Hi Urgeback, I have described a compromise at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (Football in Australia) - please feel free to comment there. -- Chuq 05:30, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Looneypark.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Looneypark.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 11:06, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Australian national football team
Unfortunately it's been a redirect to the Socceroos page for some time. I fought long and hard to have the disambiguation page at "Australian national football team", but failed. Feel free to raise it at talk:Australian national football team. I still support it being a disambiguation page. Grant | Talk 14:30, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Regarding edits made to One-piece swimsuit
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Urgeback! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \bangelfire\.com\/, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links policy for more information. If the link was to an image, please read Wikipedia's image tutorial on how to use a more appropriate method to insert the image into an article. If your link was intended to promote a site you own, are affiliated with, or will make money from inclusion in Wikipedia, please note that inserting spam into Wikipedia is against policy. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 02:39, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Your image
I downloaded your image, flipped it 90 degrees, then reuploaded it. It should be fine now. Cheers. -- Longhair\talk 06:12, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Note to other reviewing admins:, and  have made the same sort of malformed unblock requests at about the same time, at times making references to one another. This would seem to indicate some sort of meatpuppetry or sockpuppetry. Sandstein 13:38, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Blocked Indefinitely
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing as a result of Suspected_sock_puppets/Bremskraft. All the accounts mentioned have been blocked and a proper explanation will be required before any of the accounts will be unblocked. Spartaz Humbug! 23:14, 6 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I linked your case with Bremskraft because of two coincidences. Firstly, you made the same mistake with the unblock template at the same time as them and secondly, because your explanation of sharing a house was the same one that Bremskraft was using at the same time. However, 2 + 2 ≠ 4 as a Checkuser has confirmed to me that you are not on the same continent as Bremskraft and his socks. I am therefore lifting the block on your account. I am genuinely sorry for this mistake. This still leaves the problem of your housemate being blocked indefinitely for uploading bogus images. His block is not being lifted and he has continued to use your ip to edit wikipedia. The result is that it has been blocked and I suspect that you will continue to incur autoblocks as a result. I'm not sure what we can do about that but I have your page watchlisted and will watch out for unblock auto requests. Again, I am sorry that this misunderstanding has meant that you have been incorrectly blocked for this period but I hope that I have explained how it came about.

Image copyright problem with Image:Lesurelandpic.jpg
Hi Urgeback!

We thank you for uploading Image:Lesurelandpic.jpg, but there is a problem. Your image is currently missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Unless you can help by adding a copyright tag, it may be deleted by an Administrator. If you know this information, then we urge you to add a copyright tag to the image description page. We apologize for this, but all images must confirm to policy on Wikipedia.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks so much for your cooperation. This message is from a robot.

 * Yeah I replied and out my view. Try mentioning your own. Funny how if you don’t like an edit, you think you can revert it and “warn” anyone who disagrees with you then claim them of “warring.” Urgeback (talk) 17:11, 28 June 2023 (UTC)
