Dear Sirs,
Please can you kindly unblock my IP.149.7.36.58 I do now understand the reasons for the bot in the first place but I am trying to rectify this matter.
I have been exchanging emails re this matter with Orange Mike and yourself Ronh Jones.
I am very clear on the 3 points from Mike re
1) Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and not a business directory 2) Conflict of interest re Ten Alps admin etc 3) Notable subjects
With the best intentions all this is new to me. I would liek to log on new name
I did read Wikipedia is drawn form Italy so you have alot going on but if you can help to resolve it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hey there - I CSD G12'd this a short while back. I still haven't found the original, but looking again I've noticed the edit summary which accompanied the first paste-in: "The page refers to a brief on Supply chain engineering its methodology and definitions". I think that's where it came from - the brief referred to. Only Ye Gods and Little Fishes may be able to track the original down! I'm going to bring this to the attention of a copyvio expert, and see if they can find it and deal with it. Hope this is OK by you. Pesky ( talk … stalk!) 03:11, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Hiya. I could do with some help regarding licencing and Wikipedia rules and regulations please. In conversation with Katie McGrath's agent I realised my lack of real knowledge regarding who may edit what, where and how. On the subject of self promotion: Katie McGrath should not edit her own page? But may her agent? May her agent upload images for use here? How should they best licence the images for their and our best interests? Since the agent is so willing to provide images and details and has a strong interest in making sure their clients are well presented (and of course accurately) it seems to me that being as helpful and accommodating as possible is a very good idea. This could lead to many pages being greatly improved. Please help by providing answers to any and all relevant questions either here or implied. Thanks a lot for your interest so far. -- fg T C 13:58, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello Ron. I see that you speedy deleted these two articles a couple of days ago for copyvio. If you check the history, you'll find that for both there was a non-copyvio version that could have been reverted to. The copyvios had recently been added in September. The reason I know about this is because I got "warned" for copyvio etc by the speedy deletion requester because I had created the Moira gunn redirect. Anyway, I think we should probably undelete and just revert to the non-copyvio version. What do you think? I can do it or you can. We always refdel the copyvio additions. -- Slp1 ( talk) 02:54, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ron I got permission from the author to use the article about Cliffside before even attempting to put it on Wikipedia, all she asked me was put a reference to the museum, which I did. She also gave me permission to use it on Facebook a few years back and gave the museum credit for it then and it's still in use on Facebook today.

There are some edits which are still pretty poor, but some are worthy of standing at present. Not many mind you. Although this chap is even worse. No edit summaries, no talkback on anything, having been warned several times about incorrect information relating to the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and the World Rally Championship. For instance, I added a reference showing that Valeriy Gorban had used Sergey Larens as co-driver in Rally Portugal here but low and behold, he couldn't admit he was wrong so he decided to remove it here. He has reverted it several times since, and until he is stopped, he won't stop. Cs-wolves (talk) 15:57, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

You tagged File:River_Alexander.jpg for deletion due to missing evidence of permission. Permission was sent late July/ Early August to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. I just forwarded this evening the original email with the file from MR. Alexander to me as a reference for you. Therefore Wikipedia somewhere does have two independent confirmations of permission. I have done my part now twice and you or another user that has access to the permissions that have been received needs to locate the emails. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Booth088 ( talk • contribs) 02:17, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Dear Ronhjones, I got a message that you are attempting to delete pictures on articles I created. These pics have been vetted and on the pages for quite some time. They have been uploaded directly for the purpose of the page and are not links to another webpage. The articles have had permissions sent to permissions and wikimedia and there is nothing wrong with them I would appreciate it if you did not delete them and cause me the extra work to re-do all my work. If you have questions or concerns please contact me directly. You can email me at rtgates210@gmail.com

Dear Ronhjones, I am in receipt of your missals demanding copyright declarations from the photographers for the images used. I have written to all of them, but in anticipation some may be away on leave, would rather the deadline was postponed for another week at least. Overall, I find the whole business extremely tedious and would rather, on the premise of 'Innocent until proven guilty', the images were allowed to remain until such time as a complaint was made. All those submitted by me are bona fide works, some of which have been on Wikipedia for many years, and this retrospective procedure is an unwelcome and tedious distraction.

