There's a formatting mistake in your message, and you forgot to sign your name. If you want, I can change it, but I thought you'd rather do it yourself. Cheers!--ViolinGirl♪ 00:30, 8 January 2006 (UTC) Reply Thank You, I'll get on it! —jonphamta 00:40, 8 January 2006 (UTC) Userboxes Ah, thank you! Wikipedia:Userboxes should have all the information you're seeking, but if you wish to create your own, you may want to look into the userbox template. :) Hope this helps. Best wishes, Sango123 (talk) 00:40, 10 January 2006 (UTC) Reply Thank You so much!--jonphamta 00:44, 10 January 2006 (UTC) Perzan A tag has been placed on your article Perzan, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be a biographical account about a person, group of people, or band, but it does not indicate how or why he/she/they is/are notable. If you can indicate why Perzan is really notable, I advise you to edit the article promptly, and also put a note on Talk:Perzan. Any admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 7 under Articles. You might also want to read our general biography criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that admins should wait a while for you to assert his/her/their notability, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and then immediately add such an assertion. It is also a very good idea to add citations from reliable sources to ensure that your article will be verifiable. --Petros471 19:47, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Reply Very sorry about that article, Someone in my computer class got a hold of my laptop while I was doing some research on Wikipedia. It may be deleted--jonphamta 20:18, 16 January 2006 (UTC) Re:you need a better userpage? If I give you some advice, I'd reccommend either narrowing down the number of userboxes you have to about two dozen or putting them on a seperate subpage. I'd suggest replacing them with some information you've written about yourself. Even users that arently support their use, like D-Day, only have a dozen or so on mainpage. Userboxes are like bumperstickers: a handful of them can add a bit of cleverness to someone's life, but a whole shizzleload of them on your main userpage is kind of tacky in the eyes of veteran users.--The ikiroid (talk)(Help Me Improve) 18:48, 17 May 2006 (UTC) Reply Thanks, I'll prioritize my userboxes very soon and plan on updating my userpage--jonphamta 01:31, 20 June 2006 (UTC) Edit After reading the new WP:GUS guidelines, I may just remove all my userboxes Soccer?! Only for Australians and Americans (maybe some others that I don't know of!) :p I think the majority of the world thinks football is the variety with a (nearly) spherical ball! Thegraham 20:04, 20 June 2006 (UTC) Reply Hi, I thought the word soccer would be notable. As you mentioned, the term 'football' is referred to as 'soccer' in North America and Australia. However, it may be confused with American Football --jonphamta 20:11, 20 June 2006 (UTC) Re: Ideas/Suggestions For Fixing My Userpage Hey, Jonphamta. Your userpage already looks great. If you can, though, try adding some more content and sticking to a simpler color scheme, like dark and light blue as you have on your talk page. That's all I can think of for now. :) Cheers, Sango123 02:45, 22 June 2006 (UTC) Reply Thanks! I'll get on that!--jonphamta 19:36, 22 June 2006 (UTC) ITG page, 1st paragraph sentence Hi, I got your message that you left on my talk page. I reverted your previous edit because you said that Konami own[s] ITG (or something to that effect) which we don't necessarily know to be true at this point. However, your most recent edit, which says that Konami has "acquired the intellectual property rights to ITG" is more correct with the news we have now, and, as such, I'd be willing to leave that there. Thanks again for following up on this! Regards, Rahzel 00:34, 29 October 2006 (UTC) Reply Thanks for the reply, I just wanted to get some clarification on that.--jonphamta 03:25, 29 October 2006 (UTC) Image:KyleWard.jpg Hi. When you uploaded Image:KyleWard.jpg, you did not specify complete source and copyright information. Another user subsequently tagged it with {{GFDL-presumed}} and for some time, it has existed on Wikipedia under the assumption that you created the image, and that, just as with all of your text contributions, you agreed to license it under the GFDL. This assumption, however well-meaning, is not legally sufficient and the tag is being phased out. Images using it are being deleted. This image has been tagged for deletion and will be deleted in one week if adequate copyright information is not provided. If you, personally, are the author of this content, meaning that you took the photograph yourself or you created the chart yourself (and it does not use any clipart that you did not create), please retag the image with a free image copyright tag that correctly describes your licensing intentions, usually {{GFDL-self}} or {{PD-self}}. Please also make sure if you have not already done so that you write a good description of what the image depicts, when you took the photo, and other important details. This will allow Wikipedia to continue using the image. If you did not create the image or if it is derived from the copyrighted works of others, please keep in mind that most images on the internet are copyrighted and are not suitable for use on Wikipedia. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others and does not use images unless we know that they have been freely licensed. Any creative work is automatically copyrighted, even if it lacks a copyright notice. Unless the copyright holder has specifically disclaimed their rights to the image and released it under the GFDL or another compatible license, we cannot use it. If you did not create the image, simply do nothing and it will be deleted in a week. Please feel free to contact me on my talk page if I can be of assistance or leave a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions with any questions you may have. Thank you.

However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:43, 6 June 2007 (UTC) Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Thunder bay logo.jpg Thanks for uploading Image:Thunder bay logo.jpg.

Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 02:43, 12 February 2008 (UTC) Orphaned non-free media (Image:Thunder bay logo.jpg) Thanks for uploading Image:Thunder bay logo.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 04:25, 18 February 2008 (UTC) {{db-userreq}} I removed this tag from this page, which was requesting speedy deletion. That tag is for User: pages, not User talk: pages. We don't generally delete talk pages because that would make the history, including comments other people may have made here, inaccessible. However, you're welcome to blank your own talk page if you want. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:03, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
