Type IV remailers?

Hi, Rearden9! I'm looking for some source to the claim that pseudonymous remailers are called "Type IV", and it looks like you're the one who added it. As near as I can tell, the term isn't used much in the literature or on the archived discussion areas. See Talk:Anonymous remailer for more discussion. Thanks! --Victor Lighthill 23:18, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Use "minor edits" only for truly minor edits, please

Remember to mark your edits as minor only when they genuinely are (see Wikipedia:Minor edit). "The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'." —C.Fred (talk) 16:27, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:KFMPage11.png

Thanks for uploading Image:KFMPage11.png. 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. 22:06, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

RNGS

Hello, I'm glad you're taking off running with the RGNS article. I haven't had the time to. Thanks, OmnipotentEntity.


Gullah

I hope I’m doing this correctly and apologize in advance if I screw this up. I just had a quick question about a change you made to the Hilton Head wiki. I’ve lived here for years, and have spoken with several of the native Islanders here, and none of them refer to themselves as Geechee. That terms applies more to native islanders further toward Florida. I recently changed it to reflect this, and you apparently changed it back (if I’m reading the history right; I’m new at this). Can I ask why?

I grew up on Hilton Head back in the 70s and I remember the Geechee term used. The Gullah article mentions that Geechee is used in Georgia. (as Hilton Head is as far south as you can get without being in GA :) I don't claim any expertise (I am not an anthropologist) in the matter, except for having lived there for a number of years. The Beaufort Co Library has a page on Gullah and mentions that the term Geechee is also used and is derived from a different place in Africa. [1] Feel welcome to provide more data and make the change. And yes, you are doing things right by writing on the talk page. Sign up for an account and start editing!
