Copyright issues
I'm sorry for coming down so hard on you. I'm sure the lyrics pages were legitimate mistakes. The pages will simply be deleted and provided you don't go about posting copyrighted pages elsewhere, it'll just be chalked up to an understandable mistake. Don't sweat it, everyone makes mistakes from time to time. I do advise that you read the guidelines on copyright, though, as some things that people think are fair to use may not be. Happy birthday in advance! By the way, you can sign your posts by typing two minus signs, then four tilde characters. Or hitting the 'signature with timestamp' button at the top of the edit window. --Yamla at 3:03 p.m. (central time) August 15, 2005

Age Restriction
I don't believe there's an age restriction for membership on the Wikipedia. I suppose it is possible that you have to be eighteen but I doubt it. Besides, you are eighteen on Tuesday. --Yamla 3:15p.m., August 18, 2005 (USA central time)

Re. the Proud Family movie
I placed the redirect there because the page was blank. Now that you've started adding things, that's fine with me. I would suggest you fix it up more, however; for a general idea of how the page should look, see Rocket Power: Island of the Menehune, another made-for-TV movie.

Finally, just a etiquette note...please do not edit other users' user pages. Conversation is supposed to go on the User talk page (the "Discussion" tab). Ral 315  08:43, September 5, 2005 (CDT)

Closed VfD pages
Please don't alter closed VfD/AfD discussions like you did on the Disney Channel songs list. It won't do anything useful and corrupts the database. There is a Votes for Undeletion channel you can go through if you feel that the article was wrongly deleted, but I rather doubt something with a more or less unanimous consensus for deletion is going to get restored. Haikupoet 04:32, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

The Suite Life redirect
I've reversed your blanking of the The Suite Life redirect. Please use Redirects for deletion if you wish to remove the redirection. Simply blanking pages on Wikipedia is not the correct way to remove bad content. TexasAndroid 21:26, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Uploaded images.
Hi, I just saw you uploaded Image:Marvelcave2.jpg and Image:Grandfathersm.jpg without adding any copyright notices. The images look like professional work, are you sure that they are not in violation of copyright? /probell (Talk) 3:57, 21 September 2005 (UTC) (Edited twice, 'cause of butterfingers)
 * Well, I had no objection to the images themselves. They definitely look like they could belong in Wikipedia. What I was worried about was that you did not provide a copyright statement and since the images look very professional they led me to suspect that they might be copyrighted. (If they are we can't use them on Wikipedia, unless we are given permission by the copyright holder). Where did you get the images? Do you own them yourself or did you download them from a site? These things are (unfortunately) very important, since using copyrighted images without permission is illegal.
 * Check out Image use policy to begin with and read further on Copyrights. All the available tags for the images are on Image copyright tags. /probell (Talk) 21:27, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
 * No worries. Just one thing, please remember to sign your posts by adding ~&#126; at the end. Wikipedia will automatically substitute that for your user name and the current time. /probell (Talk) 22:02, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

Image:LifeWithDerek.jpg appears to have incorrect copyright information given by you. I have corrected the copyright status. Please update the page with the correct copyright status. --Yamla 16:58, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Image:LikeWithDerek.jpg, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! --Yamla 15:59, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Image:POTFCast.jpg appears to have incorrect copyright information given by you. I have corrected the copyright status (to unknown). Please update the page with the correct copyright status. --Yamla 17:05, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Re: Movies Rated PG
I think Category:Movies Rated PG is irrelevant because it is US-centric. A movie may have different ratings in other countries. Furthermore, how are you going to categorise a foreign movie that is rated PG in US &mdash; listing it under the rating in its original country or per US rating? Besides, in some countries, a movie may have two different ratings for its theatrical and DVD release. By the way, please don't remove the notice while the nomination is being considered. However, you are welcome to voice your objection here. Thank you for your understanding. --*drew 02:02, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

Your revert of my edits to Most Wanted The Signature Edition

 * 1) Please do not revert my introduction of a redirect to that article again. Most of the information in that article was already present on Most Wanted (Hilary Duff album). Like I said in my edit summary, there's no point whatsoever having the same information in two places. Closely related to this, they are essentially the same album: unless the main article became too big and had to be split off to reduce its size, there's no reason to have different articles on different versions of the same album. See In This Skin for an example of this.
 * 2) Please use Template:Album infobox instead of raw syntax when editing album articles. It creates consistency among them, and is far easier to edit.
 * 3) A lot of your edits do not conform to Wikipedia's manual of style. Please read the guidelines there. Other useful links to visit are The five pillars of Wikipedia, How to edit a page, Help pages, Tutorial and How to write a great article. Please consult WikiProject Music and WikiProject Albums also.
 * 4) Cite your sources so that others can verify your work. Thank you. Extraordinary Machine 10:44, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * 5) On articles such as In Search of Santa, you've copied and pasted content from other websites onto Wikipedia. Wikipedia, as a free encyclopedia, cannot accept copyrighted text. Please remove any copyrighted text you have added to Wikipedia. Thank you. Extraordinary Machine 12:06, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

