Project updates...[edit]
- I have done some updating to the WP:SCN, added some new articles, added a "to do" list to the top of the project, and fixed up some categories and assessment stuff. I suggest we should all pick one article at a time, or at most two, to work on bringing up to Featured Article status. You could give input on the project's talk page...

Hi. See, there's this user, Bantosh, who vandalized the Santa Claus page. Under the edit comment, he put "add internal links", so nobody caught it. After fixing the vandalism, I checked the user page, and saw you, a sysop, had already talked to him about a seperate incident, and decided to say something. So yeah. I'm new and don't know what to do in a situation as such, so here I am.Vsavage 23:33, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
- Hi. The damage you reversed ("totally real holiday") was actually done here by user:72.68.85.193 and not by Bantosh. Good work though. - Tεxτurε 20:10, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Confidence Tricks[edit]
WikiProject Confidence Tricks You recently edited an article that was about confidence tricks. I'm currently proposing an WikiProject to cover confidence tricks, and I'm curious to see if you're interested. If you are, please check out the proposal page, and join if you wish!

I'm not as active as I once was but I do follow these kinds of articles. I'll check back and see how far this has progressed. Hopefully I can be of some help down the road. - Tεxτurε 18:54, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (Image:Edit.JPG)[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Edit.JPG. 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. BetacommandBot 21:17, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- Hah! Can you say "Recursive"?
- The image is owned by Wikimedia... - Tεxτurε 21:14, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
OT VIII[edit]
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article OT VIII, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}
to the top of OT VIII. Cirt (talk) 01:37, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Image permission problem with Image:Rupert king diving suit 03.JPG[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:Rupert king diving suit 03.JPG. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the image (or other media file) agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
- make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
- Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to [email protected], stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the image to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the image has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to [email protected].
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the image's use on the article or articles where it is included. 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 provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Images lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ChrisiPK (talk) 20:21, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
