Welcome to my user talk page. Please feel free to leave me a message.

I will reply to your message on this page as to not break up the conversation. Please put this page on your watchlist.

Multiplexes

I agree with making it clear (on US 52) what's a multiplex, but I don't think they should be in their own section, to keep everything in order along the road. --SPUI (talk) 01:07, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

RI routes

I managed to fix the extra whitespace - see RI 1A. --SPUI (talk) 01:33, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Also, can you add to the part of RI 51 about RIDOT taking down the signs after being asked to by the towns? --SPUI (talk) 02:00, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Holy shit

Check out the 1972 (lower left) configuration in Image:I-95_RI_exit_27.jpg, specifically the one-way roads. The bridge carrying US 1 over I-95 was one-way south. 1962 (upper right) had a short one-way pair as well. --SPUI (talk) 22:35, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Yo

I'm making maps for the routes - I've made Image:RI 1A map.png so far. I'd like to be sure everything in the base map (Image:RI State Highways base.png) is fine before continuing. Two things I can think of:

  • Does 179 end at 81 or the state line?
  • What do various sources say about 114 in Cumberland? Other than that one wicked old reassurance, it appears most if not all signs putting it on the northern route say TO 114, while the 123 route has the signs at the split from 123.

--SPUI (talk) 15:44, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Signage also shows 114 with 123 though, and most of the signage putting 114 on Blackstone says TO 114. It could be argued in the same way that 138 southbound stays with 24 until exit 2. Eh, I'll probably keep what I have. Any comments on the format of the maps? --SPUI (talk) 17:47, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Signage going both ways on 114 specificially show 114 turning onto Blackstone. Southbound on Diamond Hill, there's a large green sign that points 114 to the right onto Blackstone. Going Northbound on Broad, there is a 114 trailblazer that points it to the right onto Blackstone.
  • The maps look great. One question though, what does green signify vs. red? --Analogdemon (talk) 17:54, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I seem to remember at least one of those signs saying TO 114. I'll keep it there though. Green is locally maintained and red is state maintained {I explain that in the caption on RI 1A). By the way, to get the signature, simply click the second-to-last button above the text box; it inserts the text --~~~~. --SPUI (talk) 18:51, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hmmm, the green in Westerly is rather hard to make out on the thumbnail - I'll try with different colors. --SPUI (talk) 18:55, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Jamestown Bridge

Hi! Thanks for noticing my Jamestown Bridge article. We actually share quite a few of interests. If you send me an email we can chat a bit, click the "email this user" box on the left of my homepage and send me a note. Gblaz 21:44, July 21, 2005 (UTC)

Fucking deletionists

Mind voting on Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion/Million Dollar Bridge (Portland,Maine-South Portland, Maine)? Thanks. --SPUI (talk) 23:16, 4 August 2005 (UTC)

US Interstate highway stub problems

At Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Proposals there is an ongoing debate about U.S. Interstate Highway Stub and US Highway stub... --Rschen7754 00:46, August 7, 2005 (UTC)

Monarchy in Canada (Featured Article nomination)

The images Image:Queen canada throne.jpg & Image:HM-tablet.jpg have been tagged as {CanadaCopyright} and {promophoto} respectivley. For the third image Image:Queencanada.jpg I'm am requesting information from the person who uploaded it. If no information is found on this image, it could just be removed from the article. --Mb1000 19:22, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Dual Disc FA objections

I don't want to seem too negative, but I don't think you could put anything in the article that would overcome my main objection, which is that the article can't be both comprehensive and stable, as required by FAC guidelines. The situation, for lack of a better word, is developing fairly rapidly -- I saw, for example, a "recent developments" article in the new ICE magazine this week. To oversimplify an analogy, I wouldn't support any FAC for an article on "The 2005 baseball season," no matter how good it was, until the season was over. FWIW, I also think the SACD discussion is out-of-date, given Sony's pullback, and there's a reference to a November 2005 article that I assume is misdated. Monicasdude 17:17, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion/Florida State Road 300 --SPUI (talk) 20:08, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

Voted to keep. Fucking deletionists. --Analogdemon (talk) 15:47, August 27, 2005 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Votes for deletion/Nevada State Route 401 --SPUI (talk) 04:31, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Voted to keep. Fucking deletionists. Damn them. --Analogdemon (talk) 15:03, September 4, 2005 (UTC)

Hahahahaha what the fuck

--SPUI (talk) 21:43, 15 September 2005 (UTC)

Whoever designed that should be in the genius category with whoever designed that US 7/VT 7A bypass interchange around Bennington, VT. I guess the person that owns that building and the property where the right turn ramp should be was a holdout. Good for that person. It looks like it didn't stop MDOT from building the interchange. --Analogdemon (talk) 13:27, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
I think it was probably to avoid another bridge over the railroad. --SPUI (talk) 16:37, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

List of California State Routes

Someone wants to convert this to a template so it wound up at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of California State Routes --Rschen7754 05:25, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Road stubs

All of the following made their way to WP:SFD:

--Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:49, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I put my two cents in. Fucking deletionists, I swear. --Analogdemon (talk) 14:30, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
That's "fucking consistent naming-schemers", please. Unless there's some actual reason for a) restriction to highways, b) infeasibly small stub categories, and c) inconsistent capitalisation? Alai 17:43, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

What?

