I've blocked the user for 31 hours. However, in the future, you may wish to report repeated vandalism at WP:AIV for a faster response. Thanks for alerting me, though. — TKD::Talk 20:23, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 16:32, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Sign-in Assistant
Hi! I saw you added the link for Windows Live Sign-in Assistant to Template:Windows Live. However, I just thought that the "sign-in assisant" might not be notable for its own article. Instead maybe it could be a section in Windows Live ID? -Pikablu0530 23:25, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Better source request for Image:Zathyus_Networks_logo.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Zathyus_Networks_logo.png. You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talkpage. Thank you. OsamaK (talk) 08:26, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:ZetaBoards ACP.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:ZetaBoards ACP.png. 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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot (talk) 20:30, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Firefox Theme Vista.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Firefox Theme Vista.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Windows Live OneCare Safety Center.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Windows Live OneCare Safety Center.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 03:13, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

RE: Replacement of IE8 image
Why did you replace the image of IE8. The original was perfectly fine. Also, please reupload it with the wikipedia homepage showing. --Titan602 (talk) 16:24, 6 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Image:Internet Explorer 8 screenshot.png has three problems: first, its resolution is very high, so it is hard to see the toolbars and such. Second, it does not use the default search provider, and third, it contains the non-free Wikipedia logo. If you want to use the Wikipedia logo then you must get explicit permission from the Wikimedia Foundation, so including this logo in the screenshot makes it quite a bit more difficult to re-use the screenshot. Better to avoid the problem entirely and show a public domain web site; we're trying to illustrate the browser and not any particular web site anyway. —Remember the dot (talk) 17:36, 6 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I see. Sure thing. However, it is perfectly fine to take a screenshot of the wikipedia site if the screenshot is going to be shown on wikipedia. If you don't agree, just scroll down so you can't see it. ;) --Titan602 (talk) 18:00, 6 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, but it's still best to make the images as reusable as possible, so that others can copy Wikipedia content without worry. —Remember the dot (talk) 20:49, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Theme Park Builder 3D
A tag has been placed on Theme Park Builder 3D requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. gsk - talk - 18:18, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,

As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.

We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.

You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Meetup, for updates on future meets.

We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

Image copyright problem with Image:Windows Live Ideas.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Windows Live Ideas.png. 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.
