Go ahead and delete, I was just experimenting with learning how to use images. I uploaded this to the sandbox area, so I thought it would be erased anyway.AM01NU06 16:13, 9 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Duplicate images uploaded

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:476px-Harrell WG TEST.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:476px-Harrell WG.jpg. The copy called Image:476px-Harrell WG.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and remember exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 03:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

No problem, this image, like the 'Horacetest' one above, was just an experiment in the sandbox in an effort to learn how to work with images.AM01NU06 16:20, 9 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

If you would like to participate, you can visit the project page, where you can join the project and see a list of open tasks and related articles. Thanks and Gig 'em!

Removal of images

edit

Regarding your removal of images from the articles medical school and law school, please let me know what Wikipedia policy or guideline supports your edits. Your edit summaries are not valid arguments. There is no Wikipedia policy that states that if all of the subject matter cannot be illustrated, then none of it can be. If that were the case, then articles such as animal, food, marching band, etc. would not contain images.

I notice from your user page that you attend or attended Texas A&M. I hope you won't let college on-field rivalries bias your editing here. As you can see from my contributions, I edit Texas A&M-related articles. Several Aggies here, such as BlueAg09, contribute to Texas Tech-related articles as well.

I have reverted your edits to the two articles previously discussed. If you can support your changes, please let me know. Otherwise, it looks like a case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Be aware of WP:3RR (I don't want this to turn into an edit war).

Hopefully we'll be able to work together in the future. Thanks! →Wordbuilder (talk) 05:05, 2 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your reply. Please provide me with the link to the guideline or policy which requires me to explain why I added the images to those articles. I do not argue that they should be the "sole" images included (indeed, both pages include at least one other photo).
As far as my bias goes, I won't say I don't have any. Everyone has bias. But, there is a difference between having bias and allowing bias to negatively affect the way one edits. I challenge you to find a single edit that I've made which weakens a Texas A&M-related article or the article of any Big 12 Conference school. In fact, take a look look at the second barnstar on my user page. I'm not trying to brag. I'm just trying to point out that I don't let any bias toward Tech keep me from improving articles related to universities that are on-field rivals or opponents of TTU.
I notice you're not part of WikiProject Texas A&M. If you're interested, I encourage you to join. →Wordbuilder (talk) 18:00, 2 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
All you do is talk. Your "compromise" revolves around your desire to get rid of the images you don't like. In your last post to my talk page, you mention law school and medical school rankings. Is there a Wikipedia policy regarding this? From the first time I reverted your edits, I asked you to point me to the policy or guideline that prohibits the inclusion of the TTU images. Why have you not done that? →Wordbuilder (talk) 18:26, 3 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

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.
