Hello! Thanks for the "news" about the fireworks explosion, but it is probably not something we should keep in a city article, it's not that important in the long run. And... see mycomments on it. I hope I did not distract you from future writing! I do not mean to. --grin✎ 23:02, 2004 Aug 7 (UTC)

Fair use? Public Domain? ...

Hi! Thanks for uploading the following image:

Hi Marc,

I notice that there's a lot of untranslated German material in this article - are you translating it? --ChrisO 23:28, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Similarly, I'm noticing that, well, no offense, but your English needs some work. If you want to drop a note onmy talk page when you're all done with the preliminary translation, I'll go through and copyedit and tidy things up. --John Owens(talk) 23:51, 2005 Mar 19 (UTC)

I'm now ready with translation. There are a lot of difficulties because some words are not available in the English language, so I had to do "word-to-word translation". It was really difficult to translate.

Hi Marc, I think the article really isn't neutral. At least you should clarify who said what -- the press statements of CDU/CSU discuss the visa "affair" (I don't think even this title is correct) in a totally different light than the press statements of The Greens. Maybe a good idea would be to write the article in the German Wikipedia first, then waiting until a consensus forms there about it's contents, and only translating it after that? --till we☼☽ |Talk 13:32, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)

"Tillwe" I witnessed that you are a pro-Green and SPD-supporter because you have worked on many articles about the Greens / SPD. That means the statement above is biased.

Hello, Marcschulz. Thank you for nicely expanding the article. Happy editing. :-) --PFHLai03:22, 18 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Marcschulz –

I'm trying to get some discussion going on two proposals regarding thecurrent events page, but so far have gotten little to no response. Since you have recently edited the current events page, I'm asking for your input on these two proposals:

• One proposal (this is the big one) involves putting the daily events from the current events pages into article-templates, a lá the monthly pages from 2003 to 2005, as well and having a consistent number of recent days on the current events page instead of a monthly archive. This would allow for thecurrent events page and the respective month pages to be updated simultaneously without the monthly archival. For more, seethe current events talk page.

• Another proposal involves merging the content of the regional current events pages (such asBritish and Irish current events andCanadian current events) into fewer continental articles. For more, seethe current events WikiProject talk page.

Your input on one or both of these issues would be appreciated.joturner22:16, 4 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploadingImage:WWM.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under afair use license. However, the image is currentlyorphaned, meaning that 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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 fair use images not used in anyarticles will be deleted after seven days, as described oncriteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.meco19:23, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploadingImage:Bitch.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used underfair use but there is noexplanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to theboilerplate 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 tothe image description page and edit it to include afair 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 '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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described oncriteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at theMedia copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr14:04, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploadingImage:Bitch.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions atWikipedia:Non-free content and then go tothe image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to ourCriteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at theMedia copyright questions page. Thank you. —Angr18:09, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you editedUtah Republican Party, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation pageJames Evans (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles.Read theFAQ • Join us at theDPL WikiProject.