Why does that get a "what the fuck"? It's a standard interchange between two main roads. --SPUI (talk) 20:54, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

Seasonal Affective Disorder

Anchorage is the only big city in the United States that is north of 50 degrees latitude. The SAD article singles out 50 degrees as the point above which SAD is a big problem. So the justification for the comment you reverted is in the SAD article, in my opinion. (Whether that can be backed up by sources is yet another story.)—GraemeMcRae 23:58, 2 November 2005 (UTC)

That's fair. I should have looked at that. In that case, I'll explore trying to find a source for that information in the SAD article. Cheers! --Analogdemon (talk) 01:39, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
Good, thanks. ANFSCD, I enjoyed your user page, especially the shitty article candidate. If I didn't think it would get reverted right away, I would put that into a template, and then place the template in a few different articles, starting with Human sexual behavior.—GraemeMcRae 08:19, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

OMG YOUR USER PAGE OFFENDS ME

Check out this temporary configuration. --SPUI (talk) 03:33, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

SPUI you're still the king of offensive user pages. That's pretty fucking cool. --Analogdemon (talk) 04:02, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
Nope, that's CA 163 (old US 395). The cool part is the temporary end of the freeway (still visible on aerials) with the section on two-lane road to reach the diamond. --SPUI (talk) 04:59, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

Fucken yo turducken

--SPUI (talk) 01:47, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

Hell yes. Nice jughandles. That reminds me of that part of US 91/466 that goes through the airport south of Las Vegas that I showed you the other day. They must have got rid of the single Y with US 2 once the NB 95 freeway was built on the Canadian side. Cool shit man. --Analogdemon (talk) 13:38, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

I am deeply offended...

...I mean honored by your SAC nomination. Not knowing exactly which article was nominated, I take it as a judgement of my work as a whole, and, once again, I couldn't be more pleased by the nomination. If I could be slightly serious for a minute, getting a shitty four-and-a-half point star is a pleasant reminder that this is just wikipedia, not world peace. We should all take a step back now and then, and just have a good laugh at all this.—GraemeMcRae 17:33, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

I agree with you 100%. I'm glad some of us have senses of humor on Misplaced Pages. :) --Analogdemon (talk) 17:56, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

Username change

Your request has been completed. Regards — Dan | Talk 02:40, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Strange RI US 1 shield

--SPUI (talk) 21:18, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, I've seen that site before. I'd kill for one of those RI US 1 signs. Especially the button copy one because it has the whole state name spelled out in Class A. --Analogdemon (talk) 03:14, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Ugliest cloverleaf?

That one's at least somewhat symmetrical - I think the penis one in Dallas is uglier. --SPUI (talk) 21:14, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

I-278

Looks like a few bits of I-278 are city-maintained - see . --SPUI (talk | don't use sorted stub templates!) 00:56, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

That's a bunch of shit. The City should not maintain a fucking Interstate. Oh well, it looks like the State is at least taking over mileage as they go, which is good. NYCDOT should not be in the business of maintaining fucking Interstates. --Analogdemon (talk) 01:43, 27 December 2005 (UTC)

Lincoln Highway

Nope. Princeton Pike is an old turnpike, while US 206 is an even older pre-turnpike road. The turnpike fell into disrepair, so the Lincoln Highway was routed over present US 206. It's much like US 1 and Route 1A south of Boston. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 21:51, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

File:US202.png

How much crack did the designer of that shitty looking shield take? --Analogdemon (talk) 14:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Turns out the 1913 route also went through Dugway. Note how County Well is on the list at the bottom. Lincoln Highway#Utah --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 23:54, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

I'll see how much I can get from this. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 05:51, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

By the way, we can't be assured of its accuracy - the New Jersey map puts it along the Calhoun Street Extension, which opened in 1932. --SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 06:13, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

SPUPCLO!!!

--SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 21:32, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Haha ugly shield

--SPUI (talk - don't use sorted stub templates!) 03:28, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Jesus, I haven't had coffee yet. Don't ever do that again! --Analogdemon (talk) 03:37, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Trolling

Your edits to your userpage were completely unacceptable. I have removed them. Do not replace them. If you do, I shall block you for a week for trolling and purposeful disruption. Consider this a final warning. Sam Korn 19:04, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Excuse me? Trolling? Who the fuck are you to decide what is and is not acceptible content for a USER page? What the fuck? How can I make a TROLLING EDIT to my OWN user page? Wow, is "shit-for-brains" a pre-requisite for becoming an admin? --Analogdemon (talk) 23:39, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
Reply on my talk page. Sam Korn 00:05, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Having problems with authority figures?

