Hi, I'm not gonna be too long. I just want to warn you that you are using many fair use images on your user pages.

Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the ] status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Misplaced Pages (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the ]. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading ], and then use a tag such as {{tlp|Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at ]. See ] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "]" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on ]. If you have any questions please ask them at the ].

==Vandalism warnings==

I'm sorry. My understanding, from a question I asked on the help desk a while ago, was that if the next vandalism was not on the same day as the last warning, another test4 was appropriate before going to AIV. It seems that there isn't a real consensus about how to handle the escalation of test messages if the vandalism is spread over many days, which led to our conflict. I'm a vigilant RC patroller and am pretty familiar with how test messages and AIV work, though. -] 00:59, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

:I'm with ya. Sadly, I don't think it's bad enough for the admins to consider it. (You can kind of gauge the process at ].) Apparently, it takes upwards of ten vandalizations per day (or one specific IP user causing trouble) to get an article sprotected. It's been sprotected a few times so far, but always pulled within a few days. I wish there were a process to make sprotection permanent - a petition or some such - cause there have been unbelievably few IP address users who've made useful contributions to the article. (And, more often than not, most of the non-IP users have been recent sign-ups who apparently signed up just to vandalize the article.)

== Your signature ==

Hello there, I was wondering if you would please modify your signature to conform to the guidelines laid out at ]. The general guidelines are that signatures shouldn't contain images, they shouldn't contain unnecessary internal links or ''any'' external links, and they shouldn't be unnecessarily long in Wiki source. The reasoning for this final bit is that overly long signatures tend to overwhelm the actual comments in edit mode, making it hard to track down and respond to specific comments. You can fix your signature by removing any images and external links, any unnecessary links (like links to Wikipedian organizations, articles, or subpages in userspace), and removing excessive color, font, and formatting code. Thank you. --] 19:59, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

*Merge/lengthen the many character articles
*Improve the South Park main page