Reply to all OTRS issues To all above - as per my talk at http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia:OTRS_noticeboard&oldid=458222426, I would expect these picture to be left one month before deletion - I will add such a note to each one today. If they do get deleted and you later obtain OTRS then the OTRS volunteer will ask for undelete - you do not have to upload again - normal deletion is on Wikipedia is actually removal from public view. Unless these images are tagged, they tend to be forgotten, and technically in a copyright violation until permission is proved. Ronhjones (Talk) 12:48, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Hey Ronhjones, thanks for the updates on the photos; I guess my strategy of hunting down copyright holders and enticing them into sending release forms is more like herding cats than I thought. I'll try and find some of the emails I found the owners at and ask them to resend (or send, if they flaked) the release forms. If nothing comes in fairly soon (the month, perhaps?), feel free to just delete them. Thanks! Richardo42 ( talk) 17:56, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
As far as I'm concerned, I think that now a week has passed, the not-so-desirable editing will have ceased. Having a look back to the history of Shoya Tomizawa's article, there was only one vandal edit after a week had passed. Of course, Tomizawa wasn't anywhere near as popular as Simoncelli, I think we can be pretty much safe from any possible threats. On an aside from it, thankfully I have not seen the crash again since the race programme itself, because it made me sick to the stomach watching first time around. You just knew it was bad from the moment you saw him lying on the ground without the helmet. I think most of the riders will be glad to be done with the season after Valencia on Sunday. I just hope the potential tribute that Dorna put on for him matches the honours that the cyclists gave for Wouter Weylandt in this year's Giro d'Italia, and of course, our own Dan Wheldon in the IndyCar finale. Boy, us motorsport fans have had it tough the past 15 days... Craig (talk) 16:00, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

2011 Italian Grand Prix
The 2011 Italian Grand Prix, formally known as the 2011 Gran Premio Santander d'Italia was a Formula One motor race that was held on 11 September 2011 at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy. It was the thirteenth round of the 2011 Formula One season, and the sixtieth time the Italian Grand Prix had been held at Monza. The race, contested over 53 laps, was won by Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel, the drivers' championship leader, after starting from pole position. Jenson Button finished in second place for McLaren, and Fernando Alonso completed the podium in third position for Ferrari. As a consequence of the race, Vettel extended his lead in the World Drivers' Championship to 112 points over Alonso, who moved up to second place in the championship. Button moved into third place in the championship, five points behind Alonso, and level on points with fourth-placed Mark Webber, but ahead on countback. In the World Constructors' Championship, Red Bull's championship lead was cut by McLaren to 126 points, with Ferrari a further 71 points behind in third position.

Hello Ronhjones!!
This is regarding the deletion of article Dr.Gopal Kundu. I want to inform you that, Dr.Gopal Kundu is a former scientist in National Centre for Cell Science(i.e.NCCS) located in Pune,India. He is very well known for his work. And this article comes under Biography category of wikipedia. The reason why it had been deleted before is due to, orphan article, and some of the contents of the articles are similar to www.nccs.res.in/gck.html. It is because he works there, so please don't delete his article this time.
Thanks & regards, Shrikant101 (I am a representative of Dr.Gopal Kundu)

Hi Ronhjones,
I got this message from Wikipedia:
I confess to being a bit flummoxed by how the licensing works. If I explain the situation, perhaps you would be so kind as to explain the best way to solve the problem.
The image in question is from the estate of Lawrence James Beck. He took this particular photo himself. He can't give permission to use it because he is dead. Alex and Nikolai Beck are his sons. I am their mother and his former wife. It's a bit complicated, but we all want this photo of his early work to be in the Wikipedia article. Nobody is trying to do any dastardly deeds here. But I'm having trouble sorting through all the options about how to make the posting of the photo OK. If you can possibly help me decipher the best path, I would SO much appreciate it.

Thank you for replying--situation is complicated by the fact that Larry and I were divorced before he died, so our sons hold the copyright, not me. I will read the sections you suggest. Another editor has just flagged 5 more images, so I need to figure this out. I don't mean to sound cranky, I just am swamped with a lot of other things at the moment.

I don't know whether, as the uploader of the image, you have an opinion on the copyright concerns expressed here and its removal from the article here?

