== Jujiro Wada ==

That deleted picture of Wada that you said was ca. 1900 is actually dated to the winter of 1909-1910. The town is Seward, and there are copies of the photo in the McIlhenny archives. [[User:Joseph Svinth|Joseph Svinth]] 08:48, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

: You asked if I was sure that was Wada. I'd put money on it, but I can't guarantee it. There were other Japanese in Seward (and Alaska) at the time, and sometimes Wada traveled with them. That isn't C.K. Sunada, who was one of Wada's Japanese buddies in those days. To know for sure, probably we'd have to look in all the Seward and Seattle papers of the day, and unfortunately, those back issues aren't online yet. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Joseph Svinth|Joseph Svinth]] ([[User talk:Joseph Svinth|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Joseph Svinth|contribs]]) 00:56, 15 March 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

::Okay, after going through the history of the scanned image, I understand. You thought the man in the uploaded picture was Wada, and I was thinking that you meant the Japanese fellow off to the left, whose face you can't see, who was cropped out of the uploaded image. The odds are better than 1-in-5 that the Japanese fellow that was cropped out of the image is Wada. Why? Well, Wada had four Japanese with him in Seward on that trip, so it's almost certainly one of them. As for this gentleman, I'd guess Jack Baird, who was Wada's business partner. [[User:Joseph Svinth|Joseph Svinth]] 09:57, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

::PS. After reviewing my notes and clippings, I've also changed the date to ca. 1912-1913, as that's when Wada was ramrodding the expedition out of Seward for McIlhenny. But, it's definitely 1909-1914. See the upgraded article for details. [[User:Joseph Svinth|Joseph Svinth]] 10:00, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

== Cajun musicians and French wikipedia ==

I read your article on [[Rod Bernard]], and wanted to suggest that you consider doing articles for the French Wikipedia at http://fr.wikipedia.org as well, particularly on Cajun music and Cajun musicians, if you are comfortable writing in French.

== AMA request ==

I saw your request on [[WP:AMARQ]]. The best course of action is to warn the user (check out [[WP:UTM]]), then file a report at [[WP:AIV]] if they keep vandalising. Unfortunatly, the IP's are AOL, and they change IP ever few minutes/page loads. If you require any more help, or you don't need any more help, post a responce under your request at [[WP:AMARQ]]. -[[User:Royalguard11|Royalguard11]]<small>([[User talk:Royalguard11|Talk]]·[[User:Royalguard11/Desk|Desk]])</small> 22:48, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

== [[:Lew Walt]] ==

Thanks for adding the ''LIFE magazine'' information to the [[:Lew Walt]] article.  Do you have access to the article?  In particular, could you expand on the focus of the article?  &mdash; [[User:ERcheck|ERcheck]] ([[User talk:ERcheck|talk]]) 23:09, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
: Great add to the article!  Thanks.  I found references to the article, but did not find any online version, so it is great to know what was said.  Is the 1945 Quantico photo [[public domain]]?  If so, are you planning to scan it and add it?  &mdash; [[User:ERcheck|ERcheck]] ([[User talk:ERcheck|talk]]) 23:31, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
:: Lew Walt was promoted from Major to LtCol in 1942; promoted from LtCol to Col in 1951, so in the c. 1945 photo Walt would be a LtCol. &mdash; [[User:ERcheck|ERcheck]] ([[User talk:ERcheck|talk]]) 23:18, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

== [[Walter Stauffer McIlhenny]] ==

Great addition &mdash; [[:Walter Stauffer McIlhenny]]!

Would you add a little more information about history with the McIlhenny company?  I'd like to nominate this for [[WP:DYK]], but I think it needs a little more company info.  The DYK time-window is very short &mdash; 5 days from creation.  I'll revisit it later today.  

Thanks. &mdash; [[User:ERcheck|ERcheck]] ([[User talk:ERcheck|talk]]) 11:40, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Great article. It has been needed. I made only slight changes, some AP style, some personal preferences. I added him to the List of UL people. I also notice he could be linked to 5 articles, one if which is a stub I started on the German Coast (I still need to develop that one). Nice to know someone out there with same interest in south Louisiana. I may hit you up for some advice/reviews later on. In the meantime, please see if I did [[French Louisiana]] justice. Thanks.

No problem.  While I have a strong dislike for links to blogs, I have yet to find that story anywhere else.  Still looking for a better source.  As far as protecting an article, that is usually a last resort, a page has to be hit so often that editors can't keep up with it (many times per day or even hour).  This looks like we can we stay on top of it.  <s>I'll ask that particular editor to explain the constant removal; if they have no reason we should start warning them.</s>  Cheers.

== Adminstrator question ==

My apologies for taking some time to reply to your inquiry about being a Wikipedia administrator.
# "Do you think that I am qualified to serve as an administrator?"
# "...based on my record?"
# "I've been active on Wikipedia since May".

