Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 12:05, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! Glad I could bring a little laughter into the world, and I hope your pants are okay. VoiceOfReason 20:16, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
I noticed you failed to meet the entry requirements a while ago for Esperanza, but it looks to me as if you could now join!
If you are still interested, we'd be glad to welcome you- just re-read the requirements here and follow the instructions.
I look forward to seeing you around!

Welcome Colonial One[edit] |
| I guess its a tiny bit late but a belated welcome to wikipedia, you seem to be getting on quite well with policies and editing so theres no real advice I can give you. Instead just keep up the good work. If you need any help don't hesitate to get in touch on my talk page and I'll be glad to help!! By the way I'm impressed with your good use of edit summaries. Even alot of long term users don't bother with them - which is a shame |

You can sign your name on talk pages by using " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp.. Signing your name is important on talk pages because it helps people get in touch with you. Also remember to indent each of your comments using : so that other users can follow the flow of discussions As well as editing wikipedia you could also think about taking part in many other essential activities that make wikipedia a friendly place. For example you could welcome new users to wikipedia (for this you are could use my welcome templates here) or you could try mediating discussions between other users. There are loads of other options at the Wikipedia:Community Portal. |

Esperanza
[edit]Hi! I noticed that you were on the list of Wikipedians whom wanted to join Esperanza but did not meet the requirements. You do now, so if you wish to join, just add your name to the members list. If not, thanks anyway! Some P. Erson 20:51, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
Image copyright problem with Image:Wallywarhawk.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploading Image:Wallywarhawk.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. ccwaters 20:00, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (Image:Michellejohnson01.jpg)
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Michellejohnson01.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:36, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Always outnumbered.jpg
[edit]
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Always outnumbered.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. M06ff1 (talk) 00:57, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Stuckeyslogo.gif
[edit]Thanks for uploading Image:Stuckeyslogo.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.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
