Baja California
Thanks for the feedback. Actually, my "source" for Baja California is the Spanish language article, which doesn't have any sources either. Don't know what to do in that case. . . &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xabuneqis (talk &bull; contribs).

Esperanza Elections
Hello Rune! Thank you for supporting me in the ongoing Esperanza elections. Your trust in my actions means a lot, especially since I pretty much failed at being an admin coach! Don't worry: I'll find time to show you the path to the cabal headquarters... Anyways, thank you very much. Regards, Bratsch e talk 21:10, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

FLC note on my talk
Thank you! It is very kind of you. You would not believe me, but I dreamt something tonight about being a bit too harsh on the FLC comments :) And here I find your relaxing message... Phewww :) No wonder you are an important part of Esperanza. Renata 13:44, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Swedish football champions
Thanks! I've contacted the Swedish FA to check if they have any free license images of the trophy the champions get (Lennart Johansson's Trophy). That should surely be a suitable image to add to the article. It also looks like any non-art-image taken in Sweden before July 1, 1944 is in the public domain (see PD-Sweden) so I guess one or two photos of champions from the early years would be nice. -- Elisson • Talk 15:26, 21 February 2006 (UTC)


 * I've added the pictures and tagged the trophy picture with the appropriate tag and added a fair use rationale. Hope that is what you asked for. :) -- Elisson • Talk 19:36, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Admin Coaching
Hey! How's everything. You never told me if you had any questions about the lesson I gave you... so, was everything clear? Do you have any questions? Tito xd (?!? - help us) 05:53, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Copyrights
Well, usually, I would think that the next lesson encompasses copyright problems, but as you have corrected me in that aspect of Wikipolicy in the past, I don't know how much I could be of help in that. However, the process itself asks for copyright violations to be listed on Copyright problems. If you encounter a cut-and-paste copy of another commercial website (meaning, we have little chance of getting a release for the content), it is speediable if it has been uploaded within the last 48 hours, and then you have to warn the uploader with nothanks-sd.

As for your question, yes, there is a centralized log, and you already know about it: Just go to Special:Log, and type "Rune.welsh" in the User: field (if you want to see actions done to you, type User:Rune.welsh in the Page: field, including the User: prefix!). You will get a page that looks like this. This should have all your logs (page moves, blocks, protections, etc.) in one place. Any questions? Tito xd (?!? - help us) 07:28, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

Mopping
Interesting question. The thing I would have liked to know the most before being an admin would be how to actually do the admin tasks themselves. It took me a while to remember the difference between Special:Blockip and Special:Ipblocklist; also, I didn't know that while you have to block a user through Blockip, the only way you could unblock him was through Ipblocklist. That reminds me about another thing: if you're trying to see deleted edits, you look at the page's history, then click on the "View or restore &chi; deleted edits" box. Don't click on the delete or undelete tab, as it is not visible through there. Tito xd (?!? - help us) 23:00, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Hola
Acabo de leer tu mensaje. Desafortunadamente, hay tantas cosas que tengo que hacer ahora. ¡No creo que puedo quedarme en la Wikiepedia por mucho tiempo porque ahora tengo exámenes y mucho mas (o por lo menos, no puedo participar tan mucho Si, ya sé que crees que lo que digo es una excusa (y tal vez eso es la verdad)! :-). ¡Y recuerda, yo trabajo ahora también!

Why, thank you. I'm planning on doing this for every month, but due to recent complications I don't have much free time to edit on Wikipedia. A collaboration between the two of us would be an easier way to get this things done. Would you want to help me write March so it is ready before it comes around? I have to leave right now, and I probably won't be using the computer at all tomorrow so I will only be able to talk to you after Saturday. See ya!--Fito 00:31, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you very much, I have been crazy busy these lasy days and I have like 30 spare minutes at home before I go to bed. I'm glad the list was ready for the start of the month. I will probably have time in a couple of days to write about April and May.--Fito 02:48, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging for Image:Ignacio_Allende.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Ignacio_Allende.jpg. The image page currently doesn't specify who created the image, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created the image yourself then you need to indicate why we have the right to use the image on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the image yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the image also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture then you can use GFDL to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the image qualifies under Wikipedia's fair use guidelines, please read fair use, and then 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 want the image to be deleted, tag it as db-unksource.

