Chess
Hi, I'd just like to let you know that the chess tournament has started. You will play User:SDSUPinoy. Look at the rules, decide with your opponent what colour you will play, and then start playing! If you have any questions either ask me or try Wikipedia talk:Chess championship. Good luck! Gkhan 23:58, May 15, 2005 (UTC)


 * Just a reminder that you are currently in violation of the 24-hour rule; I highly suggest you make a move or else it will be assumed that you have resigned. Linuxbeak | Desk 00:27, May 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry Acela, but we had to boot you from the tournament due to inactivity. Maybe next time you'll be able to play; we'd like to have you! Linuxbeak | Desk 01:07, May 19, 2005 (UTC)

Hamster
Hello! You marked picture of hamster with tag. Could you, please, tell me if you are the original author of this photo, and if not, who is? --romanm (talk) 23:56, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for your support
Thank you for voting on my RFA. Have some pie! I was pleasantly surprised by the sheer number of supporters (including several people that usually disagree with my opinion). I shall do my best with the proverbial mop. Yours, Radiant_ &gt;|&lt; 08:14, Jun 8, 2005 (UTC)

Template:Yu-Gi-Oh!
I was wondering if you'd do anything to cut down the size (through formatting) of that template since it is huge. Thanks gren 01:04, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Acelalogo.jpg
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Acelalogo.jpg. 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 11:13, 7 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Fair use rationale for Image:Time_newengine_lg.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Time_newengine_lg.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at 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 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. Rettetast 21:42, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Image:Time_oldengine_lg.jpg
I have tagged Image:Time_oldengine_lg.jpg as no rationale, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. Thank you. Rettetast 21:42, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
