[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Belle_&_sebastian.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Belle_&_sebastian.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images on Wikipedia is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

[edit] Cambodian Midget Fighting League (hoax)

Please include notability info for the article you created, Cambodian Midget Fighting League (hoax). I am considering nominating it for deletion, but am not sure whether it is not notable. Not even sure which criterion applies. Thanks. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 15:26, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

In the scope of world history it's probably not that important, and was really just a pop culture thing making the rounds on the internet...I couldn't say how widely it circulated, and it could very well be that in five years no one remembers about it...we'll see if anyone has anything to add...in the end, let the wikipedians deciede, and I will accept their decision.

[edit] Knights of Columbus

Thanks for your recent edit to the Knights of Columbus article! I'm trying to take it to featured article status, so any help you can offer would be great. Its currently undergoing a peer review. Thanks again! Briancua 15:21, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

All I did was correct the spelling of the word "Connecticut"...unrelatedly, I have attended a few KoC meetings (a few years ago), and was less than impressed... TJ0513 12:36, 10 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi TJ

I'm pretty new at this. Thanks for your suggestions. I'll work on it. Noroton 02:48, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice edits

Nice edits to Alexander Rummler. It's always great to see someone else expanding an article that's been unedited for months. Cheers! --Falcorian ^(talk) 18:00, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Aw, shucks, just tryin' to add a bit of color to a little corner of the Internet. Thanks! I hope to continue to improve it! TJ0513 01:57, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] History of Norwalk, Connecticut

Hi; I've endorsed this revision of this page. Note that I don't have a particularly strong feeling one way or another; I simply made a call and there it is. I don't assert any particular authority to freeze the page at any moment. Indeed, I'm sure this article can be further improved. I just have to question whether you two can do so, right at the moment. Please lend me your ears for a bit while I comment.

Noroton (talk • contribs) and TJ0513 (talk • contribs), you seem to be in the middle of an edit war. Page history does not indicate any blatant 3RR violation and, if you think you're not edit warring, this is probably why. Let me just suggest that edit wars come in all shapes and sizes; 3RR only forbids one particular kind. Other edit wars are also frowned upon and occasionally grounds for sanctions. The general principle is discuss, don't revert. This theme runs through many of our policies.

My suggestion is that you both take a break from this particular page. I don't particularly care if my edit stands or if the very next editor who comes along reverts it -- just so long as it's not one of you guys. Let a few other guys get in their licks; see which way the wind blows. You may be surprised at what the rest of the community has to say. Give it a month. Remember, all versions are safely stored in page history; there is no emergency, nothing will be lost. You've both commented on talk extensively so other editors will be aware of the controversy. No problem!

There are many outstanding tasks around here; no shortage of work to be done. Build up some good karma and I'm wiling to bet that in a month from now, you'll both find your concerns fully addressed. If there's any way I can possibly help, just ask.

I'd like to repeat that I'm totally uninvolved in this issue; I've never even been to Connecticut, despite having lived many years in the Rust Belt. I don't even particularly worry that the project will fall down if you fight over this article. But I hope I'm able to help preserve two valuable contributors to the project; this I care about a great deal. Thank you. John Reid 08:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Yah, but I don't think minds are going to be changed in a month's time. I sort of tried my best to get other voices in there, by listing for a Wikipedia:Third opinion, but that didn't seem to work. I'd love to see more people opine, though unfortunately I'm not sure they'll be finding their way to this article. TJ0513 01:57, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] AMA Request

Hello, I've looked over the relevant talk pages, and beyond taking a well-advised break from the issue, if/when you decide to continue this I recommend proposing informal mediation through WP:MEDCAB. Though some of your personal comments to Noroton, such as You're crazy, may be seen as out of line of WP:NPA, I don't think the situation necessarily calls for someone to act for you in an advocacy capacity. However, I would be willing to help mediate a resolution if you and Noroton decide to go that route. The discussion and attempt at compromise you've tried up to the personal attacks started was already pretty good though, and starting a mediation process might just emulate what you've already gone through. Anyway, please let me know at your leisure what issues you still have with the article as it stands and I will try to advise what WP:DR steps may or may not be appropriate at this point or some point in the future.--Amerique 02:39, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I said "crazy" after I was called "creepy", or rather my actions were regarding the "something" that I was doing. That is crazy. If there's nothing that can be done then there's nothing that can be done; I went through the means, and I guess a stubborn person can block all moves. TJ0513 17:57, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I understand that. I hope your future collaborations will be more pleasant. Best Regards,--Amerique 21:22, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I responded to your last message on your AMA case page Wikipedia:AMA_Requests_for_Assistance/Requests/October_2006/TJ0513.--Amerique 21:35, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry so late in replying, the best way to get ahold of me is to leave a message on my talk page and I will know right away. From what I understand as of a week or so ago, what you would like to do is propose, through an RFC, the elimination of the 9-11 victims reference from these articles, as it is of at best tangential interest to the subject matter, correct? Thank you for your patience.--Amerique ^dialectics 06:22, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My to-do list

Hey, thanks for dropping me a line. I haven't been involved as of late as much as I'd hoped. My pages are out of date, and so please don't feel bad for creating any article (I'd much rather someone else start it, and me add to it, than have nowhere to start.) I appreciate the tip, however, and look foreward to working with you on it. Thanks, Mysekurity 20:24, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
