Hello Ke4roh, welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for all your contributions. Here are some useful links in case you haven't already found them:
If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Thank you for the message about Image:Les Misérables program.jpg. I try give as much information as possible on image description pages. I've added the fair use message. Since this is a fairly low quality (and small) scan, I think it should be okay. -- Minesweeper 12:48, Feb 17, 2004 (UTC)
We indeed have permission to use both photographs on the Dubai article. WhisperToMe 02:55, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Duly moved, per request. Since it was just a plain redirect, you or anyone else could have taken care of it with the "move" command -- although I quite understand that you were leery if you've never done that kind of stuff before. Done, anyway. 73s, –Hajor 23:42, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for the inquiry about details for Image:Olympic flame.jpg. I've added the name of the specific Cincinnati suburb, North College Hill, since there's an article for it, and added the date, but I only remember that the runner's name was John.
I took the photo, so if I can tell you anything else, please let me know. Rdikeman 14:58, Jul 5, 2004 (UTC)
I disagree. Those were original NASA diagrams from the time of the moon landing or before. I believe leaving them as they were gives a feeling of the time. Rusty 01:04, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Re: your comments on Image:Fog-towerbridge.700px.jpg. I've added that the photograph was taken looking south across Tower Bridge. It must have been at about 8pm, roughly. I'd finished work at 6pm, and because the weather was so atmospheric, went for a walk around the city on my way up to a party in Islington.
As for where the people were going, I really don't know. I seem to recall that most of the people out that night were tourists... but where they were planning to see in the New Year, I can't guess. London doesn't really have a formal New Year celebration - people often congregate in Trafalgar Square, but the Police don't much like it, and there's nothing to see there (though if you're in the centre of the square, you can just about see the Clock Tower that contains Big Ben). - MykReeve 16:56, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, i've nominated you for an admin, you can accept it by going to Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship -- GeneralPatton 22:21, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi Ke4roh, Are you formally withdrawing your nomination for now? I don't want to remove it unless you explicitely are. Thanks, -- Cecropia | Talk 15:33, 11 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I replied to your comment on my talk page. Brian Kendig 04:02, 13 Jul 2004 (UTC)
(re: Asheville Photo) Hey man. :) I went back to the archives and found that it was taken January 8th, 2003 at 11:39 am, which i've updated the photo info for. Hope this helps! zen 02:43, 14 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi. I added some more comments on the image pages. However, I am not japanese and can't read japanese, so i couldn't answer all of your questions. Hope the little info helps. Happy editing -- Chris 73 | Talk 13:18, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Nice job on the re-arrangement of the Rosetta Stone page. I stumbled across it and had to add some more history, you cleaned up the page. Wizzy 17:12, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I've started a new project Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions, and I invite comment on it before linking to it from the usual places. -- ke4roh 05:31, Jul 18, 2004 (UTC)
It is a great idea, I’d be happy to support it. -- GeneralPatton 05:36, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I see you are also a member of the WikiProject Space Missions. Is that still an active project? I've been trying to update various space missions to reflect the project recommendations. If it is still active, I would like to join this project, also. Rusty 03:12, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I had a look at the project page - good stuff. I'll keep an eye out for poorly-written captions and fix them as I edit articles. I do want to raise a couple of warning flags, however:
I guess my own opinion is that captions should succinctly describe the images to which they're attached, and leave everything else to the article itself. I do approve of your effort to make the captions more detailed and put them into full sentences, and I'll help in that effort. Please don't be discouraged by my suggestions, I think you've got a terrific effort going in a great direction - just, don't go overboard! - Brian Kendig 15:58, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Ke4roh, you've made errors, of grammar and of fact, in editing a few captions. Please be more careful. 81.168.80.170 21:31, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi Ke4roh, thanks for your comment on my talk page. A number of interesting points were raised above. Maybe we should move some of these discussions to the project talk page? Cheers,
Deepak 16:17, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hi, I could not find the picture either :-(
My guess is that they have restructured their web site, and removed weapons-related issues. I could only find a black and white image of a bomb blast. As the source for that image appears to be gone, I'll check out DOD for a replacement. -- Magnus Manske 09:38, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)
Thank you for welcoming me to the Captions Project. After some reflection, it appears that complete sentences are in many (or even most) cases worthwhile. -- Emsworth 15:21, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I'm sorry, I know nothing about the image except that I originally found it on Wikipedia, and renamed it so as to avoid a clash with an image that I uploaded. It was originally titled: Rainbow.jpg, and was uploaded by some anonymous user on 20 July, 2002. On 19 January I uploaded a similarly-named file, unaware that it overwrote this one, and when I discovered that, I renamed it Rainbow1.jpb. As I am not the one who originally uploaded it, I cannot vouch for its PD-status. There is no information available with it, so I presume it to be PD. I'm sorry I can't give you any more help than that. David Cannon 01:22, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, Noldoaran, thanks for your welcome some months back - the links have been useful. I thought I might ask you for feedback on Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions before I link to it from the usual places. I'd certainly appreciate your comments, and I'd be honored to have you as a participant if you're willing. Thanks for looking! -- ke4roh 05:26, Jul 18, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for your kind words about my caption on the Palm Sunday Tornado Outbreak. I'm not going to formally join the Wikiproject - I've already got too much to do! - but will be keeping an eye out and may dip into the project page from time to time to see what needs to be done. On that note, would you mind having a look at my caption for Rock, Paper, Scissors? I've marked it as done but now I'm not sure it's all that great. -- ALargeElk | Talk 10:26, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, I have restocked the standbys for Captions on Template:Opentask. My selections were random. Please feel free to re-stock to serve your Wikiproject's needs. Thanks. -- PFHLai 02:28, 2004 Aug 6 (UTC)
Thanks! I pulled some off the list since they didn't have pictures or didn't need much help (in which case I just fixed them up as long as I was there). I don't suppose there's much use in keeping a long (>5) list of articles in the queue because the project is sufficiently dynamic and we only knock off one or two a week from opentask, anyway. -- ke4roh 03:32, Aug 6, 2004 (UTC)
Please go here: Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Image:TrangBang.jpg and add a comment if you could. I'm trying to get this out of wikipedia ASAP, and your comments would help. — マイケル ₪ 17:52, Aug 7, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads-up about Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions. I'll certainly give due consideration to the advice set out on those pages when captioning photos — and then maybe if I get into the swing of the thing I'll formally sign up. Here's an URL that you might find of use (largely oriented towards the newspaper industry, but there's some rescuable info there). Re your absence from Current events: hadn't noticed, I was away for most of last month (but Current events is def. a good place to take a break from if you don't want the stressometer rising too high). Got a heck of a Watchlist to work my way through... Best, –Hajor 03:14, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hi Ke4roh,
Many items on the Captions line at Template:Opentask have been there for many days already. I don't know which ones are done to your satisfaction, which ones need more help, etc. Shall I "refresh" the line ?
-- PFHLai 15:09, 2004 Aug 20 (UTC)
Hi,
I saw you took emacs off the Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions list because you'd seen a caption the day before. I had just put emacs back on the list because I wrote the caption but it had since gotten moved into the article body. At least I think that's the order of events. Would you please take a look at the caption and re-do it if you think appropriate? I don't see anything wrong with leaving the text in the article body as well, but I'll leave that to you too. Thanks. -- Kop 20:40, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I've restored your caption, but I don't like it because it's not direct enough. Basically, I changed it to my caption because it packs in more information, and still leads the reader into the story. Incidently, I couldn't work out who'd commented on my page because you didn't sign your comment - I had to go to the history to work this out. Signing who you are would be appreciated in future. - Ta bu shi da yu 10:57, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Have a look at User talk:Arpingstone please - Adrian Pingstone 19:26, 4 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Hello. I just wanna say that adding the "Captions" line on "Opentask" was a great idea.
Cheers ! :-)

