] was clearly created with a name intended to harass me. One of the accounts few edits was to promote "Noyce Publications". Only one editor that I'm aware of who's ever promoted the works of John Noyce on Misplaced Pages, and that is ]. Sahajhist has now been proven to have abused sock puppets stretching back over a year.

Thanks for uploading File:Hives die cds.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Misplaced Pages under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Misplaced Pages. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. 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).

PLEASE NOTE:

  • I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
  • I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
  • If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
