IMatrix
I just noticed your new article on IMatrix Corporation. First of all, "corporation" is misspelled. You can fix that by using the page move function. Secondly, you need to tell the reader why this corporation is important. See WP:CORP for guidelines on the inclusion of corporations. Erik the Rude 19:41, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

You can either redirect your user page to your talk page, or you can click "My Preferences" and follow the instructions. I've never done that myself, so if you need help, try the Help desk. Erik the Rude 21:39, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Customizing your signature
I came across your talk page via IMatrix, and I noticed your comments about customizing the ~. This page will help you figure it out. In my opinion, it takes a lot of trial and error to get it just right. If you have any more questions, feel free to leave me a message. Have a great day and happy editing! Amalas  =^_^=  17:04, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Here's a pretty simple signature that might work for you. It has both a link to your user page and a link to your talk page.  Go to "my preferences" link at the top right of the screen.  In the "nickname" field, copy this into the text box exactly:  00 tux | talk .  This should make your signature look something like this:  00 tux | talk. (Currently the talk link isn't linked because self-referencing links are bold instead of a link).  Make sure there is a check in the "raw signature" check box.  Click on "save" and you should be ready to go.  I hope that helps.   Amalas   =^_^=  13:50, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

open source wifi drivers
I know what OpenHAL is, I just didn't think it was enough of a change from regular MadWifi to warrant it's own entry in the table, perhaps just a note at the bottom of the table.

Regarding your errors it looks like you'll have to fiddle with the makefile to get OpenHAL compiling properly on Linux. I'm not sure about the regdomain error with OpenBSD, the ath man page does not mention the error or anything regarding specifying a regdomain. You may want to have a look at the source code and possibly write a patch.

I am a Gentoo and OpenBSD user by the way. I'm pretty sure I've seen your username on the gentoo forums asking about OpenHAL. dystopianray 23:55, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Open source Wi-Fi drivers
I'm glad you like the changes. The reason I removed OpenHAL was because it is basically just the MadWifi driver with a replacement HAL. I don't think it actually alters the capabilities of the driver at all and I guess it could be added as a note under the table. The Realtek driver didn't actually have any information apart from the name, so it's entry would have been mostly blank anyway. dystopianray 02:22, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

TiVo and open source software
I reverted your TiVo edit for a few reasons. Firstly, it was poorly written from a grammatical stance. Secondly, the way it was worded made it read as being very POV. Thirdly, I don't feel that it's worthy of being included. While I realize that TiVo's policies are of concern to open source enthusiasts, I just don't think it's necessary to have that in the article. However, that's not my call to make, so perhaps if you re-wrote the section to make it more gramatically sound and asked if it was appropriate on the talk page, it could be added to the article, assuming others agree. - seinman 04:51, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Acer Aspire 5020
A tag has been placed on Acer Aspire 5020, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. If you plan to add more material to the article, I advise you to do so immediately. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources which verify their content. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material, please affix the template  to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Turlo Lomon 11:15, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

==Speedy deletion of Image:Osi-certified.jpg== A tag has been placed on Image:Osi-certified.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I5 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image which is not under a free license or in the public domain and it has not been used in any article for more than seven days.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on  explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Isafer.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Isafer.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 22:52, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:Sicilia sea 001.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Sicilia sea 001.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Polly (Parrot) 01:09, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Walter Görlitz. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to the page Talk:Redmine, because they seemed to be inappropriate for an encyclopedia.

COI
I came from Replicant page and saw your COI-declaration, I wander where you draw the line. I haven't seen any rules, only for "paid" and "organizations". I wouldn't say I'm a "free software developer" (or open source). Would you say sending in a bug report binds you in some way; documentation fixes/translations? Or minor code changes? I wouldn't want to choose between helping free/open software and WP.. I try to be neutral, but I could say I'm a fan of some software.. comp.arch (talk) 17:39, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
