Unblock request
Thanks User:Daniel Case I don’t know what happened in the first place but the block seems to have ended as mysteriously as it began. TY just the same and so sorry to bother. jengod (talk) 14:50, 6 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Given that you've been editing here for 19 years (longer than me) without ever getting blocked, I think you should go to WP:IPECPROXY and apply for IP block exemption; you'd probably get it very easily (I'd do it myself but I'm not familiar enough with your editing to vouch for you, and they sort of stopped admins from giving IPBE away so readily some years ago). That would eliminate the need for having to do this. Daniel Case (talk) 19:06, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh thank you! I was very active in my first few years of involvement but then I got pulled away by work and kids and was fairly inactive for a long stretch. I’ll check out the IP thing you suggest. Best jengod (talk) 19:13, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

Thank you in advance. jengod (talk) 16:58, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

DYK nomination of Philippe I, Duke of Orléans
Hi, I saw on Template:Did you know nominations/Philippe I, Duke of Orléans that QPD failed. I am still relatively new to Wikipedia and have no idea what this means. Could you please let me know what's going on with that? Unlimitedlead (talk) 23:37, 4 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I think “relatively new” is the magic words. If you submit a lot of DYKs they want you to start reviewing other DYK submissions, aka “quid pro quo.” I’ll check the box. jengod (talk) 00:00, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Thank you for the information Unlimitedlead (talk) 00:04, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh and it’s not failed overall just so you know it’s in the approved queue as far as I can see. (I’m new too.) It’ll be a while for before it appears on main page bc of backlog but it should be fine. If I’m wrong, ping me. jengod (talk) 00:10, 5 September 2022 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Schematic map of a model tank cascade system.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Schematic map of a model tank cascade system.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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, per the non-free content policy.

Orphaned non-free image File:Different Sri Lanka tank cascade system naturalized irrigation network layouts.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Different Sri Lanka tank cascade system naturalized irrigation network layouts.jpeg. 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:09, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

Dangers of the Mail
I got to this from your Karl R. Free when I was checking it for the move to queue at DYK. I read the article and was like...hm, sounds like that mural might have gotten enough coverage to be notable twice since its unveiling. I kind of am wondering how many of those murals got enough attention back in the 30s/40s that we'd be able to get an article out of them. I added Dangers of the Mail to List of United States post office murals and List of Native American-themed murals, and none of the murals on either list has an article. I strongly suspect some of them had to have gotten comment at the time they were created, even if they haven't since. Valereee (talk) 17:51, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Birding in NYC
Thanks for tracking down some good images for the article. Been plugging away at the article for a while now, but haven't spent enough time on images (beyond the images that I already knew existed). &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 19:18, 26 October 2022 (UTC)


 * User:Rhododendrites While I was looking for photos I started to suspect the photographer of so many great NYC bird photos on Commons might have contributed heavily to the article (I was right!) and thus been hesitant to over illustrate with their own stuff. It’s a great article. I brought to it only that I am not from NYC so I am attracted to grandiose skyline photos that loudly telegraph Birds in Big City. (LOL) cheers. jengod (talk) 19:33, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Ha. Thanks. You are not wrong. Hopefully this changes soon, but there aren't many people taking pictures relevant to the article. I didn't do a great job of digging through Commons though, apparently. I like the historic birding photos and the ones that make it clear "this is NYC". Those aren't photos I think to take... &mdash; Rhododendrites  talk \\ 02:49, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

Nomination of Los Angeles federal building for deletion

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Los Angeles federal building until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished. MB 02:00, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

Studebaker family
Studebaker family doesn't really work as a disambiguation page - there is no article whose title will be easily confused with 'Studebaker family'. It could be a list article or a redirect to a list.

 * Personally, I think that stuff is weird to advertise on your user page. They are unsourced contentious assertions about people. Since all are deceased, it is not a WP:BLPREMOVE issue, but I'm not sure it's the kind of thing you'd want to maintain. Elizium23 (talk) 23:23, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
 * The first five are my opinion, 3 are dead, 2 are alive. The last 4 are just the obvious conclusion that comes from (a) reading the article and (b) having been around the block a few times. I will likely the remove in the interests of keeping the peace but I think there is a class of people who are the Least Reliable sources about their own biography, and I'm not sure we have a way to responsibly approach that. jengod (talk) 23:28, 19 December 2022 (UTC)

I have confirmed since I created that page they're two members of the same family (uncle and nephew) so I thought it was weird that one was "English" and one was "British" -- it seemed like it should be both Brits or both English (or no nationality necessary since it says it's an English surname at the top). jengod (talk) 18:07, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
