Who is the IP who made new revisions? Isn't the correct procedure to jump into the Talk Page first before making changes? Thanks! Thelma Bowlen Talk 04:15, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
It is ok to get involved with editing the article? I stayed out of doing any edits, period... to show my neutrality. I am afraid that reverting the article would cause some-one to accues me of being on "the other side". How do I avoid this... I am not going to revert anything until I understand how to respond to these kinds of accusations... I don't know what to do if my netrality is put in question. Help on either would be very useful.
I see that the Perl mediation is now closed and that -Barry- has demanded the return of all of his edits and that the content dispute should be resolved by Arbitration Committee. This is rather disappointing. I'd hate to see the Perl page ruined due to the actions of two bad apples. Where can a new mediator be requested?
Also, you may also wish to correct the mention that Pudge identified -Barry- as Wassercrats. -Barry- has self-indentified himself on several occasions. Steve p 13:27, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for voting! Hello Jbolden1517/Archive2, and thank you so much for voting in my recent RfA. I am pleased to inform you that it passed with a final tally of (119/1/3), into the WP:100, so I have now been cleared for adminship and will soon be soaring above the clouds. I was overjoyed, shocked, and humbled by the tally, and, most importantly, all the support. Thank you. If there is ever anything you need, you know where you can find me. Take care. |

Uh, you recently removed the comments of User:The prophet wizard of the crayon cake from the Medcab talk page. Everyone's opinion is valid in this discussion, whether people have not had extensive mediation experience or not. Even if someone hasn't mediated before and was simply a disputant, their opinion would be valid as it would show how someone's view of the current mediation process is. If you don't mind, I think it's best if we leave the comments there as they don't hurt the discussion in any way. Cowman109 Talk 02:07, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Regardless of the lack of a positive and consensus-based outcome, I do want to thank you for your time and effort in helping the various editors. Your efforts are appreciated even if the results are not necessarily pleasing to everyone. Thanks! -- Avi 14:11, 22 June 2006 (UTC) |
I agree with Avi. I am feeling a bit bad that we cannot come to some conclusion. I actually do not have enough time to dedicate to the subject and so all I can deliver to support my claims is my emotional personal POV. And I am sorry for that.
I don't feel however, that either side is willing to let this article rest.
I may or may not return to the Messianic Judaism page. I do know that, to the goal of those that are so-called anti-missionaries, the page in its current state could not be used by any MJ as a definition of who we are as a people, neither what we believe. So at this point I feel as if they've won.
Anyway, thanks for your attempts, JBolden. Perhaps amongst ourselves one side or the other will break and something will subside. G-d's will be done.

Hi. I left a message on Cowman's talk page, but I remembered that he is busy in real life, so may I please ask you your opinion?
As a brief backgorund to the case, user:Nrtm81 wants the portal to be named Portal:Taiwan, whereas User:Chiang Kai-shek thinks that may be too political, and wants to make sure that there is no confusion that Taiwan isn't a country in it's own right.
Nrtm81 has now said "I better not keep considering things. My stance is Portal:Taiwan, no compromise on the name of the portal". He also said "Maybe it was my mistake to ask for mediation since I didn't want a change in the portal name" because of this I feel that this line of mediation has hit a dead end. I wanted to know wheather I should refer this case to Med Com, remove my comments for ArbCom, and let them deal with it (though they can't decide it's name, which is what Ntrm81 wants) or just leave the case open in case anything changes? An RfC has been filed, but so far there is no response, so I'm not holding my for any other user to come up with a compromise. As this is my first case, I would be really greatful for any help or advise that you can give me. Thank you very much. Yours, Th e Halo ( talk) 11:30, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, teach -- the kids over in Talk:Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal are at an impasse over a point and could use some input when you have a chance. Most of the pertinent discussion is contained in this section. KarlBunker 20:48, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Why is a Wikipedian permitted to use a terrorist username ( User:UpTheRa)?? In case you did not know it, "Up the 'Ra" is a pro-Irish Republican Army slogan.
This is in violation of Wikipedia rules barring "provocatine" usernames.
Why is this tolerated?? As an American, I am offended, particularly given the consensus that has emerged post-9/11. If I used an offensive term for a username. I have no doubt I would be blocked immediately.
Thank you for your attention.

