| ==REQUEST FOR UNBLOCK== | |||
| I was not disrupting ''anyone'''s talk page. Following directions on a tagged image page in an article on ], I had followed the request to post '''a template''' (''as requested'' on the image page in question) on the talk pages of the uploaders (2 people, including ] and ]. What I posted on each of those users' talk pages was the content of a template, preceded or followed by an explanation about why I was posting it. | |||
| The "troll"-like comment was posted by someone else and then followed by another reply to me (''not by me''), after I pointed out the seriousness of the template message, accusing me personally of having no sense of humor etc. ("lighten up" etc.) | |||
| ''I'' was not trolling. I was ''seriously'' reponding to the comment, pointing out the ''seriousness'' of the fair use template and so on. I was blocked while editing to clarify my reply to the other person's troll-like comment, without any prior warning placed on my own talk page alerting me that there was even a problem at all. | |||
| To accuse me of trolling in this context and to block me (espec. without prior warning) is to abuse administrative powers. Please read my original message, the reply to it, and my subsequent reply. I was correcting typographical errors in my own comment and trying to make it as clear as possible when you blocked me. You have no basis for doing that. I have no interest in making any further comments on the talk page of Raul654. | |||
| I ''seriously'' suggested that the other user, who identified himself as an administrator and who referenced knowing Raul654 well, e-mail Raul654 to alert him to the problem about the image. | |||
| Again, posting a template about the image on the uploaders' talk pages is exactly what Misplaced Pages's fair use template says to do. I followed policy, the person who replied to what I posted did not. If anyone was trolling, the other user was; not I. | |||
| If you happen to be personal friends with any of these parties, please do not allow them to use you to block well-meaning editors from doing work on Misplaced Pages. I quoted Misplaced Pages policy: "comment on the content, not the contributor" because I ''was'' commenting on content, whereas the reply to the template message that I had posted made it into a ''personal'' issue and cast ''personal'' aspersions on my template message. That was ridiculous, which I pointed out. | |||
| '''Please unblock my IP address immediately'''. I have other work to do and your block is keeping me from being able to do it. Thank you. And please remove the double-blocking message from the blocked IP addresses page. I really don't want them there, since they are totally unjustified. | |||
| Again, I have no interest in posting anything else other than what I have already posted on the talk page of Raul654. I will be deleting this entire discussion after the block is removed, which I think should be right away. I think you have made a ill-considered, serious mistake and need to correct your error.--NYScholar 05:04, 25 November 2006 (UTC) | |||
| I posted the same message on the talk page of ]--it is a ''template'' as requested in the image page in question: see that image page and click on the two user-uploaders, to see how I got to their talk pages as directed by the template in each case. The image in question is "Image:Harold Pinter.jpg." (I don't want the photo to appear here, so I'm not linking to it. Links are in the messages from the templates on each talk page of the uploaders.) | |||
| '''Please go to the image page and read the "speedy deletion" messages to see the instructions that I was following in the tagged message on that page; they direct one to post the template on the user talk pages of the uploaders of the image''' (the two users linked at start of this comment). | |||

| '''Notify the uploader with | |||
| " { { subst : Missing rationale | Image: Harold Pinter. jpg } } ~ ~ ~ ~''' | |||
| >> | |||
| I should not be blocked for following those Misplaced Pages template instructions and then replying to troll-like criticism for simply having done so. The actual troller (not I) should be warned and blocked if he doesn't heed the warning. He is violating ].NYScholar 17:21, 25 November 2006 (UTC) | |||

| Thanks for uploading ''']'''. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under ] but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as <nowiki>{{fair use}}</nowiki> or <nowiki>{{fair use in|article name}}</nowiki>, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. | |||
| Please go to ] and edit it to include a ]. | |||
| If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "]" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on ]. If you have any questions please ask them at the ]. Thank you.

| You may also add {{speedy-image-c|]}} to the image captions.image without rationale for fair use as of 2006-11-22 (CSD I6)</blockquote> | |||
