If you are here to register a complaint regarding my edits, before doing so please note:
  1. There is a very clear policy regarding the use of non-free images. This policy is located at Misplaced Pages:Non-free content criteria
  2. Read this talk page and its archives before registering your complaint. It is likely someone has already registered a similar complaint, and that complaint will have been given an answer.
  3. Read the policy
  4. Check and make sure the image has a valid source
  5. Make sure that the image has a valid Fair use Rationale (A guide can be found here)
  6. I will not add rationales for you. As the uploader it is your responsibility, NOT mine.
  7. I do not want to see images deleted
  8. All images must comply with policy
  9. A generic template tag is NOT a valid fair use rationale.
  10. If you're here to whine and complain that But <place image name here> is just like my image and isn't tagged for deletion I will tag that image too, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

hercule

Hello,

I don't contest your decision to not approuve me for using VandalProof. I just would like to know the reason (is it because I want to use it in french wikipedia or for an other reason? If it's for another reason I hope you know my account was renamed recently (I was Hercule bzh). I know than the count edit tools have a problem with this. My contributions in fr are visible with the name Hercule bzh.

Regards

Image deleted on October 2007

Hi, your bot marked the fair use I provided to File:Semprelivremix.jpg as invalid on October 2007, but it didn't notify me about this, so I didn't have the chance to provide the fair use. I've only discovered it today, and now the image is gone, obviously. No problem, considereing that I can just upload it again with a valid fair use, of course. Anyway, I'm just warning you about this, so that other users and their images don't get deleted without a warning. Thank you, Victao lopes (talk) 23:31, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

It wasn't betacommand. 10:07, October 31, 2007 Maxim (Talk | contribs) deleted "Image:Semprelivremix.jpg" ‎ (Deleted because "CSD I7 - Invalid fair use rationale". using TW) Timeshift (talk) 23:49, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
Timeshift9, the issue that was raised was that BCBot tagged the image without notifing the uploader. β 23:56, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
the reason that you did not receive a warning about the image is because you did not upload it. see User_talk:Cesarm#Disputed_fair_use_rationale_for_Image:Semprelivremix.jpg for the message BCBot left the uploader. β 05:51, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Indeed, here's from the file's history:

re: my thread on AN (reverted edit counter tool?)

Hi BC...The IP I'm looking for info on is 150.148.0.27. As I said, he's currently on a 1-week block, but this guy is a thorn in my ample behind, and I'm making a case that his absence would benefit the 'pedia far more than his presence. If I can find out his number of reverted edits compared to his total edits, that case should be MUCH easier to make. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Gladys J Cortez 06:39, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

BC, whatever tool that is, it's wonderful, and I thank you so much for the effort! (I really hope that was, like, one command or simple pre-existing script or something...) Tell me one thing, though, if you will: That "marked reverts" category--does that mean things HE has marked to revert, or things he's WRITTEN that have been reverted? It's the second piece of info I'm looking for, and if he has seriously only had 30 reverts, I will eat a significant article of my own underclothing. If, as I suspect, that category means reverts HE's done, is there a category that tells which are reverts of HIS work? (damn SAVE button...) And if so, which is it? Thanks! Gladys J Cortez 23:41, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
none of those are a list of reverted edits by the user. since the user in question has 5,300+ edits most other tools will not be effective, but I might have one more trick up my sleeve. β 23:55, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
Just to clarify and maybe save you some work: I don't need details about what he's written that have been reverted; I'm mainly interested in a percentage (reverted edits as a percent of total edits). I'm not as much concerned with content as with numbers. And thanks again for all this work you're doing! Gladys J Cortez 05:01, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Adding {{reflist}} and <references/>-2008-02-11T14:39:00.000Z">

Hello !

Sgeureka just suggested me that DumZiBoT could easily check in the edited pages for {{reflist}} and <references/>, and add it. Now, the check is easy, a regex will do; but I'm concerned about where should I add {{reflist}} ?! That is surely not *this* hard, but I know that lately you've been running a task like this: May I ask to see the code ? I'm not willing to use it as a standalone; I'm just willing to add the template to the pages I already edit :)

Thanks !

dont use {{reflist}}, a lot of people dont like it. see noreferences.py β 14:40, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

My account is too new to add the image to the article. (It's semi-protected.) In short while I should be able to use it.--Guywithdress (talk) 02:16, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

the image is orphaned and should be tagged as so. when the image is no longer orphaned you can remove the tag. β 02:17, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Don't you ever call my edits vandalism again. Consider this a civility warning. You should know better than to spend your time biting new users.--Guywithdress (talk) 02:18, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
