie right now -- I dug out a couple of images that I found in that database and really loved:
I still tear up a little when I see them together; I love cameras because they do things like this. When I was in school and learning about my country, I was kind of proud also -- I sure wish I could have lived there. (*sniffle*)

I have reverted some of your latest edits to Andrew Cunningham, 1st Viscount Cunningham of Hyndhope under the provisions of the WP:MOS#Images. The Matapan map in the article calls on the provision:Except in the case of detailed maps and drawings. To me the meaning of the map is lost at default size. This was discussed in its FAC. This article is a FA and the images have not changed size since the FAC. This was just a note to remember that there are some exceptions to the default size ruling. Also, I used common sense with the DSO image which is the inverse of the Matapan Map, there is no need for it to be so large. The same effect is gained at 80px, than at 140px. Thanks.

This is re: your edit to Uranus. I'm personally inclined to give a large latitude to the article authors, myself, on this... a lot of those images are pretty much incoherent at 180px, most readers are not logged in, and those who are rarely have preferences enabled anyway. A lot of those images seem to meet the "detailed maps, diagrams or charts" or "small sections which are hard to read with too much compression" exceptions. Just my two cents on that.

I created a new section of Portal:Oregon, Portal:Oregon/Selected panorama, specifically for panorama shots. I added all that you had recommended at Portal talk:Oregon, if we add 2 more we'd have an even 10 panorama shots. Any chance you have 2 more? It'd be nice if they pertained to a specific Oregon-related article that we could link to in the bottom right for "More...", and if it's something different not yet used in a previous panorama shot.

Hi Cacophony, I've been enjoying your recent panoramas, the one of Cuzco is awesome. I can only offer limited help but I'll do what I can: What stitcher are you using? If it is PTGui then I think there is an option for setting horizontal line control points. Same with Hugin and Autopano Pro. If it is photomerge on PS then you need to do the horizon correction post stitch using the (Edit > Transform > Warp) or (Edit > Transform > Skew) commands. You need to correct the vignetting on the source files which it looks like went uncorrected. Thats easy in either Camera RAW or (Filter > Distort > Lens Corrections) I can do that bit for you, but I really would have trouble stitching for you about now. See I'm on a old PowerBook G4 and so its sluggish even when I'm stitching things under 12000px. Let me know if you upload one after removing the vignetting. I can probably correct the Horizon well enough. - Fcb981( talk: contribs) 04:00, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for the time it's taken but I've just kind of done it in bits and pieces around other things. I tried a few stitchers and am still not particularly happy with the result but thought I'd let you see it anyway:

The main problem is that your lens seems to have fairly bad vignetting and this creates unseemly dark areas in the sky at the seams. I guess it would be possible but it would be quite tedious as skies are very unforgiving for small mis alignments in the lighting gradient. I noticed you'd got it stitched quite well by someone else already so it may be redundant but I thought you might like to compare anyway. --

Hi Cacophony, I just spruced up Blue Bridge (Oregon) with a few details, one of which is the geolocation. Could you look at the point I chose and see if that is, in fact, in the middle of the bridge. Judging by your photograph, it looks like the building at the end of the bridge might not be right according to the satellite view, though it's hard to see. — EncMstr ( talk) 03:20, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

I have a question concerning the Interstate Bridge which you created. I know that both bridges have a lift to let boats go by, and the bridges also carries Interstate 5 traffic. Acording to the article, "The lift takes 10 minutes to open and does so between 10 and 20 times per month", so what I am wondering is when the lifts are in operation, what happens to the vehicle traffic? Are there traffic lights? Even though it is an interstate? Or are the lifts defunct? Wonder if you could clear that up. OOODDD ( talk) 20:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

A "beautiful" photograph is significant because it fully expresses itself in relation to its topic. Are you using a different definition of beautiful? Beauty is often defined as "an outstanding example of its kind", hence significance or importance is implicit in anything deemed beautiful. I would argue that there is no other essential criteria but beauty. File:Homeless on bench.jpg is one of the most beautiful photographs of homelessness I have ever seen, and the opposes were completely unjustified, with many saying that they wanted a photograph of an entire person. That's not acceptable, because not only would it be wrong to describe someone as homeless and show their face, but an image of just bare feet and legs on a park bench with garbage in the background is more informative to the viewer. The outcome of this vote shows that that the featured picture system is broken. Viriditas ( talk) 11:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi Jason,
I see that you too are interested in bridges! I would like to email you a specific request to use your splendid Landscape Arch image in a book that I have nearly completed and that has a publisher agreed. Full acknowledgements will of course be made and I am seeking only non-exclusive copyright permission. Because of the diffrences between British and US copyright laws, it would be most comfortable if I could email you direct to follow through with this request. I'll watch for your reply here.

Hi Cacophony. You recently removed an image that you felt was unencyclopedic, and I was just curious as to why you thought so. Thus far, it is the best quality image of Polamalu's hair that we have. His hair is a very distinctive physical feature, so there is a need to illustrate it using a high-quality photo. I tried to look for a guideline/policy that restricts the use of such images, but couldn't find anything--is there one?
I like your pictures, by the way. Great work. BlueAg09 ( Talk) 08:48, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Calmer Waters 09:07, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (
consensus discussion, guidelines for use at
WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot ( talk) 20:40, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

For your many wonderful images. I'm always delighted to find one of yours when I'm hunting for photos at the Commons.
