Re: Awaiting a verdict on the 3rd U.S. Infantry Regiment article
Actually, it means that I'm the project's most glorified paper-pusher; but we'll just ignore that point. ;-)

I have no problems with moving it to the official name of the unit; you may want to insert a footnote into the article after the name to indicate that it is, in fact, the correct order, so that future editors don't feel compelled to fix it. Personally, I think we should expand out the abbreviation (3rd United States Infantry Regiment), but I'll leave that up to your discretion. In the long term, I think we're going to have to try and come up with some actually usable guideline for how to name these articles, reconciling the use of official names with a sensible placement of "United States" when it's inserted for disambiguation purposes; but that's a rather broader issue.

 * Congrats on winning the war against inaccuracy! I'd been following the ongoing battle over the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment for months, but it always raised my blood pressure too much and I figured I'd wind up saying something that would get me banned, so I tried to stay away from it.  Props to you for sticking with it until a correct consensus was reached.  --ScreaminEagle 16:25, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, hopefully this title will prevail... it is Wikipedia, so it's not set in stone. I just wish that people could understand how important this stuff is to those of us who served, you know? Some people get so caught up in standards and formats that they don't want to look at things on a case-by-case basis. And then, these same people don't even bother to read explanations as to why things are this way, no matter how detailed those explanations may be. Thanks for the vote of confidence though, and thanks for your support on the discussion page too. Ryecatcher773 17:36, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Battle of Fallen Timbers
I have a question about this article and I was wondering if you had the answer. I've been going through and correcting the redirects/dabs for the 3d US Infantry to reflect the correct name and new correct article title. I came across this article and I'm afraid I don't know enough about that time period to make an accurate decision about the name inside the unit box. I'm assuming that 3d Infantry Regiment is the 3d U.S. Infantry Regiment (if not, then we have to find which regiment they're talking about and redirect it there) since it was in existence back then of course, but I'm not sure if it's appropriate to change the name to reflect the U.S. portion of the name. When did the 3d add the U.S. to its name? Was it during the Civil War or was it there from the beginning? If it didn't change until later, I'm tempted to leave the name in that article as is to reflect the name of the unit at that time. What are your thoughts? --ScreaminEagle 17:37, 7 November 2006 (UTC)


 * So far as I know, The Old Guard was still the 1st Regiment in 1794... which is to say that it wasn't the 3rd US Infantry yet... or even the 3rd Infantry. I know that the battle was fought in what is now part of Ohio, and that it seems likely that it was a militia regiment from somewhere near or garrisoned in the Northwest Territories would have supplied this particular occurrence of '3rd Regt.'. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I will look further and see if I can come back with a more substantial answer. Ryecatcher773 00:09, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

Ohio State Buckeyes football
Recently this article received a "peer review script" examination and mention was made of GA and FA status (Talk: Ohio State Buckeyes football). I invite you to help complete the article and with a little luck and hard work maybe someone will take notice and nominate it for FA (I am not into self-nom for reasons your own "statement of purpose" makes clear). Even if that doesn't happen, the quality of the article itself will improve and make it a showcase for Buckeye football. The history from 1975 to the present is lacking, and in particular we need enthusiastic but encyclopedic writers for the Cooper and Tressl eras. Ultimately I think the History of Ohio State Football will become a main article in its own right. My goal is to get the article "completed" (but far from "finished") by January 8. If you can help, please do, and GO BUCKS. --Buckboard 06:57, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Angband and disambiguation
I understand what Stemonitis is getting at with regards to his questioning what should be disambiguated. However, I whole heartedly dispute his claim that the game Angband is more relevant in current usage than the place named in Tolkien's work. Although no one else from the game article camp seems to be weighing in on the debate, it would seem that a poll may be needed to reach an agreement. Yes, I realize that in the scope of things, that this is completely a matter of minutiae, but to those of us who have spent the majority of their life (which is, in my case, about 28 of 35 years) reading, researching and studying Tolkien's work as well as the analysis and criticism thereof, I find the issue quite irritating and borderline offensive. The game in question isn't even a game licensed for sale from what I can tell. It's a low-fi game done by someone with a basic knowledge of how to code, on par with what someone might create for a 100-level college computer programming class final project. I'd be surprised to find that any permission was even asked for (or granted) by Tolkien's estate to use the name Angband for the game. And there is a debate on its importance/relevance on Wikipedia? Not to mention versus one of the greatest writers of the 20th century? Ryecatcher773 18:12, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


