I will update the image with free images from wikipedia then you can review the image and see if it fits with wikipedia's standards [[User:Ukabia|Ukabia]] ([[User talk:Ukabia|talk]])

== Accusation of vandalism on [[1988]] ==

Oh, sorry, it was an accident. I completely forgot about the credibility which Wikipedia always strives to maintain. --[[User:Garzj019|Garzj019]] ([[User talk:Garzj019|talk]]) 02:14, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

== Regarding [[Wikipedia:Graphic Lab/Image workshop]] ==

Hi there, when a requester posts a non-free image for cleanup, vectorization, ect. they don't always read the How-to and end up posting the direct image onto the page. ie <nowiki>[[Image:Copyrighted.jpg]]</nowiki> instead of <nowiki>[[:Image:Copyrighted.jpg]]</nowiki> BJBot replaces <nowiki>[[Image:Copyrighted.jpg]]</nowiki> with the copyright notice image. This is very unhelpful as it sometimes makes it impossible for a graphist to know what image was posted without going back (sometimes through 100s of edits) into the history to find the image. It would be of much greater help if BJBot could replace <nowiki>[[Image:Copyrighted.jpg]]</nowiki> with <nowiki>[[:Image:Copyrighted.jpg]]</nowiki> so graphists still know which image is in need of repair. I know it's possible, just wondering if you'd be so kind to implement it? <font color="green" face="Comic Sans MS">[[User:Stepshep|§hep]]</font> • <font color="green" face="Comic Sans MS">[[User talk:Stepshep|¡Talk to me!]]</font> 02:08, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

== Blatant advertising on Allscripts ==

My intent is a scholarly and workmanlike entry with a neutral point of view and verification. The article's internal and external references support notability. I'd like to try again, paying close attention to requirements. I'll remove the unfulfilled table of content entries that appear to simply be advertising for products.

How do I gain access to do this? Your guidance is appreciated.

== Image:Quicktime 7 Leopard.png ==
I5 requires 7 days of disuse - this image had been disused for ~hours. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=QuickTime&diff=242050139&oldid=241741232

Furthermore, it was replaced with a more copyrighted image that needs to be deleted, and the image you deleted restored - see the old IfD [[Wikipedia:Images_and_media_for_deletion/2008_June_4|here]]. [[User:WilyD|Wily]]<font color="FF8800">[[User talk:WilyD|D]]</font> 03:51, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

==Image bot question==
I recently got three notices posted to my talk page at once by BJBot regarding orphaned fair use images that I had previously uploaded, but in all three cases it turns out that the images are orphaned precisely because new .png conversions were uploaded via the bot itself just before the notices were posted to my talk page. I have no objection to the file conversions, obviously, and given that they've been converted I have no objection to the old .jpg or .gif files being deleted, either — but is there a way that the bot could, in future, distinguish "your image is actually orphaned" from "your old image is going to be deleted because it's been converted to .png format" so that the user doesn't have to waste time ''investigating'' why the image is orphaned? Thanks. [[User:Bearcat|Bearcat]] ([[User talk:Bearcat|talk]]) 14:40, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

:I suggest your [[User:BJBot|bot]] is stopped until you rewrite it to prevent what is happening. [[User:English_peasant/Automated_message_dump_7| This]] is rather excessive and unnecessary. 121 messages to one person in one day, and not one of them was needed, as all the images listed (which had to be checked individually) had been replaced by png files. It may be a matter of looking into the process of replacing these files so that the originals are automatically deleted without a message, but in the meantime, your bot's messages are causing work which need not be done. I've personally had three today.

Wikipedia must be careful in moderating Gary Weiss page given some allegations (I guess I dont need to provide a reference here) that someone at wikimedia doesnt like Patrick Byrne!

