Hi Terry! Congratulations -- this must have taken ages! --SeanWillard 02:53, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

My computer must have been caching badly that day, I looked on the talk page and didn't see anything the first time through. Thanks for the explanation. -- nae'blis 20:28, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I added the link back in, but made a notation the link is in Korean. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 22:01, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree — the indiscriminate capitalization of names by Japanese people (or companies) is annoying; and, so much so, that we have WP:MOS-JA#Capitalization of words in roman script which addresses WP:MOSCAPS and WP:MOSTM in the context of Japanese names. So, for Wikipedia, feel free to de-cap words, just like your personal song collection. Neier 15:09, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

To rename an article, there is a "move" tab at the top of the page beside the edit tab, etc. When it is finished, it automatically creates a redirect from the old name to the new name. In the move summary, I always put something like Remove stylistic capitalizaion, per [[WP:MOSCAPS]] and [[WP:MOSTM]].

Most of the time, the move tab works fine; but, occasionally, there may be an article or an older redirect at the new name, and you cannot complete the move (a red error message will appear). In that case you have to go to Requested Moves and ask an admin to take care of it. Capitalization fixes qualify as speedy moves, so, there is no need to go through the 5-day debate process on the article's talk page.

There is more help on moving pages at Help:Moving a page if I've left anything out. I'm glad that you'll be able to fix those pages which drive you nuts. :-) If you encounter any opposition, pointing to the pages I linked above should resolve any conflicts. Neier 22:05, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

{{helpme}} I'm having trouble adding an image link in an infobox.

See this page for an example. The link to the album cover (the same JPG as used in the article Seo In-Young) resolves to a page to add the image, rather than to Image:Inyoungalb.jpg.

I'm following the documentation for Template:Infobox Album, and patterned this off of the Hitori Yori Futari article, where the same syntax works fine.

Clues?

For the image size of the cover, it is not accepting 200px, so you just have to remove the 'Cover size' line. I have fixed it for you :) Have a nice day! E ^talk 07:11, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

No problem. Don't hesitate to contact me with any problems you may have. E ^talk 22:56, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your note about maintaining the quality of the Talk page for this article. I should probably just forget about this article since it is a relatively minor piece, but the conflict of interest, POV and belligerent stance of Castoroil101 with me and other contributors just won't let me go. I was tempted to ask for comments on Castoroil101's behavior, but that seems like a lot of effort. Thanks again.Silverchemist 06:26, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

Hi Terry, I just wanted to draw your attention to the 2 disambig pages concerning Katrina (I accidentally stumbled across the discussion). I re-worked them both a bit and was hoping this would address your concerns. Let me know. R. Baley 22:42, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:AmdahlLogo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media 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 all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 14:40, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

actually the {{reflist}} template was created to accommodate the <references/> function and is much more appropriate for this article per wp:foot. also i couldn't find anywhere that it is 'obsolete' or otherwise deprecated. cheers! --emerson7 | Talk 06:40, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

The narration and mistakes in the series are trivia and unencyclopedic. Therefore I am removing them from the article. --Tone 18:44, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Here: WP:IINFO and more specific, Wikipedia:Television episodes. Things like mistakes go to either a separate wiki or a website, dedicated to the series. Regards. --Tone 19:11, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Terry, thanks for the category suggestion for my user page. If you create another one, perhaps "Wikipedian Patent Lawyers Who Edit Articles Relating to the NBC Sci-Fi Series 'Heroes'," please keep me in mind.  ;) --Littlebluedog 19:39, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

It appears so. There's a 99% chance 69.22.219.18 is Tlthe5th (talk · contribs), who I've been involved in a dispute with at Tony Alamo. I left a final warning at Tlthe5th's talk page. Thanks for the head's up. · jersyko talk 14:21, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the reference clean up. I was going to do that myself, but haven't had the time. I'm going to name them out properly tonight (hopefully)--Torchwood Who? 08:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Per WP:DATES, British date formatting is appropriate here. Autoformatting doesn't work for unregistered users (i.e., the majority of readers). I confess I got this wrong earlier ... richi 22:42, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! I didn't know how to do that but wanted it done very much! User:Ronaldloui (hmm, how do I timestamp this...?)

