WP:LOTDList of Washington Redskins head coaches was selected as a WP:LOTD for one day in June and will be the LOTD during the month. Let me know before May 23rd if you have any date preferences.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 03:09, 21 May 2008 (UTC) FLCsHello Milk's Favorite Cookie, you have eight(!) nominations at WP:FLC now, could you stop nominating FLCs until at least five of your current nominations are closed? Continue your work on other lists, but just put them on hold for a while. Thanks!--Crzycheetah 00:42, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Commons transfersHi. Thanks for taking the time to transfer useful free licensed images to Commons. Please be aware that the transfer bots are quite stupid (for example if the image is not an orignal to en:Wikipedia but was scanned or uploaded from elsewhere, the source information on the bot display will pretty much ALWAYS be WRONG; categories added can be nonsensical). As part of the transfer process, I suggest you take time to check and correct any misinformation and make sure categories are approprate. Thanks! Cheers, -- Infrogmation (talk) 01:55, 22 May 2008 (UTC) Image copyright problem with Image:Juliancoltonlogo.png![]() Thank you for uploading Image:Juliancoltonlogo.png. 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. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?

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, 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, 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:Non-free content, 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 10:20, 24 May 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 10:20, 24 May 2008 (UTC) HuggleAhh! I can't stop! That thing is so addicting!

I'll probably do some "research" (look at other scripts) to get some ideas. jj137 (talk) 02:05, 1 June 2008 (UTC) ResponseYou were not giving any indication in the FLC that you were actively addressing concerns, so I assumed you were not.

POTD notification![]() Hi MFC, Just to let you know that the Featured Picture Image:Victoria Crater, Cape Verde-Mars.jpg is due to make an appearance as Picture of the Day on June 9, 2008. If you get a chance, you can check and improve the caption at Template:POTD/2008-06-09. howcheng {chat} 22:54, 2 June 2008 (UTC) Hello yet again. I regretfully inform you that the bot we were using to update the user status at Wikipedia:Highly Active Users, SoxBot V, was blocked for its constant updating. With this bot out of operation, a patch is in the works. Until that patch is reviewed and accepted by the developers, some options have been presented to use as workarounds: 1) Qui monobook (not available in Internet Explorer); 2) User:Hersfold/StatusTemplate; 3) Manually updating User:StatusBot/Status/USERNAME; or 4) Not worry about it and wait for the patch to go through, which hopefully won't take long. If you have another method, you can use that, too. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Hi MFC, the FLC for List of Buffalo Sabres head coaches is getting a little long in the tooth now and you asked a while ago not to close it while you were working on it. Can you let me (or Scorpion0422) know where you are with it so either of us can make a final (if appropriate) assessment for promotion or otherwise? Hope you're well, cheers for now.

A Featured List contestGrettings. FL directors Scorpion0422 and The Rambling Man have decided to run a contest for FL contributors. We are trying to get some interest in the process and get some FLs for the under-represented topics. If you would like to learn more about this contest, you can find such information here. If you are uninterested in it, then you could still help out by reviewing FLCs submitted by the entrants. Thanks for the time, Scorpion0422 18:26, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBotSuggestBot 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 (talk) 12:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC) Re: ReviewsYep, I'm kinda busy, but I think I can get to it by tonight...

Re:ContestNo, per precedent, those would fall under the various sports for those awards. It does seem somewhat unfair considering that Sephiroth is doing an Academy Awards list (BTW, Oscar list wouldn't be a bad idea, there are lots of sources for them). However, the previous Oscar-related FLs are already under the awards category and I asked several on IRC about it and they seem to think they fit more under awards than media. Sorry, Scorpion0422 00:07, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
I just discovered this list: List of films receiving six or more Academy Awards. Perhaps you should move it to five or more and work on it. That way, you have a template to work on. -- Scorpion0422 01:35, 12 June 2008 (UTC) List of Dallas Chaparrals/San Antonio Spurs head coacheshey cookie I would like to know why'd you move the List of Dallas Chaparrals/San Antonio Spurs head coaches to List of San Antonio Spurs head coaches?

To - User Talk:Milk's Favorite Cookie From - User Talk:Joseph A. Spadaro Hello. I noticed that you recently changed the name of the above article to "List of films receiving five or more Academy Awards". I was very confused by that move. May I ask what was behind that, because maybe I missed something? You had referred to a discussion about this rename ... but when I went to the article's discussion page, I did not see any discussion there about this. At your convenience, please reply at my Talk Page (User talk:Joseph A. Spadaro). Thanks a lot. (Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 02:08, 20 June 2008 (UTC))
Re: Anthony GiordanoPer request for explanation: the copy and paste on Anthony Giordano from [2] starts in the mid-8th paragraph with "Giordano was groomed..." It's only a 3-sentence lift (with minor modification) but it's half the stub left after the previous copyvio removal. If tagging it was an overreaction, I apologize. • Gene93k (talk) 23:16, 20 June 2008 (UTC) AWC NewsletterMFC, On second thought, hold off.
