Hi Member, {{welcome}} to wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions to Goleta Union School District and Brandon School. I hope we can keep Brandon School but unfortunately detailed lists of staff etc don't go down too well around here, but if you look at the wikiproject schools WP:PJSCH and maybe BEEFSTEW you can find things which are more acceptable to include. I think the Accountability Report Cards have a lot of usable info. Kappa 09:34, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Hi, might I ask what is the purpose of Member/Wikipedia Front Page? If that is a personal page, it should probably be in the user namespace, at User:Member/Wikipedia Front Page. Eric119 04:04, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Please do not move articles without discussing proposed moves on their talk page. The naming of national football teams in Wikipedia is standardised as "<countryname> national football team". -- Arwel 22:13, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Accra

What specifically in the Accra article do you think would benefit from a clean-up? While the article could benefit from expansion and perhaps division into sections, I'm not sure of the purpose of your tag. Warofdreams 23:40, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for helping to maintain the integrity of Wikipedia by tagging articles you see as requiring speedy deletion. Please note, though, that 'vanity' is not currently a criterion for speedy deletion, and such articles should be listed at votes for deletion. If you are not sure of the criteria for speedy delete, please look here. Denni☯ 03:24, 2005 July 16 (UTC)

List of well known mathematical formulas

Hello. I am wondering what you are hoping to achieve with the article List of well known mathematical formulas. I am afraid that Wikipedians will get into long discussions about which formulas are well known and which are not. We already have a List of equations and List of mathematical identities; see List of lists of mathematical topics for more lists related to mathematics. So, what do you think? -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 20:09, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose it will go somewhere. If you don't like it then put it on hte VfD page and let the community decide. --Member 02:45, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I can't really be bothered about it. However, somebody else nominated the article for deletion; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of well known mathematical formulas. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 13:25, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Anything faster than a one-hundered twenty eighth note?

Is there anything faster than a one-hundered twenty eighth note? --Member 01:14, 19 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I've never ever seen anything faster. Even the 128th note is extremely rare; it probably only occurs in highly ornamented, very slow pieces from the Baroque era, and a couple of the Beethoven piano sonatas (the Pathetique I think has them, and maybe the opus 111). Theoretically, of course, there is no limit to how many flags you could add. Hope that helps! Antandrus (talk) 01:20, 19 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV on Veganism

Hi member... Could you elaborate on the reasons for the NPOV tag you placed on Veganism? I and others have just gone through a long and tiring edit war with the veggie-brandishing hordes, during which the page was protected for like 10 days. The current version is what we came to by consensus, and I'd rather not upset the fairly delicate peace we have at the moment without a good reason. Cheers, Skinwalker 23:00, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

OK, no prob, as long as there's a good reason. I don't like that picture either. Please read the talk archives, and be careful; people can get really nasty over this issue. Cheers, Skinwalker 23:06, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Skinwalker, since when have you bothered about consensus? I am neither tired nor nasty.

Look at how you respond to individuals and their work at the very first occasion ; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Skinwalker#Vegan [1], all nature red in tooth and nail with your threats, aggressive and erroneous allegations. How many dishonest allegations of sock and meatpuppetry did we have to suffer in your attempts to silence consensus? You even went out of your way to try and organise a campaign against Canaen and block his wish to become an admin despite his effort to talk to you rationally [2]. It has been one big trail of venom and spite from you in face of many individuals attempts.

Re: Wikipedia:Reference desk/Science

Please note that gravity doesn't slow down our thoughts (where the heck did you learn that).

According to current scientific theory, thoughts would indeed proceed more slowly in stronger gravitational fields relative to an area of lesser gravitation (although the effect would be very slight unless the field were very strong). This is a consequence of Einstein's theory of general relativity, which enjoys broad support from scientists. Just in case you're curious. — Knowledge Seeker দ 01:47, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Crusade move

Hey, if you're going to move a page, never, ever, do it manually like you did with the crusades page. And if you're going to move a page, don't move it to a worse title. Adam Bishop 02:07, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well I assume what you did was try to move the page and discovered there was a redirect page already there, which had also been edited more than once...in that case you'd have to get an admin to delete the redirect. Copying and pasting the contents of one page into another means the edit history of the page is lost, which is bad. For the crusade article, it would also be a good idea to bring a move like this up on the talk page; that has also been done in the past and there is never any agreement about where to move it, so the best idea is to just leave it where it is. Adam Bishop 02:42, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

re. Direct domain

Yahoo and Google register domain names in the same way that anyone else does, by going to a domain name registrar and paying to register their domain names for a certain length of time (for example, the domain name "google.com" is registered through the registrar MarkMonitor until September 2011[3], when someone at Google will have to remember to send them some more money.) Who you need to go to, and how much it costs, varies according between top-level domains, but it doesn't cost much. Regarding your question, "Are there free or one time fee registars?", there is almost always an anual fee, although there are some sites that offer free domain names, typically in return for advertising - just type something like "free domain name" into google. -- AJR | Talk 23:50, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Request for edit summary

Thank you for your contributions. And I have a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries more often when you contribute. An edit summary helps others understand what you changed when checking the watchlist or the recent changes, and often times complements studying the diff. Think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. I hope you don't mind. :) Cheers – Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 00:55, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Sibelius

