Thanks for uploading Image:Sai.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. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. — Rebelguys2 talk 00:06, 24 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

I'm sure Julia prefers to face leftwards, but unfortunately flipping the photo means that the letters on the microphones now read backwards. No doubt someone will flip it back soon. Adam 14:02, 4 April 2006 (UTC)Reply


Radio Frequency Quadrupole

edit

Buh?

What is the context here? --Calton | Talk 02:13, 16 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

The context?? what do you mean. A radio frequecy quadrupole accelerates electrons. What more do you want?

I dunno, just because colorless green ideas sleep furiously doesn't mean that Satan oscillates my metallic sonatas. Clear? --Calton | Talk 04:50, 19 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

LHC

edit

Mjespe1, you may have noticed that User:Oldnoah reverted your edits to "Large Hadron Collider", calling them vandalism, and you unqualified. I have demanded an apology from him. (You didn't do anything wrong, except to step on the toes of his hobby-horse.) Bm gub (talk) 19:17, 30 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re Australian Synchrotron entry

edit

Thanks for the rather inopportune comments left on my talkpage, which I have only just found, given that they were placed in the wrong location at the top of the page rather than the bottom.

As it was a while back I cannot remember all the reasons behind the changes. Replacing the synchrotron radiation link with a link to synchrotron and radiation is arguable - I may have intended to split the link into synchrotron and synchrotron radiation, to be read as synchrotron radiation, and been distracted while doing so and simply linked to radiation by accident. Otherwise the article doesn't link to synchrotron till far too deeply into it, to the detriment of usability for general readers. On the other hand the link to just radiation provides a useful rundown on that term so perhaps I did intend that, however I agree that it is useful to link to the article on synchrotron radiation itself. Either way, this was easily fixable and did not require comments or smart-aleccy edit summaries (I assume you were the anon editor that made the changes). Perhaps try reading WP:AGF.

Also the wording for the Booster Ring/Synchrotron is arguable, and I would suggest you are incorrect in changing it back. Yes the booster can be referred to as a booster synchrotron, however I have a number of printed documents published by the Australian Synchrotron facility which always refer to it as the Booster Ring. For an example you can refer to their website here.

Wikipedia aims to provide articles that provide understandable information for general users, as well as more detailed information where required. As I tried to indicate in that edit summary, using the term 'Booster synchrotron' will be more confusing for a general reader. The term 'Booster ring' is far more understandable and also matches the terms used in the images, and is clearly in line with the terminology used by the Aust Synchrotron facility itself. Why aim to obfuscate the reader in this way, when there is no benefit other than pleasing yourself? Again, this is not what Wikipedia is about. --jjron (talk) 08:38, 23 October 2008 (UTC)Reply


Proposed deletion of Art-Pop/Punk/Metal

edit
 

The article Art-Pop/Punk/Metal has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nothing from article space links here and it seems extremely unlikely that this will ever be useful as a redirect.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Michig (talk) 19:43, 3 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Doug Anthony

edit

Mjspe1, I was asked to review your recent edits. Please be aware that contemporary song lyrics are generally under copyright so you cannot use them in Wikipedia articles without a very good rationale (and you cannot use them on talk pages or outside article space because it violates the Non-Free Content Policy). Secondly, the Biographies of Living Persons policy requires high quality sourcing for material related to living persons. The material you are trying to add to the Doug Anthony article seems inappropriate for a BLP, it contains copyright material and it is entirely unsourced, therefore I don't think those edits are appropriate for Wikipedia and must ask you to stop. Your edits have already been removed by two different editors, please be aware that Wikipedia has edit warring policies and if you want to add that material, you are going to have to address the policy issues I've outlined and reach a consesnsus with the other editors and it seems very unlikely that other editors are going to agree to add material like that to a biography. If you continue adding it back in, you are going to be blocked so it's really not going to achieve anything. Sarah 10:17, 8 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Sarah, all fine points but none go to the actual problem of deleting others discussion from the talk page. Mjspe1 (talk) 05:32, 15 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
