Dear Cfortunato, I am Stephanie from Germany and a member of the Dorothy L Sayers Society. I was surprised how much room is given to Sayers' annotations on/in [[Inferno (Dante)]]. Much more than her remarks on Purgatory and Paradise in the respective articles. Is that "your doing"? Are or were you a member of the Society? I would like to get in touch. --[[User:Stephanie Do|Stephanie Do]] ([[User talk:Stephanie Do|talk]]) 16:17, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

Bill Everett Tribute

That is a very, very touching image. Everett's work in the '50s particularly was amazing. Even in his later years, his stuff had style. -- Tenebrae 03:18, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:BillEverettTribute.gif. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. 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 have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

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

Image:BillEverettTribute.gif

I've tagged the image correctly and added a fair use rational on the image's user page, it should be ok now. In the future you should tag images with something from Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags - I think it falls under Comicpanel, you also need to add a fair use rational, see the one I added for an example. Cheers! -- Tawker 18:09, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Quotation

Hello. It is Wikipedia house style to include exactly what is quoted inside quote marks--no more, no less. Punctuation goes inside if it is part of the quote, but otherwise not. Please see our style manual for more detail. Regards. Jonathunder 20:54, 19 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion

Hello! I noticed that you have been a contributor to articles on Anglicanism and the Anglican Communion. You may be interested in checking out a new WikiProject - WikiProject Anglicanism. Please consider signing up and participating in this collaborative effort to improve and expand Anglican-related articles! Cheers! Fishhead64 21:43, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


I believe we have achieved agreement

I am in total agreement with your last edit to the Jesus tomb article. As an atheist and a Buddhist, I wanted to make sure the secular side of the argument was properly represented (the page is heavily controlled by Christians). I feel you edit did it well enough. My last and final revert accidentally removed part of your modification of the Statistics section. If I touch the page Ward will go crazy on me, so i just felt I should inform you, so you can put it back in at your disgression. Apparently, edit wars can occasionally reach agreement Thegreyanomaly 02:19, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree. BTW, the wikilink to the stats sections needs a fix. It should be "The Lost Tomb of Jesus#Statistical evidence". I would fix it myself except I don't want to be perceived as violating 3RR. Ward3001 02:54, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Childrenschildrenschildren.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Childrenschildrenschildren.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 criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 21:49, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (Image:BillEverettTribute.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:BillEverettTribute.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. 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 Wikipedia (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 Wikipedia 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) 12:03, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Replaceable fair use Image:Patrickmcdonnel.jpg

Replaceable fair use
Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:Patrickmcdonnel.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rettetast (talk) 15:59, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeek

I've had to delete this article, since it was previously deleted and your recreation had all the same problems as the old article. Please don't repost it, but if you want to contest the deletion, you should raise the issue at deletion review. Before that, though, you should probably look over the old debate at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yeek. Mangojuicetalk 15:06, 12 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Barry Liebmann

All the sources you're turning up for Barry Liebmann are primary sources (from Mad themselves) or otherwise pretty much unreliable (toon zone). Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells• Otter chirps • HELP!) 18:36, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cigar

Hello Carlo. Yes, a cigar is a cigar. - I want to delete my discussion contributions where you posted your answer. Of course it will not disappear from the history, but before pushing this matter ahead, I want to get a feedback from some readers of thet ballad, wether I spoil their fun. With the deletion, also your short answer will disappear. If you disagree, you of couse can revert the removal of the text. Happy new year --DL5MDA (talk) 20:14, 31 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Carlo. Initially I underestimated your hint. I made good use of it. I could tell you more by email. --DL5MDA (talk) 17:31, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Freud said "sometimes". Here it is neither a cigar nor is it "smut". Richard Wallace drew wrong conclusions from incomplete observations. --DL5MDA (talk) 21:51, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring on Pibgorn

