Knowledge Corridor
I saw the that you added a whole section on the knowledge corridor to the Smith College article. While I think that this may deserve discussion, it was far out of proportion. Additionally, and more problematically, you just cut and paste text from the knowledge corridor article. I think a sentence or two in each article will be absolutely sufficient since the knowledge corridor is only a tiny part of what these institutions do. Let me know if you have any questions! —mako (talk•contribs) 01:02, 18 April 2007 (UTC)


 * I've actually gone ahead and removed from most of the other places I could find cut and pasted text as well. If you find yourself cutting and pasting something on the order of a paragraph (or more!) into many articles, there's a good chance that you're doing something wrong. I'm happy to discuss the details. Leave a message on my talk page. —mako (talk•contribs) 01:19, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Virgin Group = Conglomerate?
This is more for my own understanding than me really disagreeing with you, as I have no background in business, but I thought in order for a company to be considered a conglomerate it has to own all the businesses it has under its name. If so, the Virgin Group is not a conglomerate. Thanks. NcSchu( Talk ) 14:10, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Cookie? What cookie? Oh...that cookie, I didn't give that to you.  Apparently Pedia-I did. Thanks. NcSchu( Talk ) 01:56, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:Shade_tent_design.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Shade_tent_design.gif. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media 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 taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images 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 our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Melesse (talk) 23:25, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
