Clarification please

Thank you for the guidance on the Guitar World's 100 greatest guitar solos article, but could you clarify what was wrong with the wording? I don't see anything wrong with my phrasing. Daniel Olsen 03:06, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Idiotic question

At the risk of catching hell from the WP:NPA police, your question at Talk:Abortion was moronic. You'd be better off researching that kind of thing on your own before asking such an ignorant question. If it weren't for your age, you'd come off as some kind of racist troll instaed of a plain old idiot. --Elliskev 23:06, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Cross posted to User talk:Elliskev.

I concur that his comment on Talk:Abortion was a little bit too sensitive, and not necessarily the most productive way to handle that situation. That said, your post above is most assuredly a personal attack, and you are now being warned to cease and desist. I am especially not impressed that you posted this far more serious assault on Joey's user talk page, where it would presumably attract less attention than on the article talk page. I see from your talk page you have been warned before; take this one to heart and try to be more civil in your dealings with others. And one final note; age is completely irrelevent. One of the admins I most respect is 16 (15 when he made admin) and one of the trolls I block on sight is over 50. Maturity, not age, is the focus. KillerChihuahua 11:30, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Joeyramoney, please accept my apologies for my uncivil comments. Calling another editor an idiot is not constructive. It's not nice. --Elliskev 13:56, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

NPA

This post is completely unacceptable. Refrain from personally attacking others. "absolute douchebag" is beyond the threshold of tolerance, and I seriously considered blocking you immediately for that. This is your one heads-up: if you want to engage in exchanging insults and flame wars, Misplaced Pages is NOT the place. Find somewhere else. KillerChihuahua 11:35, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

you read his response to me and what he has said to others. i'm sorry if that was out of line, but i'm not the problem here. Joeyramoney 16:16, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

When I post to him, I'll talk about what he did. I'm posting to you, and I'm talking about what you did. Is this somehow unclear? You are responsible for your posts. I don't care if he called you every name in the book, deleted your posts, and forged your signature. (If he did those things, report him of course.) Do not make personal attacks regardlss of what the target of your personal attacks may or may not have done. Two wrongs do not make it ok; they make you both in the wrong.

POV police

Hi Joeyramoney,

You might be interested in looking at User:Rfrisbie/Userboxes/Religion, User:Rfrisbie/Userboxes/Beliefs, and User:GRBerry/Userbox migration before you start worrying about the POV police too much. Rfrisbie 12:05, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Ramones

You wrote, "why did you remove the image from this article without explanation? i don't see how it doesn't belong. Joeyramoney 05:42, 1 August 2006 (UTC)"

Hi. The fair-use rationale for that particular cover states that it can only be used to signify the album in question. So it's fine for the Ramones (album) article, but not okay for the Ramones (group) article. =] Feel free to find another, fair-use, promotional, or free-use image for the article, and I'll gladly assist you with adding it to the page. --DieHard2k5 | Talk 15:46, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:Median age.png

The image was up for deletion over copyright concerns. I assumed good faith and assumed you were the original creator (translator) and acted accordingly.

The only real copyright issue I see is that the spanish version is released under GNU which is incompatible with PD license you used. Nothing too serious, but wont hurt to address it either.

Furthermore, it would be nice to know what data the map is based on. I was wondering if you could inquire this with the spanish guy who created the original image.

--Cat out 01:52, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

The image needs an update, Brazil's color is wrong.

As I am a complete newbie on Misplaced Pages, I couldn't update it myself, though I tried...

Could you update it for me? Or teach me how to do it?

Machine Gun

Ok, the official lyrics are fight like a bomber, not fight like a farmer like you or whoever keeps changing it back to. Stop it. You're adding inaccurate information to a song that has one of the best guitar solos ever.

Hello, I see you are editing again. Can you please clarify what happened before I blocked you? Was your account used by someone else, or did you decide to vandalize a bit? HighInBC 18:41, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

i keep myself logged in all the time, so my little brother (or someone) must have been massing around. sorry 'bout that, Joeyramoney 20:37, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Ok, but you are responsible for your account, so perhaps you should stay logged out after use, or lock your door, or lock your computer. HighInBC 21:02, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Image:Snowbelt.jpg

A tag has been placed on Image:Snowbelt.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

File permission problem with File:6 western floral.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:6 western floral.jpg, which you've attributed to Copied from eBay. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Misplaced Pages:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Misplaced Pages's image use policy.

Better source request for File:6 western floral.jpg

Thanks for your upload to Misplaced Pages:

• File:6 western floral.jpg

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:02, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