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Mark Shaw (talk) 18:17, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war? I'm reverting the work of a guy who recently vandalized the page, and who has not given his reasons on the talk page, although I have given mine.Carlo (talk) 18:20, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I understand that, but you are already in violation of WP:3RR (as is the other editor). Let it go for now. I have restored the page, and will report the other editor if s/he reverts again. Mark Shaw (talk) 18:25, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That was 2009. Carlo was right, and probably item #4 of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Edit_warring#Exemptions would apply today. --DL5MDA (talk) 22:31, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The answer to your question

You asked, might this be still better? The answer is yes, yours is better yet. Thanks. Unschool 23:50, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Boots - a maker of Bonnets and Hoods

I think that you are on the right track: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/goetzkluge/18691105 And there also is something for your interest in Anglicanism: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/goetzkluge/album/386777
--DL5MDA (talk) 17:11, 8 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Update 2017-05-07: Almost 10 years ago you gave me the idea that the Boots and the maker of Bonnets and Hoods are the same person. Good observation. See also http://snrk.de/page_boots-bonnetmaker#Carlo
--DL5MDA (talk) 22:00, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lewis Carroll may have referred to various historical and living persons (Thomas Cranmer, Henry George Liddell, St. Corbinian and the bear, Macarius and the hyena, Horatio Nelson etc.) in his tragicomical poem. The Bonnetmaker (=Boots?) is the only artist in the hunting party. Could this be a reference to his friend and illustrator Henry Holiday?
--DL5MDA (talk) 22:20, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Anglicanism: I still think, that Thomas Cranmer is among the persons who Lewis Carroll (and Henry Holiday) associated with the Baker:
https://www.reddit.com/r/UnusualArt/comments/4iiuud/henry_holidays_illustration_to_the_chapter_the/ and https://www.academia.edu/9918883/Thomas_Cranmers_42_Boxes
--DL5MDA (talk) 22:00, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I tried to discuss this with Anglicans. Seemingly those who responded don't feel comfortable with my assumption that Lewis Carroll's and Henry Holiday's The Hunting of the Snark also is about the history of Anglicanism. But I don't think that they made fun of it. He just may have used "nonsense" to address controversial issues (also related to the Oxford Movement). See also H01~H12 in https://www.reddit.com/r/TheHuntingOfTheSnark/wiki/index
--DL5MDA (talk) 22:00, 10 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I found an Anglican priest who did research on The Hunting of the Snark. In parallel to a little note in the Knight Letter (July 2018, № 100, p.55~56) on the Baker’s “hot” names and on Henry Holiday’s pictorial reference to Thomas Cranmer’s burning, a paper suggesting textual references from The Hunting of the Snark to Thomas Cranmer’s Forty-Two Articles has been published in The Carrollian (July 2018, № 31, p.25~41), journal of the Lewis Carroll Society in the UK. The author, Karen Gardiner, is an Anglican priest. So she and I (as well as Angus MacIntyre in 1994) all were lead by Carroll’s The Hunting of the Snark and the Baker’s forty-two boxes to Thomas Cranmer – coming from different starting points and different backgrounds. --DL5MDA (talk) 07:52, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Harry LaRosiliere Page

Hello, The City of Plano, Texas would like to take ownership of the Harry LaRosiliere wiki page. Do you have any objections? Cityofplanotx (talk) 16:34, 5 March 2015 (UTC) Cityofplanotx[reply]

I would say "no problem," but I don't think there's any such thing as "ownership" of a Wikipedia page. I made the article, but I don't own it. Change it if you like. Carlo (talk) 02:01, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

August 2018

Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Marilyn Michaels, you may be blocked from editing. Just stop. Your utterly phony accusations of vandalism are dishonest and disruptive. For too long, quite a few years, this article has been targeted for promotional editing by someone who appears to be the subject's publicist, and a small drawer of their socks. Many of the claims proved to be outright false -- a dishonest claim that the subject had won an Emmy, for example -- and many of the rest proved unverifiable. Most of the sources provided have not been independent of the subject, and are dubious and/or promotional. Various accounts have already been blocked or banned for reposting this atrocious text. There would be nothing wrong with writing a accurate, appropriately sourced article -- which your text in no way resembles -- and adding links to retailer pages for her latest self-published book is quite clearly not constructive.