If you feel you are being given a "RAW DEAL" by an abusive administrator feel free to consult The Emperor Of Misplaced Pages here http://en.wikipedia.org/User:Cenestrad He is wise and just and has had a one month ban on me personally lifted. I recomend him and Administrator UncleG's userpages to help remedy your problems. pickelbarrel 02:15, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Personal attacks

Could you please remove the personal attacks from your user page? Personal attacks are not conducive to civil discussions here on Misplaced Pages, so they are not allowed. See Misplaced Pages:No personal attacks. It would be best if you removed them voluntarily. You're free to express your disagreement with the arbitration committee, but namecalling isn't acceptable. Thanks. Rhobite 05:46, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

Now please remove the link to the old version of your user page. This is the last warning you'll receive from me. Thanks. Rhobite 18:04, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

SPUI

Not a problem, SPUI was treated wrong, and I know how that feels. Hopefully my petition will be able to do something once enough people stand up and say that we need fair treatment for everybody. Karmafist 00:55, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Oh, the Sam Korn Thing

I know he's "one of them", but he's been a nice guy to me, and i'd like to ask you to remove all or some of them. I think that's the thread that's caused all of the problems here "they" have said "don't do this or else" "we"(although I admit, i've been a "they" at times when I was tired or frustrated)say "screw you" and the cycle of counterproductivity continues.

Hell, you don't have to get rid of all of them, you don't even have to listen me and you can keep them up there, but it'd be a big first step. Whatever happened has already happened, you can't change that. But you can change the present. Hopefully by doing that we can help Sam understand what's been going on, that the only way to beat hatred is not with more hatred but with friendship and kindness, he apologizes to SPUI, and the cycle of healing after all this nonsense can begin as we dissolve the "us" and "them" until there's only a "we" left. God, what I wouldn't give for that... Karmafist 01:51, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

You're right. I removed the stuff. --Analogdemon (talk) 01:53, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Your userpage

I removed some material from it. It should be clear by now to you and everyone else that our tolerance for that sort of material is low and our sense of humor regarding it is nonexistent. Please don't re-add it. The Uninvited Co., Inc. 01:58, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Analogdemon, you are mistaken concerning the policies of Misplaced Pages on user pages. The following is directly from Misplaced Pages:User page:

As a tradition, Misplaced Pages offers wide latitude to users to manage their user space as they see fit. However, pages in user space still do belong to the community. (emphasis added)

Removal

If the community lets you know that they'd rather you deleted some or other content from your user space, you should probably do so, at least for now - such content is only permitted with the consent of the community. After you've been here for a year or so, and written lots of great articles, the community may be more inclined to let you get away with it. Alternatively, you could move the content to another site, and link to it.
If you do not co-operate, we will eventually simply remove inappropriate content, either by editing the page (if only part of it is inappropriate), or by redirecting it to your main user page (if it is entirely inappropriate).
In excessive cases, your user subpage may be deleted, following a listing on Miscellany for deletion, subject to deletion policy. Please do not recreate content deleted in this way: doing so is grounds for immediate re-deletion (see candidates for speedy deletion). Instead, please respect our judgement about what is and is not appropriate.

Bratsche 21:48, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Yes. Please delete your divisive userpage trolling. Thank you.Voice of All 01:47, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
No. --Analogdemon (talk) 01:48, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Enough

As has been stated, user pages belong to the community. As a result, while there is more leeway, what you have been doing has exceeded the bounds of what many people consider good taste. You have already been asked by more than one admin to stop so please do so. Thanks - Damicatz 02:16, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

It Looks Like I Was Beaten To The Punch

By the time I got out of work tonight(around 10:30 EST), it had already been closed. Perhaps sanity is finally coming back to this place.Oh, I was wondering if you'd mind signing my petition. Karmafist 05:00, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Your User Page

Your argument is fallacious. Using a reductio ad absurdam, one could say, "If you don't like slavery, then don't own slaves," or "if you don't like strangling babies, then don't do it." Offensive content has no place on Misplaced Pages. 69.129.36.239 19:33, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I seem to remember the phrase "user pages aren't encyclopedic", so your newest argument would fall under the logical fallacy of false analogy. And by a quick review of your talk page above, it would seem like the majority find it offensive, including several, ahem, administrators. 69.129.36.239 19:40, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
All of the encyclopedia is all of our concern. We're a community. And you should Misplaced Pages:Assume good faith in that I am trying to improve the community. Also, this doesn't fall under the category of "vandalism." See WP:IAR. 69.129.36.239 19:50, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
If your user page drives people away from the project, then it's bad. Which is exactly what is wrong. The onus isn't on me: it's on you to have a user page which somehow helps Misplaced Pages. And since you refuse to, then the onus shifts once again to the community, which I happen to be a part of, albeit anonymously. Oh, one more thing: I think you should read Misplaced Pages:Don't bite the newbies. You're doing it. 69.129.36.239 19:59, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

To clear any confusion

I'm assuming that you misunderstood my intentions. I was not complaining about the box itself. I was solely complaining about how you were intentionally fanning the flames to make a point. I hope this makes everything clear. Please ask if you have any questions. Sam Korn 00:46, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Thank you!

