Unspecified source for Image:Thunderbird.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading Image:Thunderbird.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, 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}} 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 16:50, 24 June 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice?Quadell (talk) (random) 16:50, 24 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Caterpillar, Inc logo.gif)

edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Caterpillar, Inc logo.gif. 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) 05:25, 19 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Re: Ukiah

edit

Hi, fellow wikipedian!

The source you referenced says: "The new location was Northern California, where the social activism of the Temple could flourish...In 1965 about eighty people, half of them African Americans and half Caucasians, moved to Redwood Valley in the California wine country..."

Now, according to wikipedia, "Redwood Valley is an unincorporated town located in Mendocino County, California. It comprises the northern portion of the Ukiah Valley"; and the Ukiah Valley article says Ukiah Valley is "...home to the unincorporated town(s) of Redwood Valley..."

Now, I'm from NYC but lived in Guerneville for a few years and you seem to know more about this than I do, and I don't have access to the Catherine Wessinger book...but I've got to ask: my research shows that the temple was in Ukiah. (I referenced the PBS documentary on youtube but the ref didn't take; it's below for you to check.) Also are some references I found online. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how towns and cities are divided in CA, but I'm pretty sure his temple was in Ukiah. Jones was also a sub teacher at Ukiah High.

A google search of "Jim Jones Ukiah" brings mixed results: was he in Ukiah, or Ukiah Valley? (And if it's Ukiah Valley, shouldn't that important fact be in THAT article as well?)

Can you please help clarify? Thanks much!

Oh, forgot: http://www.ukiahdailyjournal.com/ci_10973985 "Many of those who died that day were residents of Ukiah and Redwood Valley." Thanks again for any insight! 207.237.61.26 (talk) 02:43, 25 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the clarification. Perhaps this info should be added to the Jonestown and those related articles, as well as updating the Redwood Valley and Ukiah articles? What do you think? 207.237.61.26 (talk) 22:24, 27 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

NRHP listings in Mendocino County

edit

Hi and thanks for the content you added to National Register of Historic Places listings in Mendocino County, California. In other lists, the type of descriptive information you added is entered in the "Summary" column of the table. In fact, that's exactly what that column is for. Would you have any objection to moving the text to the table? If there's enough information, it would also be a great idea to create an article for the site itself. (If you'd prefer to respond here rather than my talk page, feel free to do so. I'll put your talk page on my watchlist.) --sanfranman59 (talk) 03:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Actually, that sounds like a fine idea. I was trying to strike a compromise between creating a separate page for each entry (some of which are a bit short on information), and creating a new page with a group of listings. I wasn't aware of the "summary" field in the table, so I think that would work well for most of the entries. Assuming I can find enough content I do intend to create separate pages for some of the listings, but it all comes down to "free" time. :o SaintHammett (talk) 18:31, 4 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
I hear that ... thanks for your contributions! If you do decide to create some stub articles, be sure to use the {{NRHP infobox}} template. There are a bunch of NRHP-related stub articles out here. Here's just one relatively recent example. As you can see, people create stubs without much content at all. I don't necessarily think that's a good idea, but to each his/her own. Happy editing! --sanfranman59 (talk) 03:01, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Years later: I noticed nice additions there and came to thank SaintHammett. Hey, if you're still around, i'm interested in more development here, and i'd like to collaborate some! Thanks also to User:Sanfranman59 for your constructive involvement here too. --Doncram (talk) 20:46, 19 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

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.
