[edit] DYK

Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Palinode, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] HQITWS is back!

With my virus gone, HQITWS is back! Spawn Man 23:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] COTW Project

You voted for Fourteen Points, this week's Collaboration of the week. Please come and help it become a featured-standard article. - Davodd 23:21, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:FAITH

After your comments in the featured pictures requested with regards to the display standards comparison diagram and specifically my comments on use of the SVG format, I would like to bring to your attention the assume good faith section of official policy. Please take the time to read and understand it. Comments should be made with regards to articles and work, not personally aimed at editors.--WikipedianProlific^(Talk) 18:46, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry but I don't have the time to argue it with you. I suggest you re-read it then and make sure you fully understand what it means because if someone is referring to something that you have said then it shouldn't be aimed back at them. Bluntly, if you haven't got anything nice to say then don't say anything. --WikipedianProlific^(Talk) 18:54, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your mum

I'm adding this so you'll be excited when you see you have a new message, only to be annoyed when it's just some shit from me. Did it work? Soo 21:58, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear JonONeill,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that not enough mainspace edits. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof.

[edit] Manchester City F.C.

From Talk:Manchester City F.C.:

This article, being about a British football club, is written in British English (following the recommendation by the Manual of Style on the relevant variety of English to use in an article). As a result, it uses the discretionary plural, namely that collective nouns such as club and team can be used in either the singular or the plural. Generally, in British English media, sporting teams are referred to in the plural. Consequently, this article refers to the club in the plural throughout, for consistency's sake.

This is notably different from American English, where sporting teams are always referred to in the singular. However, in British English it is perfectly grammatically correct to use the plural and this should be borne in mind before jumping to conclusions about inappropriate subject/verb agreement.

But then I just saw you're from Essex... perhaps I ought not to jump to conclusions about nationality ;-) Oldelpaso 17:31, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:WayneMardle.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:WayneMardle.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:

1. Go to the image 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 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 fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. – Quadell ^{(talk) (random)} 23:25, 16 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Countdown

Countdown (game show) has been nominated for a featured article review. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to featured quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, articles are moved onto the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Remove" the article from featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Reviewers' concerns are here.

[edit] Wikipedia Boycott Campaign

I thought you might be interested in this template since you expressed support for boycotting Wikipedia on my sub-userpage. --LatinoMuslim 15:49, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Replaceable fair use Image:MireiKurado.png

Thanks for uploading Image:MireiKurado.png. 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) 19:25, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