Hi Ron, I saw your request on Misza's talk page and I have tweaked your parameters on Miszabot for your CSD subpage for testing purposes. I shortened to 10 days to see if October will be archived for testing...if it works then change it to whatever you want. I also changed the minthreadstoarchive to 1. Remembering that a thread must have a section header, you have two threads on that page currently...one for October and one for November. If the bot finds this page, I'm hoping to see it archive October.
Question: if you set a redirect on the CSD main page to the talk page where it archives, do you think it will write it to the talk page automatically? I'm wondering if there is a way to automate your manual moves.
Hopefully helpful,

Thanks for uploading File:Ed-Bishop.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).

Hey Ron, have you ever considered requesting OTRS access? Even if it was just to the permission queues so you can check on things tagged as OTRS pending/OTRS received, I'm sure you'd find it useful and put it to good use. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:35, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello. You left a message on my talk page about an image I uploaded to Wikipedia in 2005, "File:Gazzo6.jpg" [1]. I thought I had later mentioned it to a producer at BBC but I just don't recall. Maybe I just captured the image from the live studio webcam which was on the BBC 6music website, and edited it and uploaded it. It's a long time ago. Six years ago actually. Certainly, I didn't have an official permission of BBC. I think it's tolerable as a defensible upload, but I'm not a barrister or a legal eagle. I don't think BBC care about it. One would imagine it were the same as a still capture off a TV broadcast (Allowed: "Film and television screen shots"), but in this case it was a webcam image from a radio studio streamed on their website fleetingly. But I'm not a lawyer. So, frankly, do as you wish with it. Bests, anyway. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc ( talk) 02:42, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
Oh, I see you've taken it upon yourself to also object to the same kind of images I uploaded in 2005 from the BBC in-studio webcam, "Gazzo4.jpg" [2], and Gazzo3.jpg [3]. I tip my hat to your alacrity, sir. So do as you wish. Perhaps you're on a mission to get rid of all screen captures from Wikipedia. Good luck on your mission. Cheers again, anyway. Bests. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc ( talk) 02:53, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Why did you revert the edit? The "Because you can" slogan is prominently featured at the top of every page on their website and what was apparently the old slogan ("Right here, right now") is nowhere to be found.

Hi Ronhjones,
I'm working on a template A/B testing project with Steven Walling (details here), and we just go the go-ahead from Carnildo to test on his bot, ImageTaggingBot. Trouble is, it's really hard to rewrite image warning templates, because image copyright/licensing stuff is very complicated. We need to find a way to radically simplify the instructions in the warning, so that they make sense and are easy for a newbie to follow. Fred Gandt, one of the members of our task force who's helping us with template redesign, mentioned that you have a lot of experience with this stuff. Care to take a critical look at these messages and see if there's anything you'd like to improve? We're working in a draft space here. It would be great to get your input!
Thanks, and feel free to join our task force if you want to follow our tests and propose others that you think might be interesting :) Maryana (WMF) ( talk) 01:35, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month –
2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
The 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (formally the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix) was the eighteenth and penultimate round of the 2011 Formula One season. It was held on 13 November 2011 at the Yas Marina Circuit on Yas Island, a man-made island on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It was the third running of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. As is customary with the race, it was the only twilight Grand Prix of the 2011 Formula One season, with a start time of 17:00 local time. The race was won by McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. Second was Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, with Jenson Button coming third in the other McLaren. Sebastian Vettel, in a Red Bull- Renault, had been in pole position, but retired after a puncture in the first lap, near the second corner, which was his first retirement since the 2010 Korean Grand Prix, where he encountered a problem, with his engine. As a result, this prevented him from equalling Michael Schumacher's record of 13 wins in one season, but Vettel did equal Nigel Mansell's 1992 record of 14 pole positions in one season. This was also the first race of 2011 in which neither Red Bull finished on the podium, as Vettel's team-mate Mark Webber finished fourth.