Yes I did mean "vincinty". User:Patricknoddy User talk:Patricknoddy 16:33 August 23, MMIV (EDT)
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man ( comment| talk)
you need to add a religion section in the Marshall, TX article. Its a joke that their isn't one now. I think it was diliberately excluded by the person that wrote it.
I'd like to offer to nominate you for adminship, if you want it and would accept. I think you've come a long ways since that last nomination of yours, and I think you'd make a good candidate. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 22:10, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
The talk pages or other sources indicate you have in the past participated in discussions regarding whether to put a Native American name translation in the introductory sentence of articles on Arizona cities. We are currently having a vote on this issue at Talk:Tucson, Arizona#VOTE HERE. Please come by and weigh in. Thanks. -- Gary D 00:48, Dec 16, 2004 (UTC)
Hi, I saw the image on the front page, and read your comments. Internet Explorer can show PNG transparency, but won't do it as other browsers do. So don't worry about fixing it for IE.
I would keep it as it is, i.e., just make sure it looks right on Moz/Konqueror, and either Microsoft will change IE7 to support png transparency in a 'normal' way, or, I guess, the guys who write MediaWiki will write a hack some time in the future. PNG is the best format for those smoothe edges.
Just my opinion and advice. JamesHoadley 06:51, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I've listed the NASA image Image:STS-51-L-T 73.jpg, uploaded by you, for deletion as it seems to be orphaned and also a bit too messy to be used in any article. Hope this is OK. Mysid (talk) 06:56, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
It would seem that various images I contributed a couple of years ago have been superceded by other versions of essentially the same picture. If this is the case, I certainly won't object to the deletion, provided that the image description page for the new image contains at least as much information as the one I worked on. -- ke4roh 08:41, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
Please see the discussion at Category talk:Amateur Radio Operator for a discussion on how to identify Hams and Ham personalities on Wikipedia. Steve Kd4ttc 02:28, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I have commented on it. Good catch on the duplicate photo, but I will be uploading a new version of the file (hopefully) soon, since this one isn't very clear in what represents EF5 damage. Thanks for letting me know! Runningonbrains 22:59, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Hello. I see that you have listed yourself as a licensed Amateur radio operator. Please consider taking a look at a proposal to setup a WikiProject Amatateur radio. Thank you. -- StuffOfInterest 18:42, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
Way back in August 2004 you voted to de-feature Crushing by elephant ( [1]) due to a lack of sourcing. It's now been substantially rewritten and expanded with much new material, and I've proposed it for restoration to FA status - see Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Crushing by elephant. I'd be interested to know what you think of the revised article. -- ChrisO 19:02, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
DUDE. not quite sure who you are and what you have to do with this hooverwarrant image? I own the hard copy and uploaded with my housemate paul (P123). We didn't put the correct licensing onthere, so it was returned and then Paul, my housemate re-loaded it under his wiki id... THEN< WE decided that it should be under my wiki id for the purpose of authentication, since i own the actual 1961 document and my housemate does not have access unless i allow it, so we re-loaded the image under MY wiki name. What the hell does any of this have to do with you? You can't verify it... i own the hard copy.
so, i'll tell you what... if you're approached for authentication, you won't have access to my property. Nor have you ever seen this before you entered this page. In addition, if you want to upload gov't documents, get them from the FBI... not wiki re-loads from images that have already been uploaded by the owner of the authentic 1961 hard copy, me, sarah daugherty. got it? and p123, my houemate will tell you the same.
what was the point of THAT? -- SarahMdaugherty 15:28, January 23, 2007
________________________________________________________-------- OKOK. sorry. i see that the photo of the original fbi file is HUGE, and not the thumbnail i thought it was. Sigh. When my housemate comes home, i'll ask him to fixit. I'm not good at computers. I am very very sorry. It's just that i'm very attached to the "things" i collect, and was estatic that upon researching,that this FBI robert williams THING had significance to others. I'm sorry. We'll fix it. l, sarah m. daugherty thank you for trying to help. i'm new to wikipedia. sigh. not making friends with giant scanned THINGS and getting mad at ppl who try to help. sorry.-- smd "ms. fixit." 01:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC)SarahMdaugherty sorry.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________thank you for fixing the image and adding the portrait near the title as well. :) it's beautifully done... and i'm not good at computers. so thank! sarah.

