Please don't add copyrighted text to Wikipedia
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate your creation of the article, Arthur Woody, but we cannot accept copyrighted text borrowed from other web sites or printed material. Please see Copyright problems for more information on this topic, or generally, Policies and guidelines. Please do not remove the copyright violation notice placed in the article or repost the suspected infringing text. However, if you would like to rewrite the article in your own words, follow the link in the posted notice to create a temporary subpage. If your new article is appropriate, and not a further copyright violation, the reviewing administrator will move that new article into place once the copyright status of the original has been resolved. Happy editing! Fram 11:25, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

If you have a replacement article that does not contain the coyrighted material, then you can remove the tag and put your new article in its place. The person deserves an article. You can of course (and probably should) put a link to the website where the text of the original text came from in yur replacement text, as that article is a good source / reference for it. Thanks for taking the time to change this. Fram 12:51, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Your edit to Roscoe Nicholson
Please do not remove maintenance notices from pages unless the required changes have been made. If you are uncertain whether the page requires further work, or if you disagree with the notice, please discuss these issues on the page's talk page before removing the notice from the page. These notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of a page. Thank you. - CobaltBlueTony 17:01, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

My edits to Roscoe Nicholson
I made substantial changes and was under the impression that, once I had done that, I could remove the "non-notable" notice. I will address this matter further on the page's talk page. Tlmclain 17:16, 25 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi there. I've noticed the theme of your edits, and I'm going to hold off marking "non-notable" for now, in anticipation of you adding more content to the stubs you've created so that you can elaborate more on the significane of them, and how they tie into other geographical, polticial, or significant historical categories.  I will leave the one on the Roscoe Nicholson article for now, in hopes that it will cue (queue?) another editor or admin to take a closer look at them all, thereby generating another perspective for your efforts.  Thank you for your contributions, and even if something you've created gets deleted, don't fret or give up; keep on being bold and contributing, learning as you go.  Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 17:41, 25 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your comments and your encouragement. Tlmclain 17:48, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I looked at the Roscoe Nicholson article and the link to Pine Mountian, GA shows pine mountian on the other side of the state and nowhere near Rabun County, yet the article implies that he was born at the edge of Rabun County. "Born and raised on Pine Mountain, Georgia at the edge of Rabun County, Georgia"  Could you fix this?  (and if there is a Pine Mountian near Rabun County could you please tell me where it is?)
 * Good work on all the Rabun County related editing! Rearden9 18:47, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Tallulah Ranger District
Excellent work on addressing the tag on Tallulah Ranger District! I believe you're a benefit to Wikipedia, and I appreciate your attentiveness and cooperativeness. Again, great work and happy editing~ - CobaltBlueTony 14:57, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

My edits to Tallulah Ranger District and Roscoe Nicholson
Thank you for the compliment regarding the Tallulah Ranger District - I am beginning to learn what is needed. Of course, it would be easier to post articles that were useful if researching and adding things to Wikipedia was all that I did. Real jobs seem to get in the way.

By the way, I have continued to work on the entry for Roscoe "Ranger Nick" Nicholson and still beleive that he is "notable." If you have a chance to look at it, I think that you will see that he was an important figure in the history of Rabun County, Georgia and the Chattahoochee National Forest. Frankly, I don't know why I have gotten interested in this guy, but he hass captured my imagination. Am I getting close to convincing you that he should not be deleted as "non-notable?" If so, perhaps we can remove the tag. Tlmclain 15:09, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I believe so. By the way, I have been mistaken on policy here, and was so informed by User:Mangojuice.  It is acceptable to remove the prod tag, but a discussion is usually acceptable -- which you did.  Furthermore, the reponse on my part after you removed the prod tag would have been to submit it via WP:AFD.  This is not needed now, however, as you have established your subject within the context of all of your submissions.  Thanks for your contributions and happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 15:31, 28 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank-you! Tlmclain 16:06, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Rich Knob
Cobaltbluetony: Thanks for fixing the capitalization in this one - I was trying to figure out how to fix it when you corrected it! - Tlmclain 19:57, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I merely clicked the "move" tab, next to the "article" and "edit" tabs, to rename the article. It's a handy l'il feature. ;-) - CobaltBlueTony 19:58, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Help with edits to Big Frog Wilderness and Cohutta Wilderness
To whomever - Both Wilderness entries need a Category for Wilderness Areas of Tennessee - how do I add that? Also, with respect to the Cohutta entry, something strange has happened with the footnotes: On preview, just one shows up, but, when I save, the footnote doubles up - how do I fix that?
 * I could not figure out who left this comment, finally dawned on me to look under your own edits. In the search box, just put a colon (i.e. ":" ) before the name of the Category to create it. For example, ":Category:Category for Wilderness Areas of Tennessee" (w/o the quotes) should to the trick. Might be useful to check out Wikipedia:Categorization and its discussion page if interested in reading more about categories. Enjoy. -- Roswell native 15:24, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Copyvio on Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC
I understand that you may work for Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC, but we can't make that assumption. If text on Wikipedia exists elsewhere, and the person who contributed it didn't already go through special machinations to clear that text as available under the GFDL, then we have to tag it and bag it. You have several options, but here are the best two, IMHO: Your final option is one that I don't think will work for you (because that text isn't vital in any way to Wikipedia), but you could try it if you really want to. You can read all about it at Example requests for permission. Good luck, and happy editing! -Harmil 00:13, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Simply walk away (from your company's article, but feel free to contribute elsewhere). The Wikipedia community will much more readily embrace an article if it's written by someone other than those directly involved. See WP:AUTO for a guideline that applies to individuals writing about themselves. I think it applies well to your situation also.
 * Follow the instructions in the copyvio notice at Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC to create a sub-page, and on the new page, write the text from scratch, avoiding the use of any existing text. Describe the firm in your own words. Make sure to read the notability guidelines and the neutral point of view policy so that you can avoid writing the sort of article that someone is just going to suggest deleting.


