Aubrey Dawkins
HeyTony there are still unresolved issues at the Dawkins GAN. I'm afraid I will have to fail if they are not addressed within the next 3 days. I have already gone over the 7 day grace period by several days. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 23:21, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
- I will do some work on this page tonight or tomorrow.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:40, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
National team images
I noticed that there is an image on the Dyshawn Pierre for the Canada national basketball team. It was uploaded in March 2015 as fair use. The rationale can be read on this page. Could this be done for similar images or should this it be deleted? TempleM (talk) 18:22, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
- TempleM, I am not the person to talk to about the propriety of fair use images. I doubt it is a fair use image because it seems to be from a copyrighted page. However, I would confirm at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree files.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:39, 4 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks
... for sharing your NYC experience with Signpost readers. I use Wikipedia in a very similar way and even have a subpage documenting the places I've been and experienced. I, too, often create Wikipedia article about the things I experience, especially when I travel. Thanks again for sharing and contributing to Wikipedia. Keep up the great work! (And keep working on those wonderful Lichtenstein article!) ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:47, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
Great Signpost this week
I gave some personal thanks to Bryce, but I wanted each of you Signpost board folks how much I appreciated this issue. Not only was the op-ed outstanding and thought provoking, the news section was well above average and your travelogue was distinctive and fun to read. For my part, I'd like to see more profiles like that which appeared in the blog. It's impossible to cover every noteworthy event, but the statistical analysis seemed to line up with my anecdotal recollection of the event as it unfolded. Having the opportunity to see such an event analysis on an occasional basis may prove to be a different cross section of exactly how we function in real time. I'm taking the liberty to copy this to each of your board members; please pass my good wishes among your entire team. Outstanding reading. BusterD (talk) 04:49, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Re: Reverted Changes
Hello TonyTheTiger, you have recently reverted my changes to the article for the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago. My apologies for not citing properly, as this is my first edit to Wikipedia. I am actually an employee of the museum and wanted to clarify to the public a few things about how the museum is run, because the current wiki description has been confusing patrons. I'm certain I can find a published source for my information, but the MCA's website would do just as well, I imagine. How do can I put those changes back with the correct citations? Thanks Mirandakristene (talk) 16:01, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
- Check WP:IC, WP:RS and WP:V. Then look at the current citations in the article and make sure that each fact that you want to update or add has a WP:IC from a WP:RS.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:13, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
