Orphaned fair use image (Image:Google logo1.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Google logo1.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is 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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --Durin 21:03, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Fair use image use
Fair use images are not permitted to be used outside of the main article namespace. Please see the policy at Fair use criteria item #9. This includes userboxes. Thus, the use of a copyrighted image on a userbox does not clear it of being orphaned. Further, the image may not be used on the userbox. I have reverted your re-insertion of these copyrighted images onto these non-main article namespace pages. If you have questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. Thank you, --Durin 23:48, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

AutoWikiBrowser
Thank you for your recent application to use AutoWikiBrowser. Regrettably, I have declined your request as you do not have 500 mainspace edits. You are welcome to apply again at a later time. Feel free to contact me with any questions, alphachimp  19:20, 29 January 2007 (UTC)`

I suggest you change the external link to WikiProject Huston to a wikilink ;-) Happy Editing by  Snowolf (talk) on  19:24, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I've fixed it for you ;-) Anyway, just use this syntax  LINK  oppure  display text . BTW, I've removed the two categories you've added: this is a talk page ;-). For further syntax help, see here and Here.
 * If you have any problems or simple questions, feel free to ask them on my talk page ;-)

Taj Mahal
Thanks for your comments on the Taj Mahal - making redirects doesn't usually need any consultation - just Be Bold and do it. On another note, are you sure you mean impotent where your user page says "[the flower] points out some of my impotent links." - did you mean important? --Joopercoopers 13:50, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Userpage protection
Userpage protection (and protection to any kind of page here on wikipedia) can be made only by Administrators, and it's done only what it's strictly necessary, usually for vandalism.

Header
Hmmm... your header looks oddly familiar * cough cough *. Now you are giving lessons on how to do it? I learned how to do that mostly by myself and with a little help from Darknesslord and Andonico. I find it funny that everyone has been using my header. I never said anything to anyone untill I saw that you were giving lessons on how to create it. So I thought I might just mention all that. -- γι α τί   Sign Here  |  ESP.  23:37, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Left-handed issues
On perusing ur workings I noticed that ü spend considerable time on reversions and repairing acts of vandalism. Left-handed issues is an informed commentary with humour. I will iterate it appropriately in future. But humour just felt like the appropriate point of departure. Did you know that humour is scientifically proven as the best teaching and learning tool? Humour also aids memory and re-access of encoded information. I am going to provide references. I hope with sincere inSINcerity I gave u a kick-arse smile!

It is perfectly alright to say no, but If you'd like, I can adopt you. You seem like you have a good handle on things, but perhaps as a more experienced Wikipedian I can offer you some assistance. Let me know what you think. Cheers, Dar-Ape 04:35, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Archiving
Well, as far as I can tell, your messages are being archived to both the first and second boxes, being User talk:Tbone55/Archive/01 and User talk:Tbone55/Archive/all, respectively. Would you like Werdnabot to only archive to one instead? Dar-Ape 20:33, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

Your VandalProof Application
Dear Tbone55,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.  Daniel.Bryant  02:44, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Re this comment saying "another vandal" gives the unfortunate possiblity that you are implying Vintagekits is also a vandal. I presume you meant merely "a vandal". If so, it might be an idea to correct the wording. Tyrenius 23:20, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Fair use image use
Three times now I have removed fair use images from User:Tbone55/wiki/UBS/oldschoolgoogle. I informed you on January 5 2007 that the use of such images on non-main namespace articles is not permitted per Fair use criteria item #9. Please stop adding fair use images to such pages as above. If you continue to willfully violate this policy, you will be temporarily blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, I'd be happy to answer. However, continuing in this manner is not the appropriate way to respond. Thank you, --Durin 18:39, 27 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Apologies, I was just being dumb. If you could, would you point me in the direction of a fair use image of a google related product.


 * Thank you -->  •Tbon  e  55  •  ''(Talk) (Contribs) (UBX) (Autograph Book)  00:32, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
 * ANY fair use image is not permitted on templates. I think what you are after are free license images. There are no free license images of Google logos; by definition Google logos have rights retained by Google. Does this help? If not, just ask. --Durin 02:53, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Signature
I'm glad to hear you figured that out. No offense taken, it is just my personal preference to have a simple signature that only links to my user and talk pages. I don't mind other styles, but I like to keep mine spare. However, as I was looking at your sig, it does seem a bit longer that is usually deemed acceptable. For reference, Signatures recommends not having more than 200 characters in your sig, and you currently employ 485. You may want to simplify yours a bit, but that of course doesn't mean taking away its individuality. Dar-Ape 03:49, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

Model Minority article
Hi, I was working on editing the Model Minority article and noticed that you reverted my changes.

The changes I made were NOT vandalism. Instead, I was trying to add depth to this article by pointing out one of the side effects of the model minority image: the growing number of Asian Americans committing white collar crimes. I have cited two pertinent examples of highly accomplished, high achieving Asian Americans who were implicated in white collar criminal activities.

My contributions to the Model Minority article are helpful: I have added insight into how one of the consequences of the model minority image is the downplaying of white collar criminal activity among Asian Americans in high paying, highly prestigious jobs. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.104.87.39 (talk) 22:22, 3 March 2007 (UTC).

Template sig
Actually, sigs in templates should not be used: these are an unnecessary drain on the servers and they are also a target for vandalism. In general, though, if you want to transclude a page somewhere, type,  , etc. Let me know if you have any other questions about sigs or transclusion. Dar-Ape 23:11, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Your answer is...
Incorrect. Even if my favorite color was orange and you said that my favorite color is orange, you would be incorrect. This is a BIG hint. --Cremepuff222 ( talk,  sign book ) 23:56, 3 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Nope. --Cremepuff222  ( talk,  sign book ) 23:59, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

You seem to have read my mind or something, because I was seriously considering to make a blue one. I started it a while back, but it's not even close to being finished. :) --Cremepuff222  ( talk,  sign book ) 00:06, 4 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Go ahead. Be sure to copy and paste everything, because when I first used it, I forgot to close the chart. This made new conversations become part of the greeting! I had to go back and fix about forty pages! What a nightmare. --Cremepuff222  ( talk,  sign book ) 00:14, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Nuclear energy
Hi Tbone55, following the various suggestions, I made a disambiguation page for Nuclear energy. But is this really right since I disambiguate different (but related) terms? HPaul 19:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Signature
Please shorten your signature in some way. The amount of coding you have used for your signature is absolutely excessive by WP:SIG standards. It takes up about 5 lines of the edit box which is a ridiculous amount for a signature. Thanks, Metros232 01:25, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Kind of like, real ads.

In fact, the ads are the standard "full banner" 468x60 size, probably the most common shape of web advertisement (or at least it was before the days of popups and Flash animations, neither of which I can do here).
