Welcome to my talk page. Feel free to leave me messages here.

I have archived discussions from November 2003 through January 2006 and February 2006 through June 2006.

Hello, Tristanb. I've removed Image:Tnzs screenshot.png from your image gallery and replaced it with a link to the image, as it is a copyrighted image that is being used under a claim of fair use. Unfortunately, by Wikipedia policies, no fair-use images can be used on user pages; please see Wikipedia:Removal of fair use images. If you have any questions, please let me know. —Bkell (talk) 03:40, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Yep, that's fine that you've removed that image from my gallery page.
At first read, i thought you'd taken it from the actual article (in which it is being used fairly). If you're on a spree, you may want to more explicitly state that it is User pages that don't allow fair use, and that you're only removing from User pages. - Tristanb 04:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
I thought I did explicitly state that… how would you word what I wrote? I'm not exactly on a spree, but I've been handling a few free-use images each day in this manner for the past few days. —Bkell (talk) 04:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, I should have used a smiley face in my message, it does seem quite accusatory, I didn't intend to be rude. :-D
I just meant maybe explicitly saying that the image will not be removed from any article, but just from the user page. Hearing that an image you've made is about to be deleted can be upsetting, and it can be easy to jump to conclusions without reading the rest of your comment more carefully.
Didn't mean the word "spree" in a negative sense. I just thought if you were copying and pasting the comment to lots of people, you could maybe add that clarification.
But yeah, keep up good work. Tristanb 02:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)


Clockwork Robot

Me again, I put the information on a page and it was deleted off again and re-directed. I think I should include it on the main list of monsters however someone keeps altering the page by re-directing to stuff which dosen't even have the information.

I will try to sort the monster list page. If there are any other ways of getting it on a page please tell me.

Wow, that takes me back — uploading that photograph was my first ever edit to the encyclopedia, before I'd figured out the rules. Thanks for the notice, I've updated the page with a source. GeeJo (t)(c) • 22:43, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

For helping me with image tags and for introducing me to the lofty world of the ~~~~. (Even though that was a while ago.) CliffHarris 00:33, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't remember the source, so you may remove the picture. Ccson 02:47, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

re: Imagewatermark template for Commons images

Thanks for making use of the template; I've been following along, somewhat.

Honestly, I created the template with minimal feedback from the Village Pump, and I haven't even looked at the Commons until very recently (I can't even navigate it), so I have no idea if there would be an equivalent there. Sorry.

Now that we have a good number of these, though, it'll be interesting to see how this is all dealt with. (Especially the User:Kotoviski ones. He seems to have gone off-wiki.) –Unint 03:58, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Please read the note at the top of my Talk page before posting these notices. Adam 08:48, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

It doesn't cause me any distress, but I put the note there to save conscientious people like yout good self from having to post these notices. I uploaded a lot of images in the days before the current policy was in place, and they can now all be deleted without further reference to me. I will change "photos" to "images" to make this clear.

Clockwork Robot

I understand about fair-use images now and I apoligise for any problems. Also I tried to move my information to the list of monsters but it was soon deleted and when I tried to edit I had been blocked. However it soon went off and I can now edit pages (I think it was because they thought I was impostering because of Clockwork Robot/clockworkrobot). However I would like to know who I can talk to about getting my information across.

Thanks again for the information.
