template ads
hi miranda, I was looking at Image:Peru Maps JMK Team.gif and thought it could be used in the template ads, I would add it by myself but I think there says it needs your approval --Andersmusician $ 04:42, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- Too small. I can make it bigger, though. Miranda 04:44, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- I will come up with a new ad. Tell me what you would like for the ad, and I will try to make it. Miranda 06:43, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- great, well I wonder if images from Image:Peru_Portal.png would show properly on a gif file. --Andersmusician $ 16:07, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
- I will come up with a new ad. Tell me what you would like for the ad, and I will try to make it. Miranda 06:43, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: Image for Qxz ads.
From User talk:HiB2Bornot2B:
- I would have appreciated if you brought this issue to me first before making your ad, as a common courtesy. I may make another version of this ad in order to conform to other state projects, such as Pennsylvania.
Miranda, you don't own the ad template, any more than I do. There's no requirement that the various ads match each other, and there's certainly no need for everything to be approved by you. Remember that this is a wiki; add to, modify or remove other people's work as you see fit, but don't hold them back from contributing.
In this case, the source image he used is in the public domain, so attribution is not required. It's encouraged, for convenience purposes, but he was doing nothing wrong by not including attribution; thus insisting you'll have to make another version of the ad, and berating him for not checking with you first is a bad idea. (Attribution is required when an image's license specifies it – as is the case with most Creative Commons licenses – but this is not the case with public domain images).
The image seems to me to be no more confusing or loud than some of your own – and if you don't like it, just edit it to be more subtle. Someone else can always revert your changes if they disagree with them – Gurchzilla 11:48, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Also, since when are ads for pages outside project space not allowed? The only reason we don't have any so far (other than one Portal and one Help page) is that nobody's asked for one. No reason someone can't make ads for something else Gurchzilla 11:53, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Gurch, first, I would have appreciated if he would have asked me if he wanted me to make an ad, before making it, because first, the formatting issues, and second, the wikicode. Second, the source image needed to be sourced in order to see if the banner violated fair use. Third, I haven't seen you creating an ad recently. Fourth, I really don't have time for your "Gurchzilla rah-rah-rah" drama, because I got other things to do. I am not going to waste my time correcting an ad for which a person spent time to create if there is not a blatant fair use violation. Miranda 14:50, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Assume, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that the license the user has provided is correct. At no point did I say "Gurchzilla rah-rah-rah". This is a separate account, one that I'm making edits from today because this is a public terminal; I don't want my real account compromised, but couldn't care less what happens to this one – Gurchzilla 15:59, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, but I can't assume, I have to verify, so that Misplaced Pages won't get into trouble. And, I thought Gurchzilla is Gurch on puberty, hence the comment. Miranda 16:19, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
67.34.213.123
I am the anonymous IP address which added the info th Alpha Kappa Alpha article. I hadn't realized I hadn't signed in before I made the initial edit. I received you message that you have reverted my experiment. I'm not sure what I addded that was experimental or vandalism. Can you be more specific? Thanks.--Ccson 13:08, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Changing the citation date, but I blanked the warning. So, the situation should be fine, now. Miranda 15:04, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- The access date is not just set for the first time the citation is added. An editor can and should change the access date each time the reference is accessed and the editor verifies the information to be still correct. I did link to the quick facts website and that's why i changed the date. If I access another link and the inforamtion is found to be correct, I will change the accessdate since that will be the date of the acesss.--Ccson 16:27, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
Banner, citations
I added the banner because the NPHC is included is a civic org, of which AKA is a member.
What is it about the citations that I changed that you don't like? I thought anyone could update an article? thanksx--Ccson 13:14, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- The banner should be added last, IMHO, because it messes up the format of the citations. Second, when you retrieve a source, like I did on the ninth, you don't change the date of the source when it was last accessed, but, when the source was first accessed and placed in the article. Yes, anyone can update an article, but I am cautious of vandalism by aspirants of the sorority. Thanks for understanding. Miranda 15:04, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- I disagree with you about the access date. The information for the cite web template indicates "accessdate: Full date when item was accessed. Can you point me to the wikipedia policy where you obtained your understanding. Thanks--Ccson 16:33, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
- Don't change the access date for anything. Common knowledge dictates that a file from a specific version can change because new facts are constantly being updated. For example, Friday's version differs from Tuesday's version. I have based the facts on the May 9th date, and changing the access date will not correlate with the facts with the article.
