Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, such as on Talk:Richard Dawkins, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or  located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. Sky Machine  ( ++ ) 03:51, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 18
Hi. When you recently edited Third Temple, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page NASB (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi There ArchangelV2, I've had to delete this image sorry. Wikipedia does not host commercial for-sale image (like ones from Getty images). Please note also that non-free content criteria 1 dictates usually that we do not host non-free images of living people. - Peripitus (Talk) 07:23, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

What can I use? This is entirely too much trouble to just upload one small image. --ArchangelV2 (talk) 07:44, 28 June 2012 (UTC)ArchangelV2
 * Unfortunately nothing at present. There are many Flickr users who've uploaded images of her and you could ask one of them to change the licence on one of their images, though I can see that at least one has been asked in the past without effect. Failing that the only option is to get someone with a camera to go to one of her many public appearances....or send an email to her publicist asking for a creative commons image ? - Peripitus (Talk) 08:28, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Seriously? I have never had an issue like this on other wikias. Why are the copyright policies here so strict? --ArchangelV2 (talk) 00:07, 29 June 2012 (UTC)ArchangelV2
 * It's a part of the main goal of the site - "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" - the aim is to make the site as close to unrestricted by copyright as possible. The foundation allowed individual language wikipedia's to set their own rules, to an extent, for what "non-free" content is allowed and the English Wikipedia came up with non-free content. As for why you created a user page - I think you pressed on your (red) name in one of your signature links. This opens up the edit window for your user page. By default no user has a user or talk page - they are created on the first edit - Peripitus (Talk) 03:41, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
