Wikiproject: Green Bay Packers:

Hi again feel free to talk about expanding the packers wikiproject.

Welcome!
Hi, and welcome to WikiProject Green Bay Packers! We are a group of Wikipedians with one common interest, the Green Bay Packers!

There are many things you can do to help out and get yourself involved. Here is a few suggestions.
 * First visit the main page and our discussion page to see whats going on.
 * You can add WikiProject Green Bay Packers to talk pages of Green Bay Packers-related articles, and please assess them as well.
 * You can categorize Green Bay Packers articles into their proper categories.
 * Visit the main page and look under Tasks to see any other things that need to be done.

If you have any comments, suggestions, or would like to talk about the project in general, feel free to leave a message on the talk page or contact User:Gonzo fan2007. Thanks for your interest in the project, and let's go out and work on those articles! I see that you have already offered your help with A.J. Hawk, thats awesome! Let's see if we can get this article into really great condition. Feel free to ask me anything if you have any questions! Gonzo fan2007 talk ♦ contribs 18:38, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

RfA nom.
Hello! I must inform you that I'm going to have to decline your offer to nominate me at this time. After the failed RfA for User:RC-0722 (he has about 300 more edits that I do), It probably would be in the best interest that I wait for a while before accepting another nom. If you ever need any help or have any other questions about Wikipedia, please feel free to ask me on my talk page. Drop a line! Burner0718 (talk) 20:17, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism and are immediately reverted. If you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you. Nakon 23:37, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for Adminship (RFA)
Hey Pookeo9 there are certain criteria to becoming an administrator. Just signing yourself up does not guarantee that you will become and admin. The guidelines are pretty much common sense. You must have knowledge of Wikipedia's Core Policies, it is recommended you have more than 3 months experience and you have more than a certain amount of edits (I forgot). Most of all you must be trusted by the community. Knowing all of this does not guarantee admin tools. There are other issues that need to worked out, so if you try again take into consideration what others have to say. I failed at my RFA but I have taken into consideration everything people said and in a couple months I will try again. So I suggest that in a couple months to a year you try getting an admin coach and when they feel that you are ready try becoming an admin. But until then work hard and continue to help this project.

Duplicate images uploaded
Thanks for uploading Image:Tony Allen guarding the ball.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Act tony allen.jpg. The copy called Image:Act tony allen.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot (talk) 18:30, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Request for mediation not accepted

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Pookeo9
I have withdrawn your request for adminship because, at the final tally of 1,7,0, (for the sake of neutrality, the tally could be considered 1,6,0 discarding my vote as the closer) it had almost no chance of passing. Please consider what the opposition has stated, and try again in a few months time. Thank you, -- Anonymous Dissident  Talk 23:59, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
 * You may also want to consider WP:ADOPT. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 00:00, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * And you may want to consider working on mainspace before you apply for rollback. &mdash; B o L 00:50, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Tony Allen guarding the ball.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Tony Allen guarding the ball.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, 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, 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 Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See 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 Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 01:19, 29 January 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.  Mønobi 01:19, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Adoption
Hi, Pooke09, and welcome to the frightening but wonderful world of Wikipedia! We have a scheme here in which experienced users help new ones along the way a little and help them to avoid getting messages like the ones you have above here. If you would like me to do this, I have some spare time at present, and can help you with some of the complicated things. If you're happy with this, drop me a line on my talk page (it's linked from my signature, just click the + on top of my talk page when you get there), let me know what sort of editing you want to do, and we can take it from there. If this isn't what you want to do, you may find yourself getting more and more annoying messages. Up to you, of course. Cheers! -- Rodhullandemu  (Talk) 01:24, 29 January 2008 (UTC)re
 * I'd be willing to adopt you. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 01:32, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * OK. If you'd like, you can put on your userpage. I will check up on your edits and give you pointers. Happy editing! JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 03:23, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Your rollback request
Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Requests for rollback/Denied/January 2008. RFRBot (talk) 03:00, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Your edits to Sarcoganif's disease and its deletion discussion
I think that by blanking the page, you were trying to close the AfD. I'm certain that it will close as a delete but I suggest letting admin handle it. The discussion is only a day old and AfDs typically last about five days before the decision is acted on. Enviroboy TalkCs 21:19, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rubens Gerchman
Hi, I'd reccomend not nominating an article for deletion because it is out of shape. Thanks. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 03:23, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Pookeo9 -- I notice that you closed this AfD discussion, but you didn't get the formatting quite right, and you forgot to add the old afd tag to the talk page. I've fixed these for you, but in future it's best to follow the procedure at Deletion_process. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 10:36, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

RFA thanks
Thanks for your support in my RFA, that didn't quite make it and ended at 120/47/13. There was a ton of great advice there, that I'm going to go on. Maybe someday. If not, there are articles to write! Thanks for your support. Lawrence §  t / e  18:03, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
