Ron Emory Image

Hey Leo,

Just wanted to see if I did the copyright properly for the Ron Emory image.

Thanks! - Rich —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rshansen1 (talk • contribs) 17:24, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

It looks like you got it right, though if the release of the image was made through contact with the rights-holder, you'll need to contact OTRS about that. (Information on doing so can be found on the page I linked, but please ask if you're at all confused. :) I'd also suggest adding a description box, as seen on, say, this image for example. Once you've done that, I'll move the image to a better name; "Shapeimage 4" is pretty vague. The best, Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 02:37, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

I hate to do this.....

Well so that you you actually get something out of this, I'll give you the wikiproject ships barnstar if you can review yet another one of my current 5 GANs. These are for the Wikicup and they can be viewed here. Thanks pal and I owe you one. If you cannot review any of them, just let me know and I'll move on. I'm only doing this because I'm scared that they will not be review in time before round 2 ends and If they are reviewed, I'll be swamped with 5 GAN's at the same time!--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 17:33, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

I'll do it. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 22:51, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Leonard, your a lifesaver :)--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 00:52, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

I've given two of them quick reviews. I might do one of the other articles later, depending on my time and whether someone else does them first. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 20:08, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

I've addressed everything for U-47. Now on to the next one.--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 01:14, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

I've replied at Talk:German submarine U-37 (1938)/GA1. I think that's it.--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 19:49, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Done. Congrats. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 22:49, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

You deserve this for all of your GAN's that you reviewed.

	The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar

Thanks. If you need anything else just ask. Lәo_(βǃʘʘɱ) 23:03, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

I'll give you a rest for now. If I get no reviews in say a week I'll be coming back with the remaining ones.--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 23:04, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

If you don't have anyone reviewing them currently I can just do them now if you'd like. Leo 23:06, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

sure, I'm on it now.--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 00:16, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

I've finished reviewing the article. Apologies on it taking so long; I've been rather busy lately. Congrats on another GA. Leo 02:06, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

No problem. I'll let you know when the other Type IXA aubs are ready for a GA. We make a very good team at GAN don't we? Anyway, thanks ;)--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 02:13, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

Page deletion

I tried to create a page for a young artist who I admire. There were plenty of links to verify the points made in the article. Why did you take it down? ~ ~ ~ ~ chevy —Preceding unsigned comment added by 1954chevypickup (talk • contribs) 04:34, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

I deleted the page because it doesn't meet the guidelines Wikipedia has on the issue of notability of people. While, yes, you did link to other websites, none asserted that he would be notable for an encyclopedia. Wikipedia would need reliable, third-party, substantial sourcing to assert the notability. Leo 04:38, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

Kennerly

context - do you have a cite for it? It probably exists, but David Hume Kennerly isn't well-sourced. tedder (talk) 05:08, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Ah, yes. I'll add two references I have. Thanks for the notification. Leo 00:37, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks LB. Just trying to raise the bar as we go, and I couldn't quickly find a cite. tedder (talk) 00:44, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of John Milton Cooper article?

Hello - I just created an article for this person a few minutes ago and you deleted it. What is the justification for non-notable? This guy just was the runner up for the Pulitzer Prize for his biography of Woodrow Wilson. He has numerous other books, many of which are used as citations in pertinent Wikipedia articles. KConWiki (talk) 03:18, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Y'all might both want to note that the existing article John M. Cooper credits the subject with authorship of the referenced book. If this is a different John M. Cooper, a careful split of the existing page is necessary; if the same, I'll leave you to hash out notability and proper article title. Fat&Happy (talk) 03:44, 16 April 2010 (UTC)

Many thanks for this observation! I am going to do some redirects to the existing article shortly. KConWiki (talk) 04:14, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

I can't see the original article that was deleted, but if I remember correctly, it was sparse, bare, and didn't give any hint of notability (I rarely delete something I'm not sure of). However, the current article (the target of the now-redirect) certainly asserts notability. I'm sorry for the confusion, and I'm glad this could be resolved rather quickly. Thanks, Fat&Happy, for noting the existing article. Leo 01:31, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

2 more GAN's for you

I have German submarine U-42 (1939) and German submarine U-41 (1939) up for a GAN if you'd like to review them :)--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 23:48, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

