User talk:Liu Bei

G'day!
G'day there, Liu Bei, and welcome to Wikipedia! Good authors are always welcome on the project, and I hope you like the place and decide to stick around!

We've got a few pages you might find helpful, such as: It's all best summed up here: write from a neutral point of view, play nice with others, and don't let the rules get you down.
 * Our "five pillars"
 * The lowdown on editing
 * A detailed tutorial
 * Our house manual of style

If you have any questions or need any help, my talkpage is always open for business, or you can see Newcomers help page. Here's a tip to start you off: if you type four tildes at the end of any messages you leave on talkpages (like this one) Wikipedia will automatically insert your name and the current date and time after your message. Cool, eh? Happy editing! fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 07:23, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Victory
Hello Liu Bei, I note that your reversion of my work on the above has caused: Perhaps we might work together to resolve the current loss of the above? Thanks, David Kernow 22:43, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
 * The reintroduction of more than one wikilink per entry, contrary to a well-established Manual of Style convention;
 * The loss of a new entry;
 * The reintroduction of more than one entry without any wikilink to the item being disambiguated (e.g. the Joseph Conrad novel, the definitions of victories);
 * The removal of subject headings intended to aid those seeking disambiguation;
 * The reintroduction of material more suited to the Wikitionary (definitions of types of victory) and Wikiquote (quotes about or involving the concept of victory).


 * ''I've replied to your post on [ Talk:Victory] regarding substantial revision to this disambiguation page. Liu Bei 23:26, 13 May 2006 (UTC)


 * (From Talk:Victory:) ''...Just because no one's gotten around to making a page for the Joseph Conrad novel victory doesn't mean we should strike all knowledge of it from everywhere else

I think you might've missed how I handled this entry; I don't recall deleting it, but upgrading it to a redlink...
 * ''The definitions/uses of victory (pyrrhic victory and quote from Apocalypse now) is exactly the kind of broad-web I enjoy in Wikipedia and suits its primary purpose -- to inform.

Have posted my reponse back at Talk:Victory as others may be able to confirm and/or enlighten. Thanks for your reply, David 00:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

Bindi as laser dot from rife sight
You haven't given any citations and, upon thinking about it, I've decided that this is an ugly remark, suggesting that the bindi makes a good shooting target. Please don't restore the sentence. Zora 22:14, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Your edit to Twinkie
Care to tell me what you had in mind with this edit? It looks like vandalism to me.--The ikiroid (talk·desk·Advise me) 03:04, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

The Holocaust protection
Just to let you know, adding or removing sprotected or protected on a page is only a means for an admin to notify users that a page is protected. This does not actually confer protection to the article The Holocaust. If you help need with page protection, please see Requests for protection. Thanks! Kevin_b_er 07:38, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Nonsense edits
You seem to be adding nonsense to articles, according to your talk page and this edit. Could you please explain why you made this edit, or is there something you need to talk about? Please feel free to respond here or on my talk page. -- Will Mak  050389  21:39, 22 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm sorry to say, but Wikipedia is not for jokes. Have you checked out Uncyclopedia? -- Will Mak  050389  21:44, 22 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I realize it may be a popular culture joke, but it is not relevant enough to be added to the article. If I had not deleted it, someone else would have. I'm just trying to help you with the inner workings of Wikipedia. Hopefully you understand. Also, if you could sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes (~) it would help. Thank you. -- Will Mak  050389  21:50, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Guinea-worm.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Guinea-worm.jpg. The image description 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.

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 fair use images 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.

Picard quotes
Since you obviously found a previous iteration of the article with the quotes -- could you please dig it up again and copy/paste the actual article text (i.e. what appears in the text editing field) rather than the "show differences" section? You wound up snagging hyphens and other markup that kinda jack up the layout -- take a gander at it, you'll see that it looks a little screwy. Many thanks. --EEMeltonIV 03:11, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Helepolis aom.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Helepolis aom.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 22:50, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Seymour.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Seymour.gif. 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.

Your addition to Flying Spaghetti Monster
Hi Liu Bei, I'm sorry but I removed your recent addition to the article on the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Please see my comments on the talk page. -- Semper discipulus 16:33, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Aria ff6.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Aria ff6.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 09:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Juggetnaut bitch.JPG)
Thanks for uploading Image:Juggetnaut bitch.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.

Fair use rationale for File:Imfree.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Imfree.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file 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 file 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 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:41, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