My dear Analogdemon (now that is an original name! ;) I just wanted to thank you for your encouraging and kind message regarding my thoughts. I know, we all get angry from time to time; but it is exactly our ability to realize this and act to straighten things up that makes us human, just as you say. Please, feel free to visit me every time you wish - I swear I'd give you a lenghtier reply if I wasn't so sleepy! Again, thank you - you really made my day. *Smoochs!* Phædriel - 00:53, 16 February 2006 (UTC) PS. I love your userpage - you really made me laugh ;)

Drafts

Please create this page for your drafts. You article is likely to be deleted if it stays where it is. User:Analogdemon/Drafts

Bobby1011 02:00, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm not an admin, so I can't delete it directly. Thanks very much for co-operating. It's just not a good idea to create temporary pages like that because eventually someone must delete them, and if everyone did it, the admins would have no time for anything else. Thanks again. Bobby1011 02:06, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Request for edit summary

Hi. I am a bot, and I am writing to you with a request. I would like to ask you, if possible, to use edit summaries a bit more often when you contribute. The reason an edit summary is important is because it allows your fellow contributors to understand what you changed; you can think of it as the "Subject:" line in an email. For your information, your current edit summary usage is 31% for major edits and 60% for minor edits. (Based on the last 150 major and 10 minor edits outside the Misplaced Pages, User, Image, and all Talk namespaces.)

This is just a suggestion, and I hope that I did not appear inpolite. You do not need to reply to this message, but if you would like to give me feedback, you can do so at the feedback page. Thank you, and happy edits, Mathbot 03:34, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Good work

Hi Analogdemon. I think you're doing good work on the DVD Audio article, Beach Boys POV, and of course roads. Our interests overlap to some extent, which is why I'd be disappointed if you quit Misplaced Pages or got blocked. I don't mind anything on your user page right now, I guess I'm just puzzled about why you are (were) trying to push the envelope with its content. I'm also disappointed at SPUI's departure, but I can't say I'm surprised given his tendency to make personal attacks and to add provocative content to his user page. That's all I'll say about it, I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate the work you're doing, particularly on DVD-Audio. Rhobite 19:46, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

References

No problem; I actually meant to leave a note here earlier pointing you to some small documentation. So I'll do that now. =) See m:Cite/Cite.php. —Locke Coletc 05:09, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

Hey, man, thanks. Great job on the DVD-Audio article ! --Hdante 15:03, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

what's up w/ everybody leaving?

SPUI's gone now?? that sucks anal leakage. I liked to see people push the envelope a lil. I'm worried about the people leaving phenomenon. I know we've got more new people than ever and I'm sure there's quality among them, but I fear that as this place grows it grows more bureaucatic and administrative and, quite simply, gay. say hi for me. skizzno 05:25, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

Aww, thanks!

Awww, thanks so much for the lovely gift, hun! I'll wear the new star you gave me with pride and gratitude, and don't dismay - the quality of humour is in the eye of the beholder ;) Kisses! Phædriel - 01:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

ERP

After futher review of other radio stations listed on Misplaced Pages, I have discovered that a large number of them do NOT have their ERP listed. Therefore, I have taken the liberty of removing it. --Jerry-- Does this clown know that A.M. stations DO NOT have E.R.P.s but T.P.O.s??? Assclown!

I'm writing regarding the article 87.9 MHz, after reading it I'm have trouble understanding how this frequency is in line with our notability guidelines, so I'm listing it at Articles for deletion, I hope you can give us your opinions there. Thanks. Eivind 22:39, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

Rhode Island

What do you think about moving the RI Routes from "Rhode Island State Highway X" to "Route X (Rhode Island)"? "Route X" seems to be the only term used by RIDOT, and "(Rhode Island)" is standard disambiguation. --SPUI (talk - RFC) 23:20, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

If you want to actually take the time to do it and have time to move all those articles, then I say:

HOLY SHIT I FOUND IT

I-95 mileage

Hey, can you do me a favor? Next time you're on I-95 near the Rhode Island/Massachusetts line, can you check for the highest milepost in Rhode Island? FHWA says I-95 is 42.36 miles in RI, but other sources indicate it's more than 43 miles, and I'd like to be sure before asking the FHWA if they made a typo. --SPUI (talk - RFC) 21:48, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm 99.9% sure the last milepost is mile 42, just before the state line, but I'll make sure. I'll be up that way tomorrow. --Analogdemon (talk) 02:33, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

Can you remind me in the next day or two to finish with the Pennsylvania Lincoln Highway book? It's due Saturday and I haven't yet gotten all the information. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 06:05, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

This will be the first U.S. Route realigned onto an Interstate in Florida, not counting the two caused by necessity (I-275/US 19 over the Sunshine Skyway and I-4/US 92 (now redone with C/D roads) east of Tampa, where US 92 was upgraded on the spot at US 301). --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 08:17, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Also see this line from the standard AASHTO form:

The State agrees and pledges its good faith that it will not erect, remove, or change any U.S. or Interstate Route Markers on any road without the authorization, consent, or approval of the Standing Committee on Highways of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, not withstanding the fact that the changes proposed are entirely within this State.