I'm still unsure what you mean, I suppose because I haven't used Finale very much. What is "mass" copy and paste as opposed to ordinary copy and paste? Can you describe what you're trying to do, instead of how you would do it in Finale? rspeer / ɹəədsɹ 19:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I left your Sibelius question unanswered. You select multiple measures in Sibelius by clicking at one end and shift-clicking at the other end. (If you click in the empty space in a measure, you'll be sure to select the whole measure.) Then you can use Edit/Copy and Edit/Paste, or the option-click shortcut, to copy the selected measures. rspeer / ɹəədsɹ 06:47, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just want you to be aware that there is a Main Page banner template. Whenever Wikipedia, as a community, has something to say to the public, it's on the Main Page. It's been there since 2004 and is edit protected (does not apply to you, of course). --hello, i'm a member | talk to me! 17:38, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've edited that template. You appeared to be referring to the new header box (which isn't a template, though perhaps it should be), as that's where you added the disclaimer. —David Levy 19:37, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:False potato beetle.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:False potato beetle.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 02:08, 21 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:NotionScorewriterProgramBigLogo.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 under fair use (see our fair use policy).

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.

License tagging for Image:H4-E1 Arms.png

Thanks for uploading Image:H4-E1 Arms.png. 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:

Fair use rationale for Image:Dospueblos.dp.11953.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Dospueblos.dp.11953.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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 the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Bueseal.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Bueseal.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. BetacommandBot 15:58, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your RFA

Hi there. I'm really sorry but I had to close your RFA early, per WP:SNOW, as it didn't have much chance to succeed at this time. However, I feel you are definitely on the right track. Check out some of the oppose and neutral comments as there's quite a bit of useful stuff in there, and maybe wait a few months & get some more experience. I'm sure that if you do that and give it another go in a while, you'll succeed. Some admins here have gained adminship after 3 or 4 tries. Really sorry, though - Alison ☺ 18:26, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Brandon School (Goleta, California)

A tag has been placed on Brandon School (Goleta, California) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art

First off, I apologize for the spam. You are receiving this message because you have indicated that you are in Southern California or interested in Southern California topics (either via category or WikiProject, or I happen to know personally).

I would like to invite you to the Los Angeles edition of Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art, a photography scavenger hunt to be held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) on Saturday, February 28, 2009, from 1:00 to 7:00 PM. All photos are intended for use in Wikipedia articles or on Wikimedia Commons. There will be a prize available for the person who gets the most photos on the list.

If you don't like art, why not come just to meet your fellow Wikipedians. Apparently, we haven't had a meetup in this area since June 2006!

If you are interested in attending, please add your name to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Loves Art#Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Please make a note if you are traveling to the area (train or plane) and need transportation, which can probably be arranged via carpool, but we need time to coordinate. Lodging is as of right now out of scope, but we could discuss that if enough people are interested.

Thank you and I hope to see you there! howcheng {chat} 00:48, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the addition of transfer speculation to Brad Friedel as we don't tend to include transfer speculation for players for the simple reason that it is speculation. Nothing is certain yet, wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Last week everyone was certain he was moving to Liverpool. When a transfer is made and a contract signed, then we can update the article to say he has moved. At the moment he hasn't moved and it is incorrect to update the article as such in my opinion.

A tag has been placed on Libgdx requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Legoktm (talk) 04:17, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article Simone Bienne has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication of notability, no significant coverage in reliable sources. Content currently largely unverifiable, possibly wrong, with WP:BLP issues.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Hi. I've converted several of the report links from inline-with-description to reference-footnote format. Where I thought the title was important to the text I left it as is. If you think anything should be changed, please let me know, and why. While I try to follow the guidelines, I am not a slave to a style-convention when it works against the purpose of the text, and I use "guidelines" as merely that, guides, not a straight-jacket.

As it stands, it is a fairly comprehensive review of the whole project, and has good links to other sources. Length is long (but not too long), and organization is far better than what was there before. I have considered splitting the article into two parts, probably a history part, and a current and future part. However, I'm resisting that as long as I can. As before, if you've suggestions, let me know.

As to your concern with headings, I don't know what you're referring to. The TOC was too long because I had too many subheads, and I got complaints about that. So, I revised the format to shorten the TOC, and merely bolded the subtopics in each section. This makes it far more readable and referenceable. I don't see what else I should do to improve things here, so if you've suggestions please let me know.

Thanks for your time and effort! Robert92107 (talk) 03:03, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear fellow Wikipedian, I would like to personally invite you to the March edition of the Wik-Ed Women meetup, which will take place on March 15, from 6-10 in the evening. It will occur at Los Angeles Contemporary Archive, 2245 E Washington Blvd, Los Angeles, California 90021 (downtown LA -- map). The building has a pink top with old signage for American Accessories, Inc. dba Princess Accessories (Photos [PDF]). There is on-site parking in the back, which also has an entrance. If you cannot attend in person, you are more than willing to work remotely, as we appreciate all help that you can provide. Finally, here is a link to the Facebook event, in case you want to invite friends, as we are always looking for new editors to help expand coverage of women on Wikipedia! I hope to see you there!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sierra Club, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sierra Nevada. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Hello! Voting in the 2023 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 11 December 2023. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
