WikiProject South Park
I have thought of creating a WikiProject for South Park since it is now near its' 10th anniversary and has more articles than ever. I feel we could all do the following things through this project:
- Cleanup any short/poorly written/unformatted articles
- Merge/lengthen the many character articles
- Improve the South Park main page
I have seen your South Park fan template and wondered if you were interested in joining. If so reply to my talk page and I'll get back to you as quick as I can. Thanks, Mr. Garrison
- I'm glad you'd like to join, if its' okay follow this link and add your name. Below is a little template for the project I made quickly over the weekend.

Thanks for uploading Image:RobCollard.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link.

Ice Hockey Project discussion of hockey player notability and project scope
Please come join the WikiProject Ice Hockey Notability standards for hockey players discussion. I'd like to see input from all our project members who have an opinion. Thanks! ColtsScore 00:19, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi Cs-wolves/Archive 2, as a WikiProject Scotland participant, please check out this this thread and consider adding the bot results page to your watchlist so we can manually update the New Articles page. There are some false results for the first batch, but I'm sure we can collectively tune the rules to improve the output.
If we get enough people watching the results page, we'll be cooking with gas as they say :) This looks like a great helper in finding new Scotland related material. Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 22:31, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
Indy and Franchitti
I think it's best you use the British flag in future, not the Scottish flag. It is stupid to put the Scottish flag for Franchitti and the British one for Wheldon. A decision needs to be made on that page, use the British flag for all British drivers, to tie it in to the rest of motor sport, or separate Indy from it and use the flags of England and Scotland. I.e. not a cross between the two. Thoughts? Alex Holowczak 17:17, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
- Fair enough, I thought you put the flag in in the first place. But irrespective of the country used on ESPN, which frankly has no idea what it's talking about on this issue, surely we should go with the rest of motor racing as a whole and use the British flag for all drivers. The same is used throughout Formula One, for instance. I don't really mind which is used, but the use of both the British and Scottish flags together, at least, until the SNP gets a chance, is wrong in my opinion. Do you agree, and shall I put words to this effect to someone higher up the "chain of command" so to speak in the Motorsports Portal section? Alex Holowczak 18:32, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Isle of Man TT Races 2007
The official race distance for the Sidecar TT Race 'A' and 'B' is official quoted as 113.00 miles and is not 113.19 or 113.20 miles.
The average race speed in miles per hour has always been an integral part of Isle of Man TT Races results since the 1920's and are necessary. For instance, the 130 mph average lap speed has been quoted for John McGuinness. The addition of practice times and average speeds are also necesssary and have always been part of the Isle of Man TT Races.
The addition of practice time for the 2007 Isle of Man TT Races would bring it into general line for current Formula 1 and Moto GP results. Eventually, the style of results for the 2006 Isle of Man TT Races will be edited to reflect the results 1947-1971 and the 2005 TT Races results have been already been partially edited. {Agljones 08:36, 11 June 2007 (UTC)}
Fair use rationale for Image:Larrikin.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Larrikin.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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, 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. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and 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. Rettetast 18:20, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
vandalism
Why have you accused me of vandalism. The airport is on fire. Rolf Mayo 19:54, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Image:Jeep_Glasgow_30.6.07.jpg
I have tagged Image:Jeep_Glasgow_30.6.07.jpg as {{no rationale}}, because it does not provide a fair use rationale. If you believe the image to be acceptable for fair use according to Wikipedia policy, please provide a rationale explaining as much, in accordance with the fair use rationale guideline, on the image description page. Please also consider using {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. Thank you. Bleh999 20:31, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image (Image:Jeep_Glasgow_30.6.07.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Jeep_Glasgow_30.6.07.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 '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 images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 08:03, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Glasgow attack picture
I suppose that would be better if it was clear enough. Taking a picture of it doesn't affect the fair use status though so it would still need a valid rationale. WATP (talk) • (contribs) 20:41, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- Have a look here for an idea. As long as the image meets the criteria it should be fine. With regards to you creating the image, it should still be regarded as fair use since it is basically a representation of the same thing. WATP (talk) • (contribs) 20:56, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Sean Thompson article
A tag has been placed on Sean Thompson, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet very basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}}
on the top of the page and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Sanfranman59 01:25, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Snooker request
As a member of WikiProject Snooker, it is requested that you watchlist at least the following pages:
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Snooker - if the project members do not pay attention to changes at the project page, especially its talk page, effective collaboration will be nearly impossible and the project would eventually fail.
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Snooker/Wanted snooker bios - this is an important part of the project's to-do list.
- Snooker - our main article, frequently subject to vandalism and nonsense edits that (historically) have sometimes taken hours or even an entire day to be fixed
- Snooker season 2006/2007 - another important article
- Snooker world rankings 2006/2007 - another important article
- One or more player articles of your choice that you'd like to "adopt" as a guardian against vandalism, PoV-pushing, etc.
Keeping in touch with the rest of the team via the project pages, and keeping an occasional eye on core articles will go a long way to strengthening the project and protecting the articles. Thank you for your time and attention. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 03:05, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Ice Hockey August 2007 Newsletter
WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear Cs-wolves/Archive 2! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject! From the project, Maxim. New recognized content By Maxim
Article Improvement By Maxim Upon some discussion on the WikiProject talk page, the Article Improvement Drive page was revamped by Krm500 and Maxim. It was renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Article Improvement, and it includes two section. The first section is called articles in dire need of improvement. It list articles, usually important, that are in very poor shape. The second section is called requested help. Users list an article they request help improving a certain article, which will facilitate collaboration, which is the aim of any WikiProject. There is one article currently listed there, Henrik Lundqvist, here. The goal is to at least get it to Good article status. Diacritics By Maxim In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt. Task forces By Maxim This task force was initiated by Krm500. Its current goal is to improve Henrik Lundqvist to Good or Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES. This task force was initiated by Bsroiaadn. Its goal is to improve New Jersey Devils to Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock. Requested Images By Maxim

Request for participation in Asperger FARC :
As a member of Wiki Aspergians, I hope you'll comment on the Asperger's FARC. I am voting to de-list, as I believe the article has taken a drastic POV shift toward pure pathology and away from the dual nature - talent+disability - articulated by the leading RS's of the field. I hope you'll vote whether you agree or not with my assessment :

New recognized content By Maxim Especially due to the featured topic drive, there have been many new featured lists promoted concerning NHL awards. Here's the full list of all the 13 FL's promoted since the last newsletter.[1][2]
There have been no new good articles or featured articles. Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy has been given A-Class status due to multiple issues raised at FLC.
Did You Know? By Maxim
Featured Topic Drive By Maxim Started by User:Scorpion0422, the aim of this drive is to make NHL awards a featured topic. A featured topic is basically a set of very high quality articles (good articles and featured articles/lists). In this case, the topic is NHL awards. Many users have helped, including Scorpion0422, Resolute, Serte, Hasek is the best, Maxim, Croat Canuck, Spike Wilbury, FutureNJGov, and T Rex/Dinosaur puppy. The progress has been very good; there are 12 featured lists promoted, and 2 good articles:
Check the project page if you are interested in helping out. Although it's closer to being done than not, there's still work to be done. The next topic that might be tackled is Stanley Cup, but this remains purely speculative and in discussion. |