If you have uploaded other images, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, 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 unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Peer review of Mexico metro
Hey, great awesome list! Gets my support right away :) But here is some ways to even be more awesome :) Conclusion: don't aks for my reviews :) If seriously, veeery nice. Waaaay better that London when it got promoted. So you get my support :) Renata 00:32, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Maps are really cool, and I think the main map could even go to WP:FPC, but there is this one little "but"... the balck background. Since it's png I assume Panchosama has it as svg and that would not be that hard to change it.
 * Also, on the maps every station has a little icon. Why don't have it separate and use to decorate every subway station entry? They are already created, just cut from the maps... And if it's really svg it will not be too hard to magnify. (more work for poor Panchosama...) I noticed that individual articles use gif and claim it as fair use. Would it be possible to have "free" alternatives?
 * I wonder if there is any photos of the acctual cars. Mexico City Metro has two. Any more?
 * I know that there is no space, but a reeeeeally nice touch would be the station name origin. I don't speak Spanish so it would be nice to know what it means.
 * There is a minor formatting glitch when pictures create a wide gap between introductory text and the table. I will find a solution myself.


 * I dream that your attention would shift one day to one of Lithuania related topics :P BTW, "Kind of a central place where to start working from" - that's really my definition of a really good list. I hope the images will play out well and you won't have to redo anything. Anyways, good luck. Renata 03:31, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Hey RuneWelsh,

I'm a complete newbie when it comes to Wiki editing, so I wasn't sure where to respond to the note you left on my talkpage; hope you get this one. Regarding your question, I'm not in Mexico City, but if you want info on those lines, you can take a look at my Google Earth map, where I have all of the stations located, and you can see which are above-ground or not, and it's fairly easy to tell which stations are elevated (ask me if you need help). Great work on the List of Stations page, btw.

Richardmtl 04:21, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Regarding the station names origins mentioned above, I could translate the info found on the STC site, if you need it (for each station).
 * I have all of the metro station logos cut out (that's how they appear in my Google Earth KMZ), but I'm not sure how to get them to be "free", as mentioned above. Any tips in regards to this would help, so that we can put them up. Also, I got all the images for the Xochimilco line, as well as the Metrobus stations, if you'd like (again, not sure about the proper licensing, though).
 * Any way we could communicate by email? I'd prefer it to here, because I'm still new and not sure if I'm able to dedicate much time to learning wiki editing, so I could just email you the pics or something, for example. Let me know!

Advise on image copyright
Hi Carnildo, I was hoping you could help me figuring out the proper copyright status of this image (Image:Metro system.png) before I send List of Mexico City metro stations to FLC. The problem here, is the use of the station logos in the map. Since they were created to identify the stations I'd assume it would not be a problem if they were distributed in this context, but then I only know so much about copyright law in the US...

Note that the layout itself is not a problem, since that's how the lines are actually laid on the city, and this is just a redrawing.

Many thanks! -- Run<font color="#339900">e Welsh | &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; 15:06, 25 February 2006 (UTC)


 * It looks good to me, although the image description page should have a note that the logos are not the creation of the author. My concern is the choice of font for the map: on a high-resolution monitor like mine, the lettering of the station names is almost unreadable. --Carnildo 00:42, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Congratulations!
Congratulations! It's my pleasure to let you know that, consensus being reached, you are now an administrator. You should read the relevant policies and other pages linked to from the administrators' reading list before carrying out tasks like deletion, protection, banning users, and editing protected pages such as the Main Page. Most of what you do is easily reversible by other sysops, apart from page history merges and image deletion, so please be especially careful with those.
