First, let me congratulate and thank you for your excellent work on the Friedrich Nietzsche and related articles. A few points you might want to keep in mind:

  1. Correctly-used images improve articles, and should be included where relevant and possible. For example, you replaced images used in Genealogy of Morality and Beyond Good and Evil with superior images instead of moving the inferior images to different sections. You also deleted wholesale images of book covers from the Friedrich Nietzsche article when they vastly improved the quality of the section. Images should only be removed if their copyright status is controversial, when they are irrelevant to the section or when there are too many images in a given section.
  2. Another point to consider is when editing a page, a small "Summary" field appears under the main edit-box and looks like this:
 

It's recommended to always fill in the summary field, as it helps everyone to understand what you have changed, such as when perusing the history of the page. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may question your motives for the edit. I reverted your removal of several images because you did not explain why you removed them - had you explained why, I might have accepted your rationale. Providing edit summaries means other editors are much less likely to undo your work.

  1. I notice you recently restructured the Beyond Good and Evil article by chapter headings. It appears you intend to give a detailed summary of each. This will not be tolerated - it is contrary to the quality standards of book articles. Please consider reading the guidelines for non-fiction books or look at one of the featured articles such as this one or this for an idea of what makes a brilliant non-fiction book article. Blow-by-blow accounts of chapters are unhelpful.

I urge you to take these points under consideration and wish you well in your future edits. Regards, Skomorokh incite 15:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:BeyondGoodandEvil.jpg

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:BeyondGoodandEvil.jpg. 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 03:33, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Book cover image

edit

This is to let you know that I've orphaned the fair use image Image:BeyondGoodandEvil.jpg, and replaced it with Image:Beyond Good And Evil first edition.jpg, an image in the public domain. For more information, see the book cover replacement project. Thanks. Chick Bowen 21:30, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:0140441182.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:0140441182.01.LZZZZZZZ.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. BJBot (talk) 04:17, 8 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

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.