(Left this message on Talk:Every Nation) Well done for all your hard work on this article. Sorry to see you go, as your commitment was a great asset to Wikipedia - I'm sure I won't be the only person to ask you to reconsider packing up for good...? David L Rattigan 08:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
[Moved from user page]
Well I've had enough. I came here to work on a free encylopedia but the politics of wikipedia make that impossible. I think its time to find another hobby. I'm sick and tired of day after day having do deal with cruelty that undermines every attempt to do good here.
To those of you I was mediating for that I'm dropping your cases, first off I'm really sorry. I loved mediation and I loved helping people resolve their differences and watching how much articles could improve once the editors started working together rather than againt one another. I really don't know what to tell you in terms of getting a replacement mediator. Mediation cabal is unlikely to give you the depth of commitment you need for most of the issues I took. Mediation committee is similiar to what you are used to, but I don't know that they can or will handle the extra cases. On balance that's where I would recommend you go. If I knew where to get good mediation I probably wouldn't have to leave myself. (Jbolden1517)

I was coming by to ask if you still wanted admin coaching. Well I guess the answer is no for now, so I've removed your request from the list. However, if you do decide to return (please do!) feel free to add your name (without having to wait again) to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box, and you'll be assigned a couple of coaches as soon as they become available. Let me know (on my talk page) if you have any questions. Cheers, Petros471 17:17, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
This article was first started by me and was deleted back in May '06. I was reading the punk house article and saw that the link for the TBP article was no longer red so I clicked on it and there was an article back up, started by another user. I dont know who started it because, it was deleted soon after I saw it. The decision made in the "Article for Deletion" debate should be reconsidered. The article is about a punk house not a fratenal organization. It seems that the debate, run by User:ChrisB and results were reported by User:Mailer Diablo. I will post this on their talk pages. This is the first time I have requested a deletion review so please let me know what else I need to do. If there is anything. I am on wikipedia frequently and I want to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for uploading Image:Tina 800x600.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I don't have time at the moment to dig through the diffs, but if you think there's cause, I recommend that you go ahead and file a 3RR report. Instructions are here: WP:AN3RR. Let me know if you have any questions. :) -- El on ka 18:05, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Jbolden1517,
Thanks very much for the review. I had a question. In the "Religion, mysticism, and mythology" section, I think "Religious figures and leaders" would be a better place. Would you please let me know what you think. Thanks -- Aminz 21:11, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
I see the use of this tag as an affirmation that the candidate either fears criticism or dislikes the consensus-building process, both of which are an every-day part of being an admin. Your comment here seems to indicate same. If you are afraid to put your reputation on the line and open yourself to public criticism, adminship might not be for you. You are, of course, still free to nominate yourself at WP:RFA. Kafziel Talk 16:29, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello. I have clarified the image description. I also explained on the talk page why I think there should be a logo tag. Best, nadav 05:16, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi Jbolden1517, thanks for your note. I don't know if arbcom is the right venue. There are 2 admins,
User:Coelacan &
user:Durova who know the background of this case and have help me when it was at
the community sanction noticeboard. I've been keeping them up to date (and probably bugging them too) with Anacapa's activities in gender studies articles, if you'd like to drop Durova a line on
her talkpage she might be able to advise us on the best course of action.
There has been resistance to banning because Anacapa hasn't been blocked. IMHO if action is taken against Anacapa it will be a warning and or atmost a temporary block. Thanks again for your comments--

