added to missing wikipedians
Hi - Just thought I'd let you know somebody added you to missing wikipedians so when you return you should remove yourself from this list. I expect you're not actually gone, but don't really know. If you are, I assume you've found something else of interest in your life and wish you the best. -- Rick Block (talk) 17:51, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Katar.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Katar.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this:.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 15:45, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

About Kiev
I have some problem when I edit Kiev. I want to add Beijing as one of Kiev's sister cities (Twin cities) in the table but I do not know how to add it. Also, I do not know to find who to help me. So, I randomly find an Administrator to help me. Please help me! If you want to know more about the sister cities of Beijing, you can go to Beijing and then go to the part of City and regional partnerships.Thank you!

you still around?
Hey - I've been real world distracted for a while, and looks like you have been as well. Are you still around? Seems like you don't have an email address set up. Please post something, if for no other reason than just to let folks know you're OK. -- Rick Block (talk) 05:09, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

making new articles/pages
I'd like to ask you, how do I make separate/new pages for a particular article? I've notice that Highlander movies article is very large and not handled very well. How do I help to separate this article like the ones with Star Trek, Star Wars, etc? Maybe as a moderator, you can help? Thanks. HoneyBee 03:48, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Whobot/Pearlebot log in status clue shortage
Hi, I have a need to do some readonly access (not updating pages, at least not yet) to WP from within a perlscript I'm working on and thought using pearlebot/whobot might be a good starting point for the access and parsing utilities. I took a copy of whobot and am trying to call the utility routine getPage ... it has a check to see if the user is logged in or not. I changed it to my ID but since I'm running from the command line in a dosbox, I think I am not. This despite taking a copy of the fake cookie file and trying to change it around. I didn't quite follow how bots are logged in... is there a trick to being logged in? Thanks for any suggestions where to read! + +Lar: t/c 19:42, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Who has not apparently logged in since January 20. It looks like you're conversing with Beland about this, which is what I'd suggest in Who's absence. -- Rick Block (talk) 17:55, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Indeed... I got quite a bit farther than this question (but still have more...) so it's no biggie that Who didn't answer. Thanks. + +Lar: t/c 23:19, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

Wonder what the policy is
Hey Joe Gotta Question. I was bopping around Wikipedia and visited one of the pages I previous helped out on. It is now up for deletion which really surprised me because the reason stated was that there were no citations for sources on the facts. But, there were more citations than I've seen on most pages. So I went to the discussion about the proposed deletion and it was pretty insane. One person called it a witch hunt. Seems one person has a big issue with the page and is going about trash talking and campaigning, misrepresenting facts, and all that nice stuff. What happens when a bully does that kind of thing? The guy seems whole bent on driving this page out of existence, which I'm neither here nor there about. It just seems wrong that its not for policy. Since Wikipedia isn't about policing, does that also mean that there are no rules for those who don't honor the honor system? 'this article's entry Brotherstork 03:07, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

He is Risen
 Jesus Christ is risen today, Alleluia! our triumphant holy day, Alleluia! who did once upon the cross, Alleluia! suffer to redeem our loss. Alleluia! Hymns of praise then let us sing, Alleluia! unto Christ, our heavenly King, Alleluia! who endured the cross and grave, Alleluia! sinners to redeem and save. Alleluia! But the pains which he endured, Alleluia! our salvation have procured, Alleluia! now above the sky he's King, Alleluia! where the angels ever sing. Alleluia!

I wasn't the one who left the speedy tag; I left the hangon and followed up with a talk page message.

Your comment would better have been directed to User:Calton, who had speedied it in the first place. Daniel Case 13:55, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Back?
Hi - I see you're doing some editing. Does this mean you're back? I added the "he's not likely to respond" banner that shows up at the bottom of this page (source is at the top of the page). If you're just "testing the water" and want to leave it for a while, that's OK with me. If you are back, you might want to delete it (and you may want to visit Missing Wikipedians). I really don't want to pressure you, but you've been sorely missed and if you are back it will make me VERY happy. -- Rick Block (talk) 15:46, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Ditto. --Kbdank71 15:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yea. I've been a bit restless and doing some playing around whilest getting ready to go on trip. Leave Tues. I think I will prolly come back when we get back, but slowly. Give me something to do. Just been really buzy around here, too much stuff to do plus wiki.  Thanks for noticing and the msgs.  I was seriously thinking they were complaints from my edits :)  Good thing it was ya'll.

Unspecified source for Image:Gabriel damon pd.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Gabriel damon pd.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify 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 file 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 meets the criteria at Fair use, 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 uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shannernanner 13:46, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Image:Rose byrne.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Rose byrne.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives 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. -- Chowbok   ☠  02:44, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
