I noticed that you desired to create a portal, and that you may have believed that you were required to go through an approval process in order to be allowed to create it. Just to let you know, there is no required approval process for portals. The Wikipedia:Portal/Proposals page was posing as (or at least was being mistaken as) policy even though it was not. That page has been nominated for deletion, and the deletion discussion can be found at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Portal/Proposals. If your guess is that there will be sufficient readers who will find your portal useful, then you should feel free to create it. --Transhumanist

WikiProject South Park edit

I have thought of creating a WikiProject for South Park since it is now near its' 10th anniversary and has more articles than ever. I feel we could all do the following things through this project:

  • Cleanup any short/poorly written/unformatted articles
  • Merge/lengthen the many character articles
  • Improve the South Park main page

I have seen your South Park fan template and wondered if you were interested in joining. If so reply to my talk page and I'll get back to you as quick as I can. Thanks, Mr. Garrison

Image copyright problem with Image:Labradorlogo.jpg edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Labradorlogo.jpg. 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.