Hi. Some images have been added to the article and the article has been renominated for GA. Would you considered taking another look at the article sometime? Thanks. Epbr123 00:15, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
This form message is being sent to you either due to your membership with WikiProject Good Articles and/or your inclusion on the Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers. A new drive has been started requesting that all members review at least one article (or more, if you wish!) within the next two weeks at GAC to help in removing the large backlog. This message is being sent to all members, and even members who have been recently reviewing articles. There are almost 130 members in this project and about 180 articles that currently need to be reviewed. If each member helps to review just one or two articles, the majority of the backlog will be cleared. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{ GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy. If you have any questions about this drive or the review process, leave a message on the GAC talk page. -- Nehrams2020 01:10, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi J, I'm working on this part-time but I would be the person. As per the policy on historical, all we need to do is do a little advertising and get people back at it. Actually, I don't even think it should be considered historical because there's been still quite a bit of action happening. (more than some other groups)(ie: WP:EA)(but that's another issue which I've decided we're not going to fight). I think we should advertise! Promotions,... promotions... and promotions... 3 phase marketing plan... implemented at striking 3 different levels. (give me an email and we can discuss this!) Anyways, one of the first things, is to announce vacancy position of coordinator (or should I say scapegoat!) (ie:"an election for new AMA coordinator or coordinator office.") Thanks for the message. -- CyclePat 07:06, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your posting. I am sorry but I cannot see through this by using the history as the differences are too broad and too over the place to make the issue clear. If you would, could you please post your concerns clearly on the article talk page. (If you haven't done so already, I haven't yet looked. If you have, please ignore this.)

Thanks for uploading Image:Connectedtext-diff.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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 23:36, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
A new elimination drive of the backlog at Wikipedia:Good article candidates will take place from the month of July through August 12, 2007.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pagels.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Caldera-logo.png. I notice the image 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thanks for uploading Image:Aeons.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{ GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{ non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. O sama K 12:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi there. I have userfied the deleted content per request - link above. Be mindful that this was deleted as the result of an WP:AFD so you will need to make sure that the core issued raised during the discussion are resolved in any future recreation. We also need to think about GFDL should any of the deleted content be sued in a new article - my suggestion would be that if and when you recreate it (and it is not deleted!) then we simply restore the deleted revisions from the original so that all the prior authors are correctly attributed. Good luck! Nancy talk 15:24, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Who is the IP who made new revisions? Isn't the correct procedure to jump into the Talk Page first before making changes? Thanks! Thelma Bowlen Talk 04:15, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
It is ok to get involved with editing the article? I stayed out of doing any edits, period... to show my neutrality. I am afraid that reverting the article would cause some-one to accues me of being on "the other side". How do I avoid this... I am not going to revert anything until I understand how to respond to these kinds of accusations... I don't know what to do if my netrality is put in question. Help on either would be very useful.
I see that the Perl mediation is now closed and that -Barry- has demanded the return of all of his edits and that the content dispute should be resolved by Arbitration Committee. This is rather disappointing. I'd hate to see the Perl page ruined due to the actions of two bad apples. Where can a new mediator be requested?
Also, you may also wish to correct the mention that Pudge identified -Barry- as Wassercrats. -Barry- has self-indentified himself on several occasions. Steve p 13:27, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for voting! Hello Jbolden1517/Archive2, and thank you so much for voting in my recent RfA. I am pleased to inform you that it passed with a final tally of (119/1/3), into the WP:100, so I have now been cleared for adminship and will soon be soaring above the clouds. I was overjoyed, shocked, and humbled by the tally, and, most importantly, all the support. Thank you. If there is ever anything you need, you know where you can find me. Take care. |

