File permission problem with File:Portage glacier modern.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Portage glacier modern.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for 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 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 take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

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 permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File 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 created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:17, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

I uploaded the picture many years ago before I understood about the copyright issues on Wikipedia. It won't offend me in the slightest if the image has to be deleted. As you can see, it doesn't even link anywhere on the wiki. --Egpetersen (talk) 04:46, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dagorhir, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Character (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Merger discussion for History (journal)

An article that you have been involved in editing—History (journal) —has been proposed for merging with another article. If you are interested, please participate in the merger discussion. Thank you. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 15:15, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Well, thanks for the notification, but it's weird because I don't see where I edited that page at all, not even to fix a typo or anything. Can you show me where you think I edited it? --Egpetersen (talk) 15:18, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

I included editors who worked on the Historical Association article too; and you did a fine job of adding a tag to it, seven years ago here! I wanted to include as many editors as possible so as to avoid a suggestion of canvassing. Well done for longevity though. _Fortuna ^{Imperatrix Mundi} 15:23, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

I can't believe that tag is still there!! It might be able to be removed since it looks like other sources have been added and the article has long since been fleshed out, but I honestly don't have the time or the interest in that particular article to see how much of the verbiage comes from the primary source. But if the two articles get merged perhaps it will be worked out by other parties... --Egpetersen (talk) 15:40, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for July 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Walk-off home run, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Grand Slam and Daniel Robertson (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Fixed. --Egpetersen (talk) 11:58, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Ultimate grand slam

The definition of an ultimate grand slam is one that erases a three run deficit to win a game. The winning team must therefore win by one run, so the one hit by Daniel Robertson of the Rays, while impressive and notable for many other reasons, does not fall under the definition of ultimate grand slam. Thanks. --Jameboy (talk) 12:13, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Understood --Egpetersen (talk) 12:15, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
