Hello and welcome. Please note the highlighting convention: the title word or title phrase is highlighted at its first appearance in an article, like this. I took care of this in Maurice Noble. Michael Hardy 16:41, 22 Dec 2003 (UTC)

The Stand

[edit]

Hi, regarding your "Project Blue" re-add, I took it out because I believe that was not part of the original version of the story; I tried to leave in only the plot aspects which were part of the original, Uncut, and TV versions. Let me know if you disagree, if not I will change this later. Thanks Jgm 11:50, 26 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sugar Maple cultivars

[edit]

Hi Angilbas - thanks for adding the Sugar Maple cultivars, just a quick grammar check - they don't have commas and fullstops as part of the cultivar name ;-) MPF 00:08, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Samurai Jack episode titles

[edit]

Hi, thanks for contributing to the References in Samurai Jack. I would just like to ask anyone contributing to this page to give their opinion on whether titles or Roman numerals should be used to refer to episodes. The discussion is at Talk:References in Samurai Jack. Thanks. Jack 04:12, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Liriodendron

[edit]

Hi Angilbas - do you know if anyone has ever done a botanical study of the east Florida 'ecotype'? - it would appear to me sufficiently distinct to be formally named as a separate subspecies; maybe even (given that its earlier flowering presumably makes it reproductively isolated?) a distinct species.

Also is there any possibility you might be able to persuade the photographer to release the photos under GFDL? - as it stands, the restriction "This permission does not extend to third parties" makes it illegal for wiki mirrors to display them, but the automated nature of wiki mirror formation prevents them from avoiding this.

Any chance of getting a GFDL photo of L. chinense, too? Unfortunately, there's none anywhere in my area, or I'd get one. - MPF 12:28, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great to see success on getting them gfdl'd! - MPF 19:37, 29 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Hi Angilbas - just to let you know, I removed the ext link you'd added as they're wrong, suffering from a classic Sequoia / Sequoiadendron confusion ;-) Britain's champ Sequoia is 48m, at Bodnant in Wales - MPF 20:48, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Liriodendron

[edit]

Hi Angilbas - I've been thinking the page is getting a bit on the long side, and that it should (as in other similar instances) be split up into three pages, Liriodendron, Liriodendron chinense, and Liriodendron tulipifera, each covering what is relevant to the genus, and to the two species individually. Of these, the last already exists as a redirect back to Liriodendron, but that's easily changed. As you're heavily involved in the page, I thought I'd ask to see what you think first - MPF 13:00, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Boof Bonser

[edit]

Hi Angilbas- I'm a counselor at a summercamp in NY and I actually posted a paragraph or so about the "obsession" that my campers, and even a couple of counselors, had with the Minnesota Twins pitcher, Boof Bonser. I'm not 100% sure, but I think you were the person who edited my posting out of the article. I would really like it to be posted, because I really do find it amusing, but as this is not something that is really newsworthy, I don't have any textual or online evidence that could prove it to be true except for the fact that I see it and know it is true. So, if you could please allow me to repost it, I think it would be great for my campers to see that and it would certainly be an interesting piece of trivia for true Twin fans! I believe if you look through the editing records, the paragraph is still on the website. Thanks for any help, and also, I do understand if you cannot post it again, so do not feel obligated if you feel you're pushing the rules. 23:30, 29 Aug 2006 (UTC)

Liriodendron stamp

[edit]

Hi, while I appreciate your effort in turning up the Liriodendron chinense stamp, we can't actually use it, permission or no. The problem is that "permission" is too vague - does the permission still apply when the image is used in a version that is sold, such as the German WPers have done? What about commercial sites that reuse all or part of WP content? In any case, stamps are usually not accurate representation, the stamp designers frequently tinkering so as to make the designs more attractive. You might pinging UK Wikipedians to go down to Kew and take some pics firsthand - User:Arpingstone has been known to do this for example. Stan 21:40, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:My home, September 2007.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:My home, September 2007.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 07:06, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Duplicate images uploaded

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Plumsmaplesandmore.JPG. A machine-controlled robot account noticed that you also uploaded the same image under the name Image:DSCF1302.JPG. The copy called Image:DSCF1302.JPG has been marked for speedy deletion since it is redundant. If this sounds okay to you, there is no need for you to take any action.

