Thanks!

I noted that peppercorn was changed from a redirect to an article, but never got around to reinstating the redirect. Thanks for doing it! By the way, you should give edit summaries to your edits. Great work. — Edward Z. Yang^(Talk) 22:38, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Gandhiindia1.jpg

Hi,

Refer to Image:Gandhiindia1.jpg. Can you please specify the source of the photograph. Also, there is a genuine doubt on its authenticity as stated in the image summary recorded some time back by an anonymous IP. I seem to share the concerns raised by him and feel that even if its free, it should not be used if its doctored.

Regards,

Grand Supercycle

Nice edits. Keep it up. Regards, Punanimal

Can you tell me your (Nirvana2031) name because I need it to cite this article. Also let me know of any major contributions you have made.

Chilli pepper

Hi Nirvana -

I would personally prefer the spelling Chilli pepper as well - before today I had no idea there was any other, but carrying out a Google test revealed that Chili pepper seems to be by far the most widely used so I put in the request for that. Would you like the survey changed? With the US contingent it seems unlikely Chilli would win the day, though. — SteveRwanda 15:05, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Leedsuniversity.JPG

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Leedsuniversity.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images 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. GeeJo ^(t)⁄_(c) • 20:15, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Please also note that I've also just uploaded a free licence alternative image at much higher resolution to the Commons, courtesy of Leeds City Council, located here. GeeJo ^(t)⁄_(c) • 20:15, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Inflation

RfC on the wording of gold as a measure of inflation is at Talk:Inflation. Your input would be appreciated. Carbonate 00:29, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

End of civilization

Please don't change the End of civilization article without consensus, there was no consensus for this. Reverted it all back. I realize you posted on the page and no one responded but I never saw it until now. There are good reasons for how it is, and the proposed change has a number of problems. -- Stbalbach 20:43, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

i agree with your latest post regarding the poor intro in this article. Nirvana2013, you are correct that the intro part you quoted should not be there. i recently edited that sentence to fix it and another editor very quickly reverted my alteration. I have taken another stab at it. but you are correct...each article must have an intro definition that makes sense, before we discuss moving, merging etc. by the way i have added an important future scenario under the "future scenarios" on ecological disaster. let me know what you think. best regards. Anlace 15:42, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

thanks for your response. and its not just global warming, but deforestation and the Holocene mass extinction are right up there along with water crisis and collapse of arable land. More importantly, what do you think of the move of the article End of civilization to a broader term. i expressed by objections on the talk page of that article. i think End of civilization needs to be restored and allowed to develope. "end of civilization" does not necessarily imply end of the world or even humanity. cheers. Anlace 18:04, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Deleted link to E-Gold Keeper from E-Gold

Hi, I'm not sure that your decision to delete this link is right. I think it is quite useful to know about such application. I can't write in English good enough to write an article about such kind of applications, but if you understand Russian or Ukrainian I can prepare materials on one of named language.

Philanthropist

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Philanthropist, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Philanthropist. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. — Sebastian (talk) 03:50, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Untagged image

An image you uploaded, Image:StPaulsSchoolCrest.jpg, was tagged with the {{coatofarms}} copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as {{seal}}. If you have any questions, ask them at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. -- 15:18, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:StPaulsSchoolCrest.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:StPaulsSchoolCrest.jpg, 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.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:StPaulsSchoolCrest.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:StPaulsSchoolCrest.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. BetacommandBot 22:22, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Unspecified source for Image:46664Tromso.jpeg

Thanks for uploading Image:46664Tromso.jpeg. 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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

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 06:26, 7 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MER-C 06:26, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:Thecelestineprophecy.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Thecelestineprophecy.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 03:21, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

Meaning of life

You may remember me as User:Go for it!. We collaborated on the article Meaning of life back in '05, and I've been reviewing the history of that article, especially for the first subsection which lists various life purposes. The section has deteriorated some (not too much), but has morphed a lot over the past 2 years (with great entries and various structures coming and going), and based on the excellent work you did on the section, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking a look at it and applying some of your editing magic to it again in an effort to maintain the article to a high standard and to improve it further. Sincerely, The Transhumanist    21:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Nelsonmandela200.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Nelsonmandela200.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. Ricky81682 (talk) 07:21, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

VirtualGold

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article VirtualGold, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. B. Wolterding 11:20, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of NetPay

An editor has nominated NetPay, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NetPay and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 02:29, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for watching article:Soy cheese due to vandalism

This article is constantly vandalized by one single user, who seems to plan its deletion or destruction (see also Talk:Soy cheese). I am watching over the article from now on, but it is better when more people interested in this subject (especially vegans, people with dairy digesting problems like lactose intolerance or Jews) are looking upon this more frequently.
Thank you :-)
