Good luck. Come back soon. --Dweller 10:40, 5 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Uh... I though what I put was pretty much good. I've uploaded some thirty images in the last few months and this is the first time anyone has complained. The licensing template says "It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers solely to illustrate the audio recording in question, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information." The image description clearly states that "it is a fair use image because it will illustrate the EP Phages", which it does nicely, as per WP:ALBUMS album infobox. Please let me know what i missed somewhere.--Entoaggie09 00:51, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hey, I noticed you tagged the Sounds of Animals Fighting image with no rationale, so I added as best a rationale as I could (not my forte but I'd like to try to save the image). Let me know if it's good or bad or ugly (which it probably is). Good luck with your exams! Amphy 03:24, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Definitely more of a G10 than an A7 I think.... One Night In Hackney303 12:40, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I noticed that you tagged the image for deletion and I'd like to keep this image. I added its fair use the best I could.
Can you tell me what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance. --Tasco 0 22:16, 6 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well lets say I just welcome only 1 of them and they are starting asking me question about diffrent things and just commented on my poetry and I didn't talk to them in like 2 weeks and I only welcome them and told them to get to editing.Arnon Chaffin (Talk) 12:49, 7 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi there, as a fellow contributor to Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images I was wondering if you'd take the time to comment on the proposal I've made on the talk page at Wikipedia talk:Possibly unfree images#Proposal for an addition to the page introduction. Thanks. Madmedea 19:19, 7 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi,
thanks for your Wiki.java, I am using it for Wikipedia Cleaner and one user just reported a small problem with it: if a page was watched before, it's not after being updated. This is probably due to the value of the "wpWatchthis" input field not being read. --NicoV 21:21, 8 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
private ArrayList watchlist; public void updateWatchlist() { if (watchlist == null) // memory hack watchlist = new ArrayList(1000); // should be enough for most users else watchlist.clear(); (insert boilerplate connection code to api.php here) while (more items in watchlist) { (find out title of item) watchlist.add(title); } watchlist.trim(); // memory hack } public boolean isWatched(String title) { (convert the title so that it is not a talk namespace title) return (watchlist.indexOf(newtitle) != -1); }
... as api.php does not allow us to do this. I'll have a think about this, after the exams. Bugzilla time, I guess. MER-C 06:33, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
I was rather thinking of analyzing the following line when editing the page :
<input name="wpWatchthis" type="checkbox" value="1" checked="checked" tabindex="4" accesskey="w" id="wpWatchthis" />
I was just wondering what value should be sent for the wpWatchthis argument when the page is watched. --NicoV 11:53, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Just to let you know that analyzing the input field "wpWatchthis" seems to be working correctly. Something like
boolean watchThisRetrieved = false; while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) { if (line.indexOf("name=\"wpAutoSummary\"") != -1) { int x = line.indexOf("value=\"") + 7; wpAutoSummary = line.substring(x, line.indexOf('\"', x)); summaryRetrieved = true; } else if (line.indexOf("name=\"wpEditToken\"") != -1) { ... } else if (line.indexOf("name=\"wpWatchthis\"") != -1) { int x = line.indexOf("checked=\""); if (x > 0) { wpWatchThis = true; } watchThisRetrieved = true; } else if (editRetrieved && summaryRetrieved && startRetrieved && timeRetrieved && revisionIdRetrieved && watchThisRetrieved) { break; } }
and
if (wpWatchThis) { out.print("&wpWatchthis=1"); }
--NicoV 15:06, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Argh, users reported problems with this way of working. If they have choosen in their preferences that pages they modify are watched, then all pages modified this way will be watched. Will try to find an other way... --NicoV 13:30, 10 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Thanks (again) for reverting vandalism to my page. --Nlu (talk) 04:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Just to let you know that the original author removed the prod from BusinessDelegate. If you want to take this to AfD, I'll vote to delete. Realkyhick 06:51, 11 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
MER-C
I work for the National Film and Sound Archive (a division of the Australian Film Commission) and have been updating various Wikipedia entries about history (e.g. WWI) and audiovisual materials (e.g. Australian films) external links sections to point people to our digital holdings - all of which have been copyright cleared for display on the internet (we are a govt body with a no-risk attitude to copyright infringement). The NFSA holds a wealth of material not generally available elsewhere, particularly early examples of audiovisual culture.
I am a little puzzled if this is inappropriate as I got the idea to add the external links from reviewing other pages which pointed to cultural institutions such as the Powerhouse Museum, govt. agencies such as the Australian Mint and commercial sites such as IMDB.com.
In all instances, I have added a note to the edits I have made explaining that the link was to point users to holdings within the National Collection of the National Film and Sound Archive.
Could you please let me know if the NFSA's activities have breached Wikipedia guidelines in light of the fact that all data being linked is copyright cleared and posted on the internet by a govt. agency.

I saw, from WP:COIN, that you deleted this article. Ouch, harsh. I was just pointing out the WP:COI, not asking for it to be deleted. Oh well. :-) Bearian 15:56, 22 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Been keeping up on User talk:Eep² a bit, and I noted a few things about this that he's responded with during his ban. One comment is about his lack of desire to continue trying to "fix" dab pages (and I'm really struggling to resist responding to this in a trollish fashion), and another is some of the commentary in the Unblock Request area.
My opinion is that he seems to think we are a democracy, and as has been demonstrated, this editor simply refuses to listen. You noted as much on his RFC.
But here's my thought: insofar as that he seems to think he's going to be the catalyst to a revolution (see [1], last comment), he seems to fail to understand that WP is not a democracy. I'm inclined to tell him to create his own wiki with his own rules. Your thoughts?

Good tags. See also my comments to Danthony21: User talk:Danthony21#Clear COI – Dicklyon 03:29, 30 June 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi,
With version 1.11 alpha, Wiki.java is probably not working any more for updating pages due to a "+" sign added to the wpEditToken value. Using URLEncoder.encode() when outputting wpEditToken seems to fix the problem.
May I have permission to tag, and therefore characterize, your comments at the straw poll as "Keep" or "weak keep"? As the section you referenced is (no longer?) a footnote, your existing comments are somewhat mystifying, but seem to be largely supportive of the section's inclusion.