TS Arlene 2005
Hi, we only create articles for major storms (Dennis, Emily, Katrina, Ophelia, Rita, Stan, Wilma). Arlene was definitely not notable, and I've redirected it. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  02:40, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It's consensus; Tropical Storm Alpha got redirected to the main article. Tropical Storm Wilma also got redirected to the main article before it became huge. It's just not needed, especially if the article's going to be a copy (relatively, at least) of its section at the main article. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  02:48, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's correct. You should always ask and put it up for a group vote before creating articles. Arlene was not notable; it did very little damage. CrazyC83 03:17, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

2005 Atlantic hurricane season
Please stop changing the article. Get your facts right please, the storm is no longer active. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  02:55, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * EDIT: Btw, there is no need to list active storms. "Last storm dissipated" means the FINAL storm fo the season's dissipation date. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  02:56, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Let me rephrase myself. Wilma is no longer active, as the National hurricane Center has stopped issuing advisories. The "Last storm dissipated" means the last storm for the season - while the season is still active, we could still get a Beta or Gamma. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  03:01, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * We use the National Hurricane Center as a base as that is the official forecast RSMC appointed by the UN. Therefore wilma is NOT active. I will be forced to include you at WP:VIP if you don't cease. -- NSLE (Communicate!)  03:07, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That is correct...the "Last storm dissipated" column is meant to determine when the last storm actually dissipated in the season. While the current date (October 25) is currently the date of the last storm, there are still 5 weeks left in hurricane season and 10 weeks left in 2005. True, Wilma is not active, but there are systems out there that could become Beta (and there could still be storms in November and - although unlikely - December). That should only be filled when the season/year is over and all storms have dissipated. CrazyC83 03:15, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Also, I'm not sure about these path images you're uploading. They say copyrighted, but don't say by whom - which is equivalent to saying no source. Furthermore, they don't really add much and clutter up the article, as there will be a full season path map when the season is over. --Golbez 21:58, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.  --  NS LE  ( Commu nicate! ) < Contribs > 00:18, 27 October 2005 (UTC)


 * In case you didn't realise, ALL of your edits have been reverted by someone, sooner or later. It's quite a clear sign that they're unilateral edits that are not needed in the article (the section for each storm already lists the life of the storm, for crying out loud!). You have been listed at WP:VIP for your continued unneeded edits. -- NS LE  ( Commu nicate! ) < Contribs > 00:31, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

2005 Atlantic hurricane season
I guess I accidentally got rid of them when I was reverting the the images back to alternating...sorry. You can put them back in if you want.

Tropical Storm Alpha
sorry, but you're wrong there. Why not check out the Hurricane Ophelia article? It's a Category 1. Or all the articles in Category:Tropical storms. --Revolución (talk) 21:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)


 * "Hurricane force" is not a requirement for an article on a tropical cyclone. --Revolución (talk) 21:43, 28 October 2005 (UTC)


