Framebuffer edit

I've restored the proposition for merging Framebuffer and Video RAM. There's no intention of merging the articles until/unless discussion from other users clearly supports the proposal. If you don't think they should be merged, don't worry - if you're right, other users will back you up. The proposal isn't meant to carry any real weight, only to attract discussion. So please please don't let this deter you from working on the article, though! Thanks! StuartBrady 22:41, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Merges edit

Just letting you know, when you propose to merge articles, I think you're supposed to place a merge tag in both of the articles. StuartBrady 21:12, 19 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image:Tgx.jpg edit

You say we have permission to upload it - is this just for Wikipedia, or for anyone? We can't accept images that are just permission for us. Secretlondon 14:10, 26 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

RE: Wii technical problems -> Wii Remote#Reception edit

I'd be willing to give it a try. The key in rewording would be to document the developers' hurdles in coming to grips with the new control style. Just64helpin 16:05, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

I've made my first few attempts here. I should have something suitable later today. Just64helpin 19:38, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
That's okay by me. Just64helpin 20:04, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Since there no longer seems to be a deadline, I think I'll finish up the sandbox text tomorrow. Just64helpin 20:58, 7 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for the delay, but it's posted now. Feel free to contribute to it. Just64helpin 18:00, 11 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Wii Homebrew Consensus edit

Just wanted to run this by you... I am attempting to gather examples of notoriety of the Wii Opera SDK for the Wii Homebrew atticle and gathered new articles about it [[[1]]] and [[[2]]]. Would you consider this to be enough notoriety for inclusion under Wii Homebrew? Also, we both really need to work on cleaning up that article because most of the Web-related links are self-plugs that no one knows exist. I removed the broken links and fake links about a month ago, but I haven't done anything since then. Geekrecon 04:34, 24 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Image:Wiicade.gif listed for deletion edit

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Wiicade.gif, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. —PNG crusade bot (feedback) 21:45, 14 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Wiicade.gif) edit

  Thanks for uploading Image:Wiicade.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. NotifyBot (talk) 12:39, 17 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Nintendo DSi Browser edit

Jbanes, I've just expanded the section under the Nintendo DS Browser article for the DSi. Since we've both done our own browser sleuthing, I'm sure you have some items to add there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Geekrecon (talkcontribs) 12:28, 29 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Articles for deletion nomination of Atomic Energy Insights edit

I have nominated Atomic Energy Insights, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Atomic Energy Insights (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Crusio (talk) 22:25, 28 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Non-free rationale for File:Shark! Shark!.PNG edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Shark! Shark!.PNG. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:22, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of File:Tgx.jpg edit

 

The file File:Tgx.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

unused, low-res, no obvious use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:01, 17 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
