Templar History Magazine

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Templar History Magazine, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

A different outlet?

I haven't got the information handy, but there is a Masonic wiki mentioned by AASR SJ on their website. It has nothing like the policy structure here, and is also much more focused on its subject. Regardless of what stays or goes here, that wiki would be a good place for these articles to go. MSJapan 20:31, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I didn't know about it.Frumious Bander 20:47, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Just as a policy note....

I should have followed this up earlier, but if you happen to be an individual who is either writing or contributing to an article about yourself or something you are involved in, you might want to read WP:COI. MSJapan 18:57, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Freemasonry FAC

I thought you might be interested in this. We're nominating Freemasonry to be a featured article, which means that by community consensus, the article will be on e of the best on WP. If you think you fell qualified to voice an opinion, see Talk:Freemasonry for details. MSJapan 04:26, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:KOTN.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:KOTN.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BigDT 06:10, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
