The Chart

Hey, I just saw you had put a notice on my IP talk page. Sorry I wasn't logged in when I changed the chart graphic in the article. I have written something about it on Talk:The L Word. --SLB 03:24, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unspecified source for Image:Shane.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Shane.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia: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 specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Note that any unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. feydey 00:58, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I addressed this issue. Thanks! --TLW 01:34, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:The L Word

I noticed that you changed the title of this template from "The L Word" to "the L word". I believe that the proper way to spell the title is "The L Word", as even though the logo of the series is shown with lowercase letters, I have yet to see the series written in lower case letters. I do know that it is written with capitals on the Showcase offical website (the Showtime website was down when I wrote this comment. Morgan695 21:09, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Danielasarahcurvemag.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:Danielasarahcurvemag.JPG. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia 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.

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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Yamla 20:25, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Source

You're edit was caught up in a user interface goof. It was meant to be hidden but was rolled back instead due to. The action was cancelled, but obviously not soon enough.

My appologies.

Image:Characters shane.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Characters shane.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image 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 image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{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 the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image 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 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Roguegeek (talk) 21:15, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Source of your The L Word summaries

You forgot to mention the source for the summaries you added. If they originate from the Showtime website you have violated their copyright see: http://www.showcase.ca/showcase/faq.aspx. Please remove the summaries you added in that case. Thanx. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wikidicted (talk • contribs) 18:09, 23 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Thank you for clearing that up. I hope you will still help improve the list. Maybe you could write the summaries for the new episodes. Wikidicted 18:38, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let know I don't intend to add any more information to the episode guide for a while. I'll let someone else do it and maybe I'll edit it. --TLW 05:21, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User talk page blanking concern

Regarding user talk pages, it is best to not delete notices, but instead, to archive them. You will find how to do this here [1], under "When pages get too long." Your talk page is intended to serve as a place to discuss your contributions. It ends up being a sort of a history of the work you've done and the conflicts you've been in, or the praise you've received. It's alright to archive comments or warnings, but blanking your talk page is not considered acceptable, as it is not actually yours. Please read WP:USERPAGE and WP:TALK. Actively erasing non-harassing personal messages can often be interpreted as hostile. In the past, this kind of behavior has been viewed as uncivil. For this reason, if your deletion of notices and concerns on your user talk page is to keep the "clutter" down, I suggest that you instead create archives for these messages. I would be happy to help you do just that if you ask me to. -Kukini 06:41, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
