User talk:Forestine1

Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Forestine1! Thank you for your contributions. I am Gobonobo and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Questions or type at the bottom of this page. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! gobonobo + c 04:21, 10 March 2015 (UTC) Thanks! Forestine1 (talk) 18:25, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Shawna Dempsey and Lorri Millan
Just a couple of quick notes for you about your (very welcome) improvements to Shawna Dempsey and Lorri Millan: Hope that helps a bit. Bearcat (talk) 14:26, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) Please don't add categories to the draft version that you're keeping in your own sandbox space at User:Forestine1/sandbox; userspace drafts are not allowed to be categorized alongside finished articles in mainspace.
 * 2) Under our WP:DUPCAT rules, because they're already in they don't also get doubled up into  alongside that — notice that the only page sitting directly in  is a List of Canadian artists, with all of the individual artists instead being filtered down into subcategories for the specific type of art they create and/or what more specific part (province, some but not all major cities, etc.) of Canada they're from. And for the same reason, they also don't go directly into  either.
 * 3) You're relying a little too heavily on their own work for sourcing about their own work, which falls under our rules about primary sourcing. What you need to add to satisfy our reliable sourcing rules is media coverage (newspaper or magazine articles, radio or television content, books, etc.) written by other people about them.

Replaceable fair use File:Lnpsrangers.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Lnpsrangers.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 08:57, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Diane Whitehouse, from its old location at User:Forestine1/Diane Whitehouse. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae  /tlk  21:05, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in study
Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, I am working with Wikimedia’s Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Thank you Ewitch51 (talk) 19:00, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
