Book
Hi Astronaut, I'm editing a book and would like to get in touch with you regarding getting permissions to use your chart found at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:BurjDubaiHeight.png. Is there an email address I can contact you at? Germanethings (talk) 02:47, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I am a very private person and would not be willing to give you my address. However, you can ask here; or if you wish you may like to contact me by email using the "E-mail this user" link in the toolbox to the left (but please note I very rarely use that email address and haven't checked it for months).  You might also consider using the updated (and more accurate) version of the chart, File:BurjKhalifaHeight.svg.  Astronaut (talk) 17:12, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

COI assistance
Hi astronaut. A couple of years back you helped me with avoiding COI issues with a page for the company I worled for at the time Sinclair Knight Merz. The company I work for now also wishes me to assist them with a Wikipedia page and once again, I'd like to do this the right way. I thought you might like to render your assistance in this. As far as notability goes, the firm is NetComm Limited, and they are a manufacturer of routers, modems etc, kind of like D-Link, Netgear etc. We are a major supplier to some big carriers like Australia's Telstra, particularly of high-speed 3G devices. The company is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange.

Anyway, I have started to mock up the content on my Talk page [] and wondered if you might want to take a look to see that it is NPOV enough?

Thanks --Mat Hardy (talk) 05:38, 8 February 2010 (UTC)


 * First of all, I think you may be mistaken in the amount of help I provided. IIRC (and according to my editing history) I merely complimented you on your decision to start the Sinclair Knight Merz article with a draft in your talk page.  Many novice editors, start their first article in the main article namespace where it is subject to close scrutiny and is often speedily deleted before they get too far developing the article.  Starting with a draft in your talk page was unlike many novice editors, and at that time I had been paying attention to some new articles with spam & COI problems; I felt the compliment was justified.  That said, I am quite happy to help you with this new article where I can.
 * Next, it is probably better to create the draft in a separate subpage rather than a section of your talk page. Perhaps if you moved what you have so far into User:Mathardy/NetComm.  That will make it far easier to move the whole page into the main article namespace once it is OK, while maintaining the article history (this is required by the terms under which all contributions are released).  It also has the advantage of a separate discussion page, and of removing your talk page from categories.
 * In terms of what you have actually written so far, it is not too bad. I think it is mostly free of the advertising tone and peacock terms that usually litter articles about businesses, especially when an employee (or worse still marketing departments) write about their company.  However, make sure you do not copy company materials verbatim - copyright violation is taken seriously and is often speedily deleted.  If you can provide citations from reliable sources, preferably third-party sources rather than NetComm's own material, that would help establish notability.  I suggest you take a look at Wikipedia's policy on the notability of companies.  You could also take a look at the articles for some other companies and see how it is done there.
 * If you wish to add the company logo, pay careful attention to the licensing. It is easy to be accused of copyright violation and having the image speedily deleted.  See File:Telstra.svg for an example of licensing that appears to work.
 * You might also like to seek additional assistance from another editor. I would suggest User:Prodego, who also complimented you on Sinclair Knight Merz and is an administrator who is much more familiar with the rules and polices that I am.  Please do come back here, or on User talk:Mathardy/NetComm if you create the subpage, if you need further assistance.  Astronaut (talk) 17:13, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

Miapolis
Just thought I'd let you know about this; in case you didn't already know. Here is their promotional video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U738MYMkk_I Daniel Christensen (talk) 04:38, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * The whole project is weird. If it is the one I think it is, I first heard of it some years ago when it was "proposed" somewhere else (on the west coast?).  The website back then was very amateur, with images that looked like they had been made by an over-enthusiastic 15-year old.  Since then, they seem to have got a better drawing package, moved to Florida and convinced someone at the Miami Herald to at least pretend to take them seriously.
 * As for the merits of the project, I can see some huge problems: Miami is subject to hurricanes; a building that tall would be a significant hazard to flights to/from Miami International Airport - one of the busiest airports in the USA; the funding plan is ludicrous - someone, with no track record in this kind of thing, asking small investors for "low five-figure" invesments to finance a multi-billion dollar project!; and they don't even own the land!  According to the Miami Herald, the city authorities doubt this is anything other than pie-in-the-sky ("As far as I know, it's ridiculous said Miami Commissioner Marc Sarnoff...")
 * In fact, if it wasn't for the Miami Herald piece, I would probably seek to get the article deleted as an obvious hoax/scam. Astronaut (talk) 06:01, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi User Astronaut.

