User talk:Pinkboy

Thanks for contributing TC's 2005 Encompass Canada Keynote Address. Dr. Tom Capo (friend of TCS)

Pleasure - I was glad to be able to re-write the article and keep TCS in the Wiki! Pinkboy 20:27, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Regarding your citation requests
Hello:

On the article Fran Rubel Kuzui, you recently placed multiple citation requests. Thank you for the reminder; these have been referenced and removed. However, showing up on unrelated articles to create annoyance for editors with whom you may have had disputes can be construed as Wikistalking; please understand that the usages of tagging is not a tool to annoy, but to indicate that certain unsourced factual claims, particularly on obscure topics, must be sourced or should be removed. Tagging for citation commonly-found information, such as that available in an interview referenced in links-- as you appear to have done-- is inappropriate. Regards, -- LeflymanTalk 21:19, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello:

I'm not showing up on unrelated articles to create annoyances for editors, merely doing my bit to keep Wikipedia clean and free of detritus :o) That the annoyance coincides with the good work being done is merely fortuitous, rather than intended.

Thank you also for the heads up on the usage of citations, I'm well aware of how that now works - some of the information you have referenced isn't actualy available in those interviews. Cheers! Pinkboy 21:27, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


 * That you call annoyance created by your efforts "fortuitous", and that you've now showed up on two unrelated articles, after I edited Terry Shannon-- the only connection for which is that I started them-- demonstrates that you're tiptoeing into Wikistalking-territory. Please consider putting your energies to better use. Regards, -- LeflymanTalk 21:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Leflyman, since you referenced Wikistalking you must also have read the entry on userspace harassment immediately below. "Placing numerous false or questionable 'warnings' on a user's talk page.... [it is not] intended as a 'wall of shame' and should not be used to display supposed problems with the user unless the account has been blocked as a result of those issues."  In addition, Precedents/examples of note makes clear that a pattern of following an editor to unrelated articles is required, yet you have complained on a user talk page immediately after a single edit of a single article, which contravenes Good Faith.  Further, you immediately followed your alleged Wikistalker to Talk:Amazon (TV series) and left a comment that could be viewed as being provocative when read on the heels of your Wikistalking accusation.  Timeline at Special:Contributions/Leflyman and Special:Contributions/Pinkboy on Feb 26 18:00-22:00 UTC.  On balance, you do not appear to be an innocent victim of anything definable as harassment.

Hey Leflyman,

Please re-read the definition of Wikistalking. Carefully. "With the intent of causing annoyance or distress to another contributor." I have just specifically stated that annoyance has not been my intent, and I would be interested in how you would like to prove malice in a virtual medium such as this. Secondly, "This does not include checking up on an editor to fix errors," errors which you have admitted were in your original piece that I prompted you to correcting. You may wish to be a little less sensitive to others editing your work! As for my energies, do not worry - I am finding and editing errors in, and sloppy entries on, Wikipedia! What better use of my time could there be? Pinkboy 21:48, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Tcsboston.pdf
Thanks for uploading Image:Tcsboston.pdf. 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.

Fair use rationale for Image:Terryshannon.jpg

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 fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
