WikiProject Good Articles Newsletter
The March 2008 issue of the WikiProject Good Articles Newsletter is ready! Dr. Cash (talk) 05:55, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

Jeremiah Wright
It's highly hypocritical of you to cite WP:AGF followed by, "That's an idiotic interpretation of policy, just an excuse." And POV pushing? Check your history. In case you hadn't noticed, I've been the one protecting the article against most of the negative POV it's receiving from various users. So for you to attack me like that shows nothing but bad faith on your part. The part of the article you can see makes no reference to Wright. I was working to make this article more acceptable to both sides. I'll look for it later, and when I find it that information needs to come out unless you can find something else to cite it with.  Grsz  ' 11 ' 18:32, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Cyber, why don't you go to the talk page of the article instead of leaving  your comments in edit summary like this:

(cur) (last) 18:27, 29 March 2008 CyberAnth (Talk | contribs) (35,085 bytes) (→Trip to Libya: Some people are really doing some major POV pushing here by removing excellent, relavent material to the article that elucidates the controversy) (undo) Die4Dixie (talk) 18:50, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
 * : Please go to talk page at Wright . We are trying to avoid ham fisted edits and build a consensus.--Die4Dixie (talk) 17:23, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Agreed. No consensus will ever be achieved through edit warring.  Please help us hash things out on the talk page.  -- Dachannien TalkContrib 17:36, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Jeremiah Wright (continued)
I noticed that your comment in the edit summary, re-adding the Steven Weber and other comments to the page, stated, "plenty notable, explain why on talk otherwise". I did explain why on talk, I started a new section while the page was fully protected to discuss criteria for determining what opinions are notable in the context of this article, and I came up with two narrowly-defined classes of opinion-givers who seemed notable enough to me to be included there. You were nowhere to be found in this discussion, and you still reverted my changes without bothering to check the talk page.

My explanation for why those articles aren't notable is in part because there's nothing connecting Steven Weber, Tim Wise, etc., to this situation aside from the fact that they, like roughly six billion other people on the planet, have an opinion. First, we don't need every opinion ever written on this controversy to be included on the page (nor is it encyclopedic to do so). Second, once we do restrict the list of opinions to be short, we must be careful not to cherry-pick opinions, since this can lead to improper synthesis of a point of view. Therefore, I indicated that the list of opinions should be restricted (a) to people who are notable in their own right and are affiliated with TUCC, and (b) the current Presidential candidates and their campaigns.

If you disagree with this viewpoint, please discuss it on the article talk page. The discussion was woefully short on other opinions, so I decided to be bold and assume that everyone's silence on the matter meant they had no disagreements. -- Dachannien TalkContrib 20:07, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Good Articles May Newsletter
The May Newsletter for WikiProject Good Articles has now been published. Dr. Cash (talk) 22:16, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Blocked for edit warring and 3RR violation.
You have been blocked from editing for in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text below.

Although your motives appear to have been good, and other editors were edit warring more seriously, you did violate the three-revert rule, and so I'm afraid I have to block you for fairness' sake. I am, however, blocking for less than 24 hours — consider this a short shock from the proverbial "electric fence". —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 08:54, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Working together on Wright
Since we've recently had some problems with edit warring on Jeremiah Wright controversy, I've made a post about working together constructively at Talk:Jeremiah Wright controversy. I'd appreciate it if you could add any thoughts you have there. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 08:02, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah?
Your edit summary at Jeremiah Wright controversy was uncalled for, namely --"Man, people have been up to malicious mischief, changing DEcreased to INcreased. Its those same people that removed a section that brings BALANCE to the article". I changed DEcreased to INcreased because it is accurate, as the reference shows, and I don't particularly appreciate being lumped in with what you call malicious mischiefmakers. I also did not remove a section that brings balance to the article. Kaiwhakahaere (talk) 08:57, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Your comment on Talk:Barack Obama
Please do not make unproductive comments about other editors on article discussion pages like you did here. If you have a problem with Happyme22's editing, I suggest you take it up with Happy on his talk page or start an WP:RFC/U. --Bobblehead (rants) 16:52, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Wikiquette alert
Hello, I would like to inform you that I have begun a Wikiquette alert discussion regarding you at Wikiquette alerts. Thanks, Happyme22 (talk) 19:31, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Good Articles Newsletter
Sorry about the delay. AWB has been having a few issues lately. Here is the august issue of the WikiProject Good Articles Newsletter! Dr. Cash (talk) 20:28, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:Mary Pride.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Mary Pride.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 16:18, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

An image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Charles_D._Provan.jpg, has been listed at Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is unclear or disputed.

GA Sweeps invitation
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I am sending you this message since you are a member of the GA WikiProject. I would like to invite you to consider helping with the GA sweeps process. Sweeps helps to ensure that the oldest GAs still meet the criteria, and improve the quality of GAs overall. Unfortunately, last month only two articles were reviewed. This is definitely a low point after our peak at the beginning of the process when 163 articles were reviewed in September 2007. After nearly two years, the running total has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A new worklist has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.

We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the GA sweeps page. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the list, and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or OhanaUnited and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

Orphaned non-free image File:DiscussDisgust.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:DiscussDisgust.jpg. 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).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:25, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Pride complete guide.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Pride complete guide.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:45, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
