Welcome to wikipedia and thanks for your recent contributions on knotting articles.  I encourage you to take a look at [[WP:KNOTS|WikiProject Knots]] for some background and informal guidelines regarding knotting articles on wikipedia.

== Stopper Knot Images ==

Hi,

I would just like to ask for a consideration regarding these images [[Image:StopperKnot.GIF]]‎, and [[Image:StopperKnot1.GIF]]. I have used them in this article, [[Stopper_knots]]. If you would be so kind enough to let it stay here at wikipedia for illustration purposes. I have formally asked a permission from the owner of these images and in which I was also given permission to edit it.

thnks. [[User:Bu b0y2007|Bu b0y2007]] 08:08, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
*{{user|Bu b0y2007}}
:Hello. Thanks for contributing to the 'pedia and getting permission to use the images. Unfortunately Wikipedia cannot accept images that are for Wikipedia use only, or are for non-commercial use only. (This seems counter-intuitive, but that's the way it is.) See [[WP:CSD]], Images, criteria #3 for more details. Thanks, [[User:Fang Aili|Fang Aili]] <sup>[[User talk:Fang Aili|<font color="green">talk</font>]]</sup> 14:00, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

== WP:Fishing and [[WP:FISH]] ==
Hi there. Congrats for launching the WP:Fishing. I thought I would never see this proposal ever realized. Anyway, I think [[WP:FISH]] can be considered as another parent project of this one as it is a parent project of [[WP:AQF]] which covers the fishkeeping hobby. Seems like a similar scope. What do you think? --[[User:Melanochromis|Melanochromis]] 07:22, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
: You can redirect a page to another by using the redirect command. It's another icon near your signature icon when you edit a page. To give you some example, the page [[WP:FISHING]] now redirects to "[[Wikipedia:Do you ever go fishing?]]". --[[User:Melanochromis|Melanochromis]] 08:03, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

:Sure, it makes sense for the WikiProject to have the shortcut.  Cheers! [[User:TenOfAllTrades|TenOfAllTrades]]([[User_talk:TenOfAllTrades|talk]]) 13:08, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

== Thanks for the Welcome to the Fishing Portal ==

Bu b0y2007 -- I note you are from Baguio City.  I spent 1980-83 at Clark AB in Angeles City.  Have spent many days in Baguio-A great mountain city.  My fishing experiences in the PI were mostly saltwater.  We'd take Banca boats off the beaches and fish for anything that would bite.  I remember catching lots of Snapper.  My favorite places were the Capones Islands off San Miquel, Hundred Islands and off the beaches of Bauang, La Union.  I really enjoyed my time the Philippines.

== Really should maintain Separate Notes and References sections ==

Re your edits on Fly Tying

See [[WP:Citing sources]] see relevant guidelines below

<blockquote>
Maintaining a separate "References" section in addition to "Notes"
It can be helpful when footnotes are used that a separate "References" section also be maintained, in which the sources that were used are listed in alphabetical order. With articles that have lots of footnotes, it can become hard to see after a while exactly which sources have been used, particularly when the footnotes also contain explanatory text. A References section, which lists citations in alphabetical order, helps readers to see at a glance the quality of the references used.

== [[:Image:SLU.jpg]] ==
Hello Bu b0y2007, an automated process has found an image or media file tagged as nonfree media, such as [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]]. The image ([[:Image:SLU.jpg]]) was found at the following location: [[User:Bu b0y2007]]. 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]].

Hi there. Just wanted to let you know that the fishing portal needs updates. I just took the liberty of updating it from May2007  to June2007 but this portal is still lagging one month behind though.

==WikiProject Golf==
Hi {{PAGENAME}}<br>
I thought that a way to further improve the golf articles on Wikipedia is for the whole project to work together towards a goal. An example of this could be a certain number of good articles in so many months, or to create the project's first ever featured article. If you are interested, come to the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Golf|talk page]] and discuss it. And hopefully through this the project can continue to work towards several goals in the near future.

