Tim Kask
Hi there. :) I'm the guy who started the Tim Kask article originally. After working on Gary Gygax's bio, I realized how important Kask was to D&D, so I figured he needed an article here - why not. :) If you are getting this info from a published source (other than the man's own input), it would help if you could point to the book or website so that we can show it comes from a reliable source. If not, well, do your best - it's kind of like being in school again, "show you work". :) Thanks for the contributions and if you enjoy fixing up that bio, why not stick around for awhile! BOZ (talk) 22:34, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

HI BOZ, thanks for your comments. I do indeed hope to improve this article (if I can). I even send a message to Drilnoth prior to getting your message. I probably should have sent one to you as well. I'm obviously new to wiki and was asked to help put this bio up here by Tim.

See Drilnoth's talk for some comments I made there.

Regards,

Rhuvein. Rhuvein (talk) 21:35, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with File:Rob Kuntz pic.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Rob Kuntz pic.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

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

This is an automated notice by STBotI. For assistance on the image use policy, see Media copyright questions. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 02:54, 26 March 2009 (UTC) ..

I added the non-free promo tag to the image file. Rhuvein (talk) 17:29, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:C&Clogo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:C&Clogo.gif. You've indicated that the image meets Wikipedia's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 22:48, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Copyedit request
Hi there. Would you be interested in doing some copyediting/clean-up on the article System of a Down? It's a bit of a mess right now, especially in regards to its citations, and could use some work. (Ibaranoff24 (talk) 10:22, 2 April 2009 (UTC))

Howdy. I'm involved in several D&D projects/updates and am pretty much full up. I'd like to help but don't have the time right. Sorry ~ good luck.

Speedy deletion of File:CnClogo.gif
A tag has been placed on File:CnClogo.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. –Drilnoth (T • C) 02:28, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi Dril. Sorry, can't recall if this was my upload or another's. No problemo. I believe the current image for this article is cool!

Rhuvein (talk) 03:28, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Hello Rhuvein
How's it going. I noticed that you are a member of the Guild of Copyeditors. I was wondering if you wouldn't mind taking a look at my lasest FAC Han Dynasty. The prose needs some tweaking if the article is to pass its nomination. Thanks if you are able to copyedit a bit. Cheers.-- Pericles of Athens  Talk 02:17, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

. ..

It's going well, thanks. Heh, I think you have way more experience at this than I do, Pericles of Athens. While I've done copywriting and editing of IT manuals during my career, I'm still quite the "newbie" here at Wikipedia.

And, at the time, I'm pretty busy with my little projects for Dungeons & Dragons. So, thanks for the offer and sorry I can't help right now.

(Was a history major at college, specializing in classical Greek and Roman history - and so enjoyed my studies of Pericles. And while in Athens some years ago, I though much of him while walking atop and around the Acropolis).

Regards,

Copyedit Backlog Elimination Drive
Hi, as a member of the Guild of Copy Editors you're hereby notified of and invited to participate in the WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/May 2010. Please help us eliminate the 8,000+ copyedit backlog! Participating editors will receive barnstars and other awards, according to their level of participation. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 00:18, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Grab some glory, and a barnstar
Hi, I'd like to invite you to participate in the Guild of Copy Editors July 2010 Backlog Elimination Drive. In May, about 30 editors helped remove the tag from 1175 articles. The backlog is still over 7500 articles, and extends back to the beginning of 2008! We really need your help to reduce it. Copyediting just a couple articles can qualify you for a barnstar. Serious copyeditors can win prestigious and exclusive rewards. See the event page for more information. And thanks for your consideration. ɳorɑfʈ Talk! 15:18, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Timothy J Kask photo.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Timothy J Kask photo.jpg. 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. Eeekster (talk) 22:25, 22 September 2010 (UTC)

File copyright problem with File:TimJKask2011.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:TimJKask2011.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log].

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Armbrust WrestleMania XXVII  Undertaker 19–0  19:01, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Frank Mentzer2011.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Frank Mentzer2011.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

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 File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —Bkell (talk) 16:31, 17 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Bkell . . I received the request via an internet message board (Dragonsfoot) where I am a moderator and Frank is a guest member. Anyway, I have asked him to send an email to wiki per your recommendation.


 * Rhu. :-D


 * Also, if the image gets deleted before you can get the permissions fixed, let me know and I can restore it once everything is straightened out. :)  (talk) 23:56, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Thanks much, BOZ! :-D
 * Update: This image was apparently deleted from WikiCommons recently, presumably for the problem identified above. It was a great shot of Frank, so if you could get Frank to send that email as stated so that BOZ can get the file un-deleted, the article would be stronger with the photo's inclusion. I ran into the same problem with a photo of Lorraine Williams--the owner of the photo copyright never did send an email to WikiCommons indicating agreement to publish it under free license. Without that email, the photo was eventually deleted. There are other photos of Frank taken by fans, and we could likely easily find someone to grant permission for public usage, but they do not have the same quality as this deleted photo.Guinness323 (talk) 18:53, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:C&Clogo.gif
Thanks for uploading File:C&Clogo.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 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. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 11:27, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
