Please explain how you derive numerical nomenclature for historic versions of articles to which one can revert. Also, do you suggest that I used popups? If so, I don't know how to! Please explain your reversion and reasoning on the site referenced. Many thanks--confused, aka--[[User:Grmanners|GRM]] 22:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

== Long time no see; welcome back ==

Hi Phidauex, Hadn't seen you around for a while, so it's nice to see you back on wikipedia... I'm completely swamped the past week or two, so my contributions are pretty much limited to vandalism, and a few things on my most important pages.  Hopefully after the New Year things will quiet down for me a bit, and I can have a go at adding more about Rama's other topics, and perhaps making the push to get synesthesia up to FA status.

== Wheatgrass External Link ==

Hi Phidauex,

I was looking at "wheatgrass" in Wikipedia and noticed that you had removed a link to Wheatgrass Juice Health Experiences.  It is critical to remove pure commercial links but I think the health experiences link fits the Wikipedia model of complete information.

Wheatgrass Juice Health Experiences is directly linked to a forum (not a sales page) at http://www.dynamicgreens.com/wheatgrassforum/forumdisplay.php?f=10  This forum contains the only source of wheatgrass health experiences on the Internet and is the primary source for the health stories shared in the wheatgrass Bible called "Wheatgrass - Nature's Finest Medicine" by Steve Meyerowitz.

I put the link back up before writing this note to you as I didn't understand the process.  It would be terrific if you could consider these thoughts when you review the topic next as the intention is only to add value to Wikipedia.

Sincerely,

Derek Stem

== Inkscape diagrams ==

Hey, a while back you helped me convert some Inkscape SVGs into a Wikipedia-compatible format, leaving instructions on my talk page to do so. I recently revisited one of my earlier diagrams and improved it, but have been unable to follow your instructions adequately to convert it into the proper format. The image in question is [[:Image:ALFConcept.svg]] on Wikipedia as you uploaded it; the newest version is on the Commons at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:ALFConcept.svg. I tried very hard to follow your directions, but could only come up with what you see in the Common image's history. Are you actually using Inkscape to do the conversions? What version of the program? I swear that I followed to the letter, "select all text and choose Path>Object to Path to convert text to paths, then select all the lines that use line styles other than basic stroke thickness, and choose Path>Stroke to Path. Then save as a Plain SVG, and upload." Where could I have screwed up? Thanks in advance. -- [[User:Rmrfstar|Rmrfstar]] 03:40, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== glyphosate page ==

hi there! i have been editing the glyphosate page and have added material both supportive of monsantos product and linked to their page and i have added material asking questions of it as from greenpeace and scientific sources.. An editor "Ttguy" has been repeatedly removing material from this page and just from one side (anything that might look bad for monsanto)...first he uses the excuse that things arnt referenced yet they always are, his next step is to try and remove the references themselves using various excuses...he only edits in a narrow spectrum just removing things that arent pro-monsanto products and pro GM food...i myself am pro-GE tech yet this type of "erasure" of information detailing problems and unflattering material to the manufacturers i find bad faith lobbiest editing...he is now trying to summon the power to block me from editing alltogether...i may reinstate some material i once added that was pro-monsanto ( i began removing my own pro-monsanto sentences as the page was becoming unbalanced as Ttguy just kept removing anything not pro-monsanto)..however i feel someone else needs to head to the page..i am tired of single handedly & continually battling his blankings and removals of factual cited material...[[User:Benjiwolf|Benjiwolf]] 17:01, 12 February 2007 (UTC)


==Helping out with the Unassessed Wikipedia Biographies==

Seeing that you are an active member of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Biography | WikiBiography Project]], I was wondering if you would help lend a hand in helping us clear out the amount of [[http://en.wikipedia.com/wiki/Category:Unassessed_biography_articles unassessed articles]] tagged with <nowiki>{{WPBiography}}</nowiki>.

==[[Wikipedia:Good article candidates|GAC]] backlog elimination drive==
This form message is being sent to you either due to your membership with [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles|WikiProject Good Articles]] and/or your inclusion on the [[Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers]]. A new drive has been started requesting that all members review at least one article (or more, if you wish!) within the next two weeks at [[Wikipedia:Good article candidates|GAC]] to help in removing the large backlog. This message is being sent to all members, and even members who have been recently reviewing articles. There are almost 130 members in this project and about 180 articles that currently need to be reviewed. If each member helps to review just one or two articles, the majority of the backlog will be cleared. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{tl|GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the [[WP:WIAGA|GA criteria]] may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy.

