Thanks for the kind words! The stories of Indian captives who subsequently refused to be returned to "civilization" are great stories, but its hard to find good info on them.

Happy editing... -- Mwanner 00:30, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

DPN
Thanks very much for the heads up. I apparently did not have that article on my watchlist (must have forgotten to add it) so I appreciate the notification. Of course, I do not consider it "my" article but I will be glad to look at it and see if I think I can help it any. Thank you muchly for adding to it. Qaz ( talk ) 21:30, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Hi Jaqui
I noticed you voted in the recent Mariah Carey single articles on AFD.

You said that for O Holy Night, you'd change your vote if the article was expanded. If I do expand it, would you please change your vote?

Also for Joy to the World (Mariah Carey song), you voted Merge because User:Barno had indicated that the song did not follow WP:Music as it had not made the charts. However, that is not true. The single did chart in Australia and it charted in USA on the dance chart. The song is also not exactly the traditional Xmas song, but a medley of it and another song by 3 Dog Night. The song also has two music videos. There are more details in the song that would make this cluttered if combined, but I was wondering if you'd considering changing your vote with these details, or if you had any other concerns.

Also for Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (Mariah Carey song), you noted that you would have voted keep, but the single had not been released. Well, if I had known this would have been placed on AFD, I wouldnt have created an article for it until it got released. But, if the article gets merged or deleted, it would be difficult to create the article later on. With that in mind, I promise you if that if you change your vote to be keep, I will expand the article to a decent size. Is that fair enough? OmegaWikipedia 15:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Part 2
Hi, Jaqui, I've expanded Joy to the World (Mariah Carey song). Is this good? Or do you feel there are some parts that need more expansion? Let me know. Thank you.

Thanks!
Thanks! -- BD2412 talk 00:06, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Abortion
You're welcome, and I would like to thank you for bringing up disability rights; which is a hidden and troubling aspect to abortion that is rarely discussed and usually overlooked. It is an outstanding example of what makes Wikipedia great... so upon reflection I will give you a Wikithanks and copy this to your talk page for others to see. - RoyBoy 800 03:43, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Re:Jim Hanks
No I'm not going to dispute it, I just tagged it because it was poorly done, and had information that seemed false to me. I just didn't check if it was false or not, which I should of done before I tagged it. Sorry if you've had any problems because of it. Private Butcher 05:09, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

Broadcasting notability
I've come up with a proposal for the criteria for including TV and radio stations. Let me know what you think. Thanks -- Kjkolb 13:25, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I made exceptions in the proposal for college radio stations (at the bottom). I knew those would be popular, so under the criteria the Wooster stations would be kept. Also, radio stations notable for some reason regardless of what class they are in can also be exceptions (also at the bottom). A notorious pirate radio station would be okay with me, but I didn't include anything about them yet. We can make the exceptions more explicit if necessary. I have already changed them a little. I went by class because, except for college stations (almost always class D), it is a pretty good indication of notability. The lower classes of radio stations are typically low power stations with no original content, local traffic information with no music, or only enough power to cover a small neighborhood. Some are only 10 to 100 watts, compared to several hundred or thousands for major stations. You can get some indication of all this if you search for stations in your state at the FCC site (external links section). There's separate searches for AM, FM and TV. I'm going offline in a minute and I'll get back to about any more comments or questions in a day or two. Thanks for your help. -- Kjkolb 14:40, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

post-archive AfD comments
Hi! Just thought I'd leave a note to let you know that I removed your comment from Articles for deletion/Jessamyn West (librarian) because it had already been closed and archived by the time you posted. I didn't want you to be surprised about it having disappeared. (In any case, the result was "keep"!) &mdash; mendel &#9742; 01:54, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

SNL Characters
Hello, I'm the one that's been extensively updating SNL character articles. I notice that you're doing the same, and I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the problem that's come up with all the stubs that have come from the process. Gay Hitler and Zagat's have been nominated for deletion, and I think we should create categories which can encompass all the characters. Two categories I have in mind are "Characters Appearing on Weekend Update" and "Short-Lived Recurring Characters" (appearing four or fewer times).

