User talk:Jh12/Archive 1

Welcome message
Hi, Jh12, Welcome  to Wikipedia!

I hope you like this place &mdash; I sure do &mdash; and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Help and the FAQ, plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page or place  on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly. ---

Additional tips
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
 * If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
 * You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Five will get you the datestamp only.
 * You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
 * If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the votes for deletion page. There is also a votes for undeletion page if you want to retrieve something that you think should not have been deleted.
 * If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
 * If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

Happy Wiki-ing. &mdash; Kf4bdy talk contribs

Re: WPSchools template assistance
Hi Jh12. I made a couple of changes to your proposed replacement for WPSchool:


 * 1) Moved row breaks outside of #if statements
 * 2) Added a row break before the "needs-infobox" row
 * 3) Moved collaborations to subpage: User:Jh12/WPSchoolTest1/Collaborations

The first thing is possible because Mediawiki treats two consecutive "|-" with nothing in between them as if there was not an extra row. This greatly simplifies the creation of conditional rows in wikitables because you make the template much easier to read:





The missing row break before the "needs-infobox" row would have been a problem, so I added it. Having the collaborations as a subpage means that normal users can edit them without worrying about breaking the template. You will probably want this to be a subpage of WikiProject Schools for more natural reuse.

Another general tip is that whitespace inside of ParserFunctions calls is stripped at the beginning and end, so I would encourage you to use linebreaks as I did above to increase readability. A pretty good example of a well-developed template that I've worked on is WikiProject California. It doesn't support needs-infobox, since there isn't a relevant infobox for that category, but it supports similar params that put the article into maintenance categories. Feel free to ask if you have any more questions. Mike Dillon 18:25, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:University of Houston Logo 2.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:University of Houston Logo 2.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 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. 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 not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

WikiProject Schools Sidebar
Jh12, the sidebar looks great. Nice job. I'd be interested to know how the project status graph is updated. Also, I added some bottom and left margin to it for aesthetics; hope that's okay (if it's not I know what you will do).

Stowe schools
Jh12, thanks for saving the copy. I'm going to do a bit of research and see if there's enough to do for a Stowe Central School District article. With the celebs that live there I would think there should be some angle. I appreciate the help.

Template help
Hey Jh12! I've seen your work on the wikiproject school template. I am currently working on another wikiproject banner in my sandbox here. I am having some trouble:
 * 1) I am doing a section about book classification (children's books, picture books etc). In one classification, picture books. The word pic outside of the banner as shown here:

You can see the word pic' on the top left corner.
 * 1) Also I am trying to make a ??? line for the classification when the type isn't type in yet as well but it don't work. Please help. You could edit the template here. Thanks a lot. KGV 09:04, 24 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I've fixed the "pic" issue. The problem was that was being used instead of.


 * I'm going to be away from Wikipedia for a little while since I'm in the midst of moving, so hopefully you can help User:KGV with any more changes that need to be done. If not, try asking at WP:VPT. Mike Dillon 02:29, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Ben Franklins School
I havent made the change, but I think its a B Fancy adding a few school assessments? I see you had a hand in the schools template. Can you explain why there are pages that have the template but lack the full definition

Oh and is there any harm in adding the template to a school that has not had one added yet Victuallers 19:30, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Re: The Redundant Category
I don't think the category (Category:School articles by quality) needs to exist at all unless there are shool articles not included under the wikiproject. This category could be made into a parent list for Universities and other schools, then it would be useful. Adam McCormick 22:14, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

6th Earl of Mayo
I remember uploading that series of images. A good editor I knew (I think he was an admin at the time - this was about 3 years ago so I can't be sure) had scanned and uploaded a bunch of pictures from a book that was out of copyright due to age. Those pictures were all slanted (a scanning error), so I used a photo editor to rotate and crop them. I can't remember who that editor was (my first guess was User:Adam Bishop but I think that's wrong) nor can I remember anything else specific about the source. Sorry - ugen64 15:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Regarding [Image:Mayo Main Bldg.jpg]]
Hi, I was able to communicate with User: by email for his above image upload for article on Mayo College. I then went ahead and edited the image page originally created by him and provided the "Source" and "Fair use rationale" as per email communication with the user. I also deleted all earlier tags which mentioned that the image will be deleted if no source is provided in a few days.

Kindly visit the image page and see what I did is admissible and make any corrections needed, see if the tag used by me is right or kindly change that too if needed. My doubt is can I like this go in and provide source and licensing info for another user after communicating with him on email?

Here is the link to the relevant image page:

Image source problem with Image:BFHS New Orleans Falcon Logo.gif
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:BFHS New Orleans Falcon Logo.gif. 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 16:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Benjamin Franklin High School (New Orleans, Louisiana)
I have placed the GA nomination for Benjamin Franklin High School (New Orleans, Louisiana) on hold. There are a few issues with the article yet, namely an over-abundance of lists (is the list of courses really necessary? it doesn't seem to be sourced) and a trivia section.

Disambiguation
Hi, I noticed you edited Franklin High School (New Hampshire) and added a disambiguation statement. It seems that articles like that don't need that statement. The only articles that would need a "other uses" statement would ones with an ambiguous title. Since this article has (New Hampshire) in the NAME, it's very clear what the article is about. If a user got to this page, they obviously WANT to be there, and they CLEARLY didn't get there by accident. the "other uses" statement is for articles with ambiguous names. For example, there are many articles about "garden", but the most common one would be like a vegetation garden. So there may be incorrect wiki links to Garden, meaning to link to Garden, Michigan. Or they may use a search engine and get to Garden, meaning to link to Garden, Michigan.

