RI Political Races

On May 24, 2006, you wrote, on my user page: So should I just start leaving you messages about what I edit next, so you can wikipedia-ize them?

Sorry to take so long to reply; I think I just completely missed your posting. Or I was so puzzled by it that I told myself I'd go back to it, and didn't. You're refering to the Carl Sheeler article, and specifically to my edit immediately following your edit, which I characterized as Added section titles; minor editing. After thinking this over, I (still?) don't understand your question. John Broughton 20:55, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Okay. If you do happen to do a lot of additions to an article and want someone to copyedit (I enjoy editing; writing slightly less so; and edit wars least of all), just drop me a line. John Broughton 17:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

On a different subject, good catch on that June SurveyUSA poll. I looked a bit too, couldn't find. I doubt that anyone paid for a poll on the primary, given that Whitehouse is expected to win easily, so the odds are that the info was bogus. John Broughton 21:11, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure, let me know when you've got the article on the RI AG to a point where you'd like a second opinion. And as for Sheeler and Whitehouse, I removed some extremely negative (and fraudulent) info from Sheeler's article a month or so ago - I don't remember seeing anything quite so malevolent (because it was worded to seem valid) anywhere else. (That's why there is a cite to his PhD in the article - to forestall repetition of bogus allegations.) John Broughton 13:38, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Nice article. Thanks for the copywriting opportunity. John Broughton 01:22, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know about your posting to Talk:Stephen Laffey. I've replied on that page. John Broughton 17:30, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Carl_Sheeler.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Carl_Sheeler.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 18:48, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