Thanks for the protection on F1 2012; things were starting to get out of hand. I was actually hoping you might be able to protect it until December 8th (the annoucement will be made official on the 7th), but hopefully most people will have forgotten until then. And most of the regulars over on the Formula 1 pages know the rules, so they won't cause any trouble. Thanks again. Prisonermonkeys ( talk) 04:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
With regard to this particular file, I emailed the Royal Chancery of the King of Montenegro about this image and received a formal reply back from them stating the image was indeed their property and that yes Wikipedia could use it on the free license basis it uses such images. This email I then forwarded to the appropriate persons at Wikipedia who accepted it (after the first time this image had been questioned). I am therefore confused and frankly bored with this happening again. I was impressed the king's office responded to my request and I think it would be very tedious for them to have to respond again. I know Wikipedia is wanting to do the right thing but this is now pedantic. Aetheling1125 16:42, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ron,
I understand you recently deleted a bunch of content -- OUR content -- from the pages we at the Tulsa Preservation Commission created. (see below)
--- The Wikipedia page "User talk:Tulsapreservation" has been changed on 3 December 2011 by Ronhjones, with the edit summary: Notification: tagging for deletion of File:Gillettemansion.jpg. ( TW)

Here's the deal, Ron. We own that content. We wrote the content. We took the pictures. It's our stuff. And over and over and over and over, we've run into the same problem with you guys deleting our stuff. I've tried in the past to convince editors it our stuff to no avail. Love your policy -- delete first, don't ask questions later (then delete some more stuff just for kicks). At this point, I don't even care. It's been a freakin' nightmare working with everyone there. Hope your fundraising is an abysmal failure.

Hi,
I just received a notice that a photograph I uploaded some time ago had been flagged for possible deletion, and that you were the editor I should contact.
The photograph in question is an old family photo, and my brother appears in it. As I never asked my brother for permission I have since thought the better of uploading it. I would have deleted it myself long ago, but I could never figure out how to do that. So I'm actually rather pleased that it has been flagged.
Please, by all means, delete this photo, and I will thank you and feel better about things.
I've copied the email that was sent to me below for your reference.
Thank you, and thank you for all your contributions to Wikipedia.

Hey there - I CSD G12'd this a short while back. I still haven't found the original, but looking again I've noticed the edit summary which accompanied the first paste-in: "The page refers to a brief on Supply chain engineering its methodology and definitions". I think that's where it came from - the brief referred to. Only Ye Gods and Little Fishes may be able to track the original down!

Hiya. I could do with some help regarding licencing and Wikipedia rules and regulations please. In conversation with Katie McGrath's agent I realised my lack of real knowledge regarding who may edit what, where and how. On the subject of self promotion: Katie McGrath should not edit her own page? But may her agent? May her agent upload images for use here? How should they best licence the images for their and our best interests? Since the agent is so willing to provide images and details and has a strong interest in making sure their clients are well presented (and of course accurately) it seems to me that being as helpful and accommodating as possible is a very good idea. This could lead to many pages being greatly improved. Please help by providing answers to any and all relevant questions either here or implied. Thanks a lot for your interest so far. -- fg T C 13:58, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Hello Ron. I see that you speedy deleted these two articles a couple of days ago for copyvio. If you check the history, you'll find that for both there was a non-copyvio version that could have been reverted to. The copyvios had recently been added in September. The reason I know about this is because I got "warned" for copyvio etc by the speedy deletion requester because I had created the Moira gunn redirect. Anyway, I think we should probably undelete and just revert to the non-copyvio version. What do you think? I can do it or you can. We always refdel the copyvio additions. -- Slp1 ( talk) 02:54, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ron I got permission from the author to use the article about Cliffside before even attempting to put it on Wikipedia, all she asked me was put a reference to the museum, which I did.

There are some edits which are still pretty poor, but some are worthy of standing at present. Not many mind you. Although this chap is even worse. No edit summaries, no talkback on anything, having been warned several times about incorrect information relating to the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and the World Rally Championship. For instance, I added a reference showing that Valeriy Gorban had used Sergey Larens as co-driver in Rally Portugal here but low and behold, he couldn't admit he was wrong so he decided to remove it here. He has reverted it several times since, and until he is stopped, he won't stop. Cs-wolves (talk) 15:57, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Yes he has edited since he blanked the article, but only after a careless vandalfighter reverted his blanking of the page and gave him a vandal warning (!).

You tagged File:River_Alexander.jpg for deletion due to missing evidence of permission. Permission was sent late July/ Early August to permissions-en@wikimedia.org. I just forwarded this evening the original email with the file from MR. Alexander to me as a reference for you. Therefore Wikipedia somewhere does have two independent confirmations of permission.