My responses also contain some advice:
# I think that have potential to make an excellent administrator.  However,...
# your record at this point would probably be viewed as insufficient to become an administrator at this time.  While there are no official prerequisites, the Wikipedia [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Standards/A-D|community]] and [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Statistics|precedent]] have shown some basic criteria that you might strive to meet should you want to become an admin. 
# You have sufficient time on Wikipedia, but your number of edits and range of contributions to Wikipedia are limited.  In general, it seems that RFA's look for a minimum of 3000 edits in Main space and a range of other contributions that show an editor's familiarity with most aspects of Wikipedia (such as participation in [[WP:AFD|the deletion process]], vandal patrol, interaction with other editors, etc.) 

Suggested reading: 
*[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship|Request for adminship (RFA)]]

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:BellaBoudreaux1.jpg]]'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as <nowiki>{{fair use}}</nowiki> or <nowiki>{{fair use in|article name}}</nowiki>, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to [[:Image:BellaBoudreaux1.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to include a [[Help:Image_page#Fair_use_rationale|fair use rationale]].

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too.

==Unspecified source for Image:Amrusani.JPG==

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Amrusani.JPG]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} 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 {{tlp|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 [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{PAGENAMEE}}}} this link].

Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Bobby_charlesca1955.jpg]]'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our [[Wikipedia:Fair use criteria|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 [[:Image:Bobby_charlesca1955.jpg|the image description page]] and edit it to add {{tlx|di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, '''without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template'''.
# On [[Image talk:Bobby_charlesca1955.jpg|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, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|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.

== Picture problem ==

Hi,

could you please have a look at the discussion on my Commons userpage [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Carstor here]. There's a problem with the license of the pictures you sent me a while ago. Thanks, --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 20:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

: Hi again ... it's not possible to completely forbid any commercial use of the pictures, as every material on wikipedia has to at least fulfill the GFDL-terms. But as someone suggested on my discussion page at commons, it is possible to use a combined license (CC-NC and GFDL) which makes it very impractical to use these pictures in a commercial way. As far as I understand, one would have to provide a full copy of the GFDL-text as well as a reference to wikipedia and your name with the picture to use it. Maybe that's a solution you can live with? (BTW: You can also answer here, I'll check for new answers every now and then) --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 16:23, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
::''"one would have to provide a full copy of the GFDL-text"'' -this may change in future Versions of the GFDL, so there will be no warenty ;) Sincerely, --[[User:C-M|C-M]] [[User_talk:C-M|<sup>?!</sup>]] 11:37, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
::: I'm not familiar about intended new versions of the GFDL, but I think it wouldn't be a problem as the picture is licensed under the old version and I don't think there will be an automatical 'upgrade' for every GFDL-licensed content. In other words: As long as the author doesn't upgrade the license to the new version, the old version would still be valid. Or am I wrong here? --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 12:31, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
:::: " Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. ''If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.''" --[[User:C-M|C-M]] [[User_talk:C-M|<sup>?!</sup>]] 00:09, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
::Carstor, the combined license sounds good.  Can you tell me how to do this, or can you do it for me?
::Also, what if I also replaced the current images with slightly smaller, lower-resolution versions of the same images, which would look no different on a computer screen, but would not reproduce well in a book or magazine?
Sincerely, --[[User:Skb8721|Skb8721]] 16:26, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I changed the licenses to <nowiki>{{Cc-by-nc-sa-2.0-dual}}</nowiki> on the pictures in question. Uploading smaller versions of the pictures wouldn't help as the old, larger pictures would still be available in the file history. There might be a chance to ask an administrator on commons to delete the current versions to upload a completely new file. But as I'm not so familiar with commons I can't help you any further on this. Maybe ask someone there. All the best, --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 19:13, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
: Hi Skb8721, the pictures weren't deleted ''automatically''. As far as I see it, one of the commons admins wasn't aware that this combination of the two licences is valid. I could either ask some other admin to undelete the files now, or you could use the chance of the moment and upload smaller versions of your pictures. What do you think, we should do? --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 21:53, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Hello, I guess just using GFDL as the licence would have the same effect. As far as I understand the dual licence with cc-by-nc-sa just gave an alternative way to use the pictures for non commercial users. So for commercial uses the terms would be still the same if you just choose GFDL as a licencse and not GFDL and the Creative Commons licence. --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 06:53, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
::: Hi, it's me again ... sometimes I just don't understand what the people at commons are doing. I asked them to watch this discussion and wait for a result, but instead an administrator restored the old versions of the pictures. Do you still want to upload smaller pictures? If so, I would ask one of the german commons-adminstrators if it's possible to delete older versions of the pictures after uploading new versions. --[[User:Carstor|Carstor]] 13:04, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
::::Hello, I am the Commons adminstrator who undeleted your photos. The adminstrator who deleted them thought that it was a non-commercial only licence and therefore deleted them. I believe Cc-by-nc-sa-2.0-dual is a valid licence and would like you to consider keeping the original photos under that licence. Hope this clears things up.

== You are now a Reviewer ==

[[File:Wikipedia Reviewer.svg|right|130px]]
Hello. Your account has been granted the "{{mono|reviewer}}" userright, allowing you to [[WP:Reviewing|review other users' edits]] on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a [[WP:Pending changes|two-month trial]] scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not [[wp:autoconfirmed|autoconfirmed]] to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only [[Special:StablePages|a small number of articles]], similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at [[Special:OldReviewedPages]].