And, if I get banned for just saying this (I hope not), my worst fears about wikipedia just came true and I would of course never donate anything to wikimedia. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Groovy12|Groovy12]] ([[User talk:Groovy12|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Groovy12|contribs]]) 18:22, 6 October 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Linking authors ==

You recently removed a link to the author in a source citation [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Duke_of_Burgundy&curid=357292&diff=243347280&oldid=226964942 (here)]. It's really no skin off my nose, but I would point out the article on [[Wikipedia:Citing Sources|Citing Sources]] mentions:

''If your source is not findable online, it should be findable in reputable libraries, archives, or collections. If a citation without an external link is challenged as unfindable, any of the following is sufficient to show the material to be reasonably findable (though not necessarily reliable): providing an ISBN or OCLC number; '''linking to an established Wikipedia article about the source (the work, its author, or its publisher)'''; or directly quoting the material on the talk page, briefly and in context.''

Although in this case the source is findable online, I can find (after a cursory search, admittedly) no specific interdiction concerned with linking authors' names in source citations with Wikipedia articles on that particular author. In fact, if anything, it increases verifiability, which is surely a point in its favour. If there is such an interdiction, could you please point it out to me; and if not, perhaps you would consider reinstating the link.

With many thanks. [[User:Nick Michael|Nick Michael]] ([[User talk:Nick Michael|talk]]) 14:05, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
:User pages are not articles and should not be linked to from articles. If the author became notable enough to have an article it would make sense to then link to that. [[User:Bjweeks|BJ]]<small><sup>[[User talk:Bjweeks|Talk]]</sup></small> 18:40, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

== Strappado merge ==

Hello, I see that there was a discussion [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Strappado bondage]], with a result to merge [[Strappado bondage]] into [[Strappado]]. The notice of the AfD does not look like it was posted to either [[Talk:Strappado bondage]] or to [[Talk:Strappado]]. This looks like a huge procedural issue, with the very editors having the most stake in both articles' disposition being excluded from the discussions.

Is there a process to appeal the result of an AfD? [[User:TJRC|TJRC]] ([[User talk:TJRC|talk]]) 03:49, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

::Thank you. I notice that part of the instructions for that say to "please attempt to discuss the matter with the admin who deleted the page (or otherwise made the decision)," I assume by pointing me to DR, you've got no problem with that. By the way, although I'm correct above noting there was no posting on either articles talk pages, there was indeed a notice on the [[Strappado bondage]] article itself. I should have checked that. But no notice on either [[Strappado]] or [[Talk:Strappado]], so my main point remains; but I did want to acknowledge my error. [[User:TJRC|TJRC]] ([[User talk:TJRC|talk]]) 04:24, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

::::Got it. To be clear, I'm not criticizing you, or for that matter, anyone. Everyone seems to have acted in good faith here, but the editors of [[Strappado]] were shut out, since the AfD morphed into a merge discussion.

== Deletion ==
* {{On AFD|Training and development}}
By way of experiment, I deliberately didn't touch the discussion when fixing the article. (I have another experiment currently at {{On AFD|Corporate personality}} where I have.) Compare the article as it actually stood at the time of closure against what was said about it in the rationales given, and note the lack of any discussion after the first 4 hours. Re-listing to engender further discussion would probably have been better. [[User:Uncle G|Uncle G]] ([[User talk:Uncle G|talk]]) 14:27, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alsek Air Service]] ==

I would like to ask you to reconsider your decision to close this as no consensus. While stricly counting "votes" would produce this result, as I pointed out in the debate, several of the keep voters were canvassed by [[User: Zyxw ]], as can be seen from his contributions, and most of the keep arhuments were not based in any way on established Wikipedia conventions or policies. I thought I would ask you to re-examine before going ahead with a request at DRV, because I think the delete voters, including myself, made more rational and policy based arguments and were not canvassed for their participation. Thanks. [[User:Beeblebrox|Beeblebrox]] ([[User talk:Beeblebrox|talk]]) 16:46, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

It has not been 5 days yet, and I just convinced bsimmons to change his vote.