Hi! I noticed your involvement on U.S. South-related articles, categories and WikiProjects, and I wanted to let you know about a bid we're formulating to get next year's Wikimania held in Atlanta! If you would like to help, be sure to sign your name to the "In Atlanta" section of the Southeast team portion of the bid if you're in town, or to the "Outside Atlanta" section if you still want to help but don't live in the city or the suburbs.

I like the work you did with Image:Teacher_in_Space_Project_McAuliffe_and_Morgan_selected_small.jpg (removing border and color balancing), but it would be better to only have the 640x480 image (minus the border, of course) because MediaWiki can do automatic resizing. There is a 640x480 at commons:Image:Teacher_in_Space_Project_McAuliffe_and_Morgan_selected_small.jpg (it's not actually small) but it's not cropped or color balanced. Would you be willing to upload a full size version with your fixes? Thanks very much. Superm401 - Talk 00:59, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Lockhart,_Alabama_post_office.jpg. 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, then 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, then 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:Fair use, 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 02:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 02:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed that you are a member of the Space missions WikiProject. A couple of weeks ago, I proposed that the Space missions and Space travellers projects, which both appear to be inactive be merged into the Human Spaceflight project. Whilst this is being done, the capitalisation of the Human spaceflight project's title would also be corrected (ie. Human Spaceflight → Human spaceflight). The projects are all doing the same/very similar things, and in my opinion, a single, larger, project would be more effective than three smaller, and somewhat inactive projects.. In light of very little response to messages on the project talk pages, I am now sending this message to all members of all three projects, inviting them to discuss the proposal on the Human Spaceflight project's talk page. I would appreciate your opinion on this. Thanks. --GW_Simulations User Page | Talk 21:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Doctor sonic screwdriver.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).

