Excel Saga 19

I own the volume too. The last couple have only been showing ISBN 13 on the information page, but each still has an ISBN 10. The ISBN 10 number for volume 19 is 4785929146. I thought that would be more appropriate since the rest of the page is in ISBN 10. Grapeofdeath 12:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Yoghurt

I want to start out by saying I'm really sorry that this happened - I did my best to stop it, but sadly I have been overruled by 4 people who are obsessed with name changing (regardless of whether or not I agree with them), and there is a new debate on the Yoghurt talk page about the move - I just felt it would be best if most people who had voted in the past knew about this.danielfolsom 00:02, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Gits-ssc.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Gits-ssc.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 15:13, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Rainier.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rainier.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any non-free media lacking such an explanation 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. ACBestMy ContributionsAutograph Book 20:03, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Translation of 攻殻 on Talk:Ghost in the Shell

Hi. I just recently saw Innocence and Episodes 3 & 4 of GitS:SAC (and got hooked!) and added the pages here to my watchlist. I noticed your question about the translation of kōkaku from back in April and provided an answer there. Hope it helps! --SandChigger 16:05, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Re: Modification on population of Meguro, Tokyo

The new population figures inserted by me were taken from the official website. I think there are something inconsistent in the official figure. --Wrightbus (talk) 11:57, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:57, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Stillwaterising (talk) 00:50, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

I'm looking at WP:NOTCENSORED and I'm reading this clause "Obviously inappropriate content (such as an irrelevant link to a shock site, or clear vandalism) is usually removed quickly. Content that is judged to violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy, or that violates other Wikipedia policies (especially neutral point of view) or the laws of the U.S. state of Florida where Wikipedia's servers are hosted, will also be removed." This policy actually supports removal. - Stillwaterising (talk) 03:09, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Vari-Lite

In response to comments at the top of the Vari-Lite page and in its Revision History...

I registered to edit the Vari-lite page, because it was (for once) a subject I actually knew something about, having worked extensively as a freelancer for the European and German offices from 1990 - 2002.

Please rest assured, that this account was NOT set up as a "single purpose" account for the editing of this article and that, should I happen to find other articles to which I can make verifiable contributions, then I will log in and do so.

Please also note that, although I tried to convey some of the excitement that surrounded the development of the company's earlier products (for they were exciting times indeed), the article was certainly not intended to be an advert for the brand and I believe that I made an honest attempt to add some balance, by noting some of the problems encountered in certain models; e.g. The poor output of the VL3, the unreliability of the VL4, problems in Europe with the C3 dimmer module, the toxicity of the material used in the VL5 Arc liquid lens and overall problems with the VL7, which led to its effective commercial failure and early withdrawal by many distributors and rental partners. I also pointed out in the final section, that the company's products were not based on wholly new ideas and that other, similar systems were under development at the same time.

There were a couple of other, darker aspects of the company's history that I could have included; such as the allegations that the company was deliberately overvalued by its management for its NASDAQ floatation and the (at the time) notorious "Vari-lite Attitude"; but these are largely anecdotal and difficult to research / verify from where I am today - so I left them out.

I was aware, as I first-time contributor, that there might be a some issues with what I had written and that my knowledge of the subject was incomplete; but did my best to add as many sources as possible. I also made a post on the Lightnetwork forums, inviting other lighting industry professionals to correct and contribute to this article; but sadly nobody has come forward so far.

I hope that what I've written will inspire others to improve and complete the article, in line with the high standards set by Wikipedia and look forward to reading their contributions.
