Please stop goofing around
Hello, I notice the "three" of you: seem to be playing around on Tjpravetz's user page and RfA page. So far, there hasn't been any recent vandalism, but the fake awards and joke RfA aren't cool, and I'm concerned you think this is some kind of game.

If you are here to contribute to the building of an encyclopedia, please see the welcome template I'm pasting right below this message. If you want to play, that's fine, of course (I'm not your mom), but please do it somewhere else. Tjpravetz, it would be a show of good faith (but not absolutely required) if you put db-user at the top of your RfA so an admin can delete it. And all three of you, it would be a show of good faith (but not absolutely required) if you acknowledged getting this message.

Finally, it's a little unclear whether you are three friends editing together, or one person goofing around with three accounts. In either case, it violates our policy on "sockpuppetry" and "meatpuppetry" for you to all vote in unison on the same RfA's, AfD's, etc., or to side with each other in discussions on article talk pages. If there are three of you, please avoid any hint of meatpuppetry by editing separate articles. If there's just one of you, please choose one account and just use that one.

Thanks. Here's the welcome message I promised. --barneca (talk) 02:16, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Blackbdflag.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Blackbdflag.gif. 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 15:14, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
