Mario Kart DS

Hello, Charron. As a player of Mario Kart DS online, I was wondering if you would be interested in participating in weekly online tournaments for fun. I have an interest in starting up scheduled games in some way and to gauge interest for the game. If you are interested in this possibility, please e-mail me at KramarDanIkabu@gmail.com with MKDS in the subject line. Thank you for your time. KramarDanIkabu 00:19, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:VinceFFVII.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:VinceFFVII.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 for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. JaGa^talk 20:19, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

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.
