Image upload broken?

In the last couple of days, I've tried repeatedly to upload (to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Upload) a couple of plain-vanilla JPEG images. No joy on either -- the current one returns a message that '.' is not an accepted image format. Yes, it says '.' Help?

In case anyone wants to try to duplicate this, try uploading this image (fair use of a book cover): http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/images/n28/n143506.jpg Title it "Telzey & Crest Cats", in case it works... <g> Pete Tillman 20:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC) reply

  • Macs tend to leave off file extensions which cause the system to think it doesn't have one. Another potential problem could be not the name of the file you upload, but the destination name. Try uploading without the ampersand in the name. - Mgm| (talk) 13:56, 14 December 2006 (UTC) reply

Arizona Wilderness Areas

What a nice clean up of List of Arizona Wilderness Areas. (It wasn't easy putting some of the Arizona articles together). plus i've done some stuff in the Lower Colorado River Valley. Too bad I don't have weeks and months to actually Explore, and Climb, and Bird Watch, And Golf Course up and down the Lower Colorado River Valley ! (and all the money required). I just looked at the Pinaleno Mountains page. Wow, what a job done on that page.

I added one person since, and it was related to Agassiz, Lake Agassiz, but the geologist Dana, came up whose book I always kept close by: the 17, 18, or 19 edition. You know of what I speak, and why I found his name in the 1800's. Any geology, or other types that are historical enuff, even in the past 30 years to go into this category?

Move request

Hi. I noticed you posted a move request at WP:RM, regarding Village of Oak Creek, Arizona. Unfortunately, due to a bad link on the requests page, your request was actually posted to an invisible sub-page. I've gone ahead and completed the move, since it seems to be an uncontroversial one, simply making the article consistent with other US cities.

I'm letting you know, because I deleted the subpage on which your request was posted, so that edit is now gone from your contribution history, which might seem strange if you were to look for it there. Cheers. - GTBacchus( talk) 03:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC) reply

Hi, I'm sorry that I didn't reply to you sooner -- it's just one of those things that gets overlooked for a moment, then gets completely forgotten about! I'm sorry you moved out of Tucson before I knew you were here. Hope you're doing well elsewhere. Right now it's been COLD for the last month or so!

Glad to be of service :-) Good to meet another wiki geologist, and one who rubbed shoulders with one of the classics. I never met Williams, but sure became well aquainted with his Petrography text back about 1970 - still have my old copy. Cheers, Vsmith 03:50, 11 January 2007 (UTC) reply

I don't have anything on his personal life, let alone his genealogy.

More places in Arizona

Thanks for the note! I only ended up putting one of those on the county template, however, for the following reasons:

  • Cherry I put on the template.
  • Clemenceau I did not put on the template because it's part of an incorporated municipality. If all parts of incorporated municipalities were put on, some county templates would be huge, because some cities (not necessarily in Arizona) have many articles for their many neighborhoods.
  • The other three towns I did not put on the template because they're redirects to other pages. If you create separate pages for them, I'll put the template on.

By the way, as far as Cherry: place articles generally do not have ", Arizona" in the "bold intro"; if you look at town articles nationwide you'll generally see "TOWNNAME is a [whatever type of municipality] in COUNTYNAME County, STATENAME, United States."
Thanks again! Nyttend 14:37, 10 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Hey, went down to the Bradshaw Mountains today, got some photos. I through a few in that article, as well as Lynx Lake, and Goldwater lake (which could use a lot more info, I had to take out a bunch that belonged in a tourist guide). The only thing I could find in Walker worth photographing was the charcoal kiln, which I also put in the BM article. From the peak of Mount Union, I got one of Granite Mountain, I'll see if I can crop it to make it worth using. I was actually thinking of trying to do the Granite Mountain article this week, we'll see how it goes. We didn't get to the other side of 69 though, so nothing for Humboldt and all that.

Cananea

In your admirable quest to detect and destroy un-sourced info you also deleted some purely factual material (regarding a historic event in this town) from the section entitled "Recent Events" -- also, you called the material that you deleted POV, when in reality it was material without proper sources -- there's a difference, although you were probably right to delete some of what you deleted.

