Emma Watson
Hi, thank you for your contributions. Your edits have been reverted, with the exception of the link to J. K. Rowling, accidentally removed during a previous edit. All other examples already were linked in the page, and repetetive links are not in keeping with Wikipedia style. Also, the original quote, "brightest witch of your age" needs brackets for "[her]" since it was changed for sentence context. Questions? Write me :) Radio  Kirk   talk to me  01:58, 8 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Thank you for removing most of my edits on Emma Watson. I was not sure which ones would be repetative, and which ones would not be.


 * It can be tricky at times, especially in longer articles; I've had to copy+paste into an editor some of the pages I work on so I can check for repeats. Anyway, good catch on the missing Rowling link; the page recently underwent some reorganization and that one got lost. Radio  Kirk   talk to me  02:06, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

"Blanking" your talk page
In case you're not aware, "blanking" one's talk page is a common trick used by vandals to hide their histories (it doesn't work, either—the page history is visible for as long as Wikipedia exists). Please see this link for an explanation. Radio Kirk   talk to me  19:30, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Fr. John Corapi
(copied form User talk:DESiegel):

Thank you very much for editing the article on Fr. John Corapi. I'm trying to learn how to write aricles in a Neutral PoV better. Tony 23:37, 16 January 2006 (UTC)


 * You are quite welcome. Please note that the articel should read like a neutral account, not an exceport from hsi own work nor form the work of a fan. Statements of fact should be distinguished from opnions, adn all opnions should be attributed to a specific source, preferably with a reference cited. The articel is still far from the best on wikipedia, but it is significantly better than it was. I wish i could find an outside source on the effect or prominence of Corapi's talks and preaching.

Dukes of Hazzard reverts
Just curious, why are you reverting my "Dukes of Hazzard" edits?

Reverts, part II
Actually, I had been working on fixing the broken image when you reverted. I will try again to make the picture visible. Just FYI.

Of no interest to me at all, but I noticed the "complete rewrite" on Recent Changes. Really good decision to go in there, scrap the drivel and write a good enough article with just the important stuff. Had to drop you a line to say it had been noticed =) doktorb | words 21:42, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

WP: Admin Intervention again Vandalism
Hello Tvaughn05, just wanted to let you know that when you list a vandal on the WP:AIV page, you have to post it at the bottom of the page. You accidentally replaced the example that was under hidden text, which is just there so users know the format, thus, the vandal you reported didn't get listed. I noticed this and have blocked the vandal, so no harm done; this is only a friendly notice for the future. Also, when signing you name, please use four ~, so that a timestamp comes out. This way, administrators can know what time you placed your warning to the vandal compared to his or her last vandalism (so we know if he or she has stopped vandalising). There is a way to add a customized signature so that it comes out when using the four tildes. simply go to "my preferences" and under nickname, enter all the special wiki markup you want to make the signature come out, then press save. Doing this will allow your username, and any other special feature you'd like to add to your sig come out when using the tildes. If you have already done this, then enter four tildes, instead of three so that the timestamp comes out next it. Thanks for reporting the vandal. -- PRueda29  / Ptalk29 / Pcontribs29 19:09, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I apologize, I clicked the add button that was in the instructions. I listed another vandal in the same way!! I'm sorry! Thanks for the tip on the signautre, I just missed a tilde =). I appreciate you letting me know this! Ø  tVaughn05 talkcontribs 19:11, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * No problem. Your new vandal has also been blocked, but by another user. --  PRueda29  / Ptalk29 / Pcontribs29 19:14, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Blanking talk pages
Hi

New to this so please bear with me :) The link you posted implies that it's OK to delete comments from your talk page after you've replied to them, which I've done...

-- 213.208.103.139 23:08, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia! I will leave you a Wikipedia welcome message in a second. (You should create an account!). Although it is Okay to delete comments from your talk page after replying to them, you should keep them, or archive them, because in the case that you are brought before the arbitration committee, they will review your talk page. If you need help here on Wikipedia, feel free to contact me!! Ø  tVaughn05 talkcontribs 23:12, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Esperanza!
Welcome,, to Esperanza, the Wikipedia member association! As you might know, all the Esperanzians share one important goal: the success of this encyclopedia. Within that, we then attempt to strengthen the community bonds, and be the "approachable" side of the project. All of our ideals are held in the Charter, the governing document of the association.

Now that you are a member you should read the guide to what to do now or you may be interested in some of our programs. A quite important program is the StressUnit, which seeks to support editors who have encountered any stress from their Wikipedia events, and are seeking to leave the project. So far, Esperanza can be credited with the support and retention of several users. Redwolf24 runs the spam to keep members up to date. Also, we have a calendar of special events, member birthdays, and other holidays that you can add to and follow.

In addition to these projects, several more missions of Esperanza are in development, and are currently being created at Esperanza/Possibles.

I encourage you to take an active voice in the running of Esperanza. We have a small government system, headed by our Administrator general, Celestianpower, and guided by the Advisory Committee comprised of FireFox, Flcelloguy, Titoxd, and Karmafist. The next set of elections will be in February, and I would be glad to see you vote, or even consider running for a position.