 * In case I wasn't clear, I do agree that Angband should be what's currently at Angband (Middle-earth). Honestly I wouldn't mind the status quo either (using a dab page with both listed). The point of contention is "What are people more likely to be looking for?", and there is no easy answer to that in this case.
 * Being a Tolkien scholar, would you help expand the article? I have read The Silmarillion but I am sure it appears in the Histories also. It's probably in The Children of Hurin also (which I own but have not read yet!). --Fang Aili talk 19:17, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

Request for mediation
A request for mediation has been filed with the Mediation Committee that lists you as a party. The Mediation Committee requires that all parties listed in a mediation must be notified of the mediation. Please review the request at Requests for mediation/3rd US Infantry, and indicate whether you agree or disagree to mediation. If you are unfamiliar with mediation on Wikipedia, please refer to Mediation. Please note there is a seven-day time limit on all parties responding to the request with their agreement or disagreement to mediation. Thanks,  Daniel  05:16, 30 September 2007 (UTC)


 * If you agree to mediation, I only ask that you demand my mandatory joinder as a party, as I see the caller's (1) failure to include me and (2) failure to include my talk page CMH citation showing the 19th century use/approval of 3rd United States Infantry Regiment by the general in command of the Army at the time as forming the basis of any allegation against you of NPOV violation. If you agree to mediation but cannot effect my inclusion, then feel free to look up and use the CMH source I cited on the article talk page. Hotfeba 23:55, 30

It's fairly short, it adheres to current MILHIST style, and it does not require changes to that style for agreement. Unless I am mistaken, this in combination with the citations from AR 600-82, AR 220-1, AR 220-5, and The Army of the United States (1896) are persuasive. Hotfeba 06:37, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Cleveland
I thought that "Jew" could signify ethnicity or religious affiliation while "Judaism" specifically referred to the religion? Robert K S (talk) 23:28, 21 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I just added a bit on that to the discussion page on the Cleveland article. Ethnic Jewry has mixed contexts, and is debatable accordingly. In any case, the Jewish community in the Cleveland area is overwhelmingly located in the suburbs, not in the city (the article mentions 'substantial' ethnic populations. Ryecatcher773 (talk) 23:38, 21 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, I can't disagree with that. I've never known any inner-city Jews here. Robert K S (talk) 03:11, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for supporting my argument. The irony is, when there was one, the Jewish community in Cleveland (particularly in Glenville) was quite distinguished. Another sign of the times, however: even the Jews in Cleveland Heights particularly along S.Taylor Road, has started to move further out -- Lax & Mandel's, a cornerstone of local Jewish bakeries for years (and of national fame to boot), has relocated a few miles to the northeast, to South Euclid just in the past year. I don't think User:LooDog will care much though -- he's not even a Clevelander from what I can see from his user page.

FYI, you're seeing addresses on the Heights pop up as being in Cleveland due to an old ZIP Code format that included some of the border suburbs as being part of the city for some reason -- South Euclid, where I grew up, is 44121, which shares a splinter of a border with the city and also comes up as Cleveland.

 * Yeah a picnic for sure, but if Tiki shows up, I wouldn't eat the potato salad he brings. ;-)


 * I'm not sure if the current move has gone unnoticed or not.. so I'm taking a wait and see approach. I'm not sure why it's really so hard for people to understand that not everything can be forced into a standard format (or,why it's so hard to read the history documented on the talk page first, before making moves). We'll just have to wait and see I reckon.Ryecatcher773 (talk) 00:19, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi Ryecatcher773 – Thanks for your response re Thomas. Having looked at the recent history, I do wonder if we may indeed be taking on too much!

Greater Cleveland
I noticed the Project Cleveland now has been broadened to Greater Cleveland. Have we definied the limits? I'm thinking of some of the articles I edit that are Kent-related. Kent is in one of the broader definitions of Greater Cleveland, but it being from here, we usually differentiate between here and the "Cleveland area" even though downtown Cleveland is all of 45 minutes from Kent. I was thinking if we did, then the Kent, Ohio and Kent State University articles could work. If not, I understand that as well! --JonRidinger (talk) 21:09, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't have a problem with it, so I'll add them. In the broad sense of the Cleveland area, Kent falls into the Cleveland CSA and Media Market.

