Heya

I emailed you about the image on Astroland :-) Good to see you here and good to see such a high quality article from a new user (Sir Gawain and the Green Knight). In fact, I was wondering if we could put this on peer review and then onto featured article candidates? - Ta bu shi da yu 01:35, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi, we have some questions about Steve Dalwoski...

More on what happened after he retired. What little we do know is already in the article, I'd really like to have some more on his life as a migrant worker and how it affected him.
I'm not actually sure if he's still alive (hopefully he is!) as the last information we have on him has him sick, but active in 2003. So, more on what's going on with him now, he has a family and he still attends ball games. What else does he do with his time? Any recent pictures?

Are you able to help? Thanks mate. - Ta bu shi da yu 00:59, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Steve Dalkowski

Hello, I'm about to write to Kit Krieger about his post on Steve, can you tell me where this came from? Cheers... Zerbey 00:00, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, I will. I got the picture but am not sure if it's free for use by Wikipedia. Do you have any idea if this is the case? Zerbey 02:07, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I'm sure it will, thanks for your help! Zerbey 02:31, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Nihilartikel

"Some would say" is not exactly a citation. Do you have evidence on this? It's not like Finnegans Wake is short on invented words. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:01, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)

Given the lack of citation I am going to revert this. Probably a quarter of the words in Finnegans Wake are in some sense nonsense words. In "Three quarks for Muster Mark" I see no more reason to think "quark" is a typo than "Muster". -- Jmabel | Talk 01:13, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

My credentials in Joycean study aren't recent but they are reasonably good: I took one semester-long single-author college course on Joyce, another on Jocye and Beckett, and was one of the two chief copy editors of Louis Mink's The Finnegans Wake Gazetteer (and a minor contributor to in other ways). Because of the nature of the text, this meant developing about as close a familiarity with the textual details of Finnegans Wake as anyone who is not a Joycean scholar in the narrow sense. -- Jmabel | Talk 02:48, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

Again, as I remarked at Talk:Nihilartikel, if you can document this, then it belongs in Wikipedia somewhere, though I still don't see the relation to Nihilartikel. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:10, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Tunc Tezel SN 1006.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Tunc Tezel SN 1006.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:3c58 chandra.jpg has been listed for speedy deletion because you selected a copyright license type implying some type of restricted use, such as for non-commercial use only, or for educational use only or for use on Wikipedia by permission. While it might seem reasonable to assume that such files can be freely used on Wikipedia, this is in fact not the case[1][2]. Please do not upload any more files with these restrictions on them, because images on Wikipedia need to be compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License or another free license, which allow anyone to use it for any purpose, commercial or non-commercial. See our non-free content guidelines for more more information.

If you created this media file and want to use it on Wikipedia, you may re-upload it (or amend the image description if it has not yet been deleted) and use the license {{GFDL-self}} to license it under the GFDL, or {{cc-by-sa-3.0}} to license it under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license, or use {{PD-self}} to release it into the public domain.

If you did not create this media file, please understand that the vast majority of images found on the internet are not appropriate for Wikipedia. Most content on the internet is copyrighted and the creator of the image has exclusive rights to use it. Wikipedia respects the copyrights of others - do not upload images that violate others' copyrights. In certain limited cases, we may be able to use an image under a claim of fair use - if you are certain that fair use would apply here, you may choose one of the fair use tags from this list. If no fair use rationale applies, you may want to contact the copyright holder and request that they make the media available under a free license.

If you have any questions please ask at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you. Lyrl^Talk _C 22:50, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Evollplabel.JPG)

Thanks for uploading File:Evollplabel.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:05, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