Merger of Conference committee into Committee
I noticed that Conference seemed to have some content sections after its references section and a stub template. When I went to fix this I found the references section and stub template were actually in another article, which was transcluded.

Reading the talk page, it seems Fabartus attempted to "merge" the smaller article into the larger one. But transclusion is not the proper way to do that, because of the weirdness that ensues e.g. two references sections and inappropriate maintenance templates, dablinks etc. You can fix this to some extent with but really, only articles designed to be transcluded (almost always in the Template namespace) should be transcluded into article space. The proper way to do mergers is using the procedure at Proposed mergers. I've done this, adding the appropriate templates, and if you have any comments you can add them at Talk:Committee.

 * Thanks for the note. Replied on Talk:Committee.  Astronaut (talk) 10:50, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Still accurate?
Is the "U.S. cities containing buildings 700 feet (213 m) or more in height" template on List of tallest buildings in the united States still accurate? That page used to be way to long and took in some cases minutes to load so I split it up wih Raime's help a few months ago. Daniel Christensen (talk) 16:22, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't know. You are the one who changed the list.  One thing though: does the United States buildings template really add value to the article (for the readers)?  TBH, I doubt it.  If the clickable map was to be removed, I think the article would be better for it, and it would be whole lot easier to maintain.  Astronaut (talk) 01:39, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Starting a new TV channel
Are you seriously interested in doing this? I am involved with this area myself. The $64000 question is, will advertising revenues cover the costs? 78.149.194.146 (talk) 17:12, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
 * For the time being, the answer is no. However, it is something I considered doing when a channel I liked closed down with no prospect of a replacement for the type of programming I had enjoyed there; and I had ample spare cash at the time to possibly waste on that kind of venture.  Even though I lack any expertiese in the TV industry, I really felt that it might be possible to set up a small channel almost as a hobby, by paying other people to do almost all the work; and that seems to have been confirmed by the answers to my ref desk question.  A fear though, is a lact of business credibility when it comes to negotiating programming deals and arranging the playout services.  As for making money through large advertising revenues, I felt it was a nice to have if the costs happened to become too high.  But if the money ran out, I though it might be fun to have been a TV exec for a (short?) while.  Astronaut (talk) 02:11, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

There is a great oversupply of material, so you could get content for little or even nominal cost. I happen to have a lot of business credibility. The essential thing is attracting enough of an audience to get enough advertising revenue to cover the costs, which is probably why the channel you mentioned closed down. If you were keen and enthusiastic and willing to work on this then myself and probably one or two other people in the industry might be willing to spend time on setting a channel up for you to run. 84.13.53.211 (talk) 11:25, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Eyjafjallajökull
The BBC ref under 14 April does not support the statement that Norway's airspace was closed, which is why I tagged it as failing verification. That situation remains. Mjroots (talk) 10:26, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

 * UK airspace was not closed yesterday (14 April), it was closed this morning. Mjroots (talk) 10:36, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * That's correct, and that's what it says in the article: "by the morning of 15 April the airspace in the rest of Norway, as well as over most of the UK, and parts of Ireland, was being closed". Astronaut (talk) 10:37, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