My main question is, do you know how to logistically make this happen? I don't know the technical aspects of it, particularly how to link characters to those pages when they're created. Only names with their own pages can be linked like this right? If it was part of a larger article, that kind of link would go nowhere, right? Leadpipevigilante 00:19, 2 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm going to stick this on both our talk pages, just in case. As far as I know, there are two ways to do this. One way is to create redirects from the character name to the page where their info resides. So for instance, Gay Hitler would redirect, presumably, to Characters appearing on Weekend Update (note the lowercase a due to the naming conventions).
 * The other thing we can do is use piped links with anchors on the list page to the correct part of the page you are speaking of creating (that I would help with, of course).
 * If you want, I can be in charge of the technical aspects of linking, etc, if you want to be the one to merge/compile the characters on their own page. Jacqui  ★ 00:40, 2 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Sounds good. I like the idea of redirects best.  I'll start creating the category pages.  I'm in the middle of creating the character lists according to Cast Member, but I'm starting to think that the cast members with pages of their own can just have a list included in their existing article. Leadpipevigilante 06:02, 2 November 2005 (UTC)


 * That's fine with me, if the idea sticks with the people maintaining the pages for the cast members. (We may want to ask on article talk pages first, explaining what's going on.) Jacqui  ★ 14:34, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Discovery Channel
"By the way, regarding the Censored section, I checked who contributed that and also what other things they had contrubuted, and they had mostly spammed other entries with the same paragraph (or similar). I'm going to take that one out now. If anyone comes by later who disagrees with the three of us so far, revert me and we'll talk more here. (Also, if we want to mention it in passing at some later point, we have the edit history to get it back) Jacqui ★" Did you write this?

and this:

"I'm not sure if I'm the Jacqui you're talking about, or if you mean someone else, but I've never seen most of those links in my life. In any case, the facts remain at Conspiracy of Silence, etc. THis is a page about the Discovery Channel, itself. Please respect that. There are see also links on this page, and that is one of them. Thanks. Jacqui ★"

I don't understand why you would call my contributions SPAM in one post, then deny reading the contributions in the next? Yes, you are the Jacqui to which my comments are directed, as well as the one that removed my post about censorship in the USA. This page is a living history of a company. The fact that a show that was listed in several guides, then pulled from the line-up under political pressure, belongs in this page. The actual show and its contents are less important than the fact it was censored. I don't think people will gather the Discovery Channel has been censored from your "see also" link. It is important for people to know when the Media has been compromised.


 * Oh. Now I get it. Yes. I am sorry that I used the verb "spammed"; it's imprecise, rude and not quite what I meant anyway. However, from your contributions when I checked it was apparent to me that the only contributions you'd made to Wikipedia were ones related to this topic. I hadn't seen half of the links you listed because at the time I had checked your contributions, they didn't exist (or at least, you hadn't edited them yet). Most of the others, I hadn't ever clicked on, because you made it clear from your edit history what you put in.


 * The article about the Discovery Channel is not the living history of the company, it's about the living history of the channel. Those are two different things. If you'd like to click on the link on the Discovery Channel page that indicates what company owns it, you are free to edit that article. I stand by my feelings regarding the see-also in the Discovery Channel article enough. I also think you will find that when you do edit the article about the company, they probably won't let you put in quite that much about Conspiracy of Silence there either, as there are limits to page sizes in Wikipedia. That's why Conspiracy of Silence should have its own pgae -- so it can say on that page what would not fit on the other pages.


 * Happy editing! Jacqui  ★ 01:03, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

Triple metre
The article on triple metre now exists. The fans of triple metre on the AfD page don't seem to be particularly motivated to give any explanation of why it might be considered unusual in thir chosen genre and timescale, so that article is still (for me) a problem, but at least a properly informative article should grow from the stub. - Just zis Guy, you know? 10:10, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Good on you for doing that. I'll go look at it shortly. If it gets large and comprehensive enough, we may not need lists at all. Jacqui  ★ 14:31, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Transwiki
You omitted several important parts of the transwiki process: Uncle G 10:19, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
 * For GFDL compliance, the edit summary or talk page must contain a back-link to the original article. (My 'bot does both.)
 * For GFDL compliance, a list of author information must accompany the article. This is generally placed on the talk page.
 * A record should be added to the inbound transwiki log of the destination project. (I cross-linked all of the inbound and outbound logs, so it is relatively simple to find the relevant inbound log when one is performing a manual transwiki.)
 * Gotcha. I misunderstood the instuctions here on the Wikipedia namespace, then. I had a feeling that what I had done was just too easy.... Jacqui  ★ 14:31, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

