IU Marching Hundred

Thanks for fleshing out the stub artcle for the Indiana University Marching Hundred. Now if we can just find people for Iowa and Wisconsin and the other Big Ten stubs remaining... I see that a number of your images were removed (most likely for unclear copyright licenses). I'd recommend that you review them and see if you can't repost them with a clear copyright license. -- Upholder 15:34, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just as a note, I didn't delete the images so I'm not entirely sure why they were removed. Based on the page edit history, I'm guessing that Geni deleted them.. and further guess that he did so because he didn't see a copyright license attached to them when they were uploaded. I suggest that you take a look at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and Wikipedia:Untagged images for how to properly attach the copyright clearance to the images. You could also ask Geni if he knows why they were deleted and why they were and how to fix the problem. -- Upholder 18:39, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

what is the exact wording of the permission you have?Geni 18:53, 23 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Use them for what exactly?Geni 00:03, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Then we can't use them since that permission ocvers wikipedia only rather than reusers as well.Geni 01:00, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes other options would be GFDL or creative commons.Geni 01:19, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad you got the images all sorted out. Might I recommend that you use a logo instead of the picture in the infobox and put that picture elsewhere in the article? It's a bit more standard to use a logo in the infobox. -- Upholder 05:27, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From a brief look at the code you used and other articles, I don't think it's a problem with the page, but a temporary problem with the servers that host the images. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't and it's not limited to the IU page. I'd check on it again tomorrow and see if it fixes itself. -- Upholder 15:56, 24 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the problem with that image is related to the resizing done with the 'thumb' keyword. I've temporarilly changed it to use 'frame' which leaves it at the same size until 'thumb' works properly. In the process, I've also done some minor layout changes to the images to improve the overall visual layout of the article. -- Upholder 06:11, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Destructo Box

A tag has been placed on Destructo Box, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

AfD Nomination: Destructo Box

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but all Wikipedia articles must meet our criteria for inclusion (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Since it does not seem to me that Destructo Box meets these criteria, I have started a discussion about whether this article should be kept or deleted.

Your opinion on whether this article meets the inclusion criteria is welcome. Please contribute to the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Destructo Box. Don't forget to add four tildes (~~~~) at the end of each of your comments to sign them.

Discussions such as these usually last five days. In the meantime, you are free to edit the content of the article. Please do not remove the "articles for deletion" template (the box at the top). When the discussion has concluded, an administrator will consider all comments and decide whether or not to delete the article.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia.
While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a free webhosting service. Wikipedia is not a place to post personal content, host personal websites, or do things that are not directly related to adding to or improving the encyclopedia, as you did at User:Rhardiii. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia.

File permission problem with File:IUMHdm.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:IUMHdm.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 permissions-enwikimedia.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-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 22:21, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
