	Pardon if my tone on the revert of 'Replicators' was a bit harsh. Misplaced Pages has a standard for dealing with disambiguation which I was following - it's detailed at ]. I gave the 'Star Trek' article for 'Replicators' the primary position. In these cases, the secondary article generally is allowed a brief line at the top of the article to define an alternative link. It is also customary to describe very briefly the primary article as part of this line, even if it is obvious from the first paragraph.

	If the secondary article is placed at the bottom, it will often not be seen.

			::::Hi Redux. As requested on meta, your check-user flag is now active.<br>
	There is an alternative resolution: we can create a disambiguation page that treats both articles as equal, offering a 'Star Trek' branch and a 'Stargate-SG1' branch. I see no need for this if the standard disambiguation format is followed.

			:Thank you Acalamari!!! It is nice to be back. I had been meaning to for quite a while. Still lots of catching up to do, but I'll get there.

	I think that posting complete sets of lyrics to songs written within the last few decades, as you've done with ], ], ], etc. is ''almost certainly'' a copyright violation. Why you think these can be released under the GFDL? You certainly didn't write it yourself, and I don't believe they could have been copied from a public domain resource. Have you read the notice about this under every edit box? Have you discussed this with knowledgeable people on Misplaced Pages? ] 01:59, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

			==Disambiguation link notification for March 24==
	== Tables ==
	Hello, thanks for the note on my talk. I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with tables to know what's happening there. You might want to take a look at ] or ask at ] if that doesn't answer your question. Sorry I wasn't able to help further. ]  – ] ] 15:05, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

			Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited ], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ]. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the ]{{*}} Join us at the ].</small>
	== Empty Friends plots ==
	I think I put stub notes on those pages, are these not sufficient? The incomplete pages are definately works in progress. Would it be safer just to disable the links until I am ready to totally complete the article?

			It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these ]. Thanks, ] (]) 09:06, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
	:Very odd, I swear I did the tilde thing before. Anyway, I removed the links and I'm going to fill in those plots as fast as I can (I'm a bit of a perfectionist so halfdone pages bug me more than empty pages. I know, weird). So if those orphan pages get found somehow (by bloodhounds) and get deleted, no big deal for me to create more complete ones.
	:On another side note, thank you for your help so far. I've been very impressed by the level of consideration and professionalism that I've seen from this project so far. ] 00:57, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)

			::Fixed. Thanks to the bot owner. ] (]) 11:47, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
	== ] ==
	It really needs to be "(Buffy episode)". The reason is because of episodes named ''Angel'' and ''The Initiative'', which would be hopelessly ambiguous if qualified with "(Buffy the Vampire Slayer)". To avoid this, the episode names need to have their own separate namespace. -- ] 13:00, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)

			== "especifically" is probably misspelled. ==
	I contacted ] about it before doing it. I went over all the articles to make sure I fixed up all the links. Hopefully I didn't miss any.

			My title for this message is taken from . The #1 hit is from Merriam-Webster, listing a "new word", seemingly explaining it as a ], but contributed by someone who offered their name but no title or affiliation with the name. The #2 is a ''partial'' match to the entry for the ''Catalan'' word "especific", in en:Wikt, and other en:WP and en:Wikt hits are on a talk page and in descriptions of ''other'' words' specific domains, respectively -- by contributors who i think in each case were a non-native English-speaker. #5 is the personal name of a 'net-graphical paper-doll on a choose-from-this-list-of-languages page. I haven't checked ], but i'm pretty sure ''English'' use of the word is somewhere on the range between super-peculiar and bizarre. I admire the many non-native speakers of English whose English is far better than my only even-marginally-usable second language, but IMO this term should be thot of as a trap.<br>--]•] 08:48, 11 May 2015 (UTC)<br>
	''Angel'' has the same problem: there's an episode named ''Darla''. -- ] 13:14, 9 Jul 2004 (UTC)

	Hi,

			{{reflist}}
	I wanted to let you know that I reverted your color changes and centering to the table for a few reasons:
			}}
	* there is no "bronze" color available (at least not on most browsers - that's why we use "#c96"), and those sections were showing up as white
	* centering the table centers all data in the table, including times (which then makes the '''WR''' notation cause the times to not line up)
	* most tables dealing with medal counts/results on Misplaced Pages are not centered on the page, and the footnote describing Phelps' withdrawal should not be centered (especially since the footnote normally will go over 2 lines)
	* and in a totally subjective thing, I just think the '''WR''' footnotes should be flush with the table if they take up more horizontal space than the table itself.

