Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia did not provide specific references or sources. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. Editors may choose to remove material you have contributed if it is not verifiable. Please provide specific references in your contributions to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content. You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. -- ChrisO 01:07, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Scientology article

Hi Timon,

No, I'm not responsible for writing the Scientology article - as you will see from the editing history it has had dozens if not hundreds of editors. I've not edited it in any substantive way since last July.

I agree 100% that there are a lot of problems with the article and also with many of the other Scientology-related articles on Wikipedia, which are often badly written, poorly referenced and unfairly biased against the Church. In the (relatively few) Scientology-related articles that I've edited, I've done my best to fix these problems, though it has occasionally led to clashes with anti-Scientologists or Scientologists who don't understand what Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy requires. We can't use articles as vehicles for praising or condemning Scientology - we have to present both the pro- and anti- viewpoints fairly and neutrally.

You offered to list specific areas of discontent - if you could do this, I'd definitely like to see what can be done about them. -- ChrisO 12:53, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Barhopper.jpg

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Barhopper.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.

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 01:22, 17 August 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Q ^{T C} 01:22, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