Uh, you recently removed the comments of User:The prophet wizard of the crayon cake from the Medcab talk page. Everyone's opinion is valid in this discussion, whether people have not had extensive mediation experience or not. Even if someone hasn't mediated before and was simply a disputant, their opinion would be valid as it would show how someone's view of the current mediation process is. If you don't mind, I think it's best if we leave the comments there as they don't hurt the discussion in any way. Cowman109 Talk 02:07, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Regardless of the lack of a positive and consensus-based outcome, I do want to thank you for your time and effort in helping the various editors. Your efforts are appreciated even if the results are not necessarily pleasing to everyone. Thanks! -- Avi 14:11, 22 June 2006 (UTC) |
I agree with Avi. I am feeling a bit bad that we cannot come to some conclusion. I actually do not have enough time to dedicate to the subject and so all I can deliver to support my claims is my emotional personal POV. And I am sorry for that.
I don't feel however, that either side is willing to let this article rest.
I may or may not return to the Messianic Judaism page. I do know that, to the goal of those that are so-called anti-missionaries, the page in its current state could not be used by any MJ as a definition of who we are as a people, neither what we believe. So at this point I feel as if they've won.
Anyway, thanks for your attempts, JBolden. Perhaps amongst ourselves one side or the other will break and something will subside. G-d's will be done.

Hi. I left a message on Cowman's talk page, but I remembered that he is busy in real life, so may I please ask you your opinion?
As a brief backgorund to the case, user:Nrtm81 wants the portal to be named Portal:Taiwan, whereas User:Chiang Kai-shek thinks that may be too political, and wants to make sure that there is no confusion that Taiwan isn't a country in it's own right.
Nrtm81 has now said "I better not keep considering things. My stance is Portal:Taiwan, no compromise on the name of the portal". He also said "Maybe it was my mistake to ask for mediation since I didn't want a change in the portal name" because of this I feel that this line of mediation has hit a dead end. I wanted to know wheather I should refer this case to Med Com, remove my comments for ArbCom, and let them deal with it (though they can't decide it's name, which is what Ntrm81 wants) or just leave the case open in case anything changes? An RfC has been filed, but so far there is no response, so I'm not holding my for any other user to come up with a compromise. As this is my first case, I would be really greatful for any help or advise that you can give me. Thank you very much. Yours, Th e Halo ( talk) 11:30, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, teach -- the kids over in Talk:Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal are at an impasse over a point and could use some input when you have a chance. Most of the pertinent discussion is contained in this section. KarlBunker 20:48, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Why is a Wikipedian permitted to use a terrorist username ( User:UpTheRa)?? In case you did not know it, "Up the 'Ra" is a pro-Irish Republican Army slogan.
This is in violation of Wikipedia rules barring "provocatine" usernames.
Why is this tolerated?? As an American, I am offended, particularly given the consensus that has emerged post-9/11. If I used an offensive term for a username. I have no doubt I would be blocked immediately.
Thank you for your attention.

(Left this message on Talk:Every Nation) Well done for all your hard work on this article. Sorry to see you go, as your commitment was a great asset to Wikipedia - I'm sure I won't be the only person to ask you to reconsider packing up for good...? David L Rattigan 08:08, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
[Moved from user page]
Well I've had enough. I came here to work on a free encylopedia but the politics of wikipedia make that impossible. I think its time to find another hobby. I'm sick and tired of day after day having do deal with cruelty that undermines every attempt to do good here.
To those of you I was mediating for that I'm dropping your cases, first off I'm really sorry. I loved mediation and I loved helping people resolve their differences and watching how much articles could improve once the editors started working together rather than againt one another. I really don't know what to tell you in terms of getting a replacement mediator. Mediation cabal is unlikely to give you the depth of commitment you need for most of the issues I took. Mediation committee is similiar to what you are used to, but I don't know that they can or will handle the extra cases. On balance that's where I would recommend you go. If I knew where to get good mediation I probably wouldn't have to leave myself. (Jbolden1517)

I was coming by to ask if you still wanted admin coaching. Well I guess the answer is no for now, so I've removed your request from the list. However, if you do decide to return (please do!) feel free to add your name (without having to wait again) to the "Unassigned" section of the coaching box, and you'll be assigned a couple of coaches as soon as they become available.

