you introduced a ton of material that appears to be directly copied from . As you say you are a Harvard law graduate and the editors of the book are associated with Harvard Law, I am thinking that perhaps this is not a straightforward case of plagiarism / copyright violation, but that perhaps you have permission? (I know John Palfrey, and of coursee he's a friend of Misplaced Pages, so that wouldn't shock me.) If not, I'm afraid we need to delete this.--] (]) 15:49, 27 October 2011 (UTC) | you introduced a ton of material that appears to be directly copied from .

It looks like they must have republished the content in a book, but that doesn't change the fact that they granted a Creative Commons license... I'm not really sure why they didn't CC license the book also, considering that the content (or some version of some part of it) is already free, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to make money off of your content in one venue, even if you've released it freely in another. ] (]) 15:56, 27 October 2011 (UTC) | :That content is Creative Commons-licensed, as you can see in the note giving credit at the bottom of the article and at the (see footer).

Nomination of List of villages in Hinthada District for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of villages in Hinthada District is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of villages in Hinthada District until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. --Rossheth | Talk to me 17:29, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi, can you place your lists in Category:Lists of villages by township of the Ayeyarwady Region? Cheers. Some things, can you greatly reduce the size of the notes section, and widen the coordinate and other columns? Just unlikely they will be filled in the near future. Also I think it might be better if you wikilink the villages to start off with and put them in alpha order by default if this is possible? This way they can be dabbed in the future.. By the end of this I would also like a List of village tracts of Burma..♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:59, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Purrfect, if you could also format the ones you started in the same way this would be great. Yeah Template:Hsi Hseng Township is at TFD too. Not complaining as its ignited my interest in Burma again and doesn't stand a chance of being deleted..♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:50, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
If you could list all your lists under List of populated places in Burma this would be great.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:01, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Only thing is that a lot of the transliterationns differ from those on google and geonames. Like Da Yei Pauk =Dayebauk. The positive thing though is that the settlement do all exist of course! But it will require quite a lot of concentration to match em up. View Dayebauk here on google earth. Looks great.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:12, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Grrr wikipedia is full of irritating people today. Can you AFD List of cities, towns and villages in Burma: A, List of cities, towns and villages in Burma: B and List of cities, towns and villages in Burma: Y and Template:Lists of Burma locations. These lists are now alienated anyway as List of cities, towns and villages has been redirected to list of populated places and your lists. But my db-author tags were removed senselessly.. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:05, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
Have you given up on the lists?♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:10, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
I think I'm yet to see you ever complete a task Jen! You gave up on the Chile dictionary too!♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:50, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Good morning to you,
I write you first to greet you and to wish you a good day, it thrives, generous and full of successes.

It's called Ludmilla Radchenko, and I got to know during his fashion show in my native land. Is a very sweet girl, sweet and friendly, typical of Russian. I'm asking you because I saw that you are a member of the fashion project, and who better than you can bring back on track, I trust you fully. cure them in detail. said thank you in advance that my whole heart, and if you need it for the Italian or the Sicilian, I am at your disposal.

Kootical pic
Hi - I have no objection to Kootical.jpg being deleted. It is a poor graphic and I have no recollection of uploading it. I must have been less than attentive - thanks for bringing it to my attention. Mark 23:16, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

User:Fastily/FfD
Hi Calliopejen1. As you probably know, when nominating files for deletion at WP:FFD using twinkle, it occasionally fails to list the file. Because of this bug, I have set up a program to generate a list of files nominated for deletion without an associated nomination. A few of the files you nominated for deletion came up in the report, so I thought you might be interested in this list. Regards, FASTILY 21:33, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
File:MBD mordechai ben david mbd (47).JPG
Hi there. You tagged File:MBD mordechai ben david mbd (47).JPG for deletion at PUF, but it seems you forgot to actually list the file. Just thought I'd point this out to you. Regards. — ξ 22:07, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
Careful there
Almost everything you've listed in Misplaced Pages:Files for deletion/2011 October 24 was already listed on the 20th. Mangoe (talk) 02:20, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
- The listings seemed to have gotten deleted in a mistaken edit, but I didn't want to restore them in case some had been renominated elsewhere. So I was just renominating them individually. Calliopejen1 (talk) 02:22, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

File:Yagura castle.png deletion
Thanks for notifying me about this file. I updated its 'talk' page, but yes please go ahead and rmove the file. It is redundant. --Ph0kin (talk) 03:41, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Thanks
That was a very good addition you made to the essay about image arguments to avoid. Thanks! By the way, I think you do excellent work in that area. --Tryptofish (talk) 13:41, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Hmm....
In this edit you introduced a ton of material that appears to be directly copied from this book.

(I know John Palfrey, and of coursee he's a friend of Misplaced Pages, so that wouldn't shock me.) If not, I'm afraid we need to delete this.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 15:49, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
