Kind of back is better than 'not back at all'. Your good friend "you know who" returned after realising his main IP was past it's 6 months block. I asked Admin Daniel for assistance. His case was re-opened and his IPs blocked for another 6 months. Look at the edit history of Iron Maiden... particularly at the edits of Mr Hooks21101 from early in November. He became a bit of a comic relief moment around here. Especially his comments on my static IP talk page. I have expressed concern to Daniel about 2 other editors. One who's been frequenting Phish related articles. And the other who has been editing the List of Iron Maiden band members article recently. I believe they may have a "hand inside them" working their edits. But time will tell. Nice to see you back. Have a nice day! 156.34.224.2 (talk) 00:50, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there; thanks for the welcome back. I was busy with work, concerts, and weekend stuff since the time I left. With it getting colder now and darker earlier, I am in more often, so I will be around. Don't know how much. Keep me abreast of anything like this ... if nothing else, it is good for a laugh.

Check out the image uploads from Authrom (talk · contribs). Lots of logos... self-made full release claims. Is that legit? 156.34.215.188 (talk) 02:32, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And... since I have your attention... Mr Fnlayson ( normally a quality editor ) is having a bit of a struggle with WP:FAIR over on the Lynyrd Skynyrd article. It's a standard "album covers aren't fair-use here" situation. I added very clear edit summaries to help him to understand but he hasn't read the policy thoroughly and does not understand it correctly. Some assistance next time your about. thanks! 156.34.215.188 (talk) 02:58, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have been away for awhile, so I may be rusty here, but here is my thoughts on the logos: I personally do not see the purpose of logos for lesser-known subjects. Popular logos, such as the one for Google.com, should be used, but when it comes to bands and such, I find their inclusion nothing more than vanity. I find the inclusion of self-made logos even more disconcerting, since it is bordering line copyright infringement. Looking through WP:FU and WP:LOGOS (which is just a guideline) seems to come to the same conclusion. Also, if there is no firm, discernible, well-used logo for a band and this user has just made up logo images in order to make the article stand out (in lieu of a band photo), then I think the images are even less helpful to Wikipedia and would break policy (WP:FU). Anyway, that is all mostly my opinion. My suggestion would be to bring the topic up for discussion at WP:FU or WP:LOGOS or, if you don't think you will get a fair shake due to IP-bias, look for someone in those talk pages that seem knowledgeable enough and contact them directly (Perhaps even User:Betacommand, though he is often busy). Feel free to link this discussion/reply as well if you feel it would help. -- moe.RON ^{Let's talk | done} 20:41, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've been on an extended vacation from Wikipedia. But I am finding more free time in the evenings and will try to get back onboard as often as I can. I see you haven't been around much yourself. Hope you had a good year and hope to see you around soon. Cheers and take care! Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 02:54, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