Thanksgiving dinner
In the interest of keeping Wikipedia junque-free, I would encourage you to reconsider your keep vote on this article. The topic has vastly superior coverage in the Thanksgiving article, and the most suitable disposal of this title is a delete or a redirect. (No, I haven't tried before, and I hope I am providing you with fresh information:) ) Denni &#9775; 05:42, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Well, I'll give you this much: I will clarify my vote to indicate that a redirect to Thanksgiving dinner would not upset me and that I'd go with that if it would help to build consensus, though I still think that having a separate, improved article on the subject (possibly with material merged from other places) won't harm anything. Note that I didn't say, "Keep it, it's perfect as it is." No, it's certainly not. But I tend to be somewhat of an eventualist (but only to a point). Jacqui  ★ 05:45, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

If you have a second
Could you take a look at the links added by anon IP 69.201.181.152 to Knot theory, Topology, and Knot? User added links to Rosa Parks and some other articles where the referenced papers from the external link had only an ancillary mention of the topics. THose other three might be on topic though... I don't think so, but before I remove the links, I thought I'd get an outside opinion from a couple of people (you and User:A Man In Black). If you have a chance at some point, could you take a look and let me know what you think? Thanks!--Isotope23 16:48, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the opinion! I'll finish up the job and post something on the anon IP talk page to let them know why I did it.  Hopefully they will see it.  Heh, don't be so surprised... you always put together a well thought out argument on AfD, so I figured you'd have a valid opinion on this.--Isotope23 18:25, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Re: Songs in triple meter
Thanks for the support on the afd page for Songs in triple meter. I created that page and added all but about 3 of the songs and you may know now that it has now been deleted even though the vote was something like 11 to 8 with half or more of the 11 knowing little or nothing about time signatures. I didn't know it was a raw numbers kind of affair. Live and learn I guess. I asked for the page to be undeleted and any suggestions you have or support you could show in this regard would be welcome. Thanks. Hraefen 02:41, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Covers
Jacqui, your post re: the "Hurt" covers got me thinking, so I wanted to ask you, are there any wikipedia guidelines for what constitutes a cover? To me, listing Bowie and Amos as performing as "covers" was questionable, and—I beg your pardon—my preference is to remove questionable claims from articles, instead of leaving them for the user to evaluate himself or herself. I've looked in cover version and list of notable cover versions, and haven't found any opinions to back up either of our defintions. Any pointers you could give me would be appreciated. Cheers! -- Rynne 04:56, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Reply listed on Rynne's talk page, copied here
my preference is to remove questionable claims from articles, instead of leaving them for the user to evaluate himself or herself. You're absolutely right. My apologies.

Regarding Wikipedia policy on what constitutes a cover -- I couldn't find any information, myself. But for me, if a singer or band is performing a song by another group that wouldn't be considered a "derivative work" by copyright law, then it's a cover. The Tori use of the song is kind of a special case. Is it derivative if it's being used as a bridge/opener? I don't know. I guess maybe the word I would use for that instance is a "partial cover." But you're right, there needs to be more clarification. Perhaps WikiProject Music could help us? Jacqui ★ 06:11, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Perhaps WikiProject Music could help us?


 * Ah, great suggestion. I've put a new question at Wikipedia Talk:WikiProject Songs.  Thanks! -- Rynne 15:02, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Hi Jacqi.. thanks for noticing me. I live in Chicago (and have for 12 years now), but I was born and raised (to the age of 21) in South Euclid. I'm glad you corrected my miscue (I didn't know that Notre Dame had gone Coed). I've been editing and adding on to stuff in Wikipedia for a while, I've just been slow in figuring out everything (I'm up to my eyeballs in school... Wikipedia is kind of a hobby/outlet for my head full of stuff...); inasmuch, I just (like yesterday) got around to actually signing up for an account. Anyhow, I'll watch for ya on here.

