User talk:Linear~enwiki

Welcome!

Hello, Linear~enwiki, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome!

Also, I wanted to tell you that I have removed the portion about FOX airing The Practice. Your local FOX station may air reruns, but ABC has held the series for its entire original run. Also, FOX does not have exclusive syndication rights; for example, NBC and UPN air it in my area. Visit my talk page if you have any comments about this. ral 315 18:39, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

It's entirely possible that FOX was originally pitched the series; David E. Kelley has done numerous shows with FOX. And their sister network FX airs reruns here. But I'm positive that FOX itself has never aired it. In any event, I hope to see you improving pages here for a long time to come. ral 315 20:10, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

Also, may I suggest that the part you wrote about Season 4 be condensed a lot? It's not really necessary to have such a large portion on just the 4th season. I would be willing to do this, if you'd rather, but my suggestion is to condense season summaries to one or two paragraphs. Again, feel free to discuss this on my talk page. ral 315 20:10, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Practice Cast.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Practice Cast.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eachwiped (talk) 10:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image copyright problem with Image:Wildcats Charest.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Wildcats Charest.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Non-free rationale for File:NewMan4.jpeg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:NewMan4.jpeg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:16, 14 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Linear. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Linear~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
