Hendren v. Campbell
Hi, just edit conflicted with you over the star of the Hendren article. Good to know someone else is looking at that also. Incidentally, I noticed in your talk page history you've removed some prior conversations. The accepted practice on Wikipedia is to archive previous discussions on a separate page so they can be easily found. See WP:ARCHIVE. JoshuaZ 18:00, 20 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks. But the utter speed was a suprise.  I actually created the Kitzmiller v. Dover (before I registered) and spent at least an hour or two working on it before I got any help.  It was only minutes after I made a link to it from the Kitzmiller article that I posted my stub and only a very short time before you started contributing.  MichaelSH forgot to sign this comment.

I knew that some people archived talk, I did not realize that it was standardized. I considered what was cut to be out-of-date and of little interest. I guess if enough talk shows up here I will have to achive it. As it is, only a few edits have been made to this talk page and thus checking history will get it.

Oh, and two other things- first when writing on talk pages you may want to sign your comments on talk pages with four tildes ~ which will be relaced with your user name and the time of your comment. Second, regarding redirects being made into directs, you may want to see. In general, unless one is editing something else on the page with that edit it does not make sense to change redirects into direct links. Especially when an article is new one should wait until one has some other change to do and then make the redirect modification when one does that. JoshuaZ 22:15, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I know about the four tildes. I usually do sign my remarks in talk pages, but it is easy to sometimes to forget to do so. MichaelSH 22:23, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:PZ Myers City Pages.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:PZ Myers City Pages.jpg. 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).

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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:28, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Gee I am talking to a computer program... For the record, the image was used at City Pages as a fair use illustration of a cover of that periodical. Someone us replaced it a current cover.MichaelSH 01:26, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Ronald J. Clarke
I've nominated Ronald J. Clarke, an article you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that Ronald J. Clarke satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion; I have explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/Ronald J. Clarke and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). You are free to edit the content of Ronald J. Clarke during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you.