Hello! As an member editor of one or more of the Spaceflight, Human spaceflight, Unmanned spaceflight, Timeline of spaceflight or Space colonisation WikiProjects, I'd like to draw to your attention a proposal I have made with regards to the future of the spaceflight-related portals, which can be found at Portal talk:Spaceflight#Portal merge. I'd very much appreciate any suggestions or feedback you'd be able to offer! Many thanks,
Delivered by MessageDeliveryBot on behalf of WikiProject Human spaceflight at 08:47, 9 November 2010 (UTC).
Hello there! As part of an effort to determine how many active editors are present in the spaceflight-related WikiProjects, I have made some changes to the list of members of WikiProject Human spaceflight. If you still consider yourself to be an active editor in this project, I would be grateful if you would please edit the list so that your name is not struck out - thus a clearer idea of the critical mass of editors can be determined. Many thanks in advance!

Hello there! As you may or may not be aware, a recent discussion on the future of the Space-related WikiProjects has concluded, leading to the abolition of WP:SPACE and leading to a major reorganisation of WP:SPACEFLIGHT. It would be much appreciated if you would like to participate in the various ongoing discussions at the reorganisation page and the WikiProject Spaceflight talk page. If you are a member of one of WP:SPACEFLIGHT's child projects but not WP:SPACEFLIGHT itself, it would also be very useful if you could please add your name to the member list here. Many thanks!

Just wanted to let you know, I tweaked SA-500F a bit and have nominated it for DYK with you as sole creator. With any luck, in a week or so it will appear on the front page and shine a bit of well-deserved light on this key piece of space history. I rarely nominate articles by other editors but this one certainly caught my attention. - Dravecky ( talk) 07:31, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
On 19 February 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article SA-500D, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that NASA engineers shook a Saturn V test vehicle (S-IC stage pictured) for over 400 hours to ensure it would withstand the rigors of launch? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

