== Hi there! ==

I'd like to welcome you to Misplaced Pages as well. Don't worry about making mistakes, they will quickly be picked up by another user and will be fixed. Plus Misplaced Pages has a policy of ]. Hopefully, you've noticed that Misplaced Pages provides a lot of help for newbies so don't hesitate to ask someone (]). To get the tilde, press (shift + the key next to the 1 button), well that's where it is on my keyboard, above the tab. Have fun editing! ] 06:29, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
::I'd have to second that. Mistakes are not a big deal. Relax, make yourself at home.--] 21:40, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

== ] Article ==

I think the edit you did on that article was spot on. The paragraph certainly wasn't from a ] and deleting it was in my opinion the correct choice of action. And it's good that you used the talk page too, which is something I try to do when making an edit that I'm not too sure of. The paragraph in question was added , and as you can see, the user also changed "American Badass of Talk Radio" to "American dumbass of Talk Radio", and "King Dude" to "King Dork", so I am going to change those two back.

One improvement I can suggest is to write an ] when saving the changes so it's easier to see what's what when looking at the . But other than that, nice work. - ] 15:10, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

== Hello! ==

I just popped in because I saw your question about the tilde. You probably already know this by now, but it's on the key to the top left of your keyboard; just under "escape" and just over the "tab" key if you have a standard KB. ] 03:23, 27 November 2005 (UTC) ]

== Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot ==

] predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways, from comparing articles that need work to other articles you've edited, to choosing articles randomly (ensuring that all articles with cleanup tags get a chance to be cleaned up). It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Misplaced Pages better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on ]. Thanks from ], SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on ]. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- ] 04:08, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

== Reverted modifications ==

Hi Jefffire,

I make some modifications in the What the Bleep Do We Know!, but you have reverted all of it.
Do you disagree with my suggestions, you make it clear. But can we talk about?

Agostinho.

== Images ==

This would depend on where you got the image. For example, if you took it (or made them) yourself, then you can use it. Most images downloaded from the web cannot be used, since they are most likely copyrighted. If an image is copyrighted it can be used under the fair use clause. As a rule of thumb, the following classify as fair use (I got the list from ]):

* '''Cover art.''' Cover art from various items, for identification and critical commentary (not for identification without critical commentary).
* '''Team and corporate logos.''' For identification. See ].
* '''Stamps and currency.''' For identification.
* '''Other promotional material.''' Posters, programs, billboards, ads. For critical commentary.
* '''Film and television screen shots.''' For critical commentary and discussion of the cinema and television.
* '''Screen shots from software products.''' For critical commentary.
* '''Paintings and other works of visual art.''' For critical commentary, including images illustrative of a particular technique or school.
* '''Publicity photos.''' For identification and critical commentary. See ].

So, if you obtained the image from the web, it seems unlikely that it would classify as fair use, since the subject matter doesn't appear to fall into any of these categories.

Have you looked at the ] page. It provides plenty of info. Plus the ] page is also good. Hopefully this helps, if not, feel free to say so and I'll try to provide you with more info. - ] 22:13, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Misplaced Pages:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 05:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