 * First, read WP:CIVIL. I suspect the article you created was about a storm which did not cause any deaths or much damage at all, and that is what was considered in the creation of the Alpha article. And if you want to see a consensus on whether this article should be deleted or not, you should go through the WP:AFD process and not try to put a speedy delete tag on the article. And please don't create separate sections on my talk page with "!!!!!!!!!!!", please keep it in one section. --Revolución (talk) 21:51, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Images
PLEASE stop uploading hurricane images from Wunderground and associated sites. You're saying these are copyrighted images released by the author. First of all, that's useless unless you tell us who the author is, and secondly, I'm pretty sure Wunderground has done no such thing. --Golbez 01:23, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Tcatron565, you have been warned over and over and over about copyrighted content. Please do not post anything else (images or text) without first reading and understanding Copyrights.  If there is any part of that policy that you do not understand, please ask for clarification.  Until you understand all parts of it and you agree to abide by the policy (and by Copyright law), please do not post anything further.  --Yamla 03:38, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Tcatron565, even after additional warnings, you have continued to blatantly violate copyright, this time lying about copyright attributions such as that at Image:At20056 sat.jpg. I am very disappointed in your actions.  I have been working with you since August, 2005 to try to stop your repeated violations and nothing seems to be working.  I am afraid I am going to have to request administrator intervention in this case.  I am disappointed, I expected better from you.  --Yamla 14:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Request for comment
I have made a request for comment about this user's repeated copyright violations at RFC Tcatron565. --Yamla 14:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Regarding your comments on my talk page. In my opinion, your repeated copyright violations over the past ten or twelve weeks have gone beyond something we can resolve.  You've been warned by many users over many weeks and have seemingly been unwilling to change (or at least, have continued uploading copyrighted images right up until today).  Please feel free to explain yourself at RFC Tcatron565.  This is where the discussion will take place.  --Yamla 15:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Tcatron565, please make sure you are watching the RFC page. If you aren't sure how to do this, please contact me and I'll tell you how.  As I note on the discussion page there, you certainly do perform useful edits.  The RFC is really honestly for people other than myself (and others who have already warned you) to try to figure out the best approach to these continued problems.  --Yamla 16:50, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

infobox hurricane season active
There is an "active systems" entry in the infobox, not "active storms". Please do not make changes in the article which affects the TEMPLATE in effect.-- NS LE  ( Commu nicate! ) < Contribs > 00:11, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Actually, it was that way for a few hours, and no-one spotted it. Also, please, sign your posts on others' talk pages! -- NS LE  ( Commu nicate! ) < Contribs > 01:43, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

Re: 2nd Way to Split the U.S.A.
Tcatron565, I read your 2nd Way to Split the U.S.A., and I still believe the two articles (The Southwestern States (of the U.S.A.) and The Southern States (of the U.S.A.)) should be merged with Southern United States. If you wish to discuss this, let's do so on the articles' talk pages, and give an opportunity for others to voice their opinion. In any case, DO NOT remove the merge notices until a consensus is reached. Thank you. Owen&times; &#9742;  01:47, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
 * ''FINE DELEATE ALL MY PAGES ON THE REGIONS IF YOU WANT TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just tell me when they are gone so I can leave Wikipedia forever. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tcatron565 (talk • contribs)
 * There's no reason to get irate. All I said was, let's sit down like civilized people and discuss this. If your articles contain valuable information that doesn't exist on Southern United States, that information should be added to Southern United States. I don't think there is justification in creating a new set of articles just because you came up with a new way to divide the US. But this is what discussion pages are for; as long as you keep the merge notices in place, we can check and decide what makes the most sense. Owen&times; &#9742;  02:03, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Re: 2005 Statistics
Thanks for liking the 2005 table. As for doing the previous years, I do NOT intend to do that at this time. However, what I can do instead is to create a toolkit for constructing them. This would be a set of templates that would be used to construct the table. An example can be seen in how the navigation button bar for the season is constructed. However, before I even do that I think that it would be wise to wait a few weeks and see how things settle out. That table is being updated in all sorts of interesting ways at this time, and until it has settled down doing the toolkit may not be a very good idea. (I am not interested in forcing people to edit templates to affect the table at this time. Later on they will be a powerful maintenance tool, but right now they will interfere with the finalization of the form of these tables.) --EMS | Talk 05:28, 1 December 2005 (UTC)

2005 Atlantic hurricane season
The image of Gamma you added was unsourced. I removed it from the article, unless you can provide a source. Likewise, your Delta picture has been removed until copyright status has been confirmed. NSLE ( 讨论 + extra  CVU ) 00:36, 3 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I notice that Delta has an NOAA stamp on them. Gamma's is from Accuweather, and may be copyrighted. NSLE  ( 讨论 + extra  CVU ) 00:37, 3 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Your post on my talk page violates no personal attacks, and has been edited to conform to standards. NSLE  ( 讨论 + extra  CVU ) 00:42, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Citing sources
Thanks for your edits to Aly & AJ. Unfortunately, you forgot to WP:CITE your changes, so they were reverted. --Yamla 22:39, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