Re:June 2010
Excuse me, but how am I being disruptive?? I am simply adding photos related to the article. Every little bit helps, doesn't it? EDIT: I know it seems like a small thing, but I feel it holds relevancy to the article.SwisterTwister (talk) 05:27, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry but no, it doesn't help. Adding images of recycling facilities to general articles about cities is adding unencyclopedic information and is not relevant to the article (unless that city is particularly noted in reliable sources for its unique recycling methods).  In general, trawling through Commons looking for barely related images and being indiscriminate in which images you actually add to an article, is quite disruptive.  Please read Wikipedia's content guideline for images, particularly the sections dealing with Image choice and placement and Pertinence and encyclopedic nature.  Astronaut (talk) 18:39, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

I do understand that it's very trivial, but because apparently I choose the wrong images (Tesco and Recycling bins), I will no longer bother visiting Commons anymore. Also, how was I being disruptive on User:Lord Pistachio's talkpage? Secondly on Left-handedness, why did you remove the second image on the right? But, I will say that adding a gallery on "Accessibility" Left-handedness was useful, thanks. Again, on Durham, North Carolina, why did you remove useful images (such as Life Insurance Building)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by SwisterTwister (talk • contribs) 23:04, 7 June 2010 (UTC)


 * You were not being disruptive on Lord Pistachio's talkpage. According to your contributions, you discussed the issue of the images you had been adding, and appeared to agree to not add any more unencyclopedic images of recycling faclities (shortly after 22:00 on June 2); then went straight back to adding more images (around 03:00 on June 3).
 * On Left-handedness I removed some images and moved some others to improve the flow of the words on the page. Specifically: Another example of a boy writing left-handed added nothing more than the image immediately above (so, no need for both images); Jonny Wilkinson ... is left-handed didn't actually show him doing anything with his left hand; Another example of a Windows computer keyboard was just another poorer version of an image in the same gallery; I changed Arturo López ... throws left-handed to John McEnroe plays left-handed to avoid having only baseball players illustrating that section.  I also gathered the extra images of left-handed implements and skills into a gallery when it became clear there was not enough room for them alongside the text in that section, and moved the entire sports section to below the handwriting section because I think it reads better that way.
 * On Durham, North Carolina I removed two images from the "points of interest" and "culture" sections because there simply was not enough room for 4 images and I removed 3 images of recycling facilities from the gallery because there were irrelevant to Durham (ie. similar facilities exist in many cities around the world and nothing about those particular images said something special about Durham). Specifically: I removed North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance company building from Greystone Manor because it is better illustrated in its own article, North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company Building; I removed A dinosaur statue on the grounds of the Museum of Life and Science because it has a distracting white sign on the right and it is also better illustrated in its own article, Museum of Life and Science.  I reordered the list of transit options so the list wasn't interrupted by the lengthy text about Triangle Bus, and made the thumbnails the same size so the text flowed better.  I also edited the Signpost ... to Durham's sister cities so the image was brighter and resized the thumbnail so it was readable.
 * There is more to adding images to the encyclopedia than stuffing as many as possible into an article just because they exist in Commons. It has do with how it looks on the page at various screen resolutions.  Finally, take a look at how newspapers illustrate their news articles.  For example, this story from The Providence Journal uses just one image relevant to the story; they only used this image of the three defendants on front page to the article and not in the article itself, and there is no image of the RI state house, the inside of the council chambers, the court house, or other vaguely related people or places, even though such images undoubtedly exist.
 * Astronaut (talk) 10:01, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

Fine, what you're saying is understandable EXCEPT.....On Lord Pistachio's talkpage, they said not to add the images to COUNTRIES, he didn't specify cities. I'll agree with you halfway on Left-handedness, an image of Johnny Wilkinson alone is not helpful, without any evidence of actually being left-handed. Another note on Left-handedness I disagree with you is that instead of removing Arturo López, you could've simply moved his image to the Gallery. SwisterTwister (talk) 18:03, 8 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Reading both sets of comments again (User talk:SwisterTwister and User talk:Lord Pistachio), it is clear to me that Lord Pistachio explained quite clearly what they meant: "since every city in the developed world has recycling bins, sticking photos of them in every article does not serve to advance the reader's understanding of any subject ... things that are ubiquitous features of any city, country, etc. shouldn't be mentioned in an article unless they have some kind of special significance to a particular place. I am surprised you misunderstood this to mean it is OK to continue adding the images you have been adding.
 * With the specific case of the Arturo López image on Left-handedness, what purpose would the image serve in the article? Before you add an image, you should be asking yourself "does adding this image add to the reader's understanding of the subject?"  Astronaut (talk) 09:41, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

