Duplicate images uploaded

Thanks for uploading Image:Fiustadium08.jpg. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:Fiustadium.jpg. The copy called Image:Fiustadium.jpg has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 05:02, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:EL

Please read Wikipedia:External links. In particular, there are passages which state things along the line of

"Links should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links, or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links."
"Avoid links to... Sites that are only indirectly related to the article's subject: the link should be directly related to the subject of the article. A general site that has information about a variety of subjects should usually not be linked to from an article on a more specific subject. Similarly, a website on a specific subject should usually not be linked to an article about a general subject. If a section of a general website is devoted to the subject of the article, and meets the other criteria for linking, then that part of the site could be deep-linked."

For example, you don't need to link to the newspaper's website from Florida International University, but you should probably do so from its article (The Beacon). If you really think one of those links is that important, use it to cite something in the article. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 21:01, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Harold Crosby.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Harold Crosby.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:08, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:FIU_NHC.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:FIU_NHC.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:FIU seal.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:FIU seal.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free 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. However, please note that images 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 '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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Aksibot 02:50, 29 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Florida Memory Project

Images from the Florida Memory project are not as a group suitably-licensed for use on Wikipedia. As the website's copyright disclaimer says, "Some of the images may be protected by copyright. The user must assume any and all responsibility for obtaining appropriate permission for use or assurance of adherence to copyright restriction." Before you upload any more images from there, you need to make sure that the particular image you are uploading has an appropriate copyright status. --Carnildo 01:12, 2 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect of Roary

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Roary, by CultureDrone (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Roary is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Roary, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Roary itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 11:37, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

FIU GA

Excellent! I'll take a look at it right now. Tromboneguy0186 (talk) 04:02, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I left a note on Talk:Florida International University with pretty much the only thing I can see that remains to be done. There were a few exceedingly minor issues in the text, but I took care of them myself. I find that can sometimes be more helpful than a nagging list of things to fix; by all means look over what I've added. Tromboneguy0186 (talk) 04:40, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have passed the article by the GA criteria. Congratulations. Tromboneguy0186 (talk) 05:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Unah.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Unah.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 05:24, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

List of museums in the United States

I'm sorry that I called your edit pointless. That was unnecessary for me to say.

Fort Lauderdale is a different city than Miami, so they should not be in the same section. A similar situation has arisen at least a couple other places on this page. Look at Minneapolis & Saint Paul in Minnesota. If there are an adequate number of museums from both "twin" cities, then we have combined them into one section like that.

The problem here is that in order for a city to have its own section, it must have 5 or more museums (See the rules on the talk page.). Fort Lauderdale does not have 5 or more entries on this page so we can't give it separate recognition yet. It must remain in the "Elsewhere" section until there are 5 or more museums listed - then it may be moved into a conglomerate section like you're trying to do. You may research and add more museums from this city if you would like.

It has been an unsaid rule of thumb to always shorten the name of universities in this form:

(museum name) at (ABC)

Where ABC is the shortest version of the school's name. This is to reduce clutter on the page. I have added this to the general rules/guidelines on Talk:List of museums in the United States.

If you disagree with anything I have said, please post a comment on Talk:List of museums in the United States so several of us can work together and come to a civil solution and to avoid "name-calling". I am going to undo your edit again. Please discuss this with us and allow us to all come to a consensus before you do it again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ben Boldt (talk • contribs) 15:06, 2 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Miami, Florida

I reverted your changes to Miami 1) to eliminate the vandalism that was entered right before your edits and 2) because most of the companies you added are not headquartered in Miami. Try to limit your additions to Dade County, at most, since Fort Lauderdale and Broward County are a separate Metropolitan Division within the MSA. Horologium (talk) 20:07, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, and I apologize. I went through and removed the ones that were already there. Thank you for re-removing the vandalism when you reverted my change. Horologium (talk) 20:17, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Florida

I reverted your edit of the enrollment at Miami-Dade Community College, as it clearly was not supported by the source cited for that section. -- Donald Albury 00:42, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
