You're Welcome!
Hi. The welcome message was no problem, I will usually give it to anyone as long as I see that they have contributed something and are new. It does seem slightly robotic at first, but then there are dozens of people who never even read it so there has to be a way of expediting the process.

As for the deletes. . . I cannot delete pages, only recmooned it -- an administrator has to do the actual deleting. However, some new users do not understand that this being an "encyclopedia that anyone can edit", doesn't mean that there aren;t rules and a lot of people don't take the time to read them. The articles have to meet certain criteria in general. What most people don't see is that RC patrollers save as many poorly written or short articles as they nix others. If any of your articles ever gets a delete message stuck on it, don't be afraid to ask why and if you disagree with the explanation, to contest it. And don't take it personally, because it isn't an attack, but just an attempt to make the encyclopedia a quality resource.

Anyway, thanks for leaving me the message and if you need anything at all, just let me know and I will do my best to assist you in any way that I can. :)

Thanks
Here's a userbox for you. --Cyde Weys 04:52, 9 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, thanks, but as I mentioned on your talk page, I... sort of voted 'oppose' for your RFA - apologies about that by the way... --NomaderTalk 04:39, 10 March 2006 (UTC)

My RfA
Thanks for supporting my RFA. I really appreciated the show of support and all the kind words from so many great Wikipedians. I hope I live up to them! -- Vary | Talk 17:51, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

My RFA
Thank you for supporting my RFA. I appreciated the show of support and all the kind words. If there's ever anything I can do to help with my new administrator status, please don't hesitate to contact me. --Myles Long 14:20, 15 March 2006 (UTC)

Bahamut-
yes, it's me. How are you Nomader? I'm great! I finally reached 1k reviews AND 500 responses on NG. So that makes me the 10th user to get 500 responses and the 20th user to get 1k for all stats! :D Also, I've submitted a new flash. Enjoy! --Bahamut 15:03, 15 May 2006 (UTC)


 * You should pay a visit there a little more often. ;) --Bahamut 19:46, 15 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I have a Media exam coming up on Thursday, but I should be OK with everything. My last exam is a Science exam on 14th June. --Bahamut 15:06, 16 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Ah, too bad. :| If you can, please do take a short visit to NG every now and again. :)--Bahamut 14:55, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

CorbinSimpson's Request for Adminship
Thanks for voting in my request for administrator rights, even though it failed (13/30/4). Sadly, work has forced me to respond to you all using a substituted message rather than a personalized response. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that administrators, to me, should be chosen and approved by the community, and I will continue working to become a better editor and Wikipedian. No matter what the alignment of your vote was, I will take your comments seriously and use them to improve myself. If you wish to discuss your comments personally with me, I would be more than glad to talk about things since the RfA is now over; just leave your concern on my talk page and we will sort things out. Thanks again for voting, and happy editing! -  Corbin  Be excellent 

Objection!
I've added more stuff to the Objection! page. :) MrD 00:37, 28 July 2006 (UTC) (oops @_@)

Thanks, warning
Thanks for supporting me in my RfA, but why did you mess up Randfan's comment? &mdash;The Gr e at Llamamoo? 23:46, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
 * And why did you also do this for Requests for adminship/Ccool2ax? &mdash;The Gr e at Llamamoo? 23:49, 1 December 2006 (UTC)


 * You might want to check out this discussion. It seems there were some major glitches today. -- Auburn Pilot talk 02:07, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

My (ccool2ax's) RFA
I noticed you opposed me partially because I dislike Notability. You seem to imply that I don't like it because an article I mistakenly created was deleted. I would like to assure you that the article has nothing at all to do with why I hate notability. I was a new editor, even stupider than now, and I have sane, real reasons for opposing Notability, as one of the questions says. -- Chris is  me 18:34, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah, no worries. I have screwed up a lot, so I'll keep editing for a few months with a clean record to prove I'm past that. And If I'm not, I won't run again. -- Chris is  me 22:53, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

College basketball project merge
Thanks for taking care of the merge. I've removed my comments from Olière's page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daveahern (talk • contribs) 23:03, Dec 23, 2006 (UTC)

Much-belated RfA Thanks
I would like to take the time to thank you for voting in my unsuccessful RFA. I'll try to be more rational in the future, really! Have a nice day, and I apologize for the laggy response! -- Chris is  me 17:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

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

Tom Penders dispute
Hi there, I saw you on the College basketball project. I've been having a dispute with another editor about the Tom Penders article. I added in information about the scandals he was involved in at Texas and George Washington and another user is removing them, calling them "defamation." Although they may not reflect well on Penders, I think they're factual and I've sourced them. I'd appreciate it if you would take a look. Thanks --AW 08:15, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

WP Christianity
Hi, I saw your name on the WikiProject Christianity Membership page.

I've made some changes to the WP Christianity main project page, added several sup-project pages, created a few task forces section, and proposed several more possible changes so that we can really start making some serious progress on the project. Please stop by and see my comments on the project talk page here and consider joining a task force or helping out with improving and contributing to our sub-projects. Thanks for your time!

Image source problem with Image:AKSteelLogo.jpg
This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:AKSteelLogo.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Fair use disputed for Image:Blessed SacLogo.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Blessed SacLogo.JPG. 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 05:13, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:DaveMirraBMX.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:DaveMirraBMX.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. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 15:41, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Massivesnowscreen.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Massivesnowscreen.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 03:07, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Jampack.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Jampack.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image 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 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 non-free media 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. Project FMF (talk) 01:31, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
