FOX Television Stations

Have been having some vandalism on that page today....I couldn't revert back as far as you did. Appericate the help:)

Rock on....SVRTVDude 00:20, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the compliment! --WCQuidditch 00:39, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

WGMS/WETA/WETH

Heyas,

With the impending switch of the WGMS calls from 103.5 to 89.1 (in Hagerstown...owned by WETA), I was wondering how to un-redirect WETH from WETA and switch the information of WETH to WGMS, along with the 103.5/104.1 information on WGMS with Wiki links to WETA.

Hope all that made sense:)

Rock on....SVRTVDude 22:41, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Reverts

The reverts you did to WBZ-TV and KATV are part of an ongoing problem. It is coming from various IP addresses all from Verizon out of Boston. I have reverted as many as I can find (wasn't online to correct those or I would have). I have put the IPs on WP:AIV to no avail. Am not sure what can be done. - SVRTVDude 21:51, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm already aware that it is part of a greater issue; I had already seen the contribs for the IP that made the WBZ/KATV vandalism by the time you informed me (and it had also touched articles for WUSA, KXTV, KUSA, WVII, and several others using that IP alone!). Thanks for the reminder, though! --WCQuidditch 22:02, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Not a problem:) Glad I can be as assistance:) - SVRTVDude 22:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Khbs-khog.jpg)

Hey, Wcquidditch... I have no objection to that image being removed (since a suitable replacement was found and is currrently there). Should I just let the WP:SPEEDY go on or can we expedite that process? Amnewsboy 00:22, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Well, if you have no objection, then I guess it can go... --WCQuidditch 00:52, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:WTWO2006.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:WTWO2006.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

I'm Already Did

But I Did put the sandbox. -4.68.248.134 23:11, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

The message I left to your talk page (well, before this one, obviously) has been there for two months... and (if I'm interpreting your message correctly) your edit to the sandbox came just three minutes before you posted your message to me. Which means that you had not edited the sandbox before my message. Thus, I don't see why you needed to post a message regarding that. (Of course, nothing regarding this came up within those two months either...) --WCQuidditch 00:25, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