I'm going to be fairly busy with work for a while, and I'm barely active as it is. I'd take them to WP:GAN and just wait for someone to review them. Leo 23:50, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Ok then. I;ve already done that though. Just thought that you'd have the time. sorry ;)--White Shadows ^{you're breaking up} 23:52, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

About the photo of Jessica Stern that was deleted

Hi, I did put the name of the photographer as source when I uploaded the file, and followed the instruction to email permissions-en at wikimedia dot org with his letter granting permission. In his letter, he did say to contact him if there are questions about the permission he gave - all his contact information were there. I'd appreciate the reposting of the photo. Thanks a lot! Viajeratisima (talk) 08:11, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Oh, sorry for the confusion. I deleted the smaller picture of Jessica Stern because it's superfluous, considering you also uploaded the high res. version of the same photo. It's worth noting, by the way, that a source link for that photo would be nice. Giving a name isn't much of a source, and doesn't assert the license you stated the picture was released under. If the email was received by by permissions-en@wikimedia, then I'd contact an OTRS member who works with permissions and have them confirm that permission was indeed given. Sorry for all this hassle, but thanks for being patient. Leo 08:37, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Could use a little advice

Hi Leonard: I'm a little confused....yes generally...but more specifically about how to create an article and have it appear in the mainspace. Because I'm a registered user (although not for a long time) and trying to learn my way around, I thought the best method of creating an article was to use the Wizard. Now I see it's for non-registered users...yikes. Well, I've already begun that way, so my article Bytown Mechanics' Institute is somewhere, but I don't know where. It's been reviewed and I took note of the comments and tried to incorporate them. The article now shows the following categories: Categories: Unassessed AFC articles | AfC submissions by date/07 August 2010 | Accepted AfC submissions

With the Accepted AFC category, does this mean someone/somebot will move it into the mainspace? Or, do I do that myself? Is a rating on quality/importance to be waited for? If I move this into the mainspace myself, how do I do this? Thanks so much 99.246.14.181 (talk) 00:09, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:AlexCampbell.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:AlexCampbell.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content 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 or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free 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 non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content 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, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hammersoft (talk) 16:11, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Added template for SuggestBot

Hi,

Thanks for being one of SuggestBot's users! I hope you have found the bot's suggestions useful.

We are in the process of switching from our previous list-based signup process to using templates and userboxes, and I have therefore added the appropriate template to your user talk page. You should receive the first set of suggestions within a day, and since we'll be automating SuggestBot you will from then on continue to receive them regularly at the desired frequency.

We now also have a userbox that you can use to let others know you're using SuggestBot, and if you don't want to clutter your user talk page the bot can post to a sub-page in your userspace. More information about the userbox and usage of the template is available on User:SuggestBot/Getting Recommendations Regularly.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my user talk page. Thanks again, Nettrom (talk) 00:12, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Kyla Wayans

The article Kyla Wayans has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable. One minor role, no significant coverage.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. SummerPhD (talk) 20:34, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:26, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

WikiProject United States Government

Greetings. I noticed that you are one of the members of WikiProject United States Government that are still active so I wanted to ask you a question. It appears that this project is mostly inactive aside from what the members might be doing independently. I was considering suggesting that this project be pulled in under WikiProject United States and wanted to solicit comments from some of this projects members before doing so. As with Washington DC and the others the project would for the most part maintain its own independence but I believe this would benefit both projects. What do you think about this? --Kumioko (talk) 23:38, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

I'm hardly what I assumed anyone would consider active, so I'm not really in a place to add any opinions. It would probably benefit both projects, however, to combine similar scopes and try to increase activity. Probably for the best. Leo 07:16, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

US National Archives collaboration

United States National Archives WikiProject

Would you like to help improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to the National Archives and its incredible collection? This summer, the National Archives—which houses some of America's most important historical documents—is hosting me as its Wikipedian in Residence, and I have created WP:NARA to launch these efforts.

There are all sorts of tasks available for any type of editor, whether you're a writer, organizer, gnome, coder, or image guru. The National Archives is making its resources available to Wikipedia, so help us forge this important relationship! Please sign up and introduce yourself. Dominic·t 15:22, 22 June 2011 (UTC)