The articles have had permissions sent to permissions and wikimedia and there is nothing wrong with them I would appreciate it if you did not delete them and cause me the extra work to re-do all my work. If you have questions or concerns please contact me directly. You can email me at rtgates210@gmail.com

Dear Ronhjones, I am in receipt of your missals demanding copyright declarations from the photographers for the images used. I have written to all of them, but in anticipation some may be away on leave, would rather the deadline was postponed for another week at least. Overall, I find the whole business extremely tedious and would rather, on the premise of 'Innocent until proven guilty', the images were allowed to remain until such time as a complaint was made. All those submitted by me are bona fide works, some of which have been on Wikipedia for many years, and this retrospective procedure is an unwelcome and tedious distraction. Regards, Ptelea ( talk) 12:11, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Reply to all OTRS issues To all above - as per my talk at http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Wikipedia:OTRS_noticeboard&oldid=458222426, I would expect these picture to be left one month before deletion - I will add such a note to each one today. If they do get deleted and you later obtain OTRS then the OTRS volunteer will ask for undelete - you do not have to upload again - normal deletion is on Wikipedia is actually removal from public view. Unless these images are tagged, they tend to be forgotten, and technically in a copyright violation until permission is proved. Ronhjones (Talk) 12:48, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Hey Ronhjones, thanks for the updates on the photos; I guess my strategy of hunting down copyright holders and enticing them into sending release forms is more like herding cats than I thought. I'll try and find some of the emails I found the owners at and ask them to resend (or send, if they flaked) the release forms. If nothing comes in fairly soon (the month, perhaps?), feel free to just delete them. Thanks! Richardo42 ( talk) 17:56, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
As far as I'm concerned, I think that now a week has passed, the not-so-desirable editing will have ceased. Having a look back to the history of Shoya Tomizawa's article, there was only one vandal edit after a week had passed. Of course, Tomizawa wasn't anywhere near as popular as Simoncelli, I think we can be pretty much safe from any possible threats. On an aside from it, thankfully I have not seen the crash again since the race programme itself, because it made me sick to the stomach watching first time around. You just knew it was bad from the moment you saw him lying on the ground without the helmet. I think most of the riders will be glad to be done with the season after Valencia on Sunday. I just hope the potential tribute that Dorna put on for him matches the honours that the cyclists gave for Wouter Weylandt in this year's Giro d'Italia, and of course, our own Dan Wheldon in the IndyCar finale. Boy, us motorsport fans have had it tough the past 15 days... Craig (talk) 16:00, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

2011 Italian Grand Prix
The 2011 Italian Grand Prix, formally known as the 2011 Gran Premio Santander d'Italia was a Formula One motor race that was held on 11 September 2011 at the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy. It was the thirteenth round of the 2011 Formula One season, and the sixtieth time the Italian Grand Prix had been held at Monza. The race, contested over 53 laps, was won by Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel, the drivers' championship leader, after starting from pole position. Jenson Button finished in second place for McLaren, and Fernando Alonso completed the podium in third position for Ferrari. As a consequence of the race, Vettel extended his lead in the World Drivers' Championship to 112 points over Alonso, who moved up to second place in the championship. Button moved into third place in the championship, five points behind Alonso, and level on points with fourth-placed Mark Webber, but ahead on countback. In the World Constructors' Championship, Red Bull's championship lead was cut by McLaren to 126 points, with Ferrari a further 71 points behind in third position.