There is a quality scale here: [2], but it doesn't really provide instructions and is pretty vague, when I created the project I proposed it and someone took it live when there was only a couple members so I didn't really have anyone else around to get input from on this. It seems there are quite a few members now, I would like to see the project revived. Perhaps a newsletter on a monthly basis would attract people to some discussion. We still really really need to figure out a way to define ghost town for categorization, this has been a semi-contentious issue in the past, I would like to see a consensus evolve.

State geological article requests

Hi. I honestly expected wikipedia to have full detailed articles on Geology by state e.g Geology of California or Geology of Utah. I'm not even from the States but I had fully expected a detailed article on each state.

5RR - and gaming the system.

(copied to your user talk - so that i'm sure you'll notice it).

Would you please read/reread Help:Reverting, particularly section 1.2. For example:

  • Do not simply revert changes that are made as part of a dispute. Be respectful to other editors, their contributions and their points of view.
  • Do not revert good faith edits. In other words, try to consider the editor "on the other end." If what one is attempting is a positive contribution to Wikipedia, a revert of those contributions is inappropriate unless, and only unless, you as an editor possess firm, substantive, and objective proof to the contrary. Mere disagreement is not such proof. See also Wikipedia:Assume good faith.

Your wholesale reversions of my edits, such as at James Hansen, clearly violate Wikipedia policy. Pete Tillman ( talk) 01:26, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Kim, can you read plain English? "Do not revert good faith edits... Mere disagreement is not such proof."
You're getting a bad reputation for this sort of thing. Please desist, and observe Wikipedia policy. Pete Tillman ( talk) 17:58, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply
Pete - please take a long hard look at WP:BLP - your quote without a context is not adhering to a neutral point of view. It is a cherry picked quote, which when examining both the discussion articles about it, and the original source, is incomplete and doesn't represent Hansen's views. (i'm referring to Carbon Capture and Storage).
And i can assure you that i try my very hardest to stay within WP rules and guidelines - but since i mostly edit on a controversial subject, a perusal of my talk page will give a scewed view. I'm not assuming any bad faith - and i request that you do not either. -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:23, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on James Hansen. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Pete Tillman ( talk) 18:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Had you pointed that out - i would have self-reverted, and i'm deeply sorry. But may I suggest that you yourself take a look at WP:3RR - since you violated it before i did? -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
In effect you are gaming the system. In fact you are now standing at 5RR . [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] - i suggest that you rerevert back to the last version before 3RR violations -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:55, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
I also strongly suggest that you read WP:3RR thoroughly, since BLP violations is excerpt from the rule:
There are other instances where multiple reverts may not constitute a breach of this policy:
  • reverts performed by a user within his or her own user page, user subpages, provided that such reverts do not restore copyright violations, libelous material, WP:BLP violations, or other kinds of inappropriate content enumerated in this policy or elsewhere;
-- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 19:00, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
Kim, with all due respect, you are making it very hard for me to assume good faith for your actions. You have now reverted my contribution NINE times. Not once have you made an edit. Would you agree that this is excessive? Pete Tillman ( talk) 19:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
In the face of WP:BLP violations - No.
The rule for BLP NPOV is very simple - we must err on the side of caution. Which is what i've done. The good faith part goes both ways, and frankly i have at no time during this dispute considered your part as being with bad faith. I'm simply not that interested in that particular quote - so if you want it on the article, then you must ensure that it is written in a way so that it is not inflammatory and provides even an implicit POV. Try to address this instead of assuming bad faith. -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 19:42, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Kim, the "BLP violations" exist (sfaict) solely in your own fevered imagination. So far, neutral third parties agree. Why don't you try doing something constructive? Pete Tillman ( talk) 22:23, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

I'm sorry? Am i going to have to ignore this, and just assume that "fevered imagination" is somehow civil and assuming good faith? Or is it what i think it is... a personal attack? -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 00:16, 16 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Hello there. I removed the “unbalanced” tag you recently placed in Freeport-McMoRan as you have provided no rational on the talk page.

Move request

Hi. I noticed you posted a move request at WP:RM, regarding Village of Oak Creek, Arizona. Unfortunately, due to a bad link on the requests page, your request was actually posted to an invisible sub-page. I've gone ahead and completed the move, since it seems to be an uncontroversial one, simply making the article consistent with other US cities.

