There's still quite a bit of yellow territory over at Image:1984_fictious_world_map_2.png.

Your image version of "20:49, 15 November 2006" is not faithful to the demographic estimates given in Goldstein's Book, where it says that LESS THAN 2% of population is in the inner party, and that the proles are APPROXIMATELY ("perhaps") 85%. Also, that version of the image has big useless margins. Also, I quite fail to see what the advantage of transparency is in the case of a graphic of this particular nature -- where having a clean crisp black-on-white contrast aids legibility, while introducing background colors or background graphics into the image would generally reduce legibility.

Hola
Hola, I saw your name on the stressed useres thingie, and thought I could help! Yes, I know that the best things in Esperanza (and the most fun things in Wikipedia) were deleted, I feel pretty upset too. But, we must move on. Don't worry, I'm sure something fun will pop up, some day. If you feel really stressed, I suggest a Wikibreak! Do something fun in real life, if you think there is nothing fun left here. Of course, I still think it's fun here. (I get to edit this wonderful encyclopedia, and I 've got great friends here as well!) It's like a roller coaster. The fun things in Wikipedia will go up.....then someday it would have to go down.....then, someday, it will go back up again....and stay up there for a while. Hope this bit of information cheered you up a bit. Need anything? Leave a message at my talk page (it's the meow! on my sig). ¡Adios, amigo!  K yo cat  meow! 17:12, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Re: Barnstar-aclious
Thank you for the graphics barnstar you left on my talk page. I did want to be sure, though, that you were targeting the right person, as I've done relatively narrowly focused image work, much of which has been (in my humble opinion, at least :) rather unremarkable. If you do have an interest in protein images, you might want to be aware of the Molecular and Cellular Biology Wikiproject's efforts to develop a tutorial for the visualization program PyMOL, a draft of which is located here.

 * Wow, I completely forgot that the DNA clamp image was on the front page; I guess that's what you were referring to? Sorry about that, I originally put that image on commons, so I wasn't paying attention to the local version :) Opabinia regalis 01:39, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry I reverted image again, but if it's debatable whether the image even needs to be transparent in the first place, it's pretty indisputable that the image doesn't need to be converted to 32Bit RGB-Alpha format in a way that increases image filesize by almost 500%.

Untagged image
An image you uploaded, Image:BelAir MD Seal.png, was tagged with the coatofarms copyright tag. This tag was deleted because it does not actually specify the copyright status of the image. The image may need a more accurate copyright tag, or it may need to be deleted. If the image portrays a seal or emblem, it should be tagged as seal. If you have any questions, ask them at Media copyright questions. -- 13:35, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Google Firefox.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Reverted Image:United_States_Administrative_Divisions.png
I reverted your changes to the USA map at Image:United_States_Administrative_Divisions.png.

The reason I did this is because the map uses the official U.S. census regions, in order to use a neutral and factual source for labeling often disputed regional divisions. Rather than open up an edit war over 'where each state belongs in which region', which will very likely occur, I suggest we stick by what the US government uses officially.

Userpage Title
Hi there! I saw that you want your name to be iAMTHEEGGMAN, not IAMTHEEGGMAN. I can help! You can copy the code below to override the title. You can change the iAMTHEEGGMAN at the end to anything you like (that determines the title, and you can have it without the "User:"). Hope this helps! The code is between the lines

Image source problem with Image:Gordon Brown's signature.svg
Thanks for uploading Image:Gordon Brown's signature.svg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:50, 7 October 2007 (UTC).

Notice to all members of WikiProject Maryland
There are a few things going on right now in WikiProject Maryland that I thought all members should know about, especially the first one.
 * Not too long ago, Marylandstater raised the question of exactly how many members of the project are still active. For this reason, I'm asking everyone who is still active, and wants to remain in the project, to put an asterisk (*) after their username on the project's participants list.  You have until the end of November 17, 2007 to do so, sometime after that, all the names that do not have an asterisk will be removed.  This is just to clean up the ever expanding list.  If you've been gone and come back to find that you've been removed from the list, don't take it personally, just re-add yourself!  I won't feel bad at all if no one gets removed, in fact, it would be nice if all 30 members still consider themselves active.  Also, this won't affect the two subprojects, but speaking of the subprojects...
 * As of sometime next week WikiProject Baltimore City College will be no more. Myself, Golem88991, and John Carter have decided to make it into a task force of WikiProject Maryland.  If you have any objections, concerns, or comments, please post them in the talk page topic concerning this.

