Unspecified source for Image:Branta bernicla2.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Branta bernicla2.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, then 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, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Misplaced Pages:Fair use, 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 images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Misplaced Pages:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

On the commons you linked the wrong image. However, the set you linked is free. gren グレン 09:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Santana

-Johan Santana: Off-hand, how many pitchers, let alone AL pitchers, can you think of that have hit a triple? I apologize for not being the best at writing this stuff, but doesn't that seem to warrant noting? I thought it was quite the feat for a pitcher.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mtcupps (talk • contribs)

Thank you for the tip...however

I have never been advised as such by anyone else, including admin. I have a personal style that may not be for everyone. As for the Sacramento page I would worry a little more about the article itself. I had to remove an ad link for a dance studio and then taged it for speedy removal. If editors spent as much time on the Articles as they do critisizing others, we would have much more accurate articles with far less spam. But thank you for taking the time to contact me.

No you weren't wrong. I just don't have alot of time while I am trying to edit and contribute....and to be honest I've had problems with a few editors in the recent past get very harsh and uncivil with me over wikipedia policy...where they were in the wrong. I do try to add summeries when I have time and can think of the appropriet words. I really should have added "More information" at the very least....but it was late and I was on meds and falling asleep at the keyboard.--Amadscientist 22:35, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Time to delete History section

From what I understand if a section is given it's own page we leave the main article notification for a period then remove it and add to "See Also". Don't you think the page looks odd with a section that isn't even in the article at the top of the page? Perhaps it is time to removes that section as it is empty now. Redirects don't really constitute a section. What do you think? Could use the clean up.--Amadscientist 20:07, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes of course, I did not realize that. Thank you for pointing that out. This surely shows my lack of experiance on Wiki. Got it.--Amadscientist 20:46, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

You must be at SLO.

The battle you have engaged is a bit old, others having taken your position, while yet others oppose. Please see the note on the talk page for the disambiguation page, which I left there but a few minutes ago. William R. Buckley 05:32, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Baseball Content

I saw your post on the baseball project. I like the template and think it can definitely help with those articles. On a related topic, I have been reading wiki for a loooong time. I am just now editing. You can see my first real contributions here and here. I will say that I find the baseball related content on here to be pretty horrendous. There are tons and tons and tons and tons of bad articles. My biggest complaint is that information is being templated out the "wahzoo" and these templates and lists and see also sections are getting out of hand. I see articles like Frank Robinson and my mind goes nuts. I am so hesitant to talk on that baseball project page after the recent spat that broke out there that was about everything but content. Do you have any suggestions? Long levi 07:23, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