== Fair Use: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Shulgin.jpg ==

Hello,

I believe this fits fair use as it is reduced resolution, as not been complained about since you tagged it and more importantly fits securely under:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Non-free_content

Acceptable images

8. Images with iconic status or historical importance: As subjects of commentary.

These scientists are trully historical icons that should be remembered visually as their work as been so misconstrued by the DEA etc. Here you can see a normal loving couple who could have helped so many people without [[Draconian]] laws that still demonize innocent people.

The normalcy of this photo lends a great deal to the article and the article would suffer great prejudice without this picture.

But I'm new to this aspect but am highly educated and involved in computers and free software since the 1970s.

== I would like to contribute without being called a vandal. ==

Hello,
I just started here at wiki, my main access to the internet is at the Millennium Library in Winnipeg, MB, CA.
I was mainly motivated by my interested in extra solar planets and what I think I can contribute.
I have been very frustrated with the mess that has been left at the article for planet "Gliese 581 c."
Specifically the all the assumsions and speculations. There is a fair bit of sound reasoning that is being ignored there for the sake of pandering to publicity. This planet is by far NOT Earth-like, it is much more Venus-like than anything else. 
I despise the the term "Super-Earth" and think it may be popular with the media, but it has no genuine scientific validity in the way it is being used. It leaves out "Super-Venus," "Super-Mars," "Super-Mercury," etc. and ignores the simple fact that in our solar system these are all called "Terrestrials," as opposed to "Gas Giant." 
But who is going to listen to this reasoning when it is easier to pander to the media.
I am mentioning this to you becuase I don't presume to just start making changes.
I know that someone who just takes it upon themselves to start making changes can get labled a vandal.
I have started [relatively] simple, and begun to add this chart where I think (HZ planets) it would be of use:

==Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Shulgin.jpg==
Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Shulgin.jpg]]'''. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at [[Wikipedia:Non-free content]] carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at [[Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline]] is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images/media|criteria for speedy deletion]].

After nearly two years, the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps/Running total|running total]]''' has just passed the 50% mark. In order to expediate the reviewing, several changes have been made to the process. A '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps worklist|new worklist]]''' has been created, detailing which articles are left to review. All exempt and previously reviewed articles have already been removed from the list. Instead of reviewing by topic, you can consider picking and choosing whichever articles interest you.

We are always looking for new members to assist with the remaining articles, so if you are interested or know of anybody that can assist, please visit the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps|GA sweeps page]]. In addition, for every member that reviews 100 articles or has a significant impact on the process, s/he will get an award when they reach that threshold. If only 14 editors achieve this feat starting now, we would be done with Sweeps! Of course, having more people reviewing less articles would be better for all involved, so please consider asking others to help out. Feel free to stop by and only review a few articles, something's better than nothing! Take a look at the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/Project quality task force/Sweeps worklist|list]], and see what articles interest you. Let's work to complete Sweeps so that efforts can be fully focused on the backlog at GAN. If you have any questions about the process, reviewing, or need help with a particular article, please contact me or [[User:OhanaUnited|OhanaUnited]] and we'll be happy to help. --Happy editing!

== Commons image source ==

Hi  - Please clarify the image source for [[:commons:File:Giraffelamplighterbike.jpg]].  Thanks! -[[User:SCEhardt|<span style="color:blue;">SCEhard</span>]][[User talk:SCEhardt|<b style="color:#3D9140;">T</b>]] 19:03, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

==Orphaned non-free image (File:Shulgin.jpg)==
<span style="font-size:32px; line-height:1em">'''[[Image:Ambox warning blue.svg|35px|left|&#x26A0;]]'''</span> Thanks for uploading '''[[:File:Shulgin.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[Wikipedia:Orphan|orphaned]], meaning that it 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. [[WP:BOLD|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 for use on Wikipedia (see [[Wikipedia:Non-free content#Policy|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 "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:MyContributions|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. Thank you. <!-- Template:Di-orphaned fair use-notice --> [[User:Meco|meco]] ([[User talk:Meco|talk]]) 09:38, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

:I removed the image from the two Shulgin articles where it was used since it is a replaceable non-free image and thus inapplicable for use on an article about a living person. __[[User:Meco|meco]] ([[User talk:Meco|talk]]) 09:39, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
