User talk:Christopherwoods

Just realised that I should've put all the stuff I typed on to my user page, instead of my user talk page.

Wikinewbian mistake. ;)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Sweetjesuslogo-recreated-smaller.png)
 Thanks for uploading Image:Sweetjesuslogo-recreated-smaller.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. &mdash; neuro  (talk)  17:19, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Logos are not appropriate for band infoboxes. Thanks, &mdash; neuro  (talk)  17:20, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Sweet Jesus
Good work on the Sweet Jesus logo my friend. Hopefully we'll get it back under a fair-use policy somehow – I'm not too sure what constitutes a fair rationale though. Apologies for my "far-worse version" (as you put it!) – I've not got a scanner, and the photo I took of it was, well, mobile phone quality. If you look at the image history though, you'll see that it did get better! No offense taken though ;) Cycle~ (talk) 00:22, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Logos are not permitted in band infoboxes - only free images of the band, unless they have formally broken up, in which case a fair use image is also permitted, but discouraged. Just because something has been wrong for a long time, it doesn't mean it should stay that way when somebody fixes (or in this case removes) what is wrong. &mdash; neuro  (talk)  02:58, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * That's not really what I meant. The quality of the image is irrelevant – what I meant was that the use of a logo would undoubtedly improve the article – if it was allowed to be used somewhere.  Out of curiousity, can you link to a page that states where logos may not be used in band infoboxes?  Cycle~ (talk) 03:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * If you can ask them for an image to use, please do so, and forward proof of permission to OTRS. That would be the best way to proceed. I believed that the guideline was at WP:IBT, but it appears to be located elsewhere. I have located an image that can be used under fair use, and will add it to the article shortly. If, then, you receive permission to use that or any other image of the band under a free license, contact OTRS. &mdash; neuro  (talk)  06:15, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Image added. &mdash; neuro  (talk)  06:23, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles and content that have been nominated for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable, and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles and content to quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated!

Hi. When you recently edited The Scarlet Tulip EP, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page WWF (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.

Hand-coding
Hey all :).

I'm dropping you a note because you've been involved in dealing with feedback from the Article Feedback Tool. To get a better handle on the overall quality of comments now that the tool has become a more established part of the reader experience, we're undertaking a round of hand coding - basically, taking a sample of feedback and marking each piece as inappropriate, helpful, so on - and would like anyone interested in improving the tool to participate :).

You can code as many or as few pieces of feedback as you want: this page should explain how to use the system, and there is a demo here. Once you're comfortable with the task, just drop me an email at and I'll set you up with an account :).

If you'd like to chat with us about the research, or want live tutoring on the software, there will be an office hours session on Monday 17 December at 23:00 UTC in. Hope to see some of you there! Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 23:07, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Article Feedback deployment
Hey Christopherwoods; I'm dropping you this note because you've used the article feedback tool in the last month or so.

SCISYS page
Hi Chris - I notice that you have saved the SCISYS page and show and interest in making it more factual. I work for SCISYS and would be happy to do the same - are you planning any action on this or should I just go ahead? I take the moderators point, but many of our competitors have similar pages so we feel a bit picked on! Thanks --lurchksm (talk) 10:41, 03 February 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I think contributions would have to be obviously NPOV and well backed with refs. I think there's certainly grounds for the article's inclusion given the company's increasing presence in broadcast sector and how many stations already use the software. There was a lot of good material in the old article, it just read like a badly written press release ;-) Chris W. (talk) 12:08, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:28, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