Sospected sockpuppet of DPUI?

Hey, Analogdemon, are you a sockpuppet of DPUI or a sockpuppet of SPUI? Your page says DPUI. Is that a mistake? User:Raffaello9 - 15:22, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

SPUI is a friend of mine. I made the account DPUI as a joke, and listed myself as a sockpuppet of it. The DPUI account has since been deleted for being too similar to SPUI, but I left the sockpuppet reference just for shits and giggles. --Analogdemon (talk) 15:35, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Holy maps! Very sweet. It looks like US 50 had a several hundred mile gap in it originallly between Ely, NV and Provo, UT. Also it looks like US 2 in VT originally went along US 302 and US 5 between Montpelier and St. Johnsbury. --Analogdemon (talk) 11:27, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

Illinois Route 4

Check out the shield on the bridge. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 10:17, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

HOLY FUCK. WOW!!!!! Does IL-4 pre-date US 66?
Yeah - Illinois Route 4 was the pre-1926 designation for US 66. It's still in use on a section south of Springfield that was bypassed early.
Here's another sign from about the same period. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 23:11, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Very cool!!!! --Analogdemon (talk) 23:57, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

Cool MassHighway maps online

- especially check out the "Numbered Routes with Mile Points" linked from page 13. By the way, 80 apparently has a hanging end now, just like 147. (These maps don't show new US 44 yet though.) A few things I notice from a quick loop at the maps:

  • Route 9 has been relocated in Pittsfield. (More info here.)
  • Route 15 (extension of RI 15) exists!

I'll continue once I get back from biking. --SPUI (T - C - RFC) 10:42, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Route 116 begins where it crosses under I-91 at the I-91 bridge over the Connecticut River; there's no access to I-91 there.
  • Mileposts on A routes continue through "secret multiplexes" with their parents.
  • Route 127 does in fact begin/end at the first rotary on Route 128 - it no longer ends at itself.
  • Routes 114 and 129 end at each other - I think we knew this.
  • Route 1A ends at the US 1/I-95/Route 128 cloverleaf in Dedham.
  • Route 38 is shown ending at Route 28. Route 99 begins south of Sullivan Square.

And some details from the database:

  • Route 99 begins at Austin Street/Gilmore Bridge.
  • Route 147 ends at US 5 in West Springfield.
  • Route 228 ends where the median begins and George Washington Boulevard accesses the northbound lanes, or maybe slightly further north.
  • (State) Route 3 becomes US 3 at Mass Ave! (I carefully checked the mileage in both directions; the maps also put a US 3 shield between Mass Ave and the BU Bridge.) So I guess the MDC didn't fuck up on that one sign. But they did fuck up the sign on the Longfellow.
  • Route 2 begins and ends at the corner of Charles Street and Beacon Street, which is what we basically knew.
  • The database shows old US 44 as Route 44A!
  • Many arterials are assigned a "secret" number from N001 to N474. Some numbers are skipped, implying that these numbers may have been around for a while. (N362 - the ramp from I-93 north at exit 37C - is the only one that's not an arterial at all; that could just be an error in the data.)

The Beatles discography detailed US LP discography

Great job so far in compiling a detailed discography of the original American Beatle LPs. The only thing I would suggest is to include the track listings. In the case of American LPs which exactly match the British LPs, simply state 'as British album.' I'll be looking forward to the Magical Mystery Tour (album) listing.

Beatles News
  • Apple Corps v. Apple Computer. A case brought by Apple Corps against Apple Computer, regarding possible infringement of a previous agreement between the two parties in respect of distribution of music, was heard in a London High Court. The story made Misplaced Pages's front page due to a nomination by our own Kingboyk. The story had an amusing second wave in the news and on Misplaced Pages; be sure to read the article on Guy Goma if you missed it!
Project News
  • The hottest Project page this month has been Policy Talk, where some lively discussion has taken place regarding the (perennial) question of the capitalisation of the letter T in "The Beatles". After seeking the comments of Wikipedian third parties unrelated to the project, the proponents and opponents concluded that the current naming policy was correct. The discussion had the added bonus of bringing in some new members.
Member News
  • Project member (and "co-instigator" of The Beatles Project) Lar was made an Administrator. Project member Kingboyk (the other guilty party) has been awarded a Music Barnstar for his contributions, including his work within The Beatles Project, and has also stewarded the KLF article to Featured Article status this month. Sometimes-contributor ZincOrbie has also been awarded a Barnstar for his work on the Badfinger article. Congratulations to all!