I note your support offered on this user's talk page, and do not disagree with the view expressed. But it is better not to post unblock requests on behalf of another editor. (Although I have left it undisturbed). It is preferable to contact the blocking admin directly, perhaps advising the blocked user simultaneously. Best wishes. -- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 17:08, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
You can try editing BlankMap-World-180E.svg but it's SVG. – HTD ( ITN: Where no updates but is stickied happens.) 18:12, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi! Regarding your edit summary here I would like to explain. First of all I rescued that paragraph from three months ago when it had been deleted. Nobody else seemed to have noticed it, but the wording of the second (then first) paragraph screamed to me that prior content was missing, so I went history hunting. Anyway, after restoring the content I did my usual check of that editor's history. I noted that he had made a post to the article's talk page. I realized he had a point; the first sentence says the sauce was made of fish, so why would they name it for tomatoes? Since there is no citation for the assertion, and since there seems to be some etymological debate further along in the article, I decided to simply remove the sentence because it did not follow the context of the previous sentence. In other words, it made "no sense" when taken together with the previous sentence- I never said it was "nonsense" which has a more negative shade of meaning. Hope this clears things up. I'm off to post some {{ cn}} tags in the section because the lack of references is annoying me. Happy editing! — Elipongo ( Talk contribs) 01:54, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
I endorse your nuanced comment here. In the context your diff creates, please review Fukushima Nuclear Accident Log, March 2011. Should the words "nuclear accident log" be lower-case? -- Tenmei ( talk) 19:32, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Do you know this phrase: "You're either part of the problem or part of the solution." My first sentences endorses your talk page diff because it seemed constructive.
When I did try to be "bold", I sought your comments because we were, in a sense, already "on the same page." Also, this "heads up" was prudent and practical -- just in case my edits were perceived as controversial.
I see now that it would have been better to leave the first single sentence diff as it was; and then I should have added a second short sentence diff below it. -- Tenmei ( talk) 20:35, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:NCMLS logo.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Eeekster ( talk) 02:32, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
Hi, just to let you know, my strongest possible oppose comment at the mistakenly transcluded RFA in your name was nothing to do with your contributions, it was in reference to the nominator. I realize this whole thing had little to do with you and suggest you simply ignore it and take your time and apply when you feel ready or if someone you respect offers to nominate you, happy holidays and best regards, Off2riorob ( talk) 18:33, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I have nominated you to become an Administrator. You can find the page here: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Ke4roh — Preceding unsigned comment added by Who Am I Why Am I Here ( talk • contribs) 15:48, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I wouldn't go through with this if I were you, especially not with that user as a nominator. Their only edit to a Wikipedia article is this [2] bit of vandalism. Also, during the time it was live I was reviewing your edits. You seem fine as a contributor of content, but I don't see any experience in administrative areas. No edits at all to WP:AIV, no speedy deletion nominations, no requests for page protection. I think you should just stay the course with what you have been doing. Not every user needs the admin toolset, and the community tends to be tough at RFA on users who don't have experience in admin areas. Beeblebrox ( talk) 18:19, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I'll get around to writing that up. But remember that you will have to deal with the most obnoxious and rude people imaginable on RfA. If you think that is going to get to you, this won't be worth it. On the other hand, if it will not, by all means. Prodego talk 22:35, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for the message about Image:Les Misérables program.jpg. I try give as much information as possible on image description pages. I've added the fair use message. Since this is a fairly low quality (and small) scan, I think it should be okay. -- Minesweeper 12:48, Feb 17, 2004 (UTC)
We indeed have permission to use both photographs on the Dubai article. WhisperToMe 02:55, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Duly moved, per request. Since it was just a plain redirect, you or anyone else could have taken care of it with the "move" command -- although I quite understand that you were leery if you've never done that kind of stuff before. Done, anyway. 73s, –Hajor 23:42, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for the inquiry about details for Image:Olympic flame.jpg. I've added the name of the specific Cincinnati suburb, North College Hill, since there's an article for it, and added the date, but I only remember that the runner's name was John.
I took the photo, so if I can tell you anything else, please let me know. Rdikeman 14:58, Jul 5, 2004 (UTC)
I disagree. Those were original NASA diagrams from the time of the moon landing or before. I believe leaving them as they were gives a feeling of the time. Rusty 01:04, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Re: your comments on Image:Fog-towerbridge.700px.jpg. I've added that the photograph was taken looking south across Tower Bridge. It must have been at about 8pm, roughly. I'd finished work at 6pm, and because the weather was so atmospheric, went for a walk around the city on my way up to a party in Islington.
As for where the people were going, I really don't know. I seem to recall that most of the people out that night were tourists... but where they were planning to see in the New Year, I can't guess. London doesn't really have a formal New Year celebration - people often congregate in Trafalgar Square, but the Police don't much like it, and there's nothing to see there (though if you're in the centre of the square, you can just about see the Clock Tower that contains Big Ben). - MykReeve 16:56, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, i've nominated you for an admin, you can accept it by going to Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship -- GeneralPatton 22:21, 10 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Hi. I added some more comments on the image pages. However, I am not japanese and can't read japanese, so i couldn't answer all of your questions. Hope the little info helps. Happy editing -- Chris 73 | Talk 13:18, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Nice job on the re-arrangement of the Rosetta Stone page. I stumbled across it and had to add some more history, you cleaned up the page. Wizzy 17:12, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I've started a new project Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions, and I invite comment on it before linking to it from the usual places. -- ke4roh 05:31, Jul 18, 2004 (UTC)
