Hi, and welcome to my talk page. If I leave a comment on your talk page, I will have it on my watchlist. If you'll be watching mine, please let me know.
Old discussions: November 6, 2003 - March 12, 2005
Presidents template
Nope...no hard feelings at all. I'm glad it worked out nicely at the end. :) --Jiang 09:44, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
"Little Hitler"
I notice you added this sentence to the Hitler (disambiguation) page under the "Little Hitler" section: "A court ruling has made this insult criminal in Alabama". Do you have a source for that? I couldn't find anything on google, and it seems blatantly unconstitutional to me. -R. fiend 13:55, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Help
Calling for backup. Help save List of incidents famously considered great blunders. A wonderfully useful article and the subject of a number of books and documentaries. Viciously attacked by deletionists. It does have a few supporters, but our voices are being drowned out. Please help save this article! - Pioneer-12 07:08, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
THANK YOU!!!
Your noticing the wiki origin of the one article prevented me from making a copvio entry (well for more than a couple minutes) on something else. I realllly hate fine print at the bottom of articles now... =)
Pournell Chart
Pournelle Chart
I know you're an inclusionist, so help us save the Pournelle Chart article at Misplaced Pages:Votes_for_deletion/Pournelle_Chart.
Emperor
You say that you're the emperor, eh? Well, then it must be so! Jaberwocky6669 June 28, 2005 23:25 (UTC)
Important VFD
Please see the VFD for commons:List of victims of the 1913 Great Lakes storm. This is of vital importance. This list and others like it are being pushed off of the entire Wikimedia project. It started at Misplaced Pages, where they were VFDd in favor of moving to Wikisource/Commons. Now they are being VFDd off Wikisource (they don't really belong there, since they are not original source texts), with people there saying they should be on WP/Commons, and it is also being VFDd on Commons, where people don't realize that Commons accepts texts (says so right on the Main Page). This will set a precedent for any user-created lists. -- BRIAN0918 22:48, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
User categorization
You were listed on the Misplaced Pages:Wikipedians/New Jersey page as living in or being associated with New Jersey. As part of the Misplaced Pages:User categorisation project, these lists are being replaced with user categories. If you would like to add yourself to the category that is replacing the page, please visit Category:Wikipedians in New Jersey for instructions. Al 15:36, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
It's Eszett, LOL.

George Allen
Before you expend all the effort to redo all the llnks, perhaps we should encourage a discussion on the topic of the proper name for the article, this will need to be done eventually, why not do it this week? I left a note on the article's talk page to start things off. I have no personal attachment to any article name, but I don't want people to have to go through a disambiguation page, or double redirects if this is the one person of this name most are searching for. Cheers, NoSeptember 00:01, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
The Da Vinci Code
Hi! Thanks for your edits at The Da Vinci Code - you seem to be re-adding material that was specifically split out to other articles in order to maintain the focus and size of this article. Your criticism trivia is covered at Criticisms of The Da Vinci Code in greater detail. Details about the movie are covered at The Da Vinci Code (film). Both of those "sub" articles are mentioned and linked to already. Are you proposing merging those sub-articles back into the primary one? Kuru 01:37, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
Gay vs. homosexual
Thank you for taking an interest in bettering the quality of LGBT articles. I am altering your "fix" of renaming "gay" to "homosexual" in some cases due to accuracy issues and common usage concerns. - Davodd 00:58, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Proposal on Notability
Because you're a member of the Association of Inclusionist Wikipedians, I'm notifying you that the inclusionist proposa Misplaced Pages:Non-notabilityl is in progress to define the role of notability in articles. Please help us make this successful! Also note the proposal Misplaced Pages:Importance is a deletionist proposla that seeks to officially introduce notabiltiy for the first time. Make sure this is defeated! --Ephilei 22:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:BrubeckQuartet.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:BrubeckQuartet.JPG. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use.
Please go to the image 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 '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 lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

adequacy.org
You might try the Wayback Machine to get a feel for this defunct website. The WP page apparently existed for four years before the AFD process. I suggest that you appeal the AFD for reinstatement of the page. --Ancheta Wis 06:41, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
Hey, let's chess
I hereby challenge you to a game of chess. When you're ready, let me know on my talk page. -Kevin 02:47, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Ok now! You'll find the board here. If you wanna be white, make a move. If you wanna be black, let me know on my talk page, and I'll make a move. I suggest you add the page to your watchlist so that you know when i've moved. I'm looking forward to it! --Kevin 00:35, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
My chess page is under threat of deletion! Please defend it for good reasons at Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/User:Guitarmankev1/Chess. Help me out here. - Kevin 17:29, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of How to keep an idiot busy for hours
An editor has nominated How to keep an idiot busy for hours, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/How to keep an idiot busy for hours and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. --Ng.j 18:47, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Image:Pretzel Logic album.jpg
Hello Calmypal, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as fair use. The image (Image:Pretzel Logic album.jpg) was found at the following location: User:Calmypal/Images. This image or media will be removed per statement number 9 of our non-free content policy. The image or media will be replaced with Image:NonFreeImageRemoved.svg , so your formatting of your userpage should be fine. The image that was replaced will not be automatically deleted, but it could be deleted at a later date. Articles using the same image should not be affected by my edits. I ask you to please not readd the image to your userpage and could consider finding a replacement image licensed under either the Creative Commons or GFDL license or released to the public domain. Thanks for your attention and cooperation. User:Gnome (Bot)-talk 05:33, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Image:DickParry.PNG
Thanks for uploading Image:DickParry.PNG. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 20:39, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
Edgar Allan Poe
Hello! I noticed your user page mentions you are a fan of Edgar Allan Poe. I'm starting up a Poe Portal and I'm looking for support/feedback. If you're interested, the portal also has a list of high priority Poe projects I'm looking for help on. Many thanks! --Midnightdreary 17:02, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

I need to talk to you about a matter that has very little to do with Misplaced Pages. Get onto AIM and message me. eszett 23:38, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:The First 20 Million Is Always the Hardest.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:The First 20 Million Is Always the Hardest.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the image 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 '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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Geniac (talk) 20:43, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Copyright problems with Image:Pinkfloyd-vegman.ogg
An image that you uploaded, Image:Pinkfloyd-vegman.ogg, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Copyright problems because it is a suspected copyright violation. Please look there if you know that the image is legally usable on Misplaced Pages (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), and then provide the necessary information there and on its page, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. kotra (talk) 02:15, 28 December 2007 (UTC)Orphaned non-free media (Image:Pinkfloyd-vegman.ogg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Pinkfloyd-vegman.ogg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. 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 Misplaced Pages (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 Misplaced Pages 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. BJBot (talk) 20:07, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Image:NixonResignationLetter.gif
A tag has been placed on Image:NixonResignationLetter.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.
