Congratulations on your fifth featured article. doctor k 20:55, 13 May 2007 (UTC) |
Re: Battle of Alton
Hey mate! I didn't realize that you were still actively editing. I thought you had been devoured by that monster we call real life. Anywho, I'd be happy to take a look at Battle of Alton for you. No guarantees that I'm going to be quick about it, as I'm also reviewing Mechanical filter and Rosetta Stone. --Cryptic C62 · Talk 14:10, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for reviewing the Peace Candle GAN. Glad you liked the article! — Hunter Kahn 16:11, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
Copano Bay
Hello. You failed to notify me about your GA review of the article Copano Bay. You did quite a terrible job on the review, I would ask that you refrain from reviewing articles if you are only willing to give 5 minutes to it. I will now renominate. Thanks for nothing.--William S. Saturn (talk) 18:48, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with my review. Are unclear as to the concerns I have with the article? Are you unclear as to how it does not pass the criteria? Are you unclear as to how to improve article from here? Deciding that my criticisms are invalid is different from saying that I wrote a poor review.
- I certainly spent more than five minutes reading, copyediting and reviewing the article (by my count it was at least 38 minutes: from first to related edit); but more time will not fix the deep problems that exist. Copano Bay is not even close to GA quality by my estimation. Also, I am not required to notify you of the review personally (as far as I know). Presumably you are watching the article's talk page. that seems to have been good enough.-- Rmrfstar (talk) 19:50, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
Palio di Siena
Hello you seem to have missed the obvious inline citations at the bottom of the article Palio di Siena. Can you please re-review the article or justify why you think there are " still no in-line citations" in Palio di Siena. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiefmanzzz (talk • contribs)
Notes ^ http://www.ilpalio.siena.it/ ^ Il Palio.org FAQ ^ "75 seconds to Victory". Retrieved 21 Sept 2009. ^ http://www.ilpalio.org/vittorie.htm
- Yes, I did miss those inline citations. I was wrong, however, those four are simply not enough. According to the GA criteria, it should provide, "...in-line citations from reliable sources for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons...". Thus, I'd estimate that a *lot* more citations will be necessary. Do you disagree? If so, I will certainly look at the article again. -- Rmrfstar (talk) 02:34, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
- Hello Rmrfstar, I have enhanced the references to reliable sources by copying the references from the Italian Wikipedia page http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palio_di_Siena which is already a FEATURED article. I have the taken time to translate a fair bit of information from the Italian page into English. Can you please review once more and inform me of the progress. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiefmanzzz (talk • contribs) 23:21, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. Sorry. It's a good effort, but it's not what GAN is looking for... Rather, the citations need to be in-line. Almost every statement of the article needs to be tied to an individual reference, preferably with page numbers. Do you see all of the numbers sprinkled throughout Peace Candle? This is a substantial amount of work, and the problem is not easily fixed. -- Rmrfstar (talk) 23:29, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Fonteynsylvia.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Fonteynsylvia.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a 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. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will 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. Skier Dude (talk 03:07, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:EinsteinVishniac.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:EinsteinVishniac.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:28, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Sylkentsav1.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Sylkentsav1.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 "file" 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 "File" 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. Courcelles 08:15, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Huh?
Could you explain your edit summary from this diff, please? The commas were outside any math formatting commands both before and after the edit in question, so I don't see how "the commas should not be mathy" explains your preference for ugly wrong-size bitmapped-image formatting. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:59, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Hippocratic Corpus listing
Hi! I see that the listing of treatises is due to your work in 2006--thanks! What I'm wondering is if you can remember where you got the ordering you followed in this list. As far as I know, the treatises have never been numbered in any standard way, but as I contemplate sprucing up the article I'm thinking about what ordering might be best. Wareh (talk) 19:20, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Project Hippocrates
The article Project Hippocrates has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- No evidence of notability
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. Rathfelder (talk) 22:31, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability 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. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