Articles for deletion/India Today's top 10 colleges of India
Hi! This is not systematic bias. I am an Indian. I've nominated US lists for deletion as well. Articles for deletion/Newsweek’s List of Top High Schools (2003), Articles for deletion/Newsweek's List of the 1,000 Top U.S. Schools and Articles for deletion/Newsweek's List of the 1,000 Top U.S. Schools (2005). Could you please do a rethink on your vote. utcursch | talk 05:48, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I wasn't clear. I wasn't saying the nomination was an example of systemic bias. Of course not! What I was saying was that, since we have articles on such US lists, it's only fair that we have Indian ones too. And I think we should have such lists, in general. So no, I won't be changing my vote. Sorry for the confusion. Jacqui  ★ 06:31, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

Sexual slang
I believe that The Literate Engineer would like to enlist your support for implementing Freakofnurture's suggestion from Articles for deletion/List of sexual slang/2005-10-18. Uncle G 10:27, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Hmmm. I would like to help, but I will away from an Internet connection shortly and wn't be back to it for another 48 or so hours. If The Literate Engineer wanted to divvy up tasks, s/he could leave me some tasks to do here and I would complete them upon returning. Though, I am thinking that the help might have included decisions regarding what goes and what stays. In that case, I don't know how helpful I am going to be two days from now, unfortunately.

List of banned books
I noticed you put an NPOV tag on this article. I was wondering if you'd take a look at what I was doing with it (basically trying to get sourced descriptions for each entry) and see if this would address your concerns. So, er, yeah! Thanks. --Cherry blossom tree 15:37, 11 November 2005 (UTC)
 * I think your descriptions are much more balanced than the ones that were there before. You seem careful in your word choice, and that's good. The ones that no one can find a citation for the reason why they were banned should go, then, once the process is all over. I was thinking that there would be far more unverifiable ones than there seem to be, so that's good. The list will basically stay intact. Keep up the good work; I'm impressed. (And as a dangling carrot, I offer you an especially shiny barnstar if you get all the way to the end of the list. :) Jacqui  ★ 16:13, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

In an effort to have this vote go as swimmingly as Articles for deletion/List of music videos by name, I'm pointing it out to all the people who voted on the previous one, as it's basically the same information, differently arranged. Had I known it existed at the time, I would have included it in the AfD. Too late now. Thanks. -R. fiend 01:55, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Your sig
Hi, Your sig is not rendering correctly, the html is being converted to entities. See here for an example, and here for a diff. &mdash; Graibeard 04:54, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm not sure what's causing it but somehow your tags are being converted to entities. I was able to fix it in the diff I linked to, but other than that I can't really help; although if your cutting and pasting it from a sample, is the cut 'n paste doing the conversion?

Hi Jacqui, I noticed that you had some problems with the display of you signature, recently. As you've probably heard, this happened when the developers disabled HTML Tidy. It is back up again, but the devs have instituted changes to the MediaWiki software that can affect how your signature displays. It looks like your problem has resolved, but you may wish to look at WP:SIGHELP for more information. Very kind regards encephalon  01:40, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Notable albums
Thanks for fixing up the markup in the lists that I created (notable albums). It will make it easier to parse though the list and remove albums that have already been covered. The list were generated from an outside source, so the text was probably a little garbled. I do wonder though why redirects are not created instead? A similar thing happened in a list of films I created. Someone could easily copy and paste something in and would come upon a redlink rather than finding what actually existed. Thanks! --Reflex Reaction (talk)&bull; 17:15, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

 * (hides) Of all the times to get a barnstar for vandalism-fighting.... (grins) Jacqui ★ 21:09, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

The assault on the List of sexual slang
Two users in particular The Literate Engineer & Voice of All(MTG) have apparently made it their duty to get rid of the list and they have been using underhanded tactics in an attempt to do so in any way they can.

But word is getting out, and supporters of the list are starting to rally against them and protect the list (via rerverting vandalism, countering their tactics, etc.).

