Orphaned fair use image (Image:Bbc1taichi.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bbc1taichi.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

This is as a result of the AfD nomination above and was required to keep the article. Hope you don't mind Wikiwoohoo 19:56, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Re: A Question

Re your message: Sorry about the delay in getting back to you. I wanted to have enough time to thoroughly look into your question instead of just quickly answering it.

I think it might be a bit early for you to pursue an RfA. Looking at your contributions, I don't think you have done enough RC Patrolling or other admin-related functions to pass an RfA. I would suggest either spending some more time doing RC Patrolling or being involved in the Deletion Process. I think your encyclopedic contributions are fine, but you need more experience in admin-related areas.

I see that you thought about an RfA this time last year. Just on a side note, you said that you have been around since summer 2005. I think you mean 2004 as your earliest edit was April 2004. =) So you certainly have the "be an editor in good standing for N months" requirement that a lot of !voters have for RfAs covered. =) -- Gogo Dodo 23:35, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Long-term block of 165.234.100.1

As much as I would like to, Wikipedia policy advises against indefinite blocks against IP adresses, as they may be re-assigned at a later date. Currently, the block against the IP address should expire some time around mid-August. RyanGerbil10(Упражнение В!) 02:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Your report on 209.2.4.75 to WP:AIV

FYI: [1]

Just wanted to let you know that I removed your report without action because the IP hadn't vandalised since your final warning. I'm not sure if you were using a tool such as VandalProof to make this report, but it's best to wait until an IP has vandalised after the final warning before making the report. Thanks, Deathphoenix ʕ 17:41, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Given the recent volume of reports for anons that haven't edited after a final warning, I figured I should start taking the extra time to inform other users when I remove such a report. :-) Thanks for replying, Deathphoenix ʕ 19:57, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

False vandalism warning

Hey, watch with the quick trigger on handing out vandalism warnings... I admit that the "Die trivia die" edit comment was humorous and could confuse someone not paying attention, but the section tag clearly said that trivia section should be removed, and I agreed, so I did. You should read the Wikipedia:Assume Good Faith and Wikipedia:Vandalism#What vandalism is not sections before you do that sort of nonsense again. 216.165.158.7 06:08, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

User:4.156.201.14 IP should probably also be permanently blocked along with that User:芸術破壊行為

User:Blarga2 was blocked first for edits to John Madden (football) followed by the anonymous IP and the Behaviors of Artistic Vandalism chimed in with similar edits. If the anonymous IP is the root, it might eliminate this user. Thanks for the block. They all have similar vandal edits tonight. Ronbo76 06:33, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Welcome messages

Hi, I noticed you left some welcome message for the users Empire3212, Snowmanstud, Rasitgorgulu, and Philliph41. I wasn't sure if you realize, but you left these notes on their user pages, instead of their talk page. Just a heads up, happy editing. Leebo T/C 20:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

host info

I notice you are adding {{ISP}} to every anon page you edit. May I ask why? That template should only be used on shared or dynamic IPs, which most aren't. What makes you think these IPs fall under those categories? Prodego talk 01:48, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

The template says extra caution should be used in blocking, which implys the the IP is shared. However, this is not true for the majority of IPs, so it may be misleading to less technically versed administrators. Prodego talk 01:59, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Blocking an IP is not a precarious business, it is very common. It is extremely rare that a vandal be reported to it's ISP, so this isn't really worth the work. ISPs do not care about wikipedia vandals, they strongly defend their clients. Therefore, IPs are not reported, since the ISP will just say no anyway. Even the overloaded and relatively abandoned WP:ABUSE limits itself to schools and government agencies. Prodego talk 02:06, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Anyway, I would like if you would stop doing that, since that template adds to Category:Shared IP addresses, and may misrepresent what kind of IP an anon is. Dynamic IPs are a minority. Thanks, Prodego talk 02:14, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Contactor

Hello. I need a contactor to close my abuse reports case, and I saw your listing on the page, and I wondered if you would help. The page can be found here. Thank you! Cool BlueLight my Fire! 18:51, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Re:re:Contactor

Alright, and thank you for notifying me! Good luck with your conference! Cool BlueLight my Fire! 20:40, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

what happened to your page is strange

Why would other users vandalize your page? (Kaisanxara2580 16:50, 15 April 2007 (UTC))

Unspecified source for Image:Hk22.png

Just received this message on my talk page:

Thanks for uploading Image:Hk22.png. 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, then 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, then 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-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, 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 03:03, 11 May 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Renata 03:03, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

Since you were the original uploader, could you please provide the requested information? Thanks, --Fibonacci 04:31, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