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious [[WP:VAND|vandalism]] or [[WP:BLP|BLP violations]], and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see [[Wikipedia:Reviewing process]]). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found [[WP:Pending changes|here]].

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. <!-- Template:Reviewer-notice --> [[User:Courcelles|Courcelles]] ([[User talk:Courcelles|talk]]) 18:02, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

== Wikipedia Campus Ambassadors wanted at LSU ==

Hi!  I'm leaving you this message because you are listed as a Wikipedian in Louisiana.  The [[Wikipedia:Ambassadors|Wikipedia Ambassador Program]] is currently looking for Campus Ambassadors to help with Wikipedia assignments at Louisiana State University, which will be participating in the Public Policy Initiative for the Spring 2011 semester.  The role of Campus Ambassadors will be to provide face-to-face training and support for students on Wikipedia-related skills (how to edit articles, how to add references, etc.). This includes doing in-class presentations, running workshops and labs, possibly holding office hours, and in general providing in-person mentorship for students.

Prior Wikipedia skills are ''not'' required for the role, as training will be provided for all Campus Ambassadors (although, of course, being an experienced editor is a plus).

If you live near Baton Rouge and you are interested in being a Wikipedia Campus Ambassador, or know someone else from the area who might be, please [[Special:EmailUser/Sross_(Public_Policy)|email me]] or leave a message on my talk page.--[[User:Sross (Public Policy)|Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation]] ([[User talk:Sross (Public Policy)|talk]]) 17:15, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

== eTown ==

I've also wondered about that name.  On their website (<www.etown.org>), they write about the award, stating, "that's what the 'e' in eTown is for," but that didn't really clear anything up, so I looked at their "About us>what is etown?"  They are not too specific about the name, but they go to great lengths to explain their philosophy, which I won't try to repeat here.  They DO use a lot of e-words: take a look and see if you can make sense of it, or if you prefer, their phone # is (303) 443-8696.  I may try to call myself if I have the time on Monday.

Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:RodBernard.jpg]]'''. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of [[Wikipedia:Non-free content|fair use]], but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the [[Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria|first non-free content criterion]] in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

# On [[File talk:RodBernard.jpg|the file discussion page]], write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, [[Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission|requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license]], or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If it is just the fair use image at the English Wikipedia, [[:File:Tabasco.svg]] you could have someone in your graphics department upload a newer image to that file page: "Upload new version of this file" under the file history section. That will replace it in the article. The old one can be deleted then. Is it in use in other language wikipedias as well? I should be able to upload to those once I have a copy of the newer .svg file.--Canoe1967 (talk) 01:05, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

::I bought a bottle, took a picture, cropped it to logo, and uploaded to commons. It shows in the article now. Feel free to overwrite the image page with a better one in .jpg format. [[Scalable Vector Graphics]] (.svg) files take a bit of work as they are created digitally from scratch usually.

:The file is in .svg format now. That is probably why you couldn't replace it before. [[Scalable Vector Graphics]] or .svg are tricky and complex to make and edit. You can upload a better one to english wikipedia and I can fix the fair use issues in the file. I have email turned on if you wish to click the email thingy on my main page. [[Special:EmailUser]] can be used as well. I can upload it and tag it correctly for you then. We did discuss the copyright at commons and since it was first published in the USA before 1923 with no major changes since then the copyright has expired and it is actually in the public domain. Your trademark to it is still protected and doesn't expire if it is renewed regularly, I think. No one can sell other condiments with a similar logo type thing. Trademark and copyright laws are different in this area. --[[User:Canoe1967|Canoe1967]] ([[User talk:Canoe1967|talk]]) 18:30, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
::OK, thanks, I'll e-mail you the image.  As for the logo being in the public domain, we have changed the logo since 1923, notably but not exclusively in 1927 and 1993. --[[User:Skb8721|Skb8721]] ([[User talk:Skb8721#top|talk]]) 18:36, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

The file [[:File:Mansonbookcover1.jpg]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:

==  [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[:File:EMsig1.jpg]] ==
[[File:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|alt=Notice|48px|]]

The file [[:File:EMsig1.jpg]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>unused, low-res, no obvious use</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[File talk:EMsig1.jpg|the file's talk page]].

Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated files}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Files for discussion|files for discussion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify -->

<span style="color:red;font-weight:bold;">This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the [[Help:Page history|page history]] of each individual file for details.</span> Thanks, [[User:FastilyBot|FastilyBot]] ([[User talk:FastilyBot|talk]]) 01:01, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

==Invitation to [[Wikipedia talk:Vital articles/Level/2#What to do about Modern history merge|discussion]] about removal of [[Modern history]] article==
[[File:Farm-Fresh eye.png|15px|link=|alt=]]&nbsp;You are invited to join the discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:Vital articles/Level/2#What to do about Modern history merge]]. Essentially, [[Modern history]] has been merged into other articles, and it's throwing those of us over at [[WP:VA]] for a bit of a loop. It'd be helpful to have some historians like you weighing in, and to have more discussion overall about such a significant change.