Duuuuuuuuude

The numbering system for France's Route Nationales dates back to an 1824 modification of 1811 plans made under Napoleon. See fr:Réseau routier français#Premier Empire, fr:Réseau routier français#Restauration et Monarchie de Juillet "The imperial system of classification is re-examined in 1824 (it will almost not change until the downgradings of 1974)." and for instance fr:Route nationale 14 "It is into 1824 that one created the trunk road 14 following this layout.". Also see Talk:Route nationale (France)#Imperial routes for the simple renumbering in 1824. --SPUI (T - C) 18:45, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

  • New article classification system, for our use and for Misplaced Pages 1.0. Very important and we need editor involvement. How can you help? Rate articles! It's easy:
    • Visit Misplaced Pages:WikiProject The Beatles/Article Classification and read about how to grade.
    • Visit Category:Unassessed Beatles articles and select an article to review.
    • After deciding what grade it should have, modify the invocation of {{WPBeatles}} on the talk page to add parms. The template itself gives you the parameters to use. For example, change {{WPBeatles}} to {{WPBeatles|B|Low}} if you think it's a low-importance, B-class article. Save your changes and make sure the talk page is now showing the ratings.
    • Click on the link in the template to edit the /comments subpage and explain why you rated the article the way you did. Don't forget to sign with ~~~~. Save that too.
    • Questions? Ask Kingboyk or Lar for help.
  • Want to stay up on new project developments? Watchlist all of the WikiProject pages plus The Beatles and each of the 4 members, to get a feel for what's happening. Also monitor and regularly review Misplaced Pages:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/The Beatles articles by quality log. If an article is listed on there as "added", go check the article's history. If it's new since the Project began add it to the Project Log as a new article and up the counter by one :)

Beatles News
  • The Beatles in the news. Suggestions:
Project News
  • The Beatles article, the "Flagship" of the Project, is currently under review with regard to its Featured Article status. It is hoped that the review will identify those areas that need some(/lots of) remedial work, and that the Project participants and those editors who are involved in the the FA admin pages to can work together to "save" the status of the article.
    • At the moment there is some discussion as to why it has been listed, and what may be needed to help it retain its FA status. It may well be that some work is going to be required in formulating a plan of action, and then some more in achieving those aims.
    • The FA status is obviously quite important to the Project, and it would be appreciated if participants are able to provide assistance in keeping the article up to standard. The editors would be grateful if those persons receiving this Newsletter could spare some of their time, energy and brainpower in keeping this jewel in our crown in its proper place. Please go to Misplaced Pages:Featured article review/The Beatles and get involved! Thank you.

Project member Kingboyk said of the nomination, "I'm quite happy about it really, as I feel that GA is about where we're at and gives some incentive to work on the article."
  • We have a new category for Beatles articles needing attention. If you're looking for something to work on, the articles in this category and the subcategories need some TLC. To put an article in this category, tag its talk page with {{WPBeatles|attention=yes}}.
  • Kingboyk has given {{WPBeatles}} another major overhaul, and has assessed all of the Beatles articles.

The lead article of the Project recently lost its FA status, and now some of the other articles are being reviewed. Citations and references within articles are again the major concern. Contributors who have literature (books, magazines, links, etc.) are especially needed to provide the necessary citations.

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter
Issue 007 – November 2006

Issue of the Month

Again, the issue of the month is inline citations. A Day in the Life, A Hard Day's Night (song), and Get Back have all been defeatured, as they failed to satisfy criterion 1(c) of What is a featured article?, and other song FAs are due for the chopping block. Inline citations are an important aspect of articles—they ensure verifiability and reliability, and they remove original research. Additionally, they give readers the option to read the original source material and view it within context.

Basically:

  1. All direct quotations attributed to Beatles members pooled from interviews need full inline citations.
  2. All critical comments about songs or albums need full inline citations to notable music critics, magazines opinions, or reviews, as opposed to being merely comments by Wikipedians.
  3. Inline citations need: author name, article name, publication date, and name of publication. Such info is still preferable even if quoting from an interview posted upon a website; when this is the case, place the URL link at the end of the citation with the date it was last accessed. (This will help editors retrieve the page using the Wayback Machine, should the link go dead in the future.)
Beatles News
  • The Beatles are due to release a soundtrack album, LOVE, at the end of November, as a companion to their Cirque du Soleil adaptation of the same name. It will feature remastered and remixed versions of their previously released songs, including some new medleys.
  • Paul's getting a divorce. Pain, arguing, and fighting abound.
Project News
  • The Wings tours are really nicely documented now (see Category:Wings tours), but Category:The Beatles tours is almost empty. Kingboyk and the rest of us would love to see (and read) articles on each Beatles tour, including the pre-fame tours of the UK—and the Hamburg trips, of course!
  • The hottest Project page this month has been Paul McCartney, involved in the Featured Article drive, as mentioned above.
Member News
  • Our project members are too modest to report any awards they may have given or received.
From the Editors

Wherever possible, editors should help to trim down on list-like prose within Beatles articles. They should convert list-like sections into fluent, cohesive prose which ties an article's sections together. Lists make articles disjointed, awkward, and difficult to read.

