| Hi HJ, hate to bug ya, but I'm going to! You recently blocked {{ipvandal|86.160.229.244}}. They recently reverted me without explanation, however they content I removed contained a lot of grammar errors, including what looks to me like pure gibberish. ''Amelia "Amy" Jones (])- the smart girl city of frank elementary school and Ozzy and Leah's 10 year old daughter, greatly her ingénues brainstorming ideas lead her into and out of trouble but in the end Amy is forgiven by both her mom and her dad and always gets what she asks for nicely.'' I also don't see Ariel Winter included at , which I would never use as a source, only as a BS detector. I also don't see the character Amelia, so I'm thinking possible vandalism.

| Hey, I was just wondering how I can add a photo to a wikipage that is marked as copyrighted. For example, I have been trying to add a photo of Michiel Huisman to his wikipage but I can't seem to find any copyright-free images on the internet. I have searched on google pictures with the searched options set to "licenced for free use or share" but there are no photos of him that are licenced with that. What do I have to do to add one? Do I have to buy a picture? Can I take a screenshot and claim it mine? Can I ask for example michiel-huisman.com (which is a fansite) for permission to use one of the photos in their gallery? What do I have to do? It would be nice if you explained it to me like I am an idiot (cuz I kinda am :P). If you can't help please tell me who can, so I can ask them istead. | |||
| ] (]) 00:26, 14 March 2015 (UTC) | |||
| :{{ping|Sebahed}} There's fair use, but Misplaced Pages policy is quite restrictive on that and non-free photos of living people are almost never allowed. The best thing to do is to ask somebody who owns a photo whether they'd be willing to release it. In simple terms, they'd have to be happy for anyone to use it as long as they give credit and don't try to pass it off as their own. Then they'd probably need to fill in ] and fire it off to us in an email. Let me know if you get anyone to agree to all of that and I'll do what I can to help. ] | ] 00:56, 14 March 2015 (UTC) | |||

| Hi {{u|HJ_Mitchell|HJ}}, Apologies for the interruption. I just wanted to bring this edit to your attention. It's functionally the same as an edit previously reverted by you here, and there seems to be some discussion of a banned user in some of the edit summaries on the page. I don't know enough about the subject material to really comment; but it seems like a change of this magnitude, removing a lot of (what seems like) non-controversial content should probably involve some Talk page consensus first. - ] <sup>]</sup> 03:16, 14 March 2015 (UTC) | |||

Hello HJ Mitchell. I wish you a Happy New Year for 2025.
On the talk page of Philip Cross, I have expressed the hope that his indefinite block given in October 2022 could be reviewed by an Admin, as Philip has made over 200,000 helpful edits to Misplaced Pages and as per WP:AGF, my view is that Philip's edits were not an intentionally malicious attempt to bend the rules of his British Politics ban.
However, I don't know if an appeal has to come directly from Philip himself for a review. If that is the case, then it would be up to Philip himself to submit an appeal. Regards, Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 01:27, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
