License tagging for Image:Eugeneverkhovsky.jpg
editThanks for uploading Image:Eugeneverkhovsky.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:

editYour RfA
editPlease withdraw your RfA. Most editors who express an opinion on RfAs expect to see at least 2500 edits over several months - you have approximately 20 edits. There is little chance of this RfA passing. Thanks, Gwernol 20:44, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- Your RfA has been withdrawn since it stands no chance of passing. Please do not add it back to WP:RFA.Thanks, Gwernol 21:45, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Please note that since your nomination has been withdrawn, you should not edit it further. Thanks, Gwernol 21:48, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

Request for Participation in Wikipedia Research
editjoeferret,
Your Request for Adminship (RfA) process was reviewed and studied by our research team at Carnegie Mellon University early in our project to gain insights into the process. We reviewed what voters discussed about your case, and what qualifications you brought to the table as a candidate. In total 50 cases were personally read and reviewed, and we based our further research questions in part on your case.
In continuing our research, I would like to personally invite you to participate in a survey we are conducting to get perspective from people who have participate in the RfA process. The survey will only take a few minutes of your time, and will aid furthering our understanding of online communities, and may assist in the development of tools to assist voters in making RfA evaluations. We are NOT attempting to spam anyone with this survey and are doing our best to be considerate and not instrusive in the Wikipedia community. The results of this survey are for academic research and are not used for any profit nor sold to any companies. We will also post our results back to the Wikipedia community.
This survey is part of an ongoing research project by students and faculty at the Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science and headed by Professor Robert Kraut.
Thank you!