Also, when you use the "other uses" statement, use the pre-made other uses template, rather than typing it out, so that wikipedia can be very consistent, and it's shorter with less clutter.

Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions! --Dan Leveille TALK 22:09, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject California
Yes, my original edit of changing the template removed some of the template's functionality. I didn't relize that, so it was reverted and I understood that. But mainly I wanted to change the logo in order to stay consistent with all the other state banners. If they all use flags as their logos, then California should do the same?

Re: American medal count
It's irrelevant because as I see it, Americans are desperately grasping at straws to make themselves look better. It's bad enough already that the US media has decided to break the IOC convention, which 203 other nations all more or less follow. What's next? Medals per capita? Only count medals from "real" sports, according to Americans? (i.e. no weightlifting, no diving, etc. because those aren't "sports" according to many prejudiced Americans) We don't need this kind of nationalistic bias on Wikipedia.

Thanks for uploading Image:From Mao to Mozart.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Hi - I see you have recently created one or more new stub types. As it states at Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type.

Jayen Varma, Deletion Review Request
I am thankful for efforts you took to edit my page Jayen Varma. I had to do a lot of editing because, I am still unaware as to how editing can be made. Though I ve lots of Blogs in the net, I find only few are reliable. I consider Wikipedia as one of the most reputed ones. I agreed to delete my page only when Wikipedia was reluctunt to accept my post. But I wish to inform you that my World Record is very much Official as the Registry of official World Records which does it with Record Holders Republic is a competent Authority. The reliable link which I can give you is there. Thats http://www.recordholdersrepublic.co.uk/recordholdersdetails.asp?id=484. Also I am a member of the Guinness Community as a World Record Holder. If you still have doubt you can delete my name from Wikipedia. Now with lots of deletion notices on Top of my article, it seems to be confusing for others. I am not to edit it again since, I am still ignorant about editing. May be I can delete all my writings from Wikipedia. Let time prove everything. Once again I thank you for all the help. I request you to please look in to it as early as possible and make necessary edits or it can be deleted, since it looks confusing for other with many deletion notices. Hope you will do it.

Registry of Official World Records,USA&UK and Record Holders Republic,UK in May 2008 declared Jayen Varma from India as a World Record Holder in Bass Guitar as the "Fastest Percussive Bassist". He plays bass guitar in the same way that the Indian percussion instruments tabla and mridangam are played. He learned mridangam from Parassala Ravi, retired Principal of the Government Music College in Kerala, India.

Edited as per rules
Thanks for the reply by WP editors in the page Jayen Varma. I wish to inform you that I created World Record with Registry of Official World Records {Record Holders Republic} and not with Guinness World Records. I had applied to both RHR and GWR. But my record was annonced first by RHR. So I had to cancel my Guinness attempt. GWR and RHR are very reputed Authorities. Guinness is not the sole World Record Authirity in the World. Now If anybody wants to make a world record in the same criteria with Guinness or whatever, he has to play more than 36 notes per second, because I created 36 notes with Registry of Official World Records and Record Holders Republic. That was why I requested to Change it like the present edit. This is a Fact which is varifiable with http://www.recordholdersrepublic.co.uk/recordholdersdetails.asp?id=484. If this can not be accepted and WP believes that Guinness is the sole World Record Authority in the World, my page may kindly be deleted. I am really glad that I had a very good discussion here with really learned persons like you all.

Pl feel free to see the present edit. Now its varifiable. Its varifiable that I made a World Record with Registry of Official World Record and Record Holders Republic http://www.recordholdersrepublic.co.uk/recordholdersdetails.asp?id=484. This link page is for World Records only. Pl feel free to look in to it with a view that Guinness is not the sole authority to announce World Records.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:BFHS New Orleans Falcon Logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:BFHS New Orleans Falcon Logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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.

Bande Dessinée portal
Hello, sorry to disturb you. I have submitted the BD portal to a peer review and left a message to all the peer review volunteers, only two have replied. I will submit the portal in 5 days, and I want it to be ready to be featured. I saw that you left some comments on the Portal peer review page. Could you check also my portal ? Many thanks. --Pah777 (talk) 14:40, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem. I'll leave comments at the peer review page. --Jh12 (talk) 17:02, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: Henry Cabot Lodge
That stuff about Lodge is true... you have no idea what you're doing, do you? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.173.77.52 (talk) 05:02, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
 * While it may be true, it was also a semi-random, unsourced statement using language that was completely inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Wikipedia does not publish any individual editor's version of the truth, but rather published, verifiable information. Please review pages such as Verifiability, Citing sources, No Original Research, and Neutral Point of View. Thanks, --Jh12 (talk) 05:17, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

School anniversaries
Thank you for moving my university additions to the right portal. I will keep an eye open for dates regarding primary and secondary education in Canada. Know when a lot of schools opened, but that would be very trivial, and too many, so just did the very first ones. As primary schools are not generally notable for wikipedia there are not too many articles ergo, not too many dates. SriMesh | talk  02:00, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Portal:Schools
Number of biographies are a bit on the low side. And try cover more schools (but keep in mind that quality, not quantity, matters most). OhanaUnitedTalk page</b> 14:22, 29 October 2008 (UTC)


 * In this case, put in some high-quality B class articles that have very few, if any, POV or "citation needed" tags. <b style="color:#0000FF;">OhanaUnited</b><b style="color:green;">Talk page</b> 15:31, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