This is an automated message- you have not upset or annoyed anyone, and you do not need to respond. In the future, you may save yourself some confusion if you supply a meaningful file name and refer to 'my contributions' to remind yourself exactly which name you chose (file names are case sensitive, including the extension) so that you won't lose track of your uploads. For tips on good file naming, see Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions about this notice, or feel that the deletion is inappropriate, please contact User:Staecker, who operates the robot account. Staeckerbot 07:44, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:Starr 070205 4085 carya pecan.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Starr 070205 4085 carya pecan.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 08:07, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Senneville tuliptree.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 05:58, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Siska etc.

[edit]

Hi; just saw your addition to the Siska, British Columbia page and, noting your interest in environment/gardening, figure you must have sme resources that discuss other points such as the range of the big-leaf maple. My main reaction is as to whether Siska really is the divide-point between coastal biome and the Interior one. To me, that's already evident at Hell's Gate or Boston Bar/North Bend; aren't there pine species there that are not found farther down the Canyon but which are part of the Interior biome? Siska seems well within the boundary, fuzzy though it is. Is the bigleaf maple a specific demaractor? And if so, I'm wondering what its range in the Pemberton-D'Arcy-Seton area is...I'm from Seton, there's maple there, just cant' recall what kind.....and re that area, have you ever heard of Xacwa7 (Hakwa') - "Indian rhubarb" I think its English name is, maybe Indian celery; it's an edible green, popular with the St'at'imc people of the Lakes, but I'm not sure of its species designation......Also, given your interest in both enbvironment and gardening, what might you have to say about BC's "deserts"? Nk'mip Desert I've got a rename proposal going for as that name seems a decided neologism related to branding efforts of the Nk'mip Winery and Resort and promotion of their "Desert Cultural Centre"; thing is another Desert Cultural Centre in Osoyoos doesn't use that name (see their site....so if that pocket desert has a name, might you know what it is? South Okanagan Desert? Thing is, it's not really desert and despite claims it's an extension of the Sonoran Desert (not made on the page, but in Nk'mip's literature) I'm unaware of any adjoining part of Washington that's called desert.....if desert's only defined by rainfall, there are other places in BC that are far drier, and hotter, than Osoyoos (Lytton for starters) but despite clear "pocket deserts" here and there none have names.....oh, except the Thompson-Nicola Regional District's new designation of the "Copper Desert Country" surrounding western Kamloops Lake. So overall, what can you tell me by way of proper definitions of the climate/biome of areas like the lower Thompson (Kamloops to Lytton) and the Fraser Canyon from Lytton to Riske Creek (Chilcotin Jctn), and about the various "alpine deserts" on hte lee of the Coast Mountains, particularly in the Stikine? Just idle curiosity from a multi-track mind, but also wanting to correct various myths, such as Osoyoos' loud claim that it is "Canada's only desert", when it's neither "only" nor really a desert.....Your thoughts?Skookum1 (talk) 15:07, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Red Maple Crimson Shadow.JPG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|CC-by-sa-3.0|GFDL}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Proposed deletion of Tyee (soil)

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Tyee (soil), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Poor sourcing, better to be merged with a classification article

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent 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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, 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.

File permission problem with File:ECF_Liriodendron_2.jpg

The article Maple decline has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This is an article about a tree disease that isn't real. Several people have posted on the talk page over the years about how the article is bunk. It has no sources (just one broken external link). It has a bunch of "scare quotes" implying terms are unreliable or suspect but not giving any reason why. If I were to eliminate everything that's problematic in this article, it would be empty. So I propose deletion.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Janus303 (talk) 15:36, 1 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Due to Wikipedia's policy against publishing original research, I'm not convinced that the Google Street View links you recently added to the Grass Valley, California article are useful as citations.

The article John Collins (cartoonist) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. 333-blue 07:51, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tommy Lane (actor) moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Tommy Lane (actor), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Comox Sandhills, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Comox (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

I removed your addition to the article. There is a consensus not to mention it in the article. The fact is, repeated entries of that WP:TRIVIA is the reason[1] the article is page protected....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 10:42, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Measurement of soil pH

Hello, I was interested to see your edit of Soil pH to include vegetable dyes as pH indicators. Do you have a reference to add that shows the use of this method for soil?

Hello! I was adding references to the page Solar mass and saw you made an edit on this page a long time ago, back in 2012. You wrote: The Sun also gains mass when foreign bodies such as asteroids and comets crash into it. Because the Sun already holds 99.86% of the Solar System's total mass, foreign body impacts are not expected to offset its loss of mass by the two aforementioned processes.

It seems a meaningful statement, but I absolutely cannot find a reference for it. Can you maybe help me? -- Broc (talk) 23:16, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