Hello Ronhjones!!
This is regarding the deletion of article Dr.Gopal Kundu. I want to inform you that, Dr.Gopal Kundu is a former scientist in National Centre for Cell Science(i.e.NCCS) located in Pune,India. He is very well known for his work. And this article comes under Biography category of wikipedia. The reason why it had been deleted before is due to, orphan article, and some of the contents of the articles are similar to www.nccs.res.in/gck.html. It is because he works there, so please don't delete his article this time.
Thanks & regards, Shrikant101 (I am a representative of Dr.Gopal Kundu)
My point about this is the attempt to break the communication between spammers and targets, the deletion fulfil it, a simple blanking doesn't...have a nice day! -- Vituzzu ( talk) 21:56, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ronhjones,
I got this message from Wikipedia:
I confess to being a bit flummoxed by how the licensing works. If I explain the situation, perhaps you would be so kind as to explain the best way to solve the problem.
The image in question is from the estate of Lawrence James Beck. He took this particular photo himself. He can't give permission to use it because he is dead. Alex and Nikolai Beck are his sons. I am their mother and his former wife. It's a bit complicated, but we all want this photo of his early work to be in the Wikipedia article. Nobody is trying to do any dastardly deeds here. But I'm having trouble sorting through all the options about how to make the posting of the photo OK. If you can possibly help me decipher the best path, I would SO much appreciate it.
Best regards, bienrecu aka Diane Schenker — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bienrecu ( talk • contribs) 01:17, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for replying--situation is complicated by the fact that Larry and I were divorced before he died, so our sons hold the copyright, not me. I will read the sections you suggest. Another editor has just flagged 5 more images, so I need to figure this out. I don't mean to sound cranky, I just am swamped with a lot of other things at the moment. I've asked Nik and Alex to pitch in and try to help me sort it out. Thanks again for your kind help. Best, 144.211.101.117 ( talk) 14:21, 11 November 2011 (UTC) Diane Schenker aka bienrecu

Hi there. As a file worker, I'd like your input on the idea of a noticeboard for file workers. The prototype is at Wikipedia:Village pump (idea lab)#File Namespace Noticeboard.
Please comment at the VPIL thread, or edit the page linked to there directly, as I can't keep track of this conversation if everyone I invite to comment on the matter responds on their own talk pages. Sven Manguard Wha? 07:43, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
I don't know whether, as the uploader of the image, you have an opinion on the copyright concerns expressed here and its removal from the article here? The dispute seems to relate more to how well Bishop is illustrated in the image - I'm not sure whether the user has a point or not. Super Mario Man 13:00, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ron, I saw your request on Misza's talk page and I have tweaked your parameters on Miszabot for your CSD subpage for testing purposes. I shortened to 10 days to see if October will be archived for testing...if it works then change it to whatever you want. I also changed the minthreadstoarchive to 1. Remembering that a thread must have a section header, you have two threads on that page currently...one for October and one for November. If the bot finds this page, I'm hoping to see it archive October.
Question: if you set a redirect on the CSD main page to the talk page where it archives, do you think it will write it to the talk page automatically? I'm wondering if there is a way to automate your manual moves.
Hopefully helpful,

Thanks for uploading File:Ed-Bishop.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).

I agree with your concern and tagged it for deletion. Thanks for the svg diagram!

Regarding this block:
"You can still read pages, but you cannot edit, move, or create them. Editing from 132.3.37.68 has been disabled by Ronhjones for the following reason(s):
Vandalism This block has been set to expire: 23:02, 20 November 2011."
I am unaware of any actions on my part which would constitute vandalism and I feel insulted that you would block my IP frivolously.
Since your block eliminated my ability to ask you what had put your nose out of joint I have had to wait until it expired to inquire. Now that it has expired and I can finally seek the motive for your behaviour: Exactly what "Vandalism" did you observe from my IP that you conclude required you to take the rude uncalled for step of placing a block upon my IP? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.3.37.68 ( talk) 20:14, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
This "user" has no talk page to post "19 warnings" so where you get that from I will never know. That you are adding the USAF to the line is less than helpful as it means nothing to me that you associate a range of IP addresses with a service however I find your tone of we wil block you without citing even one instance of "vandalism" wrong. Be specific what are you saying is vandalism? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.3.37.68 ( talk) 14:22, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello. You left a message on my talk page about an image I uploaded to Wikipedia in 2005, "File:Gazzo6.jpg" [1]. I thought I had later mentioned it to a producer at BBC but I just don't recall. Maybe I just captured the image from the live studio webcam which was on the BBC 6music website, and edited it and uploaded it. It's a long time ago. Six years ago actually. Certainly, I didn't have an official permission of BBC. I think it's tolerable as a defensible upload, but I'm not a barrister or a legal eagle. I don't think BBC care about it. One would imagine it were the same as a still capture off a TV broadcast (Allowed: "Film and television screen shots"), but in this case it was a webcam image from a radio studio streamed on their website fleetingly. But I'm not a lawyer. So, frankly, do as you wish with it. Bests, anyway. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc ( talk) 02:42, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
Oh, I see you've taken it upon yourself to also object to the same kind of images I uploaded in 2005 from the BBC in-studio webcam, "Gazzo4.jpg" [2], and Gazzo3.jpg [3]. I tip my hat to your alacrity, sir. So do as you wish. Perhaps you're on a mission to get rid of all screen captures from Wikipedia. Good luck on your mission. Cheers again, anyway. Bests. --- (Bob) Wikiklrsc ( talk) 02:53, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Why did you revert the edit? The "Because you can" slogan is prominently featured at the top of every page on their website and what was apparently the old slogan ("Right here, right now") is nowhere to be found.