If you have any other questions, concerns, comments, or general ideas, Esperanzian or otherwise, know that you can always contact Celestianpower by email or talk page or the Esperanza talk page. Alternatively, you could communicate with fellow users via our IRC channel, #wikipedia-esperanza (which is also good for a fun chat or two :). I thank you for joining Esperanza, and look forward to working with you in making Wikipedia a better place to work! Cheers, Sango  123   (talk)  00:00, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

An Esperanzial note
As I remember, the last spam that was handed out was on the 20th of December last year, so I think it's time for another update. First and foremost, the new Advisory Council and Administrator General have been elected. They consist of myself as Admin General and FireFox, Titoxd, Flcelloguy and Karmafist as the Advisory Council. We as a group met formally for the first time on the 31st of Decembe. The minutes of this meeting can be found at WP:ESP/ACM. The next one is planned for tonight (Sunday 29 January) at 20:30 UTC and the agenda can be found at WP:ESP/ACM2.

In other news, Karmafist has set up a discussion about a new personal attack policy, which it can be found here. Other new pages include an introductory page on what to do when you sign up, So you've joined Esperanza... and a welcome template: EA-welcome (courtesy of Bratsche). Some of our old hands may like to make sure they do everything on the list as well ;) Additionally, the userpage award program proposal has become official is operational: see Esperanza/User Page Award to nominate a userpage or volunteer as a judge. Also see the proposed programs page for many new proposals and old ones that need more discussion ;)

Other than that, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and wish you an Esperanzially good new WikiYear :D Thank you! --Cel e stianpower háblame 16:57, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Signature
Hi Tvaughn, if you would like to use signatures like mine, you can use my User:Quarl/advanced_sig.js script. One way to use it is to copy parts of User:Quarl/monobook.js to User:Tvaughn05/monobook.js. You need the lines for library functions and the advanced_sig.js line. See also WP:US. &mdash;Quarl (talk) 2006-02-01 11:04Z

For your kind support of my Rfa, which passed. If you should ever have any complaints about my admin actions, please let me know. Also, should you ever need my help with anything, please do not hesitate to ask! Thanks again! All the best  Ban  e  z  17:06, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Who's playing Jesus?
Hi. I doubt very much that the picture you posted at Jesus Christ Superstar shows Ian Gillan. According to the article and what I know of this, Gillan sang on the original album but never appeared in any production. If you carefully read the text at the page you took the picture from, you can see that although one might think the album is the cast album of the musical, it's really the album of the score of the musical. As the article says, this album, the one that topped the charts, was made before the play was ever produced.

I haven't been able to figure out which production your picture is from and who is playing Jesus. &mdash;JerryFriedman 21:45, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Okay, this is perhaps a bit overdue, but thank-you for your support in my recent RfA! I passed with a final vote count consensus of (82/1/0), which was a lot of support that I really appreciate.

Another Esperanzial note...
Hi again Esperanzians! Well, since our last frolic in the realms of news, the Advisory Council has met twice more (see WP:ESP/ACM2 and WP:ESP/ACM3). As a result, the charter has been ammended twice (see here for details) and all of the shortcuts have been standardised (see the summary for more details). Also of note is the Valentines ball that will take place in the Esperanza IRC channel on the 14th of February (tomorrow). It will start at 6pm UTC and go on until everyone's had enough! I hope to see you all there! Also, the spamlist has been dissolved - all Esperanzians will now recieve this update "newsletter".

The other major notice I need to tell you about is the upcoming Esperanza Advisory Council Elections. These will take place from 12:00 UTC on February 20th to 11:59 UTC on February 27th. The official handing-over will take place the following day. Candidates are able to volunteer any time before the 20th, so long as they are already listed on the members list. Anyone currently listed on the memberlist can vote. In a change since last time, if you have already been a member of the leadership, you may run again. Due to the neutrality precident, I will not vote for anyone.

Yours, as ever, Esperanzially,

Lowell/Schools
I checked you website out and noticed you created the st ed website. I was not aware of that when I tried to write the school an email. It was bounced back to be assuming i was spam mail. I wrote XVI and let them know of the problem but have yet to recieve a response. ANYWAYS, I was trying to figure out what the official name of Saint Edward School in Lowell Indiana is. The reason I am confused is because the the website abbreviates it, ads an S at times, the stone picture shows one spelling and a few more I cant recall now. M8gen 22:47, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading Image:She Said Yes.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

Image deleted
The image you uploaded at Image:Nash_bruce.jpg has been deleted. You uploaded it as public domain, but the photographer has contacted Wikipedia to say that (a) it is not out of copyright, as you claimed, and (b) he refuses any right to use it under an unfree license.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Rocko group.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Rocko group.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 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 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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:14, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Non-free use disputed for Image:5smoothstones cover.gif

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion.

Fair use rationale for Image:Beauty geek.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Beauty geek.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Replaceable fair use Image:Celeb_joanne.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Celeb_joanne.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Garion96 (talk) 09:51, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Bo Duke.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Bo Duke.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously.

File permission problem with File:Kelseylynn.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Kelseylynn.jpg I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [mailto:permissions-en@wikimedia.org permissions-en@wikimedia.org].

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Loyola
Just so you know, I removed this bit here. I think it veers too closely into mission-statement language, and offers nothing specific. (Those two "in"s also seem a bit awkward to me.) We'd be better offer describing some statistics, or some specific honors the school has received. Zagal e jo^^^ 02:53, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
