Star Trek images
editYou said that you wanted to know what was needed to keep the images. All images uploaded need to have a clear source, fair use rationale, and copyright tag. Images from startrek.com should not be loaded, as the site's rules prohibit it for this use, and it has been discussed at length for the publicity shots of several characters from the series. The best accepatable images are generally screen caps, with the source clearly stating the name of the series and episode name it was taken from. It also needs a fair use rationale for every article its being used in, not just in general. Then you need to make sure it has the proper copyright tag, is it from a TV show, is it from a film, etc. For a great example, just see image:JadziaDax.jpg, image:TomParis.jpg, and image:GeordiLaForge.jpg - the images have all the required information. I myself have copied and reused this as a template on other Trek images, though you need to make sure you change it to conform with the image/article it is for, as it has information pertinent to their respective articles. Hope this helps, if you need more help, just let me know and I'll try to help as much as I can. Ejfetters 06:51, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

editIn a recent edit, you changed one or more words from one international variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For subjects exclusively related to Britain (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to other English-speaking countries, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the appropriate variety of English used there. If it is an international topic, use the same form of English the original author used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to the other, even if you don't normally use the version the article is written in. Respect other people's versions of English. They in turn should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. If you have any queries about all this, you can ask me on my talk page or you can visit the help desk. Thank you. ~~ [ジャム][t - c] 10:03, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, I didn't know about that. "artefact" was listed as a spelling mistake by my browser so I thought it was a typo. I still think it makes it look wrong, whereas something like color or colour, defense or defence, seems more common in plural usage, but I respect that. Thanks again.

- No worries. Artefact is the correct British English spelling, which is the standard that has been adopted by myself and a few other regular Tomb Raider article editors (considering it is primarily a British article). ~~ [ジャム][t - c] 10:19, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
License tagging for File:DarkHorse.png
editThanks for uploading File:DarkHorse.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 04:07, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:DarkHorse.png
editThanks for uploading File:DarkHorse.png. 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 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).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk) 06:34, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
help
edityou don't know me but I'm contacting you because from your contributions on here you seem to know a lot about some things that im having a hard time understanding and I'm trying to build a machine that requires knowledge of which i don't have. I was hoping I could ask you some questions about high frequency RF waves and plasma carrier waves, sideband harmonics, oscillators and transmitters? is there any way that you would be willing to communicate with me to answer a few questions. I'm desperate. I appreciate your time, Lisa Costa Pxyfox2000 (talk) 01:10, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