			To assist with the implementation of this requirement, please see ]. Modeled after ] and similar to that process, the ] will be created on 1 September 2015. Bureaucrats who have not met the activity requirements as of that date will be notified by email (where possible) and on their talk page to advise of the pending removal.
	If you want to discuss any of this with me, feel free to respond on ], here, or on my talk page. Thanks, ] 01:13, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)

			If the notified user does not return to bureaucrat activity and the permissions are removed, they will need to request reinstatement at ]. Removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon the affected user in any way.
	Okay, apparently the "#c96" thing is causing problems with other browsers as well. I suspect the problem's just IE not respecting "#abc" as opposed to "#aabbcc" codes - I only use the former because I'm lazy and am used to them after working w/ CSS.

			Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. –]] 20:53, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
	How does this look in your browser?
			*Please note that any potential restoration of permissions is also subject to ]: a former bureaucrat who has been completely inactive for three years would need to seek reinstatement at ] notwithstanding the above. –]] 12:28, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
			**Humm, I see. Well, I haven't been completely inactive since my original wikibreak until now, but I was inactive for a period a bit longer than 3 years between 2009 and 2012. I'm not sure if that's red tape, but I'm also not interested in "gaming the rules". As I had mentioned some time back, I was not particularly concerned with getting the tools back, given my inactivity. I had only considered that I might jump back in and maybe help given the "special procedure" mentioned in your original message. But even so I would look to get some kind of feedback or consensus from the Admin/Bcrat community before even considering putting in the request. If there would be bureaucratic concerns (no pun intended) which would require me to "wiki-lawyer" in order to get the tools back, I would think that the original purpose of trying to help would end up being defeated. ] (]) 14:37, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi! Welcome to Misplaced Pages. When you get a chance, drop us a note at Misplaced Pages:New user log to introduce yourself.

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.

You can sign your name on talk pages by using " ~~~ " for your username and " ~~~~ " for your username and a timestamp.

Welcome is a good place to start. Misplaced Pages:How does one edit a page gives editing help. Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style gives formatting info. Misplaced Pages:Policies and guidelines tell about the principles we operate on. It's important, but don't try to read it all now. Misplaced Pages:Help covers a broad range of useful topics. Misplaced Pages:Village pump is a place to ask questions. Misplaced Pages:Show preview explains how to double-check your edits before saving.

You should also feel free to drop me a question on my talk page. I'll answer if I'm here.

Happy editing, Isomorphic 04:10, 8 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Congratulations, you're an admin! Please try to be conservative in the use of your new capabilities. Best regards, The Uninvited Co., Inc. 22:41, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

You're now a bureaucrat, so jump in and help out where you can. Follow the discussions at the bureaucrat's noticeboard and use your new powers for good of course. :) - Taxman 15:08, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Ok, after I pestered Suisi, she gave you the oversite bit. Happy editing. Raul654 00:03, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi Redux. As requested on meta, your check-user flag is now active.

Please subscribe to checkuser-l and email checkuser-l-owner@wikipedia.org so that the listadmins know that you are allowed on the mailing list. (The list may contain confidential information). Bye. --Paginazero 06:35, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

It seems from your latest post to the Bureaucrat noticeboard that you haven't seen how fast this issue has moved. Administrators were given the ability to assign and remove "rollback" permissions a few days ago, see the user rights log or the new Requests for rollback board.

Welcome to my talk page!
Please add your message below this template and at the bottom of the page. (do it now)
I will generally reply in your talk page. Thanks.

Welcome back

I was happy to see your name appear in my watchlist just now and was even happier when I read your edit summary here. Welcome back, Redux; it's good you've returned. I remember you being the bureaucrat who made me an admin back in the day. :) Best. Acalamari 18:23, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you Acalamari!!! It is nice to be back. I had been meaning to for quite a while. Still lots of catching up to do, but I'll get there. Excellent to see that you have stuck around all these years :). It was my pleasure to "push the button" for your promotion. And it shows that the good, honest work we have been doing on the project for more than a decade really paid off. Redux (talk) 18:28, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

Good to see you back again. It's been a long while. :) - Mailer Diablo 02:26, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you Mailer!!! Nice to see you're still around as well :) It's a pleaseure to be back! :)

Disambiguation link notification for March 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Camille Muffat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Figaro. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:06, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Fixed. Thanks to the bot owner. Redux (talk) 11:47, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

"especifically" is probably misspelled.

