adolf eichmann's photo(cont)

hello again delldot.i totally agree with you that "it would be the original picture's copyright, not that of the website it happens to be on, that matters." besides,as i said at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Eichmann.jpg&action=history :regardless of website's policies no one can claim "copyright" to original government property. 'll revert the photo's info to its original detail.is this ok with you??Grandia01 (talk) 15:12, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

thanks for your follow-up.yes i highly doubt that there's anything wrong with that image either.it's very clear that it's government property.nah,some people just have to make things complicated...Grandia01 (talk) 00:53, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Editor Review - Thanks

Thanks for the very pleasant Editor Review, it would appear from what you've said that you think I'm doing an OK job, I apprecaite you taking the time. I have absolutely no intention of making an RfA, seems like it would require much more time than I can give at present. Thanks again for the responses. --The.Q^(t)(c) 16:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I think you're doing great. I didn't assume you wanted to do RfA, but I usually say something about it in reviews because a lot of people are interested in that. Peace, delldot talk 21:19, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Question

How do you know when to archive user talk pages? Happy editing,--Padawan Animator (talk) 23:56, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

My reply delldot on a public computer talk 04:13, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

plant neurons

Hi, this was the first time for me to modify Wikipedia. :) In the future I'll keep such comments to the discussion page. I am a biology master's student and I have never heard about plants having neurons either. I'm sure it was an accidental fluke for the author of the sentence and it wasn't supposed to be in the plant paragraph. After stumbling upon it in the article, I just had to make a snarky/sarcastic comment about it. Just so other people wouldn't miss out on the fun. :) 195.50.223.242 (talk) 14:08, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for catching that! delldot on a public computer talk 02:17, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Possibility of deletion?

Since that Westchester article is rated low on the importance scale and it's constantly the victim of heavy vandalism, do you think it should be deleted? Just a thought. Happy editing,--Padawan Animator (talk) 18:25, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Nevermind. :-D Happy editing,--Padawan Animator (talk) 17:59, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Socks & Protection

If you're up, we're having yet another IP sock attack at Spyware Doctor, this one from Special:Contributions/59.101.202.232 makin the same edit and spewing profanity in his edit summaries. May I request temporary semi-protection for this page, that would seem to end this struggle tonight and let things cool down. Thanks! Snowfire51 (talk) 11:36, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Jinx! delldot talk 12:05, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Wow, that was fast. Thanks! While I've got your ear, we're got another admitted sock/vandal strafing our user pages at Special:Contributions/Alexan1, every edit gibberish and vandalism. I appreciate the previous help, thanks again! Snowfire51 (talk) 11:39, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

andy.rofl

Dear delldot, you have sent me a message accusing me of vandalising wikipedia by changing andy.rofl 's page. This is not true. Andy is my flatmate and I did it on his behalf. xo Rowan —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.178.186.121 (talk) 12:21, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Writers strike

I split the page, That is not vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastertweak (talk • contribs) 15:58, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

You're right. I'm sorry! :-( delldot talk 16:05, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, I was splitting it because it was too big, Im not used to the Wiki tags and im used to my own system of just saving back and forth but im sorry for that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastertweak (talk • contribs) 16:02, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Concussion

Sorry for my delayed response. I think every peer review of medical articles needs to be announced on WP:MED, because many members don't seem to be monitoring the peer review page. I certainly don't, although I certainly should :-)

For your hard work on neurotraumatology content. JFW / t@lk 18:34, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Before I head over to the PR page, my warmest compliments on your neurotraumatology work. When updating stroke I was struck by the large number of related articles from your hand (e.g. the intra- and extra-axial haemorrhage articles) and the care invested in them. Keep up the great work.

request for help-robert ley's photo

hello again ms delldot.hope you're doing well.delldot at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Robert_ley.jpg it says that the image is considered for speedy deletion because a fair use rationale is not provided,why should anyone provide a fair use rationale to an image/work which doesn't have a copyright??can you please help clear this confusion??thank you :) Grandia01 (talk) 04:34, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

My reply delldot talk 05:44, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

your answer: Hey Granadia. Sadly, the copyright policy is very strict, so absence of copyright info does not mean that it's not copyrighted, and the burden of proof is on the person who wants to keep the image.

the website's terms state that only non-copyrighted images are allowed to exist on that forum website.so im pretty sure it doesn't have a copyright.is there anyway to bypass this free use rationale request??Grandia01 (talk) 06:02, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

on second thought,do you think that it would better to use a license template that shows that the image's copyright has expired??Grandia01 (talk) 06:58, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

My reply delldot talk 14:57, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

thanks for your continued support delldot.i guess i'll change the license once and for allGrandia01 (talk) 04:51, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

changed license and indicated that it's common property thus it has no copyright attached to it.please reviewGrandia01 (talk) 04:57, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

My reply delldot talk 07:03, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

your answer: As I said, you have to actually be able to demonstrate for sure that it's not copyright

please see the websites term's at http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=53962 section F-4 "copyrights" that shows that images posted there can't/aren't copyrighted.robert ley's photo has been there for approx over a year without any problems.please reply if you have further concerns.hope this is proof enoughGrandia01 (talk) 06:55, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

My reply delldot talk 07:03, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

i don't mind taking the fair use route,but am i allowed to take the fair use option when the image isn't copyrighted??or is this just your reccommendation so that i can be on the safe side??can you please clarify for me??Grandia01 (talk) 07:06, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination withdrawal

Hi.

I'm not sure how to withdraw my nomination from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Susana A. Herrera Quezada.

Is it enough to just replace

{{REMOVE THIS TEMPLATE WHEN CLOSING THIS AfD|O}}

with

<div class="boilerplate metadata afd vfd xfd-closed" style="background-color: #F3F9FF; margin: 2em 0 0 0; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; border: 1px solid #AAAAAA;">

or is there another step?
As always, thanks for helping.