Now for the exiting news:
 * I'm pleased to announce the creation of the Baltimore Task Force! Those interested in contributing to Wikipedia's numerous articles related to Maryland's largest city, now have a place to collaborate.
 * I'd also like to take this time to propose a project newsletter. Any comments should be directed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Maryland.

A couple last things:
 * The portal is in desperate need of maintenance, anyone who's interested, go check it out.
 * It's probably a good idea to add the project page (and thus the project talk page) to your watchlist. That way, you can easily see when new comments are posted.

I hope you read through all that ;). Thanks to all members for your contributions to the project's articles so far, let's keep up the good work! Sincerely, -Jeff (talk) 05:38, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

"Division I-A" map
Since you're the last person to make an edit to Image:Cfdia.PNG, the map of NCAA Division "I-A" football programs, I'd like you to make the following change... the heading needs to be changed so that it reads "NCAA FOOTBALL, DIVISION I FBS" instead of "NCAA FOOTBALL, DIVISION I-A". As you probably know, the NCAA changed its official nomenclature for Division I football effective in 2006. While you're at it, you can also change the "Division I-AA" map at Image:Cfdiaa.PNG so that the header includes "DIVISION I FCS" instead of "DIVISION I-AA".

Rock music WikiProject
I'd like to invite you to join the newly-formed Rock music WikiProject. There's alot of Rock-related articles on Wikipedia that could use a little attention, and I hope this project can help organize an effort to improve them. So please, take a look and if you like what you see, help us get this project off the ground and a few Rock music pages into the front ranks of Wikipedia articles. Thanks! --Be Black Hole Sun (talk) 20:40, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Motto of the day
Hello, I notice you're using one of the motd templates, run by Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hers fold  (t/a/c) 02:48, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
Hello IAMTHEEGGMAN! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created  is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current Category:All_unreferenced_BLPs article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the unreferencedBLP tag. Here is the article:

Queen WikiProject
Hello, I am leaving you this message as part of a personal effort to revive the Queen WikiProject of which you are listed as a participant. If you are not interested in committing yourself to contributing to Queen related articles please go about removing yourself from the participants list on the project page. On the other hand if you are interested in the project and do wish to contribute, I encourage you to head over to the project's talk page to work towards outstanding tasks and share ideas on how Queen-related articles may be improved.

Thanks for reading this, and I look forward to your response. Such a legendary group deserves to be honoured with quality articles on Wikipedia and it is a great shame such a project has gone inactive.

An exciting month of wiki events!
<div style="background: #EFFDF5; padding:3em; font-family:'Helvetica Neue',sans-serif; font-size:110%;"> Hello there,

I am pleased to say that April will be a very exciting month for Wikipedia in Washington, DC. We have a lot of different events coming up, so you will have a lot to choose from.

First, a reminder that our second annual Women in the Arts Edit-a-Thon will take place on Sunday, March 30 at the National Museum of Women in the Arts.

Coming up in April, we have our first-ever Open Government WikiHack with the Sunlight Foundation on April 5–6! We are working together to use open government data to improve the Wikimedia projects, and we would love your help. All are welcome, regardless of coding or editing experience. We will also be having a happy hour the day before, with refreshments courtesy of the Sunlight Foundation.

On Friday, April 11 we are having our first edit-a-thon ever with the Library of Congress. The Africa Collection Edit-a-Thon will focus on the Library's African and Middle East Reading Room. It'll be early in the morning, but it's especially worth it if you're interested in improving Wikipedia's coverage of African topics.

The following day, we are having our second annual Wiki Loves Capitol Hill training. We will discuss policy issues relevant to Wikimedia and plan for our day of outreach to Congressional staffers that will take place during the following week.

There are other meetups in the works, so be sure to check our meetup page with the latest. I hope to see you at some of these events!

All the best, James Hare

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014
Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help!

Wikimedia DC invites revolutionaries, free thinkers, and other sundry editors to a DC WikiSalon
The WikiSalon is a special meetup usually held during the first and third full weeks of every month, from 7 PM to 9 PM. It's an informal gathering of Wikimedia enthusiasts, who come together to discuss Wikimedia wikis and collaboratively edit. There's no set agenda, and guests are welcome to recommend articles for the group to edit or edit on their own.

If you're coming by Metro, the closest station is Dupont Circle (on the Red Line). If you're driving, a lot of parking opens up downtown after 6:30 PM, so finding a parking space (even a free one) should be easy. Once you've found the building, go to Cove on the second floor. We will be in the conference room. When: Wednesday, September 17, 2014 at 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Where: The Cove, Dupont Circle, 1730 Connecticut Avenue NW, 2nd floor, 20009, DC
