Hello,

You are invited to join WikiProject Munich!

There are a lot of things to do in this project. From creating new articles to finetuning articles into featured article status.

How can you help?

• You can join a Task Force.
• You can help comform Munich-related articles to Wikipedia Policy.
• You can get free Munich-related images under GNU Free Documentation License.
• You can create and edit of Munich-related articles.
• You can do translations from German Wikipedia to English Wikipedia on Munich-related articles.
• You can help do assessments of Munich-related articles.
• You can help expand articles currently in the Stub-class and Start-class.
• You can help reference articles.
• Since original research is against Wikipedia policy, you can research topics to expand. This means you don't need to know anything about Munich.
• You can help expand stubs and start-class articles and help finetune other articles into Featured article status.

A WikiProject of this nature is very broad. Munich has a rich history in sports, culture, politics along with many more topics. Feel free to help out in your area of interest.

If you want to check the project out you can click the link above. If you want to join the project, you can sign up here.

If you have any questions feel free to contact myself or any other member of the project.

Fair use rationale for Image:Furtado02.jpg

This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Furtado02.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with 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 fair use images 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. Yamla 15:32, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

RE: Image:Furtado02.jpg

You said: "Hey there, I was told to have a fair use rational for this image, but i didn't actually upload this image into Wikipedia. I clicked on this picture a long time ago when i didn't know how things worked, and randomly clicked a button and my user name appeared right next to the edit...so what should i be doing? should i just leave it alone or let someone else edit it..thanks"

Yeah, I'd just leave it alone if I was you. It'll be deleted automatically in a few days. Thanks! --Yamla 21:57, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Nelly Furtado song articles

Your recent contribution(s) to Wikipedia are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at inline citations that best suits each article. Thanks! Extraordinary Machine 22:59, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for providing sources. Extraordinary Machine 19:05, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair use

Fair-use images such as Image:Whoanelly.jpg must have a detailed fair-use rationale for each article they are used in. Additionally, their use must provide a meaningful contribution to the article. Please see WP:FU. Thanks. --Yamla 16:26, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Whoanelly.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:Whoanelly.JPG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Re: 2007 French Open

I know the seeds haven't been released yet, but it's almost a foregone conclusion that Roger Federer is going to be the no. 1 seed. But for the sake of Wikipedia standards and all, I guess you are right... tankman 13:03, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Toronto Raptors FAC

Thank you for your kind comments. If you're interested, you may provide suggestions on how to improve the article here, or simply edit the Raptors article itself. Chensiyuan 03:38, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Spellings of tennis players

As I see you often contribute to tennis articles here, I wanted to draw your attention to a point which is truly disgusting me. I know it's hard for Anglo-Saxons don't have the devoted keys on the keyboard (but also my Italian misses all), but spellings such as Guillermo Ca'''n'''as, Nicole Vaidisova, Albert Montanes, Robin Soderling, Radek Stepanek, Nicolas Massu etc. are not so pleasant. The pronunciation without the correct diacritics gets totally wrong (ie, Radek Štěpánek would be properly pronounced as "Shteh-pah-nek, Canas). If you can, maybe you would add the correct ones if you've time and eye? Thank you for attention. --Attilios 00:15, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
