Participant alert regarding Wikiproject on Advertising
The Wikiproject No Ads, created as a backlash against the Answers.com deal, has served an important function in providing a space for users to express their disagreement with the Foundation proposal. While the current controversies about userboxes raise questions about political and social advocacy on Wikipedia, there should be greater flexibility regarding advocacy about Wikipedia in the Wikipedia namespace. Reported and linked by Slashdot and other press sources as a unique and spontaneous occurence in Wikipedia history, it has apparently had some impact as, despite being scheduled to begin in January, not a peep has been heard about the trial and proposed sponsored link since the deal's controversial announcement months ago. Currently, however, there is an attempt to delete the project or move it off Wikipedia altogether. Since the Foundation has provided no additional information and has not attempted to answer the specific questions that participants in the project raised, it is unclear if the Answers.com deal has been abandoned or simply delayed. Until the situation becomes more clear, I believe the group should still have a place in the Wikipedia namespace. Sincerely, Tfine80 00:17, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

I've removed the prod tag from this because 1. you didn't really justify placing the tag 2. Google turns up some credible references. If you still think the article should be deleted, refer it to AfD. Gazpacho 11:50, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Another Esperanzial note...
Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".

The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.

Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,

Electoral districts of NSW
Hi Alphax,

Thanks for taking an interest in these pages. I want to draw your attention to a electoral district list I've been working on that might help you update these pages.

Also in your last edit of the Electoral district of Bega, I would argue that William Wood is better as two rows because it describes his party affiliation at different periods of his office.

I'll move you in just a second, I just wanted to say I'm sad to see that you wish to no longer be a part of Esperanza. If I may, could you tell me why?

Steven Levitt AfD Discussion
Your presence is requested at the Steven Levitt deletion discussion. Wikipedia needs to be streamlined, and we can't possibly document every godless crackpot who comes up with some inane "theory". By creating articles on people who are out of touch with American values, we only give them a platform to preach their otherwise non-notable message from. Thanks for your time. :)

cc-by-2.5
I see you are the creator of the cc-by-2.5 template. I notice that there is an area for text to appear in the logo. It says "By:" and there is an ampty space. I assume thats where the rights holder name goes, but I don't see how to get my name there. I tried but the text does not appear. Is that how the template was designed? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 00:30, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

Self edits
Hi, You left a welcome message as soon as I joined wikipedia. I had a little question regarding policy. I remember hearing/reading that a person is not allowed to edit their own page on wikipedia. Is there such a policy? What is the action to be taken for violators?

Thanks --Nkv 11:02, 10 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. I asked you that because I found a page in which the content was considerably altered by the person about whom the article is. I just wanted to know if action needs to be taken or atleast the alterations discussed. --Nkv 06:50, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

I was told by the developers of the Ur-Quan Masters that the art/visuals are not yet licensed in any open-source manner, and that they intend to release them under a CC license eventually (but hadn't yet when I spoke to them.) Therefore, I believe this image is fair use, unless something has changed. Andre (talk) 20:41, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Your request for adminship
It is with regret that I have to inform you that your recent request for adminship has been unsuccessful on this occasion. You received a final result of just over 67% support and we only promote people who receive below 75% support in exceptional circumstances. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing an adminship nomination with your name on it again in the future. -- Francs2000 12:25, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