The results of the 18 October AfD:

 * Keep & clean = 3
 * Keep, no clean = 11
 * Delete = 2

The anonymous clean-up notice
The following anonymous clean-up notice was posted to the list on November 1st:

23:44, 1 November 2005 68.17.227.41

The notice was placed without group consensus, and there was no edit comment. Pretty sneaky.

This was the user's only edit. Nothing before or after. A sock-puppet.

The results of the 10 November Afd

 * Keep & clean up =3 votes
 * Keep, with no mention of clean up =7 votes
 * Delete = 4 votes (including the nomination)

That's 10 votes to keep, out of which 3 voted to clean up. Seven out of ten clearly voiced their desire to retain the list without deleting its entries.

Dishonest report of Afd results
Voice of All(MTG) reported the results as " ", and he and The Literate Engineer used that as the basis to erase the content of the list, which they did in successive edits.

Non-consensual list move
During the 10 November AfD discussion, Voice of All(MTG) moved the list to the new article name sexual slang, citing the introduction at the top of the list as the basis for the move ("it is more than a list"). Several users then used the article title as an argument against including any list entries.

When an article is moved, the change history is moved with it, and a redirect is placed under the original article's title. If the redirect is edited, then the article cannot be moved back. That is exactly what has happened to the list. See Merging and moving pages for more information.

The current situation
The change history of the list is currently stranded as the change history of Sexual slang.

The content of the list itself has been restored to List of sexual slang, where it was originally. This preserves the spirit of the results of the two AfD discussions mentioned above.

To summarize:

 * 1) On Oct 18 the list was nominated for AfD (article for deletion), but this attempt to delete failed, and the vote was overwhelmingly to Keep.
 * 2) An anonymous sock-puppet placed a clean-up notice on the list. It has been used as a justification to delete entries.
 * 3) On Nov 10, The Literate Engineer made an AfD attempt against the list and it failed too.
 * 4) Then Voice of All(MTG) underhandedly moved the list to the non-list name sexual slang, while the AfD was still underway.
 * 5) Voice of All(MTG)reported false results for the 10 November AfD vote, and he and The Literate Engineer edited out the entire list.
 * 6) I posted a rebuttal to the above antics on the talk page for sexual slang, and reverted the sexual slang article to the November 15 version in the article's change history (the complete list). My username ("Bend over") was banned as inappropriate or offensive.
 * 7) Some editors stated that an article is not the place for a list, and used that as a justification to keep list entries.
 * 8) So I replaced the redirect at List of sexual slang with the actual content of the entire list. Unfortunately, the change history for the list is still part of the change history for the article sexual slang.
 * 9) An attempt is being made to protect the list against vandalism at its original location: List of sexual slang.

Remember, the three reversion limit does not apply when reverting vandalism. Only if enough concerned users participate will this be successful.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter. Red Rover 21:59, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

New Wikibook on Castle of the Winds
Since I noticed you were one of the biggest contributors to Castle of the Winds, I thought you should know that I’ve started Castle of the Winds, with the intent of moving the player-oriented information over. Because it’s a Wikibook, it can contain a lot of things that the Wikipedia article wouldn’t have, such as object, monster and spell tables. So even with the content of the article, the book still needs your help.

The biggest hurdle in moving from Wikipedia to Wikibooks is the sub-pages, but you seem to understand sub-pages already; apart from that, the two wikis are similar to edit.

I look forward to seeing your contributions. In addition to replying here, you can also post to Wikibooks:Talk:Castle of the Winds or my talk page. Seahen 21:41, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

Hello from Ohio
I will apologize in advance if I am breaking Wiki etiquette by asking you a question in this particular type of forum...

I am a very novice wikipedian just trying to get aquainted with the style and markup language. In my quest to make a somewhat reasonable userpage, I was checking through people's source(edit) code and noticed that you have something with which I need help. When you list your babel on your main page, the source is like so: {{User:Jacqui M/babel}

My userbox source, on the other hand is fully explicit:

Is there some way I can 'summarize' my code to make it more like yours? Any help is greatly appreciated. I have searched around a bit and I can't seem to find a suitable tutorial to help me along.

