nhl template
Hi, and thanks for spreading the template! Just wanted to let you know that it isn't necessary to add the AHL team as a former team, that field is more about former pro teams, if you get where I'm going. In any case, keep up the great work. The strokes 03:59, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Junior B Teams
Hello, a user has decided that he does not want us placing hockey stubs on Wikipedia to expand later into teams. In particular he doesn't like Junior teams... I was wondering if you could please voice your opinion. Articles for deletion/Thunder Bay Northern Hawks DMighton 01:13, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Flyers Current Squad
I switched it back. I placed a comment on the Project Hockey talk page last night so we will see what comes of it. --Sparkhurst 13:33, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It is confusing. Which of the many inadequate Flyers beat writers can you trust? To be fair, the Flyers website hasn't bothered adding any free agent signings to their roster list since Marty Murray. The current squad in the Flyers article lists 17 forwards, two of which are known to have two-way contracts (Eager and Potulny). Since Forsberg is out until January, that makes it 14 to start the season. Then there is Primeau; who really knows whether he is able to return or not. If he ends up retiring, that is 13. I don't know, confirmation from the Flyers website would be nice. --Sparkhurst 00:15, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

infoboxes for former players
I added an infobox to former players Jeff Hackett and Pelle Lindbergh. I did so under the assumption that these infoboxes are for past, present, and future players. I was going to do this for more players from the past but I would like some feedback before doing so. --Sparkhurst 06:30, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Briememory! There will be a Wikipedia Meetup in Philadelphia on 4 November.

Thanks for uploading Image:ÉricDesjardins.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.

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 01:13, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Images
Fair-use images should only be used if a freely-licensed image could not "reasonably be created". This is certainly not the case for currently-active hockey players; any one of the thousands of people at a game could take a snapshot and release it under the GFDL or CC-BY licenses. &mdash; Chowbok  ☠  03:49, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I disagree that they do not violate the fair-use criteria, for the reason stated above. Anyway, I'm not an admin, so I can't delete anything. I'm just flagging what I think should be deleted, and the admins make the final decision. &mdash; Chowbok  ☠  16:45, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Image:NikoDimitrakos.jpg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:NikoDimitrakos.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:NikoDimitrakos.jpg fits the criteria for speedy deletion for the following reason: A free image of this active player could easily be obtained in place of this one. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:NikoDimitrakos.jpg, please affix the template  to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Image:NikoDimitrakos.jpg itself.

Fair use rationale for Image:BradTapper.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:BradTapper.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. Videmus Omnia Talk  06:30, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