I'm letting you know, because I deleted the subpage on which your request was posted, so that edit is now gone from your contribution history, which might seem strange if you were to look for it there. Cheers. - GTBacchus( talk) 03:45, 4 January 2007 (UTC) reply

Spam links

I deleted those links because their captions made me see them as unneeded, since Wikipedia isn't a link directory. I don't normally remove the newspaper link; I don't know why I did this time. I've restored the links, with the other two recaptioned. I'm not being overzealous, but I'm likely under-aware of the requirements for external links :-) Nyttend 01:52, 26 May 2007 (UTC) reply

We keep crossing paths as we edit, so I thought I'd share this with you.

Hi Tillman. You are listed as a participant in WikiProject Geology. Maybe you to please consider helping to improve the oil shale article. This article has developed quite well, but some more expert assistance is needed. Thank you in advance. Beagel 17:17, 31 May 2007 (UTC) reply

More places in Arizona

Thanks for the note! I only ended up putting one of those on the county template, however, for the following reasons:

  • Cherry I put on the template.
  • Clemenceau I did not put on the template because it's part of an incorporated municipality. If all parts of incorporated municipalities were put on, some county templates would be huge, because some cities (not necessarily in Arizona) have many articles for their many neighborhoods.
  • The other three towns I did not put on the template because they're redirects to other pages. If you create separate pages for them, I'll put the template on.

By the way, as far as Cherry: place articles generally do not have ", Arizona" in the "bold intro"; if you look at town articles nationwide you'll generally see "TOWNNAME is a [whatever type of municipality] in COUNTYNAME County, STATENAME, United States."
Thanks again! Nyttend 14:37, 10 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Hey, no problem. I'll be in Prescott for the next couple weeks, so will hopefully have the chance to add some more photos to Arizona articles. Let me know if there's any that can be done easily from here that aren't listed in the Category of needed photos for Arizona. Cheers! Murderbike 17:16, 13 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Cool! If you'll check Mingus Mountain, you'll see I stuck one in there yesterday as well. As to those other places, I'll def see what I can do. Thanks for the tips! Murderbike 17:42, 13 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Hey, went down to the Bradshaw Mountains today, got some photos. I through a few in that article, as well as Lynx Lake, and Goldwater lake (which could use a lot more info, I had to take out a bunch that belonged in a tourist guide). The only thing I could find in Walker worth photographing was the charcoal kiln, which I also put in the BM article. From the peak of Mount Union, I got one of Granite Mountain, I'll see if I can crop it to make it worth using. I was actually thinking of trying to do the Granite Mountain article this week, we'll see how it goes. We didn't get to the other side of 69 though, so nothing for Humboldt and all that. Maybe next time. Cheers! Murderbike 05:24, 22 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Cananea

In your admirable quest to detect and destroy un-sourced info you also deleted some purely factual material (regarding a historic event in this town) from the section entitled "Recent Events" -- also, you called the material that you deleted POV, when in reality it was material without proper sources -- there's a difference, although you were probably right to delete some of what you deleted. As for the other part, I've restored it. In the future please try and be more careful. Pablosecca 15:22, 17 June 2007 (UTC) reply

Ghost towns

Hmm, sorry for the delay in response. I thought I posted those instructions, I will try to figure out what's up, in the meantime, if you have something that needs assessed I can take a look if you want. IvoShandor 00:17, 19 August 2007 (UTC) reply

There is a quality scale here: [2], but it doesn't really provide instructions and is pretty vague, when I created the project I proposed it and someone took it live when there was only a couple members so I didn't really have anyone else around to get input from on this. It seems there are quite a few members now, I would like to see the project revived. Perhaps a newsletter on a monthly basis would attract people to some discussion. We still really really need to figure out a way to define ghost town for categorization, this has been a semi-contentious issue in the past, I would like to see a consensus evolve. Maybe I will work on a newsletter. IvoShandor 00:22, 19 August 2007 (UTC) reply

State geological article requests

Hi. I honestly expected wikipedia to have full detailed articles on Geology by state e.g Geology of California or Geology of Utah. I'm not even from the States but I had fully expected a detailed article on each state. Some of the American geological articles are very poor or non existent see Basic geologic features of each state. PLease could your project aim to start these articles and develop them. All the best and thanks ♦ Sir Blofeld ♦ "Talk"? 13:04, 29 September 2007 (UTC) reply

5RR - and gaming the system.