 * South Euclid has definitely seen better days, but that's really a product of location and demographics. The entire area is having difficulty.  I live quite close to Dairy King and have even walked there - although I now have to avoid Francis Court after my dog was attacked by two rotweillers.  The S. E. McDonald's was rebuilt because of a requirement made by the company on the franchisee.  Efforts are being made to improve the area.  There's an ambitious plan to spruce up the Cedar-Lee area in Cleveland Heights.  Cedar Center North was torn down and is now being rebuilt (CC South was replaced a few years ago and there's a nice Whole Foods Market there).  Deteriorated housing is being torn down and replaced with community gardens - an eyesore a few lots down from me was torn down this past spring.  But it remains to be seen whether these efforts will amount to much.  I believe a lot of this will depend on the long term price of gasoline, which may encourage people to migrate back closer to the city.  There is also a lot of talk of consolidation under the new Cuyahoga County plan.  For example, Pepper Pike, Orange, Woodmere and Moreland Hills are considering consolidating into one city.  The same has been discussed for South Euclid as outlined here:  As for myself, I like South Euclid, and I will probably stay here as long as I remain in Ohio.  The location and price of housing work for my needs.  The question for me is: how long do I stay in Ohio?THD3 (talk) 17:19, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Armour Square, Chicago
(This was clear before. Armour Square is both th ename of a neighborhood and the larger area as defined by the city. Ever been here?) Armour Square, Chicago The Community area are not to be confused with the neighborhoods and should not be combined as the same feature. community areas collect census data like population and demographics and neighborhoods that area about colture. They are represented by two different maps and boundaries. you can view the area boundaries here just customize the legend to show Community Development areas, that is why I edited the article. The community areas get their names from the local neighborhoods but do not represent the same thing. I will re edit the article to represent the community area not the neighborhood. A separate section or article should be created to represent the neighborhood. thanks --Nickvet419 (talk) 03:23, 20 November 2011 (UTC)
 * also wanted to address this "(rv: Stateway Gardens is long gone, and like Wentworth, it is/was a CHA property, not a neighborhood and WG is mostly in Bronzeville. Bridgeport is a separate neighborhood to the west, and the South Loop is not part of Armour Square.)" All of these overlap and fall within the Armour Square boundaries. Stateway Gardens is still defined as a neighborhood. WG falls mostly in Douglas and borders Bronsville. Bridgeport community area borders Armour Square but Bridgeport Neighborhood takes up most of Armour Square Community area. and South Loop takes up a portion of the northern Armour square area. and yes I live in chicago, and have work on many mapping projects of the city.--Nickvet419 (talk) 04:07, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

hmm... what an attack? Is that really needed? Is Wikipedia about personal opinions or facts? I think facts. and the fact is... Community areas were created to have defined areas to chart census data of population and demographics and the articles should reflect that. The neighborhoods themselves should have their own articles as they reflect on the culture of the area and are defined by different boundaries. Armour Square is defined by the city as a community area, and people who live there can clearly say they are from Armour Square, yes. As well as people say they are from the Bridgeport community area. That is fine. But the neighborhood boundaries defined by the City of Chicago are different than the community areas. This is why the neighborhood articles should reflect the neighborhood boundaries and the community area articles should reflect census data and the community area boundaries defined by the City. --Nickvet419 (talk) 07:45, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Pipeworks Brewing


A tag has been placed on Pipeworks Brewing requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:RussanRiverBrewingLogo.jpg


A tag has been placed on File:RussanRiverBrewingLogo.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag.

Orphaned non-free media (File:RussanRiverBrewingLogo.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:RussanRiverBrewingLogo.jpg. 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 '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.

 * Thanks for the note; I clicked the wrong button. The file description page bore two different deletion templates: the F5 about which Hazard-Bot warned you, and db-f1, because it was a duplicate of File:RussianRiverBC.jpg.  If you've looked carefully at our speedy deletion templates, you may have seen that they have "delete" links for admins that, when clicked, provide a complete deletion rationale for the speedy criterion that the template mentions; I apparently clicked the link on the orphaned-fair-use-image template instead of the one on the duplicate-image template.  I've now undeleted it and redeleted it under the correct criterion.  Nyttend (talk) 01:00, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

You may not be aware that everything in the WP:LEAD is suppose to be in the main body. When it is not, you should take corrective action to make sure that it is. It is not the other way around.

David Molk -- Good Article
Greetings, Ryecatcher. I'm a regular WP:CFB editor who often works on All-American college football player biographies. The David Molk article is on my watch list, and I've been following the deletion and reversions by you and Tony. The article was already a Good Article, and per WP:LEAD, the lead section should be expected to fairly summarize the contents of the entire article. The bare bones so-called "NFL standard" lead is inadequate for GA purposes. That having been said, it was not a perfect lead and could be pared and better organized. If you and Tony will give me 24 hours, I'll take a crack at paring it and improving it, while leaving something behind that still satisfies the GA standards. Thanks.