This article was first started by me and was deleted back in May '06. I was reading the punk house article and saw that the link for the TBP article was no longer red so I clicked on it and there was an article back up, started by another user. I dont know who started it because, it was deleted soon after I saw it. The decision made in the "Article for Deletion" debate should be reconsidered. The article is about a punk house not a fratenal organization. It seems that the debate, run by User:ChrisB and results were reported by User:Mailer Diablo. I will post this on their talk pages. This is the first time I have requested a deletion review so please let me know what else I need to do. If there is anything. I am on wikipedia frequently and I want to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for uploading Image:Tina 800x600.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 23:14, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
I don't have time at the moment to dig through the diffs, but if you think there's cause, I recommend that you go ahead and file a 3RR report. Instructions are here: WP:AN3RR. Let me know if you have any questions. :) -- El on ka 18:05, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Hi Jbolden1517,
Thanks very much for the review. I had a question. In the "Religion, mysticism, and mythology" section, I think "Religious figures and leaders" would be a better place. Would you please let me know what you think. Thanks -- Aminz 21:11, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
I see the use of this tag as an affirmation that the candidate either fears criticism or dislikes the consensus-building process, both of which are an every-day part of being an admin. Your comment here seems to indicate same. If you are afraid to put your reputation on the line and open yourself to public criticism, adminship might not be for you. You are, of course, still free to nominate yourself at WP:RFA. Kafziel Talk 16:29, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
Hello. I have clarified the image description. I also explained on the talk page why I think there should be a logo tag. Best, nadav 05:16, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi Jbolden1517, thanks for your note. I don't know if arbcom is the right venue. There are 2 admins,
User:Coelacan &
user:Durova who know the background of this case and have help me when it was at
the community sanction noticeboard. I've been keeping them up to date (and probably bugging them too) with Anacapa's activities in gender studies articles, if you'd like to drop Durova a line on
her talkpage she might be able to advise us on the best course of action.
There has been resistance to banning because Anacapa hasn't been blocked. IMHO if action is taken against Anacapa it will be a warning and or atmost a temporary block. Thanks again for your comments--

Hi. Some images have been added to the article and the article has been renominated for GA. Would you considered taking another look at the article sometime? Thanks. Epbr123 00:15, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
This form message is being sent to you either due to your membership with WikiProject Good Articles and/or your inclusion on the Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers. A new drive has been started requesting that all members review at least one article (or more, if you wish!) within the next two weeks at GAC to help in removing the large backlog. This message is being sent to all members, and even members who have been recently reviewing articles. There are almost 130 members in this project and about 180 articles that currently need to be reviewed. If each member helps to review just one or two articles, the majority of the backlog will be cleared. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{ GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy. If you have any questions about this drive or the review process, leave a message on the GAC talk page. -- Nehrams2020 01:10, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi J, I'm working on this part-time but I would be the person. As per the policy on historical, all we need to do is do a little advertising and get people back at it. Actually, I don't even think it should be considered historical because there's been still quite a bit of action happening. (more than some other groups)(ie: WP:EA)(but that's another issue which I've decided we're not going to fight). I think we should advertise! Promotions,... promotions... and promotions... 3 phase marketing plan... implemented at striking 3 different levels. (give me an email and we can discuss this!) Anyways, one of the first things, is to announce vacancy position of coordinator (or should I say scapegoat!) (ie:"an election for new AMA coordinator or coordinator office.") Thanks for the message. -- CyclePat 07:06, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your posting. I am sorry but I cannot see through this by using the history as the differences are too broad and too over the place to make the issue clear. If you would, could you please post your concerns clearly on the article talk page. (If you haven't done so already, I haven't yet looked. If you have, please ignore this.)

Thanks for uploading Image:Connectedtext-diff.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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 23:36, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Pagels.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
{{
di-replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Caldera-logo.png. I notice the image 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Thanks for uploading Image:Aeons.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{ GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{ non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. O sama K 12:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi there. I have userfied the deleted content per request - link above. Be mindful that this was deleted as the result of an WP:AFD so you will need to make sure that the core issued raised during the discussion are resolved in any future recreation. We also need to think about GFDL should any of the deleted content be sued in a new article - my suggestion would be that if and when you recreate it (and it is not deleted!) then we simply restore the deleted revisions from the original so that all the prior authors are correctly attributed. Good luck! Nancy talk 15:24, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