(copied to your user talk - so that i'm sure you'll notice it).

Would you please read/reread Help:Reverting, particularly section 1.2. For example:

  • Do not simply revert changes that are made as part of a dispute. Be respectful to other editors, their contributions and their points of view.
  • Do not revert good faith edits. In other words, try to consider the editor "on the other end." If what one is attempting is a positive contribution to Wikipedia, a revert of those contributions is inappropriate unless, and only unless, you as an editor possess firm, substantive, and objective proof to the contrary. Mere disagreement is not such proof. See also Wikipedia:Assume good faith.

Your wholesale reversions of my edits, such as at James Hansen, clearly violate Wikipedia policy. Pete Tillman ( talk) 01:26, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Kim, can you read plain English? "Do not revert good faith edits... Mere disagreement is not such proof."
You're getting a bad reputation for this sort of thing. Please desist, and observe Wikipedia policy. Pete Tillman ( talk) 17:58, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply
Pete - please take a long hard look at WP:BLP - your quote without a context is not adhering to a neutral point of view. It is a cherry picked quote, which when examining both the discussion articles about it, and the original source, is incomplete and doesn't represent Hansen's views. (i'm referring to Carbon Capture and Storage).
And i can assure you that i try my very hardest to stay within WP rules and guidelines - but since i mostly edit on a controversial subject, a perusal of my talk page will give a scewed view. I'm not assuming any bad faith - and i request that you do not either. -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:23, 9 January 2008 (UTC) reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on James Hansen. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Pete Tillman ( talk) 18:47, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Had you pointed that out - i would have self-reverted, and i'm deeply sorry. But may I suggest that you yourself take a look at WP:3RR - since you violated it before i did? -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
In effect you are gaming the system. In fact you are now standing at 5RR . [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] - i suggest that you rerevert back to the last version before 3RR violations -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 18:55, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
I also strongly suggest that you read WP:3RR thoroughly, since BLP violations is excerpt from the rule:
There are other instances where multiple reverts may not constitute a breach of this policy:
  • reverts performed by a user within his or her own user page, user subpages, provided that such reverts do not restore copyright violations, libelous material, WP:BLP violations, or other kinds of inappropriate content enumerated in this policy or elsewhere;
-- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 19:00, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
Kim, with all due respect, you are making it very hard for me to assume good faith for your actions. You have now reverted my contribution NINE times. Not once have you made an edit. Would you agree that this is excessive? Pete Tillman ( talk) 19:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply
In the face of WP:BLP violations - No.
The rule for BLP NPOV is very simple - we must err on the side of caution. Which is what i've done. The good faith part goes both ways, and frankly i have at no time during this dispute considered your part as being with bad faith. I'm simply not that interested in that particular quote - so if you want it on the article, then you must ensure that it is written in a way so that it is not inflammatory and provides even an implicit POV. Try to address this instead of assuming bad faith. -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 19:42, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Kim, the "BLP violations" exist (sfaict) solely in your own fevered imagination. So far, neutral third parties agree. Why don't you try doing something constructive? Pete Tillman ( talk) 22:23, 15 January 2008 (UTC) reply

I'm sorry? Am i going to have to ignore this, and just assume that "fevered imagination" is somehow civil and assuming good faith? Or is it what i think it is... a personal attack? -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 00:16, 16 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Will you please stop this [8]. (and btw. i am male). -- Kim D. Petersen ( talk) 22:10, 19 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Sorry for the wrong-gender assumption :-( -- I even went to HS with a male Kim!. Oh, well. Cheers -- Pete Tillman ( talk) 23:21, 19 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Hello there. I removed the “unbalanced” tag you recently placed in Freeport-McMoRan as you have provided no rational on the talk page. Such tags should not be there if the issue is not discussed on talk – in fact, using talk without tags is a much more satisfactory and possibly less disruptive approach.

Happy to discuss anytime. Kind regards and happy editing -- Merbabu ( talk) 00:38, 29 January 2008 (UTC) reply

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:AZGS logo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:AZGS logo.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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.
