Landless Workers' Movement

You put an NPOV tag on Landless Workers' Movement; you need to explain on its talk page what your issues are, or the tag will simply be removed. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:01, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)

On removing The free software category

I appreciate the effort you are making to trim down the overused free software category. However, there are a number of non-Free programs available for Linux, such as Applix Word and WordPerfect. That in mind, I have created a new category: Free Linux Software, which will list all of the free Linux software.

I'm working on revising things so that free Linux software points to this category. This allows people to see the libre/non-libre status of a program very quickly. Samboy 04:20, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Share (software)

I see you recently made Share (software), but the only thing there is a category, and so I had to delete it. Feel free to recreate it again later with some content.--Pharos 05:30, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Artrage

Be sure to check and update the artrage "windows-only" entry to windows and mac once the OS X version is released. Kyhwana

Bryce Harrington

Hi -- Since you've worked on the Inkscape article, I thought you might be interested in the fact that the Bryce Harrington article is up for deletion.--Bcrowell 03:41, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Nodezilla up for deletion

The article Nodezilla is up for deletion I noticed, and saw that you helped edit the article. You may want to come and take a look at the deletion process since the project of Nodezilla has some inconsistancies that make it unusual so people are investigating.

If you have any knowledge of this article perhaps you can come and comment, goto the article then click on the deletion link at the top. Thanks, --ShaunMacPherson 08:54, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Scribus screenshot.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Scribus screenshot.png. 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 02:58, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:GPHPEdit-scr-syntax.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:GPHPEdit-scr-syntax.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Misplaced Pages constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 '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. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Skier Dude (talk 06:58, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
