The Artemis Fowl WikiProject

Hi. In the last month I have discovered the Artemis Fowl WikiProject and have slowly but surely been making progress. I have, however, noticed that no one else seems to be doing anything. So, it's as simple as this. Respond to this message, or your name gets removed from the participants list and I assume leadership of the WikiProject, because I will actually get something done. You have exactly 1 week, or 7 days, or 168 hours. They all mean the same thing.

However, please know that this is nothing personal against you. This is a generic message sent to every person on the participants list. Thanks for your co-operation. -007bond aka Matthew G aka codingmasters 10:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

Seen the newest irreverent edits on The Latymer School? Now I finally know how the strike happened. --AdamM 18:22, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Fantastic! I wonder who is the vigilante editor in search of the truth? By the way, nice detective work finding me! --Minglex 18:34, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Not too difficult, thanks to Nick Worth and your artistic additions to his user page. --AdamM 19:42, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Haven't you heard about WP:AUTO? --AdamM10:20, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Anti-humor

Why did you make such a destructive edit on anti-humor? Andre (talk) 19:01, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for your kind words on my user page! I will move them to my talk page, but I appreciate it :) Nach0king 00:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists

Please don't create duplicate articles. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:34, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

1. You mustn't move articles from one title to another by cutting and psting the contents; that loses the edit History. Moves must be done using the "Move" button.
2. The title you're trying to change to is poor English; we normally insist on correct punctuation and capitalisation, even if publishers, record companies, etc., don't. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 18:41, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Although most often used as full stops, exclamation and question marks can stand in for any stop, including commas and semi-colons. The exclamation mark is ungrammatical here in any case ("The Pirates" is clearly not an exclamation), but given that it's there, it must be acting as a comma at most, as "in an adventure with scientists" can't grammatically follow anything else; it's not a complete sentence or even a complete clause. Prepositions shouldn't be capitalised unless they start or end a sentence. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 19:07, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Hello

Holi greetings. --Bhadani 13:53, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator.

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Oldcoatofarms.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. 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 qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then 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 media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Picture of Jimbo

Hi, I took and uploaded the new picture of Jimmy Wales on his user page. I mentioned to him that I didn't like the picture on his page and volunteered to take a new one. He said he had been meaning to get a better picture, and agreed to let me take a new one. I don't know if he has seen it yet or not, but I think it should be his call whether to keep it or revert to the old one. -- Samuel Wantman 19:50, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for the misunderstanding. As I did not see the vandalism, it appeared as though people were reverting to the older photo. When a picture looks like vandalism, vandal patrollers need to check if the picture has been vandalized or the page has been vandalized. In your case, you reverted the wrong one. Once the offending image was removed, it is very difficult to know what your intentions were unless they were explained in the edit comment or a comment on a talk page. Your only comment was that you were reverting. Yes, I should have assumed good faith, but then so should have you. -- Samuel Wantman 20:20, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Booshyetti.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Booshyetti.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.

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.

Non-free use disputed for Image:Homepagebadge4.gif

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Homepagebadge4.gif. 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 04:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Homepagebadge4.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:Homepagebadge4.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 (talk) 23:49, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Abingdoni.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Abingdoni.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it.

License tagging for File:Galapagos tortoise distribution Line diagram.png

Thanks for uploading File:Galapagos tortoise distribution Line diagram.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 18:06, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Lonseome george.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Lonseome george.jpg. 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, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. 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 created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 21:33, 30 August 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Peripitus (Talk) 21:33, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Galapagos Tortoise Subfamily

In response to your question on my talk page.

The reason for sending readers back to the Family for subfamily is twofold. First I think there is generally little to be said about subfamilies other than their existence, usage and references, this can all be achieved on the Family page saving on the time to make a decent page that is really nothing more than a link page. Second I did not have the time to check if a page for the Testudinae existed and did not want to create a dead link. If you look at the Chelidae page and any members of this Family you will see I have done a similar thing here. However I have ensured that the page on Chelidae did discuss the subfamilies in the taxonomy section. I feel the Testudinidae page should do a similar thing allowing a reasonable linking of subfamily pages to the family page where all this information would be available. I will go through the Family page and edit it as needed later today. Hope this answers your question. Faendalimas (talk) 15:34, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks very much, I understand now. Is it the case that the subfamily as it appears on the page 'Testudininae' (sic) is a typo for 'Testudinae'? Minglex (talk) 16:13, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

• Its Testudininae sorry for typo. Faendalimas (talk) 16:18, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject Turtles

Great work over at Galápagos tortoise friend! Six members recently banded together and created the aforementioned project. Would you be interested in joining? Editors like you would be an asset to such a project. :-)--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 08:32, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Message for project members

Hello WP:TURTLE member, the project needs your help. We have recently created a portal (Portal:Turtles), and would like you to choose two or three captivating turtle images for its "Selected picture" section. These images must to be chosen from commons and have a small (three sentences or so) paragraph describing the species in the picture. When you have several that you like, please place the images and a possible caption on the portal's talk page (Portal talk:Turtles). Thank you so much project member!--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 16:08, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Working up a review on G. tortoise

Really like your treatment of the turtles. Will be a long review, since a lot of it is copyedit stuff. Don't get mad when you see all the comments. Want your baby to shine!TCO (talk) 21:14, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

That review goes on for days!!! Go get 'em Minglex, looks like a lot but take it bit by bit, I know you can do it.  :-) NYMFan69-86 (talk) 00:22, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

FA progress

1. Please go ahead and strike out sections of reviewer responses corrected. (If you decide not to change, that's fine. Just helpful to see what was done and not.)

Disregard. I moved my long review onto talk.

2. I'm starting to go through it for prose. Will take a while. Pretty decent shape, but just long. No major changes (I think) just some more polishing for readability.

3. Some permissions image issues came up.

4. Hope you are well and the reviews are not getting to you. TCO (talk) 04:37, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

• Sorry for not being active for a while TCO, I will make time this week to look at the new issues with the article. Minglex (talk) 04:11, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello, what are your intentions with Wikipedia:Featured_article_candidates/Galápagos_tortoise/archive1? Since you have not been active, issues identified by good faith reviewers have been piling up.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:38, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Galapagos Review

Sasata returned to offer some more commentary on the references. I fixed a few things, you may have to roll up your sleeves and dig into them a little (okay a lot) more. There are questions about page numbers, authors, publishers, and all sorts of other goodies. Be swift though, people are getting antsy.--NYMFan69-86 (talk) 02:56, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Keep after it, man!

I think everyone likes you, and I especially liked that you did a topic that was so important. And also included BOTH science and fun stuff. And did not make it unreadable biology faux science paper. So everyone "wants you to win".

Gotta dig down and bring it up to standards on refs. Hopefully, the whole thing was a learning process on ref and image quality...and helps all your future articles.

Get it done! We want you to succeed!!!

File source problem with File:Hammerlollipop.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Hammerlollipop.jpg. 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Double dagger

In the unlikely event that you have logged into Wikipedia after two years of inactivity, could you please answer the following question for me? In File:Galapagos tortoise distribution Line diagram.png in which you used to the double dagger (‡) to indicate extinction of a dubious subspecies, is such a usage of the double dagger your invention, or is it a pre-existing convention?

ArbCom elections are now open!

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.

Possibly unfree File:DarwinihatchlingsCDRS.jpg

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:DarwinihatchlingsCDRS.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the file's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the file description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you object to the listing for any reason. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 20:53, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Oldcoatofarms.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Oldcoatofarms.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 12:00, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