It is a great idea, I’d be happy to support it. -- GeneralPatton 05:36, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I see you are also a member of the WikiProject Space Missions. Is that still an active project? I've been trying to update various space missions to reflect the project recommendations. If it is still active, I would like to join this project, also. Rusty 03:12, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I had a look at the project page - good stuff. I'll keep an eye out for poorly-written captions and fix them as I edit articles. I do want to raise a couple of warning flags, however:
I guess my own opinion is that captions should succinctly describe the images to which they're attached, and leave everything else to the article itself. I do approve of your effort to make the captions more detailed and put them into full sentences, and I'll help in that effort. Please don't be discouraged by my suggestions, I think you've got a terrific effort going in a great direction - just, don't go overboard! - Brian Kendig 15:58, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Ke4roh, you've made errors, of grammar and of fact, in editing a few captions. Please be more careful. 81.168.80.170 21:31, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi Ke4roh, thanks for your comment on my talk page. A number of interesting points were raised above. Maybe we should move some of these discussions to the project talk page? Cheers,
Deepak 16:17, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hi, I could not find the picture either :-(
My guess is that they have restructured their web site, and removed weapons-related issues. I could only find a black and white image of a bomb blast. As the source for that image appears to be gone, I'll check out DOD for a replacement. -- Magnus Manske 09:38, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC)
Thank you for welcoming me to the Captions Project. After some reflection, it appears that complete sentences are in many (or even most) cases worthwhile. -- Emsworth 15:21, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC)
I'm sorry, I know nothing about the image except that I originally found it on Wikipedia, and renamed it so as to avoid a clash with an image that I uploaded. It was originally titled: Rainbow.jpg, and was uploaded by some anonymous user on 20 July, 2002. On 19 January I uploaded a similarly-named file, unaware that it overwrote this one, and when I discovered that, I renamed it Rainbow1.jpb. As I am not the one who originally uploaded it, I cannot vouch for its PD-status. There is no information available with it, so I presume it to be PD. I'm sorry I can't give you any more help than that. David Cannon 01:22, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, Noldoaran, thanks for your welcome some months back - the links have been useful. I thought I might ask you for feedback on Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions before I link to it from the usual places. I'd certainly appreciate your comments, and I'd be honored to have you as a participant if you're willing. Thanks for looking! -- ke4roh 05:26, Jul 18, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for your kind words about my caption on the Palm Sunday Tornado Outbreak. I'm not going to formally join the Wikiproject - I've already got too much to do! - but will be keeping an eye out and may dip into the project page from time to time to see what needs to be done. On that note, would you mind having a look at my caption for Rock, Paper, Scissors? I've marked it as done but now I'm not sure it's all that great. -- ALargeElk | Talk 10:26, 26 Jul 2004 (UTC)
Hi, I have restocked the standbys for Captions on Template:Opentask. My selections were random. Please feel free to re-stock to serve your Wikiproject's needs. Thanks. -- PFHLai 02:28, 2004 Aug 6 (UTC)
Thanks! I pulled some off the list since they didn't have pictures or didn't need much help (in which case I just fixed them up as long as I was there). I don't suppose there's much use in keeping a long (>5) list of articles in the queue because the project is sufficiently dynamic and we only knock off one or two a week from opentask, anyway. -- ke4roh 03:32, Aug 6, 2004 (UTC)
Please go here: Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Image:TrangBang.jpg and add a comment if you could. I'm trying to get this out of wikipedia ASAP, and your comments would help. — マイケル ₪ 17:52, Aug 7, 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for the heads-up about Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions. I'll certainly give due consideration to the advice set out on those pages when captioning photos — and then maybe if I get into the swing of the thing I'll formally sign up. Here's an URL that you might find of use (largely oriented towards the newspaper industry, but there's some rescuable info there). Re your absence from Current events: hadn't noticed, I was away for most of last month (but Current events is def. a good place to take a break from if you don't want the stressometer rising too high). Got a heck of a Watchlist to work my way through... Best, –Hajor 03:14, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Hi Ke4roh,
Many items on the Captions line at Template:Opentask have been there for many days already. I don't know which ones are done to your satisfaction, which ones need more help, etc. Shall I "refresh" the line ?
-- PFHLai 15:09, 2004 Aug 20 (UTC)
Hi,
I saw you took emacs off the Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing Captions list because you'd seen a caption the day before. I had just put emacs back on the list because I wrote the caption but it had since gotten moved into the article body. At least I think that's the order of events. Would you please take a look at the caption and re-do it if you think appropriate? I don't see anything wrong with leaving the text in the article body as well, but I'll leave that to you too. Thanks. -- Kop 20:40, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)
I've restored your caption, but I don't like it because it's not direct enough. Basically, I changed it to my caption because it packs in more information, and still leads the reader into the story. Incidently, I couldn't work out who'd commented on my page because you didn't sign your comment - I had to go to the history to work this out. Signing who you are would be appreciated in future. - Ta bu shi da yu 10:57, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Yes I did mean "vincinty". User:Patricknoddy User talk:Patricknoddy 16:33 August 23, MMIV (EDT)
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
OR
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man ( comment| talk)
you need to add a religion section in the Marshall, TX article. Its a joke that their isn't one now. I think it was diliberately excluded by the person that wrote it.
I'd like to offer to nominate you for adminship, if you want it and would accept. I think you've come a long ways since that last nomination of yours, and I think you'd make a good candidate. BLANKFAZE | (что??) 22:10, 21 Oct 2004 (UTC)
The talk pages or other sources indicate you have in the past participated in discussions regarding whether to put a Native American name translation in the introductory sentence of articles on Arizona cities.