yeah, those images justified right look nice too. I sort of like the band of images on the main page even though they have no names (they give a nice overview of the diverse population that has been a hallmark of the school), but will endeavor to distribute the images across the subordinate. i am headed into the M's of the alumni directory, but the eyes hurt (small print). i've started doing citation counts to weed the lightweights from the heavy scholars. it's a good exercise -- i had no idea harnish, bear, or tseng were punahou, even though they are my academic colleagues and i have their books and papers! i've even skipped their colloquia... but there will always be problems, such as jm chu who writes books and is a fulbright, but does not get cited. in the end, the 2-page alumni solution is good because everyone can aspire to the second page, but really only a few names belong on the front (and the correlation with individual wiki pages is not actually all that good! -- compare the commander of the 117th at normandy vs. a recent graduate who has a college filmmaking award -- the latter has a wiki page, but doesn't even make my 2nd alumni page). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.143.28.220 (talk) 22:59, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

I was thinking it is odd that there is no image of a double helix in the article....if Watson had not played a role in discovery of the double helix, he probably would have led an unremarkable life, we probably would not have heard of him and Wikipedia would not have an article about him. --JWSchmidt 23:54, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

You made minor edit on Green Island, Queensland, thanks. Not sure if you noticed in that article's talk page that I've been worrying away at Aboriginal knowledge economy/ intellectual property implications and ramifications of postings such as this - given the GFDL we agree to when making such entries.

Seeking you've been categorised, or have categorised yourself as a Wikipedia intellectual property lawyer, I was wondering if you might be able to lend comment, perhaps assist mitigate/mediate GFDL regarding traditional knowledge/indigenous intellectual property??

I refer you particularly to Wikipedia_talk:General_disclaimer#Traditional_Knowledge, and Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#Traditional_Knowledge_Disclaimer. With thanks, in appreciation!! Bruceanthro (talk) 00:40, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:ParkJungAh-Yeah-cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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 it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 21:47, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

I would appreciate your co-operation with regards to improving the James Watson article, and the stubborn refusal of Landerman to allow edits of the topic until he see's fit. Thankyou.--Koncorde (talk) 22:54, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

I certainly understand why Leo Stoller is associated with "vexatious litigation", but that hardly qualifies as a category of person in List of Jewish American businesspeople. It didn't look very professional for Wikipedia, so I reverted your change. No offense -- don't sue! ;-) All the best, – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 13:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

We have similar problems with people who are notable primarily for having been victims of crimes, or having committed crimes. Few people want to be classified as "victims" or "criminals", and if that becomes an official category anywhere on Wikipedia, people will want to add Bill Gates to "criminals" for his arrest for driving without a license. Sometimes it's safest to be least specific, unfortunately, and use "other". Anyway, thanks for keeping an eye on all this. Out of curiosity, have you met Stoller? All the best, – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 17:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, yes, I have some good refs for this article, and it would be easy to reference each and every one of the statements made in the article, but Wiki guidelines make it clear that one shouldn't reference every statement, but only those likely to be challenged. Excessive references don't add anything to articles but only clutter them up and are likely to irritate the reader and discourage him from checking Wiki references in future.

Since the provided references are fairly short, it's pretty easy to confirm any of the statements made in the article anyhow. If there's some statement in particular you have doubts about, let me know and I'll point you to the appropriate reference. Regards, Gatoclass (talk) 23:28, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, yeah, as you noticed, I already included those :)

If you have an interest in the subject, you might want to take a look at the informational brochure I have now included at the top of the reference list. Some interesting info and very nice photos of some of the company's equipment. They sure built some big valves! Gatoclass (talk) 01:52, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
