Belgium
Hi Michel, found something beautiful in the Library of Congress today: a fundraising poster for World War I humanitarian relief in Belgium. Seems fitting to offer it to you. Due to quirks in copyright law and site policies it qualifies for local en:wiki upload under the  tag, but cannot be uploaded to Commons. Interested? Durova Charge! 04:47, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Nice work on the CP Stone photo
File:Charles P. Stone2b.jpg looks great. The handle link to the loc document doesn't work, though. I was curious about the file name change, and especially the new file name at the loc. BusterD (talk) 03:10, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oops. Link fixed! -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 11:15, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks. One more thing, and perhaps it's just me. Would you mind looking at the crop again? I think the background is too tall, especially when the image is deployed in the infobox. Out of curiosity, what made you choose this image to improve? Where did you see it? BusterD (talk) 13:53, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Not a problem. Crop adjusted. I was randomly ficking through images at the Library of Congress when this one my eye. I wonder what happened to Hettie -- imagine the stories she could tell! -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 14:03, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Image restoration
Hi Michel! I was notified that you might be the person to talk to about high-quality image restoration. I do not want to impose or anything, but if you have time, please take a look at this picture and see if you want to restore it. It would be great to improve the article Jaffa–Jerusalem railway, which I'm slowly working to bring up to GA status, and could fit in other article, such as Jerusalem and Jerusalem Railway Station (which I intend to write in the future). Thanks, Ynhockey (Talk) 20:36, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

 * There you go: file:Jerusalem Railway Station2.jpg -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 17:02, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the great restoration! Do you this it has a chance as a featured picture? (I don't know that much about the process) --Ynhockey (Talk) 18:54, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No thanks. It may have a shot at FP, but I can also imagine comments along the lines of "you can barely see the building itself". Which could then be answered in the vein of "yes, but a railway is more than just the building, this illustrates the rails that came from Belgium and the locomotives that came from X, etc.". I'll have a go, we'll see. :) -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 19:27, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

NICE interface modification: We need more users!
Hello. I am one of the developers of the NICE tool and the related study's contact person. I hope you have been finding the modification helpful so far. We have been gathering users for a little over a month now, but we haven't gotten as many users as we had hoped. We'd appreciate it if you would share the NICE tool with any editors that might find it useful. --E poch F ail (talk 16:41, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Brilliant work
Your photography is like nothing I've ever seen before. Such good poses, and so little editing. Have you considered writing for a photography criticism magazine? You could certainly use that work to land a job critiquing others to help them improve. Really, just beautiful, one-of-it's kind work. It's good to have you here. -- >David  Shankbone  15:30, 21 July 2009 (UTC)


 * David, give it a rest. You're taking a comment I made on your weblog on-wiki. This is not done. -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 16:25, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

Full version of NICE to be released
Thanks for helping me and my colleagues test the NICE interface modification. Depending on when you installed the tool, you were only presented with a specific subset of the features we have developed. We are ready to roll out the full feature set which, we expect, will make the gadget significantly more useful. Before we do that, we'd like you to answer a few questions about your activity in Wikipedia as it relates to undoing other's edits and what you thought of the NICE features you were shown.

The survey will ask for your Wikipedia username, but you can participate anonymously if you choose. To do so, send me an email with an address I can respond to and I will have the survey software respond with an anonymous token for you to continue. --E poch F ail (talk 16:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Genbox family history.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Genbox family history.png. 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 you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 13:03, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:I Love Katamari.png
 Thanks for uploading File:I Love Katamari.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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

 * There are three versions of that image: a low resolution courtesy copy, a high resolution (lossy) jpg copy, and this file, which is the original high resolution (lossless) version. MediaWiki apparently can't create thumbnaild for png files as big as this, and that's the only reason this image is orphaned.

Please note that Wikipedia does have a policy that says that people notable for only one event are not notable forever.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 20:12, 25 March 2012 (UTC)


 * We'll just have to agree to disagree. I think my WP:NTEMP beats your WP:1E. -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 21:00, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * More specifically, I think Wikipedia should do its best to keep the kind of content in that WP:1E tries to keep away. Wikipedia could really shine if it covered all sorts of ephemera, stuff no-one would remember if it weren't for Wikipedia. -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 21:03, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * NTEMP states "While notability itself is not temporary, from time to time re-assessment of the evidence of notability or suitability of existing articles may be requested by any user via a deletion discussion, or new evidence may arise for articles previously deemed unsuitable. Thus, articles may be proposed for deletion or recreated months or even years after being earlier considered. In particular, if reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event, and if that person otherwise remains, or is likely to remain, a low-profile individual, we should generally avoid having a biographical article on that individual." This seems to be a valid definition of what I am currently doing in regards to Shavershian. And your current beliefs are not held by the majority of the project. On this website, we have had to make WP:1E and WP:BLP1E to prevent articles on people who briefly appear in the media, but then fade away into obscurity. If no one is going to remember it unless we retain information on it, then it perhaps it never really made any actual impact on society or history such that we should cover it.— Ryulong ( 竜龙 ) 21:18, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I hear what you're saying, and there was no real need to copy-paste WP:NTEMP here. I still think the article should be kept (WP:1E doesn't apply here anyway), and furthermore even if it did, I think WP:1E itself should be removed. Last time I checked, I was entitled to my own opinion. I don't really understand why you're getting into this discussion. -- Michel Vuijlsteke (talk) 21:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Midnight Sun (graphic novel)


The article Midnight Sun (graphic novel) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * Fails the GNG and WP:BOOK; reviews are almost exclusively from bloggers and public posts. No substantive improvement in over a year, tagged as an orphan for months.  ZERO G-News hits.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:College of Europe logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:College of Europe 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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:32, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

Earl Fred Bennett moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Earl Fred Bennett, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three, to be safe. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