Chicago monuments
Hey there fellow Chicago fan, I noticed you chimed in on the conversation on how to improve the Chicago article. I was hoping you could help me clean up the monuments and public art section. As discussed on the talk page, we want to remove the less notable monuments and rewrite the section using prose. You live in Chicago so perhaps you'd be familiar with these monuments and can pinpoint which ones are notable? I am fascinated by Chicago but live in New York so I haven't a clue. If you want to just simply narrow down the list I'll work on the prose part. Thanks! &mdash; MusikAnimal talk 02:27, 7 May 2013 (UTC)

Stadium Mustard
Hi, I'm an OTRS volunteer, and am writing to you because you have made significant recent contributions to Stadium Mustard. I have reproduced on Talk:Stadium Mustard (with permission) an email sent to OTRS from the president of the company, requesting that clarifications and corrections made to the article. I have also received a suggested revision for the article, reproduced in my sandbox at User:Amatulic/sandbox, which probably isn't appropriate for replacement, but material from that could be incorporated.

In addition, I have received copies (graphic scans) of sources from some notable publications, which I can't upload to Wikipedia, but could forward to you by email if you're willing to help out updating this article. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:59, 28 June 2013 (UTC)


 * (moved from Talk:Amatulic to avoid conversing in two places)


 * Hey, I read your note and the revision you wrote in the sandbox, but I gotta be honest: this doesn't match up with any of the cited history that I've read on the article, and I've been consuming the stuff on hot dogs for over 40 years, and it just started appearing in Chicago area stores (sparsely) in the past decade, with the same home address on the bottle (an Ohio address)as the ones thaey sell in supermarkets in Cleveland. Until all the history of the company and the mustard can be disproven, I'd be hesitant to accept what your sources are claiming. Ryecatcher773 (talk) 06:19, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I didn't write the version in my sandbox. That was provided by the owner of Stadium Mustard. I put it there to serve as a guide for modifying the article. The sandbox article does have sources, and additional sources were supplied to me via email, which I have yet to examine. ~Amatulić (talk) 14:39, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

The Deer Hunter
Hi Ryecatcher. I just noticed that 4 months ago you reverted a change I made to The Deer Hunter. Your comment said "This is a WP article, not an OpEd piece". I was not inserting my personal opinion, the words I added were a direct quote from the article by Biskind which was cited. Before my edit, the wikipedia page just said that there was a heated debate, which seemed rather uninformative - when I read that, I wanted to know what the nature of the debate was. So I looked up the article, and inserted its wording "—was it meant ironically or not, as a critique of patriotism or a paean to it?". I'd like to reinsert the explanatory quote, please let me know if you think there is a specific problem with that, or if you think it should be done in a different way. Would it help to put quotation marks around it? Reasoned skeptic (talk) 22:07, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

The Deer Hunter Main Character Ethnicity
The main characters of the Deer Hunter are Ukrainian, not Russian. Steven's wedding takes place in a Ukrainian Orthodox Church, with a Ukrainian Orthodox priest, and traditional Ukrainian Orthodox hymns, sung in Ukrainian. The reception takes place in a Ukrainian American Citizens club with a banner stating this clearly on the wall behind the stage on the first floor. In reality this took place in the Lemko Club in Cleveland, so the Director/Set Designers took special precautions to ensure that they were Ukrainian. When the party is dancing, they dance traditional Ukrainian Dances such as the Kolomeika and Hopak. Whenever they drink in the movie, they exclaim "Nazdarovya!", the Ukrainian way of saying "Cheers!". When Steven is pulled out of the bar, the woman (presumably his mother) calls him a "Drurak!" which means fool or idiot in Ukrainian. Ukrainians have been fighting to stop their seemingly never ending confusion with Russians for centuries, and this article is one of thousands of examples of this happening. I simply seek recognition for what is right and true, this is an encyclopedia after all, shouldn't it contain the correct information? BytorsSnowdog (talk) 12:18, 9 July 2014 (UTC)