Hi, I saw the image on the front page, and read your comments. Internet Explorer can show PNG transparency, but won't do it as other browsers do. So don't worry about fixing it for IE.
I would keep it as it is, i.e., just make sure it looks right on Moz/Konqueror, and either Microsoft will change IE7 to support png transparency in a 'normal' way, or, I guess, the guys who write MediaWiki will write a hack some time in the future. PNG is the best format for those smoothe edges.

Hi, I've listed the NASA image Image:STS-51-L-T 73.jpg, uploaded by you, for deletion as it seems to be orphaned and also a bit too messy to be used in any article. Hope this is OK. Mysid (talk) 06:56, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
It would seem that various images I contributed a couple of years ago have been superceded by other versions of essentially the same picture. If this is the case, I certainly won't object to the deletion, provided that the image description page for the new image contains at least as much information as the one I worked on. -- ke4roh 08:41, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

DUDE. not quite sure who you are and what you have to do with this hooverwarrant image? I own the hard copy and uploaded with my housemate paul (P123). We didn't put the correct licensing onthere, so it was returned and then Paul, my housemate re-loaded it under his wiki id... THEN< WE decided that it should be under my wiki id for the purpose of authentication, since i own the actual 1961 document and my housemate does not have access unless i allow it, so we re-loaded the image under MY wiki name. What the hell does any of this have to do with you? You can't verify it... i own the hard copy.
so, i'll tell you what... if you're approached for authentication, you won't have access to my property. Nor have you ever seen this before you entered this page. In addition, if you want to upload gov't documents, get them from the FBI... not wiki re-loads from images that have already been uploaded by the owner of the authentic 1961 hard copy, me, sarah daugherty. got it? and p123, my houemate will tell you the same.
what was the point of THAT? -- SarahMdaugherty 15:28, January 23, 2007

When my housemate comes home, i'll ask him to fixit. I'm not good at computers. I am very very sorry. It's just that i'm very attached to the "things" i collect, and was estatic that upon researching,that this FBI robert williams THING had significance to others. I'm sorry. We'll fix it. l, sarah m. daugherty thank you for trying to help. i'm new to wikipedia. sigh. not making friends with giant scanned THINGS and getting mad at ppl who try to help. sorry.-- smd "ms. fixit." 01:01, 24 January 2007 (UTC)SarahMdaugherty sorry.

I like the work you did with Image:Teacher_in_Space_Project_McAuliffe_and_Morgan_selected_small.jpg (removing border and color balancing), but it would be better to only have the 640x480 image (minus the border, of course) because MediaWiki can do automatic resizing. There is a 640x480 at commons:Image:Teacher_in_Space_Project_McAuliffe_and_Morgan_selected_small.jpg (it's not actually small) but it's not cropped or color balanced. Would you be willing to upload a full size version with your fixes? Thanks very much. Superm401 - Talk 00:59, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading Image:Lockhart,_Alabama_post_office.jpg. 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, then 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.

Hi, I noticed that you are a member of the Space missions WikiProject. A couple of weeks ago, I proposed that the Space missions and Space travellers projects, which both appear to be inactive be merged into the Human Spaceflight project. Whilst this is being done, the capitalisation of the Human spaceflight project's title would also be corrected (ie. Human Spaceflight → Human spaceflight). The projects are all doing the same/very similar things, and in my opinion, a single, larger, project would be more effective than three smaller, and somewhat inactive projects.. In light of very little response to messages on the project talk pages, I am now sending this message to all members of all three projects, inviting them to discuss the proposal on the Human Spaceflight project's talk page. I would appreciate your opinion on this. Thanks. --GW_Simulations User Page | Talk 21:53, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

File:Biltmore House front.jpg is now available on Wikimedia Commons as Commons:File:Biltmore House front 1902.jpg. This is a repository of free media that can be used on all Wikimedia wikis. The image will be deleted from Wikipedia, but this doesn't mean it can't be used anymore. You can embed an image uploaded to Commons like you would an image uploaded to Wikipedia, in this case: [[File:Biltmore House front 1902.jpg]]. Note that this is an automated message to inform you about the move. This bot did not copy the image itself. -- Erwin85Bot ( talk) 02:30, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Doctor sonic screwdriver.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).

Hello! As an member editor of one or more of the Spaceflight, Human spaceflight, Unmanned spaceflight, Timeline of spaceflight or Space colonisation WikiProjects, I'd like to draw to your attention a proposal I have made with regards to the future of the spaceflight-related portals, which can be found at Portal talk:Spaceflight#Portal merge. I'd very much appreciate any suggestions or feedback you'd be able to offer! Many thanks,

Hello there! As part of an effort to determine how many active editors are present in the spaceflight-related WikiProjects, I have made some changes to the list of members of WikiProject Human spaceflight. If you still consider yourself to be an active editor in this project, I would be grateful if you would please edit the list so that your name is not struck out - thus a clearer idea of the critical mass of editors can be determined. Many thanks in advance!