This message is regarding the page Aly & AJ. Please refrain from adding nonsense to Wikipedia. It is considered vandalism. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. --Yamla 23:11, 12 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Thanks, but you still need to cite your sources. Please read WP:CITE to learn how to do this.  --Yamla 00:21, 13 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Your edits to Hilary Duff have been reverted for the same reason as above. As Yamla has requested (and as you are requested to every time you edit a page), please cite your sources so that others can verify your work. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 22:30, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Album covers, etc. on biographical articles
Copyrighted fair use images, such as album covers and film posters, should never be used for decorative purposes in articles. See Fair use for more information. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 22:33, 16 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I see that you have restored the excess album covers and film posters/DVD covers to the Hilary Duff article, without responding to my message above. I have reverted. Please consult Fair use. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 22:44, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

This message is regarding the page Hilary Duff. Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Yamla 15:40, 17 December 2005 (UTC)


 * It is vandalism because yet again, you forgot to cite your sources. Also, yet again, you are posting excessive album covers to the article without responding to Extraordinary Machine's comments above.  You have been warned repeatedly about these things.  That you continue to ignore them leads me to believe you are deliberately vandalising these pages.  --Yamla 15:50, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Regarding the page Hilary Duff: this is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Yamla 15:51, 17 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Per Fair use, "The material must contribute significantly to the article (e.g. identify the subject of an article, or specifically illustrate relevant points or sections within the text) and must not serve a purely decorative purpose." Additionally, the image description page must contain, "For each article for which fair use is claimed, the name of the article and a "fair use rationale" as explained in Image description page. The rationale must be presented in a manner that can be clearly understood and which is relevant to the article in question." The request for comment that you were the subject of was addressing image copyright problems, so I suggest that you read Fair use closely. Also, I'd appreciate it if you were to post on my talk page properly, i.e. by posting new sections at the bottom of the page and signing your comments with four tildes ( ~ ). Extraordinary Machine 16:05, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

User pages and "fair use"
Hi, sorry to bother you, but I just wanted to point out that according to Fair use we are not allowed to use unfree (so called "fair use") images on (among other things) user pages (because they are only legal for strictly encyclopedic usage). I'm referring to the albumcovers in the list of CD's you own. Please either remove all such images from your user page, or replace them with free licensed alternatives. That will ensure that you user page won't be a potential legal problem (however unlikely it seems) for the project. Thanks for understanding. --Sherool (talk) 16:18, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

Chart positions
As you are clearly unwilling to WP:CITE chart positions, I ask you to please refrain from updating chart positions on any Wikipedia article. If you feel you have a valid citation for a chart position and you really wish to update the information on an article, please either post your planned change on the article's discussion page or track down another editor, provide them with the citation and chart position change, and verify it with them first. If you continue inserting chart figures without citing them, you may be blocked for your vandalism of articles. Remember, linking to an artist's biography is not the same as citing the chart position of one of that artist's albums. --Yamla 17:57, 17 December 2005 (UTC)


 * You've added unsourced chart positions and record certifications to the Avril Lavigne article, again without citing your sources as you have been asked to here, and as you are requested to every time you edit a page. This is nothing against you personally, but we need all editors to cite their sources so that their work can be verified. Extraordinary Machine 22:54, 20 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Actually, I think the edits were sourced this time around. I'll make a note to Extraordinary Machine about this.  --Yamla 00:30, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Okay, it turns out that the album charts were cited but you made a great number of changes to the Singles chart while only providing citations for the U.S. chart positions. You claim, for example, that Complicated hit #1 in Canada, #3 in the United Kingdom, and #1 in Australia.  Your citation provides support for your claims for the U.S. chart position but does not cite the positions in the other countries.  This is a step forward, Tcatron565, but it is still short of what editors are required to do.  Further, I had already asked you not to update chart positions without tracking down an editor to run your changes past first.  I think it is clear that you are trying here, but please understand that it is frustrating when we ask you over and over to do something and you simply refuse, often just ignoring our comments.  --Yamla 03:44, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Regarding your edits to the discography section at Hilary Duff: Tcatron, I'm afraid that Wikipedia articles can't be used as references for other Wikipedia articles. Extraordinary Machine 15:21, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Tcatron565, you forgot to WP:CITE your sources with your recent edit of Hilary Duff. Was this deliberate? --Yamla 16:19, 23 December 2005 (UTC)


 * You are right, I withdraw my complaint. I was expecting the citation to appear right by the chart position but you put it above (which is probably a better idea).  As a suggestion because I am apparently blind, you may want to note in your Edit summary (the line edit just above the Save page button) that the chart position is cited at the top of the table.  This will make me look less stupid.  Thanks, Tcatron565.  --Yamla 16:42, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Tcatron565, I just wanted to say you did a great job with your chart position edits today. You cited things well. Thank you very much. --Yamla 16:21, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
