Orphaned non-free media (Image:Lumbridge_Map.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Lumbridge_Map.jpg. 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. Melesse (talk) 23:46, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Saltee Islands (Airman setting)
Another editor has added the  template to the article Saltee Islands (Airman setting), 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. If you remove the  template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Unblock request
For some strange reason I'm still blocked. Littleteddy (talk) 11:16, 27 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I've reverted the vandalism. The autoblock is presumably because there's a vandal who connects to the Internet using a connection numbered the same way as yours (this most often happens when a legitimate and vandal child are both trying to edit from the same school network, although can happen in other cases as well that have nothing to do with schools, depending on the setup of your ISP); an administrator should be along soon to figure out what happened with the block request. --ais523 11:27, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

List of skills in RuneScape
A tag has been placed on, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a. If you can indicate how List of skills in RuneScape is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template hangon underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:List of skills in RuneScape saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. If you believe the original discussion was unjustified, please feel free to use deletion review, but do not continue to repost the article if it is deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we request you to follow these instructions. Sturm 12:38, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
 * There was consensus at Articles for deletion/RuneScape combat not to have a separate article for this topic. Please note that the article RuneScape skills has merely been redirected to RuneScape, and is still present in the edit history with much more content than your recreation, which has been deleted meanhile, so I move my comment here. If you feel the article is necessary, please try to gain support and consensus for your opinion to restore the other one.--Tikiwont (talk) 12:54, 27 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hello there, I deleted the page here because as explained in the speedy tag, this article has already been discussed in an Articles for Deletion discussion, and the result was that it should be deleted. I realise you will have put a lot of work into this, but it's a topic that really is never going to be possible to source. The main article on Runescape is sourced - rather well actually - but unless you can find references to the skills from outside the game itself, this particular article is never going to survive. I haven't checked the Lumbridge article yet, but I suspect the same might be said of that... Don't be too disappointed, try and find a topic where the are some quotable sources, and write an article on that instead! Kim Dent-Brown  (Talk)  13:04, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Yagan
G'day,

Having worked so hard to get Yagan up to featured article standard, I'm keen to maintain it that way. It is good that you have added the assertion that some people consider him a hero, but I see two problems with the way you've done it: For these reasons combined, I think the placement of a poor-quality citation in such a prominent location detracts from the article rather than improving it. What do you think?
 * 1) The citation is inadequate. greenleft is not a reputable source, and they are not qualified to speak to whether Yagan was a hero or not. I will see if I can find a better source.
 * 2) In this article we took the approach of making the lead a summary of the rest of the article. No material was included in the lead that wasn't included (with citation) elsewhere in the article, so there was no need for the lead to contain any references. What this article really needs is a paragraph on what Yagan means to people these days, but I'm not sure if there is any information available on that.

Hesperian 11:26, 5 March 2008 (UTC)


 * If I can scrape together a legacy section, then I definitely think the topic deserves a sentence in the lead, and "some people consider him a hero" would be a good start. I'll see what I can do. Hesperian 12:35, 5 March 2008 (UTC)
 * . Hesperian 00:38, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Will we need a reference? You lost me. The new legacy section has three references, and the addition to the lead is merely a summary of that section. I think this is okay. I'll have a look at your url anyhow but. Hesperian 10:52, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * That's the way I like to do it — the references support the article proper, and the article proper supports the lead. That's how I did it here and in my other FAs. Others do things differently. There's probably no right answer. Hesperian 11:34, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Pleasure working with you. This is testament to the fact that even longstanding featured articles can be substantially improved. Hesperian 11:38, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey
Hey, so I noticed this edit summary and turned it on for you. Please be sure to read the relevant pages, particularly Rollback feature and Rollback policy. Please also understand that rollback is an anti-vandalism feature only and if you use it for reverting non-vandalism edits or in content disputes any administrator can remove it without warning. Sarah 12:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Replied on your page. Littleteddy (roar!) 12:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Metronome (Band) Page
So, I edited the Metronome page and now it looks like the changes I made are gone. The information on the page is wrong so I edited it and improved the information and I got a message about a copyrighted image? I noticed there was some sort of image on there too so I removed it. (Meaning I didn’t post it on there) the changes I made the page were legitimate. Thanks for encouraging people to contribute.

User - "Shinjuku Gewalt" at (09:51) GMT

Sorry, I don't think you quite understand. I didn't add the picture. I removed it. And made improvements on the text content.

I know that you were looking out for vandalism, and I appreciate that, but in the future you should add the WP:CSD tag to the already blank article rather than revert the blanking and apply the tag. And please do be a little more careful with your warnings in the future--since you have to scan the page to see what level to leave anyway, you should also take the time to see if there are any active discussions going on that may inform the user's actions. In this case, warning a brand new user for taking the advice of an experienced user is not the most desirable outcome.

Thanks! -- jonny - m t  10:02, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Chasnor15
I saw your conversation with User:Chasnor15 on his talk page. He made three wording changes at Stonyhurst Saint Mary's Hall: I believe you owe Chasnor15 an apology. Matchups (talk) 13:38, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * persecution to prohibition--this is a question of fact, not of usage. I am not familiar with the facts, but I suggest that the two of you resolve the issue by reference to reliable sources.
 * before to that--this was a grammatical correction: Chasnor15 was right, and the article was wrong before he fixed it.
 * sport to sports--either is correct; this is a regional variation. Wikipedia standards are not to make changes between equally correct usages or spellings due to regional variation, in order to avoid interminable flip-flopping.  Chasnor15 may not have been aware of this standard, but the edit does not suggest a lack of English fluency.
 * I'm sorry but I think you are mistaken - you might like to ask the original message-leaver and not me, I was merely suggesting that Chasnor15 should not have interpreted the original 'messager's' comment this way. I apologise if there was a misunderstanding in our communication here, I hope the problem has been rectified. Littleteddy (roar!) 13:41, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * As you can see I also agreed with Chasnor15 in the red-links issue. He was correct in that aspect. My comments were to do with how he/she handled the situation, rather than the grammar issue itself. Littleteddy (roar!) 13:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Oops! Although User:Imaginativename properly signed his comment, Chasnor15 messed up the talk page and I misread the history.  My apologies for blaming you and I will repost my comments in the proper place (as well as cleaning up that page).  Thanks for pointing out my error. Matchups (talk) 17:46, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I understand. Thank you for doing that - I wasn't sure if I had done something wrong or not! You're forgiven [[Image:Wink.png]] Littleteddy (roar!) 00:04, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Apology for my over reaction
I would like to apologise for my use of a warning template on your talk page in this misunderstanding about my edit count, as Gnangarra has pointed out, it was not appropriate in this context, and I over reacted. In future I would prefer to be notified on my talk page about such a discrepency, but I hope you won't hold my over reaction against me. I also will upload a screenshot of the preferences pane that I based my edit count on to my talk page to show that I am not trying to inflate anything. Thank you.

Hi. I was about to tag that as a Hoax and see that you had concerns also but reverted yourself. Are you still sure its not, because I'm still leaning towards it being dodgy. The creator has just been blocked as a vandalism only account. &mdash;Moondyne click! 03:00, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I found the textbook using Google - so I'm not willing to prod/db it yet until I can confirm the status of the page. Littleteddy (roar!) 05:04, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I'm still fairly sceptical over its validity, but just as importantly, the article contains no assertions of why he's notable, even if he is a real person.  I'm fairly sure he'd fail a notability test as the article stands.  But, if your intention is to research him some more, I'll assume good faith and let it go for now.  Would you mind letting me know how you get on? &mdash;Moondyne click! 05:15, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