Hello there! As you may or may not be aware, a recent discussion on the future of the Space-related WikiProjects has concluded, leading to the abolition of WP:SPACE and leading to a major reorganisation of WP:SPACEFLIGHT. It would be much appreciated if you would like to participate in the various ongoing discussions at the reorganisation page and the WikiProject Spaceflight talk page. If you are a member of one of WP:SPACEFLIGHT's child projects but not WP:SPACEFLIGHT itself, it would also be very useful if you could please add your name to the member list here. Many thanks!

Just wanted to let you know, I tweaked SA-500F a bit and have nominated it for DYK with you as sole creator. With any luck, in a week or so it will appear on the front page and shine a bit of well-deserved light on this key piece of space history. I rarely nominate articles by other editors but this one certainly caught my attention. - Dravecky ( talk) 07:31, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
On 19 February 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article SA-500D, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that NASA engineers shook a Saturn V test vehicle (S-IC stage pictured) for over 400 hours to ensure it would withstand the rigors of launch? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

I note your support offered on this user's talk page, and do not disagree with the view expressed. But it is better not to post unblock requests on behalf of another editor. (Although I have left it undisturbed). It is preferable to contact the blocking admin directly, perhaps advising the blocked user simultaneously. Best wishes. -- Anthony Bradbury "talk" 17:08, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
You can try editing BlankMap-World-180E.svg but it's SVG. – HTD ( ITN: Where no updates but is stickied happens.) 18:12, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Hi! Regarding your edit summary here I would like to explain. First of all I rescued that paragraph from three months ago when it had been deleted. Nobody else seemed to have noticed it, but the wording of the second (then first) paragraph screamed to me that prior content was missing, so I went history hunting. Anyway, after restoring the content I did my usual check of that editor's history. I noted that he had made a post to the article's talk page. I realized he had a point; the first sentence says the sauce was made of fish, so why would they name it for tomatoes? Since there is no citation for the assertion, and since there seems to be some etymological debate further along in the article, I decided to simply remove the sentence because it did not follow the context of the previous sentence. In other words, it made "no sense" when taken together with the previous sentence- I never said it was "nonsense" which has a more negative shade of meaning. Hope this clears things up. I'm off to post some {{ cn}} tags in the section because the lack of references is annoying me. Happy editing! — Elipongo ( Talk contribs) 01:54, 25 March 2011 (UTC)
I endorse your nuanced comment here. In the context your diff creates, please review Fukushima Nuclear Accident Log, March 2011. Should the words "nuclear accident log" be lower-case? -- Tenmei ( talk) 19:32, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Do you know this phrase: "You're either part of the problem or part of the solution." My first sentences endorses your talk page diff because it seemed constructive.
When I did try to be "bold", I sought your comments because we were, in a sense, already "on the same page." Also, this "heads up" was prudent and practical -- just in case my edits were perceived as controversial.
I see now that it would have been better to leave the first single sentence diff as it was; and then I should have added a second short sentence diff below it. -- Tenmei ( talk) 20:35, 13 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for uploading File:NCMLS logo.gif. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Eeekster ( talk) 02:32, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
Hi, just to let you know, my strongest possible oppose comment at the mistakenly transcluded RFA in your name was nothing to do with your contributions, it was in reference to the nominator. I realize this whole thing had little to do with you and suggest you simply ignore it and take your time and apply when you feel ready or if someone you respect offers to nominate you, happy holidays and best regards, Off2riorob ( talk) 18:33, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I have nominated you to become an Administrator. You can find the page here: Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Ke4roh — Preceding unsigned comment added by Who Am I Why Am I Here ( talk • contribs) 15:48, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I wouldn't go through with this if I were you, especially not with that user as a nominator. Their only edit to a Wikipedia article is this [2] bit of vandalism. Also, during the time it was live I was reviewing your edits. You seem fine as a contributor of content, but I don't see any experience in administrative areas. No edits at all to WP:AIV, no speedy deletion nominations, no requests for page protection. I think you should just stay the course with what you have been doing. Not every user needs the admin toolset, and the community tends to be tough at RFA on users who don't have experience in admin areas. Beeblebrox ( talk) 18:19, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
I'll get around to writing that up. But remember that you will have to deal with the most obnoxious and rude people imaginable on RfA. If you think that is going to get to you, this won't be worth it. On the other hand, if it will not, by all means. Prodego talk 22:35, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