My title for this message is taken from the top of the #4 US-Google hit for the word. The #1 hit is from Merriam-Webster, listing a "new word", seemingly explaining it as a portmanteau word, but contributed by someone who offered their name but no title or affiliation with the name. The #2 is a partial match to the entry for the Catalan word "especific", in en:Wikt, and other en:WP and en:Wikt hits are on a talk page and in descriptions of other words' specific domains, respectively -- by contributors who i think in each case were a non-native English-speaker. #5 is the personal name of a 'net-graphical paper-doll on a choose-from-this-list-of-languages page. I haven't checked OED, but i'm pretty sure English use of the word is somewhere on the range between super-peculiar and bizarre. I admire the many non-native speakers of English whose English is far better than my only even-marginally-usable second language, but IMO this term should be thot of as a trap.

Implementation of Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats#Bureaucrat activity requirements

You are receiving this message because you are listed at Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats#Former bureaucrats. Writ Keeper pointed out that these users were not directly notified of the community discussion ending August 2015, where consensus was reached to remove the bureaucrat permissions of users who have not participated in bureaucrat activity for three years.

As of 1 October 2015, any former bureaucrat who has not participated in bureaucrat activity for three years that wishes their bureaucrat permissions restored will need to request reinstatement at RFB.

If you intend to return to bureaucrat activity, please request restoration of permissions before 1 October 2015 or three years passes since your last bureaucrat activity, whichever is later.

“

Bureaucrats are expected to exercise the duties granted by their role while remaining cognizant of relevant community standards concerning their tasks. In addition to the "Inactive bureaucrat accounts" requirements, if a bureaucrat does not participate in bureaucrat activity for over three years, their bureaucrat permissions may be removed. The user must be notified on their talk page and by email one month before the removal, and again and a few days prior to the removal. If the user does not return to bureaucrat activity, another bureaucrat may request the removal of permissions at meta:Steward requests/Permissions. Permissions removed for not meeting bureaucrat activity requirements may be re-obtained through a new request for bureaucratship.

Bureaucrat activity is widely construed and includes acting or commenting as a bureaucrat at any venue including WP:BN/RFA/RFB/RFBAG/BRFA and responding to requests in their capacity as a global renamer or subscriber to the bureaucrats' mailing list or signalling that they remain actively engaged and available for bureacrat tasks.

”

To assist with the implementation of this requirement, please see Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrat activity. Modeled after Misplaced Pages:Inactive administrators and similar to that process, the log page will be created on 1 September 2015. Bureaucrats who have not met the activity requirements as of that date will be notified by email (where possible) and on their talk page to advise of the pending removal.

If the notified user does not return to bureaucrat activity and the permissions are removed, they will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFB. Removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon the affected user in any way.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. –xeno 20:53, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Please note that any potential restoration of permissions is also subject to Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats#Inactive bureaucrat accounts: a former bureaucrat who has been completely inactive for three years would need to seek reinstatement at WP:RFB notwithstanding the above. –xeno 12:28, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
- Humm, I see. Well, I haven't been completely inactive since my original wikibreak until now, but I was inactive for a period a bit longer than 3 years between 2009 and 2012. I'm not sure if that's red tape, but I'm also not interested in "gaming the rules". As I had mentioned some time back, I was not particularly concerned with getting the tools back, given my inactivity. I had only considered that I might jump back in and maybe help given the "special procedure" mentioned in your original message. But even so I would look to get some kind of feedback or consensus from the Admin/Bcrat community before even considering putting in the request. If there would be bureaucratic concerns (no pun intended) which would require me to "wiki-lawyer" in order to get the tools back, I would think that the original purpose of trying to help would end up being defeated. Redux (talk) 14:37, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
  - Thank you for understanding. –xeno 14:49, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Misplaced Pages (see our policy for non-free media).

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 22:15, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

I was recently on the Boulder City, Nevada page, and it cites Robert M. Broadbent (https://en.wikipedia.org/Robert_N._Broadbent). However, that page shows as being deleted by you. Besides being the Clark County Aviation Director, he was also the first mayor of Boulder City, Nevada. (https://en.wikipedia.org/Boulder_City,_Nevada). I want to resurrect the page, adding other tidbits about this person who is important in the history of Southern Nevada (Clark County is where Las Vegas is located). Misplaced Pages rules state that I should contact the person who did the deleting, beforehand. I'm doing that now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WaltCD (talk • contribs) 14:39, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Domluis.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Domluis.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Misplaced Pages. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item 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 creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media 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 the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:47, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