How would it not adding understanding to the subject? He's obviously seen throwing left-handed, and it's in the sports section. Two, I've seen billboard photos on Wiki, isn't that equally trivial? SwisterTwister (talk) 20:58, 9 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Well actually, the other baseball player is throwing left-handed. Arturo López is just standing there with the ball in his left hand.
 * As for trivial billboard photos, do you mean images/covers from Billboard Magazine, or images of billboards you might see along the roadside? Whether the photos are used in articles is dependant on what they are used for:  In an article about a musician, an example of them appearing in Billboard Magazine cover may be appropriate if that specific cover is mentioned in the text (otherwise it probably breaches the rules on fair-use); a roadside billboard might be appropriate in the billboard article or if city councillors have legislated against billboards their city, but they wouldn't be appropriate just because the billboard happened to be in a city when no other mention is made of billboards in that article (but one could argue a billboard advertizing John Deere tractors might be relevant to a farming community with an important John Deere plant or sales business).
 * Remember, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an indiscriminate collection of text and images. As I said before, just because a photo exists, doesn't necessarily make it suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia.  This is why there is the commonscat template, to allow readers to see more images on Commons without filling articles with barely relevant images.  Astronaut (talk) 00:23, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

On 7 Eleven, I know there were a handful of photos, but the Thailand and China weren't overlapping anything. There were fine the way they were. Photos are helpful to an article. Yes, I know too many are a eyesore but I believe it was fine the way it was. Scandinavia certainly had many photos, but the reason I shifted them aside is because I was attempting to align them in better positions. Secondly, is there a reason you had to remove the image from Radisson Hotels? On third note, why did you remove the outer image of Grauman's Theatre? It was unique against the interior images. On a fourth note, why does it matter if the image is on the left or right? It's image presentation either way. On last question, have you been tracking all of my contributions? I find it intriguing that once I make an edit involving photos, there you are to revert my edit(s).SwisterTwister (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:15, 17 June 2010 (UTC).


 * On 7-Eleven I reverted your edit in which you added File:Wetwipes.thai.jpg and File:HK Jordan 庇利金街 Pilkem Street 7-11 near 寶靈街 Bowring Street.jpg. The wetwipes image says nothing about 7-Eleven, how do we even know they came from a 7-Eleven and not some other store in Thailand?  The Hong Kong image is yet another 7-Eleven that looks just like all the other 7-Elevens I've ever seen in the USA, Europe and Asia.  You are clearly not asking yourself "what value do these extra images add to the article?"  In my opinion they added nothing to the article, especially when it was already becoming a repository for many similar images of 7-Elevens from all around the world.
 * I then went on to make further edits to reduce the number of images and move the remaining images so they were in the relevant section (eg. the Seattle Kwik-E-Mart image consistantly appeared in the Australia section due to the oversized thumbnail of the Super Big Gulp cup. By moving the image of the US headquarters to the history section - where it was beter suited to the subject anyway - and reducing the size of the Super Big Gulp thumbnail, the Seattle Kwik-E-Mart image now appears next to the appropriate paragraph where the Kwik-E-Mart promotion is mentioned).  Although Scandanavia is a large market for 7-Eleven, I felt four images placed undue attention on the Scandanavian franchises.  To be honest, I would have liked to have kept the image with the church, but it was too tall to suit the amount of text and when I reduced the thumbnail size, the already difficult to see 7-Eleven logo just disappeared completely and it just looked like any other church.
 * On Radisson Hotels I removed the File:Radisson Broadway NYC 2007.jpg because it didn't seem to add anything to the article.
 * On Grauman's Egyptian Theatre you should have noticed that File:Egyptian2.jpg was already in the article. The image you added, File:Egyptian.JPG, is similar but is taken from across the street, is crooked, has a distracting lamp post in the middle and a distracting lattice ("American Cinematheque") above the entrance - in all, a poorer photo.
 * It doesn't really matter whether an image is left or right, but I do prefer them on the right. However, one thing to avoid is placing images on both sides of a piece of text, leaving the text to get squished in the middle.  I am not the only one who sometimes uses a narrow display.  With a little though as to where an image can be placed on the page, or whether the image is really necessary at all, such things can be avoided.
 * It is true that I have paid some attention to your recent contributions, but I am not the only one who has reverted your edits - see this diff (and pay particular attention to Coolcaesar's edit summary), this diff (again pay attention to the edit summary) and this diff, for example.
 * Astronaut (talk) 00:18, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