Be sure to take part in the Featured Article drive, and don't forget those inline citations!

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter Issue 8, December 2006

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter
Issue 008 – December 2006

Issue of the Month

Misplaced Pages's standards are improving all the time, with the result that many articles in The Beatles Wikiproject are being nominated for review of their FA and GA status - and many are losing that accolade. It is difficult, with such a large number of articles and the ease with which editors may make changes which are detrimental, to maintain the standard of articles, let alone improve them. As ever, members efforts are both appreciated and needed to keep the Project on course.

Beatles News
  • A Beatles compilation called "Love", featuring tracks remastered by George Martin (with his son Giles), has been released and has made number 1 in Canada.
  • The impending divorce between Paul McCartney and the former Heather Mills continues to make the pages in the tabloid press in the UK.
Project News
  • The hottest Project page this month has been Paul McCartney (see above and below).
Member News
From the Editors

If one is to be mercenary about the subject, it should be noted that Paul McCartney is going to be more noteworthy than usual in the near future as his divorce case comes to court. In that case it is great to note that a small group of Project Members (plus another individual who does not feel compelled to register himself despite important contributions) have worked very hard, and in an atmosphere of good humour, to take the McCartney piece to a succesful Good Article nomination. Perhaps this is the method to use for future articles, a small dedicated team concentrating on one subject at a time. Of course, all members are invited to join any existing group or even go about forming their own. Please note any such action in the Project Log.

If you've just joined, add your name to the Participants section of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject The Beatles. You'll get a mention in the next issue of the Newsletter and get it delivered as desired. Also, please include your own promotions and awards in future issues. Don't be shy!

Lastly, this is your newsletter and you can be involved in the creation of the next issue (Issue 009 – January 2007). Any and all contributions are welcome. Simply let yourself be known to any of the undersigned, or just start editing!

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter, Issue 9, January 2007

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter
Issue 009 – January 2007

  • The British Post Office have released a series of stamps depicting various Beatles album covers.
Project News

  • The good folk who have been working on the above article have turned their attention to the John Lennon page. Everyone is, of course, invited to contribute.
  • The hottest Project page this month has been the Macca (Paul for those not in the know!) article, again.
  • Other Project news... Please let the editors know if anything is happening, or just contribute it to the next newsletter.
Member News
Issue of the Month

The question of capitalising of the letter "t" in The of The Beatles has been raised again. It appears that UK style references (here and here) also maintains that the letter should be in lower case. If the Project is to be appear professional then it may have to change the format. Polite discussion is invited at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject The Beatles/Policy. If possible, please provide sources/references to support your position.

From the Editors

It has been a fairly quiet time with regard to the Project (or at least that is how it seems). If you are reading this and wondering why your efforts in respect of a Beatles article has not been mentioned, it may be that you haven't told any editor. This is your Newsletter, which means you can contribute to it, so please do!

Nice RIRivers template, but most of the entries don't have articles. I'm not sure it's worth it to have a template with so many red links.--Loodog 20:41, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

I am in the process of creating the articles. Within a week we'll have articles for every river. Cheers! --Analogdemon (talk) 20:55, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

List of Pennsylvania rivers move

Hi, I see you moved List of Pennsylvania rivers to List of rivers in Pennsylvania. However, you did not move the associated talk page (which is still at Talk: List of Pennsylvania rivers, Talk:List of rivers in Pennsylvania is blank). Nor did you go through and fix all the pages that now link to a redirect (see ]).

For the time being, I am moving the page back to its old name. Would you please mind explaining a) your rationale for the move and b) why you didn't fix all the changes the move made? I think you should discuss this at the List's talk page. I will leave a copy of this note there too. Thanks, Ruhrfisch 17:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Well over half of the "List of (state) rivers" pages had already been redirected to "List of rivers in (state)". This was merely for purposes of uniformity. I see nothing wrong with pages linking to redirects, as long as the redirects don't go more than one level deep. --Analogdemon (talk) 17:30, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
I had replied on the List atlk page before - thanks for fixing the double redirects and moving the talk page this time. Ruhrfisch 21:06, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

My bad. I figured you had accidentally uploaded a super small picture of the album cover rather than a better picture of what already existed. Had no idea that what is being used currently is actually the back of the album! Anyhoo, thanks for settin' me straight. =) Mike Beidler 17:41, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject The Beatles Newsletter
Issue 012 – April 2007

