geo-stub
Hi - just a small note that places on Mars or other planets dont get geo-stub, they get crater-stub. Thanks for helping sort stubs! -- BL  kiss the lizard  08:24, 2 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that. I knew it needed stubbing and geo-stub was the first one which worked. --maru (talk) Contribs 22:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

The link
The Dalip Singh pic was taken from http://www.puroresufan.com/roster/singh.php, it appears quite often in other sources as well, though.


 * Ah. In that case, we can use it via fair use, with a publicity template. I've taken the liberty of doing so. --maru (talk) Contribs 00:18, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

São Francisco River requested move
Hi. I, recently, requested to move the article Rio São Francisco to São Francisco River. However, you moved the article to São Francisco river (instead of São Francisco River, with the capital letter R). Can you fix this, and move the article to São Francisco River? Thanks for your help. Keep up the good work. Regards, Carioca 23:29, 2 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Oops. I must have made a typo there. Not much of an excuse I know... I'll move it. --maru (talk) Contribs 00:13, 3 January 2006 (UTC)


 * BTW- you should probably fix all the redirects. I took care of the double redirect, but not the singles. --maru (talk) Contribs 00:27, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Keep up the excellent work. I will fix the redirects. Regards, Carioca 00:29, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

What is an "anti-chamber"?
Bad spelling.

an·te·cham·ber n a small room leading into a larger main room and often used as a waiting area


 * I can assume this error has been fixed? --maru (talk) Contribs 02:56, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Image:Dan-lispmachine.jpg
Image:Dan-lispmachine.jpg is a good picture, but we need to know more - who took it, who is the copyright owner? Without that, the picture may be deleted in a week. Also, fairuse is deprecated because fair use is only valid relative to specific articles, for instance Non-free fair use in is available. Stan 02:52, 3 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Gotcha. I'm on it. --maru (talk) Contribs 02:58, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Image:Dan-lispmachine.jpg
You tagged this image as fairuse; you do know that tag requires a "detailed rationale explaining why this use qualifies as fair use.", right? If such a rationale is not there, eventually, the image may be deleted, even without further warning... Just so you know. --JesseW, the juggling janitor 22:55, 3 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Done. And I have to say, our coverage of images has seriously improved- times were even three uploaded pics wouldn't draw a single mention from another user, and now one picture draws two! --maru (talk) Contribs 23:18, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for the heads up about the images, If I wasn't so busy I would tag them all but I do plan on re-adding them later with rationale attached when I have a whole day to devote to it. Thanks again for letting me know. --Derktar 06:30, 3 January 2006 (UTC).


 * I'm afraid I already deleted them, a while ago. To be honest, I don't think you'll manage to get that many fair use pictures in a single article or page, but good luck anyway. --maru (talk) Contribs 06:36, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

List of minor Jedi characters deletions
I only removed the minor characters that had their own articles. At least, that's what I tried to do. You make it seem like I deleted the whole thing. Did I?


 * No, you didn't- but they still shouldn't have been deleted, since they belonged in the list. They simply weren't fully in the list because there was too much material; if it all had been included, it would have made that page unwieldy to deal with. --maru (talk) Contribs 18:39, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

I have corrected Chris Bangs
Marudubshinki, I removed reff. to specific people and edited the article removing neg. comments and peoples names. Also I took out all of the stuff that looked like a bacchanal commercial. What else can I do to improve/save the article?


 * I really don't know. The two best things I can think of for you to do are:
 * Go to the AFD, using the link on the article page, vote Oppose to the deletion, and explain why you think this guy is worthy of an article; I put it up for deletion because I couldn't see what made the guy interesting or important- but I'm not a music aficionado, so there could well have been something buried in the tortured prose of your article which did establish his notability (as we say here).
 * For God's sake, cleanup the article! Surely some of that stuff could be linked to existing articles, the grammar improved, the spelling corrected. Also, there are a lot of formatting niceties which could be done- look at other musician biographies, they are often good examples. If there are specific things you can't quite figure out, I'm fairly good at this sort of thing.
