No need to keep html files either in my opinion. Dori | Talk 07:26, Jan 15, 2004 (UTC)

- This one seems to be an entire book. Perhaps it could be moved to Wikibooks if it really is under the GFDL. Although it was uploaded by Isis, which means we might not risk dealing with it. Dori | Talk 18:22, Feb 9, 2004 (UTC)

Note: some of the files I have listed may need to be moved to Wikisource or converted and kept at Wikipedia. Dori | Talk 07:39, Jan 15, 2004 (UTC)

If you think any of the *.html should be kept, please read the discussion of content-type: headers (currently at the bottom of this page, but I expect it to be moved) - IMSoP 00:18, 26 Jan 2004 (UTC)

What are we going to do with these files? I have not deleted them since I was the one that listed them. Is there someone who thinks any of them should be kept? If not, I guess I will delete them since they've been here for a long time. I suspect a couple of them are copyvios anyway. Dori | Talk 15:20, Feb 8, 2004 (UTC)

OK, I deleted some, only one left, which might be useful if it really is under the GFDL Dori | Talk 18:22, Feb 9, 2004 (UTC)

Image:Wold.doc. The contents of the .doc file is on the image description page, and should be moved to wold. - snoyes 19:26, 4 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Listing some images that I uploaded and that have been made obsolete by new Extended image syntax. Larger versions exist, and no pages link to these smaller images. Dori | Talk 06:41, Feb 6, 2004 (UTC)

I deleted some of those images since no one complained. I couldn't delete two of those though, and I imagine it was because of the special characters. Does anyone know what should be done in this case? Dori | Talk 03:48, Feb 11, 2004 (UTC)

I managed to delete them with no trouble. Might be something browser-specific? --Delirium 08:38, Feb 12, 2004 (UTC)

Image:Var_USS_Port_Royal_CG-73.jpg -- was uploaded by be to compare it with the former Image:USS_Port_Royal_CG-73.jpg to finally replace it. Since I uploaded the Var_USS... version you can delete it right away - no voting needed. -- mkrohn 10:24, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)

More thumbnails made obsolete by the new image markup. Larger versions exist, and I've gone through the pages using them to add new markup using those versions directly. Bryan 16:14, 7 Feb 2004 (UTC)
