You may want to change your signature since I've deleted the link from the green "Guy01" part. It wasn't a registered user and you can't redirect to special pages. GFOLEY FOUR— 23:24, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Perfectly reasonable, I have already done that. SunCountryGuy 01 23:28, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Intelligence Portal?

I was wondering when there will be a "Portal" for WikiProject Intelligence. I would like to add it to my user subpage as part of an article but it comes up in red meaning invalid link. What do I call you, since you've changed your username a few times? Adamdaley (talk) 08:01, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes there is an Intelligence portal. I have been working on it as a user-space draft for some time now. The portal is right here: Portal:Intelligence. Also I must commend you on the growth of your user space draft. I has shown much improvement from where you first created it. Another thing, are you familiar with the template which is used to put those portal boxes on articles. Im unfamiliar with that. Jessy T/C 20:26, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the compliment on my subpage article. Over the last 2 days I've tried to fix up the footnotes and references to make them sound clearer to the reader. As for the portl template for the one I am using on my subpage article it is: ((Portal|Biography|Espionage|Military History)) - Make them the squidly brackets, Portal, each portal is separated with | then end it with the squidly brackets. So far I have only managed to get three Portals in one box as you can see on my subpage article. Once I add the Portal Intelligence, the Portal Military History disappears. So it might be useful to put two Portals in one Portal box, then two more Portals in a second box, if there are four. Maybe there is a way, but I haven't figured it out yet. As for the one of the books, I have in my posession, it's a library book and is due back this Thursday ... I need to get as much information from it before then. The other two books are fine, I own them so no need to rush the update of the article until I am satisfied with it. Thinking another six to seven thousand bytes would be enough to the article then move it over to the main page. Also, I use "Twinkle", so if anything happens on WikiProject Intelligence once it's up and running with articles, I can help using "Twinkle". Adamdaley (talk) 22:37, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
I want to improve the intelligence portal with a DYK section but my brain is dead right now. could you possibly help me by thinking up some ideas. I would really appreciate it, Thanks. Jessy T/C 22:53, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
I don't know how. Maybe as in the #wikipedia-en-help channel? Adamdaley (talk) 23:16, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Applying Template?

I'm fairly new to Wikipedia. I've have however been contributing over at DMOZ for over 6 years. Feel free to apply any template you see fit .. I need to do a bit more reading before I go down that road.

BTW, I own some Haitian paintings and just released them under creative commons for non commercial use. However, wikimedia is complaining about something that it doesn't like . It is the Red Loa photo ... Help... ;) Jakemathai (talk) 02:53, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

File source problem with File:FBI Atlanta Office.jpg

 

Thank you for uploading File:FBI Atlanta Office.jpg. 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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 16:02, 21 March 2011 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. 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 or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Damiens.rf 16:02, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:March of the Canadian Forces Intelligence Branch.mid

 

Thanks for uploading File:March of the Canadian Forces Intelligence Branch.mid. 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 "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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Breawycker (talk to me!)

Subpage Article

I was wondering if you could do an assessment of the article I'm re-doing, referencing, sourcing and footnotes for. Basically expanding it. It's located at: User:Adamdaley/biographies - I'm not done as yet. I've just finished his "Early Career" and I've added the mugshot of him further down the article. Assess it as if it was going to be part of the WikiProject Intelligence. Would like to know what assessment I can get "as is" at the moment. You have to remember I'm not finished with it, so the suggested rating could change. Leave your comment on its discussion page. It would be appreciated. Adamdaley (talk) 00:07, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for looking at it and puting the citations needed. Basically everyone I've asked to look at it, has said it needs more references. I have 3 days which include's today to have the library book before it's return. The other two books: Andrew (1999) and Hearn (2006), are my own. This is the first article that I'm doing such as information by myself with the odd person here and there doing minor things. Once again I appreciate it. Adamdaley (talk) 00:50, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

I Mifter (talk) hereby present you, SunCountryGuy01 with the Law Enforcement Barnstar, for your great contributions to the field of Law Enforcement Articles on Wikipedia. Keep up the good work! Mifter (talk) 02:36, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

I saw your contribs while checking over some of the old articles I had written (FBI Buffalo Field Office) and I though that this might be warrented for all of your work with Law Enforcement related articles. Also, have you considered joing WP:WPLE the law enforcement wikiproject? Best, Mifter (talk) 02:36, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Your RFA

I have closed your RfA prematurely per the snowball clause. The clear consensus is that you need more experience (at least 6 months) until you think of running again. I hope this does not weaken your spirit. If you continue to contribute to the project in a positive fashion, I am confident that you would be able to submit a successful RfA in the future.
