Alabama Theatre

 * Great job, Lkseitz. --Dystopos 13:22, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You think so? Thanks! --Lkseitz 14:08, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes. Great to pick up on the copyright violation and plagiarism and to put some time into a rewrite. Fortunately for me, your rewrite is GFDL-licensed, so it's ok for me to swipe it for my nascent project, the BhamWiki. --Dystopos 14:25, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Actually, I wanted to expand the entry first. It was in researching that I discovered the plagiarism.  The BhamWiki project looks really interesting.  I'd like to ask you some questions about it.  Please send me an e-mail.  You can find a link to a form to e-mail at the bottom of my user page. (Trying to avoid spam, you know.) --Lkseitz 23:14, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Re: Alabama Theatre interior.jpg
I saw that you removed the link to Image:Alabama Theatre interior.jpg on the Alabama Theatre page because the image had been removed. Did you also remove the image itself? I just wanted to know why it was removed. Although it was copyrighted, I had received explicit permission to use the image on Wikipedia from the copyright holder and had posted such in its description (I believe). I thought this was acceptable. Am I mistaken? --Lkseitz 12:30, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * There are two broad categories of images which are allowed on Wikipedia: free content images (GFDL, the free content Creative Commons licences, and so on), and in certain limited cases, images claimed as fair use. 'With permission' images, as they are known, may only be used on Wikipedia if they are claimed as fair use in the normal way. The reason is that if only Wikipedia has permission to use the image then downstream users are restricted, but if we use the image under a claim of fair use, then downstream users can evaluate their own position and use the image if they can make the same claim of fair use.
 * In this case, I deleted the image (Image:Alabama Theatre interior.jpg) under CSD I6, images claimed as fair use but without a fair use rationale. See Help:Image page for details on what is required in this respect. If you can provide a good rationale then you can upload the image again, or I can undelete it if you don't have a copy. Note however that satisfying the fair use criteria is unlikely here given that the building is still there, and so it should be possible to create a free content photo of the theatre. --bainer (talk) 13:56, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Jacks logo.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Jacks logo.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) 23:45, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I've been away from Wikipedia and apparently I don't have e-mail notification turned on for this page. And now I can't find out how to turn it on, as I don't see it under "my preferences".  I have restored the logo with rationale.  If someone can tell me how to turn on e-mail notification of my User talk page being modified, please do so. --Lkseitz (talk) 15:48, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey y'all!
We're going to be having our first Mississippi meetup next month, and I would love it if you'd like to come out! A few of us will be staying overnight, so if you feel up to it, we could have a meet and greet that night and then breakfast the next morning and talk about Wikipedia and everyone's areas of expertise. Let's show 'em how it's done Southern-style! Mike H. Fierce! 22:17, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

You reversed my change to her Wikipedia article, so I'd really like to get your opinion to my request for more information on her discussion page. Thank you. --Rrand (talk) 16:15, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Jacks logo.png
 Thanks for uploading File:Jacks logo.png. 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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore will not be able to answer your questions.


 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used once again.


 * If you recieved this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.


 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to somewhere on your talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 06:14, 13 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Apparently someone uploaded a new logo and is using it instead. Okay, whatever. --Lkseitz (talk) 18:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted in Troy, Alabama
Hi! I'm leaving you this message because you're listed as a Wikipedian in Alabama. The Wikipedia Ambassador Program is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Troy University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester. The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are not required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

I know Alabama is a big state, but if you happen to live near Troy and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from Troy who might be, please email me or leave a message on my talk page.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 16:12, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