Hi Ronhjones,
I'm working on a template A/B testing project with Steven Walling (details here), and we just go the go-ahead from Carnildo to test on his bot, ImageTaggingBot. Trouble is, it's really hard to rewrite image warning templates, because image copyright/licensing stuff is very complicated. We need to find a way to radically simplify the instructions in the warning, so that they make sense and are easy for a newbie to follow. Fred Gandt, one of the members of our task force who's helping us with template redesign, mentioned that you have a lot of experience with this stuff. Care to take a critical look at these messages and see if there's anything you'd like to improve? We're working in a draft space here. It would be great to get your input!
Thanks, and feel free to join our task force if you want to follow our tests and propose others that you think might be interesting :) Maryana (WMF) ( talk) 01:35, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
The 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (formally the Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix) was the eighteenth and penultimate round of the 2011 Formula One season. It was held on 13 November 2011 at the Yas Marina Circuit on Yas Island, a man-made island on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. It was the third running of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. As is customary with the race, it was the only twilight Grand Prix of the 2011 Formula One season, with a start time of 17:00 local time. The race was won by McLaren's Lewis Hamilton. Second was Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, with Jenson Button coming third in the other McLaren. Sebastian Vettel, in a Red Bull- Renault, had been in pole position, but retired after a puncture in the first lap, near the second corner, which was his first retirement since the 2010 Korean Grand Prix, where he encountered a problem, with his engine. As a result, this prevented him from equalling Michael Schumacher's record of 13 wins in one season, but Vettel did equal Nigel Mansell's 1992 record of 14 pole positions in one season. This was also the first race of 2011 in which neither Red Bull finished on the podium, as Vettel's team-mate Mark Webber finished fourth.

Thanks for the protection on F1 2012; things were starting to get out of hand. I was actually hoping you might be able to protect it until December 8th (the annoucement will be made official on the 7th), but hopefully most people will have forgotten until then. And most of the regulars over on the Formula 1 pages know the rules, so they won't cause any trouble. Thanks again. Prisonermonkeys ( talk) 04:58, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
With regard to this particular file, I emailed the Royal Chancery of the King of Montenegro about this image and received a formal reply back from them stating the image was indeed their property and that yes Wikipedia could use it on the free license basis it uses such images. This email I then forwarded to the appropriate persons at Wikipedia who accepted it (after the first time this image had been questioned). I am therefore confused and frankly bored with this happening again. I was impressed the king's office responded to my request and I think it would be very tedious for them to have to respond again. I know Wikipedia is wanting to do the right thing but this is now pedantic. Aetheling1125 16:42, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Ron,
I understand you recently deleted a bunch of content -- OUR content -- from the pages we at the Tulsa Preservation Commission created. (see below)
--- The Wikipedia page "User talk:Tulsapreservation" has been changed on 3 December 2011 by Ronhjones, with the edit summary: Notification: tagging for deletion of File:Gillettemansion.jpg. ( TW)

Here's the deal, Ron. We own that content. We wrote the content. We took the pictures. It's our stuff. And over and over and over and over, we've run into the same problem with you guys deleting our stuff. I've tried in the past to convince editors it our stuff to no avail. Love your policy -- delete first, don't ask questions later (then delete some more stuff just for kicks). At this point, I don't even care. It's been a freakin' nightmare working with everyone there.

Hi,
I just received a notice that a photograph I uploaded some time ago had been flagged for possible deletion, and that you were the editor I should contact.
The photograph in question is an old family photo, and my brother appears in it. As I never asked my brother for permission I have since thought the better of uploading it. I would have deleted it myself long ago, but I could never figure out how to do that. So I'm actually rather pleased that it has been flagged.
Please, by all means, delete this photo, and I will thank you and feel better about things.
I've copied the email that was sent to me below for your reference.
Thank you, and thank you for all your contributions to Wikipedia.
