Chithra Ramakrishnan
Can you take a look at this article again? I know that you tagged it db-copyvio earlier, but it is back, and the original author claims he is improving it. I still see no notability, but he removed my speedy tag. I reinserted it, which I probably should not have done. The fact that he is a media consultant really bothers me---is he using Wikipedia to advertise on behalf of a client? If so, db-spam would be appropriate. Or, should I take it to AfD? I'd really like your opinion, if you have a moment. Thanks. ---Charles 15:41, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, in the meantime, CharlotteWebb has taken it to AfD Articles for deletion/Chithra Ramakrishnan, just in case you are interested in expressing an opinion. ---Charles 16:00, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

I apologize for my error. I just created a stub for a link I needed in an article I am writing. I was not aware that even a phrase is a copyright violation. I can and will rephrase it so that there is no copyright infringement.

Thank you for editing "List of best selling video games"
I've been monitoring video game sales at my spare time and really like the refined works you contributed on this page. I tried to help a bit by updating NDS and Sega's platinum titles (2 Sonic ones without logging in..^^") in recent hours and notice you efficiently enhance the reference and other games. This is truly awesome quality- hands down!!

PS. I post my appreciation here as I feel a bit overwhelmed to read through and participate the talk page of "List of best selling video games" (I read only 60% of all the discussion war...XD). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Starkawa (talk • contribs) 22:03, 8 December 2006 (UTC).

Re: Using an external editor
I'm assuming you're on a Unix or Unix-like system. If so, try making sure your TMPDIR environmental is properly set, for example try starting firefox on the shell this way:

TMPDIR=/tmp firefox &

If this solves the problem, you may have to initialize the variable in, e.g.: if [ -z "$TMPDIR" ] then export TMPDIR="/usr/tmp/$LOGNAME" [ ! -e "$TMPDIR" ] && mkdir $TMPDIR fi [ -e "$TMPDIR" ] && chmod go-rwx $TMPDIR

 * Hello there. I notice you did a change, and I [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_best-selling_computer_and_video_games&diff=next&oldid=92443521 reverted back] with an explanation. The given reference for FFX sales (www.gamespot.com/ps2/rpg/finalfantasy10/news.html?sid=2843955) states Square has announced that sales of Final Fantasy X have reached the 4 million mark, meeting company expectations. There is another reference, the one you say, that points to www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=76588, but this article is used as a reference to Populous, FFX. I will replace the FFX reference with the Populous one, so that we can update FFX sales to 5 m. Thanks for pointing that out. -- ReyBrujo 16:32, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

The picture
Although that policy is explicit, Wikipedia is dedicated to providing the best info possible to the masses. In order to achieve that goal, such rules as WP:IAR are in place. They are there for a reason.

I understand your reasons behind putting up the GNU image, but when the best possible is being used under a fair use copyright, why can't we use it?

Btw, I mean no disrespect or hostility in this post. I've just had a long day and I came from reading this and this.  S h a r k f a c e  2 1 7  05:25, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

List of best-selling video game consoles
Hi,

You obviously know a lot about how Wikipedia works. I want to update the sales figures for the Nintendo DS and GBA with the data I found and collected, but I want to do it right. It was time consuming to do so and the figures are accurate and reliable, so I don't simply want to remove and forget about them. I thought putting it on the Talk Page would be acceptable, but it seems that it is not. I would move it to the actual article page, but as you can see it is a lot of info and would make the article messy. I suppose I could simply add each one as a reference at the bottom, however I don't think putting 10+ reference tags on a single line would be acceptable (or very presentable) either. How would you recommend I go about doing this? On my Talk Page you mentioned creating a reference page, however I do not know how to do that. Any help you can give would be appreciated. Thanks!

Fair Use Talk
I have left more responses to your comments on Wikipedia talk:Elimination of Fair Use Rationale in Promotional Photos/Vote Hackajar 01:10, 25 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Our five pillars disagree with you. We strive for verifiability, free content, neutral point of view, good behaviour, etc. As far as I know, featured content is not a policy we must follow. We do not focus on highest possible quality encylopedia, although of course, it is nice. That is for Encyclopædia Britannica, where every article could be considered a Featured article here. An image that identifies the subject is enough, even if slightly blurry. The last time I checked the browser window it said "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia", not "Wikipedia, the highest possible quality encyclopedia".

And by the way, while free is better than fair, for some situations where creating a free version of an existing copyrighted one would demand excessive effort that cannot be easily attained, I agree with including Fair use images. But promotional pictures do not come to my mind when thinking about something "non repeatable". -- ReyBrujo 02:53, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The existance of Fair Use Images section of WP:FU contradicts both Five pillars and your above statements no? So where does that leave us? Hackajar 05:02, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree that images must be replace, although I don't like thought of image being used in complience with WP:FU is delete because of the statistical possibility that there may be a free alternative availible. What bothers me is users speedy deletion of an image, claiming a free alternative is available, but not providing proof free image exists!Hackajar 05:44, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Lacuna Coil
The reason I reverted it is because originally that section was blanked by a vandal. Leyasu had reverted the vandalism, but due to his ban the nature of his edit was grossly overlooked.
