Ubuntu icon
I reverted back to the PNG version. The SVG version scales improperly in 50x50 px (the heads look REALLY big). Plus, the colors are the same as the ones in the copyrighted Ubuntu logo; my PNG version purposefully avoids this (though, I admit, at the expense of aesthetics; that red is awful). Also, your logo's heads are on the outside like Canonical's. I'm not saying you must move the heads inside like I did but still do some more things to avoid copyright infringement. I think consistent SVG Ubuntu/Xubuntu/Goobuntu/etc. logos would be good, but make sure the copyright police don't get mad. My PNG version got accused of being a copyright violation. I think my rebuttal is on the image's talk page. It could come in handy when making copy-safe SVG Ubuntu icons.

Also, if you decide to convert my images to SVG without modification, they must be placed in the public domain as per Bridgeman_Art_Library_v._Corel_Corp. ;)

 * That's fine. I placed my copyright rationale on the userbox talk page, in accordance with your doing so. I recognize that the colors are largely the same, but I believe that I threw in one or two others. I'll work on modifying them from Canonical's some more. --Linus(contact me) 03:35, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Supersymmetry
Hi Linus: I did give the SuSy article a pretty thorough going-over back in February, but since I am not an expert in the field, I don't consider that to be "attention from an expert". From what I can see, the article is in reasonably good shape right now. -- Xerxes 14:28, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Top quark
That information is correct; the top quark does not hadronize. This fact was first noted in the paper Production and decay properties of ultra-heavy quarks by Bigi, et al. in 1986. They say:


 * If the lifetimes [of ultra-heavy quarks] become much shorter than the typical strong interaction time scale &Lambda;QCD−1 ~ 10−23 s, then open-flavor hadrons and quarkonium bound states cannot be formed any more.

Higgs boson consensus vote
There is currently a vote on the Higgs boson talk page over whether or not to merge the pop culture references article with the main article. I noticed you've previously contributed to the debate, so your vote would be helpful in establishing a consensus (or, perhaps, a vote of "no consensus", in which case the problem will be referred to AfD). Thanks! -DMurphy 21:35, 30 March 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Narnia

(Cars) Tires, not antennae
I'm relatively certain that the cars in Cars generally use their tires as hands, not their antennae. I'm going to change this, but feel free to make a case that I am wrong (if you have one!). Hey, my warranty didn&#39;t run out after all! 16:54, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Ziocon
Hi Linus, I noticed your comment on the talk page of the Ziocon article. I have nominated it for speedy deletion, because a.) that is not a widely used term and b.) the article is merely an attack page on those who support Israel.--Carabinieri 02:33, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Vandalism

WikiProject Free Software IRC Channel?
I think we should have an IRC chan. It should be on Freenode because Wikipedia uses freenode for IRC chans. I'll register it. It's called #wpfs. Click Here to go to it! Wikinerd2000 13:37, February 17, 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh and yeah my nick is [gosub] on freenode! Wikinerd2000 13:38, February 17, 2007 (UTC)

Give me your nick on freenode and i'll give you Auto OP privliages. I got auto voice on my chan because the chans moderated, so if any "uncouth" users do anything... just devoice em for awhile, then temp ban then ban.

Wikiproject Free Software
Thanks for the notification! I went ahead and joined, and look forward to helping! P3net 05:48, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Distinction between Free-Software and Open-Source
Hi Linus -- I'm a little bit particular about the distinctions between the terms "free software" and "open source." I actually come down on the "open source" side of things. Perhaps if you guys are willing to expand your scope and name of the project to "The Free/Open Source Software Project," I'd be more than happy to join. Thanks for the invitation, though.

ccPublisher
There is no article on ccPublisher. "ccPublisher" currently redirects to Creative Commons, and that article has no information about ccPublisher. Gronky 21:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem. BTW, I'm glad to see WP:WPFS doing well.  It's a necessary project but I never had the time to try starting it myself.  I still don't have time to join, as I'm trying to get Portal:Free software to featured status right now, but I'm trying to help WPFS by mentioning it on the portal and on some talk pages relevent to free software.  It still hasn't gained enough momentum whereby it would be self sustaining if the current contributors took a break, but hopefully it will get there.  (I'm not sure that Portal:Free_software has gotten to that point yet either.)  Good luck. Gronky 21:54, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Conservapedia refugees
Hey, if you ever feel the need to commiserate with other refugees from conservapedia we have set up a little space on the internet so we can share in our common frustration. Most of the more intelligent and rational editors have come on by, if no one has passed the link on to you I would love it if you would come by and offer your perspective. There are several active editors that don't really want to be "outed" yet so I avoid posting the link to pubicly accessible spots because a few of the SYSOPS have shown a propensity for trolling user pages on wikipedia looking for dirt. E-mail me at touloutm@mcmaster.ca and I will pass the link on directly. Tmtoulouse 17:19, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Safari RSS 2.0.4.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Safari RSS 2.0.4.png. 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 insure 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. Ilse@ 13:30, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Motto of the day
Hello, I notice you're using one of the motd templates, run by Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hers fold  (t/a/c) 03:24, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014
Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)


 * This message has been sent by p joe f on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

Quixotic plea
You are invited to join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Wikipediholism test. Thanks. —  06:37, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of @home
Hello Linus M.,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged @home for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. TheLongTone (talk) 13:22, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Computing Barnstar.png
Thank you for uploading File:Computing Barnstar.png. I noticed that 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, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 16:16, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