Beatles News
  • On Friday 30th March, a deranged fan was held after attempting to force his way into Paul McCartney's mansion. See here for more details.
  • Apple Corps continues to make news, after the recent settlement with Apple Computer over the use of the Apple trademark. On April 10th, the company announced that long-time chief executive Neil Aspinall had stepped down and had been replaced by American Jeff Jones. It was also announced that another long term dispute, this time with EMI over royalties, had been amicably settled prior to Aspinall's departure.
Project News
  • The article "Jeff Jones (music industry executive)" suddenly becomes of top importance in the Apple sphere of Beatledom. User:Kingboyk has created a stub on the man, but the article needs urgent beefing up (including basic biographical data such as date and place of birth) and, if possible, a photograph of the new Apple chief executive.
  • With the debate over "the Beatles" vs "The Beatles" continuing to cause ill feeling and a number of resignations from the project from advocates on both sides, Kingboyk attempted to diffuse the situation by blanking the Project Policy page and tagging it as {{historical}}. Although this unilateral action hasn't been reverted as of the time of writing, the reaction was mixed, with two members rejoining the project and others stating their disagreement. With the issue still not resolved, the page was sent to Miscellany for Deletion, for the wider community (and WikiProject The Beatles members) to consider the issue.
Member News
  • The membership list has been trimmed, with inactive members listed seperately to help gauge the status of the project. If you've been incorrectly listed as inactive, please don't be offended - just move yourself back to the main list.

Chicago's Group Portrait

I noticed you put Group Portrait into the unofficial compilations category. However, it is acknowledged on the band's website (unlike the Take Me Back to Chicago compilation) and they treat it as a part of their official discography (see http://www.chicagotheband.com/discography.htm and scroll down until you reach "Box Sets"). It is irrelevant that the boxed set was produced after they left Columbia Records. They still had a part in the production of the set, including participating in interviews for the set's book. Moreover, after the rights to their Columbia albums were sold back to the band, Chicago Records produced a double jewel case version of the set without the book. In short, the band considers the set to be an official release (albeit not a "numbered" release).

Good enough for me. Thanks for setting me straight. :) --Analogdemon (talk) 01:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:RevolverUSalbumcover.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:RevolverUSalbumcover.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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" 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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 13:51, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:BS&T3 cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:BS&T3 cover.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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 the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

BS&T 3

(Posted on Engineer Bob's talk page): Hi, I was just wondering if you could give me your reasoning for reverting to the original image for Image:BS&T3 cover.jpg? The image I uploaded was color-corrected to match the original vinyl cover and also had the Columbia logo in the upper left like the original vinyl release. We really should be showing as accurate a depiction as possible of the original release for any album. Cheers! -- Analogdemon 11:00, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

  • I agree with you in principle -- however, I reverted to the lowest-resolution version available in an attempt to keep the image from getting deleted altogether. -- Engineer Bob 19:37, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
My version is low enough resolution as to be acceptable for Misplaced Pages. I'm going to revert it back and include appropriate fair-use rationale. Cheers! --Analogdemon (talk) 19:44, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:NotoriousByrdBrothers.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:NotoriousByrdBrothers.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 "my contributions" 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:37, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:ByrdsThereIsASeasonBox.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:ByrdsThereIsASeasonBox.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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" 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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:20, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

The Barnstar of Good Humor

An important letter

Dear roads editor,

You may have noticed some changes at WP:USRD lately. Some of them, like the cleanup templates and the stub templates, have been astounding and great. Unfortunately, others have been disturbing.

This has become evidenced by the departure of a few prominent editors at USRD, a few RFC's, and much fighting among USRD editors.

After the second RFC, many of us found the opportunity to take a step away from Misplaced Pages for a while--as a self-imposed wikibreak, or possibly on vacation.

The result of such introspection was that many of us were placing ourselves in a "walled garden" and on a self-imposed pedestal of authority over the roads department. Also, we were being hostile to a few users who were not agreeing with us.

In fact, IRC has been the main incarnation of this "walled garden." Decisions have been made there to conduct grudges and prejudices against a few valued USRD users with poor justification.

For this, we have come to apologize. We have come to ask your forgiveness.

In addition to this, we hope to work as one USRD team from now on and to encourage cooperation instead of the promotion of interests.

All users are welcome to collaborate on IRC, the newsletter, or anywhere else at USRD.

In the future, please feel free to approach us about any issues you may have.

Regards,

Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 17:15, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

The Mfd discussion on your user page

I have closed the discussion to keep to your user page. I was particularly influenced by the people who thought your page was offensive but nevertheless saw no reason to delete. I certainly did not think it was a bad faith nomination. Most of it is not particularly funny or biting satire. Much of it is offensive. I strongly recommend that you calm it down and concentrate on editing wikipedia when here rather than making a point with your user page. I do not wish to see it come back to MfD. --Bduke 06:18, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Meet the Beatles.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Meet the Beatles.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

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 "my contributions" 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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Rockfang (talk) 12:11, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (File:Squeeze back.gif)

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Squeeze back.gif. 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:DVD-Audio Logo Black.png

File Copyright problem
File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:DVD-Audio Logo Black.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Misplaced Pages:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 18:58, 7 April 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fleet Command (talk) 18:58, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:RollingStones.album.cover.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:RollingStones.album.cover.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.
  • To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
  • If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.


Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 06:28, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Longtimecomin.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Longtimecomin.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Misplaced Pages. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 22:47, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:FresnoRiver.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:FresnoRiver.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created 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 in|article name}} 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly 23:11, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
