Hi Delta Tango. Many thanks for your words of encouragement. Cheers Paul from Brum (talk) 17:10, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Terrence Malick

[edit]

The Talk Page for this article has an extended discussion of this. --Kitrus 06:07, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The above is response to something I wrote on his talk page. My reply is found @ User talk:Kitrus

Since the edit war has, with few exceptions, stopped for the past several weeks, I wouldn't get too worked up about it. When the reference to Malick's ethnic identity was taken out, both parties (me versus the dozen or so Assyrian editors) essentailly ceased the edit war.
If the issue still concerns you, I would point out that my primary source, Yahoo News trumped theirs.(link here)
The opposing editors failed to provide an equally respectable source. They relied on obscure online references. This can all be read on the Talk Page.
Out of curiosity, why did you approach me first and not the other editors?

Just a quick Thank You "Delta Tango". Great job it looks a lot better now. I was trying to make a "InfoBox" (Over at my User:Vufors) with the standard layout, but had trouble with the new fields headers that I needed. But you produced exactly what I wanted, so thanks! It looks professional and follows the Wiki standards. Best Regards Vufors 01:26, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Thank-you!

[edit]

I just found the link you left on the Esperanza MfD to Who Writes Wikipedia?. Thank you so much for that. I'm now going to, ahem, distribute it a bit more! Carcharoth 23:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you do that, I think that's a good thing to do. :) We Wikipedians can easily become arrogant and disrespect new users and IP users if we don't get the right perspective. Delta TangoTalk 08:20, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ceyockey RfA

[edit]

A generic but nonetheless warm "thank you" for your words of support in my RfA. I'm glad that you affirmed Radiant's nomination and I'll be measured in my use of the cleaning closet's contents. User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:38, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you have any opinions

[edit]

About the new section versions on evolution, I would be glad to hear them.--Filll 22:06, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've read through the discussion at Slrubenstein's fact and theory section and I'll look at the comparison at Talk:FactandTheoryComparison. I appreciate your effort to try to keep the theory and fact section clear. And simple is good as long as it covers what it's intended to explain. I'll post comments on the appropriate talk pages as soon as I've read through the comparisons. Delta TangoTalk 22:50, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

There is an update to Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Thejas_Online - originally, you suggested to marge the article with Thejas but that article is now a candidate for speedy deletion. As a result, your requested action may no longer be valid - please update the discussion with your new decision concerning the article. --Sigma 7 22:08, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Theories

[edit]

Thank you for providing me with the link to Geothermal Power, but that is not the same theory. My theory is to directly use the heat from the earth to create an electric current, it does not involve water, steam, turbines or any other physical process.

Thank you,

Request for comment on Category Redirect template

[edit]

Because you are a member of WikiProject Categories, your input is invited on some proposed changes to the design of the {{Category redirect}} template. Please feel free to view the proposals and comment on the template talk page. --Russ (talk) 21:49, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:JWCCrest.gif. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

WikiProject Sociology Newsletter: II (April 2010)

[edit]
Sociology ProjectNews • April 2010
Spreading the meme since August 2006

The Sociology WikiProject is conducting a roll call (or min-census, if you prefer). More then five years down the road, we have over 50 members, but we don't know how many of them are still active in the sociology area. If you are or want to become once again an active contributor to the sociology content on Wikipedia, please move your name from the inactive to the active list on our roll call (or add yourself to the list if you haven't joined yet!).

In other news, we have reactivated the newsletter :) At least, for this announcement. We also have a new, automated to do listing, an active tag and assess project (which has identified about 1,800 sociology articles on Wikipedia, and assessed about 1,3000 of them), and three new userboxes for your self-identification pleasure :) On a final note, I highly recommend watchlisting the Wikipedia:WikiProject Sociology page, so you can be aware of the ongoing discussions.

You have received this newsletter because you are listed as a recipient of WikiProject Sociology Newsletter (Opt-out). • signed

WikiProject Sociology membership

[edit]

You are listed in the Category:Wikipedians interested in sociology, probably due to the use of "This user is interested in sociology" userbox, but you have not added yourself to our official member list for WikiProject Sociology. This prevent you from, among other things, receiving our sociology newsletter, as that member list acts as our newsletter mailing list (you can find the latest issue of our sociology newsletter here). If you'd like to receive the newsletter and help us figure out how many members we really have, please consider joining our WikiProject and adding yourself to our official member list. Thank you, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 12:59, 26 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:MilitaryExerciseKids.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:MilitaryExerciseKids.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Thanks for uploading File:JWCCrest.gif. 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 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).
