Orphaned non-free image (Image:Julia Child Time Cover.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Julia Child Time Cover.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).

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. BetacommandBot 11:28, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Napoleon Disentimed British.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Napoleon Disentimed British.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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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.BetacommandBot 04:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Ellery Queen
Thanks for your edit to "The Lamp of God". I agree that "locked room mystery" is not the best way to characterize the "nationality" mysteries, although The Chinese Orange Mystery would definitely qualify as one. I also can't seriously suggest "impossible crimes," which is something of a synonym, although The American Gun Mystery seems to qualify there. Would you agree with "puzzle mysteries" as a characterization? Accounting4Taste 21:00, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Chinese Orange is 100% locked room -- without spoiing this for anyone who happens to read it here, the corpse (and its attendant Impi spears) is crucial to the method by which the door is locked, as I think you will now recall. I think a key factor for many of the nationality mysteries is a relative sense of impossibility that is hard to describe.  French Powder is a kind of locked room in that the store is locked and guarded.  American Gun is "impossible crime" because of the disappearance of the gun, and similarly Roman Hat depends on the disappearance of the hat, Spanish Cape depends on the disappearance of the victim's clothes.  Dutch Shoe, Greek Coffin, Siamese Twin and Egyptian Cross are not "impossible" in any sense, though -- merely very difficult puzzles.   Siamese Twin is only locked room in the sense that no one can get off the mountain.
 * I like your suggestion of "classic puzzles", but I want also to suggest the impossibility factor.
 * The reason I'm bothering you about getting this right is that (a) you have been a major contributor to the EQ article, and obviously have expertise and (b) the same description needs to recur in the works subsequent to the nationalities series in the same section, so I'd like to get this precisely right by collaborating with someone who knows what's what. Thanks for giving this topic your consideration. Accounting4Taste 22:52, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Wow. You've gone more deeply into this than I have, and I'm not famliiar with the work you're quoting.  But the one thing I did glean from what you had to say is the word "intricate", which I seized upon as useful -- perhaps "intricate formal puzzles" or "intricate classic puzzles"?  I appreciate your input.  Accounting4Taste 16:30, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

From the page: "I hereby release all rights to it. Anyone can use it for any purpose as long as they credit me as being the photographer."

The two statements are contradictory. When you release all rights to your work, you waive the right to impose conditions upon use. This means that it is not necessary to credit you as the photographer. I wholeheartedy encourage you to release your work into the public domain, but the correct license for you seems to be cc-attribution. –MT 04:14, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Craig Rice Time Cover.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Craig Rice Time Cover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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. —Angr 16:52, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Unsourced user
Hello here, Hayford, I've been blocked for 24 hours from CZ for changing my name. Larry said OK but Matt intervened. So it goes.

Anyway, it's our Chinese night, so I must down my Super Bock & be off! Rothorpe 19:23, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

- OK, here goes. CZ insists on real names. Rothorpe is not one. So I foolishly signed up as Robert: the only person who calls me that is my mother. (And an old friend from school days who is a genius unpublished poet, but that's for another time.) My friend Ag (Anthony Gwynne Jones) said he had the same problem with 'Anthony' when I mentioned that Yahoo insisted on saying 'Hello Robert'. (And if your email was to Hotmail, thanks: it just stopped for no reason a couple of weeks ago: now I'm rothorpe 39 at yahoo dot com.) Last night it occurred to me that I could use 'move' to become Ro. I did, no problem. But then:


 * Hi Robert, as a user page, this won't work. "Ro Thorpe" isn't actually recognized in the system as a user page. So if someone wants to e-mail you via the system, they'd have to know to click on the tiny User:Robert Thorpe link at the top of the page. We could create a new User:Ro Thorpe account for you, and block User:Robert Thorpe... --Larry Sanger 10:26, 29 October 2007 (CDT)

I replied: I'd be grateful if it could be changed as far as possible. I was misled into unnecessary formality in my application. Only my mother calls me Robert.

Since when, if I try typing on CZ:

<Your user name or IP address has been blocked.

The block was made by D. Matt Innis. The reason given is moved to new user name Ro Thorpe.

Start of block: 18:05, 29 October 2007 Expiry of block: infinite Intended blockee: Robert Thorpe You can contact D. Matt Innis or another administrator to discuss the block. You cannot use the 'email this user' feature unless a valid email address is specified in your account preferences and you have not been blocked from using it. Your current IP address is 85.240.98.117, and the block ID is #1193. Please include either or both of these in any queries.

Of course 'any queries' are blocked & the same message appears.

But the prawn curry & chicken chow mien were excellent. The boss gave us yet another free lighter with our change; Eva already has a drawerful. Had a look for the comet in Perseus on the way home (thanks to WP for the news): 2nd magnitude and likely to become the size of the moon, it seems to be one of the Deltas - but which? Rothorpe 22:20, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Starious vuff
OK, thanks for Heinlein perspective.

As expected, Eva is Amazon-averse. Get your mother to send you lots of his books, she says. My mother is a very spry 86-year-old. Had to give up tennis a while back, but still manages a few holes of golf. (I have inherited my father's arthritis & need a stick to go round the garden. So it goes.)

I see, intermittent TV. I just watch the news. No sport (except for a bit of snooker). Of course American sport is all pauses for advertising. That's why 'soccer' never really caught on (as exemplified in a certain Simpsons episode).

Ceres is one of those words that no-one says, might as well be Kelloggs. It's called idiolect, one's own personal pron, which comes from the written word. So for me Andorra is Dorothy, not Pandora. Rothorpe 22:47, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
 * That almond pressed duck made me feel hungry even though I’d come back from the Chinese not long before.


 * Still exiled from CZ. I’ve written a note to the cops.


 * I never got your email, but that’s probably because they sent it via Hotmail. Yahoo, which seems to be pitched at ‘cool’ nine-year-olds, is working, however: rothorpe39@yahoo.com - Rothorpe 13:47, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