Richard M. Daley
Thanks for providing the source. It's a good thing Wikipedia has strict rules about biographies of living persons and specifically about religious identification (see WP:BLPCAT and particularly read the criteria for inclusion in a category). That's why William J. Murray, who became famous for being an atheist, cannot now be identified as an atheist on Wikipedia. Take a good look at Category:American Roman Catholics, or any religious category for that matter. At any given time about 10-30% of people in the category are not sourced as currently identifying as RC. It was close to 50% before a few editors started pruning it. Some were placed in the category simply because they had Italian or Hispanic last names. Sundayclose (talk) 18:31, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

Half Acre Beer Company
Greetings, Ryecatcher773. Thanks for your recent contributions to the Half Acre Beer Company article. As to whether or not the Balmoral Avenue brewery has started actual production, I did go to the brewery website. It says that the Balmoral brewery was built in 2015, and that "Half Acre is able to grow relative to its own creative ambition," and so on. I was looking for something a little more explicit, either there or on their Facebook page -- something along the lines of, "We're excited to say that our first batch is finished and will be hitting stores next week." But, you seem pretty confident that the new place is up and running. So, how do you know that? I'm asking this informally, not demanding that you produce a reference from Chicago magazine or anything. — Mudwater (Talk) 02:01, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

5 Rabbit Cervecería
Hello! Thanks for your work on the 5 Rabbit Cervecería article, and your comment on the AfD. About this, the connection is that The Wieners Circle also had a Trump-related food product. It's mentioned in their article. Whether or not that merits a "see also" is another question. — Mudwater (Talk) 01:52, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

Question regarding the USA designation
Yes. Absolutely yes. If we can leave off information from the intro because it's in the infobox, why bother providing the county or the state? Why bother mentioning the population? The intro is supposed to be a summary of the rest of the article; in an article about a physical location, what could be a more basic detail than the country in which it's located? Occasional articles use a different format, as you note, but "X County, State, United States" is the format that's almost always used, and there's normally no good reason to deviate from it.

Re IP edits
I noticed you reverted a series of IP edits at OSU - it's the sock of a blocked user from way back, worth keeping an eye on (about 85% of what he does is fine but 15% is weird and suspect) - a bit more background here and here. JohnInDC (talk) 14:56, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Help with Congressional Institute?
Hi Ryecatcher! I'm writing because I see that you're an active member of WikiProject Politics. I'm looking for editors who might be interested in helping me update the article for the Congressional Institute—a group that organizes the annual retreat for Republican members of Congress and sponsors the Congressional Art Competition, among other things. I have drafted an updated and expanded article on behalf of the Institute as part of my work with Beutler Ink. That draft is here, but there is more explanation about it in my Talk page note here. Due to my COI I won't edit the article directly, so I'm looking for neutral editors to review this draft. Thanks for your time! Heatherer (talk) 14:04, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Kyrie Irving trade
Hi Ryecatcher773 ,

I understand that the trade has been confirmed by most major news outlets. However, it is Wikipedia policy to wait for official reports from the teams involved. See WikiProject_Sports/Handling_sports_transactions. There have been cases where trades were confirmed, but were later invalidated, or were due to false reporting.

Disambiguation link notification for October 9
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Beachwood, Ohio, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page New York ([//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Beachwood%2C_Ohio check to confirm] | [//toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Beachwood%2C_Ohio?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Help with photos?
A major reason for my commenting at Talk:Cleveland was to see if I could get a response from someone in the Cleveland area, so thank you :-) I see that Commons:Special:Contributions/Ryecatcher773 is almost empty, but if you have a camera and some time to drive, could you try to help with a project of mine?  For the last three years, I've been working on illustrating all municipalities and townships in Ohio, and it's now 98% done (just 42 places remain out of 2,352 places), but as I don't live in Ohio anymore, it's rather hard to work on it now.  My project page is User:Nyttend/Ohio; from there you can see that all of the counties with any un-illustrated locations either border Cuyahoga County or border the bordering counties.  If you could contribute, it would be quite helpful.  Nyttend (talk) 00:17, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the response note. I, too, used to be in the area some; Cuyahoga County's done because I got pictures for all remaining communities a year ago, but I've since transferred to an in-town doctor because they're closer than my former doctors at the Cleveland Clinic.  Do you know any active editors in northeast Ohio?  Nyttend (talk) 13:11, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Pipeworks Brewing.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Pipeworks Brewing.jpg. 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. --B-bot (talk) 18:32, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Edit warring
Your recent editing history at Beachwood, Ohio shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ~Anachronist (talk) 08:04, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:KingsAlternateLogo 95-96.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:KingsAlternateLogo 95-96.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