 * Since I am quite familiar with this topic, this will be easy enough to rewrite and I will undertake to do so soon. Tlmclain 02:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * A revision has been posted to Talk:Womble_Carlyle_Sandridge_%26_Rice%2C_PLLC/Temp. Hopefully this will correct the issue.  Tlmclain 20:53, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * The revision appears acceptable according to WP:COPY, so I replaced the tag with your revision at the original page, Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC.  Then, I edited out the redundant blog links, per WP:EL, as users can do their own searching of those sources.  The blog link itself might even seem out of place by other editors, as it may itself be reachable through the company's main website.  Thank you for your efforts!  Happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony 12:28, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

RE: Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC
Your article was deleted according to Wikipedia policy because of copyright problems. If you don't work it out within five days, the article is deleted:
 * From the deletion log:
 * 19:26, September 16, 2006 deleted "Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, PLLC" (Copyvio, listed on Copyright problems for over a week, from http://www.wcsr.com/default.asp?id=76)

- CobaltBlueTony 17:35, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, but what copyright problem? The only one of which I am aware is the one that I sucessfully resolved with you. Tlmclain 20:05, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * You're right, and I've undeleted the article; I'm not sure what happened, since I actually remember seeing that article and noting that it had been fixed; I'm not sure how I flubbed that up and deleted it anyway--I must have left the tab open on the old revision with the copyvio tag, and assumed I'd meant to delete it. Sorry about the confusion. --RobthTalk 23:44, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks and no problem. Since I'm relatively new to Wikipedia, I was afraid that I was miising some key point. Thanks for all you do as an administator to keep Wikipedia "clean." Tlmclain 01:28, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Close up shot of swamp pink.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Close up shot of swamp pink.jpg.

Rocky Knob
I did not realize that there were many different Rocky Knobs in Georgia. That does create a difficult situation. However, having one of them called Rocky Knob (at in Georgia) is not a good way to resolve the problem. I think that for now, you should create one article for all the Rocky Knobs in Georgia, with one heading describing each one, particularly the place where it is. The main Rocky Knob page will also make clear that the Rocky Knob (Georgia) page will be talking about many mountains. Academic Challenger 21:26, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Unblocked
Hi. You're good to edit once again. Please don't do a random character test like that last one. :) Sorry for the inconvenience. - Lucky 6.9 01:02, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem - it was unitentional anyway.Tlmclain 01:05, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Lucky 6.9 the block still seems to be in effect for all pages but my own talk page. Could you check to make sure that both my username and address are unblocked?  Thanks. Tlmclain 01:10, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

You should be good to go by the time you read this. The system has a bug which doesn't always unlock the IP right away. I am so sorry for the inconvenience.


 * Lucky 6.9 - If you happen to have my talk page on your watch list, perhaps you will get this. For whatever reason, the IP address 65.12.169.133 continues to be blocked.  In fact, I cannot even find the address in the log of blocked addresses, so I guess the system bug is still acting up.  Please see what you can do to get 65.12.169.133 unblocked since I had hoped to do some editing tonight. Tlmclain 00:09, 25 October 2006 (UTC)


 * The block seems to have cleared on its own. Tlmclain 02:25, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Re: Image Problem
I know there are some issues with thumbnailing very big PNG images (see here), your images seem to be right around the "magical" 3500x3500 size limit for the thumbnailing code. So I would guess that's the cause of your problems. --Sherool (talk) 20:30, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Continued Blocking Problem
Any Adminstrator - This IP address (65.12.169.133) and Tlmclain were autoblocked last night by Lucky 6.9. Lucky 6.9 quickly unblocked Tlmclain, but the block of the IP address continues. According to Lucky 6.9, "The system has a bug which doesn't always unlock the IP right away." Please see Unblocked on this page for more information. I have been able to edit Wikipedia from another computer, but not this one. Please unblock IP address 65.12.169.133 as soon as you can. Thanks! Tlmclain 00:31, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * The block seems to have cleared on its own.Tlmclain 02:24, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

TMSF
Hi, I see you're adding info re: TMSF to many articles. I didn't check any other articles, but at Albany State University, you stuck it up in the introductory paragraph which is inappropriate. It belongs in the body of the article in the section about scholarships or academics, etc. -THB 15:14, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Help!
Like my message said, just cleaning up one article is a big help. Thank you! Clamster5 14:47, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi Tlmclain, thanks for the barnstar. I enjoy reading your additions, keep up the good work! You deserve a barnstar more than I do! --Roswell native 03:12, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Gurch: As someone relatively new to Wikipedia (about 3 months), I am curious about the resolution of the page I marked as a candidate for deletion > List of Silver Anniversary Awards (NCAA) Receipients. I see that it has been made a redirect page as opposed to deleting it.  The reason I was suggesting it for deletion was the incorrect spelling of "Receipient."  That error in the page name was created by a typo (I should know, I am the fat-fingered, bonehead who created it).  Since the page had no links to or from it, was empty and, due to the typo, really isn't an effective redirect page ("Receipient" is not a commn mis-spelling of "Recipient"), I proposed it for deletion.  I was wondering why it was not deleted.  Would you please enlighten me?  Tlmclain  | Talk 23:01, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hi. We tend to keep redirects from misspelled page names unless the misspelling is rediculously unlikely, in which case they can be speedy deleted. You have yourself misspelled the page name in creating the page, so it's feasible that someone may do it again. If you disagree, you may list the redirect at Redirects for deletion.
