Hello Joseph! Welcome to wikipedia! I hope you can make useful contributions and have fun. About the article you created, maybe you should consider moving it to a new page, where THE does not appear in the title. Wiki's naming conventions (see How to edit pages - link in Main Page) preffers names without Thes, for obvious reasons. You find Move Page in your side bar, and then... follow the instructions. Any question, please just ask in my Talk Page. Cheers, Muriel Gottrop 16:11, 1 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Joseph, thanks for all the work on the NFL page. Have you noticed PREVIEW, so that you don't have to save multiple iterations in a short period? This eases the burdon on the databse servers... Rick Boatright 05:26, 30 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Re NFL disambiguation, I've tried twice. Feel free to try. I did went through and edited EVERY occurance of NFL to the National Foolball League and then created the redirect diambiguation page so that folks searching for NFL could find the National Forensic League. Why don't YOU try it. Right now, NFL is a redirect. Go ahead and creat the disabiguation and I'll back you up. Rick Boatright 03:16, 31 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Collection agency

In response to your having placed that To meet Wikipedia's quality standards, this article or section may require cleanup. notation on the Collection Agency article.

I would like to say that if you read the article you'll notice that it is encyclopediatic. The only exception to that is the portion entitled "How to deal with a Collection Agency", which is wrote specifically for the purpose of Enlightening someone on (oddly enough) on how to deal with a collection agency.

Now if you have a problem with there being a single portion of the article being advisory, may I suggest that you read some other articles on Wikipedia? While doing so you may note that other articles are wrote much like my own. Encyclopediatic, with a small advisory section either at the end, or in some other limited section. Seanr451 06:20, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the "advice" section -- I'm not entirely convinced that the section (or any "advice" section) belongs in an encyclopedia article, but that's not the real reason I put the "cleanup" notice on the article. My main concern was that the language of the section was fairly informal (frequent use of "you", for instance). Of course, I'm not the arbiter of these things; I'd recommend bringing up the matter on the article's talk page. Thanks for writing. best, jdb ❋ (talk) 06:25, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And yet I have seen sections just like that, both on Wikipedia, and in print encyclopedias. Seanr451 06:54, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I moved This Side of Paradise (Star Trek episode) to This Side of Paradise (Star Trek). For future reference, if you move an episode of Star Trek, DO NOT put "episode" after the name. Just put "(Star Trek)". All the others are the same, I'd like keeping them in a similar format. Thank You Cyberia23 17:17, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)

UrbEx Talk Page

I'd appreciate it if you stopped restoring the page on Urbex Talk that contains personal details ahout me. This information is not public, it was posted by Ben Brockert (I've already filed a complaint with a sysop against him) and I do not want it public. These are details of my personal life that have nothing at all to do with Urban Exploration and therefore do not belong in an encyclopedia article about that subject.

My apologies. I'm not a forum regular and had assumed that if the information had been posted to WP, it was well-known. jdb ❋ (talk) 16:44, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Image copyright

Most of your images are very well tagged, I just noticed a few that need some work. The following I don't know if you took them and what license they fall under:

The following I assume you took yourself, but haven't indicated so on the image itself.

Once you clear up the source/license, you can remove the PUI and no source tags, but I request that you don't delist them from WP:PUI, so that other people can confirm that they are sourced and licensed correctly. Cheers. Burgundavia (✈ take a flight?) 07:08, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I have no idea why I tagged the stadium and the Amano picture as yours. I did search on your contribs and found them, and forgot to check the uploader. Cheers. Burgundavia (✈ take a flight?) 20:52, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

Thomas Cole

I was fortunate to pull a large package of fine art off of suprnova.org (before it went down) that someone had put together from various websites, doing most of my work for me. I am working on a Visual list of American artists and those images were part of that work. I have about 7 more artists to finish from that archive but the rest of the artists that are blank will have to be done manually. I do however use the upload.pl script that is provided over on wikicommons to automatically upload the photos. Cobalty 30 June 2005 06:14 (UTC)

This was an issue at one point but was cleared up when the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Corel in The Bridgeman Art Library, Ltd., Plaintiff, - versus - Corel Corporation, et ano., Defendants. The court ruled that while it takes skill to create an accurate reproduction of a two dimensional artwork, it requires no artistic merit. Therefore, the reproduction is not subject to copyright. If the photographer were to crop the image or change the colors, then they would have altered a public domain image in a way that could be copyrighted. An example of this would be Marcel Duchamp's L H O O Q (1919). The image of the Mona Lisa is public domain, however, Mona Lisa with a moustache is not.

Thanks for posting the BIB photo

Thanks for uploading the BIB photo! I used to work for AMC Theatres, which is why I know all about BIBs (they have a lot of them hooked up behind the concession stands at all AMC megaplexes) but obviously since I don't work there any more, I can't easily get into the syrup room to get a picture.

It's hilarious how most people have no idea where their soft drinks come from. Well, at least now they can learn about it on Wikipedia.

Dusty Rhodes - Wrestling Observer awards

Hi there. Just to clarify, the Wrestling Observer awards are not vandolism. I am a regular Wikipedia user with over 3500 edits and have never vandolised a page. :) Other big names have also won "negative" awards from the Observer, including Hulk Hogan and Gorilla Monsoon. The awards are all summarised in the January 16 2006 edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Whilst I will re-add the awards, it's good to see people are keeping an eye on things!

Relaxed > Disturbed

Wiki-star: I am kind of loosing my cool right now. You mentioned within the NFL Article that the external links are more confusing than helpful. Could you please better explain yourself so that we can get the problem fixed. And please make sure that your explanation is logical, as i am finding out that many people are picking on newbies, and i am getting irritated. Thank you very much.

Prestige and academic boosterism

You wrote:

Hear, hear. If the word "prestige" (and all its variants) were striken from all of the Ivy League articles, Wikipedia would be a better place

Please help with this. Talk of "prestige" is a contagious disease, because academic boosterism is competitive. The commonest defense of rankingcruft and assertions of prestige is that "the article on [rival] has it." Things are in better shape than they were a year ago, but it would be very helpful if more editors would assist in toning down peacock terms and trimming gross boosterism. I've been trying with some success at least to get rankings and such out of the lead sections and into separate sections with titles like "ranking and reputation;" to keep down the total number of items in such sections; and (most important) to remove or balance selective citations of rankings in which a university happens to rank favorably. (You can almost bet that if an article mentions the number of Rhodes scholars, that is an institution that has had relatively few Nobel laureates... and vice versa). Typically, boosters will revert if only one editor removes a brag--suspecting I suppose that its removal is a hostile act by a booster of a rival school--but may not if it's clear that more than one editor is participating.

Kudos on the Luntz catch

Assuming it was you. I've done work on that material, attempting to make it more NPOV, and never realized it was lifted from his own site.

TidBITS

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article TidBITS, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

==File source problem with File:Fine-hall-princeton.jpeg==

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Fine-hall-princeton.jpeg. 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, 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, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

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 this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 08:21, 7 January 2009 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shizhao (talk) 08:21, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