On a side note, I grew up on the east side of Cleveland myself, and give many winks to your likes of Good Eats, Mythbusters, and disklike of IVs!

Please feel free to yell at me if I should have put this in a different location, and I will be happy to oblige.

Cheers, Juan Banana 01:49, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

LGBT interest userbox
Hi! After participating in some discussion about userboxes, I've decided to create a userbox specifically for people who are interested in LGBT issues. I like this userbox a lot because it doesn't force people to take a stand on LGBT-related political issues or declare a particular identity, but just expresses a common interest in editing LGBT-related articles on Wikipedia. I saw your name on the list of people who are interested in this kind of thing at the LGBT notice board, and saw when I visited your userpage that you are pretty comfortable with userboxes, so I thought I'd let you know about this one in case you want to list it on your user page. I am hoping that people will see it, click the link to the notice board, and become more involved in editing LGBT-related articles on Wikipedia. The userbox is at Template:User LGBT interest. - AdelaMae (talk - contribs) 06:26, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Edible salt
I have partially reverted your last reversion again, mainly because it (as was earlier said by another editor) disrupts part of the page. I have tried to put the proper referencing back into the article, but I am afraid that that also resulted in some statements of you being reverted. If so, I am sorry, but, IMHO, the section is quite unreadable with all those references being written in the text. Could you have a look, change the wording to your liking, while trying to keep the referencing system? Thanks! --Dirk Beetstra T C 17:36, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Hi Jacqui,
 * Don't mind reverting anything I wrote, my interest in edible salt was (and is) purely chemical, hence it was on my watch-list for some time now. After all, it is just sodium chloride we are eating (with some additives), would people realize they are eating a chemical compound? :-p  I just reverted so that it at least has the referencing system in place, and also put other inline-URL's in references.  Do whatever you want with the article.  IMHO, I think it is rather unreadable .. statements which have only counterarguments etc., maybe arguments should be written out (keeping a neutral POV), and then countered?  Guess it could use some rewriting there ..  --Dirk Beetstra T  C 21:15, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

Miami Animal Police
Hello, and thankyou for the tag on my talk page. In retrospect, I think I probably placed the wrong tag on that article - the problems I saw were largely related to the proportionally large number of redlinks in the article text, most of which could (probably) be de-linked entirely. It could also benefit from the addition of a Television infobox, as could some of the other articles in the series, and some minor copyediting (ie, merging paragraphs, etc).

Since you asked, I'll get started on these. Serves me right for being lazy on NP Patrol. :) RandyWang ( raves/review me! ) 02:27, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * LOL. And here I was afraid I'd come to my talkpage and find something that would have to be moved to my litterbox. Your criticisms do make sense, actually. I'll work on it. Some of the other shows in the "See also" section need the same sorts of help. Anyway, I'm sorry if I bordered on bad faith there for a moment. Jacqui ★ 02:37, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Hah! Sorry to have scared you, then. I've added an infobox to Miami Animal Police, generally cleaned it up a little and removed the Cleanup tag. I don't know anything about the show, though, so I'd appreciate if you could make the infobox a little less... almost entirely empty. :)


 * I didn't actually think you were anywhere near bad faith. Honestly, my userpage is a pretty good example of what happens when mild OCD meets an excessive supply of free time. Besides, I did invite you to call me a dick. :) RandyWang ( raves/review me! ) 02:41, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Lake County flooding
Hi. I don't have much experience in contributing to articles on current events, so I may not be of help here. I can't find the discussion right now, but if I remember correctly, an article about last month's flooding was deleted because it wasn't a major enough disaster. The damage in Lake County, however, seems more serious, and if the area is declared a federal disaster area, it would be difficult to argue about its notability. If you don't think the subject is suitable for a wikipedia article, perhaps it would work better as a wikinews article that could then be linked to. By the way, Cleveland.com also has a special section on the floods. - EurekaLott 05:35, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Alertstatusred.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Alertstatusred.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 ensure 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Another editor has added the "prod" template to the article Kaitlin & Rick, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also What Wikipedia is not and Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page.
