USMC
So it seems that photos from US military websites are public domain, and I can't see any reason why the US Marine Corps Commandant's Own Drum & Bugle Corps would be any exception. I was thinking, is there anything about the Commandant's Own in the article? They are, as far as I am aware, the only professional (true) drum and bugle corps in existence, with other professional organisations such as Star of Indiana's blast! and Cyberjam merely spin-offs of the activity. Maybe you or I could add a word or two about these. I think I will read through the article again and try to think of anything that has been omitted (to my knowledge). --Sbutler 10:56, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

And I was right, I have uploaded a good one overlooking DCI retreat 2002 showing the backs of the Commandant's Own as they played in the stands

I would like to invite you to join the newly formed WikiProject Drum Corps, a WikiProject for the expansion of all things drum corps. If you'd like, add your name to the list of members, and lend a hand in some of the things we have yet to do! There's plenty lying around, but even a small contibution is very welcome. Hope to see you lending your knowledge to our growing collection of drum corps articles! Mr Bound 18:51, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:04, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Emergency Planning Society
Hello Sbutler,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Emergency Planning Society for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=&action=edit&section=new&preload=Template:Hangon_preload&preloadtitle=This+page+should+not+be+speedy+deleted+because...+ contest this deletion], but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 01:49, 23 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you Barkeep49, I have contested the deletion at Talk:Emergency Planning Society though I understand why you tagged the article and invite any further comments you may have there. —Sbutler (talk) 11:22, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Any deficiencies should be remedied before reposting as they can lead to repeated deletions.

The new user tutorial can help you avoid future problems.
