"information wants to be free"

I noticed you used this phrase in your recent posting at Templates for Deletion on the Limited Use template - I can't offer any advice with copyright issues, but I would like to know if you happen to know the origin of that phrase, I've been trying to track down its source recently. Thanks, stillnotelf has a talk page 04:20, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'd been looking for "information yearns to be free" and found hints that it might be attributable to John Markoff, but I couldn't find anything consistent enough to be confident. Thanks for your help, stillnotelf has a talk page 17:35, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Maori carving

Hi James. Is there some reason you uploaded Image:Waitangi Maori Carving n.jpg, which is a smaller version of Image:Waitangi Maori Carving.jpg? (It looks like you also increased the contrast a bit.) Anyway, we generally want images to be as large as possible, since the software can automatically produce thumbnails. Cheers, dbenbenn | talk 04:47, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Hawera Water Tower n.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded, Image:Hawera Water Tower n.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please look there to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.
The same goes for Image:Kerikeri Rainbow Falls n.jpg, which is a thumbnail of Image:Kerikeri Rainbow Falls.jpg. dbenbenn | talk 17:53, 14 February 2006 (UTC