;Welcome
;;Since this is the first issue of the [[WP:SCUBA]] Newsletter, I wanted to take a moment to welcome you as a charter member. We are starting a project with the goal of organizing an enormous amount of information, but as participation in [[WP:SCUBA]] expands, so will our editing power through collaboration. Please feel free to invite other interested [[Wikipedia:Wikipedians|Wikipedians]] to join our project.
</tr></td><tr><td>
;Categorization of [[WP:SCUBA]] Articles
;;I believe that we need to adopt a categorization system to begin organizing these articles. Some categories exist, such as [[:Category:Diving equipment]], and can be utilized. The end goal should be to have a set of general categories (less than ten I would hope) that can be used to categorize ALL articles that fall under the scope of this project. Subcategories can then be utilized where needed. This will also help us identify where work needs to be done to further the WikiProject as a whole. Please post comments at the bottom of [[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_SCUBA#Categorization|this page]] and let me know what you think.
</tr></td><tr><td>
;Article Rating for [[WP:SCUBA]]
;;As you are hopefully aware, we place the {{tl|WPSCUBA}} template on the talk page of any article that falls within the scope of [[WP:SCUBA]]. It is a standard practice to use the Project Template to rate articles as stub, start, B, GA, A, etc. I invite you to research what is involved in setting up a rating and reporting system for [[WP:SCUBA]] as we currently do not rate our articles. This will help us identify the most important articles to our cause, and easily see which articles need the most work. Please feel free to post any questions on [[User_talk:Gr0ff|my talk page]].
</tr></td><tr><td>
;YMCA SCUBA
;;It has been my personal goal to start creating articles to cover all of the major [[Scuba_diving|scuba diver]] [[List_of_diver_training_organizations|certification agencies]], and categorize them as [[:Category:Diver training agency]]. On the [[List of diver training organizations]] YMCA SCUBA links to [[YMCA (diving organization)]], which then redirects to [[YMCA]]. The problem is that the [[YMCA|YMCA article]] doesn't discuss their [[recreational diving]] program anywhere. I would like to start a separate [[YMCA Scuba]] article using the information on their [http://www.ymcascuba.org/ Official Site], and fix the redirect at [[YMCA (diving organization)]] to point to the new article. I invite you to post your thoughts and opinions on these actions on [[User_talk:Gr0ff|my talk page]].

== Proposed blackout in protest of RA 10175 ==

Dear {{BASEPAGENAME}},

Greetings!

As a Filipino Wikipedian, I hope you are aware of the passage of Republic Act No. 10175, also known as the [[Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012]], which was signed into law by President Benigno Aquino III on September 12, 2012.  Currently, there is a discussion on the [[WP:TAMBAY|Tambayan]], the noticeboard for Philippines-related topics, about a proposed blackout of the English Wikipedia in the Philippines in order to protest the passage of RA 10175, similar to the blackout against SOPA and PIPA held earlier this year.  I feel that your input on the subject will definitely help in the discussion.

Please feel free to participate in the discussion at [[Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines#The Cybercrime Prevention Act]], and I hope your input will help the Filipino Wikipedia community determine which is the best course of action against this law.  Similarly, we hope to get as much input from as many Wikipedians as possible.

Thank you and ''maraming salamat po''!

Kind regards,

[[User:Sky Harbor|<b style="color:#0066ff;">Sky Harbor</b>]] <sup>([[User talk:Sky Harbor|<b style="color:#0066ff;">talk</b>]])</sup> 13:57, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

==[[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|Speedy deletion]] nomination of [[:Category:Fishing portal]]==
[[File:Ambox warning pn.svg|48px|left|alt=|link=]]

A tag has been placed on [[:Category:Fishing portal]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#C1|section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a [[:Category:Disambiguation categories|disambiguation category]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia soft redirected categories|category redirect]], a [[:Category:Wikipedia featured topics categories|featured topics category]], under discussion at [[Wikipedia:Categories for discussion|Categories for discussion]], or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Category:Fishing portal|visiting the page]] and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with [[Wikipedia:List of policies|Wikipedia's policies and guidelines]]. <!-- Template:Db-catempty-notice --> <!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 04:31, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of [[Banknotes of the United States dollar|United States banknotes]], yet only a fraction of these are represented on [[c:Main Page|Wikimedia Commons]] in the form of 2D scans.  Additionally, [[Colonial history of the United States|Colonial America]], the [[Confederate States of America|Confederate States]], the [[Republic of Texas]], multiple [[List of states and territories of the United States|states and territories]], communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, [[WP:WikiProject Numismatics|WikiProject Numismatics]] will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019|2019 US Banknote Contest]].  The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on [[m:Complete list of Wikimedia projects|all Wikimedia projects]].  Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#Awards|awards]].  Whether you want to claim the [[Template:GoldenWiki|Gold Wiki]] or you just want to have fun, all are invited to [[c:COM:US Banknote Contest/2019#How to participate|participate]].