If you feel that my contributions are trivial, I find it trivial that you would edit Gary Sinise just to shift a photo to the other side because of 'preference.' Second, on this edit the reason it was reverted is because I created a gallery. The reason I created a gallery is because I thought to myself "This photo is not relevant to any sections, so I took the time to create a gallery for it. Pinkadelica herself says that the article needs to be "tidy'ed." Third, on AMC Theatres, the NYC photo IS revelant because there is a USA section for it. Third and offtopic, I feel that people are attacking on my edits. I do acknowledge that many of my edits have been incorrect, but I believe people have been uncouth with me on certain edits. Such as Coolcesar on AMC Theatres, can't the article have a gallery? Backtracking to 7-Eleven, well there were two photos, a photo of 7-Eleven wet wipes or yet again another location photo. I felt like being unique and chose the wet wipes photo. As I said before, I believe people have been uncouth with me, such as on Tesco. Perhaps I am taking it too personal, and I guess the best way to put is "I should just stop caring." But what I do understand is Wiki will have it's ups and downs, just like the outside world. SwisterTwister (talk) 18:54, 18 June 2010 (UTC)


 * No, I don't think your contributions are trivial and I have not said that either. With your edit to the Gary Sinese article I assumed, perhaps unfairly, that you were unaware of the upright parameter that can be applied to images and had therefore thought moving the image to the left was the only easy solution to the problem.  As I said in my edit summary, it is better to use "upright" in this case.  In other cases, moving the image to the left might provide the better solution.
 * If the image of Joanna Garcia is "... not relevant to any sections", then why add it at all?  When it comes to companies such as AMC Theatres, 7-Eleven, Tesco or any other company out there, a few images to show what they look like is appropriate, but just because Commons has additional images of various otherlocations it is not necessary to add them to the article, whether in a gallery or not.  Wikipedia's Image Use Policy is pretty clear when it states "...Wikipedia is not an image repository. A gallery is not a tool to shoehorn images into an article..."  Astronaut (talk) 02:42, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

I understand now, see I used to be confused what the difference between 'right' and 'upright.' Well, I felt that if an image is uploaded, it may as well be used. Especially if it isn't conflicting with other photos (as opposed to 7-Eleven). I well understand Wikipedia is not meant to be taken as a gallery, but I'm just trying to be helpful. Also, at least I was thoughtful of adding it to a gallery not to interfere. But, I have learned yet another lesson, I may as well just move on editing in another field, not in photo contribution. Addendum edit: On another for Joanna Garcia, may as well add the photo bare without having to add a Commons link for simply one photo. SwisterTwister (talk) 06:14, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Thank you for the apology. We all get pissed off now and again, but things really do run much smoother here if you assume good faith.  Astronaut (talk) 10:53, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Cado Belle
Hello Astronaut, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Cado Belle, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The group has a notable member, Maggie Reilly.

 * I have reviewed WP:CSD. Per WP:BAND, a band is notable if "6. Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians".   Astronaut (talk) 15:57, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * A7 is not about notability. That is a common mistake. A simple assertion of importance, such as having a notable member, is more than enough to pass this criterion. Theleftorium (talk) 17:03, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
