Doesn't edit here anymore. Talk messages will not be answered, so don't bother.

Thank You[edit]

I took some monthes off from the Iowa class article, then came back to rewrite it. Seeing your side on our aurgument/debate made me reliase that the sections for comaprison had to go, so they are no longer there. I also tried harder to find and cite everything included in the article so as to aviod another edit war like the one we got involved in.

I will not pry into what exactly made you leave, but if I was the cause then I apologize, as that was not my intention. Wherever life takes you, and whatever happens from this day on, I wish you luck, and thank you for your contributions here. TomStar81 (Talk) 09:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Simeus05.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Simeus05.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

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

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

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yonatan ^talk 06:33, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Haiti_gerard_jean_juste_arrete.jpg[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Haiti_gerard_jean_juste_arrete.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yonatan ^talk 06:38, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free use disputed for Image:KobeGameWinner.jpg[edit]

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:KobeGameWinner.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read carefully the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content and then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure 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 04:21, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Otton solis.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading Image:Otton solis.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 16:03, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good riddance. You were such a self-serving POS. --75.168.44.233 (talk) 17:58, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
